Then weigh them ; and to every six pounds of melon al low six pounds of the host loaf-sugar, and the juice and yellow rind (pored oil’ very thin) of four large fresh lemons ; also half a pound of race-ginger. Put the slices of lemon into a preserving kettle ; cover them with strong alum water, and boil them half an hour—or longer, if they do not look quite clear. Then drain them, lay them in a bra t 1 vessel of cold water, cover them, and let them stand all night. In the morning tie the race-ginger in a thin muslin cloth, and boitit in three pints of clear pump or spring water till the water is highly flavored. Then take out the hag of ginger. Having broken up the sugar, put it in a clean preserving kettle, and pour the ginger-water over it. When the sugar lias all melted, set it over the lire put in the yellow peel of the lemons, and ‘ boil them and skim it till no more scum ri- i ses. Then remove the lemon-peels put in j the sliced citrons, and the juice of the lent j ons, and boil them in the syrup till the sli- j ces are all quite transparent, but not till they break. When done, put. the citrons and syrup into a large tureen, set it in a dry, cool, dark place, and leave it uncov ered for two or three days till all the wate ry particles have exhaled. Afterward put the slices carefully into wide-mouthed glass jars, and gently pour in the syrup. Lay inside of each jar upon the surface of the syrup a double white tissue-paper cut ex actly to fit, and then close the lids of the jars. This will he found a delicious sweet meat, equal to any brought from the West Indies, and it is well worth doing. Wc re commend it highly. From the Planter. “ When Doctors disagree, Disciplos then are free.” —Old Adage. Talking is one thing, and doing is anoth er. If every man could make his crop or. paper, there would be some wondrous plant ers in the world, and soon would there be a glut in the market. But to my experi ence : In my second year of farming, I planted some cotton. In fact, every body said— “ Fanning would never do in the world, that cotton was theonly tiling which would bring tiie money ;” if every body grew corn, corn would be worth nothing ; that we could not make wheat here, and hence, our only chance was cotton. Well, what every body said, I thought must be true, and cotton I resolved to try. I said to one of my neighbors, one day, how shall I plant this cotton of mine ? He said “ the best way he thought, in such land aud a dry sea son, was to run one furrow, drop therein the seed, and then ridge up on it, and when it began to sprout, then run a board over to knock ofl’the top of the ridge.” I thought a few months on this, and resolved that it would never do in the world, so I asked an other. He told me “to burn off all the grass, weeds and corn stalks, then bed up up at 3 feet or 3£ feet distance, with a Twister, very high, as early as possible, so as to let the beds settle well before planting, as this would ensure a better stand—open with a small plough, put in about 3 bushels to the acre, and cover with a board. And when my cotton came up, not to be a fool | and chop up the whole of it like some folks, j for if cotton was not thick upon the ground it couldn’t make cotton.” Another told me, “ this was all a mista ken notion about bedding up soon, that if I did not bed up until I was ready to plant, 1 would thereby kill the first crop of young grass as it came up, which was equal to one working—l might not get so good a stand, but put on 4 or 5 bushels of seed and there was not much danger—to cover with a harrow, and when tny cotton came up, chop it out to the proper distance at once, and as soon as possible, to thin down to one stalk, about IS inches distance.” Another thought it would be best to bed up my cot ton as close as possible, to spot it, aud give greater distance in the drill. As 1 had al ways heard, that in the multitude of coun sellers there was wisdom, I resolved to try a little of each plan, and decide for myself, by the best of all tests—experience. My cotton came up; fine stand ; I ordered my overseer to chop it out to the proper dis tance forthwith. Mr. So-and-so said “it would ruin it, I would not have half a stand; that it was all nonsense to talk about vourio j cotton being injured by standing%o close.” j My overseer said, “ that the spring was so late, that cotton never could grow much o ver knee high, no how, and he thought it ought to be left thick, to cotton it all well.” It is useless to enumerate the great vari. ety of “ ways to work my crop,” which the ! good people suggested. ‘Every bodv, near- j ly, had some peculiar notion ; some way j of their own, which their neighbors knew’ nothing about, but which they had learned by experience. I soon found out that, like most people who plant eottog, I had planted more than I could do justice to. .My corn often needed work, but “ must wait for the cotton—that coulndn’t wait.” My wheat was cut and shocked in the field, “ it was impossible to get time to haul it in, the grass w; s coming it so strong on the cot ton.” A rainy spell caught it there, and when it was brought home, I had the satis faction of seeing the straw ruined, and the grain sprouted. Some two or throe days were now lost, to save what remained, while the grass was growing none the slow cr. My oats and rye were allowed to stand in the field, till they were dead ripe, my peas were not planted till June, and all this, I owing to the fact, that cotton is our staple j Mv second year’s experienc” then, hath I taught mo this—that n man should never I i plant just us much as hr can calculate, fur I | if a hand fail siek, ho must overtask the ! j others, or he swamped, sure, if the season I i he a bad one ; ut all events, something will 1 i be neglected. And if the season be a good one, and all i remain well, the extra labor spent in ina j During, improving, &e., will toll more in the profits, than any other labor on the farm. That where a man plants cotton as the main crop, every thing will be neglect- j ed for it. That as long as a planterVreputation do- , ponds upon the number of-cotton bales he rolls out every year, he and his overseer will think or care for little else. That it is not the true policy of tho planter, to plant any one thing to the exclusion of another, j of equal usefulness on the farm. That the eternal cry of “if every body j make corn or wheat, why, it will bo worth j nothing,’’is a Humbug—for every body, is not so sensible a body, as people think.— That is a poor policy to make eight bags of cotton to the hand, and spend four of them for meat and bread. And that two-thirds of those planters who make such enormous crops, are Humbugs, having either light bags or empty corn cribs.

[DR.. SI’EN CEB'S VEGETABLE PILLS A PUBLIC BLESSING. TITHESE Pills have long been known ami an A preciated, for their extraordinary and nn\ mediate powers of restoring perfect health to persons suffering under nearly every kind ol dis. ease to which the human frame is liable. They are particularly recommended to all those persons who are afflicted with any kir and cf a chronic or lingering complaint, as there is no medicine before the public which has so natural and happy effect upon the system in correcting tho stomach and liver, and to the fdrmation of healthy chyle and thereby purifying the blood. They are acknowledged by the hundreds and thousands who are being them, to be not only tho most mild and pleasant in their operation, but the most perfectly innocent, safe and efficient medi cine ever offered to the public. Those who” once make a (rial oi these Pills, never afterward feel willing to be without them, and call again and again tor mure ; which is sufficient proof of their good qualities. HEADACHE—SICK OR NERVOUS. Those who have suffered and are weary of suffering with this distressing complaint, will 1 find Speticer’s Vegetable Pills a remedy at once certain and immediate in its eflects. One single dose of the Pills taken soon as the headache is felt coming on, will euro it in one half hour en tirely. 1 Asa remedy in summer anil bowel complaints , they display their wondprful powers to admira tion, and are far superior to any thing in use for these complaints. In Dyspepsia and Liver Complaint, they stand unrivalled. Many have’ been cured in a few weeks, alter having suffered under the dreadful complaint for years. . In Habitual Coslkeness, they arc decidedly superior to any Vegetable Pill ever brought be fore the public ; and one 25cent box will estab lish their surprising virtues, and place them be yond the reacli of doubt in the estimation of eve ry Individual. They are invaluable in nervous and hypochon driacal affections, loss of appetite, and all com plaints to which females alone are subject. They are mild in their action, and convey al most immediate conviction of their utility from the first dose. They may be taken by persons of any age ; aud the feeble, the infirm, the nervous and delicate are strengthened by their operation, because they clear the system of bad humors, quiet nervous irritability, and invariably produce sound health. Upwards of three hundred and seventy thousand boxes of these inestimable Pills have been sold within the last twelve months in three States a lone, and more than three times the same quan tity in oilier States. As an anti-bilious medicine, no family should he without them. A single trial of them is more satisfactory than a thousand certificates. TESTIMONIALS: Columbia co., New- York, Sept. 12, 1841.
