~ ORIGIN OF TIE TERM "JoHN BULL."-Dr.
John Bull was the first Gresham professor of
music, and organst and composer to Queen
Elizabeth. John, like q true Engshman,
travelled for Improvement, and having heard
d Of famous musician at st. Omer's, he plac-
ed himself under him as novice but cir
cumstancc very soon convinced the master
that he was inferior to the scholar. The mu-
stefan showed John song, which he compos-
ed, in forty parts--telling him at the same
L. time that he defed all the world to producea
person capable of adding another part to his
composition. Bull desired to be left alone,
and to be INDUCED for short time with pen
and ink. In less than three hours. he added
forty parts more to the song Upon which
the Frenchman was SO surprised, that he
swore in great ecstacy, he must be either the
Devil or John Bull; which has ever since
been proverbial in England. ...-..

This is an old-fashioned, verdant piece of

eccentric man troubled with that inconvenient

a piece of-good advice! If you know any
thing about him, try to rake up some mpru-
dence or mistake he may have made in the
course ofhis life, and bring that up as reason
why you can't give him anything more sub
stantial and tell him his present condition is
probably salutary disci pliue for those same
peccadioes ask him more questions than
there are i'll the Catechism, about his private

unexpected spasm Of generosity, and make
up your mind to bestow some worn-out old

the recipient gets it home, you've bought him,
body and soul, of course, and are entitled to
the gratitude ola lifetime! IF he ever pre-.

TIE VOICE OF THE FREE.

. The storm Of resentment rolls on the sky q
- To the rescue each valleys and mountains reply
Can Freemen do less than buckle to armor and shield
And bear the stripes and the stars aof on the field
The wall Of our Brother comes up from theplain,
- And the black wing of death broods aar DER the man
w Shall we flag till the Goddess Of Freedom expires?
Nor strike for wyes bahes affairs and fires
Ho the storm gathers black away in the North,
Where the legions OF fecmen to battle come forth
Like a Inltless forest, are the Numbers that swell
SAVE The proud ranks OF the braveand their banner doth tell
That they with heart that doth dare, and an arm
That doth do. Heed the tocsin that sounds the alarm
as Ere the boom and the din Of the battle shall break
e. In disnay on the ranks of the fallen and great.
May our Union and Fame not go down in the night
And the stain Of arms be yet red in the fight!
But the woe of our Brother yet fnd its redress,
And the stronger the weaker no longer Cypress.
Must the sound Of the tocsin in martial array,
= Call our Trecmen to battles loud clamor and fray?
Then afar on the oil our naves will rise, '
Aud the smoke of their ruin ascend to the skies
. But the ashes will kndIe Union more,
As upward the smoke of Its ruin shall soar
Union unsuled in glory or fame 4r
q Aud the world shout with Joy at It's fe-givng name!

A SHAKER BAns.-The Enfield Shakers are

A SHAKER BARN.-The Enfield Shakers are
building a granite barn for their COWS. 1t is
to be two hundred and fifty feet inength fifty
feet wide, and will probably cost Sl5,000.-
Mr. Eikins, the architect, gives the following
description of the edifce:
1.-The location and arrangements of this
barn edifce, are in many respects admirable.
Its outer walls are of stone and its roof Of
slate. 1t is located across gentle ravine,
opening from bank to bank, and it is so ar
ranged that teams laden with hay or straw,
may enter at either gable, precipitate the
load to the bay below, pass on, and make
their egress at the other end Such situa-
ton has enabled them to extend cellar its
whole length or the reception of the manures,
both solid and liquid, which are kept from
filtration or otherwise escaping downwards by
a plank floor laid upon a stratum OF clay,
wrought as bed Of mortar. The descent of
the ground upon the back part of the barn
renders ingress and egress to and from the
cellar convenient and easy for carrying pond
mud and manure. The cows will be tethefed
all upon the south side of the barn, and in
one continuous longitudincus stable sixteen
feet in width, with walls plastered inwardy
with lime mortar, and leaving wall behind
the cutters, of four feet in width, and corri-
dor or passage between the cribs and mows
upon the north side, (Which now preserves the
warmth of the barn throughout,) sufficiently
wide for horse and cart to pass, which is Of
ten convenient, when feeding with green food.
The scaffolds above the cows are the best
depository for litter, which is let down though
a trap door in the rear Of the cows and
also when partioned into rooms, serve as a
place for herdsmans Office. All these ar
engagements render it perhaps the most con-
venient, and it is undoubtedly the most expen-
sive barn in America. Its height to the caves,
upon the back side, is to be thirty feet; sta
bles, eight feet, Gncluding timbers) and scat
folds, sixteen feet. Flooring Tor teams
framed four feet below the caves

is cheaper, after proper treatment, for the
renewal of organic matter in the soil, than the

GREEN DTANUREs.


In answer to the inquiries 0. W. we
would suggest that the profitable use green
manures is, as he supposes, dependent in part
upon the condition and character of the soil.
Soils that are wet and sour, are not inn
proved by the blowing under of green crops,
but Tor soils properly under-draned, or which
are dry, and are deficient of organic matter,
in the absence of a cheaper source of supply,
green manures may be profitable used and
in England, with such sois, the farmers are
in the habit Of blowing under turnip tops
1eiore sowing to wheat in the autumn. In
his country clover or buckwheat is more
generally used, and in some cases the ordinary
field pea. Those green manures of course
should be selected, which receive the largest
amount of there constituents from the atmos-
phere, as such will give a greater amount Of
carbon to the SOIL and such also as. are apt
to be deep rooted plants, thus bringing inor-
game constituents from the sub-soil, and de.
posting them by their decay in the surface
soil Field peas are often used for this pur-
,ose, and we have known Indian Corn stocks
to be plowed under with admirable effect,
particularly insoils fairly charged with clay.
| In heavy clay soils where ridging and
back furrowing are used, leaving these ridges
for .dsintegration dnring winter, by frequent
freezings and thawings, the blowing under o.
green crops SO as to occupy the center Of
/ these ridges, is an admirable practices; Tor as
| they decay they leave channels for atmospheric
circulation, and with the addition of the free.
zings of the ridges during winter, the spring
finds them not only ifeer to work, but in a
lively heart for earlier vegetation--and this
is particularly true when sub soil pow is
understanding ridges inearly spring to a
great depth, afterwards splitting the ridges

TIE EARLY AGRICULTURE OF ENGLAND
When Caesar arrived in England. about So
years before Christ, he described the Cantii,
or the Inhabitants of Kent, and the
Belgae, inhabiting the modern Somerset,
Wits, and Hants as much more advanced
than the rest Of the people in the habits OF
civilized life. They cultivated the soil, en-
poyed mari as manure. stored their corn I'M
thrashed, and freed it from their chaff and
bran only as their daily demands required.
The inhabitants in the interior lived chiefly
upon milk and flesh, being clothed and
fed by the produce of their herds The coun-
try, adds Caesar, is well peopled, and abounds
in buildings resembling those of the Gauls
and they have a great abundance Of cattle.
They are not allowed to eat either the hen,
the goose, Or the hare, yet they take pleasure
in breeding them. Cicero says, there is not a
scruple OF money upon the island, or any
hopes of booty, but in slaves-a desert pton
which the Industry and intelligence OF succeed
ing ages has rendered singularly inappicable.
The first steps in that Improvement were ow-
ing TO the Romans themselves, and agrcul-
ture Was certainly the first instrument in I'M
parting to the Bftons the improved art and
civilization 0; the Romans; and that agrcu-
was one Of those arts in which they so rapidly
