Editor: Io answer tn some pro ptr iiggerinni of jrourg, appended to our ar ticle on " Sheep and Fanning," we can gay that clover-seed, gown in favorable and where it takeg a good rout " catchea wen it one oi our most profitable invest ments in the line of agricultural economy. But you know all countries are not adapted to it : that it will verr treauentlr hpftv nuf ? it.... ... . r. .' .. . . ' uini ruoie are oiten aeen id the sprmz of the year, nine or even fifteen inches in length, lying on the top of the ground; and that, inereiore, seeding low, mucky lands with it, proves unprofitable : while, on the other hand seeding sandy, chestnut soil with clover-seed renders its use profitable in an eminent de- free, as experience has very frequently hown. Now, when we sow herds-grass in thi part of the State of New-York, sae- in Onondaga county, also in Seneca, and in that tier of counties, we are generally very certain of getting a growth of grass from our seed, or the eed almost invariably " catches" it does not fail so often as clover-seed ; and we regard timothy hay as of niore value by at least sixty per cent, than that produced from the sowing of clover-seed. But notwithstand ing this, clover has its absolute value ; name ly, it is of great consequence in tnakins either clay or sandy lands rich; it furnishes them with manure, and thereby the? are kent on. improved in value. The root of clover pe netrate deep into the soil, and hence brine out. or up, its latent properties. Herds-grass, we have noticed, seems to confine itself to the surface, and is very hardy. It will do well on almost any kind of land, though the soil must not be too net for it: but itserowth is always governed by the strength of the soil, as a matter of course.

Very respectfully, VT. TAPPAN. Baldwiasviil. X. V, December IS, 185S.' He are eteeedingly pleased with the dis criminate character of the foregoing. The writer seems to as to be a keenly accurite observer of nature ; and that wa always hold is the first requisite for a gootl farmer. Na turally acute power, of observation, sharpen ed by reading and conversation with inlelli gent men, will go far to supply the place of learning in a fainter or, what i. neater the truth, will make hint a learned man, in time, in hi nrofesiion. Hence we have often .aid, that when we have a little time to study tcitntific agriculture, we love to get atongsidc of an old, reading, thinking, acutely observant farmer one who ha. trorifd the farm and watched nature half a century. The only reason why the farm i. not the only and the tulfieicnt school lor the education of farmers, is, that knowledge obtained in this w ay come too late in life. Too many blunder and losses are made Irom a want ol it earlier. Many a farmer, when life is ebbing, has oc casion to wish he had known at twenty-five what he does at sixty. Hence, we think, i. one great advantage of scientific school, for agriculturenet to make the practical farmer profoundly scientific abstractly, but to give him an insight into nature, to create a taste for scientific reading, to quicken the power, of obaetvatiun, and to give the farmer the benefit of all this while life is yet young and Ire b, and while he ha. many "year, to reap the benefit of it.

We will give our idea of the best iime to cut herds-grass in another place. N. CORN MEAL POlt MILCH CnWft. In the fall of 1852. I bes-an to f.'iil three farrow cowg for the purpose of supplying a milkman in this vicinity with milk inr mar. ket 1 had a few sugar beets and turnips wun wntcn i Detrun. and. as 1 esie-npd the fUrrow cows for the butcher in the sDrinsr. I commenced giving them meal from corn and barley, some ten bushels of old grain ; then coi n meal alone, increasing till they ate one peck each day. I tried it cooked and raw, wei ana dry, mixed with cut fodder, com posed of hay, straw and corn-stalks cat up together, varying the amount of each as convenience might suggest, as 1 think all animals require a varietv. Now for the result. The cows increased in milk, giving more on the above feed than they had done on grass during the summer. Contrary to my expectation they did not im prove very fast on the food given, and 1 was obliged to day them up early in March, to get them fit for the shambles. My cows that w ere coming in in the spring had two quarts of corn meal each per day, and they also gave liberally. The milk being sold daily, gave an excellent opportunity for testing the amount given at the time. I made up mv mind that corn meal was'the best for milk of any food for the milch cow, and still think so, if gootl rich milk is wanted. It has been tried considerably in this vicinity, with the same results as here given. I fed cut feed, but I do not think that would vary the re sult; with me, if the cows tret their dailv allowance, i get me rciurnh. nxciumgt. .it .i . ... Sate Voi r Bacon.

Thi vear he nicked nintv-seven bushel of excellent cranberries, which he sold for four dollars per bushel ; and besides these there were some ten bushel, of damaged berries.

THE WATCH OF NEW -YEAR WEEK. BV JOHN OP BtlRLF.Y, I. The red thunderbolt suspended in the heavens is not more fearful thin the hand of one we love raised in anger; and the light ning.flash not more surely severs the link of life in the bosom it strikes and rends, than a blow the love and confidence that has before existed. Years may dim the recollection, ami after acts of kindness soothe the lacerated feeling ; but yet, hidden away by the roseate beams of the present, will be the dark cloud of a bitter memory, charged with the wrong that may at any moment overcast the sky. And vet the hand of John Deforest had been raised in anger over the sunny head of the bride of three years, and her white shoulder had shrunk and quivered under the horrible fear that it would fall and crush her, body and pint, inc irague, uencaie woman, nail stood for one moment at the mercy of the strong man, with no thought of love, or truth, or ripht, to shield her from the blow that was ; i. itnpeuuing. What fiend had entered into the paradise of love nd trust ? What evil influence htfd blighted all that three years before had been so bright and sunny in their lives? The answer is an easy one, and the demon will bring more victims at the last great day to a remorse eternal and unavailing, than anv other ot the fecrful brotherhood who have haunted the steps of man and made him an accursed thing, since the first morning of creation. That fiend Self. Alice Mapelsden had been reared in luxury. and shared in sll the perils of an early life mat nau no want unsupplied. Her dainty font had trodden upon velvet carnets. cased in all the appointments of wealth and fashion; her fragile limbs been wrapped in the cost liest products of the looms of two continents; her every wish been supplied at the moment it was uttered. The daughter of a millionaire, and prospective heir to one half ofhis wealth, what cause wss there that the most lavish taste should not be satisfied : what necessity j for any of the restraints beiittr artificially sun- . plied, which fortune and circumstance brin? of themselves to so many others ? Nay, what ' .. mj jwcnsiun wm mere mat. me prouu young I beauty should learn to remember the will, the t happiness, the peace of any other before or beside her own t Were there tin clouds in the sky of human life, rising in the day that lJlnw a sunny morning; were there no failures in the bright- D..L ......... at... ,.

And so they entered upon a union that should be one not only of hand with hand, but of heart with heart, if the lip. would shun the taste of bitterer ap pie. than ever the Dead Sea gave to the hung ry wanderer. A few months revealed the lioltowness of the hope upon which their union had been founded. Deforest despised the wot Id of fashion ; and his beautiful young wife wor shipped it with a wild idolatry. His friends were of his own nature, men and women whn saw beneath the surface of society, and paid no court to the gilded nothing, who floated upon it; tier's were of the light, the giddy, the superficial. He had a well-stocked libra ry, and reverenced the great names whose though), were there shtined for immortality. She read little. aul that little seldom went beyond the ephemeral literature of the dty. He wished to cunverae of the world, with a blending of the romance of a warm heart and a grasping intellect. She t content to let her own noble gift of soul lie dormant, and! to live but in the prcetit, and the eiijovmer.t. wnun weaitn and lutury rould bru;g her.

The fruit of years of foil with hand and brain shrivelled like flax in the flame of a commercial revulsion, snd John Deforest was cast almost penniless upon the world. Oil, then opened the noblest opportunity of life. Then was the time for two hearts properly knit by bonds of love and trust, to cling yet closer when the storm-wind blew. Then was the time for two whom find h.i joined and man might not put asunder, to siaiiu uiiiiii me ruins oi their worldly pros perity, and clasping hands and looking up to neavcii swear to till, each for the other, the place of the honor and the wealth that had been Inst, and make a purer happiness rise from the ashes that had consumed the dtoss around them, A hand that seemed misfor tune, but might have been a blessing in dis. guise, had swept away every earthly prop upon which they leaned, and each had only lelt the other. It was theirs, then, to re cognise the angel and embrace it ; they sliiht- fft Snrl tin ui.nl I l .i, .1 V ,? . unay aim ieii uiem to meir darkness and desolation. The strong and iron heart of John Deforest bowed to no misfortune. He might be said more truly to live, when in the midst of struggles that would have been to some dis couragement; and met, without a quivering hp, the story of his ruin: He asked no coun sel, sought no aid, do sympathy but strip ping himself at once of every remembrance of his life of wealth, bent every energy to Hirscui em caimness, ana rise again in the future. Not so with the yojjf wife of two years of luxury. Alice Deforest had no such resources to falf back upon. So far her lite had been one of sunshine and prosperity, and even the partial consciousness that followed her every hour, ot something of happiness unattained, something of duty unfulfilled had had no power to make her miserable. Now the foundations were indeeed removed, and what remained for the fragile, weak and unreliant woman, but to bow and. break bofore the storm? Into the humble tenement to which the poor man and his wife removed, from the lux urious apartments where the first two years of their wedded life had passed, but few foU lowed them. Alice's fashionable friends knew her no longer ; and even her haughty family. once so proud of her marriage, considered her now as another victim ot an unfortunate marriage, and visited her but seldom. Even the little cordiality that remained between the families, was cooled effectually by a word ' from Deforest who to a patroni.ing offer of assistance from the father of hit wife, re Few lives, as well as few lines run paral II . l t- " . tentive. tf. ,nj when two ;veg are nt j rawtn? nearer together, it is rare that they do nut wtiien in tnetr course tlay by day. John Deforest and his wife became still less and less companions for each other. Hat-rawed now more than ever, by contact with the world and the discouragements of his reduced circumstances.

The fountain of bitter words, once opened, is seldom closed without a cunvulsion. Bit ter and sullen words came from the sweet lip. that once had breathed but thought, of gentleness. Tones of contempt were heard, with a sick and peevish whining, and bitter tear, fell where they fell to little purpose.
