WIRE Fences. Wire fences are now made
and highly approved IN Scotland. Five wire
are used, with oak posts, costing only about q
cents per yard, The top wire is No. 8, and the
others No. ). This fence is said to be cheaper
than one Of boards, or Of posts and rails As
iron wire is becoming cheap and abundant in
this country, we have no doubt it will be used
extensively in this way in our Atlantic cities
and States.

AUDIENCE IIuucHCc, liules ana gentlemen,
prudence. But what is prudence? Not mean
ness-not to possess a niggardly disposition
To be prudent is not TO b. wasteful; but to save
everything you can for your own and others
use-a pin and pCnnY--a crust of bread and
a potatoe-a scrap Of paper and an inch Of
cloth. This disposition is far more removed
from parsimony, and is virtue which allshoujd
appreciate. Il is painful to witness the waste
in some families Large pieces Of bread are
suffered to mould and then given to the hogs
potatoes become sour and are useless, and the
leayings Of Il good meal to-day, are thrown a.
way, when they might answer for tomorrow S
dinner. With such people it is waste, waste,
nothing but waste. Wood is laYishly thrown
upon the fire, chairs and tables are broken,
and from the garnet 10 the cellar, the house
looks as if stray bolt of lightning had been
wandering about.
We love economical people-wc do sincere
ly--and never have we had reason to complain
Of their meannoss. Everything about their
dwellings, looks neat and tidy, and when you
sit down TO meal, you can eat comfortably,
without thinking OF the peck of dirt
Our young men and women miss it sadly
when they eXpend so much upon theft persons.
Every week or two they want something new,
before their old garments are half worn out
They must learn prudence, or want at some fl-
ture day, will sit OH their door steps,

NATIvIsM IN THE REyoLurloN TIE fol-
lowing extract from General Smallwood's in
struclons to his recruiting officers, will show
that Native Amcricanism Is not Il new thing in
Maryland:
"Ihe men are to be recruited by voluntary
enlistments in which case you are to he part-
cAlarly attentive to avoid enlisting deserters
from the British army; nor are you to enrol men
under FIVE feet four inches high nor any but
such as are well-proportoned perfect in their
limbs, and under fifty years OF age and make
it your particular duty to engage young men,
and as many .Ndires as possible; and where you
enlist Europeans, be cautious to inquire into
their character, occupation, place Of abode, and
every other circumstance that may tend to OBJ
viate an imposition, for many of this class of
men make practice Of entising, aciih no other
oic'c but 10 go c6 ,ciM the money"

THE TARIFF.

Annexed we give the resolutions of State Con-
vention holden in Pennsylvania recently, and COM
posed principally of Locofocos. The resolutions
indicate ground for hope that the Pennsylvania
Representatives in Congress will go against any
material alteration of the Tariff of 1912. But we
shall soon see how it is.
The STATE TARIFF CONVENTION which recent
y assembled at IIollidaysburg (Pa) adjourned af-
ter a session of two days twas chiefly composed
of members of the Democratic party, and its pro-
ceedings were conducted in the main with decorum
and unanimty A series of resolutions was adopt
ed, of which the following of the most marked
interest, as showing the sentiment of the Pennsyl-
vania Locoocos with regard to the assault about TO
be made by the Locofoco Administration upon the
Tariff of 1912:
RESOLVED, That the State of Pennsylvania is deep
y interested in the maintenance and preservation
of the protective policy afforded by the existing
Revenue Tariff
RESOLVED, That the people of this State compre-
bend the value, understand the Importance, and are
pledged to the support and cannot be seduced into
the abandonment or betrayal of that policy, which
in the brief period of three years has terminated
the almost Responding energies and restored the
PROSTATE credit of this Commonwealth.
Resolued, That we are opposed to a horizontal or
twenty per cent. dd ualorem Tariff, inasnuch as it
neither affords fair, Just, nor adequate protection to
many of the great interests of the State of Penn
sylvana nor can it afford revenue sufficient to de-
fray the expenses of the Government economically
administered.
ReSolred, That the Tariff of 1912 has yielded
sufficient revenue to defray the expenses of the
Government economically administered, and has
afforded "fair and just protection to all the great
interests of the whole Union, embracing agricul
ture, manufactures the mechanic arts, commerce,
and navigation"
ReSolccd, That justice and sound policy forbid
the Federal Government to repeal, or in any way
materially alter or modify the Tariff of 1912 so
long as the same yields sufficient revenue to defray
the expenses of the Government.
Resolved That this Convention therefore, res
pectfully demand at the hands of the Congress of
the Union that general protection which is their
Inheritance; that the existing system of revenue
having fulfilled its great object it is highly impor-
tant that the laws on such subjects as the Tariff
should be permanent in their character, which would
be sure guaranty to the enterprise of the country
and the investment of capital.

have dared to urge works of Internal Improvement
upon the favor of Congress Some of them doubt
less were greatly rejoiced when John Tyler Uetocd
an appropriation bill for improvements of the nav-
CATION of Hudson River and Lake Champain. And
now what do we sec? The improvement of the
Mississippi and Ohio rivers-thc deepening of the
mouth of the Mssssppl-tho union of the Missis-
sppi River and the Northern Lakes by ship ca
nal, and the covering of the Western waters with
lighthouses naval defences, marine hospitals, &c.
&c, are all declared to be National improvements
which call for appropriations by Congress- Nay
more: by the twelfth, sixteenth and seventeenth
resolutions Congress is called upon to aid railroads,
extend the magnetic telegraph, and protect the
plantations on the Mississippi by throwing up en-
bankments to shut out the water of the river. These
are great strides for Southern men to take towards
Internal improvements, and indicate, at least that
their conscientious scruples are not entirely proof
against the demands of their interests. If Con.
gress is to go into these measures of Southern and
Western improvement, all we ask is that other sec
tons of the Union may be treated with the same
liberality: when every other section of Government
lands is offered as donation towards Western and
Southern Railroads or Magnetic Teegraphs, we
demand that like liberaty shall be extended to
Northern enterprises of the like kind. Either this
must be done, or the Government must adopt the
sounder and better Wing policy of distributing the
proceeds of the Public Lands among the States, to
be by the States expended for internal improve
ments. We shall rejoice to see the South and
West literally treated but to rob the other States
for the exclusive benefit of these sections, is more
than the North ought to submit to-

THE XXIXth CONGRESS.

On Monday last the first session of the 29th Con-
gress commenced. Another week will give the
organization, the message and the committees, from
all which the policy of Mr.. Folks administration
will be measurably indicated. The administration
commences with moortos in both Houses and an
"unit cabinet" if its organ is to be believed on
the last head it has The poocr, therefore, to do its
own will; all the responsibility for its dongs,
whether for good or evil, the Locofoco party must
bear We do not speculate as to the course to be
taken upon the Tariff the Currency, Internal I'm
provements, and Foreign Relations-albeit the lat
ter seem to be so entanged as to require unwonted
wisdom and dscrotion for speculation would be
useless: but this we say-Let the people watch
this administration and this Congress let them be
we'll informed of the conduct Of their rulers and
representatives, and thus be prepared to hold them
to a rigid responsibility in the coming elections

N. Y. FARMERS CLUB.

AT the meeting Of the Club on the l6th the fol-
lowing conversation took place concerning pota.
toes
Mr. Coppinger said that Stacked lime preserved
his potatoes.
Nh .4ddms-Agreed. A correspondent of the
Evening Mail says: 81 am almost certain that the
disease is caused by parasta fungus, the Acldium
Bunii described III Lamarck and in Decandicles
Synopsis Plautarum."
Col. Clark L reiterate the experiments which
have tried on the disease. The first was by a weak
solution of the chloride of lime. ID, a saturated
solution of the same. 3D., pure quick lime. Pota-
toes in the first shrunk-in the third shrunk con
sideraby- and in the second remained plump
These potatoes when boiled, were good all the
diseased specs, from the size of pea to that of
my thumb-na came out of the potatoe The dis
ease is undoubtedly fungus, and the saturated solu
ton, No. ., destroyed it. With powerful micro
scope, did not discover any insects.
Mr. Wakemdn--The London Farmers Magazine
states that salt and lime deemed capable of pre-
venting curing the potato disease

stock Ct potatoes, and lately found some rotlng-

A CRAZY FARMER.


Among other places which we visited during a
ralnble last summer in Massachusetts, was the mag
nifcent Asylum for the Insane, at Worcester. 1t
is still under the superintendent OF Dr. Wood
ward, one of the most enlightened and benevolent
men of the are; end 10 whom the country is great
W indebted for an amelioration of the condition OF
the insane, and introducing kind system of treat.
ing these unlortuml es, in place of the harsh and
cruel usage to which they were formerly the suf-
ferng, and, in many instances, the loathsome OBJ
iects One of the best means he finds for this pur-
pose, u.s. to employ the males on the farm attached
to the hospital. As an evidence Of the safety OF
this method, he has repeatedly trusted four hOmi-
cides to work together in the same field, with axes
or scyhes in their hands, and the slightest accident
or i'll temper or disposition TO do harm, has never
been manifested by them. The farm is of consid
cradle extent, and is almost entirely cultivated by
the inmates Of the Asylum.
Among his patients, Dr. W. had one who be-
came exceedingly ambitious of farming upon his
own hook. AT length the Doctor good humoredly
yielded to his opportunities, and gave him posses
sion of field in the rear of the hospital, on which
to expcnd his eccentrjcjes. The field was in grass,
and the surface Of it slightly descending from the
rear of the buildings. Near the sides Of these he
constructed little ponds into hch he drained the
water from the roots, and the urine from the water
closets, let it stand and well anal gamate few days,
and then he conducted this liquid, quite evenly, by
means Of narrow, shallow bitches, over all his field.
The result was, that this field yielded SIX cuttings
of grass of about one ton each per acre making
six tons per acre during the first seuson SO
much for crazy mans farming. All we can add
Is, that we wish there plenty more such in the
country.
