ESGLISII AGRICUL TURE. t
FROM THE AMEIIIOVN FARMER.
Klnfract of a let ter from a gentleman now in (i
England, to his fraud in Virginia, dated '
V Hulkium, 1 Oth July, 1824. L
As you are a renowned firmer, 1 thought j
it m ist classical to give you a few lines (rum V
♦ In; celebrated domain ol Mr. Coke, the ;
great agriculturist and opulent commoner,j
especially as I find paper, pen, Ink, wax, f
&c. on the table, to which 1 am sh iwn (
in my lodging ro >n. Here you have every t
tlung at your elbow, and need no further!
waiting on. fhc house is on a scale of j t
which you liavc no idea : In his manners r
Mr 0. is quite plain ; he is very coinmuni-j
cative, and m ist profusely hospitable. II p
is a true whig, and lias always been on the i
American side in our controversies with!t
England, for which we ought to like him. j
t have learned in Norfolk, that our mode I
of trying live hedges has never been fair.';
They are (he great ornament of England, and i
are well worth a further experiment; tho’ I
I doulit if our unlearned pigs would nut j I
penetrate them eveiyu Norfolk. Tie thnni'n
should he planted m double rows, each i
plant being ab ml four inches from its neigh- i
bor, thus, —they sh mid be protected 1
wh m young by smae other* enclosure— i
sli mid be trimmed every year on the sides,
so as to make them shoot upwards, and to (
make them dense. Moreover, the seeds i
should he sown in a nursery, an I the young't
plants removed when you wish them. i
I'lic sheep and turnips are the great mat- |
ter here. I find the turnips are subject to (
many accidents from the lly, as with us. (
Toey pul Uiem in drills--! saw some ves-'h
terday with four or five small leaves. Tin* hi
produce ol sheep is ama/.iog—l mean the;,
yield in money. Mr. C die has lately sold 1 !
sheen, fifteen month* old, thus— tl ece, I Os.; 1 ,
meat, in London, 37*.. equal to JJI. 175.1,
sterling. .Mr. Coke's metho 10l cultivating l ,!
turnips is worth one trial. 1 never saw u;,
in Virginia. Tne ground is nicely prepared
in drills, the s eds are sown very tliick in i
drill to all iw lor the ravages of the II y, and j
still have-plants enough, lie assure* me \
lie ha* never failed since he adopted this
method. Here wheat, barley, and almost [.
every thing, is drilled. Labor is too dearjii
wi i u* fir that, but we might drill turnips.l,•
I'iiey make no use ol piaster of paris in | t
E'igland, as numire. Hut,(he quantity of,
stable manure they put on the ground is ! <>
auu/.ing. I never saw, except on asp,ragu* ,|
beds, any thing like it, • 1 it is'j
unpleasant to ride neai* a uewfv ploughed
field, from the smell of the stable yard. 1 ~
have seen ground bone als ) used as manure *
Near Lincoln it is much esteemed, but in
Norfolk less, Ihe land in England is evei v n
where nearly level, except a few barren hills. (
There is more laud wide 1 was by nature bar
ren thin I supposed, but then they have
lime, chalk, &c. every where, and grass'll
seems to grow kindly even on the poorest. } v
Here you hardly see any fruit which is' c
not cspnliered on the wall. They think they I;
have the finest in the world. It is large
and fair undoubtedly, but certainly as far as
I have seen, has less flavor than ours. We ,
had at table yesterday, at llolkham, a musk
meloti, grapes, strawberries, raspberries, and *
cherries: the grapes fresh from the hot-';
house, beautiful purpl ■ ones, but not equali
in tlav or to those we have eaten at Mr.
The strawberries were enormous, beyond j
any thing, but not so sweet as ours.
Mr. Coke is greatly enamored of his He- '
voushirc cattle. He says the oxen are far 1
superior—the milk, the bitter, the meal,'!
and every tiling better. They are uniform- ‘
1 v of one color, somewhat of a reddish bay,|<
with long horns ; not very large, but round
ami well formed, and ate the handsomest ‘
cattle 1 have ever seen. He i* forsaking his
old stock of sheep, which was > did fit. He!)
now has what he calls the improved Down/
which he thinks every way superior. Hatl|
1 have seen no mutton better than our own,l
certainly none si good as the Alleghany.I
The bee I is generally better than ours, and;
instead of eating it half raw as vou hear, it'
is cooked most admirably.
The climate is cool beyond what 1 had I
supposed. Vou see most people travelliii" > l
iu cl mk* in June and July, and you always!
find two blmkets on yom bed ; one of which,
and soiuelim-s the other is uece— iry. V , I
terday we had a fire. It rains almost every
day, generally light showers.
The wheat and barley „f (( Pkham are
throughout as good as the best 1 ver Nl w
but that i* not the case elsewhere. Toe
wheat is ofteu very foul, sometimes irregulai
in Its growth, but generally looks vigorous—
it is now in flower, but no idea can lie formed
of the crop, Mr. C. says that it is not sc
uncertain a crop with him, as it is generally
represented to be in England.

s Amongst other curious and amusing mat
u ter, it contained a chapter upon supersti
tion, with some details on what the learned
are pleased to call the science of Onomato
mancy, the origin of w hich is attributed to
Hn ich. This boasted science is nothing
1 more than a mode of divining or ascertain-
I ing the destiny or fortune of any individu
al, by the letters of which his, or her, name,
may be composed. Pythagoras, vve are in
’ formed, had recourse to this method, when
he constructed his wheel of fortune, upon
which the letters, divided into 12 parts,
. corresponded with the twelve signs of the
.Zodiac. It is known that Pythagoras and
Jhis followers, were partial to great names —
, every letter, said they , had its particular nu
, metical value—a proper estimate of which,

J This is the principle :—Take the letters!
(of our alphabet in their order, thus, A— I,
1 B—2, C—3, I)—4, &c.; according to
which, we find that th • name of Buonaparte:
amounts to 114; no wonder then, that he
was beaten on the plains of VVa'.erl m, by
,| Wellington, who numbered 131—especial
ly when it is considered that Buonaparte,!
!hv omitting the n in the Frencinftcation of
his name, lost 22—whilst, on the other hand
Wellington,by an elevation from Welles
ley, gained eight. Under such circumstan-
Ices, tne French General must hive inevita
jbly been beaten, even by Mr. Wilber’force !
Who can he surprised that the attendant
angel of Brutus, with hi* til, should triumph
over that of Uicsar—giving the latter the i
full advantage of his dipthung ; or that Mr.
■Canning, with his (i 2, should invariably be 1
compelled to yield—as some say be does

| terfered in the production of them, as she
, did in the failure of the Bank in that place
• —which was caused, as all persons now be
lieVe, by an entire inability, from first to

M e stated some time ago that Messrs.
Davis, Stocks, Hudson and Holt, had been

• TRANSPORTATION OF THE MAILS.
The Mails. —A Circular, of which the
_ following is a copy, has been addressed by
the Post Master General to the contractors
for carrying the Mails of the United States.
Post Office Department, 1 5th Jan. 1825.
The Postmaster General has observed,
ks with great regret, that the exertions of some
m contractors, on important mail routes, have
not equalled his expectation, or the expecta
e tion of the public.
5, This is the season, w hen to avoid failures,
the utmost exertions, of all concerned in the
transportation of the mail, are necessary.
No obstacles, which human exertions can
If overcome, shall excuse a failure. Any want
r of energy, in this respect, will first be noti
. ced by the highest pecuniary penalty, and,
fur a second failure, the contract will be
forfeited.
u There will be no departure from this rule,
u Os this, those most interested may be fully
s assured.
On all roads which become so deep as to
I render the rapid progress of stages impracti-
II cable, contractors are requested to place the
> mail in covered sulkies, or in other jjfiiicles
| better suited for the purpose, andulh this
(manner to continue the transportSSmn of it,
iuntil the roads will admit of stag*. What
' | ever may be the condition ojjj»fhe route, no
; |trip should be lost.
>j Ihe sudden rise of water courses may
stop the passage of the njail; bad roads can
jnot cause even the ladure ol a trip, if the
proper means be aj.plied with the necessary
‘ energy.
There are many roads where a sta^e,
: with six or eight passengers and a large
quantity of baggage, cannot travel live or six
miles an hour; but there is no mail stage
road in the Union on which the mail cannot
1 he conveyed in a suikey or cart, as rapidly
as the contract requires. If two horses to a
cart do not give sufficient force, four should
be, applied.
The transportation of the mail must not be
made a secondary object—those who con
sider it in this light, will very soon beat
liberty to bestow their undivided attention
to the conveyan. e of passengers.

INDIAN TREATIES.
On the 18th inst. the President, by and
jwith tin; advice and consent of the Senate
ratified two Treaties, one with the low.ty, *
a.ul the other with the Sac ami Fox nations
ot Indians, both ol which were concluded on
!lhe 4th of August last, by the Head Chiefs
,ol those nations, and Commissioners on the
part of the United Slates.
By these treaties the Indians renounce
all their claim to lauds in the state of Mis
souri, situated between the Mississippi and
■ die Vlissouri rivers aniTa lioe running from
die Missouri, at the emraiice of the Kansas
river, north one hundred miles, to the norrh
'vt‘st corner of the state of ’■ issouri ; and
from thence east to the Mississippi. The A
s mall tiact ol land lying between die rivers j
Desmom and (lie Mississippi, and the sec- :
tion of the above line between tin Mississip
pi and the Desmoin, is reserved for the use ~ jj
of the halt breed belonging to the Sac. and 'w
Fox nations, they holding it, however, by I
the same title, and in the same manner, that
other Indian titles are held. *
None of these tribes arc permitted to set- jU
tie or hunt upon any part, of the ceded land, £
'after the Ist of January, 1826, without spe- J
Jcial permission from the Superintendent of T
Indian Affairs.
la lieu of the land ceded by these Trea
ties, the United States have agreed to pay i
the loways five hundred dollars, and the
same sum annually for ten veais. The
Sacs and Foxes are to receive one thousand
dollars, and an annuity of live hundred dul- < ,
lars for ten years. They are also to be pro '*
vided with a blacksmith, anti receive such
assistance as may be necessary to aid them
in the pursuits of agriculture.
