JOURNAL OF THE AMERICAN SILK SO- J CIETY, AND RURAL ECONOMIST.—At a Convention which met at Baltimore, on the llthof De cember last, composed of a great number of gentlemen from various parts of the Union, dietinguislied for their public services, patriotism, and practical intelligence, the following resolutions were unanimously adopted, after lull discussion, in thecourse of which a great mass of fac(s and valuable information was elicited. Resolved, That it is the deliberate opinion of this j Convention that Silk may be grown in all the United States, not only for domestic purposes, but as a valua ble article of commercial export; thereby giving an ac- I j! v ® employment to American labor, and retaining mil lions of dollars in our country, tnnt are annually sent out of it for the purchase of silken goods. Resolved, That a National Silk Journal ought to be established, under the auspices of the Executive Com mittee, and all the funds over and above the support of said paper ought to lie devoted to the advancement of the silk cause in the United States, j Under the lat er resolution, the subscriber has been solicited to assume the editorial superintendence of the Journal, to he published hy the Society ; and now, with not the least abatement for that fondness (not to say passion) tor rural life, and all its pursuits, which prompt ed him, eighteen years since, to issue the firsr number of the old American Farmer, he js hut too happy to sa lute, once more, his old friends and correspondents, promising to deserve new ones by .the most assiduous endeavors, (not incompatible with strict attention to his official duties,) to accelerate the growth and progress of what he is convinced is destined to become a great j branch of national industry, bringing into active exer-! etse much of the now unproductive laboring power of the country, giving comfort to the widow and the or phan, by offering them suitable and remunerating em ployment; and making, in the aggregate, a large addi tion to the wealth and prosperity of our belovea Union. Though Silk and every thing connected with its pro duction, and all improvements in machinery for its pre paration and manufacture, will ci nstitute the chief de sign and aim of the Journal, for the sake of agreeable and useful variety, a considerable portion of its pages will be dedicated to the justly popular and kindred stili jects of agriculture, horticulture, and rural and domes tic economy. Hence the adjunctive title “ Rural Eco nomist.” J. S. SKINNER. The Journal of the American Silk Society will be published monthly, in pamphlet form, eaeh number will contain thirty-two pages, printed on new type and hand some paper, with a printed colored cover All persons friendly to the objects of the Journal, w ill please collect at once, and transmit, the names and subscription money of those w ho may feel disposed to patronize it. Terms —Two dollars a year, or six copies for ten dollars, always to be paid before the work is sent. All subscriptions to begin w ith the first number of the year, and in no case wilt the work be sent to any subscriber longer than it shall have been paid for. All communications to be addressed, post paid, to Gideon B. Smith, Corresponding Secretary of the So ciety.

Jan. 1839.’ Prospectus of the CORSAIR, A GAZETTE OF LITERATURE, DRAMAT /V 1C NEWS and CRITICISM, FASHION and NOVELTY.—N. P. Willis and T. O. Porter propose to issue, weekly, in the city of New York, a paper of the above deaiguation and character. It is their design to present as amusinga periodical as can he itiade from the current wit, humor, and literature of the times, to collect the spirit not only of English, but of French and German belles letters -. to give dramatic criticisms with vigilant impartiality and care: in short, to picture the age in its literature and fashion, its eccentricities and amusements. As the practical law of copy right secures to them, free of expense, the labors of Bulwer and Boz, Scribe and Balzac, with the whole arm of foreign writers, they cannot at present, (consistently with pocket wisdom so. w ell understood by American publishers) offer anv thing for American prtiductions. Their critical department, however, will be always on the alert for native litera ture, and to the best of their ability they will keep a running gnage of the merits to compatriot authors. They see their way Very clearly without crowding upon the track of any weekly periodical, and abstain ing from more particular professions, they take leave to assure their friends, rhat if the harvest of event, wit. genius and poetry, fail not over the world, thev can hardly fail to furnish them with an agreeable paper. Terms.—Five dollars per annum, in advance. Ad dress the Editors, by mail. The CORSAIR will appenr early in the month of March next. New York, Jan. 1939.

HEIDT, ALDRICH & CO. March 16 21 PROSPECTUS OF the second volume of THE AMERICAN MU SEUM OF LITERATURE & THE ARTS, a monthly magazine, embellished with steel portiaits.— Cn the first ot January, 1839, was commenced the se cond volume of the American Museum of Literature and the- Arts. This magazine is a depository of pa pers in the various departments of Literature, Science, and the Arts, calculated alike to instruct, profit, and please the reader. As utility is the characteristic of the age, the Museum contains articles of solid interest-up on Science, Literature, History, Biography, and Mo rals. Reviews and literary criticisms, so important in this publishing age, occupy a prominent place in the work. It, also, contains short reviews of the entire works ol distinguished American authors, accompanied by portraits engraved on steel. The solidity of the work is relieved by lighter arti cles—such as graceful essays, interesting and amusing tales, criticisms upon the fine arts, legends, sketches of travel, literary and scientific intelligence, and poetry of a stqierior order. 'l’iie very favorable reception which the work has met from the press and the public, has justified the pro prietors in making liberal arrangements for contribu tions to the second volume ; and-they have according ly made large additions to their corps of regular con tributors. In the January number will be found ori ginal papers from the following popular writers : Rev. Dr. Beaslev, Rev. J. G. Morris, Rev. J. H. Clinch, David Hoffman, E«q., W. G. Simms, Charles West ’lffiompson, T. R. Holland, H. T. Tuckerman, E. A. Poe, Professor Fisher of the University of Ma ryland, Professor Foreman, W. B. Tappari, Mrs. Si gourney, Miss H. F. Gould, Mrs. Emma C. Embury. Besides these, many other writers of known ability have contributed to the work, and will continue to aid us. In the March number is the commencement of a se ries of “ Italian Sketches,” by a gentleman of taste atjd scholarship, who has been sojourning in that classic country. Besides these, the future numbers of the Mu seum will contain articles from distinguished Europe an writers—although we are far more anxious to re ceive assistance from, and encourage, native talent. Plates —Portraits, on steel, bv a distinguished artist, similar to that of Washington Irving, in the Septem ber number, and of J. F. Cooper, in the January num ber, will continue to embellish the work. JO* Terms— The American Museum is printed on good paper, with new type, and makes two volutins a year, or more than 500 pages each. Price $5 per an j num, payable in advance. Four copies will be sent one ! year for sls. We shall be happy to receive applies ' tiona, post paid, for travelling nnd local agencies, with : references enclosed. All commtmicauons must be post I t*uid, and directed to the editors. BROOKS St SNODGRASS. j Baltimore, Md. EX< H wt.i: ox TENNESSEE.

So 7 and Situation. —Sandy soils and high situations arc always 'o be selected, if possi ble. The soil >an scarcely be too sandy. In deed the finest trees the%writer ever saw 7 , grew in a soil'too sandy for any other crop. The next best is a light mould, and next to this, or dinary soil. The best situations are hill sides, and the northern sides particularly ; the next, thetop l ot hills, and third, any high table land from which water naturally drams o(T during winter. If th :se soils are capable of producing moderate crops of corn, thev are rich enough for the mulberry tree, and ought not to !>e manured. If the ground be too rich, and especially in level situations, the tree is kept growing too late in the full, and-does not mature its wood before the cold season arrives, and hence is incapable of withstanding severe frosts. It is to this grand error, of planting in rich grounds, that the idea that mot us multi cadlis will not stand the winter, is to be attri buted, at least in part, (close p'nnting being another cause.) Soils on which a good crop of corn, or potatoes' or other roots, grew last year, are abundantly rich for the mulberry.—r If the laud has been limed, all the better; and if not, a good dressing of *0 to 50 bushels to the acre will bo useful. Where the land is ve ry poor, or when it is determined to apply ma nure, oltl well rotted stable manure may be ap plied. Well rotted cow yard manure is bettc* than horse manure ; but black vegetable mould from the woods is best of all, and may be ap plied witbgreat lienefit. When manure is used? it should l>e spread broad cast and phrtighed hi —very little benefit will be derived from ‘ ma nuring in the hill.’ Preparation of the soil. —The ground ought to have l>eon well ploughed in the fall; hut it will do in the spring. Where the ground is ! not naturally very light and porous, it should be ploughed as deep ar, possible, that the roots ■ may readily penetrate deeply, and thus escape the efiects of summer droughts, liesidcs recei ving all the benefits of summer ralhs. This is a great advantage, and ought not to be omit ted. After the fust deep ploughing, if the soil ;be light, levelling and pulverizing it .by har ; rowing, is ull that is necessary. Heavy soils must l>e cross ploughed until they are well pre pared. After the ground'has been ploughed and harrowed, it may l>e hid oil" in rows by a small seed plough, for planting. The best time for planting the cuttings, is as soon as the ground can be got readv in the spring. They will riot grow enough to b<J-in jured by any frost that may occur; nor will any degree of frost injure the cuttings in the ground; Cuttings, Layers, <Jc. —There are four kinds of cuttings, viz’: long cuttings, (the whole branch,) short cuttings, (the branches or oth er wood, cut in pieces six to twelve inches long.) double cuttings, (witii two buds,) and singl. cuttings, (with one bud.) Long cut tings are laid lengthwise in the furrow, the butt end of the second bo.ng about one foot from j the top end of the first, and covered tihout two ' inches deep, witii a hoc. The objections to this mode are, that if all the buds grow, the trees w ill starid and cn mot make good trees ; if they do not all grow, there is a loss of all the buds that fail. Short cuttings are planted in the same way, and are subject! to the same objections, but in a less degree.— Both are considered by the writer a* affording no advantage over single cuttings, and as high ly objectionable, on account of the expense, the first requiring five to ten times as many buds to plant an acre, and the second three to six tiines as many as are required with sing'e cuttings. Besides all this, if any part of a long cutting becomes diseased, and rots, the whole length of it is apt to be affected and lost; whereas, had t it been cut into single or doable cuttings, n a- i ny of the buds might probably have been sa ved. Agattv, if one hud gets a start before the otliers, it is very apt to attract all the sap of the cutting, and thus prevent the others from growing; and if it do not do this, it will gen erally cause the others to be of a small size. The trees, also, raised from long cuttings, are necessarily clustered in small groups, and mea surably deprived es a free circulation of air, and the advantages of the sun’s rays—-all which i prevent the maturity of the wood, and a full development of the branches. The w riter does not consider the chance of a bud’s growing, euluinced in the least l>v its l»eiiig on a long branch. He believes, (and | his.belief is founded upon his experience, as well as upon reason,) that the whole embryo jof the future troe is contained in the bud and its latent roots, and that if properly rna'naged, no other part of the parent wood is necessary than just enough to furnish the fatal circula tion until the bud Oj ens its leaves and forms : roots, and this is only about one inch of the cutting. The writer has noticed repeatedly, tliat when along branch has been planted, good sized trees have grown with scarcely any roots oftlieirown; being left, like the rich tnan’s son, independent of self-exertion, they were not under the nece&sity of making any—deriving their radical supplies from roots formed on Other parts of the branch. Double cuttings are liable to the same objections, but in a still smaller, indeed in u very small degree, the on. 1 ly considerable ob'oet ion -being their (. up tiring ’ jtist double the lum.U r oftmikt » tlejt tl |bc fJnntel in Um e m tuner ~ long ,r/d si, material disadvantage in eith r. The writer 'prefers, however* planting them as he doe's sin. ,'ie cuttings. It is believed by the w riter, that i.ten thousand buds be planted, five thousand n double cuttings arid five thousand in single tunings, tliero will be fifty per cent, snore trees obtained, and those of a more uniform size, and of I letter form, from the single cuttings titan from.tlie double cuttings—mote especial ly if the ground be sandy. Let me here ob-' serve, that sand is an it,valuable ingredient it! the soil for striking all- kinds of cuttings,; and if a small quantity were put in the furrows be fore putting in ttie cuttings, (especially wltete the soil is not very Sandy,) the cuttings would strike rotrt much mote readily. Single cut tings tire planted by sticking-them dotfn ob liquely, the top leaning to the north and the burl on t!»e south side of the cutting, and co vering them witii a hoe about two inches deep —that is, about two inches of -earth being covered over the bud, and pressed firmly with the hoc or the foot. -Sometimes tltey are planted by merely laying them fiat in the fur tow, the bud up|>vrmOst,.cover with-two inch es of earth, and pressed firmly j and l am not prepared to say tliat the first method has any advantage over this ; —indeed l can see none. They are also planted by merely dropping them in the furrow, like dropping corn, with out reference to tlie situation of tlie bud, and they seem to do very well. When the bud happens to be on the under side of the cufting, however. the tree has to make its way around the side of the cutting, loses time, and does not make as handsome a tree. Layers, properly so called, are branches of the tree bent down and confined to the ground with a forked stick, and covered over with earth. With inorus multfeaulis this mode is entirely useless. But layers are also formed by laying dowu the whole tree, root and all, in die furro-.v, and tin’s is considered by some the most certain method of obtamg trees. 1 think layering, in all its forms, even more objectionable than long cut tings. Ttie trees never make good roots, they grow in clusters, and of course do not make fine trees as cuttings ; aud, besides, it is im possible that more than one fourth, if that tna nyfof the buds can ever grow. This will ap pe ir evident from the fact, that in those pia.- ce.s wltere layers and long cuttings are plant, ted, they consider that ten fold is a large al lowance for the multiplication of the tree. — Now it would be a very small tree that had not forty buds, and if so, those who make this al* low'ance, must calculate tliat only one bud in four will grow. The writer of this never yet failed to make three out of four buds grow by planting single cuttings. NO. 23. There is one other kind of cutting that must notJ>e overlooked—it may be called a Variety of the single cutting. It is the joint of the main stem of trees from which the branches have been cut off. If the branch was of any considerable sizri, say the size of a small quill, there will be two latent buds, one on each side |of the base of the branch, and when the tree is growing, as soon as the branch is cut off, these buds will generally each send forth a branch. So, when the tree is eitt up into cuttings, if ; these joints be planted, tltey will generally send j forth two shoots, and sometimes e\en four.— I theiefore, usually split these joints through : the mich le of the brise of the branch, in such a manner .as to leave half the stump of the branch on each’divisioa of .the joint. I always prefer ! these joints to cuttings taken from branches, .as they are equally certain to grow, and gen-, erally produce twe trees each. The preparation of cuttings is very simple. Long cuttings require none; short cuttings on. ly require that the branches or main stem of the stem be cut with a sharp knite into pieces six to twelve inches long. Double cuttings contain only two buds. The branch is to be cut with a sharp knife, half an inch below a. bud, holding the top end of the branch in the hand, anil cutting below the butl each time, ' thus leaving the smooth cut on the end below fjte bud. Single cuttings are divided in the same way, except that but one bud is left on each cutting. The cuttings should be planted ns soon as possible after being cut. It is a good plan to have a tub of water, and let the cuttings full iiito it as they are cut, and remain in it till taken out to put in the ground. They may lay in the water nil night to advantage, but not longer. They may thus be cut over night, and time saved hy it. Being wet yvlie t put in the ground, the earth adheres to them and pre vents their dying, and most probably facili tates their making roots. Some have sugges ted rolling them in plaister of paris when thus wet. I have never tried iir, but think it very likely to-he useful. . • The Distance they should be planted de pends upon the object in view, and the quanti ty of bind at disposal. If a permanent planta tion for making silk be the object, the rows should be six feet apart at least, nnd the plants three leet apart in the row. In this wav, 2,420 trees may be planted upon an acre. If the trees are intended to be transplanted, and the ground no object, three feet apart eaeh way will do, and will make fine trees. This will allow 7 4,840 to the acre. The usual distance is one foot apart in the ro.v, and the rows three feet apart, or 14,520 to the acre. It must be ohserved, that when the trees are planted too close together, they neither make as fine trees, nor mature their wood as well as well as when allowed a proper distance. Sun and a free circulation of air, are essential to the perfec tion of any vegetable. The foliage of the mul'. ticaulis is so large and so abundant, that, when the trees stand close together, it is impassible for the sun’s rays to penetrate to t.. e wopd, or the air to pass freely among them, and hence the wood is prevented from maturing. I have : seen large fields of them standing so closely i that not the smallest space of tlie ground could i l>e discerned without putting the brandies'a side ; and when l have been told that these trees were killed by the ensuing winter, I was by no means surprise;]—the wonder is, they were not killed by tlie sultry heats of summer .also. To insure the hardiness of the multi-, caulis, they, must he planted at least three feet ! apart each way. on high situations, northern exposutes, and in light or sandy soils, tint too rich. * The Cultivation of the nmtlicaults is simply that of keeping weeds, &e, from growing, trnd stirring tue earth nreasionallv w ith the hoe or t.Yuothr young sprouts ol iWenttiti-rs.
