Jtion 1 exposed by history; for. prior to American

'!. nther Government, had advanced even one-tenth
of "the ratio that all have progressed in since the
Revolution. This very inconsistent writer soon con
traiii i-ts himself, for he says, " To assert that a Rcpub

"rilnpritv of America, would be absurd." The au
thor nroceeds to prophecy that the gold mines of

iccunuldion of great wealth in the hands of individ
uals must lead to the ruin of the R.'public and the

why the pold mines of America -should be more fatal
to her liberties than the coal, the copper, or the iron

Niagara Whirlpool This whirlnool. which is
several miles below the Falls of Niagara, is a larcre
deep basin about the size of Primrose Hilir at the back
ol Chalk Farm, in which the waters of the migthy St..
Lawrence revolve in one perpetual whirl, caused by
their being obstructed by an angle of the steep and
ureary DanKs wnich overhang this dreadfu p ace.
iir. vv auace, tne hi acksmith, had a soq, a fine youth,
who one day went down to the whirlpool, and the cur
rent proving too strong for him. he was carried into
the whirl. His poor distracted mother sat on the
gloomy bank for hours and days, and beheld the body
of her darling carried round in a circle by the water,
sometimes disappearing lora time and then coming up
aiiu revolving upon the surlace ol his watery grave,
and thus continuing for several days, no human aid
oeing avaiiaoieeven to obtain his remains. Alter
five or six days, bodies which get into this dismal-cauldron
are carried llown the river. It is usuat for per
sons rafting timber from places between the Falls and
the Whirlpool, to get off the raft before they come to
me ijuhim, nrsi piacmg tne ratt in such a position as
may oe?t enatiie.it to float down the stream without
being carried into the whirl. On one occasion how
ever, one of the ml tsmen refused to leave the raft-he
was not afraid, all would go safe; entreaty was una
vailing, and the raft, with the unfortunate man upon
it, made its way downwards, and was soon drawn
within the latal circle, around which for three davs
and three nights it continued to revolve, ail the efforts
ot a thusand anxious snectators nrovino- unavailing.
The continual and sickening motion he underwent,
robbed the poor sufferer of all oower to eat sleetxhe

night, in such a place. At last a man was found who
ventured into die whirl as far as he could, with the
hopes 01 life, a strong rope being tied around his mid
dle, one end of which was on shore. He carried a line
to throw to the raft, and in this way he was drawn oh

Sufferings of a Shivrecked Party in Noca Zem
Ola. Snow storms soon blocked up their hut, an ! the
com Decamc so intense they could hardly endure it.
Linen froze in an instant when taken out of warm
water. The closeness of the hut nearly suffocated them
trom the smoke; and if the fire became low, the walls
were soon covered with thin ice ; even the beds lined
with it. Except when employed in cooking, they lay
constantly in their beds. Often times they heard tre

7tfj J3ec. they went on board ther ship lor some coals
ami made up a good fire m the evening, which gave
them much comfort. They had a narrow escape,
however, from the vapour; for, closing every aperture
of the hut to keep in the heat as much as possible, a
seaman who was indisposed first complained of not
leing able to bear it, and then they were all attacked
with vertigo and could scarcely stand, until the door
was opened, when the first, who reached.jt fell down
faint on the snow. On the 19th of December the sea
men's shoes were frozen so hard that they could not bn
worn, and they made themselves slippers of skins, and
put on several pair of socks to keep their feet in heat.
The ice was an inch thick on the sides of their hut,
and when they went out in clear yveather their clothes
became white with frost and ice. They had stormy
weather till about the 15th of January, during which
time they confined themselves to their hut. They
heard the foxes running over their heads, but could
not catch them, which they regretted, as their provi
sions were beginning to Tun short. The intense cold
absorbed every other sensation. They applied hot
stones to their feet and bodies to keep them warm,
comforting themselves that now the sun was about
returning to theni, with a little patience he would
warm and gladden them again with his beams.
Even sitting before their fire their backs would become
white with frost, while their stockings would be bur ned
before they could feel he heat to their feet. Ship

Female Emigrants. Tuesday morning a num

witness the embarkation of about 250 females on

Important for ih? Soldier. (From a Correspon
dent.) The following is a mode in which a fair
haired huzzar officer dyes his mustahios black. He.
gets a piece of silk varnished with a shining varnish
01 one side, and plain on the other. This is bought
at the umbrella shops, and is called umbrella oiled
silk. A niece of this is cnt about five inches lono1.
and three inches wide, and four string of tape are then
attacneo to it, ne at each corner. A hole is then
cot through the middle of the silk to correspond with
the mouth of the natient. On t hat nortion of the
plain side of the silk which is to go immediately over
the mustachio's, is spread a small quantity of a cream
coloured powdrr. and the natient. before he oes to
bed, ties on this silk, with the plain side towards his
face, and the varnished side outwards. He wears it
all night like a mask over the lower part of his face,
and in the morning when it is taken off, the musta
chious are of a black colour. This operation requires
to be repeated once a fortnight, but the mustachios
should be brushed several times a day with a small
brush made on purpose. The common soldiers use
a cheaper sort of dye, and instead of silk, each has
a cabbage leaf tied over tm mouth all night.
Russian Policy in hiteraturt. The cultivation
of Original Literature in Russia is rapidly advan
cing, and the government affords every encourage
ment to its extension. At the lae public examina
tion of the classes of the Original Institute, at St.
Petereburgh, the Vice Chancellor (Count Nesselrole)
was eoalelighted with the progress of the students,
that he made a special report on the subject to the
Emperor. In consequence, Professors Charmony
and Demurige, have b'en madeKnishts of theOrder
of Wladimir, of the third class, and Miiza Djafar, a
Tartar from the Caucasian provinces, who assists M.
Charmony in teaching Persian, has received the
cross of St. Anne, ol the second class. The four
pupils who mast distinguished themselves were each
presented with a diamond rang. These are not the
only symptoms of Russia directing her views to the
supremacy of Central Asia.
Fall Ploughing. A gentleman called up
on us a few days since, and gave us an account
of an experiment he was making the present
season, to prove whether spring or fall plough
ing of sward land for corn was the most profi
table.
He stated that he had a field in which the
soil'was very uniform : that he ploughed one
half of it last fall laying the furrows as flat as
possible ; the other half he ploughed this spring.
In preparing that part which he ploughed in
the fall for planting, he had cross ploughed a
part of it, breaking up the sod, and a part of
it he had prepared by harrowing, without dis
turbing the sod. He had also managed that
which was ploughed in the spring, in the same
way
He said, so far, the .corn which was planted
upon that part of the field which was ploughed
in the fall, and prepared by dragging,.was more
forward, and of a better color, than that which
was propared by cross-ploughing, either part
of the field ploughed looked better than that
whieJi was ploughed in the spring.
He gave his opinion decidedly in favor of fall
ploughing, as being more economical with re
gard to team work that it was more easily
cultivated -and that the crops would undoubt
edly le better.
. We wish others, who have fall and spring
ploughed lands Under cultivation, would let us
know what success has attended each, and also
thequality of lands so ploughed, and whether
they cross ploughed so as to break up the
sward, or whether they allowed that to remain
at the bottom as when turned over. Good

Food for Oxen and other Cattle.. Ev
ery traveller who passes Alsfett. a little town
near Frankfort, in Germany,'has noticed the re
markably fine cattle of that place, who are fed
in the following manner.
Straw is cut short by means of a straw cutter ;
is then put into a cauldron, with the addition of
potatoes and carrots, and boiled till it forms a
jelly; this mixed with a sumcieni quantity ui
water, is served to the beast. The animal so
fed requires no water, and so well do tney
thrive on this mess, that they are, notwithstan
ding the summer labor, ready for the butcher
at the end of the year.
Grind all sorts of grain which is intended to
be given to cattle or horses. In order to obtain
the greatest benefit from it, boil it in water, and
while hot add cut straw,stirring it well, and
when cool it will be fit to feed out.
The following observations upon fattening
cattle were published by Nathaniel L,anaon, 01
Litchfield, Conn. He says, " I boiled about two
f flaYPPfl. and snrinkled it on cut
straw which I had previously scalded and sea
soned with salt, together with some oil-cake
and oatmeal, working them in a tub with a
short pitchfork, until the whole became an ouy
mush. I fed a three-year old heifer regularly in
this way, about two months, w.en she had ea
ten about one bushel of flaxseed, with the oth
r inffrpdients in proportion. When she was
I chD rooitrhpil lbs,. 84 lbs. of
which were tallow. She would not have sold
for more than $16 before fattening. I sold two
artr for 18 13. She cost me not more
than 10, exclusive of the hay she ate, which
was chiefly scalded as above.
On thp first of February I began withati ox
I fed him about three months, but not altogether
c as f did the heifer. He digested abou
one pint of flaxseed per day, prepared as abpve
which I suppose formed about one half of the
fat in these two cattle. The ox was short,

Pninff tntL two catlle was more thin all Ha
cleared before in fattening oxen and cows, for

to the use of flaxseed.
Radishes. Mo-4 of out garden grounds are
too rich for the radish; and but few gardens
are found that do not contain more or less of
the wire worm. Hence we are induced to make
experiments until we have raised them at least
semi-transparent and as brittle as glass. Our
method i, merely to mix two parts of sand
with one part of common garden earth, and add
a small quantity of stable manure; or earth
of a clayey nature is preferable Ui the garden
earth. Since adopting the above method, we
have not failed in a single instance of raising
an abundance of smooth, clear, and fine flavored
radishes. Hingham Gazette.
Roasting Potatoes. A good and easy
mode of roasting potatoes, apples-or eggs, by
steam :
Take your potatoes, or whatever you wish
to roast, and after washing them clean wrap
them up in a paper two or three times over;
when this is done put them in a can of water,
and squeeze them until the paper is wet to the
potato; squeeze them well, and after making
a place in the embers, lay them n and cover
them with hot ashes with no coals; after they
have lain a proper time, take them out, and
the paper will be found to be perfectly dry, and
not burnt, and on opening the paper it will be
found to be very hot and damp the nearer vou
go to the potato; the potato will be found to be
soft and clean, and peal much easier and clean
er than when boiled. An Irish potato when
boiled loses half its sweetness, but when pre
pared in this manner it does not lose its sweet
ness but is better .tasted every way. Apples
roasted in this way are not like what they are
when baked, black and burnt, but have a beau
tiful brown cast. Eggs prepared in tjhis way
are very toothsome, and will cook in a less
time than when boiling, with good embers.

Brother Jonathan's Wife's advice to her
DAUGHTER ON THE DAY OF HER 'MARRIAGE.-
Now, Mary, as you are about to leave us, a few
words seem appropriate to the occasion. ! Al
though I regret the separation, yet I am pleased
hat your prospects are good. You must not
believe that all before you are Elysian Fields.
Toil, care and trouble, are the "companions of
frail human nature. Old connections will be
issolved by distance, time, and death. New
ones will be formed. Every thing pertaining
to this life is on the change.
A well cultivated rnind, united with a plea
sant, easy disposition, is the greatest accom
plishment in a lady. I have endeavored, from
the first to the present moment, to bring you
up in such a manner as to form you for useful
ness in society. Woman was never made
merely to see and be seen ; but to fill an impor
tant space in the great chain of nature, planned
and formed bv the Almighty Parent of the Uni
verse. You have been educated in habits of
industry, frugality, economy and neatness, and
in these you have not disappointed me.
It is for the man to provide and for the wife
to care and see that every thing, within her cir
cle of movement, is done in order and season;
therefore let method and order be considered
important. A place for every thing, and every
thing in its place a time for every thing and
every thing in its time are good family mottoes.
A thorough knowledge ot every kind of busi
ness appropriate to the kitchen is indispensa
ble, for without such knowledge, a lady is inca
pable of the management of her own business
and is liable to imposition by her servants eve
ry day. But in these things you have been in
structed. You will be mistress of vour own house, and
observe the rules in which you have been edu
cated. You will endeavor, above all things, to
make your fireside the most agreeable place for
the man of your choice. Pleasantry and a hap
py disposition will everbe consideredas neces
sary to this important end"; but a foolish fond
ness is disgusting to all. Let reason and com
mon sense ever guide : these, aided by a plea
sant frieflydly disposition, render life happy; and
without thee, it is not desirable. Remember
your cousin Eliza. She married with the bright
est prospects , but, lrom her petulant, peevish,
and complaining disposition, and negligence,
every thing went wrong; and her home became
a place of disquietude to her husband. I o
avoid this, he sought a place to pass away va
cant time, where, associated with those more
wicked than himself, he contracted the habit of
intemperance, and all was lost and poor Eliza
was thrown on the chanty ot her friends.
Be pleasant and obliging to your neighbors
ready to grant assistance, when necessary.
Be careful of their characters, and riot readily
believe an ill report. Throw the mantle of
charity over their failings, knowing that we are
all human and liable to err. Abhor a tattler,
and gi?e no place to the report of such. How
ever strong a provocation maybe, never con
tend for the last word.
Let vour bible show that it is used. Give no
ml
place to novels in your library. Lei history,
biography, and travels, be read, when timeand
opportunity admit-1 without interfering with
the important duties of the family. Be not ig
norant of the events of the time being, there
fore read some Journal of the day.
As to friends who may call on you never be
them with nos-
pitalitv and politeness"; and endeavor to make
them happy in their own way. Never teaze
them to do this, or that, wmcu iuc " r
fer. True politeness consists ui j
anu
pleasant deportment, and making our menus
easy, and permitting them to enjoy themselves
xi,ich is most pleasing to them.
SpeaTi with'deliberation. The other sex tell j

us that, " the female tongue is never tired ;" be
it so : let it be regulated by reason and common
sense.
At the close of the week, if possible, let all
your work, for the time be done ; so that on
Sunday you may improve your hours in such a
manner as will be appropriate to the day, and
never, extraordinaries excepted, let your seat
be vacated at church.
As to dress : decency is becoming to all, out
extravagance opens a door to want follow the
asnions ot the day so far as decencv and good.

not troubled for what vou have not: but be
nanKiui lor, and take care uf what vou have.
A Leghorn hat, loaded with flowers, will not
cure the headache, nor a gold watch prevent the
consumption.
Avoid night-meetings, at private house?.
where every one is priest. These, I fear, have
tendency to affect the passions more than
mend the heart. Who knows the resting placr
of an enthusiastic and fanatic mind ! Let your
evenings generally be spent at home.
As you have attended to the study of Botanv
and discovered a taste for flowers, I would not
by any means draw your attention from so in
nocent and pleasing an amusement. But let
your garden be small, well laid out? and the
plants selected to your taste. See to the man
agement of it yourself. It is a pleasant exer
cise, productive of health of body and seronity
ot mind. Lei the order, neatness, and the dis
play of beauty in your garden, be the index to
What mav be seen in vour house.
One thing more ; the management of domes
tics. See that all things go right in the kitch
en. Let every thing be done according to or
der. ;ever disDUtewith a servant in whatwav
a thing shall be done. Let your commands be
promptly obeyed. Observe a mild dignity; but
avoid all improper familiarity with those who
may be placed under you. Be never hasty and
impetuous; but calm and deliberate. Reprove
when necessary, with mildness and determina
tio'n ; but never make a long harangue about
matters of minor importance. Too much re
proof, especially if delivered in a passion, or
high tone of voice, is apt to loose its desired ef
fect, and produce reaction on the part of the de-
pendent. Dignity, decision and condescension,
must be assimilated in such a manner as tu
command respect. Undue severity will so op
erate on the mind of the domestics asto destroy
respect, and create disaffection and hatred.
Never charge a domestic with lying without ir
refragable proof then punish or dismiss him.
To say frequntly and upon all occasions to a
domestic, ' you lie,1 is perfectly ridiculous,
and has an evir tenderiey; If he be a liar you
harden him ; if Otherwise, you injure his feel
ings and destroy his confidence,
I have done you have my best wishes.
