The following advertisement is copied verbatim from an old Norwich (England) newspaper, printed by Henry Crossgrove, in the year of 17J9 : u This is to inform my friends and customers, that on Satur day next, this newspaper will be sold for a penny, and be continued at that price ; but advertisements will be still taken in gratis, as formerly. The reason of my raising it to a penny is, because the num ber I print is too prodigious threat to be given away any longer; and I hope none of my customers will thin!: it dear of a penny, since they shall always have the best intelligence, besides oilier diver sions." I he above paragraph has been copied ;ntr manv miners, the readers nf which. I Wc suppose, marvel how cheap news- J p ipers were in that day, and how dear they be now. 1 hey will find, howev er, on examination, that, in this country at least, they are yet dog-chenn, and indeed too badly paid for badlv, in more than one sense of the word to! dford any thing like an adequate com pensation lor the capital and labor em ployed by the publishers, unless an ad vertising custom assists the support derived from subscriptions. The price oi the Daily National Intelligencer to subscribers is three cents and a frac tion each, being about fifty p.r cent. :hun three pence is for the stamp-do tv thereon, but, making that deduction, the price is yet nearly (jundi upkd since tb.e year 1739, and is more than twice tis much as is now paid lor any daiiv newspaper printed in the- United States. It may he said, and we admit tb.e truth of the remark, that more labor is be stowed in general on the London prints, .nd a greater diversity given to their co iter.ts and therefore they are rendered more worth the higher price p dd for them. But to this ue reply, tiiat if American publishers of news papers were but just to themselves, th y would have it in their power to be just also to their readers. If they received a proper price for their dailv or weekly sheets, they would be able to go to greater expense in catering for the public taste, in embellishing their columns with the productions of differ ent hands, and in improving the me chanical branch of the business. It is scarcely credible how many hands are employed in preparing the materials for an English newspaper. For one paper, during the sitting of Parliament, we are informed, a dozen Reporters are employed, of whom it is almost impracticable here to procure one, and still less practicable to compensate him adequately. We meant, however, at present, on ly to say, that, in the United States generally, newspapers are as cheap as they were in England fifty years ago, and a hundred per cent, cheaper (the stamp exclusive) than they are there now. National Intelligencer. JJ.ILLOOJ'S. The question is often asked, whr.t is the use of Balloons ? We answer, the advantages of an art so recently dis covered as yErostation, are not suffi ciently ascertained ; but we in;ty confi dently expect many benefits from it. At any rate, it is at least u unphilcsoph ical to discourage future trials and im provements, because the us-s of this art do not immediately appear.' With a moderate wind a Balloon will travel fifty miles an hour, and even thirty without the wind being felt by the seronaut. A small Balloon might he employed to carry a rope from a vessel blown on shore, by means of which the crew might escape. It might be em ployed to convey persons from places invested and besieged. They serve for important signals at great distances, and to explore from great heights, coasts, armies and fleets. Gen. Jour dan, by means of the information ob tained by Balloons, in 1764, gained the memorable victory of Fleurus. The Balloon employed on that cccctricn," called the Entreprenant, was under the direction of M. Couttl, the captain of Ironauts of 3Iendon. Etienne, ad jutant general of the French arrnv, as scended twice the same clay in this Balloon, two hundred and twenty fath oms, and remained each time fourhours in the air, observing the positions and movements of the enemy. He ccn yeyed his information by means of notes fastened to arrows. When this enterprize was discovered hy the ene my, they opened a fire against the ascending- iEronauts, but they were soon out of the reach of their fire. During the same campaign, Balloons, the heav iest of which weighed one hundred and sixty pounds, were prepared for the other armies, and alr.o an Erostatic telegraph. Essex Register. LATEST OF LA FAYETTE. FftOM TilE CHHISTIiX SrrXTATOU. The Jbllozving r.v tin extract from a letter (Lzred Parisy Airil 25;, 1821. aJij Dear Friend : We have just re turned from a visjt v. hich lias given us much pleasure. This you will readily believe when I tell you it was to the Marquis de L.a Fayette anamewh ch will ever be dear to Americans, asso ciated as it is with that of the Father of our Country, We were received by him with the kindness and courtly affability for which he is so much dis tinguished. Although he is now ap proaching three score and ten, yet his gait and motions have the sprightli ness and agility of a man of thirty, with the exception, however, of a slight lameness in one hip, occasioned by a fall. Me is quite tall, being full six fet-t, if r.ot more firmly, rather than hi nt large, hut not corpu-. lent. liis upright figure, broad shoul ders, and p-ornpt manner, shew that there is stiii something of the soldier left. He has fine hazie eyes, to ap pearance entirely unimpaired by age, alternate -Iv li.'.shin with the fire of in telligence, or softeni: g into the mild expression of kindness projecting eyebrows, a high long nose bordering upon aqueiine and yet rather fieshv very fine teeth and a health)' counte nance. His dress was entirely unornament ed, and u uhout any badge of nobility, consisting of a short grey surtout with covered buttons, a white vest, blue pan taloons, his linen being without ruffs, and his cravat carelessly tied m a sin gle knot. His residenct is very re spectably, yet plainly and characteris tically furnished ; and the room where we were, was decorated in a manner a little calculated to flatter our vanitv. On one side of the door hung the Dec laration of the Ilights of French citi zens, as established in '89, exhibited on a single sheet, and set in a plain frame ; on the other side of the door, was the Constitution of the United States, similarly executed and framed ; and at a little distance from this, was a fine pvint of Canova's statue of Wash ington, which I had recently seen at Home. In reply to an inquiry respect ing the strength of the likeness, the Marquis said in English, which he speaks quite well, that he thought it very good, abating for the artist's de sire to make it as perfect a piece of sculpture as possible. He showed us, however, a has relief in gold upon the lid of a snuff box, which he said he considered the best likeness he had ev er seen of the " General," as he famil iarly called him. They both bear a strong resemblance to tiiose we com monly see in our country, and that on the box was very like the one in the " Washington Family,5' with which you are familiar. The Marquis manifested considera ble interest in the affairs of Naples and Piedmont, and made several inquiries concerning them, observing, however. that their behaviour hid shewn them unfit for a better government. To a friend, while conversing Qn the conduct of America to her revolutionary sol diers, he remarked, that he had no rea son to complain cf ingratitude, and that the estate he now enjoyed was the fruit of her generosity. During the j era of vicissitudes and troubles in ) France, his own possessions and these of his lady were confiscated, and he was left almost entirely without resources. Through the instrumentality ?r Mr. ' Jefferson, then our Envoy at the French Court, valuable and saleable lands were allotted to him by government for his services. With the avails of these, he purchased back a part of his wife's pa trimonial estate, the Chateau of La Grange Blessneau, upon which he lives in retirement and comfort during the recess of the Chamber of Deputies. Of this body he is at present a mem ber, and, associated with Benjmin Constant, he has a controlling influence in the opposition. The opinion whiclr the loyalists entertain of his impor tance here, is manifest from the stren uous and determined efforts they made. during the last election, to keep him out of the House. But, greatly to their mortification, he was elected from two departments at the same time, so that one seat yet remains vacant in con sequence of this struggle. Perhaps there is ho man of eminence: in France, now living, with the excep tion of Talleyrand, who has passed through such vicissitudes, of almost every kind, as La Fayette. But, while Talleyrand has safely wormed his way through, by cunning and duplicity, Ea, Fayette has stood, like a monument consecrated to political virtue, which all have been afraid to violate ; or, ra ther, like an immoveable rock, around which revolutionary tempests have raged in vain, and their billows fallen harmless at his feet.

It is generally a custom among far mers, in the process of making butter, to churn without any regularity of mo tion ; sometimes fast, and sometimes slow. The churn is shifted from one person to another until the butter "comes." But it is not generally known, that an irregularity of motion always, more or less, impedes the pro cess, insomuch that it often becomes te dious, and the churning continues two hours instead of one. Those who wish to have their butter good, and to come quick, " Should by no means,' says ?lr. Cutbush, "suffer any person to assist them in churning, unless from, absolute necessity: for, if the churn ing be irregularly performed, the but ter will, in winter, -0 back; and, if the agitation be more quick and violent in summer, it will cause the butter to fer ment, and thus to acquire a very disa greeable flavor." These remarks of Mr. Cutbush agree very well with my own observations. Butter seldom keeps fresh, in the summer, more than two or three days, when there are two or more person engaged in the churn ing Cream should on no account be churned in the middle. of a summer's day, but only early in the morning or late in the evening. Regularity of motion should be particularly attended to ; and the warmer the atmosphere the slower should be the churning. If, during the process, the cream should be heated to 85 or 90, it will ferment, and the butter will acquire a disagree able flavor. When the cream is at no time heated to more than 75, the but ter will not only be much harder, but, with the addition of a little salt, will keep fresh considerably longer. There is one thing of much impor tance, to which our dairymen seldom if ever attend: Should a gallon of milk be put into a dish, with a foot di ameter at the surface of the fluid, and another gallon into a dish with five or six inches diameter, one third more cream may be expected from the for mer, and cf as good quality. Hence the shallower the dish the more cream will arise to the surface of the mi' "The consistence of cream.'
