May 30, 17? Jw' T\.ura\ tcoftomy wv From the Plough Boy. Philosophers and poets* from the deepest antiquity up to the present time, i ;iave so copiously bestowed their praises upon a^ricultuie as the source of hu man comfort and weal, that it would be next to impossible to add materially to what has been already said upon this subject, and said so admirably well. But one little crevice, sufficient for a short essay, still remains to be filled up. I Know not that any one has undertaken to show that agriculture redeems the earth from the curse denounced upon it at the lamentable period of the apostacy, and even turns that curse to a blessing. This I will attempt, and if my feeble attempt should fail to produce conviction, it will at leas: give scope lor useful lefliction. Thorns aid t /tut lea m/ioU it bear ? was the burden of the cursc that lit. upon the ground. Cut it is not an irremediable curse: the industry of the skilful hus bandman removes this foul stain which the fall brought upon the ground, and bedecks it with a thousand beauties. Those cursed thorns and thistles hu grubs ou ; whatever is noxious, or use less. or unsightly, lie clears away; and rears up, instead, the tree that is good for food, the nutritious vegetable, what ever is pleasant to the eye, or grateful to the palate. Look upon the field of ?^oldrji wheat, rank and g<?od, ripe for tiie sickle, and waving in the gentle orec ze. Is there any visible curse re maining upon thai held? No: With Ed n iisell it almost vi< s in d? light ^oiitcm ss. Look now over the domain of larmer Thkift. What there do you sec indicating Mat hu ground is yet un <?er the cuise? Nothing. He has ho norably rede, med it from the original a.ediciiuii. There is nothing cumber some remaining; every thing is there ? .u shouid be, ?nd every thing in the rignt pla< e. 1 had ventured to remark above, thai by means of agriculture the curse upon the ground is even turned to a blessing: or, in olner words, that inestimable be nefits have spung out of it. Let us ex amine this point. Was then the curse upon lh ground infiieted in mercy to man? T presume to hold the affirmative, and for it will offer the following consi derations: Tnc sentence i Cursed ia the ground for thy sake. Ii is not upon gnan that tins curse talis, but upon the ground, ami upon the ground for ftis sake;? that is, in ordi r to adapt it to the circumstances ? >t fallen nature. It was no longer be fitting that he should live without toil, for u would have been destructive of his vital interests. In a moral point of view, and in every important lespect, it had become altogether necessary that he should labour, and even labour hard, lor his living ? tnat he should eat brtad m the #wra: of his fact; therefore sucn a change was men iluliy wrought in the face of the earth as should compel man to Lbour, and hy this means save him lioin desti uction. For suppose the w hole earth had been, and continued to be, as " blooming Ldt n fai that there weir no ruhbish upon the face of it, no nuisances to remove; that every thing nutritious, every ti>ing delicious, grew up spantaneousiy, and tliat man had no tiling to do hut banquet upon toe iuxu iic!? which perpetually surrounde<i him: ? Would he have been happy? Hufifiy! his condition would have been most vn itched and deplorable. Torpid for w ant of motive to exertion, enervated by sioth, corrupted by luxury, and wallow ii.g in the mire of profligate vice, the j pigmy race would, in all probability, have been utterly extinct thousands of y< ars ago. Obst rve next the reverse of ihis hi deous aspect. The thorn and thistle plucked away, the wilds turned to fruit ful fn ids, the poisonous feirs drained, and converted into rich meadows, the vallics clothed with corn; 44 the cattle upon a thousand hill?;**?? all this brought to pass by the skilful industry of man; who, while he is tilling the ground, si news his body, grows robui in constitu tion, and invigorates the faculncs of Ids mind. Meanwhile, the Lord lookcth down from above, visueth him with his vivifying sun, with the rains and dews ot heaven, and giveth him increase. It is not in judgment, but in mercy, that the divine constitution of things compels man to labour; and ot all labour, that of husbandry is the most congruous hi his health, his peace, and his morals; and the most conducive to the deve lopement of the faculties of his body and mind. Heboid, therefore, the goodness and seventy ol (?od: severuy, it. stnH.ii^ the ground w ith a curse so visible that man muRt needs see the marks of it even to the latest generation: Goodness, in making this very curse upon the ground the means ol r.tmcnsc benefit 10 our 'P'(Sta^c too, intil^ l^i'g the work ?.i ^rain from heaven/^ j and filling our l>eari? with food and gladness. American farmers, yours is among the choicest of callings, and no so great a body of people in any other part of this globe has such ample means of in dependence and comfort. Of the ground you till, you yourselves are the lords. Every goodly tree you plant, every acrc you meliorate, tends directly to your own benefit, and that of your wives and children. " lie up and doing.** Think not hard " concerning your work, and the toil of your hinds because of the ground which the Lord hath cursed.'* To the industrious it is a blessing in disguise. Say not, " a little mote fold ing of the hands to sleep," if the thorn and thistle is still growing in your en closure!*. Expel therefrom, with all speed, every nuisance, every deformity, occasioned by the wiles of the serpent. Destroy the teeth of the old dragon wcrever you find them scattered within your premises. Make every acre of your ground turn to some good account. To industry add skill. Seek earnestly, and by all means in your power, to in crease your own knowledge in practical agriculture. To skilful industry, add strict economy. Be frugal; let your liv ing be good, but plain and uncostly; so you will avoid the curse of debt, which is not remediable like that brought upr-n the ground. Dash from your lips the cup of intemperance; its deadly poison is more to be dreaded than the enve nomed tooth of the adder that hisses un der your sheaves. Bring up your chil dren in the habits ol industry and fruga lity; and in me tear of the Lord. Gi udge not to school and educate them well, that they may become intelligent, vir tuous, useful, respectable men and wo men. In all your toils and labours, in all your secular affairs, in all your do mestic concerns, seek the guidance of that wisdom which i> from above, and the blessing of heaven will rest upon you. Looking through the vista of a few years, methiuks I see in prospective the auspicious period when these United States shall possess ao agricultural po pulation far superior in numbers, and equal in knowledge and virtue to any that the world has ever known: wheh millions, and many millions, of tillers of the ground, shall be spread over this vast territory, Enjoying the comforts ot* moderate independence, the lamp of di vine truth, the lights of science, social and domestic happiness, and distinguish ed no less for their moral aud christian virtues, than for the pre-eminent good j ness ol their secular lo' and portion. Cidtivatio7i of the Grape, Olive , The following extract of a letter to a senator in congress is worth the atten tion of planters as well as of statesmen: " I am very much gratified by the ap pearance of conviction, that our soil?, climates, and general capacities arc likely to give us the grape vine and its fabi i ations, un^n a great and profitable scale. Wl/rt our coUoti Peonies 160 millions, w. shall feel deeply the want of o'her objects of cul ivaiion ai>d pro duction. TIr vine is to France, 100,000.000 dollars. Now 60 millions of sugar at gX, are g4, 800, 000 And lG0,00o,0u0 cotton at 15 cts. is 24,000,000 828,800.000 Surely this is a matter worthy of at tention, at any time, and especially at this moment of general difficulties, su gar, cotton, rice, and tobacco, wiih grain, arc falling in our markets; and the culture of Indigo is suspended. The olive ought not to be lost sight of, nor the date. I observe in the accounts of India, that it is slated that they manufacture much oil from the seeds of hemp, flax, and other vegetables. Among the pro ductions raised for the .manufacture of oil, is the vine or brush producing beans or pulse, called by the Africans the beney or benny, and called in Indos tan the " trsamutv in botany " set 'w mum oriental's." It has been brought into South Carolina by the African ships, is raised there, and its oil has been sent hither and to New V??rk, as salad oil, in presents and lor sate. I have tasted it at the house ot Or. Mcasc here, and used it. with pleasure, in my family. The pulse, bean, or pea, when pressed and deprived of much of :ts oil, is excellent and pleasant food, boil ed alone, or with vegetables, wf.ic' re quire buttei or oil.
