A grea apprehension exists with some that the cost ol Plank Roads-will be higher than statements commonly indicate. For our own part we attach but little impor. lance to the question of cost, provided cheap ness has to be obtained-by the sacrifice of any one of the important points that constitute utility, economy and profit, in Plank Road making. On the question of utility, we are of the opinion that that road is the ra useful that is the best constructed, and permits of the easiest transit of freight in the largest jwasibla quantities. To ensure these requisites we have in allife. ses to begin right.4 And in order to have them forcibly-brought to our minds, we will treat them under their appropriate heads, commen- tin" wim engineering. it T i. ..

We are glad to find that the Southern Pa triot," the fearless Ttnd generous supporter of he principles of the Uniop as it is, or, in other words, the Constitution of the United States as it has been for sixty odd years, disdains to join in the general cry of accusation against the General Government, as oppressing, or. perse cuting, or menacing the State of South Carolina. We copy from that paper, (published, a9 our readers know, at Greenvilje, S. C.) under dale of the 1st instant, the following remarks : Nat. Intelligencer. It is high time for the co-operationists, whilst fighting secession, and knowing thai it will bring down on ihe Slate nothing but disaster, and ruin, dishonor, taclose their exaggerated misrep resentations of the oppressions of the Federal Government. They cannot, at the same time, go with the secessionists, and beyond the se cegsionists, in depicting the pretended misery and degredation of ihe people of South Carolina, and then ask them to be quiet and submit to it till other States come to their aid, who have already declared, by overwhelming .majorities, that they will never come under existing cir cumstances These pictures of our wrongs are. untrue, and every where out ot South Carolina they have been pronounced untrue by the Southern peo ple. Were they true, the whole would act as one man, shivering to pieces the Republic, the Union, and the Government. In admitting them to be true, as the distinguished Co-operation leaders do, they arm the secessionists wilh weapons which they cannot resist. It is not in human nature fo bear such wrongs. No honorable man would take his seat in Congress from the South if the Northern members were all a set of cut-throats, incendiaries, and robbers, trying to set our negroes free, steal from us our property, and eel the midnight torch to our houses. Good men and true, who love their country, and who love order, peace, and regulated liber ty, seeking from their public men information, are astonished lo hear such parpable contradic tions in the speeches and addresses of their leading statesmen. They reply, very natu rally, there must be a mistake somewhere. These pictures of Federal oppression and North ern aggression are not true, or the people of the other Southern States would instantly fly to arms and fight their death by ihe side of South Carolina It is high time for the co-operationists to quit this suicidal course.

Solomon Spaulding, to whom I was uni tedjin marriage in early life, was a grad uarje of Dartmouth College, and was dis tinguished for a lively imagination and a great fondness for history. At the time of our marriage he resided in Cherry Val leyj New York. From this place we re moved to New Salem, Ashtabula county, Objo, sometimes called Conneaut, as it is situated on Conneaut creek. Shortly af ter our removal to this place his health sunk, and he was laid aside from active labors. In the town of New Salem there are numerous mounds and forts, supposed by many to be the dilapidated dwellings and. fortifications of a race now extinct. These ancient relics arrest the attention of the new settlers and become objects of research for the curious. Numerous implements were found, and otjier articles evipcing great skill in the arts. Mr. Spaulding being ;an educate! man and passionately fond of history, tok a lively interest in these developmentlpf antiqui ty ; and in order to beguile thse hours of retirement, and furnish employment for his imagination, he conceived (the idea of giving a historical sketch of tki long-lost race. Their extreme antiquity led him to write in the most ancient style; and as theiOld Testament is the most ancient book in the world, he imitated its style as nearly as possible. His sole object in writing this imaginary history was to amuse himself and his neighbors. This was in the year 1812. Hull's surrender at Detroit occurred near and at the same time, and I recollect the date well from that circumstance. As he progressed in his narrative his neighbors" would come in occasionally to hear portions read, and a great interest in the work was excited among them. It claimed to have been written bygone of the lost nation, and to have been recovered from the earth, and assumed the title of" Manuscript Found." The neighbors would often enquire how Mri Spaulding progressed in deciphering the manuscript ; and when he had a suffi cient portion prepared he would itform them, and they would assemble to'hearit read. He was enabled, from his acquint ance with the classics and ancient history, to introduce many singular names, which were particulary noticed by tbe people and could be easily recognised by them. Mr. Solo.mon Spaulding had a brother, Mr. John'SpauIding, residing in the place at the time, who was perfectly familiar with the, work, and repeatedly heard the whole of ijread. From New Salem we remov ed to Pittsburg, in Pennsylvania. Here Mr. Spaulding found a friend and acquaintance in the person of Mr. Pat terson, an editor of a newspaper. He ex hibited his manuscript to Mr. Patterson, who was much pleased with it, and. bor rowed it for perusal. He retained it for a long time, and informed Mr. Spaulding that if he would make out a title-page and preface he would publish it, and it might be a source of profit. This Mr. Spaulding refused to do. Sidney Rigdon, who has figured so largely in the history of the Mormons, was at that time con nected with the printing office of Mr. Pat terson, as is well known in that region, and, as Rigdon himself has frequently sta ted, became acquainted with Mr. Spaul ding's manuscript, and copied it. It was a matter of notoriety and interest to all connected with the printing establishment. At length themanuscript was returned to its author, and soon after we removed to Amity. Washington county, &c, where Mr. Spaulding deceased in 181G. The manuscript then el into my hands, and was carefully preserved. It has frequent ly been examined by my daughter, Mrs. ! M'Knnstry, of Monson Massachusetts, with whom I now reside, and by other " "v- -vuipuuiuii uouoiiess sugges ted the idea of converting it to thepur poses of delusion. Thus a historical ro mance, with the addition of a few pious expressions and extracts from the sacred Scriptures, has been construed into a new Bible, and palmed offupon a company of poor deluded fanatics as Divine.

Mr. Haines ea snares and coulters, was drawn in ope , of the South. uirecuon oy norses, and contrarily by steam. The horses, four very powerful animals, had much labor to drag the im plement, and that only at a slow pace; whilst the engine of 2G horse power, hurried it back as fast as a man could fairly walk to conduct the plough. After several bouts" a subsoil nlouch was at- tached at a gage of 9 and afterwards 121 inches. This additional burden, which the horses could not possibly have drawn, evidently steadied and improved the mo tion, and left the work in a most satisfac tory manner. Harrows were afterwards appended with an equally pleasing re suit. The ploughing took place across old land, which showed in some places i - i . t -I- consioeraDie dips. " Two engines placed parallel at each end of the field would, without difficulty, with only a double plough, complete four acres of land in ten hours, and if required subsoil it too. The work is more effect ively performed, for it must be borne in mind, that land ploughed by steam has this great advantage that there are no indentations or basins left as when plough ed by horses (from the feet) a matter of great importance on clay soils, and where subsoiling is required, an advantage that cannot be too highly appreciated."

Being once at an association, he address ed a minister near him, who was a stran ger, and inquired what kind of a minister they had settled in such a town. He was answered, a man of rather ordinary qual ifications.' At this he wondered that a town of such standing and consequence should settle such a minister. But looking round the room, he saw by the smile on every face that this stranger was no other than the minister in ques tion. After joining in the laugh, he add ing special messengers.

Christian Mirror, cause we suppose the information can be of any practical value in this country, but to show how low both mechanical and agricultural labor, as well as the hire of horses, are estimated, compared with the cost of the same work in this country. The wages of engine drivers, strokers of firemen, ploughmen, and cost of fuel and horse hire must be more than double those of the estimate to command the labor here described in this country. We will now proceed to show the re lative cost of ploughing a field of (say) 24 acres by animal power and by the aid of the steam engines. BY HORSE POWER.
