 Farming.
 The following essentials for productive farming are such as every farmer ought to know and follow 1: .'ia .a el
 1, Good implements of.hus- bandry, plenty of them, which sh,uld always be kept1in perfect order. ha 1aa l9 sI sssa
 ?. Deep pIoughing, and thro' pulyerization of the soil by the free use of the harrow, drag and roller. .
 3. An application lime, mari or ashes, where calbareous mat ter or potash may not present in the soil. 'i~
 4. A systematic husbanding of every substance OH a farm capable of being converted into manure, as systematic protec- ton of such substances from loss by evaporation or waste of any kind, and a careful application of the same 10 the lands in cul- ture. e .-s ss@5- lo.a
 5. The draining of all wet lands, so as to relieve the roots of the plants from the ill effects of a superabundance of water, a condition equally as pernicious as drought, to their healthful growth and profitable fruitifca-
 tion.
 6. The free use of tho plough, cuItiyator and hoe, with all rGw- cultured crops, so as to keep
 down at all times, the growth of grass weeds,l these pests which : prove so destructiye to crops.
 7. see'ing in the proper time, with good seed, and an equal at tentlon. as to time, with regard to ths, working of crops.
 5. Attention to the construc-
 tlcn and repair of fences, so that what is made through the tolls and anxious cares of the husbandman, may not be through his neglect to protect his crops { from the depredations of stock l 9. Daily personal superinten- ? dance on the part of the master I over all the operations of the farm, no matter how good 6 Q manager he may have, or how Q ever faithful he may De, as tho e presence of the head of a farm e and the use of his eyes arc $ worth several pair of hands. e 10. Labor-saving machinery ft so that any one may render him if self as independent as needtu if of neighborhood labor, as ; ,t sense of the comparative inde e pendence of the employer upo, > such labor begets a disposition n of obedience and faithfulness ol e the part of the employed.
 e II. Comfortable stabling ans 1T shoes for the horses and stock h all necessary out buildings fo h t'le accommodation of the hands n and protection of the tools ant . implements, as we'll as for th' l care of the poultry.
 : 12. Clover and other grasse Y to form the pabulum for sue 7 ceeding crops.

The New York Courier and Enquirer (whig) thus

up our duty to Mexico:
For twenty years Mexico has been no better than
nest OF pirates among whom the persons and property
foreigners have been unsafe; the same time she has
been recognised and represented all the civilized courts
of the world, as responsible nation Revolution has
succeeded revolution in quick succession. Her mtar
cefians have violated the rights OF foreigners residing
within her borders, aud trampled upon the quiet AMI
peaceful of her citizens and yet have virtually
said TO Europe" Hands OLIVE the nation of North
America and will not permit your interference. No
monarchy shall be established in our neighberhood"
Such has been language; and it cannot be denied
that while we hold this language-which is just and
proper and which the whole nation is prepared to main
tanwe responsible for the quiet and well being Of
Mexico, so far foreigners concerned If we will
not permit others to compel her to conduct herself be-
comes civilized nation, it becomes duty to do it;
and from this obligation may not shrink. 1t is in
evidence, too, that this very time the peace party in
Mexcohe quiet, order loving among her pcople-avow
their fears that peace be negotiated and our army
Withdrawn. they will again become the prey of the horde
of reckless, worthless military cheftans whose only
OF living has been, and u.s. the necessity for their
services growing OF the disturbances created by them
selves. These vampires dispersed; and if we
leave thousand of troops in her capital and troops
at other points, she well afford to pay the expense OF
such army in consideration of the peace and prosperity it
would guaranty to her. Such course of proceeding
would give peace quiet and prosperity to Mexico, and
at terminate the existing and the expenditures
attending it.
