EXTUACT.
Jn the Canielina Sativa there are many valuable properties
hieh “ ill prove it to stand unrivaled. In the first place, a
fine oil is produced useful in the manufacture of woolen goods,
~i 90 ap, burning in lamps, and for a variety of other purposes.
In the second place, an oil cake of the most nutricious nature
fi.r feeding oxen, calves, sheep, &cc., &c. Thirdly, procuring
0 f green herbage for sheep. The planter could sell
t l ie cil j ie at Sid per ton, when linseed was selling at SSO. —
The cake has been fairly tried upon bullock's , sheep and
elites, who like it much. It possesses an aroma that belongs
Mthc plant, which makes it valuable for feeding animals and
keeping them healthy during the process of fattening. It is
a fine herbacious tonic combined with mucilage, gluten and
‘inn, when the Jlax seed is not. Flax seed cuke is liable to
mike cattlo sick in consequence of having too much inorganic
matter and not enough of the herbacious tonic to counteract
the bad effects of the impure parts that abound in oil cakes
generally.
V PATENT is taken out for tiif. united states.
The seed is and has boen grown by several farmers in dif
ferent parts of England who apply what they grow to their
own use, in feeding, as green food, their cattle, who have borne
testimony at different agricultural meetings of its merits,
which has boen published in the Markland Express, Farmers
Journal and other publications. The seed is and has been
grown by the Rev. D. Gwill. of Dekinglmrn, (Suffolk) well
known ns an agriculturist; Edward Parker, Esq,, Preston, who
have both, as well as others, published in the Farmers Journal
its facility of growth in any soil however barren its utility, Arc.
If is also grown by Sir Schuchburgh, Dowton, Wittshire, John
Whisler Esq. Magdulon, Norfolk, Arc., who have put in print
their opinions of it. The produce of this annually if com
pared with that of Rape and Flax seed leads to the following
conclusion : The Rape, which attains its perfection in the sec
ond year, produces about 30 bushels of seed per acre, but sel
dom succeeds well. Eight bushels of Rape seed gives 76 lbs.
of oil, therefore, one acre in two years produces 369 lbs. of
oil which makes for one year 180 lbs. of oil.
One acre of Flax seed (if a good crop) will produce 16 bush
els to the acre. Eight bushels of Flaxseed gives 112 lbs. of
oil, which produces 224 lbs. ot oil per acre.

WHEN DO I LOVE TO BE ALONE.

** When do I love to be alone 7”
When the soft twilight hour/
Comes with its witching power,
Bringing sad memories past and gone/
When all around is still/
£ave the low, whispering rill,
Oil! then I love to be alone.
When do I love to be alone 7
When sweet music floats
With its soft echoing notes,
Sweeter, far, in their dying monn-“
When evening's stars appear.
Shining so bright, so clear—
Oh i then 1 love to be alone.
When do I love to be alone 7
When some work of a master-hand,
Calleth up beings with magic Wand ;
And telleth of deeds, long past and gone.
When with them I hope, I fear,
When for them I shed the tear.
Oh! then I love to be alone.
When do I loVo to he alone 7
When o’er the lowly grave,
Where the young willows
Weeping for them that’s dead and gone.
When on the humble sod,
Kneeling, I pray to God,
Oh ! then I love to be alone.

America and the Americans, by the late Achille Murat , citi .
zen of the United States Syc.. <s*c. New York , William
11. Graham.
This work is written in an epistolary style and dedicated to
Count Thibeaudau a former companion in arms in Belgium.—
The style is pleasing and the remarks upon the institutions of
our country, and particularly of the south, are fur more just
and truthful than those of foreigners generally. Os ull the
Southern States he seems to have had a strong preference for
South Carolina and almost an antipathy to Georgia; the for
mer he eulogises on all occasions, while the latter he is con
tinually launching his shafts at. We are not competent to
judge of the truth or even of the sarcasm towards the latter,
as the time to which these remarks apply 1832,'was prior to
our residence in this State, and since that period she has un
dergone great changes.
The following paragraph is in point:
•* South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, and Louis
ian, constitute properly what are called the Southern States.
Their interest is purely 7 agricultural. Long and short cotton,
sugar, rice nnd Indian corn form their products ; necessarily
requiring negroes* and affording a sufficient profit to obviate
the necessity of employing their capital otherwise. The
goodness of the soil and the luxury of the climate are so fa
vorable to the cultivator, that he finds it of infinitely more ad
vantage to employ the negro in this occupation than in the
manufactories. Although the character of the people varies
much over such an extensive line of country 7 , a southernly
caste is observable. Frankness, generosity, hospitality nnd
the liberality of their opinions is proverbial, forming a perfect
contrast to the Yankee character ; by 7 no means to the advan
tage of the latter. In the midst of this group, South Carolina
lias distinguished herself by 7 a phalanx of talent unequaled in
the Union. In my travels I have found the society 7 ot Char
leston by far the best, both here as well as on the other side of
the Atlantic. There is nothing wanting either as regards
finish, or elegance of manners ; but what is of more value to
people, such as ourselves, who attach little importance to re
fined politeness, she abounds in real talents, and is as far above
pedantry as insignificance. In all questions of a common in
terest, this is the leading State. The policy of the others,
with the exception of Georgia, is not as yet sufficiently estab
lished to enable me to form an opinion thereon. As to Geor
gia, and it is with pain I state it, nothing equals its violence of
factions, except perhaps Kentucky 7 . In this latter, howevei,
the dispute is about principles, while in Georgia it is about,
men.”

method of treating it in a series of letters , by George S.
Hawthorn M. D. late senior physician to the Belfast gen
