HOME LEAGUE.

This is the new tangled name which the old
class of American System mengers have devils
ed to cover the taxation of the great body of the
people to benefit their own as a privileged busI-
ness. The country is now to have this home
league of log-rolling interests embodied, and
active agents and orators every where employed
to enforce on.the country the idea that it is nds-
pensable that the great mass Of the people
should submit to high taxation on every article
which they receive in return for their exports
abroad, that the manufacturing classes may be
enabled to extort high prices for all they bring
into the market, to supply that portion OF for
eign commodities which the high tariff may ex-
clude. In aword, the iniqutous system OF
monopoly, revived by unequal and unnecessary
taxation, and to the general oppression OF the
poorer classes, is to afford protee etion-that is,
increase the wealth Of. the rich. -
This home league is now to take the position
in politics for Federalism, which the league
under the Bank OF the United States recently
held This ptaianx can 70 longer rally under
the cover of the great money corporation: Il,
with its allies, has become too odious and ;inta-
nous, from the frauds and misch;eis perpe:.a-
ted under the "creda sysLeau." The maGulsctu-.
ring system is now to take the lead under al its
imposing and deeeitful phrases ofsssatec.ion Of

livelihood which was refused to their legitimate
|exertions."
I If this be true in England, how much more
true is it in this country The rush for learned
professions is greater The qualifications is
generally less, and the failures and disappoint-
ments are consequently greater. Agriculture in
particular, feels the effect of such yitlated SEN
timent. The law in particular, has been called
the road to preferment. We admit it and when
young man is qualified to take high rank in it.
it is source Of profit and honor but for the hum
bier aspirants to that vocation, it is too often the
road to ruin Itis.never the road to peace and
happiness. If, instead ofpursuing. the vain shad-
ows of ambition, more educated yourg men
would fall into the business Of agriculture, and
would bestow thought as welfas labor upon it,
we should soon see the beneficial consequences
of it.
The subject of these remarks, is to try and
get up spirit favorable tc the formation Of So
ceties and Fairs in our section of the country.
With such soil, and with such industrious
habits as we have, such establishments could
but have the very best effects Let some of our
leading men put the ball in motion, and we
doubt not of good success. The founder of
good permanent Agricultural Society would
observe the thanks Of the community

dent interest amongst the people. Improvement
of land-improvemen in stocks as well as an
Improvement in the modes of cultivation are be-
ginning to be quite observable in many parts of
the state. Weintend to give our readers the
accounts published a few weeks ago, of the pro-
ceedings of an Agricultural Society with its
Cattle show, it's fair and its festival at Rich
mond. These proceedings shows that there are
some .hienminded and liberal individuals-.-of
great intellect and high character, who look up
on the cultivation of the earth as the post of
honor, and that distinction in this art, is at least
the most pure and solid fame, that man can en-
ioy. 1t is fame acquired and enjoyed without
envy from others, and without any structures of
our own conscience. 1t behooves every we'll
wisher his country to give currency and weight
to these opinions Instead of trying to get your
sons into the professions of Law, Physic and
Divinity, which are already crowded, let them be
reared to the idea that Farming is the most uSe-
fuL most intellectual, and certainly the most hap
pu pursuit thatman can engage in. The follow
inc remarks on the disposition to crowd the pro
fessions is taken from an ableperiodical of Great
Britain, and while on this subject, we commend
it to the consideration of all who are about to
make selection of an occupation.

IMPORTANCE OF Coon SEEDs.-It is of the
greatest Importance to have good, pure, strong
seed for sowing 1t is vain to manure and culti-

primary and vital step is not taken
Let our Agricultural Societies offer premiums
for the best seed wheat, barley, oats, &c, thatis
presented for exhibition at the annual fairs next
fall. BY SO doing the bessseed in the different
countries will be known, and farmers will soon
abandon any kind and take that, that has been
proved to be superior and prolific. BythismeasS

of our.grain crops can be very much increased.

The sagacity of the Mammoth Elephant, 9who

displayed itself during his late visit to- Rlchmand
and Petersburg Whilst the cayalcade was
crossing the bridge over. the James River, the,
Elephant quietly placed his foot apon its floor,
but not satisfied with the shaking of its timbera,
he withdrew from it, and Immediately descended
to the river, for the purpose Of swimming across.
On a sign, however, from his rider, he stopped
took him up with his proboscis, placed him on
his neck, and then swan across the river. AT
Petersburg, he was chained with sone leg to q
post, in Powelrs stable, which was consumed:
by fire. AS soon as the flames began tospread,
the animal finding his quarters most unconfor-
table, exerted his enormous strength, pulled up
the post which had been rammed down in very,
hard ground, released himself from adurance

distance, and then quietly turned round to wit
ness the progress of the confagration. ~. zs 81
