ACiKIUUT/rtltG. From Green County, (Ala.) The Bene. —The many proprieties and uses of this plant are, perhaps, known to but few of our inhabitants. Asa plant, it is of much importance in medicine, and it is also used for the table; it should be more generally known and cultivated by evety person, if it is but for private consumption. From accounts, it appears to have been brought to the Western hemisphere hy ne groes from Guinea. It was cultivated by the French in St. Domingo, and is, at present, cultivated mail the West Indies—not large ly, because the staple productions are more lucrative. In the United States it is not Well known, and for that cause, as. it is of more immediate use at home, than as a commercial j commodity. The plant grows four or five feet high, the stem is fluted, its branches arc short and ex tend in every direction, and has long leaves with three prongs; the stalk bears some re semblance to that of hemp; the leaf of the Bene possesses proprieties of a very vicious and mucilaginous nature. It blooms in the last days of August or first of September.— 'l’he blossom is white, from which grow eight or twelve quadrangular pods, each con taining four rows of seeds, the number in a single pod sometimes amount to more than one hundred. Here it ripens in October. The medicinal properties of the plant are very numerous, as its efficacy has been fully approved of hv the cures that have been made through its qualities; an infusion of the green leaves into pure water has produced effectual cures of the dysentery, and many other diseases of the bevels, 'i’he leaves can be dried for winter and used in the same cases, but the quantities to be taken must be larger. They are very emollient and haven corrosive effect on the humors. I have seen many cures of large and dangerous wounds on cattle, by simply bathing or washing them with decoctions of the leaves, and then bind ing up the wound with some of the leaves. The seed is rich or Very oily, a bushel will yield from two to two and a half gallons of oil. The oil is much easier extracted from the seed, than that of flax seed, but it requir a press of the sapin kind*. A wooden press,, however, will be sufficient to press one and a half gallons from a bushel of seed. This oil is of many uses, it is good for ma ny diseases; and as for oil to bum, when cla rified, it is equal to summer sperm oil. It is also preferred by many who are accustomed to it, or it is thought.cqual to either olive or sweet oil, for the table. And some think that its qualities arc conducive to the regu lar functions of the stomach. A person laboring under severe rheumatic pains has sensibly relieved by light friction of this oil; it is also good for tumors, biles, pimples on the face, finally, For the cure of the grub-worm in horses,! there is no remedy so efficacious ns the fob [ lowing:—-Take a tumbler full of oil and as | i much whiskey, put them into a bottlo and ! I shake them well, and give it to the horse,] two doses will most assuredly cure. A. Thc Jfliscelfanist. Friends —Every thing that Cicero has said in his treatise de Amictia is very fine, and very good and very true, but he does not seem to have been altogether aware of the fulness of meaning in the word friends. A man invites a few friends to dine with him. They come, they cat, they drink, they talk, they exorcise, they depart. They ham praise and - blame for the cook, and they speak learnedly of the iVine, and in nine cases out of ten, somewhat seriously of the host. Foi* either lie has been too ostentatious in his lib erality, or too niggardly in his hospitality; and he seems almost required to ask pardon of those he has fed, for the manner in which in has ted them. Then the entertainer be comes in his turn the entertained and takes Ids turn also in the delights of culinary criti cism, and friendly censoriousness. These ar c friends by the table, cemented by the va rious combinations of fish, flesh and fowl, closely adheremg so long as that lasts which holds them together! but that failing, thev will an( * depart and separatei A man grows ;ich and rises in the world* forthwith he hears, or may hear, if be havo patience, to listen to them, sage lectures up on prudence, and many edifying dissettation* on discretion. And he receives many a hu miliating lesson, and observes many an alter* <‘d look, and he has a great deal of pity and icry little help,and he recommended in the most delicate manner imaginable not to spoil ♦he pleasure of his prosperous acquaintance by Ins unprosperous presence , and 1 while he fancies that he has not a friend in the world, he is given to understand that hist fiends are very sorry for him, ami his friends. as .11 Ins friends say, ought, to do something for him ; but unfortunately he has tired hi* friends all out. A man just beginning life marries a wo man whose family is not so good ns his own* I hereupon, father and mother, uncles and aunts, brothers and sisters, and cousins, first, second, third, and fourth, put themselves in* to unanimous sulkiness,4ns.ult flic young wo man and eschew the'young man, more espe cially il the newly married couple is in need of any assistance or countenance. And then,, when the persecuted family are suffering un d<r the pangs of poverty, and the inoi tifiea* tious of desertion and solitude, the world saith, with a most edifying gravity, “the young gentleman’s friends did not approve of the match.’*. A young man comes to his fortnre as soon as lie conics of age. He buys horses, and and runs races, and lays bets, and olsy? at cards, and looses, he gets into scrapes and tights duels, and he finds himself none the richer for his winnings, and much the poorer lor his losings; and it he cannot spend or lose his money fast enough himself, he has myriads ef friends, who will borrow it of him, and do their best to assist him in dispersing it. i Tien at last he smashes, or is done up, and then all the world with its long moral phiz, says. “What a pity it is that his friends led him into such extravagance!” At midnight there is a noise in the streets, ! "’omen ar ° shrieking and men are hallowing, | iirc Sollic calling for help; and there is a i weli-drcssed man swearing at a constable I wh ° attempts to hold him, and the well-dress ed man has obviously rolled in the dirt; his ! hat is as flat as a pancake, his eyes lire red a; herrings, and his tongue is like a weather cock jn the whirlwind, and he must be trus sed like a bulled rabbit before he can he managed; and all the account he can give for himself the next morning, is that he Tiatl been dining with a few friends* Lorenzo Dow. —Every body has heard ot .the celebrated Lorenzo Dow, who has travel, led about the country these forty years, bar* anguing the people and drawing multitudes after him wherever he goes. The following was related to us by a gentleman wild was present on the occasion, and assured us that lie never saw a congregation more quiet du. ring a sermon in his life* About two thousand persons were assem bled together in a large meetinghouse in a village not twenty miles from Boston. Oltl Lorenzo, wrapped up in a half worn green baize blanket, entered, and after much cl* bowing through the crowd succeeded in as cending the pulpit stairs, and alter taking a full survey of the multitude, addressed them as follows: “fellow sinners; I say here fellow sinners, I understand from your minister that yoft are in the habit of getting up and goin* out of the meeting house, and otherwise dis turbing the congregation, while he is preach ing, and ho wishes me to give you a lecture on the subject, and I shall now begin my ser mon by dividing you into three dilibrent class es, to wit: the good, the bad, and the tag-rag and bob-tail, and any one that leaves thi house during the pn sent services, him or her 1 i hall call bob tail. Lorenzo spoke over tw > hours, and not a soul—man, woman or child, dared to stir from fheir seats; and on wind ing up his discourse In' congratulated them because there was no bob-tails in hi s conga . gation. Suffice it to say that the minister who made the complaint nov< r had any difil. cully with bis congregation afterward?, Portfitwtth Stu.'c ller'iL'L NO. 43.
