' i PHILOSOPHY FOR FARMERS- The friend at vur elbow i a skeptic ! What have farmers to do with Philoaophj r Much, very much ; if the business is pur sueii rur Jlenj.ic Pt hsi if. from sheer cecesaity to eke out a. miserable exis tence, it hows indeed, a very great want of it. - Inat there are certain nxeti, nninutalile principles, of tliemselves constituting the science of Philosophy, upon which tlie suc cessful farmer is as dependent as any other , class of mankind, cannot be denied by the most skeptical, IS ay, lie is, more titan oth ers, interested in a knowledge ol ihe general firoperties of matter and the mechanical aw of bodies, the physical law of attraction, light and electricity. . oine have erroneously supposed, that the life of tlie husbandman was nothing more thali a continual round of manual labor, to plant, cultivate and reap tlie fruits of hit indusfj-y ; that there is no necessity that he jJaould have any book knowledge ; that the manual skill taught htm by his lather, anil his own observation, weri amply sufficient tor his calling.. It is fue that many good practical far mers live and die, without their being "ble to assign a reason, or a correct one, unless bv accident, for tH-rforminir certain labors t( the farm at certain periods of the year. or wny usnouiu oe none in a certain manner; whereas had their education been such as tt fit them for the station of their choice in life, they would not only be able to assign a correct reason, but to so direct their t Hurts as to second the immutable laws of nature, and see a re the desired results with a less amount of labor. . How important it is to the farmer to un derstand the nature of his soil, the qualities of its indigenous- produce, the food of the plants by. nature, and the elementary princi ples of his cultivated crops. If he can only have this knowledge, wVich ran alone be acquired by education, by diligence, by book learning, he will at once be enabled by the judicious application of manures, and a proper rotation of crops, to restore to the oil its pristine properties, or if originally llefcttivw tw smI it yJaitiv. ; . AH soils produce weeds in greater or Irsa abundance, most of which are great pests to the farmer, not ouly exhausting the soil of its fruitfulness (weeds are gross feeders) but choking out the cultivated crops. Il annuals produced from the seed each , year, they may be generally extirpated in a few years by their destruction before the seed is matured. If bitnn'udi, they are less easily cot rid of, the root also must be de- stroved. This mar sometimes be done by ! " " I'. W.Jn7th.! "r rT. I "". V: .I.- - ,i... rat tfrnm th leave, and .talks necessary rate sap from the leaves and stalks necessary for their support, and thus the juices de signed for tbe nourishment of the parent root are rendered acrid and poisonous, and the root must perish.

Practically, one of the' greatest pests to the farmers of hast I rnnessve, the sassalras, is soon destroyed bv the process of clovcrmg and nasturinz. If the clover it mown, the tpmlcr shoots of the sassafras are cut off in the heat of summer, and if pastured down, domestic animals eat off the young shoots and the juices contained in tlie leaves are rut oB Irom the parent plant, the womiy filir Is not formed, or it diseased at its for mation, and hence, for the want of the proper annual supply of nourishment the plant dies, though a tree is very tenacious of life. The leaves of trees and plants are to them, what the lunrs are to animals in the animal economy. In them the sap it purified and perlected.and whatever is too gross, or unut lor the aliuirnt of the parent tree or plant, is thrown till' bv the leaves on the atmos phere; thus if the sponjrioles, or minute fibres of the roots absorb from the toil ele ments hurtful or destructive to the tree or plant, nature has furnished it with a perfect rlaboratory to relieve itself of the poison absorbed bv the roots. The philosophic farmer being aware of these facts, and reasoning irom analogy, ill seize at once everv fortuitous circum stance to eradicate whatever it hurtful to hit soil or hit crops, and at the tame tune tin prove hit soil and hit mind. The educated farmer stands, in point of character, practical usefulness and personal independence, loremnst among nis leuow mrn. Well might the drones of the hive, tnd painted butter flirt $f fashion, emulate hit example, and Leave to posterit) the con soling idea that they, too, had been useful. NEW VARIETIES Of Bt'OAR CANE. . Mr. Leonard Wrsr. of Nattl. South Afri ca, recently communicated In tht New York farmers' Club some very interesting facts concerning various specie ol tmphrt, or st- gar plant, (including theVhinese sugar cane,) whiib he discovered trowing wiiii upon me ! touthwgtl coast ol Caflrtf ia, and to intioduct th cultivation of the best varieties for which he has visited this country, at the invitation of the Governor of one of the Southern States, la the locality where the imptee was discover ed it is in common use by the natives as an article of food. Mr. Wt-ay obtained sixteen kinds, of greater or less cacckarine richness. Their names are given as follows; Neear.a as, Geiuseana, Buomvevaaa.Shlageova, Slila gotwlee, Yimbischuapa, Eanamoodee, Zini moonana.Ziinbar.ana. Ebothla.Ethlosa, Cooe- ana, Enrama, Koombana.

Mr. W. has led his horses, came, anupigs on them. 1 heir seed are valuable at leeu for fowls, and excellent bread has been made from the African varieties. Ihelhinese is not so good for this purpose, owing to the bitter pellicle which surround the teed. The seed has also a greater yalus for the manu facture of starch, yielding forty-five per cent, of that article. regard to the density of the tap, Mr. Wrav stated that a trial had been made in Martiniiiue. upon the estate of the Count de Chazelle, to decide the comparative densities of the sugar canes from the celebrated Grand J ere ilis tries and ol Air. w ray's ttnpnet$, both of which had been-growirby the Count. The remit was that the latter showed a den sitv superior to the former by three and one. baff decrees. The sucar cane gave seven degrees Baume, and the imphte ten and a half ilegrees. The quantity of juice to be ebtainetl from the ttalkt depends much upon he power of the mill. Under favorable cir cumstances sewnty percent, may be calcu lated upon, of which seventeen prrcent. will be crystallized sugar. Mr. Wray estimates tjie quantity of sugar at three thousand pound per acre, but botli quantity and quality art ih a measure controlled by the perfection or imperfection of processes of manufacture. MANuracTvaiKO in Tag South. A letter from one of the upper counties of Georgia gives a most flattering account of cotton manufacturing in that Mate. Many of these factories were established some yeart since, and even at the present high prices of the staple are paying the stockholders handsome dividends, seldom, if ever, falline below 20 per cent. The yarns and osnaburgs are of the first quality, and a better description of jcattoe being used in their manufacture, they nnd a mere ready tale in Baltimore, Phila delphia, New York, and Boston than similar psJstof Kaarem wills. Cith cheap to- right in the midst of the cotton-crowing region, illimitable water power, and the most agreeable climate in the world, there is no reason why all the Southern States should nf lut filled with the most flourishing mnntt factories of this kind.

He applied this thought. thit feeling, to the present occasion, in the following eloquent pastajre: " When, therefore, in the distant home wneie I dwell, a..n:u:a i. iiie land of my fathers, I wat honored with a summons to meet you here to-day, I felt that the only appropriate time is now j the only pro per place it Hear:, for the coiiiiiiemoriitiini of the events we would recall, tor on tins dm, fourscore and two rears ago, and on this tpvt, our fathers wrote their part of a large chapter in history, in the brave, but than perilous word Independence." He next passed to the consideration of the American Revolution, that " spectacle of un equalled moral sublimity," which, " whether considered with reference to the motive that prompted it, the men who led it, the patient self denial, and the cheerfully borne sacrifices involved in it, or tlie incredibly marvellous consequences which have flowed Irom it, loomt up before, ut in eolotteti proportion, and tlond unemudled in Ut magnificent gran- yeur.n Prom the Revolution generally, he passed on to a delineation of the character of the people of thia part of North Carolina, their oriirin, framing, and the principles of civil and religious liberty which were instilled in to their minds, more than in any other parts of the colony, from their youth up. We past over, as having neither time nor room for them, brilliant passages relating to the Union, to northern fanaticism, to the southern duty of calm watchfulness, prepara tion for whatever may happen, and a deter mination to stand by the Constitution. " De velope your resources." said he, " tiod has made them turpatsingly great." Open com muuication by railroads, allowing no local rivalries to interfere. The interett of each section of the State is the interest of all. . Of the closing and historical part of the addrctt, we add the following carefully pre pared synopsis, in which we ao not pretend to completeness, but merely to give t general idea of the very interesting facts and argu meats. And we will here remark that we are indebted to Mr eld friend E. J.

There are those who assert that no meet ing was held in Charlotte on the 19th and author Ma v. 1775. and no DecUration ol Independence then and there made ; but that a meeting was held on the 30th of May in that year, in which rertain resolution were adopted, and this constitutes the only action of the people of Mecklenburg during May, l5.

Dr. If. ttsted tint there were certain factt connected with the paper made in Mecklen burg, whether on the SOth or 30th, and irre spective of itt content!, which were establish ed beyond dispute, and had not been contro verted. These were the following: 1. Whatever paper was prepared was made when the newt had just been received in Charlotte of the battle of Lexington i tnd the people assembled in the town were greatly excited by the intelligence. 4. Whatever naner was made was prepttrd upon a call of the people here aswii uld, the larger prt of the inhabitants or Meckleo crying out, " let us' be uufrprndrnl."

IL proceeded to show thtt the paper of the SOth could not hate beta the. only document pn tuicJ in Mecklenburg, in May, 1775, for that in many particulars tlt;t document was utterly iirc. conciluble with .the fniwgning facts. 1.

Inn reached Chirlotte tin the night of the 1 8tk of May, or rather early in the morning of the I'lib gli.it month, in lira. TUl fact, tliereloie, did not harmonize with the claim made for the document of the 30th. . 2. The paper was made in responseto the people's rail, "let ui be independent." Dr. II. argued on tlie improbability that in an swer to uck a call made by an excited rnul titutlc, a paper would be prepared which should contain nothing about independence, and yet that the people should be satisfied with it as a Declaration of Independence. This fiict, therefore, did not seem to agree with the claim made for the document of the 30th, which was jest such as is above des cribed. .... 3. There was a large assembly of the peo ple of the county in Charlotte whew the pa per was prp;ired, and this assemblage con tinued lor part of two days, tome of the wotk having been done in the intervening mailt. Dr. II. then asked what there was in the document of the 30th, or what evidence had ever been produced from any source to show that the meeting ol the 30th sat slso an either the 29th or 31st of May? What proof that any woik was done at night? vhat proof that there was any assemblage ol the people of the county at all on or about the SOtls? what evidence Irom the document itself, or from any other source, that any gentlemen of the county met in Charlotte on that day. except the gentlemen ol the Uommitteef Ihe answer was, that on alt those points not' a particle of testimony had ever been produced to sustain them. 1 his lact, therefore, seem ed inconsistent with the claim made for the document of the 30th. 4. 5. The next known facts were, the doc. ument prepared was publicly read by Col. Thomas Polk, and that itt contentt were preserved at the time, both in writing am? in memory by tome of those present who heard' it. ow, lien, urahain, Kev. n. iiunier and Col. William Polk, of Raleieh, (three more respectable and credible witnesses ne ver lived tny where.) were all present, all heard the paper read, all remembered itt tub- tsnss, Wa.U ImU Bmmm a. -a m .. . S.. . .... at the 20th, and copied the paper read at th time; ami what they remembered and what they copied, did not contain one particle of the document of the 30th ; bat a totally dif ferent paper. Nor, of all those present who heard the paper read, was there, ever found (Hie who retained in memory at what he then heard, the paper of the 30th ; while I great many did remember a totally different docu ment at what they then heard. This fact, therefore, dot not agree with the claim set up for the paper of the 30th. 6. The last fact alluded to was that the document read, according to the testimony ol some twenty witnesses, did contain three most important particulars, expressly aud unequivocally announced j these were, Itt, renunciation of allegiance ; 2d, a declaration of independence ; and 3d", the right of self government. Now, an inspection ot the doc ument ol the 30th will show, that in it, the two particulars first named are not explicitly declared, and the last is not named at all. Hut it declare itt object to be limpljr re gulating the jnrinpntdentt of the province.' From the inconsistency of all these facta with the paper of the 30th, Ur. II. inferred that if the case stopped here, if there were nn further nritof behind, one Would be justi fied in ty ing that the paper of tlie 30th could not be the document reierreu to in facts above siatjd j and therefore, we Plight safely lay it at dc. direct raoor. Having thus removed lor the present the document of the 30lh out of his path, to re turn hereafter to an analysis of it. Dr. II. entered on Ihe direct affirmative testimony, which went to show what the document put forth by the Mecklenburg men as a dctlara lion nf indtptn ltnet that deserved the name, and what the dale at which they issued it. In this part of his argument he took up the following fact, adding the proof for each at he proceeded. I. There was a meetinz tt Chsrlntte, of Alv irrs.) ami one oi me seven icsiines i. ' a ...a.
