Quoted from the Pool Of Siloatn, which is
few PAGES above. 1t was not without emo>
ton that we descended the steps Of the foun-
tain, worn and polished by ages, and seat

delicious shelter from the burning MONDAY

waters of Sloan that go softly, and drink.
ing, with the palm of our hand, from the
refreshing and limpid stream.
AS the Arab women of the valley came
down to fill their pitchers, we remembered
that the daughters Of Judah frequented il
two thousand years ago; that kings and pro-
phets have drank Of its consecrated waters
and that perhaps Jesus and his disciples of
ten repOsed on these very steps in thu
course Of their walks about the city.
To describe the view before us-the pat
to the fountain is seen above the Pool o.
the right, and the fguers are descending il
= steps under lis arch down to the wateI
which flows out by small orlfce into tn
square pool, and thence By channel inl
6 the valley below, as before stated.
The remains of the pillars at the sid,
and in the basin, seem to indicate that, at
former period, il must have been wholly
partially covered; and it has been suppose
that this is the "Bethesda," with FIVE porcI
y es, where at certain hours an angel, ACCORD
ing TO The popular tradition, troubled Il
, waters, which were then supposed to posses
/. healing power. This receives some coul
tenance from the fact that there is a sing,

many travellers, and lately witnessed BY D
Robinson, beyond this there is nothing

tanned by the persevering research of D
Robinson, that the water is brought to IL
Pool from tDat of the Virgin, higher up Il
valley, by means Of a channel cut throug

SUCCESSFUL CULTURE or TURNIPs.-lt IS
face familiar to most farmers, that when the
soil is heavy newly cleared land is finely
adapted TO the raising of the common fat
turnip; but that after few years, this quail
ity seems to disappear, owing chiefly as is
generally supposed, to the Tayages of the
IuTnip hy. A farmer in the western part of
this state, entirely obviates this difficulty by
a very simple expedient His farm is hea>
w fertile soil, and though well adapted to
most farm crops, it appeared to be entirely
untitled to the turnip, like all others Of a
similar character. The successful mode he
adopted is as follows: After having plow>
ed aud narrowed bis ground, and reduced
it to a 6ne filth, he spreads over the SUR
face several inches OF old straw, which is
suffered to lie few weeks. Just before
sowing time, it is burned, the surface is
narrowed, the seed soWn and brushed in.
In this way, he uniformly obtains the finest
crops. He ascrIbes his success to the des>
truction Of the insects BY FIRE; but what
ever may be the cause, the practice is we'll
worthy Of trial by all possessing land Of a
similar character.

AMERICAN commerce. WITH AFRICA
Com. Skinner, commander of the naval for
ces on the Coast of Africa, writes to the
Secretary Of, the Navy, dated Cape Palmas,
March 10, ls45.
"From the most authentic sources within
my reach, it appears that our commerce is
rapidly increasing. 1t is manifest and ad
mitted on all sides, that so long as protec-
ton is afforded by the presence of squad
ron, il will go on increasing in extent and
profit. Since the chasaisement inflicted on
the people Of Baribee, the natives stand in
fear of our power, and the American mer-
chants now trade in security at places where
previously 10 that event, they were deferred
from entering from fear Of The ireacherous
character of the natives. A brisk and lu-
crative commerce is carried on IN ivory, cam
wood, palm oil, hides, and gold dust, receiv.
ed in exchange for various articles, the
growth or manufacture Of the U. States.'
