This statement, uneonected, is well cal
culated to mislead the public mind. What
are the facts in question! They are on
record. My estimates were made out in
detail, item by item, and below The usual
prices, and are fled with tho plans and
contract; and Notwithstanding those esil-
mates exceeded 10000, not one cent is
charged as interest. So you perceive
your correspondent is entirely mistaken

For The Recorder.

Ma. HEARTT: Pcrrciying in he last
number Of your paper. an article purpori-
ing lo'haye been written by j. A. Whit
sin. touching the building Of ihe rev eourt
house and the division Of Orange county,
which communication strongly censures
the conduct Of The commissioners Tor build
ing the court house, particularly those Of
them who reside in town. and either by
design or otherwise, misrepresents me.
Hoping that the honorable gentleman will
eoniine himself 10 the facts in future, il
made known 10 him, have thought pro-
per, in order that justice may be done TO
all concerned, 10 present them 10 you Tor
publication. During the term II which
the order was passed 10 build new court
house, some Of the commissioners mot Of
the town nor is vicini,y.) applied 70 me
10 prepare plans and estimates TO submit
70 their body At subsequent meeting they
were TO have during the term Of the Supe-
nor Court. In accordance with this re-
quest, drew suitable plans for building
Of the description wanted, and made out
estimates in detail, and submitted them 10
a full meeting Of the commissioners on
Tuesday Of March Court. With my
plans they seemed well pleased; so much
so, that they adopted them withouI ate
ration. But my estimates exceeded the
extent of their commission more than
$1,000. and aiicr a rigid examination Of
the estimates, item BY item, they propos-
ed, rifhom a dissenting roiee. that IL
would take the contract al the $4,000, be-
! ing the extent Of their commission, they
would close il with me at once. They all
urged me TO do 50, but declined 70 CON-
J ply with their proposition at that tiEe,
but told them that il they would have an
adjourned meeting the next morning, and
give me time 10 review my estimates,
would then determine. With this sug.
ges,ion they agreed. Al the meeting next
! morning agreed TO take the contract at
! the $4,000; at that meeting two of the
commissioners dissented from what they
had urged the evening before, but express
ed their entire willingness to yield 10 the
majority.

The communication of DIR. S. l.. Holt
appears in to-day's paper; but we regret
that he has not thought proper to comply
with the suggestion in our last, to make
more specific his charges in relation to the
circular issued from IIillsborough.
In his letter TO the editor received last
Sunday, he was greatly misapplied his in
temperate language. We consider our
selves far better judges than he can be, as
to the necessity of excluding communica-
tons for want of room. We received his
communication by the mail on Tuesday
at noon, at which time we had more than
enough copy in hand to fill up the Recor-
der; and when our paper went 10 press on
Wednesday, we had to leave out some
three columns Of matter in type, besides
several communications received before
this came to hand. We crowded in the
notice for meeting at Mr.. Foust's; bu,
we had no knowledge that so much urgent
haste was required in relation to the 9th.
er, There is no necessity, nor have we
any desire, to resort to subterfuges as ex.
cuses for delays in the publication of his
communications; and we think he has as.
sumed for them undue importance in sup.
posing US to be actuatcd by such inauen.

awe have now briefly examined the means. SO
far as we have been able to discover them. bv
which the Liberty party aims to abolish Slavery
For the reasons given, do not believe fhat the
means can accomplish the aims One word as to-
the measures of the Liberty party. Wt'predcted.
in the columns of the Colored American, some
years ago, that this political party would fail, as &c
political party, to abolish slavery Our reason then
was, and now is, that the party must fail 10 abolish
slavery, because it has changed the issue-has for
saken anti-slavery, and adopted for SELF The
party aims at-not the abolition of slavery-but
the possession of office, as its primary object -
abolition is secondary, and is rapidly becoming
tertiary object with them. Office, being the prima-
ry object necessarily obsorbs their greatest labor,
and 'eiat preuentS them from getting into Office, is
the immediate or secondary field of their labors.
"The Wing party, because it has had the good
fortune to do some ant-slavery work-thereby
lorestalling Liberty party work. has come in for
the special favor of the Liberty party. We believe
that the Liberty party men hate Whiggery
than they hate slavery, and they love office more
than they love antislavery.
awe fear these oiice-seeking Liberty men,
We doubt the sincerity of men who can make the
bleeding hearts Of the suffering slaves, and the
sympathies which those slaves excite, a means by
which they shall crafty their vaulting ambition
And we speak in this matter, the views of very
large proportion of the free colored people of the
free states"

POULTRY.

At the late meeting of farmers and others at the
State House in Boston, the subject of poultry was
discussed.
Mr.. Cole, of the Boston Cultivator stated that
the value Of poultry in the United States was, at
the last census $l2,000000. In four of the New
England States the value of poultry was more than
that Of swine. Fowls are as important as hogs,
and should receive more attention. Our agricultu-
raj societies should offer premiums for the best
management showing the largest production in
proportion TO the expense. He spoke of the Bucks
county fowl, and said some capons of this breed
had recently been sold in Boston at So per pair
a shilling, ia sixth part of a dollar,) -. pound
They weighed Ia to 10 lbs per pair. He thought
the Dorkings were on the whole as good as any
breed in the county. The Liberian, or Russian
fowl, with long beard like Jew, are esteemed
good layers-there is only few of the breed in
the county.
Col, Thayer, of Brantree, spoke Of his expert
ence in keeping poultry for the last forty years.
He had kept various breeds of hens--he liked the
Dorkngs. lie thought hens would lay no better
and were even more inclined to sit, if kept without
male. Hens are very profitable. There is more
nett profit in six hens than in COW. When eggs
are cheap, they should be kept till they are dear
lie knew man who made his fortune in eggs -
They are preserved as follows: Take one quart Of
salt and three quarts of lime, stirred up and dis
solved till il is of the consistence of cream ther

That took with silent gratitude,
From the mulberry leaf, her simple food
And shrunk, half scotn and half disgust,
Away from her sister child of dust,
Declaring she never yet could soe
Why reptile form like this should be,
And that she was not made with nerves firm,
AS calmly to stand by a" crawling worni!"
With mute for5earance the silk-worm took
The haunting words and the spurning look,
Alike a stranger to self and pride,
She'd no disquiet from aught beside,
And lived Of a meekness and peace possessed,
Which these debar from the human breast.
Gre only wished for the harsh abuse,
To tnd some way TO become of
To the naughty daughter of lordly man
And thus did she lay noble plan
To teach her wisdom, und to make it plain
That the humble worm not made in vain
plan so generous, doep, and high,
That to carry II out she must even die

May she hear in mind that she walks with pride

MISCELLANEOUS.
THE TRAVELLING TINMAN.
BY MISS LESLIE.

Mr. Warner owned a small farm in the State of
Pennsylvania, not far from Maryland He and his
wife were Quakers. They had one son and two
daughters, whose names were Israeli Amy, and
Orphy.
One beautiful evening at the close of the month
of August, they heard the noise Of tin trumpet.
Soon they saw the cart Of tin pedler rafting down
the hill at brisk trot The tinman came, blowing
his horn, to the steps of the porch. After buying
some articles, the farmer invited him to sit down
and take supper with the family. He accepted the
invitation very readily.
While the peder led his horse into the barn-yard
TO carry him bucket of water FROM the pump, and
to feed him by the light of the moon, the girls went
to the back of the cart, when they were startled at
seeing something alive, moving behind the round
opening of the cover.
In a moment the head of little black child
peeped out of the hole. The girls were so sur
prsed that they could not utter a word The young
negro, afraid OF being seen, popped down his head
among the tins.
"Amy, did you see that !" asked Orphy, in low
voice.
"Yes, did So" replied Amy; what can the
man be doing with that little negro, and why does
he hide it? Let's 60 and ask the child"
No, mo-" exclaimed Orphy, the tinman will
be angry"
"And who cares il he is ?" said Amy she hal

be afraid of him."

and speak; and do not be afraid for nobodys goin,
to hurt thee"
SHOW did thee come into this cart ?" asked Or
ply, "and why does the tinman hide thee? Tel
us all about 1t, and be not to speak loud"
The black child again peeped out Of the hole
and looking round, said, Are you quite sure tn
naughty man won't hear us ?"
"Oulte sure" answered Amy, "but' is thee

From the proof sheets of Headleys Italy and the ITALIANS
now in press.
The pleasure of our passage was much marred
by the loss of man overheard When within a
few hundred miles of the Azores, we were overta-
ken by succession Of severe squalls Forming
almost instantaneously on the horizon, they moved
down like phantoms on the ship. For few mo.
ments after one struck us, we would be buried in
foam and spray, and then heavily rolling on heavy
sea. We however prepared ourselves, and soor
got every thing snug. The light sails were all in
the Jlbs, top-gallants and spanker furled close
the main sail clewed up, and we were crashing
along under close reefed top sails, when man was
coming down from the last reef, slipped as he step
ped on the bulwarks and went over backwards into
the waves. In moment that most terrific of all
