Is it be cause they arWouducted by gentlemen of less ability or 6f less morul worth, or is it because the farmers of the Soufh are too poor to support the press ? ?lot one oi those objects can be urged in truth, and yet many useful papers devoted to Agriculture have” been discontinued in .the South for want of patronage. Such a state of thingß is any thing else but creditable to our coun try, and we trust the—J***’* n shortly be expunged. “ Tomler communication we ic rfas our opinion that the farmer should be a reading man, and the more minutely we examine this point the more thoroughly are we convinced of its correctness. The farmer should not only read Agricultural, but political papers; for surely no one is more interested in the perpetuity of our free institutions than he is. We do not think, however, that he should permit his mind to become so absorbed in politics as to cause him to abandon, or even neglect, his daily avocations. While it is true that a very large number of farmers support the press with liberal hands and cheerful hearts, it is equally true that many of them never con tribute a cent to this desirable object. We are personally acquainted with farmers worth from 25 to 30 thousand dollars, clear of debt, whenever read a newspaper of any kind, unless it is a borrowed one. Ask such persons why they do not subscribe to a newspaper, or purchase good books, and they will teliyou that they have no time to read. They might with as much proprie ty say that they had no time to eat or sleep, for there is no one who docs not have hours of leisure that might be profitably employ in the acquisition of useful knowledge.— One is ready, however, to excuse himsSf on the ground of not having received a lib eral education in his youth ; but this we consider a poor apology for remaining in ignorance, when it is completely in the i power of almost every cue to improve their j minds to some extent; and this becomes the j imperative duty of all, from the fact that, botli moral and intellectual culture are ; conducive to earthly prosperity and happi- j ness. Man, as a reflecting and rational be ing, ought to exercise his mind as well as i his feet and hands. We have long been of opinion that Agriculture should be taught in our Schools, theoretically if not practi cally. When the King of Sparta was ask ed “what things bethought most proper for boys to learn ?” answered “those things which they expect to do when they are men.” Sparta had a wise King, and well \ had he studied the education of her youth, i The whole range of education he embraced in one sentence. The advice was full of wisdom and good common sense. IJut the young farmer, in America, has not taken this advice. While receiving his educa tion, he has learned nothing of his proses. sion ! No! Where-.is there a school that teaches Agriculture ? If any, they are like Angel’s visits, “few and far between.” What profession so difficult as that which works with breathing, changing nature ! How well should the farmer understand ev ery plant, and shrub, and grass, and grain, and flower, that blooms or ripens in his field? “Nature is struggling with all her energies to feed and bless the human race; and to aid her is the work of farmer. But he will be a poor help if he does not under stand her mode of operation.” We trust that the prejudice against book learning with some farmers will shortly be discard- i ed, and our whole rural population will rise ! rapidly to bettor method and a more com- j sortable state of life, while a proper study j oftheir oyn profession would greatly im prove their faculties, and make them more and more capable of all other knowledge. It is not because the farmer has to labor physically that he is less respected and less I influential in many instances than other ! classes, but it is because lie is too often less ! intelligent, and consequently not so useful. Then let the rudiments of Agriculture be taught in our Schools; let those who desire to elevate the mental condition of farmers generally, unite their efforts now; let it no , longer be said that the Schools of our coun try do not teach the elements of Agricul lure, which is thar noblest employment of man. From the New Orleans Bulletin. MANUFACTURE OF SILK IN OHIO. Mr. John W. Gill, of Mount Pleasant, Hamilton county, Ohio, manufactured dur ing the last year upwards of $9,000 worth of silk goods. His clear profit on the capi tal invested was ten per cent. He has 3 , large cocooneries, and commenced this sea son to feed upwards of two millions of worms, which lie calculates, will yield him 1 upwards of six hundred bushels of cocoous, 1 worth at present price $2,000, but much 1 more to him as be will manufacture the 1 whole crop into various fabrics. , He has now in operation six Piedmon tese reels with improvements ; one winding machine for raw or reeled silk, three twist ing machines preparatory for trimming; one double machine, two trimming ma chines for organzine. All the machinery excepting that for weaving is propelled’ by a steam engine. Yet the most delicate operations are per formed with the greatest exactitude. He employs at the factory 25 hands, half of whom are females, and several of these are from 10 to 14 years of age.

Tho amount of maple sugar produced in 1840, was over 2,559 tons, being over 17| pounds to each inhabitant, allowing a population of 291,948. At five cents n pound this is worth $255,903 20. The Montpelier Watchman states that this quan tity is very far below that produced the pre sent year, and thinks that it may be safely estimated that the sugar produced this sea son will at the low price of five cedts, be worth One Million of Dollars.
