From the- American Farmer.
AMERICAN SILK.
An absence of several weeks has prevented
my giving the result of my observations
this year on the cultivation of silk, till the
present time. Although I had a much grea>
ter number of worms this year than last, and
lost no opportunity of making observations, I
was able to make but few discoveries, and
•noao of but trifling practical conseguenco, in
addition to my observations published in the
farmer last year. I pursued the plan then
laid down, and found all deviations from it use
less, if not detrimental. This year’s obser
vations have confirmed mein the opinion, that,
as to all tlio works to which nature lends so
immediate and so important a bund, simplicity
i*I the .nipst egnspiettous feature in the best
plan for the cultivation of silk; and those who
endeavour to make it appear otkorwiso, do
a real injury to thoir country, by bosotting it
with so many dfiicuhies, intricacies and mys
teries, that people generally and particularly
the farmers, (W whom the cultivation of the
cocoons, in my opinion, appropriately belongs,)
fly from it as they would from the labour of
decypliering a manuscript of Egyptian hiero
glyphics. Every item of thq work is simple;
tho simplest child of five years may bo in
structed in five bouts to perform it, up to the
gathering of tho cocoons, when the labour of
tho professed manufacturer ought to begin, by
purchasing the cocoons of the farmers, and
fabricating therefrom cloths and threads. The
truth of one fact, however, I have sufficiently
proved by experiment. Every farmer can
make a pound of sewing silk with the same
labour that’the making of a pound of flax
thread requires; nnd from one to ten pounds
can bo made by cx'ery farmer, without, scarce
ly, additonal labour or expenco in the manage
ment of his farm; because it will occupy tho
time of the females uud children when they
would not he otherwise employed.
From my worms of last year, I saved the
eggs of eight; fivo females and, three males—
tfhich, ns I estimated, amounted to about fif
teen hundred.—During the hot weather of the
summer and fall, I kept them in a cold,* dry
cellar; and in the winter, some weeks of which,
it will, be remembered, were severely cold, *
they weep kept in a bureau, in a chamber
where fire was seldom used. On the 15 It
April last, about which time there were a
few days of very warm weather, I examined
the eggs, mid found that they were nil hatched,
and the little insects, about the size of the
of which appears to bo declining—and I do
.hopeyet to see Maryland Silk as well known
m the markets of thp world as Mary! .ml to
bacco.

I immediately went to the mulberry trees, to
seo if there was n possibility of obtaining leaves,
and found that the littlo lenves had ulxo just
burst tlio bud; they were of tho size of the
smallest clovor leaf. This is another instance
of the exactness with which nature ud.ipts all
her works to her purpose,', Having obtained
the food for them, they were managed in the
usual way, till about tho first of May, when
a spell of severe cold weather destroyed all
but about six hundred, and thoso I only saved
by keeping a fire in’tlio room. Without any
other accidout, the remaining worms passed
tiirough the several stages, moulting, See. to
tho spinning of their silk; and, in duo time,
left thoir cocoons, and deposited their eggs,
which I have in a state of preservation for
another year’s use. The cold weather, which
destroyed so many of my worms, had tlio effect
of retarding the firngross of thosc*that survived,
fully nino days—the usual timo front leaving*
the cggs'to-tbo commcncmcnt of spinning, be>
tng thirty-six days, and that occupied by these
being from tho 15th April to tlio 31st May. It
is therefore advisable, in this climate, where
we hnvo frequent spells of cold weather in
April and the Toro part of May, to delay the
.bringing out of the worms from tho eggs, till
tho raiddlo of May—certainly till tho first.
As it respects more than ono crop' of worms
in a year, I am pretty well convinced, that
for tlm purposes of s'* manufacture, they will
no: bo profitable. But j; is all important that
several crops should be cultivated at tin: com
mencement, for tlio purpose of obtaining an
abundance ofseed for future operations. Thus,
u gen'Icman who wishes to go into tlio cultva-
tion of silk in 1829, ought next year to obtain
from 500 to a 1,000 oggs, of this year’s pro
duction, nnd immediately hatch them, and ob
tain thoir eggs,. which will amount to, say,
frotn a thousand worms, ho will have 150,000
eggs; and if he begins early in tlio year, Ito
may have another crop, which will produce
him, if ho allows them all to lay eggs, 22,500,-
000—more than sufficient for the largest es
tablishment, and to obtain which, in the ortlin-
#ry process of ono crop a year, it would require
three years: That is, 1827 would produce tho
1,000 oggs: 1828 tho 150,000, aud 1829 tho
22,500,000—making it necessary to put off the
commencement of his establishment ono year.
But, by attention and beginning early, us soon
as.tho mulberry leaves burst tho bud, ho may
begin with eight eggs next yoar, and, by mak
ing three crops," produce the 22,500,000 eggs
during the same summer, and be ready in the
spring of 1829 to commenco operations on as
largo a scale as his supply of the mulberry
leaf will warrant.
I have only .to ndd, what I have before said,
arid what is now, happily, notorious, that tlio
Whlto mulberry thrives well in all parts ol our
GREEK'S AND TURKS.

“All the nows lately received/rom tlio nor;h
are warlike. The lifting out of tho Russian
fleet ut Cronstadt, tlio great activity which pre
vails in the Arsenals in the interior of the em
pire, particularly Tula, and finally the grand
review by tho Emperor at Winsrau, are facts
which prove tho wrongs she has committed, in
abandoning for six yearn, to tho mercy of
tho Ottoman sabro, a nation possessing so ma
ny claims to hor protection.
“What, in conjunction with thoso facts, lenves
no longer any doubt as to tlio intentions of tho
Emperor Nicholas, is tho tenour of the letters
which for a week past have reached us from
Petersburg!!, and according to which, immedi
ately after the return of tho Emperor, a mani
festo relative to Turco Grecian affairs was ex
pected. Ono. of theso letters has the follow
ing passage:—“We, Russians, all hope that
the document which is to bo immediately pub
lished will bo drawn up in a spirit vory differ
ent from those which since 1822 have issued
from the office of Count Nesselrode.”

“Lord Cochrane, before ho left tho vicinity
of Athens to proceed to Poro3, thinking, proba
bly, that the fall of tlio Acropolis must bo tlio
inevitable result of tho cvcats of tho 6 th, wrote
oivtlie morning of tlio 7th to Captain Lo Blanc,
comlttanding tho Juno French frignto, a short
letter, in which ho requestod him to employ
his good offices with tho tho Spraskior in favor
of tlio garrison of tho citadel. Captain Lo
Blanc consented to this, and immediatoly wroto
to Rcdschid Pacha, asking an interview with
him on this subject. Lord Cochruno had set
sail for Pores without giving notice of wlmt
ho Imd done to General Church, who, as Com-
inander-iii-Chief of tlio land forces, was tho
proper person to make such n proposal. Cap-
taiu Lo Blanc, feeling tlio impropriety of this .
proceeding, went to the Phalctyts to onfer
with Geuoral Church. The latter, though ho
ho scomod hurt at tho proceedings of Lord
Cochrane, did not venture to refuso tho pro
posal. Tlio loiter of the French enptain was
therefore sent, on the 9th of May, to tho carrip
of iho Soraskior, whokhowed himself well in
clined to liston to it, and replied on the follow-. -
ing day, that “tho precepts of Islamitin, nnd
tlio principles of the Porte, ordered pardon to
bo granted to tho rebellious Ruyas, when tluiy
submitted; that tho too lnng resistance of tho
Acropolis, without hopq of deliverence, tvas ..
an obstinacy without object; but that, in con- -i
sidoratiou of the friendly relations existing be- J
fwceti Franco and tlio Sublime Porto, ho con-
sonted to treat the boseigod with all possible inv
dulgonCo."
“In consequence of this favorable answer,
M. Lo Blanc, accompanied by M. do Rovor-
seaux, another officer of tho French Navy, who
had arrived on the 10:h at Salamis, repaired
on tho 11th to the camp of tho Sernskier,
when tho following offers of capitulation wore
signed ou the samo day:— *
"Terms of Capitulation nff red to the On triton tf the
