Some from ill tem per abuse this noble animal, and ruin him utterly, before he has come to maturity,— others through lack of judgement induce disease and death, before he has lived out half the days which nature lias assigned him. We find hut very few, indeed, who exer cise good judgement in breaking, in feed ing, and in driving the horse. Vicious tricks are learned at an early age, and it is often impossible to correct bad habits when they are once formed. We find some horses of very fine ap pearance that will insist on setting their own time for starting. Others will refuse to draw until the load is fairly under way. Some will kick their best friends, and some will bite the ostler when he comes to do him an act of kindness. These are the fruits of education, and most of the ugl v tricks of horses are learned in breaking. The first step to be taken in training a horse is halter breaking. It is quite important, when you first undertake to control a young horse, that you let him know that your power is supreme. If he breaks his first halter, he will never forget it, and should he afterwards find himself confined by a cable he will try its strength, because his memory is better than his judgement. The young animal should be repeatedly made fast in different positions ; and lie must have repeated opportunities to test the full virtue of a rope about his head. He should be very carefully tied till lie is ful ly convinced that there is a power above his own strength. When this is once pro perly done a single brown thread will hold him, and a child may lead him. When you fit si require him to move he will not be likely to understand you, and you must be very cautious how you under take to get him into motion. Your most prudent course would be to invite him to accompany another horse that has been trained. After he has been led repeatedly by his side he will be more willing to fol low you alone. The first saddle that is put on his back should not be held up and made to clatter like a scare crow. A pad ding that he lias been allowed to see and to learn that it is not a wild beast, will be more suitable than a common saddle. The first load that a young horse is put to draw should be a very light one. If he gets set at the first trial, he will remember it as long as he will the weak halter ; he will suppose that every load is too heavy and that all halters may be broken. A well trained horse is a rare chattel, yet nothing but plain common sense is ne cessary to qualify any man to break a horse. Some horsemen prefer to let a young animal hare his head till he is four years old and then bring him to the bit and the collar at once, but horses that arc suffered to have their own way till they are four years old are likely to prefer the sweets of freedom which they have so long tasted to any discipline which can he contrived.— The kindest horses are those that were halter broken when they were quite young. FATTENING WHEAT PLANTS. The Buffalo Advertiser contains many valuable editorial articles on the subject of the growth of grain, particularly wheat. In a recent number of that paper, the follow, ing curious remarks appeared, in relation to the improvements recently introduced into the culture of wheat: “The capacity of an acre of land to pro duce wheat, oats, Arc. is by later accounts entirely unsettled, when it is supplied with each of the constituted plants in due pro portion, and under the most favorable cir cumstances for the thick growth of wheat stalks, and for the full developement of long heads, well filled with plump heavy ker nels. Eighty-two bushels of wheat have already been harvested from a single acre ; and who can say that a quart more of grain may not be grown on an acre, either by a lengthening of the ears of corn, (as the English call wheat heads,) or by growing a greater number ? The growing of wheat is like fattening pigs in a pen. With a plenty of good Indian pudding, milk and water placed in the mouths of healthy swine, how many pounds of pork can pos sibly be made in a pen twenty feet square ? Certainly, vastly more than is usually ob tained from a pig-sty, of such dimensions. This is the way they grow and fatten wheat plants in England. They are most skil fully fed on all the food they can consume; and as above stated, the result is already eighty-two bushels to the acre. Rules worth being Observed by Farmers. —l. Perforin every operation in the proper season. 2. Perform every operation in the best manner. 3. Always keep your im plements and tools in the best order.— 4. Finish one job before you begin another. 5. After finishing a job always return your tools to their proper places. 6. Do not put in a crop too large to cultivate well. 7. Personally attend to every operation, and see that it be effectually done.— Baltimore j American. Fence Corners. —Some writer hints the piopriety of digging up fence corners, &c., and planting them with winter squashes,! beans and bttsh peas. We doubt whether! ihere could be any more judicious advice given. Much land by this means, which is now neglected, might be made to yield j abundantly, and would doubly pay for the j little trouble necessary to place it in a state : of cultivation. Picture to yourself the con trast oxhibited by the corners thatsurround a field in this improved condition, and those that are filled with briers and weeds, and consider if the former is not more in accor dance with both fancy and judgement. If j a farmer has an übundanco ofland without bis fence corners, and his other insulated j out of the way pieces ofeurth, we can’t see j to what better use lie coinld appropriate ! these, than by planting them with ornamen -1 tal trees, for the purpose of sheltering his | cattle, keeping down the weeds and shield- I ing the jaded traveller from the scorching | l ays of the sun. MANURE. I Umit no exortion within your reach or j power, to increase the quantity of your ma j nitre. Recollect that as that lies at the foundation of good husbandry, so it is the hand-maid by which the farmer acquires competency or wealth. In clearing out ditches, remove that which is thrown out to the barn, pig-sty, or compost heap. Col ; lect all the weeds growing around your fences and bye-corners ; do not suffer them to go to seed, but add them to the compost heap. TO PRESERVE THE TEETH. Let finely pulverized charcoal be heated to redness in an iron kettle, and while hot, pour into a bowl of clean water. Put this immediately into a bottle and cork it tight. When used, shake it up, take a small quail tity into the mouth, and rub the teeth.— Everything that renders the breath un pleasant, and injurious and destructive to the teeth, will be removed. Or, if dry powder is preferred, the charcoal may be put into the phial, and secured from the air | by a tight cork. Good. —An editor in Vermont says, “ A friend informs us that he could send us a I marriage notice, hut as the young gentle man does not take a paper, lie does not \ think editors under any obligation to pub -1 lisli his marriage. That’s a point; but the mystery about it is, how any young la dy in this age can afford to marry a follow who takes no paper! Poor thing I A Noble Deed. —During the last earth quake at Point a Pctre, a gentleman was rescued from death by the heroic efforts of a slave. He was immediately offered a handsome reward for his humanity. “No, no,” said the generous fellow—“nothing for money to-day—all for the love of God 1” History scarcely records a nobler senti ment. The Colonial Council voted him 2,000 francs, 1,500 to purchase his free dom, and 500 for an outfit in his new ca reer. Three modes of Living. —He who lives within his means, is daily growing rich ; lie who lives beyond his means, is con stantly running down the hill to poverty ; and he who lives without means, is a rob ber of others’ earnings. TO MERCHANTS AND PLANTERS. HQI HAMBURG, (S.C.) July, 1843. I BUG leave to inform you, that I continue the WARE-HOUSE AND COMMISSION BUSINESS at my old stand, known as the IPe ter-proof Warehouse.

I avail myself of the present occasion, to re turn my thanks to my friends and patrons, for their liberal support during the past season. I ‘ solicit from them and the public generally, a con tinuance of this confidence, and assure them that in return for their patronage, I wil use my best personal efforts to promote knd protect their in terests, committed to my charge.

This Extra Edition will be commenced with the number of Decem ber 9th, containing the President’s Message at the opening of the new Congress, and continuing to the number which in November, 1844, shall announce the result of the Presidential Election, (being fifty weeks, or numbers.) Os this Extra Edition, we will send through the whole term Twenty Copies lo one address for Twenty Dol lars. Where the papers are required to be sent to different Post-Offices, or where the name of the subscriber is required to be written on each, we must insist on our uniform price, Two Dollars for a single copy per year; Ten copies or more at the rate of One Dollar and a Half each. Do not ask us to swerve from this rule, friends ! for the thing is impossible. The character of The Tribune is by this time generally known It aims to reconcile the lar gest freedom of thought and action with a pro found reverence for Law and obedience 1o right ful Authority; to be the stern foe of all discord, anarchy and turbulence, but the champion of ev ery generous idea, however novel or unpopular, which has for its end the upraising of the oppres sed and lowly. While it proffers no claim to the to the abused name of Democracy, so long the cloak of political Pharisees, the cantos designing demagogues, it will be, as it has been, in the le gitimate sense of the word, truly Democratic— the adversary of every wrong, the exposer of hol low profession and scheming knavery, and the advocate of every movement tending to the dif fusion of true Freedom and the upward progress of the Human Race. The Weekly Tribune is published in this city every Saturday morning, but dispatched by the mails of Thursday and Friday. It is of the lar gest size, folded in eight pages, so as to be about the average size oftwo common newspapers.— Subscriptions are respectfully solicited. GREELEY & McELRATH. 160 Nassau-st.
