But the science, the theory jtil'agri culltir, is not well understood. Agricul tural science, embraces a cphsiderable number of other sciences. Indeed,! it is a corn jbfhat ion of sciences4, Cof there are ve ry few that do not enter Jrito the pfactfee ofihejfarmer. He may not khowlit, but it is trie, nevertheless. Let us enumerate lhera The farmer should be a chemist, mineralogist, and geologist, because he practices these sciences every day of his life, whether heknpws it or not.' He should be a botanist, for he practices it very larger ly ; hi shoatd be Physician, for he has frequejnt crccasioh td report to this sct encej, oh irj man and beast ; he should be ab. etymologist, fori no' class or profession has Wch interest n this branch of know ivde lis th$ farmer ; he should bk welt yrslfjin mlural history, and he often is, without knot wiii able of itstheoreti- t:al rirmciplls ; he shouid be 5n dstrono mer, ard this too he is quite too often (ignor ant he should be a political economist, for in im,at last, the public welfare takes refugein all its troubles, and from im it derive its strength the enlighteneld far mers constitute the State. If agriculture J)e a science composed ol all sciences, it is also an art composed ot or composing nearly ill other arts. The farmer bught to be, ad frequently is a blacksmith, i some', of his jfajnify are bakers and brewers ; be i4 .:4 carpenter, a tbachtnist,;and j quite freqqe4ily an engineer. Now, if all this be tric what classlof the" human family requireg so general anil so thorough an ed ucation as the farmer, to make them mas ters of their profession ? It. sterns to the writer hat the world acts mst prepos teroUsl in rjestowing a thorough liberal educatfon upon those who are to practice a singlf simple science, and withholding it from him who is to practice all the sciences and all the arts. Farmers, them selves, are too aptto take the same course by educating at a university .one of their sons who is destined to be a lawyer or a doctor and contenting themselves with, givingjheir bthjer sons and daughters, who are to be farmers and farmers' ?wives, the! simpjeit of a country School education. r " Doctoring and lawyering comes from educaton, and farming by nature," a re mark actually made to me by an old and respectable ifarmer.S That even the art of farming is incapable of easy and quick acqujrtpentjevery fartiner know; but that the science, the theory of farming, as well as the handicraft, should be expected to be obtained more easily, and in less time than tbjose of the otjier professions, Isj of all human errors, the thost unaccountable. It is trtle, the boy raised upon alarm, and diligently performing! the usual labors of a forking farmer, will acquire the handicraft of the art by the time he is of lawful age, withoutjthe aid of school edu-cation-frhe may do sol without ibeing able to write his name. Q.ut then what sort of farmers he 7 A mere mechanical opera tor, who is obliged to follow the patterns and examples of his predecessors, being incapale of improvjrjg them in forni or substarfce, not knowing anything of the theory of tlieir operation, or upon Jwhat principles they may: be changed fojr the better.

But the greater interests, such as makintr. v ing. and applying renovatorsi lime, &c) arid mixing soils ;! these all require a knowledge of chemistry.' theoretical and practical. There are but few farms that have not different qualities of soil, in dif. fereni places, in excess. . Here, a low, sour' bottom, there an arid sand bill; here, a dead clay, and by, the side of that rtver a wide margin of black .vegetable mould.

If he be in doubt whether ihe isoils of his various fields phiain the ne cessary quantity of lime, how Easily can he ascertain that fact, and if they do not,ap ply the proper quahjity ofuhis renovator.

Agenjeral knowl edge of chemistry iand the (kindred sci ences would also put an effectual stop to blindfbjd and costly experiments. It would also put a st4p to universal agri Cultural panaceas.

A correspondent furnishes us with the follow. ing authentic: anecdote of Gen. Scott. It re lates to a period of hi! history when materials are not superabundant : f In the Wintefr of I838 and '3d, Gen. Scott was sommoned to thle War Department at Washington, and there told he must proceed lo the frontier lines on the Niagara; River, and but a stop to the interference of American citi zens with tbe Canadian Government, and asked how long before he could be ready. His an swer was, in half an hour. His arrival in Bui jalo was in the.' afternoMi, where he took charge of the militia and volunteer companies which lad been ordered in from the neighboring coun lies, together with wfaajfew Government troops were stationed in the barracks at that place and ordered them down to the village ot Black Rock tWU ttilU tt liclll.

On on-4and the pursuer reached the farm jthree miles aboe the jt1 alls; and during that house on the road side- Their passing startled and the Jbllowiug day ! brought off the Patriot ! a flock of geese from a fence corner which, as army, which bad taken up its rendezvous on the island consisting mostly of American cii izeriSi beaded by Gen. 'Van Rensselaer taking their: arms from and disponing them in squads iof sii or eight, as they rwere brought off. ua" ou a on or t story, havinir no connection with politics. thi h of. ftrv tVonrKiar 7 uy ;pertntsspon- Old Col. D , off tbe Mobile district, was one of the most singular characters ever Known in abanra. H jvas testy and eccen trie, but possessed many fine qualiiies. which were fully appreciated by the people of that di. trict. Many of his freaks are afresh in the memory of (he "old unsof Mobile, and all of them will tell you that the Colonel though hard to beat, waunce terribly taken in by a couple of legal tyres. It is George Woodward, I be), lieve tells tfc story, but however that may be its in keeping with others related of the old geu-tleman.- ': ; j II seems that Colonel D. - had h$d a misunderstanding with the two gentlernen allu ded to and vas not on speaking terms with then), although all of the three were profession ally riding t ie circuit yreStiy much together. The young ones being wejl aware of the Col. onej's irascible nature, determined as they left otfe of tliAMcouits for another, to have some sporl at his ?ipense by tie way. Theyaccor- dingly got aiout half an hour's start in leaving and, presen ly they arrived at a broad dark stream, that looked as if it might be a doz en feet deep but which ; in reality was not more than us many inches. Crossing it they alighted, pulling off their coats and boots, and sal own quietly to watch tbe old "Tartar." JQg2'llg "long, at length, up came the old fellow. He looked first at tbe youngsters who were gravely drawing on their boot and coats as if they bad just had a swim and then be looked al tbe broad creek (bat rolled be. fore bim like a fluent, translucent star. The Colonel was awfully puzzled. ; " Is this f creek swimming ?" he growl ed after a pnue of some moments. No reply was made the yoinng men simply mounted their horses, and rode oh? some hull? distance, aud stopped to watch the he ro. . , j The Col. slowly divested himself of boots, coat, pantaloons and drawers. These be neat ly tied up in his handkerchief, and bung them on the horn of his saddle. Then be remounted and as he was a fat, short man with a paunch of inordinate size, rather inadequate legs, a face like a a withered appte, and a brown 'ig, there is no doubt he made an interesting picture as be bestrode his steed, " breeze holding gen. tie dallianco " with tbe lower extremities of bis only garment. ' Slowly and cautiously did the old gentleman and his horse take the creek. Hall a length and the water was not fetlock deep. Here the horse stopped to drink. At a length and a half and nt deeper ? Thirty feel further, and a decided sh oaling ! ! i Here Colonel D reigned up. . "There must, said be, be a h 1 of a swift deep chan nel between that and the bank see how the water runs 1 We will dash through. 4 sharp lash made the horse spring tbe " wa tery waste;' and another carried the horse and rider safely to the opposite bank. The creek was nowhere more than a foot deep. A wild yell from the Young ones announced their appreciation of the sport as they galloped away. " I'll catch you, you rascals !" was ground between Col. D 's teeth away he galloped in hot pursuit, muttering vengeance on his foes. On on they sped 1 pursuer and pursued, the - !

On his return to Black Rock, he found two Canadian arnted schooners lying Sat anchor,: for the pupose, as be was informed, of molesting and detaining the steamboat Barcelona which had gone down the rir.er, as the Canadians sup jposed1jor the purpose of taking arms and amu niiion from Navy Island up the Lake, where another rendezvous was in contemplation. Gen. Scott dispatched a messenger to Col. Kirby of jtbe Canadian Army, being the Highest in com imand at that rioint. with intelligence that the Barcelona was private' property, navigating the j river for whom it mav concern, and that sne had nothing to do with the Navy Inlanders. The messenger received for answer, I dou 1 icommafid, and therefore cannot be answerable jfor what may be done. He then sent the same message on beard each ot tbe schooners, ana rnroivd for answer. " We have received our brders and shall obey them."
