A Good Text.

In the year l771, while the old
thirteen States, were yet colonies Of
Great Britain: BENJAMIN Franklin,
then in the city of London, wrote
home the following:
"Every manufacture encouraged
in our country makes part Of mar
ket for provisions within ourselves,
and saves so much money to the
country as must otherwise be export
ed to pay for the manufactures he
supplies. Here in England it is we'll
known and understood that whenev-
or manufacture is established which
employs number of hands it raises
the value of land in the neighboring
country oil around it. It seems
therefore, the interest of our farm
ers and owners of land to encourage
our young manufactures in prefer
ence to foreign Ones"
Though this is hundred years
old, it is nevertheless as true to day,
as it was then, and IS among the
choicest items of the old Patriot
Philosophers sayings, bearing upon
the subject of political economy.
The application, we wish howev-
er to make at this time, of the truth
of the views he advances, is that of
local character, viz: the encour-
agement of the manufacturing inter-
lists of our own county. We have
labored hard and long to obtain rail-
roads: We have effected much, and
in our opinion, we have only to car
ry out In good faith, our promises
and we shall succeed, fully and COM
pletely, in all tho Railroad enterpri-
SEES we have engaged in.
The grand finale to all however, is
to encourage, build up and extend
our manufactures.
The farmers Of our county in our
view have never fully appreciated
how deeply they are interested in
this matter.
Mark the language Of Franklin
"Here in England it is we'll known
sand understood that whenever q
manufacture is established which
Uanp1oxc pup,hor ~ hands ~ ,o;s
"es the value of land in the neighhor-
"ing country all around it," This
fact is verified all over our country,
in hundreds of instances to-day, and
we wish to impress this truth upon
the farmers, that it is as much their
interest, to lend a helping hand in
the extension and encouragement of
our manufacturing interests, as it is
the people of the towns.

How TO CAN CoRN.-The following
recipe for putting up corn for winter
use will be serviceable. Boil it fifteen
minutes on the ear; then dry the
grain an hour in pans in the warm
sunshine; next salt it just as much as
will season it for the table;fill tin cans,
leaving half On inch of space, put a
gill or so ofwater in each can, and
leave an aperture about the size of o
pin in the cover for tho escape of the
gas; then place tins in kettle, having
just enough water to reach within
halt an inch Of tho top of tho cans;
then boil moderately three-quarters
of an hour, and then solder up the
vent. The corn will keep perfectly
sweet and good as long as it is requir-
ed.
