POTATOES.
Judge Lul l of Albany, who is a practical;
well as a acieutific cultivator, says it were I
better that the sun should never shine tnon I
potatoes—they should be housed with all the j
dirt that adheres to th in. It is even more 1
beneficial to add more dirt to potatoes in the •
bin or cask, to exclude external r:r as much |
U3 possible; their surface should be kept |
moist, and the atmosphere which surround;:
them as little above the freezing point as pos
sible. *
LEAVES Foil MANURE.
In many situations it will be an excel*
lent practice torako together all tbe leaves '•
tf Cue trees and mould which has been pro* '
duerd by their decay, which can he procured !
nta reasonable expense,and cast them into,
your barn yard, as a layer to absorb the
quid manure from vour cahle. I.ik so it!
would not bo amiss to place quantities ot'
them under cover, in situations where you.
can obtain them m winter to use as litter for
your stables, &c. They do not easily, but’
they serve as a sponge to imbibe and* retain j
tirine, and convey to the field much food for’
plants which otherwise might be lost.
WINTER APPLES.
* Gather winter apples by bawl in the mid
dle of fair days, and by putting them down
id sand tv< 11 dried, it is said you may keep
them until apples are again in season. Any
kind of sand will answer, hut it must be per
lectly dry. Brando’s Quarterly Journal in
forms that apples may be kept the year round
by being immersed in grain, which receives
r;o injury from the contact. If the Atneri-i
can apples were packed among grain they j
would arrive in Europe in much liner condi
tion.
SEED CORN.
Select your seed corn from the field, cu!-!
ling fine, fair, sound cars, from such stalks as ;
produced two or more cars, taking the best i
of the two. ,
FIELD BEAN'S.
Full your beans, and such as grow on land
which you intend to sow with wheal or rye,
tdiouid be removed to the borders of the field,
or on the field adjoining, in small heaps to
cure, lest vour sowing he too long delayed.
PRESERVATION UF ROOTS.
Previous to the commencement of severe
frosts you should take up with as little injury
ts possible, the roots of your turnips, carrots,
parsnips, beets,&c. and they may bepre
.veTved according to McMahon as follows.—
*in the surface of a very dry spot of ground,
in as well sheltered situation, lay a stratum of
and two inches thick, and on this a layer of
either sort, covering them with another layer
• f sand, (the dryer the better) and so contin
ue layer about of sand and rents till all are
I iid in, giving the whole on every side a roof
-1 'sc slope': then cover thisheap or ildge all
/er w ith about two inches of sand, over
which lay a food coat of drawn stra\v up and
end down, as if thatching a house, in order to
carry off wet, and prevent its entering the
mots; then dig a w ide trench round the heap
t-ui cover the straw witb the earth so dug up,
*o a depth sufficient to preserve the roots ef
fectually from frost. An opening may be
made on the south side of this heap, and
completely covered with bundles of straw, so
as to have access to the roots at ail times
when wanted either for sale or use.
£oaie }eople ley hey tr straw, between Ihc
layers and roots, and immediate!/ c the top
r fthem; this 1 do not npprovc of, as the
wtraw or Isay will become damp and mouldy,
und very often occasion tho roots to rot,
vhile the sand would preserve them sweet
nd sound.
AH these roots may preserve in like man
rer in a cellar; but in such a place they
subject to vegetate and become stringy earli
er in Spring. The only advantage of this
trethod is, tliat iu the cellar they may be had
when wanted more conveniently during win

ivroit ALrj’ v.
As in the arts, so in inorals, the best secu
rity against counterfeits is simplicity and
modesty in the design, and skill and industry
in the workmanship.
Men are prone to make a single perfection
the standard of excellence in morals, for the
same reason that they prefer their own pur
suit in science or the arts to the lirst rank of
respect. It flatters self-complacency because
they always choose a standard which best
suit themselves.
As we have sins that beset us most easily,
so we have besetting virtues. To subdue the
first is a higher grade of excellence than to
practice the last. The one teaches humility,
and requires watchfulness and moral cour
age. The other is easy, often begets pride
and sell-sufficiency, and indifference to all
: graces but that one with which the individual
j plumes himself.
i 1 o iHoist too vehemently or exclusively on
one virtue, however exalted, is os if a geni r
ul should prefer an army altogether of artille
ry. Light troops and cavalry will, under
some circumstances, do better than great
guns. A good army is composed of all in
due proportion.
He who is satisfied with having reached his
true standard in morals, is in danger of falling
by false security, us the soldier who guards a
single post so well tiiat he leaves the rest open
to assault.
To inveigh against a single vice, as the
tnothi rof all poverty and crime, the hive
which swarms in our poor-house’s and peni
tentiaries, (ends to make resistance to other
vices more foeidc. Take inebriety for an
example; yet there are sober rogues and so
ber- paupers; and covetousness, avarice, am
bition, lying, vanity, arrogance, gluttony,
sensuality, and all uncleanness are found not
unfreqtiently in those who pride themselves
on drinking nothing stronger than cold water.
Lite argument is, I am a sober man, and
therefore secure.
It sometimes may happen that a particular
virtue requires to he positively and directly
countenanced, or a particular prevailing vice
to he repressed by extraordinary means, such
as societies, associations, and so forth. Be
ware, however, lest like the heathen, we make
an idol of the former, or grant an aj othcosis
lo the latter.
In regard to these societies, there is need
of caution, lest \vc “o’erstep the modesty of
nature,” and alFcct that which is not consist
ent with the conscience and rights of others.
For modesty is the true garment of charity,
and of every viitue.
- A s regards mm acting collectively, there
is less danger of such excess. But ’as some
pray to ho forgiven the sins of their holy
things, and very properly, too, so v.c may
•leprecatc the pride; vanity, and uncharita-
Idencss, which are tosoften found in the con
duct of individuals who take the lead, like the
alloy in base coin, which may nevertheless
have a good outside, and ring well to the car.
Ari invincible passion for ostentation and
parade, an insatiable thirst for notoriety, a
perversion of good designs to the purpose of
self-aggrandizement and glorification, the
trading as it were upon reputation, like the
merchant, who haring little capital goes up.
on credit ; all these tend to repress tho exer
tions of sterling merit, aid at last to inspire
distrust and disgust. “Take heed, lest your
good bo evil spoken of,’’ saitli the scripture.
There arc some who, like the actor of all
! work, excite surprise at their versatility, but
that is all. The gallery may applaud, but
not the critic’s row 7 . i
I sec Monsieur Artignave, a grave French
actor, pr. -eminent alike in tragedy, comedy,
tragicomedy, and farce, promises the public

“Let not him that cateth not judge him
that cateth.” It is hard to reconcile the text!
to the conduct of men who presume to take
inquisition upon the moral and spiritual con
dition of their neighbours, pry into their
domestic privacy, and accordingly award
the promise or tiie penalties of omniscience.
Or with, this, “judge not that ya be not
| judged.”
The best and purest treatise on morals,
' worthy of I hi tv, is the sermon on the Mount.
! It pieces crimes* in one respect, on tiic same
footing in the eye of omnipotent Justice.—
“Whoever; therefore!, shall break one of these
commandments, shall be called the least in
the kingdom of heaven.” And the Scriptures
prefer no virtue hut charity, and that because
it contains ail the rest.

ourselves to our lriemls to give them every satis
faetiojiinou. power as regards the quality of our
goods, the excellence of our packers and the low
ness of our prices for.eash or city acceptances ;
and in return solicit from them a continuance of
their patronage, and particularly request those
who have influence with their friends to exert it
in our behalt, as we trust the cause is one they
are all interested in and much benefit will acme
to us from their friendly acts in this way. It has
been said, the Combination was broken up. As
it regards prices, this is true, and all, we think,
friends or foes will allow that we have effected this
change; but we do asurc our friends, that at no
period since we commenced our system of un
shackled prices were we in greater want of as
sistance than at the present moment. This com
bination of men are leaving no means untried for
effecting our ruin, that they* may revive the old
system ; our credit and character are assailed in
every shape, our importations waylaid and stop
ped in every instance where threats are sufficient
to intimidate the manufactures from supplying
us:—in fine, no vexation or trouble which the
malice ot men could devise has been neglected in
this struggle to subdue us. We once "more call
upon every friend of a free trade to come up to
our support, and pledge ourselves to give them no
cause to repent of their liberality.

RACES.
THE Oglethorpe Association for the im
provement of the Breed of Horses, are now
preparing a Turf about half a mile from Lexing
ton, which will shortly be completed, and have
determined on the first Tuesday in November
next, for the commencement of the Races. Ow
ing to some subscriptions being yet out, the Asso
ciation cannot determine the precise amount of
each day’s purse, but can venture to say, that on
Tuesday the first day’s race, a purse offrom three
to four hundred dollars will be run lor, three
mile beats; and on the next day a purse of from
two to three hundred dollars will be run ior, two
mile heats. Both of these races will be free for
all horses; and on Thursday the third day, a purse
will be run for, which will be worth between two
and three hundred dollars. This race will be
mile heats, best three in five, and' will be free for
horses under five years of age, owned by citizens
of the State, and members of the Association.—
Rules and Regulations as maybe agreed on by
the Association. Lovers of the Turf are invited
to attend, and aid us in our attempt to revive an
amusement not only laudable, but of vast im
provement to the breed of Horses. The usual
dissipations incident to Turfs, will be as much as
possible suppressed by the Association, and there
by making the amusement innocent as well as
profitable.

hering to the principles and usages of the Hqul

JA Iv.SON, to the Presidency. Its columnsa'
alike devoted to Foreign Intelligence, Monk
Literaturo, and the fine Arts. In Morals Ikh ,
ever, it docs not act upon the creed of Fanafo
or lligots, but on the contrary, inculcates this
principles of morality and religion only, wtai
are founded upon pence and good will to all ran
kind—the truit of which is tolerance and brotlei

sake.” All Bigots, Fanatics, Sunday Mail Ac
vocates, and Church and Ctate-men are oppose
on principle, and their hypocrisy and machini
