a proper size, he took (hem up, and divi
ding’ the roots, set them out when the soil
was wet, tilling up the ground he had ap
propriated for the expf.iiment. Began to
cut the grass ou the t6th July. 164 stalks
from 6to 7 feet high, growing from one
root, weighed together 30 pounds; the
number of stalks were 134, some of which
measured ten feet eleven inches in length.
Some part of the lot very poor soil; grass
there 6 and 7 feel high.
One acre will more than support five
horses most abundantly the year round.
One-eighth of an acre, of very fertile land,
near Fort Adams, from plants set out the
first and second week in May, without any
trouble except cutting down the first growth
of grass on the 20th June, say in five or six
weeks, allowed cutting for plough horses
and mules, anil supplied them with as much
as they could eat during the whole summer.
Oo the 25th September it had been cut four
times, and in iwo weeks would be cut the
fifth.
From twenty roots, the fourth cutting
yielded 250 lbs. of green grass.
No kind of grass supports the heat of the
sun better—and from the first of July until
N killed by the frost, it will afford a constant
’ and abundant supply of green food.
The seed should be sown as early in the
spring as the danger from frost is over, and
the plants set out when two or three inches
high. They will readily take root. A
basket or tw o of young plants will be suffi
cient for an acre.
One hundred plants would enable a poor
fnnily to keep a cow in town, or supply a
dray horse with food all the summer.
About the 20lb of May, Mr. A. S. Allen
having kindly brought me some seed, which
Ivlr. .Gales obligingly sent me, I sowed part
of it in a bed 52 feet long by 5 feet wide, in
three drills. From it l have planted out, at
a Smithville, 187 root3 in a bed 23 feet
square, 1 have planted an irregular piece,
at home, with 200 roots; and from the
same bed many more roots can and ought
to be taken, it having been sown, by uu un
skillful hand, irregularly and too thick.
This, with a little difference of the soil at
one end of Ihe bed from the idler, occa
sions the grass to be uneven. Some of it
actually measures a little upwards of G feel
6 inches. 1 should have begun to cut this
day [July 5] —but observing that Dr..
Brown, who sowed as early as April, at
Natchez, began only the 16th of July, I
think I shall defer it till that day. Besides
the above bed. which I shall call my exper
iment bed, 1 have sown a much larger space
of ground, from which i shall have it in my
power to give liberally, to any persons,
without distinction, disposed to give it due
attention, and will leave their names with
you. COLUMELLA.

THE MECHANICS
There is no condition in life better calcu
lated than that of a laborious mechanic!;,
for a roan to feel and realize a proper sense
of his own digbity and independence. He
retires to his meals from the fatigues of the
day, with a full conviction that his sturdy
hand has earned the refreshments of his ta
ble. He feels that his vvealtny neighbour
cannot enjoy ever, his opulence without his
assistance. His time never hangs upon bis
hands: and his robust frame and his hardy
sinews attest how essential his exercise is to
the health of his body. He progresses on
ward, as it were by inches, to competence ;
and he learns the practical lesson ot econo
my and frugality in his expenditures. Re
moved from the vices and gorgeous lempta
tions of a fashionable life, he knows how
to bridle his ambition: he feels the bles
sings of (he family hearth, and can look
without a sigh on the pageantry of the day.
This is a true moral independence —this
curb on our unruly desires, ibis temperance
in the exercise of all onr wishes, are the
very’ materials that constitute valuable cit
izens. It should be the pride, as undoubt
edly it is the right of a labouring man, to
indulge in such ideas. Roys that tire put
out as apprentices to mechanical profes
sions are taken many times from a state ot
poverty and ignorance, and prepared for
fulfilling afterwards honourable stalious.
If they would but properly comprehend the
full extent of such benefits, they would see
nothing but their future honour, dignity and
independence in their own indentures

he called upon to perform their part on the
grand theatre ot human life. It is a noble
sio-ht, and one of the best symptoms of the
long continuance of our free republican in
stitutions, when we behold apprentices
alert, vigilant, and industrious, prompt to
learn and zealous to excel. They may
hear of naval and military glory ; but their
is a glory more perman nt. The State
calls but here and there, and now and then,
for heroes—this is only during the period
of carnage and war, of butchery and blood.
The glory of a labouring man is connected
with all that is dear to human life—it is
idemified with peace and contentment, with
the early smoke that arises from the family
cottage, with the bleat of the merry flocks,
with the ripeniug harvest that seems to nod
as if impatient of the sickle. These tri
umphs are not won by blood and carnage,
they are pacifick, victories, and let it be re
membered that (he Saviour of the world is
called the Prince of Peace.

REVIVAL IN BOSTON.
The friends of Zion will rejoice with us that
the Lord continues to manifest himself in this city
as the prayer-hearing God. It is believed that so
far from any abatement of the gracious operations
of the Spirit, they are daily becoming more pow
erful; the number of inquirers and of hopeful
converts is increasing; publick lectures are evi
dently gaining interest in the community, and
more private, social meetings are multiplied and
attended with deep solemnity. Forty-eight per-,
sons now stand propounded for admission to Park
"street Church. If we are able to judge correctly,
there is stil! a growing disposition aaiong Chris
tians to regard the work as the Lord’s and to be
come labourers together with him in its progress.
It is hoped that what has hitherto been seeu and
felt of the Divine presence, will prove to be but
the commencement of a Revival that shall extend
to every congregation in the city ; and to this re
sult, we earnestly hope that the faith and the
prayers of the children of God throughout the
land may be directed without ceasing. Yes,
brethren, we repeat it— u Pray for us.” Ib.

At the date of the last accounts from Europe
(March 27) the French army on the Spanish
frontier had made no roovemeui of a hostile na

that place, it was expected that the army would
commence its march for the Spanish capital.—
Little hope was entertained that the mediation of
England would prevent the threatened war.

ENGLISH FEELING.
A publick dinner was given in London
on the 7lh March to the Spanish and Portuguese
ministers, which was very numerously attended
by persons of the highest distinction. Such \va6
the eagerness to obtain seals, that sums exceed
ing 200 Spanish dollars were offered for singli
tickets ! and many were necessarily denied even
on these exorbitant terms. Lord VV rn. Bentiek
presided, and among the guests were the Luke
of Sussex (brother of the King) the Duke of
Somerset, the Marquis of Lausdown, Lord Lrs
kine and other noblemen, several members of (lie
House of Commons, and a great number of the
most distinguished citizens of the metropolis. The
following extract is from the address of Sir James
Mackintosh, delivered r.n this occasion :
“ Spain has published no decrees threatening
ihe independence of other governments—Spam
has published no incitements to people to revolt
against sovereigns—Spain has not declared that
other forms of government are less lawtul than
her own—Spain, religiously respecting the law of
independent nations, has held every other gov
ernment rightful that an independent nation, has
established, or that an independent nation main
tains. The allies in 1793 (I do not espouse their
ca „ se —1 do not approve their conduct—but I am
bound in justice to them *o state their declara
tions) did not invade France on account of her
institutions, hut because she had held out en
couragement to revolt in other slates, and com
mitted a very serious aggression on a not incousid
rable one. (Hear,) No ; the meditated invas
ion of Spain is more like the invasion of Poland
by Catharine of Russia, vvho, after modestly in
forming the world that she had heen raised to the
throne by her virtues, declared that -the right of
vicinage entitled her to interfere in the affairs of
Poland, and to bring it back to an orderly- condi
tion—for the sake, perhaps, of supporting the sale
of Russian mules. (Laughing and applause.)—
r Allusion was here made to the declaration of the
French minister, that the revolution in Spain had
diminished the sale of French mules, and French
produce.] The attack upon Spain, in principle,
conies to this—that there is bright of interference
of any state when the form* of government differ
so that the people may be tempted by the ex
ample of one to change the constitution of the
other The consequence of this principle must
be interminable war, or war only terminable when
ali the constitutions of the earth are reduced to
the same form. If it is a ground of war for a mon
archy against a moredemocratick constitution, it
is a ground of war for a democracy against a mon
archy (applause) or fora limited monarchy
jnst on absolute one; it would justify Russia
in attempting what, thank God, she cannot effect
— lhe detlri lion of the Stales of America ; it
would justif the emperour Alexander in putting
a Cossack g rrison in Londoh, and in imposing,
by the tiniti I wisdom of Siberia and Kamschatka,
‘ conservati s principles’ on the descendants of
Hampden iid of Sidney. (Applause.) Last
j year, on th closing of the session, the French
j king told th chambers that nothing hut the black
est malevo nee could impute to the Sanitory
Cordon any other purpose than that which was
then profess and, the keeping out of the yellow fe
ver; that lose only could attribute to it any
other ohjec who seized every opportunity to re
kindle the IJf extinguished brands of disorder
and war. Applause.) On the 6th of June,
1822, no loner ago than a fe.v months, the king
of France sav no danger in Spain ; so far was ht
from seeing it,“that nothing but the blackest ma
levolence cookl impute to him a desire to inter
fere will it. (A laugh.) Now we see who it is
that wodd rekind e the half extinguished brands
of disorler and wir. Weisee the king of France
himselllrindling p a war, which, limited as he
may wish it to be, must weakeu the security of
every lation of the world, and the extension of
whichto all Europe is at least a matter of extreme
proballiity.
Abdication and voluntary exile of Iturbide.
The fllowing articles were read in the Mexican
Corgress, by request of his Imperial Majesty
Doi Augustin Iturbide, at an extraordinary
meeting, held in Mexico on the 19th March.
1. Congress having recognized and approved
the poceedings and acts of Casa Mata, the causes
of myretaining forces in the viciuity of the capi
tal, hat ceased to exist; and as my only view was
to stis&in and protect that body, the division
heretofore existing on my account, is therefore at
an end.
2. I accepted the crows with great reluctance,
and only acquiesced through a desire to serve my
country. ButFrom the moment I perceived that
to return it, wtuld serve as an excuse or pretext
for an iqlestina war, I determined to abdicate it.
I did not conclide upon this course before, be
cause there wa mot a body to represent the nation
generally recog lized ; and 1 considered that any
step taken by ne, unless there was, would have
been both usel ss and injurious to the country—
there now exis s one, aud I accordingly absolute
ly abdicate.
3. My prese ce in this country would always
he a pretext ftr disturbances; and projects of
which I have n iver thought, might be attributed
to me. In order, therefore, to avoid the most re
mote suspicion, 1 will leave this country and di
rect my steps to 1 foreign one.
4. Ten orlifleiv days will be sufficient to regu
late my domestic! affairs, and take the necessary
measures to condact my family and myself away.
5. I will only request of Congress to pay from
the national futids, those debts which 1 have con
tracted with some particular friends, which are
not of great consideration, although congress left
to my option to make use of such fuuds as 1
(li night proper; hut I could not appropriate funds

Incarcerated Printer.—Baptiste Irvine escaped
from prison at Cnrracna on the 25th tilt, by
breaking one of the bars, and letting himself
down bv a cord from Ihe window, two stories
high. A reward of ■2OO pieces of eight was offered
by the government, for his detection, and in less
than two hours the unfortunate man was found
secreted in the house of Mr. Merida, the agent of
Colombia. —Information was lodged against Mr. I,
by a Spainiard, or in less thau two hours more he
would have been safe: he was led to prison more
dead than alive.—l saw him, says a correspond

Animal Sympathy —On the day of the great
thaw, a spaniel was observed opposite to Thion
ville floating down the Moselle on a small piece
of ice. It is not known how the poor dog got in
to that situation; but he set up piteous cries.
Having passed one of the dogs belonging to the
decoys on (be left of the Moselle, that intrepid
animal dashed into the river, soon reached the
unfortunate spaniel, and seizing him by the neck
swam on shore with him amidst the acclamations
ot the spectators. [French paper.
