As soon as the, frost is out of the

‘A correspondent of the Germantown

ering clover seed too deep when it is
sown. ‘

Pie Plant»-The large stalks of Rhu-
barb are the combined result of good
cultivation and selecting large varieties.
Downin_2’s Colossal is said to be the best
kind. The manure put around the
plant:- in the fall should be spoiled in ear-
ly in the spring. - _,

Fattening PouItry.—-Poultry cooped
up to fatten, will do well for twelve‘ or
fourteen days. Keep them’ in coops
beyond this time, and feed them as you
please, and they will ‘grow leaner every
day till they die. '

A farmer who kept fourteen ducks
through the season, g-iv,e_s as the result a

the absence of the frost, the ground can
be spadcd and put in good condition.-—
For these and all other roots the dung

dung is at hzind, guano may be very
properly used in its stead. Whatever
manure may be used it should be care-
fully spaded in, and the soil rendered fine

 the rows should be freely dusted with a
I minute of equal parts of ashes and

3 VCo0.7:z'ng Food for Hogs.-—At the
‘ liillsborough Agricultural Society it
was stated that Mr. How, Methuen,
Massacliiiseus, took an equal number of
pigs of the same litter, and kept one lot
on meal uncooked, or merely mixed with
water. To the other lot he gave an
equal weight scalded or cooked, Those
on the uncooked meal increased much
more than those on the cooked. The
experiment was then reversed, and
again resulted in favor of raw meal.

P_e_a,c_/2. T2-ee,s.——At a late, meeting of
the Hzimpden Agricultural Debating So-
ciety, Rev. Dr. Ide, stated that he had
heard of a citizen of Worcester, who had
obtained five. acres for peach trees, which
he set out in rows suitably distanced, the
intervalsbeing devoted to root products,
In a single yearlie had realized from the
crop alone, a sum_snfiicient to pay the
entire expenses of cultivation, cost. of
trees, &c., while the trees had yielded
him 3000 bushels of peaches which sold

in Boston market at two dollars per bush- '

el, thus netting a‘ clear profit of $5,000.

Omens.’-—A writer for the Evening
Post, recommends the use of salt on on
ions, at the rate of six bushels to the acre
Also a liberal supply of ashes and rotted
maillire.

'TIze_ Concord Grape-.——There is some
do"ubt'.abo_ut the superior qualities of this
grape, which’ has been so extravagaiitiy
praised of late"; ‘ The American Agricul-
turist says it has reliable testimony “that
the fruit is not, in the qualities of size,

stated to he by propagators ;‘ but that in
these particulars it is altogether exag-

Potatoes from Seecl.—Mr. D. A. Bulk-
ley of Williamstown, Mass., has over

The Pie Plant.-—A correspondent of

the Jizdpzarza Farmer expresses the opin- .

ion, based upon experiment, that the use
of ashes as the manure for the pie plant
produces -a more delicious plant than any
mode of culture; not being as sour, but
containing just'enough acid tomake them
pleasant. The reason given for this is
that the acid peculiar to the rhubarb is
neutralized in part by the alkali of the
ashes.

it is most desiiable in winter and much
finer. For general crop, sow when open

celery it should be well watered in the

the size and much of the quality on the
crop. Just before severe frosts may he

close together upright, with a-little earth
between, in a cellar. or out house, and it
may be kept for a long time good in a
small space. Neglect in a culture of

largest, white the sweetest, most solid,
and fiuest texture. ‘

The Cu'7'cuZz'o.—-—A correspondent of
the N. York Tribune says that a friend
after having tried many effectual reme.
dies for the curculio, mixed sulphur and
lard with a little Scotch snuff, and rub-
bed it freely on the body and branches of
the tree. The curcnlio had already com-
menced their work at the time, but not
relishing the smell of the snuff, in a few
days they all left, and he had such a crop
of plums that he was obliged to prop the
branches up to keep them from breaking

V off. This remedy is worth trying.

There was a bush in that princely
parlor, broken only by what seemed I
sniothered sob from some manly bosom.
The bride stood yet upright, with quive-
ring lip, and tears stealing to the outward
edge of ‘ her lashes. ‘ Her ,beauiifi_il arm
had lost its tension, and the glass, with
its little troubled red waves, came slowly
towards the iange of her vision She
spoke again ; every lip was mute. Her
voice was low, faint, yet awfully distinct
she still fixed her sorrowful glance upon
the wine cup.

“It is evening now; the great white
moon is coming up, and his beams lay
gently on his forehead. He moves not ;
his eyes are set in their sockets; dim are
their piercing glances; in vain his friends
whispered the name of father and sister,
death is there. Death-—and no soft hand
no gentle voice to bless and soothe him.
His head sinks back! one, convulsive
shudder! he is dead!" ' , .

A groan ran through the assembly, so
,vivi_d was her description, so. unearthly
heVr_look, so inspired her manner, that,
what she described seemed actual] to
have taken place then and there. They
noticed also that the bridegroom had his
face in his hands and was weeping.

“Dead !” she repeated again, her lips
quivering faster and faster, and her voice
more -and more broken; and there they
scoop him a grave; and there they with-
out a shroud. they lay him down in that
damp, reeking earth. The only son of
a proud father, the ‘ idolized brother of a
fond sister: And he sleeps to-day in that
dist’aiit country, with no stone to mark

deadly poison.

“Father,” she exclaimed,turning' sud-
'denly. while the tears ruined down her
beautiful cheeks, “father, shall I drink it
now T” -

The form of the old Judge was con-
vulsed with agony. He raised not his
head, but in it smothered voice he falte-
red—"No, no, my child, in God’s name,
no."

She lifted the glittering goblet, and let-
ting it suddenly fall to the floor, it was
dashed in a thousand pieces. Many a
tearful eye watched her movements, and
instantaneously every wine. glass was
transferred to the marble table on which it
hadbeen prepared. Then as she looked
at the fragments of crystal, she turned to
the company, saying, “let no friend here-
after, who loves me, tempt me to peril
my soul for wine. Not firmer are the
everlasting hills than my resolve, God
helping me, never to touch or taste that
terrible poison. And he to whom I gave.

emn hour, and buried the wanderer there

‘trust, sustain me in that resolve. Will

A Female Hunter. ,
[The Bridgeport Farmer publishes the
following as an. extract from a letter
from a person travelling to a pedlar. in
the wild portionof _Delewai-e, and Sul-
livsii§Counties in the State’ of New
York, toa friend in Connecticiiu]
- '!»I must relate an‘ adventure that I
-m¢i._W;lth'a few days since As Iwas
~,trud'giug- along one afternoon, in" the
town.) of Fremont-,. one of the border
town: of Sullivan county, ‘I was overta-
kerr; by what I, at first supposed to be a
young man, with 3 rifle on his shoulder,
and being planed with the idea of hav-
-ingcompany through thof woods,-I turn-
-sir.” , “. Good afternoonff replied‘ my
new acquaintance, but in a tone of voice
that sounded to me,rather peculiar. My
suspicions were at once aroused, and to
satisfy myself, I made some inquiries in
regard to hunting, which were readily
answered by the young lady who I had
thus encountered. She said she had
been out ever since daylight; had fol-
lowed a buck nearly all day,got one shot
and wounded him—but as there was lit-
at rnow,—she could not get him, and was
going to try him the next day, hoping
that she should get another shot at him
and was quite certain she, could kill him.
Although I cannot give a very good idea
of her appearance, I will try to describe
her dress. The only article of female
apparel visible was a close. fitting hood
upon’ her head, such as is often worn by
deer hunter: Next, on India rubber
hunting cost; her netherglimbs were en-
cased in a pair of snug fitting corduroy
pants and a pair of Indian moccassins
upon her feet. She had 3 good looking
rifle upon her shoulder,_and 8 brace of
double-burreled pistol: in the side pocket
of her coat, while it most formidable
hunting knife hung suspended by her
side. Wishing to witness her skill with
her hunting instruments, I commenced
bantering her in regard to shooting.-—
She smiled and said she was as good a
shot as was in the woods—and to con-
vince me, took her hunting knife and cut
3 ring about four inches diameter, in a
tree, with a small spot in the centre.-—
Then stepping back thirty yards, and
drawing up one of her pistols, put both
built inside the ring. She then at eigh-
teen rods from "the tree, put a ball from
her rifle in the very centre. We shortly
came to her father's house, and I gladly
accepted an invitation to stop there over
night. The maiden hunter instead of
setting down to testis most hunters do
when they get home, remarked that she
had got the chores to do. So she went
outéfed, watered and stabled a pair of
young horses, a yoke of. oxen, and three
cows. She then weno to the saw mill and
brought a slab which I shouldn't like to
have carried: and with an axe and saw
she soon worked it up into stove wood,
Her next business was to change her
dress and get tea which she did in a
manner which would have been more
creditable to it more scientific cook. Af.
ter tea she finished up the usual house.
work. and then sat down and commen.
ced plying her needle in the most lady.
like manner. I ascertained that her
mother Was quite feeble and her father
confined to the house with the rheuma.
tism. The whole family were iutelli.
gent, well educated and communicative.
Theyhad moved from Scoharie county
into the woods about three years before,
and the father was taken lame the first
winter after their arrival, and has not
been able to do anything since, and Lu-
cy Ann, as her mother called her, has
taken charge of, ploughed, planted, and
harvested the farm; learned to chop
-wood, drive team and do all the necessa-
ry work. Game being plenty, she had
learned to use her father’s rifle, and
spent some of her leisure hours in hun-
ting. She had not killed a deer yet, but
expressed her determination to kill one
before New Years. She boasted " of
having killed any quantity of squirrels,
partridges. and other small game. After
chatting some time, she brought a violin
from a closet and played fifteen or twen-
ty tunes, and also sang a few songs, ac-
companying herself on the violin, in a
style that showed site was far from des-
titute.of musical skill. After spending
a pleasant evening, we retired. The
next morning she was up at 4 o’clock,
and before sunrise had the breakfast out
of the way, and her work out of doors
and in the house done; and when I left,
a few minutconfter sunrise, she had got
on her hunting suit, and was loading her
rifle for another chase aftér the deer.”

 

The Frenchman and the Key.

A citizen of la belle France, who has
an inveterate habit of confounding eve-
rything which is said’ to him, and .~, has
been in vain attempting to acquire a‘
knowledge of our vernacular, was about
leaving his boarding place for more com-
fortable quarters. All the little myste-
ries of his wardrobe, including his last
cal de c/iemise and umbrella,;=,- had been
carefully paiiked up, when he bethought
to himself the unpleasant duty now de-
volving upon him, that of bidding “ zee
folks" his good bye.

After shaking his fellow boarders cor-
diuly by the hand, and wishing them
with incessant bowing " zee verree bess
suc-cess in z_ee virl,” and " zee ~gbenedic-
lion du cie|," he retired in search of his
" dear landlady," to give her also his
parting blessing. He met her at the
foot of the staircase, and advancing hat
in hand, with a thousand scrapes, com-
menced his speech:

" Ah! madame, I am go-in to ‘leave
you. You have been very amiable to
me, madume,I viii nevour forget you
for zat. If I am in my countree I would
ask zer government to give you a pen-
sion, madame." _

The good old lady put down her head
and blushed modest.ly,while our French-
mon proceeded : . ,

"Vol, I must go; you know in zeeze
life, madame, it is full of pain and troup-
lo. If Got adopted zee virl vich Lam-

" DECLARATION. 0

It is with‘deep regret that Her Mu.
jesty announces the failure of her anxious
and protracted endeavors to preserve for
her people and -for Europe the blessings
of peace.

The unprovoked aggression of the Em.
peror of Russia against the Sublime Por-
to has been persisted in with such disre.
gard of "consequences, that after the re-
jection by, the. Emperor of Russia of
terms which the Emperor of Austria, the
Emperor of the French, and the King of
Prussia, as ell as Her Majesty, consid-
ered just anigequiiable, Her Majesty is
compelled, by a sense of what is due to
the honour of her Crown, tcnhe interests
of tier people, and to the indepence ofthe
states of Europe, to come forward in de.
fence of an ally whose territory is inva-
ded, and whose dignity and independence
are assailed. _

Her Majesty, in justification of the
course she is about to pursue, refers to
the transactions in which Her Majesty
has been engaged.

‘ The Emperor of Russia had some
cauge. of complaint against the Sultan
with refsreiice to the settlement, which
His Highnéss had sanctioned. of the con-
flicting claims“of the Greek and Lam,
Churches to a portiot.‘ of the holy places
of Jerusalem and its iieig-i:_borhood. To
the complaint of the Emperor Qf Russia
on this head justice was done, and Her
Majesty’: ambassador at Constantinople
to which no exception was taken bv the
Russian government. '

But, while the Russian Government
repeatedly assured the Government of
Her’Majestj' that the mission of Prince
Menschikoti: to Constantinople was ex-
clusively directed to the settlement of
the question of the Holy Places at Jeru-
salem, Prince Menschikoff himself pres-
sed upon the Ports other demamls ofa
far more serious and l()l[‘0Ti.8.)ll Character
the nature of which he in the first in-
-stance endeavored, as far as possible ,0
conceal from Her Majesty’s Am bnssallor
And these demands, thus studiouslv con.
cealed, affected, not the privileaeg bf me
Greek Church at Jerusaleni, bust the po.
sition of many millions of Turkish sub-
jects in their relations to their soverei n
the Sultan. g

These» demam_ls_ were rejected by the
spontaneous decision or the Sublime Por-
te.

Two assurances had been given to Her
Majesty-—one, that the mission of Prince
Menschilloff only regarded the Holy pla.
ces; the other, that his mission would
be of :1 conciliatory character,

In both respect Her Majesty’s just BL
pectations were disappointed,

Demands were made which in the
opinion of the Sultan, extende,d to the
substitution of the Emperor of Ru5s,,;»,
authority for his own over a large portion
of his subjects, and those demands were
enforced by a threat; and when Her‘Ma-
jesiy learned that, on announcing the ter-
mination of his mission, Prince Me,,s_
chikoif declared that the refusal of his
demands would impose upon the Imp,_._
rial Government the necessity of seek-
inga guarantee by its own power, He,
Majesty thought proper that her flee;
should leave Malta, and, in co.ope1-agion
\Vll.Il that of His Majesty the Emperor of
the French, take up its station in me
neighborhood of the Dardanelles.

So long as the negotiation bore an am-
icable churacter Her Majesty refrained
from any demonstration of force_ But
when in addition to the assemblatre of
military forces on the frontier of Tutjkey
the Ambassador of Russia intimated that
serious consequences would ensue from
the refusal of the Sultan to comply with
unwarrantable demands, Her Majesty
dfiemed it right. in Conjunction with the
Emperor of the French, to give an un-
‘i“°5‘i°“°bl° P1‘00f of her determination
to support the sovereign rights ofme Sn].
tan. ’

. The Russian Government has main-
tained that the determination of the Em-
pei-or to occupy the Principalities was ta-
ken in consequence of the advance of-.he

fleets of England and France. But the

menace of invasion of the Turkish terri-

tory conveyed in Count Nesselrode’s
note to Redschid Pasha of the 19th 

of May, and rested in his despatcli to
Baton Brunow of the 20th of May (is:
of Jmie) which announced the determi-

nation of the Emperor of Russia to order
his troops to occupy" the Principalities,

if the Porte did not within a week com.
ply with the demands of Russia.

The despatch to Her ll-’lajestv’s Am.
bassador at Constantinople, authorizing
him in certain specified contingencies to
send for the British-fleet, was dated the
31st of May, and 'the order sent direct
from England to Her Majesty's admiral
to proceed to the neighborhood of the
Dardanelles was dated the 2d of June.
