Good stone w ill uiaybc a little Letter on a firm, because it takes less room. But on all farms where stone is not abundant, the hedge row is tho Left and cheapest fence. Hedges are cofnmonjri Eu rope, and are impenetrable to man or boast. File rf : *c thorn is -said to make the best hedge. It grows quick in every variety of soil: the black thorn i. also much used. The hazel, willow, and alder have sometimes been used with t ucess; also the black thorn, the Lolly and barberry.

Mushrooms may l*j distinguished from the toad-stool by their bright flesh or pink color on the under fide, and by their pleasant smell. The jwi sonotia ones ore of a dingy white, above and beneath, and a sickly, nauseous smell. 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 * r, than out of the field or garden, or from Leaps ‘ IVotc—All the abc; re roots v, ill preserve V*? ter i:t sand than iu earth; but w hec' the former cannot be hud, the sandiest earth you can procure must not be dispensed w ith.’— N.

Moral. “ one immot :/, one corrupt! J thought. One v-orcl when dying, he would lotah to blot." 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 ciiaugcz tes habits, deux jots, cui mi f>h sept, thx fois, in one evening s entertain ment. Is it not surprising if he lias any clothes fit for a gentleman 1 “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.

It is mainly attributable to the"n fluer.ee of our Southern friends that we have been enabled to survive thus far, in this most trying situation; exposed to the combined influence, and capital of the whole trade, endeavoring to effect our ruin and expulsion from business. \Ve pledge 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. T. J. BARROW Ai Cos.

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. JOHN D.
