'We meke <be. following extracts from Prof.
L»w*s Elements of Practical Agriculture, to
»*rangthen the recommendation we have fre
«f«ently made, of making hay in the cock.—
Tbis mode we consider entitled to prefer¬
ence, for the substantial reasons, that the hay
thus made requires less labor, is less liable to
iajory from rain and dew, is less exposed to
tbs wasting effects of a hot sun, retains more
•f its juices, and is more sweet, fragrant, and
®f better color, than when cured in the ordi¬
nary tvay.
"The swaths lie for a short time to wither,
are then turned gently over by a fork or
fche handle of a hay rake, in such a manner
UiAt they shall not be broken or spread a- jeumstances will allow- When we are ©na-
broad. In 24 hours or more afterwards, theyibled to do this, the hay will be sweet, Ira-
way be put into small heaps or cocks, on ev-jgrant, and of a greenish oolorc

■L
ery third or fifth ridge, according to the bulk,
of the crop, the ground being at the same*
time carefully raked.
" It is a good practice to put up the hay
green an these'first cocks, and then to enlarge
them by putting two together. If at this ear¬
ly stage they undergo a degree of incipient
fermentation, it is no matter. It is in the
later stages of the process that heating or
fermentation becomes hurtful.
"In the making of hay, the great end to b«
aimed at is, to prepare it as quickly as possi¬
ble, and with as little, exposure to the weather^
and as little waste of the nutural juices, as Cir»

Legal relation of Man and Wife. The ef¬
fects produced by marriage on the legal right®
of the parties are important to be known ia
every faft.5'v.
In law, hesband and wife are considered
as one person ; and on this principle, all the*
civil duties, rights and disabilities rest.
The wife cannot sue in her own name.
If she suffers injury, or wrong, in Iter per¬
son or property, she can with her husband4®
aid and concurrence prosecute for rcdres* ;
but the husband must always be the plaintiff.
In criminal cases, however, their relations as-
sume a new form *, the wife may in criminiti
cases, be arrested and punished.
The wile can make no contract with her
husband, nor the husband with the wife
this disability is involved in the first principle
which makes them legally one. But they
may contract through the ageircy of trustee*,
the wife being under protection of the h*s-
band.
All contracts made between them before
marriage ; are dissolved upon that event.
The husband cannot convey lands or real
estate to his wife directly, but he may »et*<e
them upon her through a trusteeship. Tl»o
wife may release her dower for his grarrtee*
As it respects the right of bequest, the
band can always devise real estate to few
wife.
Upon marriage, the husband becomes
sessed of all right and title to her proptw if 1

time he becomes liable lor all debts, and
must fulfil all her contracts made prior to that
union.
If the wife die before the husband, and
there be no issue, her heirs succeed to her
real estate.
But in case of issue, the husband remains
in possession of her lands during his life time
only—and at the demise they go to the heirs
of his wife.
All debts due to the wife become after
marriage, the property of the husband, who
becomes invested with the power to sue out
bond, note or any other obligation ; to his
own and exclusive use. The powers of dis¬
charge and assignment, and change of secu¬
rities, are involved in the leading principle.
If he dies before the recovery of the mon¬
ey, or the change of sureties, the wife be¬
comes entitled to the debts in her own right.
All personal property of the wife, such as
money, goods moveable, and stocks, becoma
absolutely ihe property of the husband upon
marriage, and on his death to his'heirs.
Property may be secured to the wife, by
deeds or,marriage settlement, in order to se¬
cure to the wife a comfortable competence
against the vicissitudes of life, or >he extrav¬
agances, vices, or crimes of the husband.
Property may be settled on the wife, after
marriage, by the husband, provided he be
solvent at the time, and not made with a
view to.defraud creditors.

From the Silk Joiirnnl.
The §12Si ^tsestaoai.
What is alt this about silk, says one—Skinner,
what do you know about silk, says another—it i»
all a wild speculation, savs a third—a mere hum¬
bug, savs a fourth ! and so on to the end of the al¬
phabet. Now, in all frankness we will answer tha
8 question, as we understand it, and if one can't trurt
the light of his own understanding? what light cam
ho trust?
It seems then that a few, with more than commas
forecast, porcer'tng that the morns muliicauhs tr«»,
would.supply the only desideratum, which had heel
wanting to make the culture of silk a profitable
branch of industry in the United States, set them¬
selves quietly to work,.to meet t-jie demand wmekt
it was obvious must ensue for thi* t xtraorritnary
Hee, vhtn its. reauukahle pipptnics would seam.

If you will nol hear reason, she will surely rap
your knuckles.
In affairs of the world, men are saved not by faith
)iUt by the want of it.
The greatest wealth is contentment with a little.
A foolish friend does more harm than a wise enemy
A little stone often makes a great bruise.
To livuquieily, we should be blind, deaf &. dumb.
to be made known ; and these gentlemen, more
far-sighted than their neighbours, when the treet
were ready for market, did realize almost incredi¬
ble profits—larger than have ever been reaped fro<«
any investment except in a lottery ticket drawing
a grand ptize. A few were persuaded to plant an
acre or two, at the cost, of as many hundred dollars,
and in six months thereafter, even before the grow¬
ing crop of corn or tobacco was in market, these
timid adventurers were seen to pocket three or four
thousand dollars to the acre ! This looked to tha
uninitiated, so much like alchvmy or witchcraft,
they were ' struck up,' as Jack Downing would say,
and very naturally vented their astonishment in ex¬
clamations such as are repeated in the beginning of
these remarks: speculation! sheep mania ! hum¬
bug! tulip mania! followed by the sage prediction
of burnt fingers, explosion skv high, to all who may
wnture to plant another year!
There are two cases in which it is not only con¬
venient but agreeable to jump at once from premi¬
ses to conclusion—the one when wc have not at
hand the means of comparison, argument and reg¬
ular deduction—the pther when laziness or self-coo
ceit forbids the trouble of inquiry-
Merino sheep, under a most extraordinary com¬
bination of circumstances, once sold for several
hundred dollars, and, afler peace, fell to almost no¬
thing, and therefore, we most sagely conclude that
silk culture is but a sheep mania, and that allmu^t
suffer who have any thing to do with it—so it was (
thought by thousands, that the attempt to mannfae-
tuie cotton in America, against the East India
manufacturer, who could hire his labour for a few
cents a day, would prove a ruinous humbug to all
who should undertake it. The same was predic¬
ted as to the extraction of sugar from the beetroot

ill France. But if some individuals lost by their
purchase of merino sheep, at high prices, the na¬
tion has been a great gainer by their i nt rod net i oa
to the country—for it has enabled us to make at
home the fine high priced cloths, for which we
were before wholly dependent on foreign supply;
and so those, if any there he, who will go on giv¬
ing high prices for trees after the whole country
ha3 been supplied beyond the demand that must
grow out of the production of more than twenty
millions of dollars worth of eilk, annually, wanted
for home consumption ; it takes no ghost to see
that loss must overtake the individuals who shall
thus neglect or fail in accurately measuring the
supply 1>V the demand-—nevertheless, the natim
will have greatly gained; for the cheapness of foed
for the srlk bearing worm, and the little labour re¬
quired in gathering and 'administering 'trial food,
(and these are two great items, in the calculation)
will, in the meantime, have insured such a highly
remunerating profit to" the si I k grower and -man*-
lacttirer, as to place the business of silk raising, be¬
yond all danger of abandonment. Most of those
who commenced growers ol trees/for sale on sp*«-
illation, will, when, 'and even before six and twesr
ty States have • been suppT'd wirn trees in abun¬
dance, turn from growers oi trees to the growers »f
silk, as ensdy, and to all appearance more naturally
than the silk worm id transformed into a bu.tt.erfl/—
besides,'the commodity will become so cheap, that
the'consurnpliou will increase as it hss done witk

profit, lik<j cotton, to all concerned, even more t»

for converting that food into silk, will yield a grea.
ter per centage, in a shorter time, and give employ¬
ment and support to a larg-.r proportion of other,
wise helpless people, and therefore more benevo¬
lo ir in its effects, than any other money making
enterprise in which land enters as an element of
the business. Ail twit at present obstructs the
general admission of this truth, is that it is a new
thing. The knowledge of the facts, processes, and
facilities, some of them, and the most important of
recent origin, connected with the subject, areas
yet known comparatively speaking, to very few.
This industry is in our country, and as connected
with these facilities, in its infancy. The light is
only beginning to dawn, and as a well-judging
friend in a letter before us, justly remarks, " those
who now push the business, will make great for¬
tunes in a short time," while those who have not
investigated the matter, and on wbomo this rising
light has not yet beamed, when told of its practica¬
bility and great profits, will continue to lilt up
their hands in astonishment, asking what wonder
is this? Is this another sheep, tulip mania ? But
what will be the state of the case when by means
of the Journal of the American Silk Society, and o-
thers, that knowledge which is now confined to h
few, but which is spreading as rapidly as do any dis-
coveiies that give new directions to labor, and work
revolutions in property ; what, we ask, will be tb«
state o! the case when the knowledge of silk making
and its profits, comes to be widely diffused ? Then
will be heard, the same regrets as now about the
trees—-every one who lags behind will say, "iceil
I wish I had gone into it last year /"
Have we not experienced greater difficulties a-t
the commencement of the introduction to our coun¬
try of many other arts and manufactures, far mors
complicated, and demanding ten times the capital
this does? Loof at our great iron founderres and
glass manufactories. How much more forbidding
| and impracticable must have appeared, at first view,
the project lor the introduction of ihe vast estab-
; lishruonts—requiring immense outlay, aod the Mb

ted treasure of experience and science ! These en-
terprises, too, were doubtless considered by the pru¬
dent and -wary, as impracticable humbugs ! But
without going further to prove that the making of
silk is not a m^re speculation—a non-entity—we
can show that it is already a thing in esse. The
work is begun. The tree is not only planted, but
we are already gathering, and enjoying its rich
fruits.
It must be admitted that silk making has hereto¬
fore been confined almost exclusively to a small
portion of New England. In Mansfield and the
contiguous towns, silk has been one of the staples
—making a ' fair business'Gfor fifty or sixty years,
under all vicissitudes in the affairs and condition
o! our country, and with the old trees, which re¬
quires six years before it is ready to be used. If
then, under all these disadvantages, the New Eng¬
land cultivator could made a living, what may be
done with the new tree ? For experience as we are
informed beyond question has shown, that then/a-
hour of gathering any given weight of leaved from
this old Italian or white mulberry tree, is six fold
greater than is required to gather the same weight
of leaves from the morus multicaulis—the Italian
moreover requiring six years growth before it i#
ready for defoliation, whereas the morus multicau¬
lis gives a merchantable article in less time from
the planting than does the Indian corn.
Mr. Oijfifistead, of East Hartford, Connecticut,
exhibited specimens at the Convention in Balti¬
more, of sewing silk, raised on his land by Mr.
Danfprth tin last season, from trees planted from
the* loth to the 20th of May. Some specimens
manufactured by himself were from trees planted
from the 9th to the 15th of May, the cocoons hav¬
ing been formed and ready lor manulacturmby ibe

l!>th of July following, being but a little more than
two months from the time of planting, and shewing
the practicability of getting a crop of silk, nearly as
soon as a crop of cucumbers ! tThe very great ad-
Tniaoe of this mulberry, says Mr. Dnnfortb, of
Connecticut, over standard trees, (hieaniug the I-
(alian oi> whit® mulberry tree, till then in use) was
manifest ;• while such trees are difficult of process,
and from the small size of their leaves requiring
much labour to gather any quantity, it was easy for
a child to take from the morus multicaulis from
' fifteen to twenty pounds an hour.' Shall we then
ingenuously searching after truth, shut our eyes to
the influence of new facts, scarcely loss important
to the matter in hand than was the invention of
Whitney's cotton gin, or the application of steam to
navigation 1 Mr. Danforth, made under specified
and undeniable disadvantages, at the rate of seven¬
ty-two pounds of silk to the acre, and is confident
that under circumstances within the control of th»
cultivator, it would have been easy to make a hun¬
dred and twenty-five pounds to the acre ; which,
even at six dollars the pourtd, v.ould be seven hun¬
dred and fifty dollars. Now suppose we take half
of that, and what other use of land will yield half
as much 1 Mr. Danforth says further, that not a
person employed in the culture of the trees or the
care of the worms had ever before seen a tree or
silkworm7?
In the mean time it is well ascertained by corres
pondence with the manufacturers and silk dealert
in England and France, that they stand ready te
take from fifty to sixty millions of dollars Worth of
our raw silk annually—and it is on all bar.dsagreed
that our raw silk is worth twenty-five per cent
more than tiieforeigh article—may we not then ask
is not the field lor enterprise unbounded ? Under
these circumstances may we not repeat the empha¬
tic observation of Mr. Olmstead in the Convention
that the specimens of silk there exhibited were at
good a guarantee for the sale of the trees, until th«
whole country is supplied with the article, as th«
specie in their vaults for the sale of our bank notraf
and the investment much more safe even than bauk

Ii'AlN'Y DAYS.
How much nine is thrown away by some
farmers when the weather villi not permit
them lo work out doors. And how well thin
time might be improved ! There are many
days and itours of wet weather in a .year in
which it is impossible, to do work on a larnv;
and when these are lost, as they are by too
many farmers of my acquaintance, they h-
mount to u considerable sum. •' Time is mo¬
ney," as my grand father used lo say—and
further, "take care ol the pence and the
pounds will taive care of themselves."
Now if this is good advice in money mat¬
ters, it will surely apply to economy m time,
to those hours and hull days when the rain
drives under cover.
Well, how are these hours to be best im¬
proved ? I will tell.my brother farmers: get
yourselves a set of carpenter's tools, and make
a work-bench, and if you can plane a board
and drive, a nail you will find enough to occu¬
py all your spare time.
The tools will.cost but five or six dollars—
such as are most .necessary, and then you
will be able to keep your out buildings, fence,
land many of your farming implements, i«

good repair. If your barn or stable door
break down, mend it immediately the first rai¬

replace it. If you want any plain, useful
kitchen furniture, such as a pine table, ben¬
ches, (fee., take those occasions. But it is un¬
necessary to multiply the things that might
be made or repaired in such times. Every
farmer that looks around him (if he is not i<i
the habit of so doing) will find the wood-work
on his place lamentably out of repair.
Besides, every farmer should acoustom him¬
self to the use of tools. When he wants a
small job done, it wastes as much time often
as il is worth, to go several miles after a car¬
penter. 1 know some farmers who have not
a hatchet, a drawing-knife, auger, plane of
work-bench about their place.
The consequence is, their jobs and repaiw
generally go undone, and they have nothing
to do in rainy weather. Is this economy f

weighing each a pound, (being about half the
size of the accompanying) and I raised from
them 143 lbs. which is rather more than two
and a third bushels : and I have reason to be¬
lieve my whole crop (about 300 bushels,) will
fully equal this increase. They are certain¬
ly a most valuable introduction, and I doubt
not, will be universally cultivated—giving au
increase of more than seventy fold. I procu¬
red my seed last spring of John A. Tkompson%
of Catskil), who introduced the Rohan pota¬
to from Europe. He informs me that just in
proportion as they have become known the
demand for them has increased,'"—

WEEVIL.
The great destruction of wheat produced
by this annoying insect, it is said, may be pre¬
vented bv very simple means. In stacking
wheat, if four or five quarts of salt besprink¬
led on every hundred sheaves it will be secu¬
red from destruction from the weevil, and
will besides make the straw more valuable as
fodder. Or if, after the wheat is thrashed, a
font of salt is mixed in every barrel, or the
grain be put in old salt barrels, the weevil
will not attack it.
Golden Rule in Agriculture.—A practical
husbandman, of the highest authority; assures us
ibat the golden rule of agriculinre—t<> n«e such
manures as will make heavy land lighter, light land
heavier, cold land liotier, and hot land colder—
must never be lost sight of. He who knows and
follows .this rule, and .he only, is -a fanner.

RECIPES.
Tin; way to get Rica*—Attend to your own business,
and Jet your neighbor attend to his ; "drive your business,
arid *be cautious that your business does not drive you;
wherryour work is promised have it accomplished at the
appointed time, and accomplished in such a manner that
your customer may call on you again.
Botts in Horses.—A traveller informs us that the stage
drivers on the routes leading from Albany to the western
parts of the State of New York, in giving water to their
horses on the road mix a little wood ashes with their
drink, which they say, effectually preserves thern against
bolls. .
Ring Worm.—An esteemed friend says, common lamp
oil applied to the part affected will cure the ring worm.
Nausea.—A tea spoonful ot common ashes stirred in
two larger spoonsful of boiling water, a lea spoonful ol it
repeated at intervals, checks excessive vomiting and nau¬
sea. Some prefer to stir it in cider. It is often-given in
eases of cholera morbus.
To Cure Butter.— Butter cured with one half ounce
of common salt, one-fourth ounce of saltpetre, and one-
fourth ounce of moist sugar, pounded tsgether, and used
in the proportion of one ounce to the pound of butter, will
on trial, be found to keep any length of time, and have a
Much finer flavonr than when salted in the usual manner.
Method, of Extinguishing Fire in a Chimney.
Place a bucket of water on a stool near the fire, and,
with the-hand, keep throwing the water gradually on the
fire, but so as not to injure it ; the steam produced there¬
by will in a few minutes completely destroy tne fire, by
passing, with the current of air, up the*chimney.
To stop Vomiting.—Apply a large onion slit across the
grain to the pit of the stomach. I have repeatedly tried
il, und never knew it to fail.
To Cure the Cramp.—Chafe the part with Hungary
water ; or hold a roll of brimstone in your hand. 1 have
frequently done tiiis with success.
Hooping Co ugh .—Yew milk and ley (from hickory ash¬
es,) of equal quantities, is said to be an infallible remedy
for this distressing complaint. To a child 7 or 8 years old
give a table spoonful every hour through the day—and in
this proportion accordi^g4.o $j;.> .ige.uf the clnid.
ANECDOTES.
Admirable Hit.-—" My dear madam," said a doctor la
his patient, •'I am truly gratified to see you yet in life. At
my last visit yesterday, you know, I told you,"you had but
six hours to live."' " Y§s, i
take the dose you left."
doctor; you did ; but 1 didn't
If Satan should loose his tail, where should he go to get
motile*? Answer : to a gm place, because there they ra¬
ta i ted spirits.
Ab tivo celebrated punsters were walking in the street,
one of th'em accidentally struck his foot against a small
pail ; fiis companion* dryly observed ; 'why, Sam. you
have kicked the bucket:'' ' Oh, no,' replied the other, • I
have only turned a little pail.'"
A Strong Position.—Gentlemen of the Jury : There are
four points to this case. In the first place, we contend
that we never had the plaintiff's horse ; second, that we
paid'him for the use of the horse; third, he agreed to let
us use the horse, for his keeping, without any charge; and
fourth, that his horse is a Jackass.
A preacher who had once been a printer, thus conclu¬
ded a sermon. Youth may be compared to a comma,
manhood to a semicolon ; old age to a colon: to which
death put a period.
A gentleman, whose-son had lately died, was visited
by a neighbor, who began to condole with him on his loss.
" My"loss?" exclaimed the father ; "no such thing. It's
his own loss—he was of age."
Much yet remains unsung,' as* will be seen by the fol¬
lowing splendid verse :
" All hail, thou glorious moon,
Bright, as a new pan ;
Thou brightest, roundest, noblCst soufce
Ol bread and cheese to inan."
The recondite John S. Cuts, who, perhaps, is one of ths
greatest naturals of the age, thus accounts for the phe
nomenon of fog :—" It is occasioned by the Atmosphere
coining in contact with the Hemisphere, which causes tlw
earth to sweat 1"
Liberal Education.—A fellow who wrote a wretched
hand, and made almost as bad a fist at spelling and gram,
mer, gave as an excuse for the deficiencies of his educa¬
tion, that •' he hever went to school but one afternooa
and then the master wasn't there !"
