The bone-earth may be estimated at one half
the weight. 1t is peculiar phosphate of lime,
containing parts of lime to parts of phosphoric
acid. great part of the value of bone as a ma
nure depends on its cartilage. The animal part
of bones being one third of their weight, the am
monla is equal to to 10 times that of COW dung.
1t we regard the salts only, 100 lbs. of bonedust
contain &c times as an equal weight of COW dung.
Such statements, while they express the chemical
facts, are almost, if not quite, supported by esti-
mony of those who have, in practical agriculture,
applied these concentrated animal manures |, is
common opinion that bones from the soap-boil-
ers have lost portion of their animal matter 1t
is erroneous. Boiling, except under high pres
sure, extracts very little of the gelatine, and not
all the fat and marrow.
Heads and shoulder-blades, and the smaller
bones, still contain after boiling, l-2 per cent Of
fat and tallow. If the phosphate of lime of such
bones is dissolved out by the acid, the animal por
tion remains with all the form and bulk of the
bone. Bones which are offered in the market.
are quite as rich in the elements above stated. as
are unboiled bones. The phosphate Of lime is rem
dered quite soluble by its combination with pela.

Spring is Coming.
BY JAMES BACK,

h,
Who was deaf and dumb from his childhood.
Spring is coming Spring is coming!
Birds are chirping, insects humming,
Flowers are peeping from their sleeping,
Streams escaped from Winters keeping,
In delightful freedom rushing,
Dance along in freedom gushing,
Scenes, of late in deadness saddened,
Smile in animation gladdened,
All is beauty, all is mlrth,
All is glory upon earth,
Shout we then with Natures voice.
Welcome Spring Rejoice Rejoice.
Spring is coming! come, my brother,
Let us rove with one another,
To our well remembered wildwood,
Flourishing in Natures childhood;
Where thousand flowers are springing,
And thousand birds are singing;
Where the golden sunbeams quiver
On the verdure-g -girdled river;
Let our youth of feeling out,
To the youth of Nature shout,
While the waves repeat our voice,
Welcome Spring Rejoice Rejoice!

We Will remember YOU, Henry
Claw

The eloquent address of the Clay Clubs Of New
York. to HENRY CLAY, thus concludes -" And
therefore, we will remember you, HENRY CLAY,
while the memory Of the glorious or the sense of
the good remains in US, with grateful and admi-
ring affection, which shall strengthen with our
strength, and shall not decay with our decline
We will remember you in all our future trials and
reverses, as him whose name honored defeat and
gave it glory which victory could not have
brought We will remember you when patriotic
hope rallies again to successful contest with the.
agencies of corruption and ruin; for we will new
er know triumph which you do not share in life,.
whose glory does not accrue to you in DEATH We
will remember you while national peace and pros
perity continues and when the war clouds now
darkening and muttering over the horizon have
risen to overcast the clear and placid sky ye, above
us, and have bmst over the whole land, the peo-
pie will remember you too and all win remember
you when the bloodhounds SO long baying on our
track, and the wolves now bowling around our
fold, shall have rent their prey, where the vultures
are already screaming for the offal. We will re-
member you,. whenever we meet again in the
mighty gatherings of the faithful, and in the hap
piness of our homes. We will remember you
through life, and we will not forget you at the
gates OF death,-t.us everywhere and at all times,

our purest Thoughts, gratefully cherishing your
name and deeds, and as now and here, invoking
blessings IN you and yours forever"

NJ. Kellogg, the Buckeye Orator, tells story
of a drunkard in Ashtabula, Ohio, who, in fit Of
iderium tremens, rushed into the street, and meet
ing the Mayor, demanded of his Honor warrant
to arrest the Devil The Mayor refused the ma
MACS request, but wildly sezing him by the throat
he demanded warrant, or he would tear the heart
from his body. The Mayor seeing how it was. to
appease him, granted the following warrant which

The poor demented man seized the warrant and
hurried away, feeling as if half his troubles would
soon be at end. Descending into the black re-
gions of despair with an old Bible under his arm,
he commenced his Herculean task of arresting the
old Evil One himself and all his imps who had so
sorely afflicted him. Some resistance was made
by the inhabitants of the neither world, but soon
they became frightened, ran away, aid left the
birthstone coast entirely clear The maniac as
eended from the dark abodes, feeling as if he had
gained great victory, and as he was walking
along the streets of the Borough in triumph, he
met Presbyterian minister who accosted him
very politely and inquired after his health.

The Great Lakes.

A writer in the Cincinnati Atlas (says the New
York Evening Pos.,} furnishes some interesting
particulars of the vast extent Of our great North
ern Lakes. 1t appears from narrative of profess
sor Drake, who visited these lakes last summer,
that they extend over nearly eight and a half de-
grees OF latitude in breadth and sixteen degrees of
longitude in length The extent of their surfaces
is estimated at $4,000 square miles; and the area
of country drained by them, is computed at 4oO,-
600 square miles.

Agricultural Value Of Bones.

Many farmers are surprised that any substance
so apparently destitute Of nutrtiye matter as bone
dust, should be capable of effectng such won
derful results" The mystery however, is easily
explicable, for instead of being composed Of sim
pie, amort substance, as many suppose and con-
tend, it consists of three distinct and highly valu-
able ingredients, viz cartilage, bone-earth, and
carbonate of lme-all Of which are essentially
concerned in the production and maturation OF

What am L?

We think Dow, Jr. has succeeded in answering
this question about as satisfactorily as any other
searcher into the mysteries of life, with whom we
have ever come in contact. His definitions may
not be quite so classical or polished as many 9TH
against him on the score of accuracy. Hear him.
"When ask myself the question, What am Il
it puzzles me to answer it. Materially speaking,
am sort of increased nonentty-a small barrel
of unstrained oil of nothing, thickened into SUBJ
stance by accidentally coming into contact with a
cold, congealing world Chemically speaking,
am a compound of phosphoros gas, and atmos-
pheric wind-as most of you have doubtless, long
ago dscovered. Mechanically speaking, am an
old clock, made, wound up and set in motion some
several years ago by the great Ciockmaker of the
Universe. 1t was made to run 80 years, at least;
and if Fate and Fortune will keep my inner works
in order, shall expect to keep going till my
weights have run the full length of their cords-
Morally speaking, am an equal mixture Of vice
and virtue; kind of vinegar and molasses mess
So nicely they mixed together that the vinegar
of vice is not so sour as to be unpalalable the
molasses of viltue so sweet as to be sckening.-
My feelings are tender as young toadstools-
my passions are as strong as decoction of tobac-
CO juice-my sympathies are as soft as down un-
der an angels wing-and my desires for the pro-
motion of human happiness are just as happen
to feel about the heart and stomach.
Metaphorically speaking, am toy thing Of
time, played for short period and then cast among
rubbish; foot ball of fate, kicked about till burst,
and am no more worthy of kick; windmill ex-
citement that moves with the popular breeze, but
it is still calm; and current thermometer, my
mercury rising to summer heat by the warm rays
Of hope, and sinking to below zero in the cold at
mosphere of doubt, mean tallow candle already
burnt one third of the way to the socket, and eve-
ry moment in danger of being extinguished by the
suffers of death; an old boot worn by pilgrim
with wooden leg over the rough road of exist
ence, till il is neither worth heeng, soleng, patch
ing nor preserving. In fact, my friends, don't
see that am any more use to the universe, (con-
sidered as whole,) than shovel of poudrette to
ten acre cornfield.
When am dead and gone, shall be as thing
that never has been and the children of posterity
will shoot marbles across my grave, as unconscious
Of their sacraligious dolngs as parcel OF mice

OUR FOREIGN RELATIONS.

We are afraid that The general sense Of
the naiion is not sufficiently awake TO the
critical position in which our country is
likely 10 be placed BY the action Of the
Executive upon cur foreign relations, end
by the partial concurrence Of the House
Of Representatives in one branch of IFS
projects, and the action OF that body, even
surprising the Executive recommends
lions, in regard TO another.
In speech yesterday made by Mr..
Adams. on the spur Of the moment, but in
which he was LED by the chain Of his
thoughts into a mach wider field than he
intended. Mr.. Adams took occasion TO al
lude to tie present posture Of the Oregon
question, and to the possible consequen-
ces OF the bin on that subject which has
passed the House, should il ripcn into a
law. The direct effect OF such a law, he
said, would be 10 bring us into collision
with Great Britain, aud TO cause just ap-
prehensioa of.our being ultimately inyoly-
cd thereby in a war with that Power.
Abiding TO a rumor which had reached
him of the purpose Of the Administration.
in the event Of the passage Of the Oregon
bill, 10 propose TO add at once five regi-
men,s Of infantry 10 the present military
establishment, Mr.. A. intimated ii.st, how.
ever necessary or proper such measure
mlg:lt be in such a contingency, it was
nothing in comparison TO the extent Of
military preparation which it might be-
come necessary TO make in consequence
Of the rash and inconsiderate action in re-
gard to the Oregon question which The
House Of Representatives had on its par,
already countenanced.
Referring to the specula:ions which had
been indalgcl in as to supposed design
OF Great Britain TO acquire the Island Of
Cubab by negotiation with Spain--to which
he said we should, by our annexation of
Texas, lose all right TO take exception OIL
general prinoiples---wiih what probability
OF success should we undertake by force
10 prevent her acquisition of that island,
or wreSt it from her hands when acquired,
considering the utter disparity Of our ma
val force 10 hers. We're we, following
out the idea Of the late Secretary of the
Navy, (Mr. Upshur,) to attempt to en-
large our maritime force to only one-half
OF that of Great Britain, gentlemen must
lay their account with an expenditure of
t"rty millions of dollars year for that
branch of the public service alone, and, if
actually engaged in a war with, Great Bri-
tam, upon whatever ground it might be
~aged, Of perhaps twice that annual
amount. SO that, as mere matter of mo-
naey to be raised from the people in every
FORM OF taxation, a foreign war was not TO
DC courtel, as, by the levity with which
" had been spoken of, some gentlemen
seemed to think it should be.
This was the general tenor of the
speech of Mr.. Adams, in which he de-
pIored and condemned the temper and the
spirit in which the foreign relations of the
country have been OF late managed by the
Executive branch of the Government. and
discussed and acted upon in the House of
representatives. National Intel.
