It is then removed (on tho poles) to the curing house or barn, and there hung up, leaving room ti> walk below the tho lowar tier. It here remains until 'the stem is perfectly dry, after which on tho first rainy day, tho atmosphere having sufficiently softou- ed tho leaves, so they cau be handled without broakiug, they are taken down from the sticks, or polos, aud thrown into a bulk, where they lie until the plainer is ready for market. The leaves are then stripped from the stalk picked atid tossed according to quality, that is the wrapper leaves apart, by themselves; they are .then tied by the* butt end of tbo stalks into the smaller bundles, (called hands) of 25 leaves each, four of which bundles are again tied into larger ones, (called carrots) and.ihe carrots very slightly pressed uud packed iu boxes of-a* bout 200lbs. each. The seed should be sown in February or March in two beds, one in low dry ground and the other in the woods, in order to have two nurseries, or double chance of success, that in tho woods is likely to provo host: which should be prepared by burniug dry brush about two feet deep and scraping tho ashes off. The ground -then dug shallow and well raked so as the earth shall bq completely pulverize'!.— With each tablo spoonful of tho seed mix a gallon of tho ashes, that it may bo sown more even over the beds, which will yield plants sufficient for two acres of lund: when at tho size of an inch, the plants arc suitable for Dans* planting. Havana Tobacco Seed,—From the best to bacco grown in tho island of Cuba called Bucl« toAbazo, for sale at the manufactory of Jacob Mayland & Company, north west corner of Race and Third streets, Philadelphia. The subscriber having been commissioned by Messrs. Jacob Maylaud &. Co. to purchase for them in tho Islnnd of Cuba direct from the planters, a large quantity of that high priced and very superior tobacqo for sogars, has witli great difficulty been enabled to procuro about 30 pouuds of the seed, which he now offers for sale as above in bottlos containing from one to four ounces to accommodate purchasers. It gen erally succeeds best in rich, sandy or gravelly sail, producing very superior crops, which al» ways command the highest price. As he ex* pects to visit Havana once a year, in time to make purchases of tho above kinds of tobacco, he will if sufficient encouragement be nffordod him by tho farmers of this country, regularly introduce a supply of fresh seeds. Jacob Mayland & Co. who eAterod them at the custom house, will at all times guaranteo their being genuine. They arc fresh from the crop of this year. » L. GARMER. MISCELLANEOUS. A SKETCH. A great and powerful king liad a sister, dis* tinguished for extreme personal beauty, for great powers and cultivation of mind, and for a most amiable aud benevolent disposition. She was remarkable, also, for those accomplish* merits which throw such additional charms o* ver female beauty and intellect. In music, es pecially, sho took excessive pleasure, aud pos sessed extreme skill. She ivus the favorite of her brother, and was regarded with all tho con* sideralion which favor gives in an ubsoluto court. Youth, beauty, talent, fooling, power —all seemed joined to showor roses on tier path—to givo to it all happiness. But this was not to last. A young nobleman appeared at tbo court wiio soon a tracted- universal atton* tion. Peculiarly fitted to shine in such sceucs, it not was not long beforo his success (to use the word in its French signification) became great and undoubted.—Among dtbers, tho princess admired the young courtier, and soon sho lev* ed him. Their mutual affectiou was what might be expected between two young persons of fiery passions and habits of little self-con* trol. It did not, therefore, remain long un* perceived. The young man was advised- to withdraw himself—but ail such cautious were vaiu to youthful and favored passions—lie re mained . At lust lie was seized and imprisoned, and nfter various escapes Was finally thrown in to a dungeon, where he was totally.cut off from communication with the world, to which ho was as if he bad never been. During bis first imprisonment, the princess had contrived to him her assurances of continued affection, end overy alleviation which wealth could fur nish to his lot—but aflor lio was removed to * tho lost place of his confinement, it was as if the tomb had closed over him forever. Let us shift the scene, and we see a wourm tottering in prematuro okl age, her limbs haver nearly lost their power; sho can scarcely crawl the length of hor room, and sho cannot lift one hand without tho help of the otlior to raise ft. Her oyos are distended, forcod from their ^ sockets, and-nearly blind. Her voice is gone,’ and with ft hor fondness for the-art to which it gavo so much effect aud beauty.^ Her mini! is equally altered. Her mildness is chang ed into tho bitterest sarcasm. From one of tbo most benevolent of human beings, she hes come to take delight only in tho indulgence of a severity of temper amounting almost to ran cor. She is seated in hor chamber. The door opens and a man enters. Hens old ami de crepit. His hair is snow-white. H.s form is bout nearly doublo. * ». - 1— there came A worn-out man, with withered limbs and lame, His mind oppressed with woes and bent with age his frame." ' It is hor lover.
