To prose I’Ve Potatoes A 'fi’iirisips Ihriitigh Winter, 'l'u tin bid. of tin Farmer \ (Itirdcncr: In compliance with thy request of the Btli iust. I will describe tny practice of preserving potatoes nnd turnips through winter, for the benefit of thy southern correspondent, 11. C. Hoyt, nnd others. I have found hut little cliliiculty in keep ing them in a sound state, in the latitude of Baltimore, and I think they could al so be preserved in North Carolina, hy managing us follows: Dig the potatoes after there has licen frost enough to kill the \ ine.s. < Lie day’s sit it will dry them sufficiently for storing, a longer time of exposure would make them rancid. Select a place for storing the roots oil a dry, north hill side, sttfii cicntly elevated to preserve them from the injurious effect* of soaking rains.— Dig the hides for receiving them from one to three feet deep, according to the soil, and not more than four feet wide, else it will contain too large a Imlk for preserving them without fermentation.— Thu hole or pit may he made of any con venient length which may he desired then (ill in (lie potatoes, and raise the pile above ground as long its they will lie on the pile, and coverthem one or two inch* cs thick with dry leaves, wheat straw, or chalf; then cover the hole regularly with the surrounding earth, enough to keep out the frost—here (Baltimore) it requires 18 inches of earth, especially on the north side of a heap. Let it he well packed, and heaped to a point or ridge nnd smoothly pressed "R it It a shovel, so as to exclude the water from soaking in. If the heap lie surrounded hy a small drain tit n little distance from the pile, so ns to carry off the lain, it would be an ad ditional security against the injurious ef fects of dampness. Turnips may he saved in the same manner, with the additional precaution of forming a vent at the top of each hole, or one at each end of n long pit, if that form is adopted; which may be in the following way: After the straw covering is on, fix a piece of wood about three inches diame ter, and eighteen inches or two feet long, on the top of the hole, and then pile on the earth around it, and pack it close, the thickness intended. By working the piece of wood, it may he withdrawn leaving a smooth hole through the cov ering to the roots. In order to keep out the rain, Jkc., lay around the hole three half bricks, or stones, to support a large sod, cut from a firm green sward, which will cover the hole and the hri k or stone, nnd will preserve the opening to pass off the moisture from the turnips, which is very injurious to their preservation.— l Smaller holes or sides for the turnips will be safer, and perhaps a mixture of dry sand would bo found useful, as it has been found valuable in suing beets, «ke. Thy Ftiend, ROBERT SINCLAIR. Economy in Linen Washing. A correspondent of a Dundee paper writes as follows: “ Vfiler many experi ments made by myself and others, I lint! that pipe-clay, dissolved among the water employed in washing, gives the dirtiest linen the appearance of having been bleached, and cleans them thoroughly with about half the labor, and full a sat ing of one fourth the soap. The method adopted, was to dissolve a little of the pipe-clay among the warm water in a washing tub, or to rub a little of it togeth er witli the soap on the articles to he washed. The process was repeated as often as required, until the articles w ash ed were made thoroughly clean. All who tried the experiment, have agreed that the saving of soap ami labor is great; and that the clothes are improved in col or equally as if they were Ideuehod. The pecu liar advantage of employing this ar ticle with the soap is, that it gives the hardest water almost the softness* of rain water.” The IStisbantlmai:. There is one prevailing error among this class of society which oujlit to be eradicated and destroyed—it is more fa tal to the basin -s of agriculture than the growth of Canada thistles, <>r the destruc tion of the May frosts—we mean the neg lected education of the farmer’s children. It is frequently remarked that education is of little use to the farmer; a very little science will do for him. Great knowl edge is only beneficial io the professional man. expressions of this sort are found ed upon a false estimate of one of the most useful and elevated professions of life. If the habitual business of the cultiva tor does not afTord the mental powers a field for their most extended exercise, we know not where to look for such a field. The study of agriculture unites to the theory of science the very essential ma terial of its practical parts, it uiakesthe student experimentally and truly learned. When we look upon the vast extent of tlje territory of this continent, and con sider the fertility of the soil, tliu rich mines and the extensive minerals it pos sesses, we are presented with an almost illimitable ficl I for mental research and scientific improvement. Nearly e very thing that is useful in our pilgrimage through life is drawn from the earth. The main use of science is to explore the niiuulia; of nature, to fathom its secret caverns, nniTao bring forth the hidden possessions of the earth into in comprehensible identity. Where then is the occupation that so richly furnishes a perpetual supply of mental food as that of agriculture, lotlic constant exercis es and every day labor of the farmer the business of Ins science is progressing, if Ids intellect lias been set right in the ed ucation of tiis youth. The theory is all essential, for tins constitutes the imple ment by which lie is to prosecute the stu dy of nature to its practical utility. A man cannot go forth upon the land with any good degree of proud • in sci entific experiment, without the light of /unit experience upon his path way, and thi* be can only obtain by a passage through the literary institutions of the country, where the results of the labors of the learned for ages are collected to gether and made accessible to the stu dent. To attempt a prosecution of the study of the sciences independent of the past experience, as we sometime* incline to consider ourselves, would lie vain.— There is scarcely a valuable discovery of modern times hut lias borrows and some thing of its proportions or utility from ti e mint! of antiquity. Among the inhumed ruins of Pompeii and Herculaneum, a vast multitude of artificial curiosities have recently been discovered, among w hich are implements of surgery—one in particular was found upon comparison with a very late inven tion in Paris, to he nearly like it, and a still greater improvement in London to be exactly the same. Here we have the result of the labor* of two of the most en lightened kingdoms on •earth—and what does it prove? Why simply that they come up to the science of a people w ho have slept almost two thousand years in an unknown grave. When the entire tomb of Vesuvius shall he broken up and explored, there is little doubt that many more of our modern discoveries will find their exact Pompeiian and Herculaneum prototypes. There facts cannot fail to portray clearly the importance of a study of past experiments of human life, both a* a source of profit and an actual sat ing ofiiime, labor and expense. That the farmer by a scientific culti vation of llis land, can increase to a very great extent its productions, there does not exist a rational doubt. And that the time is coining when there will be actual necessity lor this i..crease of production, there is every possible appearance. It is therefore not only wise and i xpedient to commence or rather carry on now, this improvi incut in husbandry, hut it is a high duty which is owed already to pos terity, in consideration of all the blessings which past ages have bequeathed to us. 1 ' " ' ' I Permit ns, therefore, in our humble way, to impress upon the minds of the fanners the very "rout usefulness of edu cation to their children. (Jive your sons and daughters not the less education be cause you design them for rural life and agricultural pursuit. If you are aide, educate them they will find abundant employment for all their science though their farms bg located in the deep wilder ness of the west; though they he cast amid barren rocks and sterile sand plains, science will aid them there. Not a blade »f "Ms nor spear of strain hut will grow better under the cultivation of intellectual care. Not a (lower but will show beauties to the eye of science, which the vulgar world knows not of.—• Not a vine but rears liner and produces more where educated hands superintend its growth. In short, nil nature is beau tified. improved and bettered, where the cultivator is no stranger to its properties ami the science of its devclopemcnt. Partners, give your children education. It is the only earthly inheritance you can bequeath them that is beyond the reach ot accident. All other human property is constantly changing and transitory.— Science is not transferable—not like the mutability of other fcood, negotiable; it i firm and unshaken by human vicissitude. It will he the enduring companion of your children through life—it will sup port them in nil the nfllictions of Provi dential chastisement, and prepare them for tin inheritance in that undiscovered conntrv bovond the land of death. 7V.n/ M Atg.

August 30 52 ra6nt* PBOFOML*, For publishing, in the City of Nashville, Tennessee, a weekly Periodical, under flic patronage of the Methodist epis copal Church, to be called the Sottlli-lYcslefu €!ia*l*4t«si Advocate. Y b| 11L General (Conference of tlie Me tiiodist Episcopal Church, resolv ed, at its late session in Cincinnati, Ohio, to establish three additional weakly jour nals, of the same character of those al ready existing in Cincinnati and N. York. The places selected for the contempla ted operations of these additional papers, are, Richmond, A a., Charleston, 8. C., and Nashville, Term. The considerations, in view of which these important measures were adopted hy the highest authority in the Methodist | Episcopal Church, are suck as have ac tuated her from the commencement of her successful career. It is to co-oper ate with the good and wise of the age and country in which we iive, in promoting the present and eternal welfare of man; — this is that for which the Church herself exists, and for which she bears so promi nent a part among the sister Churches of tliis Republic, in the benevolent move ments of the day : In promoting the in terests of Bible, Missionary, Sunday School, and Tract Societies: In building tiji Colleges, Academies, and Schools, in general, for the benefit of the rising gen eration. No amplitude, enlargement, or variation of means used in support of these interests, implies any change in the one gnat purpose of doing good. A Irion. the first of these important means, may he ranked the Periodical press. This, indeed, is the lever power of the ago. Its mighty energies may he brought to bear with more power and efficiency upon the high destinies of man, than most other means united, apart from that Gospel which “ is the power of God unto salva tion.” A moral leverage of such tre mendous energy, it is easy to perceive, may he made the fearful instrument of unspeakable mischief. Ft is, therefore, the solemn duty of the Church—a duty which she owes to her children, to her country, and to her Great Head, to di rect tlie operations of this mighty engine with a prudent hand and a steady pur pose. The fostering and guiding hand of the Church, acting by tiic instrumen tality of agents of her own appointment, and over whom she exercises absolute control, is certainly among the best means of securing the proper manage ment of the press. Responsible, indeed, is the position of that man whose char acter and qualifications for this work have been virtually endorsed by the Gen eral Conference ot the Methodist Episco pal Chord). If such high responsibili ties should fail to call forth the best ef forts of the Editor of the South-Western Christian Advocate, no promises, on his part, could he expected to do so. It I mav not be amiss, however, to make a few statements as to the topics which the Editor will feel himself at liberty to dis cuss in *dsis paper. As citizens of these United States, the members and friends oftlie Methodist Episcopal Church, have, in common with others, an abiding in terest in the welfare of our flourishing country, her civil institutions, &c. It is not tlie province, however, of religious journals to participate in those angry con tests for political ascendancy which so distract, at times, the elements of common society. It is, nevertheless, in perfect accordance w ith the design of this jour nal, to give a summary of foreign and domestic intelligence, as is common for such journals. As the South-A\ r estern Christian Ad vocate will lie officially patronized by the General Conference of the Methodist E piscopal Church, for the same purposes contemplated in the management of its entire Book Concern, it will be expected* as a matter of course, that the system of doctrine and well-tried usages of that Church should receive a hearty support; —this, however, does not require, that tiie doctrines and usages of other denom inations should be interfered with, nor is it intended they shall be, unless in self defence. This journal will circulate, we pre sume, mostly (though - not exclusively we hope,) in the South-West. From this, it must not be supposed that Methodists in this division of our common country, have any interests or claims to defend, a side from the Church, in general. We are one people every where. We look, however, to the South and AA’est mainly for support; and we shall not be disappointed. The preachers, both travelling and local, will not only aid in extending tlie circulation of this paper, but they will write for its columns. Yes, brethren, we claim this at your hands, in the name of our common cause* Arrangements hare been made with the Editor and Proprietor of the AA EST ern Methodist, .by which his entire printing establishment will probably be transferred to the General Book Concern, and the profits of this paper be applied to charitable purposes, as are those of the New York and Cincinnati Advocates. Great pains will be taken to secure a neat and faithful execution of the me chanical part of the paper. New type will be procured, and competent work men employed to execute the whole, in a manner, which, it is hoped, will deserve an extensive patronage. Terms of Publication. The terms of publication will he $2 per year, if paid in advance; —$2 50 within six mouths; —$3, if not paid be fore the end of the year. Subscriptions paid within one year after receiving the first number, either to the Editor or to his authorized agents, will be considered as in advance. Post-Masters, the itinerant and local preachers of the Methodist Episcopal Church, are the duly authorized agents for this paper. Agents will please retain this Prospec tus for future use, and forward the names, &.C., to the Editor, Nashville, Tennessee. The first number oftlie South-West ern Christian Advocate, will he issued, without Fail, the first week in November next. THOMAS STRINGFIELD. Nashville, duly 4, 1836. 3 I* li O » P E V TCS.

This paper will he issued on the first of January, 1827, provided provision suffi cent, shall have been laid in by that time for its support. li is deemed now, altogether unneces sary, to employ argument to show the propriety of having such a publication; the subject is fully before the public.— \A r e only say to tlie friends of the cause that if they want a Temperance Papes pnblished in Georgia, they must bestir themselves in its behalf.
