WHAT A FARMER MAY BE.

If may be permitted 10 advance an opln.
ion.l will say that judging from daily obser,
vation, it would seem that many believe
the exercises Of mental and physical pow
ers have no connection in business OF nus
bandry, that our fathers and grand-fathers
thought all that was necessary TO think upon
the subject, and thai nothing remains iol lbs
10 do but work--wi,hou,
ever thinking that we have power {"
think.
Therefore, if we would lay "frm basis
on which to build up their minds in wisdom
and knowledge" we must first convince
them that the course pursued by their faith
ers and grandiathers in relation to husband
~, is by no means the right course.
Convince them that IN general a small
farm is better than large one.
Convince them that little well titled is
better than much half titled.
Convince them that two loads OF manure
is better than one, and every load judlcj-
ciousIy applied is better than a silver dol,
lar.
Convince them that three good cows are
better than half dozen poor ones-so o
all other stock.
Convince them tina, two blades OF gras
may easily be made 10 grow, where only
one grew before.
Convince them that experiment is III
mother of improvement and improvement
the true source Of wealth.
Convince them of these simple truths
and induce them to practice accordingly
and the work is done.
You will then bring mind and body t.
act in unison. You will elevate the hus
bandman to his natural sphere in the seal
of existence. You will place HIM in tn
road to higher erninence. He will think 70
himseIf--he will be learned--he wll b.
wise--he will be wealthy and influential.

ton OF men, determined to support him in all his
principles, views and measures-because they are
his then he has party, and !, for one,
trust he never will have party. Others, how
ever, go by the oracular authority of Burke, who
declares that in free country every man must be-
long to party. For any to acknowledge that he
belongs to no party is disgracefu and the disgrace is
tenfold increased when it is said that the Chief Ma
gistrate Of nation cannot boast the adherence Of
party. Giving to Burkes authority all the respect
due to it, acknowledging the truth of his doctrines to
be in this instance indsputable but at the time
understanding the term party he defines it, the
consequence must be that the President must have
party to support him in all his important measures,
even if now there be not body of men in either
House of Congress, who nominally pledged to his
Administration. OF this result there be doubt
and judging of the future by the past for one, am
prepared to support the measures of his Adminisra-
ton. He must wander wide of the track he has hi
therto steadily pursued before shall oppose his acts
in the Presidency merely because he did not receive

FOR THE MADISONIAN.

FOR THE MADISONIAN.
The present is deemed peculiar epoch in our an
nails, when in the words of the great defeated, the
President is without party, and the parties without
President. There is party no doubt opposed to
the present Administration, composed of the band,
whose sympathies enlisted in the of car
ryng out all the projects conceived by the ambition OF
their acknowledged leader His recklessncss led him
too far--and in the execution of his grand master pro-
ject, irritated beyond pacabity that he could not
succeed in putting into operation the primum mobile OF
all the machinery his genius had invented to effect
the great object of his own elevation, he has pro-
claimed himself the foe, till DEATH of the whose
conscientious firmness thwarted his schemes. From
his sworn adhercnts, through veal woe, whose
faith is pinned to his sleeve, and whose modicum OF
fame or power must depend his success, ex-
pec nothing ese than that they should echo his sem
timents and reflect his enmties Passive tools of his
ambition, such is their vocation. These form a
party opposed to the present Chief Magistrate and
if they are without President de facto or in posse
they can boast one who has long filled the station in
DESIRE They cannot complain--they constitute a
party in the narrowest sense of the term; they are
the blind followers of one man-the determined abe

l. With view to reduce the expenses of the reg-
ments of dragons, far may be consistent with
their efficiency the number of horses to be hereafter
allowed for each troop or company is fixed at forty
for the enlisted Of each troop besides those
quired for musicians and farrers, and for the
commissioned staff.
Whenever several troops are serving within dis
tances convenient for the purpose the surplus horses
beyond the number herein prescribed, in any troop,
to be transferred to any other troop that may be
deficient.
2. Any other surplus horses that cannot be thus
transferred wherever situated, will be turned over
to the Quartermaster's Department as soon as cir
cumstances will permit.
3. No commissioned officer will be allowed to re-
tain public horse, or appropriate one to his own
use, except for the transportation of his necessary
baggage marches; when horses will be assigned
by the Quartermaster if no other of transpor
tation are furnished.
4. The surplus horses will be sold on the spot, or
at convenient markets, as may be most advantageous
to the United States.
S. Should any of the troops of the second regi-
ment Of dragons now in Florida be ordered to the
West, the commander of the Army in that Territory
will give directions that their surplus number be
turned over to the Quartermasters Department for
sale, at such place as he shall deem expedient.

consequence of these instructions will nfan-
try, light infantry, riAemen, and will also be duly
exercised mounted dragons, as to be ready at
any time to resume their places in the ranks

MEssERs. GoGGIN, GRANGER & CO

MESSERS. GOGGIN, GRANGER & CO.
These gentlemen, and a few other Clay men,
have taken occasion, within the last few days,
to testify their obedience to the GENERAL Or
DERs" issued by the Great Retired previous to
his evacuation of the city, enjoining his follow
ers (they DiU follow soon) to omit no opporlu-
nifty to wound the Administration, or strike
at the Madisonian. As to Mr.. Goggn,
we do solemnly asseverate that we were
not aware that such man was in Con-
gress. If we had ever heard of him before,
it had escaped our memory, and when we saw
his name in the report our first impression was
that some one from the gallery had burst upon
the House. We presume he never will be heard
of again, at least after the 4th Of March next,
when the general sweep" of that party is to
take place. AS for Mr.. Granger, he will be
heard of again. AS faithful journalists, it will
be our duty to give faithful and minute history
of his official conduct while acting as Post
master General.
In relation to our "war article" about which
so much has been said, we have only TO request
the constituents of these braue Representatives
to remember it, and think about it, now and
hereafter We ask them to think of our relations
with Great Britain, and the unworthy conduct
of their public servants. Whether we have
war or NOT there is nothing to justify such con-
duct, and they must answer it at the bar OF
public opinion. But if there should be a war
a war at no remote period-they will inevitably
reap the excavations of the avhole country, and
of posterty.
