AGRICULTUR A L. “Kwp tlic Cate Slnit.” An English firmer was one (lay at work in his fields, when he saw a par ty of huntsmen riding about his farm. Ho had one field that he was special ly anxious they should not ride over, as the crop was in a condition to bo badly injured by the tramp of horses. So he dispatched one of his workmt n to this held, telling him to shut the gate, and tlien keep watch over it, and on no account suffer it to be open ed. The boy went as he he was bid den ; but was scarcely at his post, bo fore the huntsmen came up, peremp torily ordering the gate to bo opened. This the boy declined to do, stating the orders he had recived, and his de termination not to disobey them.—• Threats and bribes were offered alike in vain—one after another came for ward as spokesmen, but all with the same result; the boy remained im moveable in his determination not to open the gate. After a while one of noble presence advanced, and said in commanding tones : “My boy, you do know me. I am the Duko of Wel lington-one not accustomed to bo disobeyed ; and I command you to open that gate, that I and my friends may pass through.” The boy lifted his cap and stood uncovered before the man whom ail England delighted to honor, then answered firmly: “I am euro the Duke of Wellington would not wish me to disobey orders. I must keep the gate shut, nor suffer any one to pass but with my master’s express permission.” Greatly pleased, the sturdy old war rior lifted his own hat and said : “I honor the man or boy, who can be neither bribed nor frightened into do ing wrong. With an army of such soldiers I could conquer the world.” And handing the boy a glittering sov ereign, the old Duke galloped away, while the boy ran off to his work, shouting at the top of his voice, “Hur rah, hurrah ! I’ve done what Napo leon couldn’t do—l’ve kept out the Duke of Wellington.” Use of Hie Roller. The uses of the field roller are so many more than is generally supposed, and so important, that a brief discus bion will not be out of placo. All good farmers have it; this is in its favor. It is cheapj any farmer can make it if necessary, But what does it subserve ? is the question put by many’. It subserves many uses, the simple roller does ; its otlice is to press aud smooth. To prepare the meadow for the mow ing machine is considered by many to bo its principal business which it is not, for many meadows are freed from stones, and many have never had them. Still the roller is found in ac tive use on such farms. One of the principal uses of the rol ler is to press the roots of the grass in to the soil, roots that would otherwise have suffered and some of them with ered. But press them down early in the spring and they secure moisture and nourishment. Grass entirely thrown out cannot bo saved ; but that which is only partly displaced may be benefitted. This has been tested for years on the old homestead farm.— Parts of fields that were rolled started earlier in the spring and yieldod bet- j ter; this invariably. How easy it is for farmers to tost this. Let them get out their roller as eoon as the ground will admit, when it will readily bear the horses, and yielding enough to bo leveled by the roller. Sometimes it is good to roll twice instead of once. Wo like the idea and prefer it. It does the work ! more effectually and permits of drier , rolling, for in no case must the ground be too moist, for it yields to the horses’, hoofs and dirties the roller. Another use of importance in the roller is the leveling of the plowed, land, particularly sod, as in the ease of coin, to get an even surface. It al-, bo prevents the escape of gasses thus secured. 801 l the way it was plowed. Sowed land is benefitted by the rol ler, especially wheat; this needs tho packing effects of the roller. It is al bo good on corn ground after the corn is planted ; potatoes the same ; it will prepare land for the cultivator and plow. Then there is some land that is lumpy; this needs the crushing and leveling effect of tho roller; roll early in the spring. Then the whole farm should be rolled ; it pays, though it seems not to. Careful attention will convince any one of this, and it is the only thing that will. No one has an excuse of the time spent, as it occurs when oth er work is not crowding. Try the rol ler ; test it thoroughly, and note intel-1 ligently its effect Try it for more than a year. Liquid Glue. —The French method making a strong gluo that may be us*d cold is as follows : Place 2 lbs. of best pale glue in a quart of soft wa ter ; let this digest by placing the ves sel in a larger one containing boiling wator; when the solution is complete, let it cool while gradually stirring in 7 ounces of nitric acid; bottle with tight stopping. This is very strong, and will not gelatinize. Cement for Mending China and Glass. —We have already given two or three receipts for mending broken china and glass, and now we give an other, furnished by a correspondent, which is the simplest and cheapest we have ever seen : Bub the edge of the fractured parts with carriage varnish (ordinary varnish will not do), then join them nearly together, and let stand two or three days. When thor oughly dried the fracture will hardly bo perceived, and will not bo effected by ordinary heat— Rock nicer Farmer. Corns in Horses' Foot. These are troublesome ailments to horses are very’ liable, and which in jure and ruin tlousands of horses.— They are wholly accidental, no horse having any peculiar tendency to them, but being always brought on by some improper pressure, usuully of the shoe or from getting between the shoe and the horny heel. A shoe too long worn is a very’ common cause, aud still more frequent one is the clubbing the heels ot the shoe ; neither is it neces sary to the production of corns that the 6hoe itself should press on the sole, but they are equally produced when the outer horn of the heels or of bars is the immediate offending part ren dered 60 by too luxuriant growth by unequal wear or by secondary pressure from the shoe, or by gravel working in. It is the fleshy sole itself that is bruised, from which a speck of extrav asated blood follows, and, if not im mediately relieved, it gathers or the part becomes defective, and, instead of forming healthy horn, it always after ward forms a spoengy substance of extremo sensibility, aud is liable to produce pain when exposed to press i ure. Cure. —Take off the shoe, nave i the sole pared, and apply (with a fcath ' er) spirits of salt to the seat of corn, and in shoeing be very careful to keep I the shoo off the part by putting on a : felt sole. Domestic Kecci|»cs. To Keep Quinces. —Let me tell the lady readers of the Farmer how to keep quinces. l’ut them in a stone jar, cover with cold water, changing ev ery week, aud they will keep a year. Cement fob I’ickle and Preserve Jabs. —To two ounces the best gum tragacanth, add six gills of cold wa ter, aud three graius of corrosive sub limate. Set in a warm place for two or three days, frequently stirring it to assist the solution. This will be found I a very useful paste for labels, or for I pasting paper over jars, holding pick les, preserves, fruits, etc., provided it does not come in contact with the con diment, to avoid which the jars should , be first covered with paper or bladder, i aud then with the pasted paper. S. B. S. Sweet Apple Pudding. —Take one pint of scalded milk, half a pint of In dian meal, a teaspoonful of salt, and six sweet apples, cut in small pieces, will afford an excellent rich jelly.— This is one of the most luxurious yet simple puddings made. Cold Cream. —Melt one ounce of the finest wax v. ith four ounces of oil of almonds, over a very slow fire, and add gradually a quarter of a pint of ! distilled rose water, stirring it until cold. Very good for chapped hands, ; sore lips, &c. Little Cakes. —To make with the whites of eggs. Two cups of sugar, one small cup of butter, one cup of milk, the whites of six egg3, three and a half cups of Hour, with two teaspoon ful ot soda, added the last thing ; fla vor with a little nutmeg and cinna mon. Graham Floub Muffins. —One pint of sour milk, a small teaspoonful of soda, one teaspoonful of 6iigar, Gra ham flour euongli to make a thick batter. Bake in rings, or drop the batter in spoonfuls on a square tin.— Ali tie salt should bo added to the ' batter before baking. | Cement fob Tops of Bottlen ob Jabs. —Take equal parts of brick dust and resin, pounded fine, and a lump of beeswax. Stow them together, and keep in an old tin, melting it when you W’ant to 6eal your jars. Water Cake. —One teacup of su gar , two eggs, half a cup of butter, one teacup of water, two cups of flour, two teaspoonfuls of cream tarter, one of soda; beat the butter and eggs to a cream ; then add the other ingredi ents ; stir well and bako quick ; flavor with nutmeg or lemou. To Take Stains out or "White Mar ble. — Take 1 ox-gall, 1 wine-glassful of soap less, one-half wine-glassful of turpentine; mix and make into a paste with pipe clay, l’ut on the paste over the stain and let it remain for several days. If the stain is not fully re moved a second application will gen erally prove sufficient. To Render Lard. —ln making lard, the best way is to take the “left” and all the fat portions, cut them with a sharp knife iuto small square bits, thou fill a big kettle with pork thus cut up, put in a pint or so of water, and as the fat rises to tho top dip it off iuto stone jars. If care is taken to keep everything very clean aud not scorch the cracklings, the lard will be as white as wax and nearly as hard. Chinf.se Cement oh Glue. This preparation is often sold as liquid glue, and is mado of one part of or ange shellac (broken small), digested in two parts of rectified spirit. It is strong and inoadorous, and should be of the consistency of molasses. Wood can be joined so effectually by this ce ment as to make it difficult to break in the same place. Household Weights and Measures. —Wheat flour, one pound is one quart. Indian meal, one pound two ounces in one quart. Butter, when soft, one pound is one quart. Loaf sugar, broken, one pound is one quart. White sugar, powdered, one pound one ounce is one quart. Best brown sugar, one pound two ounces is one quart. Eggs, average size, ten are one pound. Liquid measure.—Six teen tablespoonsiul are half a pint. Stick to One Thing. —Every young man after he has chosen his vocation, should 6tick to it Don’t leave it be cause hard blows aro to be struck, or disagreeable work performed. Those who have worked their way up to wealth and usefulness do not belong to tho shiftless and unstable class, but may be reckoned among such as took off their coats, rolled up their sleeves, and conquered their prejudices against labor, and manfully bore tho heat and burden of the day.

ALSO, A GENUINE PATTERN OF The GrtewoM THE UNDERSIG NED, having resumed the manufacture of the above Gin, *• pr pose to make it what it was before Lie war—“ The favorite of the Bouth.” Our work stands upon its merits, and we think this a sufficient guar antee. "We have secured the services of some cf the best mechanical talent in the Northern shops, in i ddition to somo of the best workmen from the shop of the late Samuel Griswold. Mr. Chas. Gardner, who served eight years apprenticeship under E Carver & Cos., at Eaet Bridgewater, Mass., and who tvas employed as Superintendent of the Double Wells shop, from the com mencement of the manufacture of the Moore Cotton Gin, until i’s suspension, is again at Lis post, and will give each Gin bis person al inspection bifure it leaves the shop. In calling the attention of planters to our Cotton Gins, we desire that they hould notice the improvements we offer, which are substantially as follows -A. PORTA BLE ROLL BOX, For obtaining any inclination of the Gin Rib or Grate, is used ; the object of which is to improve in the quantity ginned, lessen the quantity and improve the quality ot lint. Also, to giu damp or wot cotton ; to alter the picking or separating the lint from the seed—either to take more lint off, or less lint from the seed, us circumstances require. We use both the common Roll Box and a Swinging Front. The latter is arranged to let out all the seeds aud bulls in a moment, and is very easily managed. THE GIN BRUSH We meke, cannot be excelled by any hair brush used. The bristles are all drawn in by a cord, and the timber is all selected from the best lumbor, well seasoned • and every brush is made perfectly fire and rat proof. CYLINDER AND BRUSH BOXES, Are both oscillating and plain. Cenfurnish either, as may be ordered. We line them with the best babbit metal. GIN SAWS. We make nil the saws that we use from the best English Cast Steel, andet any size that may be desired. We employ, to superintend and manufacjtn our saws, one of the best saw-makers in the Soutn, aud our machinery for the manufacture of Gin Saws caonot be excelled. COTTON SEED CRUSHING MILE We are the only successful manufacturers of this important and useful in vention—the Cotton Gio, with the Cotton Seed Crushing Mill attached. I will hardly be necessary here to allude to the immense saving and economica use of crushed cotton seed as a manure. We received a gold medal as a pre mium, from tbe Fair of tbe Cotton Planter’s Convention, held in Macou, Ga., 1860, for the best Cotton Seed Crusher attached to the Gin Stand, to crush tbe seed as fast as it escapes from the Roll. We refer to some of the many certificates that w’e have od the subject. TRIAL OF GlNri. We keep constantly on hand seed cotton, and every Gin is tried before it leaves the shop —old cr new ones. REPAIRING OF OLD OUSTS. We have a complete assortment of the very best Cotton Gin Machinery in the country, and make repairing of old Gios a specialty. Planters will do well to send in their old Gius and have them made as good as new, at a much less cost than anew one can bo bought for.
