•f OKiCUMj Tlit, Uj. p From the Farmer's Reporter. U HUCKE OF THE MC'I/BEK HV TREE. ‘C The only appropriate food foe the silk worm 3 the leaf of tlic mulberry tree. It should lie j, the first Inkiness therefore of the silk grower to 1 provide himself wi’h the source of a constant sup ply of mulberry leaves. 'I lie greater his sup- ; J ply oftlis article, the gr* ater will be his crop of. *ilk, as the eggs of the insect are procured to any amount with ease an i cheapness. Having " ‘ the eggs ofth« insect and sufficient quantity o: ' font at hand, ordinary care oti the part of the " proprietor will insure a good crop. It is now ' 1 abundantly proved, that there is no great ob- *’ stucic in the soil or climate of these United , States to raising silk to a vast amount. As ther ‘ is a difieri nee in the quality of the mulberry leaves for raising silk, it should he the object of 1 the cultivator to propagate the best kind- The j;* while mulberry has been found snjierior to t!ie ’ purple or native red, and the plan - 5 are easily \ <: produced from the seed. 1 [ • The seed of the Mullerry. , One ounce of good seed will be sufficient to. t produce 0,000 trees. The seed is easily obtain- t cd from the fruit in the following manner. When s the fruit begins to ripen, every morning the tree ( should b<- shaken and the fruit that fails gather-1 I ed with that which had fallen before; if enough) ! ;s not gathered in one morning, several success- j iv« gatherings may be collected; but the fruit ( should not be kept ov. r three or four days before j i the i*» ext racked, w hich may he done by put- j I ting the fruit into a tub ami mashing it till the >| t■■rriea are completely worked into a common jjl mass. L hen pour water into it and stir it brisk- * iv, and the pulp may be separated from the seed, j Then pour off llie water, with all the seed that floats, (for that is worthless,) and renew the < washing till the seed is clean, win. n it may lie i drained, spread out on cloths, and dried in the i shade. When jierfectly dry it should be put in- i to a light vessel, and kept in a dry place. It! 1 should never be* exjxjsed to the light, air, orj dampness, more than is absolutely necessary, i 1 lie seed may be obtained at a reasonable ratejli ul most of the seed stores, and I have bought it in i Mansfield, Connecticut, at the rate of one dollar jj i per pound. Sowing the Seed, choice of Soil, etc. A soil rich, warm and mixed with much mould, | is recommended as the most proper for a nursery of mulberry trees. New shoots should have grouiut easy to penetrate. The ground should be ploughed the preceding fall, and again i ploughed twoor three limes in the spring audji made light and friable ; two or three dressings ]j as manure well ploughed in should be levelledji* . with a hoe or rake, and the seed sown in drills ij 1 about the first of May, much in the same way'! our farmers sow carrots. The weeds must help carefully destroyed, and in dry times watering j will be very beneficial. 1 have sown the mul-jj 1 berries in July, and they have sprouted and come on rapidly; but the fros's of winter in oar'i climate (New England) have been too severe!j for them. 1 would recommend to sow the seed ill in the spring. From a quarter of anacicofj J ground last season, I had over ten thousand, plants, produced from seed sown in the spring ' in the way above mentioned, some of them up-1; i wards of a foot in height. Those that are in- y tended for transplanting may be taken up in the'} full and put out of the way of frost in a cellar, i the roots covered with loam. Those left stand-1 mg nmv be covered with light manure or old 1 O - O hay. The frost will be apt to kill the young ' and tender tops, but the shoots will start from 1 the bottom in the spring with great luxuriance. 1 The seed plant is undoubtedly best, loth for , food, for worms and duration: it is also the most'!' “• 1 I convenient mode of getting the trees, as seed)!: enough can be sent by mail to any part of the 1 union to produce an orchard sulficient to feed)) 1 several millions of worms. I cannot believe | That any other mode cun be pursued to much ad-j ' vantage In this country ; but us some may be) 1 fond oi trying experiments in other modes of cul.J ! turc, the following are laid down as sometimes !' used in Europe. 1 1 Manner of multiplying Mulberry Trees by Cut- j, tings. The soil chosen to receive the slips of the i mulberry tree should be prepared much in the | same way as has been described for the seed. jj< The cuttings of the mulberry are to bo planted jjl in the same manner as the cuttings of the vine :jj that is, by making furrows by a line at the dis tance of six feet from one to the other, and by crossing them by furrows at die same distance,! m order to form squares. A two year old ; branch of a mulberry tree, having wood of four! or five years : t one end, must bo selected, and| the extremity of the old wood must be interred' to the depth of about ten inches. The branches!! chosen from the white mulberry must be taken; ofi in the spring at the first rising of the sap. Two or three incisions must be made lathe 1 joints or knots ofthe old wood, because this ope-j ration will facilitate the shooting of the roots,' which always put forth from the joints of the old wood. The cuttings must then be covered w ith a well manured and friable earth, and the j end ofthe branch which rises from the soil must be cut off ai the third bud from the surface, j |f rains should not frequently occur after the plantation is finished, it would be necessary toi water the plants often. The multiplication of mulberry trees by means of cuttings is said to’, have the important advantage of two years in advance over the establishment of a nursery by means of seed in Europe. From the Working Man's Advocate. DOGS. As the season is approaching when the annu-j al crusade against dogs will commence, am! when wc may expect to hear from the editor of the Journal of Commerce A: other pious persons, recommendations to turn our children into dog J killers, in order to inculcate in their young ! minds the principles of humanity and benevo- I lenco, we have thought that the following ac- i count o r an individual of the camne race, from a British spor*iug journal, mightnotbe ill timed, ij It will be rcc fleeted that, although life may be' supposed to bo equally dear to every dog that exists, yet every dog is not a fishing dog, and j therefore the fives of the great majority of dogs are not worth considering when a sacrifice ofi them becomes necessary to convey to our chii dren pious moral ins:ruction. A dog of no particular breed, was given some ; time buck to the superintendent of a salmon fish, j in*: at Cruites, in the vicinity of Aberdeen. Mr. S. the worthy superintend ant, is a person net extremely attentive to the discharge of his trust, but is also endowed with much carious ob servation. Study, and his nightly vigils have not y«t reduced him to a skeleton, though his,; L . rncf for the loss of his favorite dog, has certain-; : y, from being a very portly man, brought him > icarer the chance of getting through the eye of 1 i needle. He soon saw something more than t roinmon in the dog, which I should long since, r nave told you was christened by the name of. • Tiger. With that grateful instinct which char- ’ iC'crisos his race, this sagacious creature began ' 0 consider, as it were, how to render himself 1 is fu! to the kind hand that fed and caressed him; / ■iiid for that purpose, in constantly attending ■■ t as master to the water side, saw that fish was i he object, and water the element, he was tos;u iv. Accordingly, although smooth.haired, and; ; without a particle ofthe spaniel, Newfoundland. ] r, water dog in him, he set about swimming and learning to practice ail manner of aquatic evolu-j ions, smelling about the nets, and at first tear- , luilv approaching the salmon as they were drawn up to the shore, then eager to mouth them. For j awhile led only by the sweep of the net, and j ( sight ofthe corks upbearing it, but by degrees, 1 ncerlv watching the practiced eyes of the fish ermen who see long down the stream the ap proach of fish by a particular swirl on the sur face of the river, immediately over the salmon, (imperceptible to any vision but their own.) Ti- ; ger soon became as expert as themselves; and ' 1 at lus warning would they always bestir them- i selves, and generally with success. Not. only g did the dog do this, but be went still farther — j he saw the fish for himself, and took them by;', himself, without the assistance of man, or mate-dp rial of any kind ! At first, as was to be expect- i ed, his success was small, but Ins instinct soonjj' made him expert, and he had been known to ; kill from twelve to fifteen salmon in a day. In th>- coldest mornings and the darkest nigh's, ho was, it mav be said, never oil guard, nor ever so happy as when on ir. In a middling river he 1 would place himself for hours together on a stone!: a little below tho rapids, and watching the fisiij coining up, allowing it to pass him when follow-j ing it to the rush, at the bottom of the dykes,! where it was shallower, po>„ ce at once upon his prev, and li.xing uis t<:■ ,h a little below his neck, keep fast hold and struggling with the salmon; sometimes above water, and sometimes below it, go down the stream for a considerable dis tance, and almost always returning victor. W ith a high river, when in a spent, u s we say here, al- j fc-r much rain, lie would perch himselfon the ve- . rv edge of the Cruive dyne, with the water boil ing and bubbling about him to his belly, watch ing the dart upwards oi’u fish, and immediately he saw one, spring at it at all hazards till he laid it on the bane, wagging his tail, and seemingly more delighted than the fishermen at the propor tion his individual exertions contributed to the general stock. On one occasion he grappled! with an enormous fish of 23 pounds, sustained a desperate battle with it, and had nearly master- j ed it, when a fisherman, seeing the struggle, ! went to Tiger’s assistance, laid hold of the sal- j mon by the taii, and before the clog had quitted j the grip, the fish, by a convulsive twist,laid, both man and dog on their back —but fish though it was, that salmon went the way of all flesh. On another occasion his master had left him n f 12 o’clock, on Sunday night, before the fish ing commenced on Monday morning, chained to j his couch. Tiger drew the couch down to the] hank ofthe river, and breaking the chain, kill ed several salmon ere Mr. S’s return. On one ! particular stormy night—so bad that the fisher- . men were driven to shelter in a public house hard by—Tiger disdained to quit his spot, and killed of himself, seven fish that very night, whilst they were solacing themselves. If his. master was at home, and said, “Tiger, there is a fish coming”—oil he went wagging his tail, and either returned sorrowful, or his whiskers garnished with fresh salmon scales in proof ofi Ins industry ! If the fish was small, he would i bring it ashore as “if he had a tobacco pipe inf his mouth,” asthe fishermen termed it. It. would ji be endless to recount the thousandth part ofthe}! numerous instances of the sagacity, industry,!) patience, and spirit of this invaluable dog—-his j j affection, his intelligence, I may say, and the ti unwearied desire lie manifested, as it were, to} show his sense of duty to those who supported and were kind to him! And what was his end?j Does he yet love, basking in his old age in the) sunshine of their favor and protection ? 1 almost j shudder with indignation when I write it—thisi animal, so favored by nature, and so distinguish ed by the dumb attributes of every gmd quality 1 a poor quadruped could possess was, last week j only, most inhumanly shot by some miscreant hand, which has not yet been discovered, ah ho’ a considerable reward has been olilied for the brute who could kill such a Dog ! From the Compiler. THE CHAMELEON. The American Encyclopaedia states, that; f :three or four species [of the animal,] lire well known,” and that “they are narives of Africa j; and the Molucca Islands.” Another part ofthe same article states, that it is “a native of parts of Asia and Africa.” It is a species of the lizard,! with long, round prehensile tail, capable of grasp- ] ing twigs or branches to sustain the animal, with along tongue, which it moves with great cele- j rity, and darts oufwith viscid mucus for the pnr- , pose of capturing flies and other insects, on ;j which it subsists—[something more substantial, indeed, than feeding on air, as is vulgarly sup posed] —with its eyes protuberant, always cov- ■ ered with a skin, and “capable oi' moving hide- : pendentlV of each other, taking different direc tions at the same moment.” But the most strik ino’ peculiarity of its organization is, the struc ture of its lungs and its skin. “The lungs of the chameleon are viscuiar, and so large tha*. when inflated to the utmost, the whole body becomes} almost transparent. With different degrees ofj inflation, the surface undergoes changes of color lowing to the variations produced in the distri-j button of the blood, and not as has been fabled by the animal assuming the colour of the body upon which it happens lobe placed. It is scarce-;. Iv possible to witness anything more curious or beautiful than the rapid transition from hue toj hue, exhibiting bv the chameleon when aroused 7 C •< I to motion,” This curious little animal, however, is not con fined to Africa, and the Moluccas, ns the Ency -1 olopcedia seems to suppose. It is now ascertained I tobe a native of America. The L incxnnati Chronicle speaks of eigtit living chameleons which had been brought to that city, from Froph-! let's Island in the Mississippi. They were found running about on the bushesand small trees, and were then five weeks in confinement. Their] } food is said to be mosquitoes and flies, which they ■will only eat alive.” They correspond in almost every particular to the description given of the animal in the Encyclopaedia. We then have chameleons in America ! And is this physical fact so very surprising ? We have chameleons enough—and they are not . confined to Prophot’s island. M e may find 1 i • them ia many vther plares, •ven id cur cities, and among various classes, V\ e have chame leons i i politics, changing their hue according to the degree of their inflation. e have cha meleons in fashion, assuming a new colour ■with every change of the mode. e have chame leons ia morals—and I fear that our fair ones will discover that there are chameleons in Love. It is a phenomenon not confined to one countrv or to one class—but displaying the moral quali ties of the tribe in the various relations ot hu man societv. The Moral Encyclopedist.
