the White House; and that this is the most like.
ly Inference, seems to be warranted by the words
of the affidavit itself. Mr.. Smonton pro.
fesses that he received those documents with.
out any breach Of trust-of course Mr.. Knox
Walker could copy them from the originals in
the White House, and give them, by special di
rectlon OF the President, to any person who
could publish them to the world; and it would be
no breach of trust, by either the President or his
private secretary, for they have right over all
such documents.
From all the circumstances attending the re.
cent Developments and lea..ages, from both ends
OF Washington, it is highly probable that the
President and his private secretary were well
acquainted with the way in which the Trist cor
respondence came before the public, while his
excellency was instigating Senators to prosecute
a single correspondent of New York paper, In
order to hide his own double-dealiug and triple
shutting in these matters There is no other
alternative for the mind to reach, in this matter
than to fix on the President and his private Sec
rotary, or some such party, the publication of
these documents. about which there was so much
fuss raised in Washington, and the liberty of a
citizen violated, by the absurd and ridiculous
conduct of the Senate

Curing Hams.

l beg leave to present to the public my manner of preserving hams. turn my barrel over a pan or kettle, in which l burn hard wood for seven or eight days ; keeping a little water on the head of the barrel to pre- vent from drying. I then pack two hundred weight of hams in my barrel, and prepare pickle. by putting six gallons of water in a boiler, with twelve pounds of salt, twelve ounces of saltpe- ire, and two quarts of molasses. This l stir sufficiently to dissolve he salt, &c, and let it boil and skim it. 1 then let it cool and pour 1t on my hams, and in one week l have hams, very tender, of an excellent flavor, and well smoked. When the weather be- comes warm there will be d $ ;am rise on the pickle. By keeping my hams under pickle, taey will keepi the year round.
 l. IS better to have a good white oak barrel than any oth- or. fry i', and if you ever had meat smoked earlier after kill ing, and more palarable, please inform the public through the 'olunns ot your paper.-Er.

Filling the Soil.

In tilling the earth, some pee ple go upon the same principle that regulates their business in- tercourse with men. I'hey must be sure 10 get the advan- tage of the trade; and if this cannot be secured without, they must cheat and deceive the per son with whom they deal. And they may think to practice the same artifice upon old mother earth. You will see them on their grounds in the spring as sly as dogs, apparently calcula- ting that earth has forgotten the exhausting crops that were ta- ken from her he last year-per- haps they will give a sprinkling o fmanure, and throw 1t on so as 10 make the earth think there is noble lot of it. Well, they go 10 work. But the earth
 won't be cheated. She will re- warl every man according to his works, and tell the truth in autumn. You cannot get the advantage of her, as you can Of human customers. Treat her well, and she will reward Your expenditures and toll 1; but at tempt to cheat her and she will make You sorry for 1t when har- vest comes.-Eunoer'S Journal.
