The following poem lately appeared in an
Ohio paper. It is “aid to have been offered
for some prize held out by a Medical As
sociation. U'c have yet to learn whether
it was successful.
I love my row, I love my hog,
1 love mV little puppv-dog.
V hich fondles on my knee;
J love my white-tail’d posset -cat.
Which jumps and (risks and all of that
As blythe as blythe can be.
1 love for breakfast coffee hot,
Boiled in a tin or iron pot,
And cleared with white of eggs ;
That when the beverage 1 do sup
I may not see in any cup
A particle of dregs.
I love for dinner good fat beef,
(Os all our Injuries the chief)
And roasted to a brown;
With cabbage, turnips, and SO forth,
To give it still a greater worth,
And bcerto wash it down.
I iovefor supper llvson Tea,
( I is better than Souchong fur me)
With cither milk or cream—
Ami sugar, which you know is sweet,
And then dried beef a kind of meat
1 hold in much esteem.
But more than these, I love to nee
The 'Victors ’mong themselves agree
In friendship, love and peace ;
And having now a code of laws,
l hope there ne’er will be a cause
Fur harmony to cease.
W bile these superior laws exist,
No one, again, can clinch his fist
To knock another down ;
Nor en'n a grin nor thnkc u cane
Under the penalty and pain
Os losing his renown.

Novel address.
A preacher in (lie neighborhood of
Blackfrurs, London, not undeservedly
popular, lud just finished an exhorta
tion strongly recommending the liber- j
al support of a certain very meritorious
institution. The congregation was
numerous and the chapel crowded to ex
cess. The discourse being finished, the
pi itc w.rs about to be (landed round
to the respective pews, when the preach
er nude this address to his congrega
tion: “from the sympathy l have wit
nessed in your countenances, and the
strict attention you have honored me
with, there is only one thing I ant afraid
of; that some of you may feel inclined
to "iv too nutcli; now it is niv duly
to inform you, that justice, though not
pleasant, should always be a prior vir
tue to generosity; therefore, as you will
all immediately be waited upon in your
respective pews, 1 wish to have it tho- j
roughly understood, that no person will
think of putting any thing into the
plate, ir’tu cannot pay their d hts." I
need not add that this advice produ- 1
ced a most overflowing collection.
CURE FOR LUX VTICS.
Burton, in his Melancholy, quoting
from Pvtßgius, the Florentine,’tells us of
a physician Milan, who kept a house
for the reception of lunatics, and, by
tray el cure, used to make his patients
fctas.d for a length of time in a pit of
water, Some up to the knees, some to
the girdle, and others as high as the
chin, pro moda iitsaui.v, according as
they were more or less affected. An
inmate o! this establishment, who hap
pened, •• by chance,” to he pretty well
recovered, was standing at the door of
the house, and, seringa gallant cava
lier ride past with a hawk on his fist,
and his s|ianiels after hint, he must
needs ask, « what all these prepara
tions meant?” The cnvali»r answer
ed, “to kill game.” “ What may the
game be worth which you kil\ in t|, e
course of a year r” rejoined the patie g.
" About five or ten crowns.” And what
*nav yout horse, dogs, and hawk*, stand V
you in ? “ four hundred c. owns or .
more.'* On the hearing this, the pa- '
tiettt, with great earnestness of man- ■
net, bath l the cavalier m-tantlv bo-
f one, as he valued his life and" wel
are ; “tor, said he, “if our mu'tcr
comes and finds you here, he will put
y. u into his pit, up to the very chin.”
A person of the name of Wood,
happened to rail his son a timber-head- 1
td jellow “ Vou say true,” replied the
Son, “ for l am a chip of tlic old block."
A maniac in the Pennsylvania hos
pital lately made the following obser
vation : “ We that are confined here
are only called mad, because our mad
ness does not happen to .igiee with that
of the test of the world. Every body
thinks his neighbour mad, if his pursuit
happen to be opj oaite to iiis own. Ill*
neighbours think the same of him. Hut
then these, two kinds of madness do
not intvtleje with each other.—Now
ami then there conn s an accentric man
who thinks them all mad ; him they
catch and lock up. That is my case.”
Planter's llepoaitory.
Tbk task of working' improvement on the
earth, is much more delightful to an un
debauched mind, than all the vain glory
which can be acquired from ravaging it
by the moat uninterrupted career of con
quests. Washington.

Whitewashing Fruit Trees.
This practice, which contributes so
essentially to the rapid growth and
health of fruit trees, is too little known
among our farmers. If, on setting out
a young orchard of 200 apple trees, one
half of them are whitewashed every
spring, in the month of April, those
that are thus treated will be iri a fine
bearing condition two or three years
sooner than the rest of the orchard ;
and will, in the course of four years, be
at least twice as large and much more
thrifty; the bark or epidermis, will re
tain the fine smooth appearance of a
young nursery tree; ami furnish no re
treats for caterpillars or other destruc
tive insects. I have witnessed the suc
cess of this experiment on several orch
ards for the last 14 years ; and I have
no hesitation in saying, that it not only
contributes greatly to the growth of the
tree, but the quantity and perfection
ot the Iruil is much improved.
The coat of lime or whitewash put
on the trunk of the tree, should be a
bout the same with that of the com
mon sort of whitewash ; no salt should
be used.
Iho astonishing effect of treating
trees in this way, will not be surprising
to those who are acquainted with the
rationale of its operation. Carbon is
the principal constituent of wood and
is essential to the grow th of the tree.
Th> carbonic acid of the atmosphere
combines wtdi the quick lime of the
whitewash, and forms the carbonate of
lime, and is brought in contact with the
h.uk of the tree, by which it is decom- ;
posed ; the carbon furnishes fowl for I
the tree, whilst the oxigen of the car- t
boire acid is set at liberty in the gase- j
ous form.
As soon as the carbonate of lime is, !
bv this process, decomposed, a fresh
•lose of carbonic acid combines witli j
the lime, and the carbonate of lime is <
regenerated; and this acts as a con
stant conducting medium for the sup- j
ply ol carbon to the tree.
Agricultural Improvement.
Joseph Brown, Esq. of New Lon
don, has a patent for an Improved
If innowing Machine for clearing '•
(train •J’c. which is spoken of very
highly. It requires less power to put it
in motion, does the work more perfect
ly and rapidly than many others, and
is less liable to ge* out of order. These
machines are made and vended bv the
patentee, who we hope w ill meet the en
couragement his invention merits.
.V. 11. Fat.
Manure jrom Swine, hour to increase
the quailtitij.
The dung ol Swine is very rich and
fat manure, and so cold as to ferment
very slowly. It is so rich and oily aa
to be double in value to neat’s dung.
It will render the most dry and hungry
soil-, exceedingly fruitful in a wet iilt
season, as I have found hv exjienenee.
It resists the ill effec ts ol drouth, and
does most service in a hot country.
By its steady and gratlual supply of a
rich nourishment, it is peculiarly adapt
ed for the growing of hops, pumpkins,
running beans, and every plant which
has long vines. Nothing can equal it
for the growing of potatoes ; it lias pro
duced me more than a peck in a hill,
on the poorest hungry sands ; or rather,
I might say, s raw only a little impre 1
Dated with the dung of hogs has done j
it.— l iiis is so strong a manure, that it j
answers well when mixed with a lar»e 1
proportion of earth, weeds, straw or !
MthtV bibulous substances. Ids almost
increthble luiw great a quantity of good
maituu may be obtained, by supplying
