A WORD ABOUT Gardening NO
one can be truly said to live who has
not a garden. None but those who
have enjoyed it can appreciate the sat-
isiacIion-the luIury-of sitting down
TO table spread with the fruits of ones
own planting and culture. A bunch of
radishes-a few heads of lettuce--ta-
ken from the garden of summers
morning for breakfast or a mess of
green peas or sweet corn, is quite q
different affair from market in a dying
condition, to be put away in the cellar
for use. And a plate of strawberries
or raspberres lose none of their pecu.
liar flavor by passing directly from the
border TO the cream, wilhou, being iol-
ted about in bask ket until they have lost
all form and comeliness. And vet, how
many in the smaller cities and villages
of our country, possessing every facili.
ty fora good garden, either through in.
dolence or ignorance are deprived of
this source Of comfort And how
many farmers, with enough land lying
waste TO furnish them with most of the
Injuries of life, are content TO plod on
10 the even tenor Of their way. never
raising their tastes above the pork and

JNO. G.. MILLER'S LETTER.
From the Boonville Observer.

Mr.. ALLEN HAMMoND:-Dear Sir
| beg leave to ask place in the col.
umns of your paper for this communi.
cation. |, has been elected by enquir-
les made of me in relation TO my opin.
ions as TO the constitutionaiity and ex.
pedency of the "NViImot Proviso," and
Of the abolition of slavery in the Dis
trict of Columbia. To many of my
fellow citizens with whom have con.
versed upon these subject my opinions
are well known, but others having
sought them l deem it right and pro-
per TO respond to their enquiries, al
though | occupy no official station or
trus, which might render them a mat
ter of interest and importance to the
public.
In giving expression to my own opin-
ions upon questions which have so fear
fully agitaled the public mind in the
northern and southern sections of our
Union--have led 10 so many indiscreet
and inhammatory speeches in the halls
of Congress, and have SO deeply excl
ted a portion of the people of our own
state, | do so without any partizan or
sectional feeling-but as trust, with
the spirit which animates the mass of
the people west; fraternal feeling
which regards with deep solicitude
every controversy which tends to wea-
ken our common bond of union--and
which earnestly desiring peace to every
section, and good will TO all, would
interpose for harmony and reconcilia-
tion. Upon other momentous ques-
lions, and upon one with which the pol
ilical history of our own state is associa'
ted, distinguished statesman who bore
with him into the councils Of the nation
the feelings and sentiments Of the peo-
pie of the west, interposed between
our brethern of the north and south,
allayed their angry strife and restored
harmony and peace. And now that
sectional feeling has manifested deep
er intensity, and threatens the union OF
the states, the west will again come TO
the rescue and save the Union. And
with the declaration Of my devotion to
the Union, which no action of Congress
that may reasonably be anticipated car
disturb or weaken, | come TO the res
ponse ] have TO make TO the questions
proposed. ..-. .. ...
The object and purpose of the "Wi
mot Proviso" is, as | understand it, BY
an act of Congress in which that pro
viso may be incorporated, TO prohibi
slavery from any of the Territory be
longing TO the United States, in which
it has not been already prohibited, ant
as such provision has been made fol
! the Territories Of Oregon and Mineso
Ia, the only Territory remaining upor
which such provision would operal,
are California and New Mexico. Ii il

THE MANAGEMENT OF HoGs.-Foy
the last four or FIVE years, have fat
tened spring pigs, believing them to be
most profitable, The way mnnago is
ihIs: ! take pigs, about the middle of
March, and when they are about one
month old, put them in a small 10, con-
tinguous TO the house, so that can feed
them regularly on milk and Indian meal
| put the sows in good pasture, and
turn them in with the pigs three times a
day, until some time in July, when |
turn my sows and pigs into my orchard,
where they get the most oftheir living
until October; then feed them on corn.
meal and mush until some time in Jan
uary. When kill them, they average
from $50 TO 275 pounds; and ! am al
most convinced lha, they are more prof.
liable than wintered hogs weighing 400
pounds; but ! stand upon conviction.--
Perhaps some of your able correspon-
dents may convince me otherwise. -
