In teeming Indian corn, two met hud are ' commonly used; Ivhs Brat, it tu top lie com, by cutting the stalk imme diately above the ear, and this it usually - done at anon at the grain it glazed, though s me farmers soarcely.wiit for lhi. 'I l e second, it to cut up the corn by the bottom at toon at the -ear it glazed, binl the atalkt and cart in small fondles, let thrro up, and let them atand till thorough ly cored. In the first, method only the tipper part of the stalk it taved for fodder, but the corn ripent finely, nothing can be more beautiful than a field in which the )iutktliae fallen from tlieripened grain, " and the thick golden cart give a promise of the rich harvrtt at hand. Still we pre . fer the, second method, and that from ample experience of both. We have our corn cut op by the bottom, because in that way we tave the whole of the stalk for fodder, . and that it do unimportant matter to the farmer. '. In toppineonly the poorest part of the stalk it saved, fur if cut and cored properly there it tio- more nutritious food for animals than the ttalk ol corn. It it true, when very large, cattle and theep are unable to eat themj but it -converted into chair by a ruttingmachinr, at they can ea- tily be, there it no food eaten more readi ly, or with more profit. It it notliazard ing much to aay that there it more value in an acre of corn-stalks cot by the bottom and properly fed out, than in'an acre of or " dinarr bar, and no farmer can afford to ' dispense with inch in item an providing for on sioc. out me saving in ine stain is not all) experiments show that there is gain in the grain of nearly twenty per cent in cuttina by the bottom, in prefer ence to topping.

In one made br Mr. Clark, he found the yield per aere of the corn topped, to be 47 bush. 18 lbs., and the un topped, bO bush 81b. From some experiments instituted by ourselves tnere wat no difference ol lonsequence in the product, when the corn wat left on the . untouched ttalkt till harvest, and when they trera u- kj, ika Knl uum mftor lh m n wat well glazed, but that both these meth od! give a greater produce than when top ped in the usual manner. It it laid that when corn it topped, and after the corn is gathered, that cattle will eat all that is valuable of the stalks, as they stand in the field. Thit it certainly a mistake, at the moat nutritiout part, the main ttalk itself, it generally left untouched by them. If the corn crop is well manured, at it should be, the cultivation of the teaton tt an ex cellent pieparation for wheat, and some of the belt farmers of our country use the coro drop for this purpose.

IIORSE AND COVVT A horse costs the price of three cows. The annual expense of keeping him is s bout three time aa much, including the shoeing. He is worn out, or nearly loses his value in ten years, which is a losstif ten per cent, per annum -upon the cost. Thus if we give' for him seventy five dol lars, whst is gone in ten years keeping and shoeing, say forty dollars a year, is in ten years four hundred dollars, making four hundred seventy-five dollars in all. Thus, for every horse n farmer may keep beyond what it necessary for farm wotk, is equal to forty-seven doliors fifty cents oat of pocket esch year. Upon Doc tor Franklin's calculation that penny sav ed is eqosl to two earned, this t47 50 is equal to t9J 00! for if we lose or expend $47 BO it is gone out of pocket, and we have to earn-that amount before we can possess it. Now had we saved it, and put it with the sama amount earned, it would come to ninety-five dollars as plain as ran be made. Let ut now look after the cow.

While many of the Regency presses in this State are affecting friendship for the protective system; while Mr R. D.

Will tire North sustain a nun who, at the South, "denounces and disclaims" our protective Tariff? Will, the South vote for a candidalo who, at the North, affects to favor a Protective Tariff? Will the People support or confide in n pub lic man who "palters with them in this dou ble sense," and who maintains, doctrine in one quarter of the Union which he repudiates in another? At least let the people of New England ami New York be warned in time bv the Richmond disclosure. Let them look ground and see how every intei est is prospering nn deride Whig Tariff. Let them mark the healthful stimulus which the Tariff has giv en to manulactures; the incieased activity which it has communicated to trade and commerce; the restorative influence which it exerted upon public credit and private en terprize, and the magical change w!ch i has wrought, in inn short Vi months, in the whole aspect and condition of the country And seeing and feeling all these things let them remember too that Martin Van Buren, the chosen champion of the Loco toco par ty at the North, "UTTERLY DENOUN CES AND DISCLAIMS THE PRES ENT TARIFF."

Of those who hold over, the Locofocos had 11, Whigs, secu ring n Locofoco majority of rout ui inn Demitc, reiainea u inter the op eration of the districting system. . . . Of Tl members of the House of Re pre resentaiives, the Whigs have elected Ctt the Locofocos 30 and ihree indepemlenl men have heen elected in opposition to the regular Locofoco candidates, under circumstances which induce us to belief, that on all great questions which divider the two parties they will act with the Whigs. Under this expectation we ckiat a majority of eight on joint ballot. This result is sufficient to arrest the march of corruption. The different com plexion of the two Houses, produced as before explained, willdisappoiiitihe hopes of many who had fondly expected tLt the ensuing election would give the peo ple a Legislature which Vpuld justify and honesty represent their wjishes. But courage friends! This evil will now be corrected by a fair districting of the Slate; Bad legislation will be prevented: s N IprosDecrtt'e law to bolster up demagogues can be passed. And we may add, from the times, both in our own State and a mong the sisters who have recently held their elections, a favorable augury maybe drawn, promisrhig nothing loss than the election of the Whig nominee for tbe Pres idency in 1844. At all events, in theoame ofour Whig- follow citizens, we pledge 0!u for such a result. ' ' , - JOSEPH RIDGWAY, ROBERT NEIL, JOHN A. LAZELL, : LEWIS HEYL. JOHN GREENWOOD, WILLIAM ARMSTRONG, O. W.
