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. AFRIENDOF THE FA MILY.

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.” The true pathological nature of cholera and an infallible method of treating it in a series of letters , by George S. Hawthorn M. D. late senior physician to the Belfast gen eral hospital, Syc. New York, W. 11. Graham.
