TEST Your SEED CoRN.-EdS. Raral ):
Let me, through the columns OF your vaiua-
BILE paper, make a few suggestions to farmers
which may gave some OF them much time
and trouble and not little vexation.
At the time Of the cold weather in NoVen-
Der the thermometer stood several degrees
below zero iR this part Of the conntry, and L
believe in some of the Eastera and Western
States alse At that time there WAS but
small portion of the corn crop in this vieini-
ty that was 50 thoroughly dried as not TO be
injrued by the cold weather. The oonse-
quenoe is that it will be unfit for seed
Whole fields via be planted chat will MOI
come up, and great will be the wonderment
among the uninitiated. Let no one be sure
that his corn will grow until he has tried it.
and having tried it and puo~ed it good, let
him keep oaough fer seed and supply for
his neighbors, as good seed com wall be
scarce.
A good way TO try (which should be
done before planting time-is to take few
kernels from each of several different ears
and put them between two sods ia some warm
place and keeping them moist If the seed
is good it will soon sprout. "a %ord to the
wIss is sufficient"

Butter Making.

EDrroR Fireman. have watched your
paper very closely this winter, to see if l
could learn any thing new on the subject of
butter-making.
Now, suppose goa know, and l should
think every one o@gkt to know that we all
color our butter; there may be some few ex-
eeptions say of one or two extra COWS, but
such cases are Gerry rare. We can heat the
milk, but by doing so you loose that rich
taste in the butter and gain very little in col
or. Now l have learned that it is best to
set the milk is some warm place where you
can have pure air and pleuty Of light, and
then skim it when the milk is two days old,
then ehurn three times week, aud let the
color be what it will, You know how very
particular better-buyers and eaters are about
the color of butter. They will not pay more
than half as much for white butter, if it is
equally as good. Now, Sir, what sballwe col
or our butter with? Some use carrot juice,
this is q very laborious undertaking, for us
women to CRATE carrots to color two churn-
ings week, of some twenty five pounds.
This many Of ushave to DO in the first Of the
winter, if we are able, Others use eggs for
coloring, this no one can afford Then there
are great many that use otter, this is the
easiest and cheapest way know of, but l
never dared to use it, because cannot learn
how, and Of what it is made Tradition tells
of horrid way they obtain this unwholsome
dyestuf, l do not believe there is one in
five hundred that knows how otter is obtain
ed. I wish soine one that knows would in-
form us on this subject, and let us know if
it is wholesome as an article Of food.

10 RAISE EXTRA EARw PerAreEs.-Cever
the bottom Of several shallow boxes with six
iRchcs Of equal parts stable manure and lean
and put any early variety of potatoes over
the surface two or three inches apart then
cover them with SIX inches of the compost.
Nail Stats Or an open cover over the top, and
bury in the side of a fermenting manure heap
the warmth OF which will sooa start the po-
tatoes into growth. If the heat should be
too great, remove portion OF the manure
from tho top, and, admit air inside the box.
When the weather will allow planting out.
remove the boxes, which will contain mass
of roots and whitish colored stalks. Leave
them in the open air fer a few days to harden
off, and having watered them oopieusly, take
cut the potatoes with as much earth as posi-
BILE, undsturbed about the roots already form
ed, and transplant inrows. You will then
have potanoes at least two or three weeks ear
lier than when planted at first in the open
grounds The middle or latter part of
March will be a proper season for putting
them in the compost heap.

| General Government. Such at least, is the nee
essary consequence of his argument. He goes
so far that he even brands as g bringing the
acts of l843 and $780, that startled the whole
Union by their boldness, as going at leastto the
very verge of notification. Now, Mr.. Editor,
I submit that the act introduced at the last SEES
sion ought not to satisfy a man of such views;
he should be consistent, and demand a law en-
tirely prohibiting the enforcement of the acts
Of Congress as regards fugitive slaves, even by
United States officers, within our territory, and
commanding the Executive to call out our Mi
litia, if need be. to maintain our sovereignty
against the Federal Government. 70 draft
such bill requires but little ability; but to
enforce it would involve consequences that we
are not prepared to meet. But to draft u law
which should keep within the bounds of the
Constitution and avoid direct conflict with the
powers of the General Government, and at the
same time put the GO sting of disability" into
the exactions of oppression, this requresa cool
ness of courage and scope of ability far above
all rhetorical phllippics, however justly de-
served NJ

Use OF Hor- BEDs.--lt is gratifying to find
that the useful hot-bed is becoming every day
more common among our friends the farmers.
They begin to appreciate eatly green vegeta-
bles, and when we consider the little extra
required to have one from what every good
farm contains, itis Surprising that they are not
more universal Manure there is plenty,
which is scarcely Injured by its use Tor the
hot-bed. There is always boards, plaaks or
slabs enough to form box. The only thing
wanted then is the sash A very few dollars
will buy these, and if that cannot be spared,
use muslin blinds, us recommended In this pa
per last year, or cyen common wiAaow-sash.
A short distance front this city, we saw
last spring a rather primitive attempted max
ing hol-beds; yet it answered, and that is
enough for those who have no spare dollars.
1t was simply this: A hole was dug in the
ground sufficient to hold a few harr0w-oads
Of manure; a box knocked up Of old pieces
of boards laying round, to place ca the man
ure, and Of u size sufficient for two ordinary
window-sash to cover, and two or three inches
of soil, (mostly sand for it was on RIDGE
and into this was sown a row of eggplant,
two or three rows of amatoes, cabbages, let
tuce, &c. and the plants evidently did not
know but they occupied tirst-class hot-bed,
for they grew and furnished the farmer with
young PLANTS sufficient to plant out for first
crop This was first attempt, but it will
not be the last; the window sash are to give
way to regular hot-bed sash: the hole for the
manure is to be large enough TO contain a
wagon load or two and the building is to
commence the end of March instead Of April.
In short it Is ts receive that attention its
merits deserve--Coumry Gent.

but they are of an incidental character, not at
all necessary to the establishment of his main
argument. We can overlook all these exterior
topics, and accord to the letter, as whole or
hearty commentator. 1t is an utterance what
every Southern man ought to give ear to--a

The Rutland Courier pretends to discover an
attempt upon the part of the Phenir to bring
about the nomination of F. Holbrook for Gov
ernor, and gives its opinion in favor of the
nomination. Now it is very well for Democrat
ic papers to favor the nomination of doubtful
temperance and Anti-Slavery man, but such an
one will never receive the support of the Re-
publicans.

$4,000. The Administration is making the
most extraordinary efforts to force upon this
$4,000 Constitution framed by the $500, and
this is Buchanan's idea of popular sovereignty.

WHOLE POTATOES Us EYES FOR SEED.-An
English paper the Ipswich Express, gives the
result of an experiment lately made to ascer-
tain what would be the difference in yield
where the whole potatoes were used for
seed or the eyes alone, and reports thus:
-" A trial has been made in the yicarage
garden, Coggershail of potatoe-eyos against
whole potatoes, on perfectly equal terms, a
row of each side byside-a certain number of
whole potatoes were sown a yard apart, the
eyes of the same sort sown at the usual dis
tance-equal care was taken in all respects
that the trial might be fair. The result as
shown few weeks back, was, that the whole
potatoes produced in weight more potatoes,
but the excess of weight was just equal to
the weight of potatoes from which the eyes
had been taken, and which potatoes had gone
into the kitchen for dressing; so that, as far
as this experiment goes, nothing is gained by
sowing whole potatoes.
For PLAIN MINcE PIEs.-Take Of the
coarser parts of beef, aud boil tender, when
cold, chop very finely; add two-thirds as
many finely chopped apples as meat; use eli
der for juice; season with cinnamon, ginger
or spice. Instead Of raisins, (if you haven't
them use any kind of small fruit, dried and
stewed, or preserved in any way for winter
