As it has fit!i•: n to mv lot to offer u few impel'feo! remarks upon this all-important branch of industry, I shall commence with Onions, as tlie scud is the first thing that should bo sown in the garden in the fall season. Have your bed well manured - vith well roiled stable manure; then plough s ip the bed deep and close; otherwise, spade up, rake and level the bed. Then take •a small sprouting hoe, and open a smalt trench (or furrow) about one inch deep, and about eighteen inches apart, then drill your seed thin. When done, cover it with a gar den rake about half an inch deep. These seed should be sown as early as the month of September or October. The ensuing spring, when the plants are well up, take a sprouting hoe. and cut square across the drill, as though you were thinning cotton the first time. As they grow up, they should be thinned out by degrees, until you have thinned out to one stalk, (or onion.) When they get to be about one inch in di ameter, the dirt or earth should be careful ly scraped away from them, and be kept free from all weeds and grass. Should a ny of them incline to go to seed, the buds should be nipped out. 15v rids method von may ra : se as fine large onions from the seed, as you can from the plants, and of de cidedly a better quality. Those who pre fer raising onions from the plants, (or as they are commonly termed, seed onions,) should, after preparing their garden as be fore mentioned, [dam them six or seven in ches apart, and the rows should be from twenty to twenty-two inches wide. This should be done about the last of December or the first of January. They should be managed in every respect like those which grow front the seed, and as they begin to bud for seed, the bud should be taken out, except such as you wish for seed. After the Onions have matured, the top will gen erally fall down ; then they should be dug anrTler'iVrrtwo or three days in the sun ; they then should be gathered and spread thin on a dirt floor, taking care to examine and pick out those which may rot. Let them have air plenty. Early cabbage seed should be sown in the first of January, in rich, loose soil. I have often found that burning a brush heap, on good, strong, sandy land, answers the purpose extremely well. Then dig up the ground deep with a mattock, or sprouting hoe, rake and level your bed smooth. Then sow your seed, and cover them as shallow as possible. This is the time of year to be gin <0 prepare our gardens. It now should be broken up very deep with a plough.— Then cover your beds well with manure from the stable, and break it up again.— Where the stable lias been well and regu larly replenished with leaves, the manure is much the best; and the reason is obvi ous, because it is not so burning to vegeta bles. Cabbage plants should be transplan ted as early in March as possible. Ear ly York Cabbage should be planted two feet apart each way in rows. Drumhead, or Mountain White, should be planted at least three feet apart; as soon as they com mence growing, they should be neatly ploughed. This Ido by hitching in a strong hand to a small plough stock, with a small scoup (or scooter) on it ; they then should be neatly hoed over. The garden should be ploughed and hoed at least every two weeks, and suffer neither weeds, grass nor pursley, to infest your cabbage. For late cabbage, the seed should be sown about the middle of June. English Reas should be planted in Jan uary or the first of February, in rows about 3£ feet apart, and in the drill from 10 to 12 inches apart. As soon as they are up, plough and hoe them neatly. When they are about six inches high, they should have a stick by the side of every hill. To en sure a good stand, there should be planted four or five peasitt every hill, cover them about one inch deep, and when properly up thin them to two stalks. These peas make a fine show early in the spring, but if we wish to have the benefit of peas, plant the bunch or dwarf pea in the same man ner. Attend them well with the plough and hoe, and they will yield more abundantly. Peppers should bo sown in the first of April, in drills. When properly up, thin to stand about 10 or 12 inches apart, lea ving one or two stalks in a place. Mustard, for winter us, may be sowed in the fetter part of August, or first of Sep tember, in drills about 18 inches apart, cov eredvery lightly. The bed on which it is sown, should pseviously be made very rich. As soon as it is up, thin it out so as to let ’ every plant have three or four inches space between them. For spring use, it may be sown in the same manner in January of February. It should be hoed and kept clean. Lettuce may be sowed in the last of De cember, or the first of January in drills twelve or fifnen inches apart. As soon as it takes a good start to grow, thin it out to stand two or three inches apart, mind ing, as you use it, to keep thinning it reg ularly; it should also be hoed and kept free from weeds or grass. This bed ,t’ :Id also he very rich. Beets should bo sown in February or the firs’ of March, in a rich, sandy soil, in trows, or 18 inches apart. The seed Imaybepla. \:o drills, 10 or 12 inch es apart, and th four in a plaae; after the plants are no, thin them to one talk or plant, a ; i r. v..d well with plough and hce. A tV-r !•-• v have arrived toper m ’. section, in the full they may be banked liko potatoes, and preserved all winter. Transplanting of beets does not answer well. Beans, bush.or bunch beans may be planted in the last of March, in a rich, sandy soil, in some part of the garden that will shelter them from the North wind, and give them the sun in the early part of tile day. If it should be likely to Irost, cover them at night. They may also be ..med about the full moon in April, and i,i a succession of crops on to the 4th of July, or even later. They may be drilled in rows two foet apart, and after they are well up, thiu to two stalks, 18 or 20 inch es apart. Stick (or pole) beans may be planted from the middle of April to July in the same manner as the others, except that they shouid have more distance, say 2 feet one way and 3J the other. Have your land well manured, and attend well with plough and hoe. As good seed is of the greatest importance, the stalks you allow to save your seed from, till they are perfectly ripe; then gather them out, and dry them properly in the sun, then put them up in a small bag with some tobacco or snuff, and hang them where they can have the air: the tobacco preserves them from the bug in a great measure. The seed should always be saved from the first beans you plant. Cucumbers, Water-melons, and Musk niellons, although they can be raised in a garden, should never be planted there. The reason is obvious—if a garden is not rich land, it should be made rich; this sends up grass and weeds very fast, and vines, after they get properly to running, should never be interrupted, and it would be impossible to keep them free from grass in a garden without moving them; there fore select the poorest sandy old field you have, fence in your patch, lay it off with a plough 12 or 15 feet square, in December; dig a hole in every cross, two feet deep and two feet wide, (or wider still) fill it up as soon as convenient with corn cobs about two thirds full, and beat them down with a maul or crowbar. Let your fifties stand open all winter. In the first of March, fill up the remainder of the hole with manure, (that from a hog-pen is best.) Plant from the Ist to the 20th of April; put 8 or 10 seed in a hill, some of them 10 or 12 inches apart. But before you plant your seed, mix some of the earth or sand with your manure on the top of the hill raise your hill about three or four inch es above the level of the earth, for fear of rain settling it below the surface, and drowning your seed or plants. When they are up and have four or five leaves, thin them to 2 stalks, letting the farthest apart thrifty [ffants stand When they com mr-nco running, lay them so as to run in different directions, so that one vine will not interfere with another. By the time they begin to run, they should be laid by, having your ground perfectly clean. Generally two ploughings and two ho ings will do them. After they have run 3 or 4 feet, they should be confined to the ground with cross sticks, to keep the wind from turning them over, (I mean the water melon vines.) No sickly or deformed mel on shouid be allowed to set on a vine. If you wish to raise large watermelons, let but one melon set on a vine till it nearly gets its growth; also top your vine. As seed is of the greatest importance, save your seed front those melons or cucumbers, which gjow nearest the root of your vine; these are decidedly the best. Vines from these seed will yield more and come ear lier. The above imperfect experience I hum bly beg to submit. MATTHEW HALL. GEORGIA SILK. We have been favored with the following extract of a letter from Mrs. McLanahan, a lady in Philadelphia, engaged in reeling silk, to a gentleman in Camden county. The worms were fed on trees planted on worn cotton lands. Those who, in our State, are not disposed to despond under discouragements which attended an embar cation in that business, will eventually, by perseverance, reap, we trust, that reward which ever attends enlightened enterprise: “ In reference to the cocoons you sent to be reeled, she apologizes for the great length of time she has had them on hand, but hopes you will excuse her, when she says that they were so much superior to those raised in the vicinity of Philadelphia, that she exhibited them to the Franklin In stitute, and was solicited to manufacture out of them a piece of satin, and was there by delayed in procuring a satin loom, for which she waited three months, and on ob taining it, found it not to answer and was unable to procure one in the city. She writes that she finally made it into a blue black Gros de Naples, and supposes that you might probably wish to have a dress of it for your lady at $1 25 a yard, at which price she is selling it. She appears quite elated at the idea of wearing a domestic Silk Gros de Naples.” Mrs. McLanahan reels upon shares,pay ing the owner $5 per pound. Savannah Georgian.
