President Bernard, of Columbia Col lege, has devised a rule that can be re membered, whereby any one can deter mine ou what day of the week any day of anv month aud year will fall, from the adoption of the Georgian Calender (Sept. : 14th, 1752). As it may be ot use to some of vour leaders 1 will give it : l'he first seven letters of the alphabet are set opposite to the tirst seveuulays of January If the Dominical letter is A then the first ot January win ie auuuuy, if B then Jau'v 2nd. &e.

The letter for Nov. 1st is I), for the' 2nd is E; &c.; now E being the Sunday or Dominical letter this year, Nov: 2ud fell oir Sunday and thelston Saturday. The trouble is how to find the Dominical letter. Bernard's rules are as follows : "'-x Divide the number of thccentury by 4, if nothing remains the centurial -is 1, for the remainders It3and3 the ccuturials sue respectively 3, 5 aud 7. To the centu- rial add half of the largest leap year iu the incomplete century, and the comple ment of the years iu,. excess of the leap year Divide the sum by seven, and for the remainders 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and ti the Do minical letters'will be respectively A, li, C, D, E and F, if there is uo remainder the letter will be G.

Which are light we are unprepared to say, but agricultural papers say, that cottou seed eaten before their germinating powers are destroyed are destructive to hogs. The above Mr. Krider is now putting in anew turbine wheel to run his circular saw, which will greatly increase the ca pacity of his mill. Bad weather has set in with us.

Now all Democrats are against him, aud the reas off coes without saying. Thurman, too had it not been for the Ohio election he would have been the next favorite.

It Jbegins tq look as if the protection accorded to tlie partridge iu North Carolina by legis- islative enactment is bearing good fruit. Iii lcJ7G was passed an act forbidding the exportation of patridges from the coun ties of Catawba, Rowan, Guilford, Ala mance, Rockingham, Orange, Iredell, Davie, Gaston, Columbus, Davidson, Ainon and Forsyth, dead or alive, un der penalty of a fine not exceeding fifty dollars, or imprisonment of not more than thirty davs. As turther evidence ot their increase, we may mention mat oi ate we have several tunes this season Hushed small coveys right in our yard.
