AGRICULTURAL LETTER FROM
GEN. WASHINGTON.

We are indebted 10 the kindness of an
old friend for the following valuable docu-
ment ; valuable not only because of the re-
vered source from which it emanates, but
because it affords many excellent lessons
from an able and practical farmer: it is
strongly characteristic of the American hero
We see here the exercise in private life of
that attention to detail, that inhexbIe devo-
ton to order and discipline, whichso eminent-
ly mark the public character of Washington.
No one can read this letter without seeing at
once that the writer was an industrious,
sound, practical farmer. He whose ndom-
liable energy gave freedom to world, did
not esteem the most minute details of agri-
culture unworthy his attention.
twill probably surprise the reader to find
Gen. Washington insisting upon the use Of
harrows and cultvators in the cultivation of
his corn; this we have been accustomed to
plume ourselves upon as much more mod
ern invention.
The letter, directed to his overseers, is
taken from the manuscript copy in Washing.

them; receive money and pay it and in
general to do those thirgs which do not APP

sent my nephew, Mr.. Howell Lewis, (who
lives with me here) to attend to them until

ton in these matters. You will therefore
pay due regard to such directions as you may

COINS-THEIR HISTORY

The precious metals, by reason of their dura-
bility, their uniformity of value and quality in
all countries, and the convenience with which
they may be kept and handled, make the best
standard by which to estimate and compare the
value Of commodities, and to measure the obi.
CATION of contracts--that is TO say, they make
the best money. Coming, or the conversion of
those metals into convenient and uniform pie
ces of various sizes, stamped with known and
authentic signs SO as to be easily recognized and
safely depended on by all, both the ignorant and
the skillful without imposition or mistake, al
ways engages the early attention, and is gener-
ally claimed as the exclusive prerogative of
government. And as it is neither possible nor
polite, entirely to exclude the circulation of
foreign coin, it is part of that prerogative to
limit and sanction such circulation, and to reg
ulate the value Of such coin in terms of the do
mestc currency. Where government does not
exercise this prerogative, trading people will
adopt the use of such money whether of indi.
vdual or foreign coinage, as circumstances or
their own convenience dictates.
The possession of extensive gold and silver
mines' after the discovery of America. enabled
the Spanards to produce an abundant supply of
their national coinage, which by the energy of
commerce, was soon circulated in large guam.
titles, among the European nations and, in the
English Colonies OF North America, became al.
most the sole metallic currency, Hence the
Spaniard's dollar became by degrees to be tacit-
ly recognized in this country as the monetary
standard in business transactions.
tits true the English denominations Of pounds,
shllings, and pence were still preserved in the
keeping of accounts. but the value of these de-.
nominations (being merely icttious,) differed
in the different colonies, and they were always
referred, in exchanges, to the Spanish dollar,

Culture OF WHEAT.

A very interesting article has been pub
lishcd in the last number of the English
Quarterly Journal of A agriculture, on the
proper time for cutting wheat, and though
this may not be the most suitable period OF
the year to bring such an article before the
public, yet, as it contains information for the
miller as we'll as the farmer, it may be as USE
full now as at any other time. 1t may also have
some influence in determining the proper Pc
Rod of sowing wheat, as we'll as the most ju-
dcous mode of cultivation, that would be
likely to secure the crop from disease and
vermin. The article referred to, is the Re-
port of an experiment, carefully made by an
experienced practical agriculturist, J. Han
nam, Esq, of brighton, England, and is so
minute in every particular, as TO be perfectly
satisfactory, which is seldom the case in re-
ports of agricultural experiments. could
not presume to trespass on your columns with
any more than extracts from the report. Mr.
Hannah had five different cuttings of wheat
in the same field, the same variety of grain
and the soil of the same quality, as follows

No. 2.-Reaped August 10Th; stacked August3 st

No. 5.-Reaped Sept 9th; stacked Sept 10th.

No. was green, the grain only fully form

was full, but coarse. No. l and 2 were fin

had shrunk some. No. was unexceptiona

whether it is profitable to cut wheat fort

experience, l would recommend cutting be
