Mr. Cliaptal contends,! that vcgc’abi -s receive li*tl»* or nothingfrom tiie »*arih save water. And to corroborate this opin ion, he relates, hat Van Ih-lmont planted a wil- j low, weighing SO lbs. in a certain quantify of; *ar li, which u wciylied ac uratf Iv an i jag in ; a lev, >md fho box cov* red wj h sheet lead, soi i to keep on 1 every particle of water, 'j'he Willow was wa'ered for three y* ars with dis:ill cd water, and when taken cut and weighed, at the * nd of this time, was found ;o be IGO llis. 3 oz- and the r.ar-h in the box was found, to liave lost only 3 oz. of i*s original w. ijht. It is a well known fact, that Cicuta liellebore, ft- ad’y nightshade, or any other poisonous plant, may be cultivated in the same rove, and contigu • 7 n ous to the most ha miles of esculent vegeabk-s; yei we may analyze the earth in which they prow as accurately ns we please, wi hout being able to find in this ear h any principle congenial to those plants in the ren o'cs* degree. From ali th : s it would 3*a-tn, that vegetables derive their principal food and nourishment from the auviocpherc, and derive from the earth by their roo‘s lit tie save water. I have thought it possible, that Plas’er of Paris might ac us an attractor of the carbonic acid gas or food ofj plan s, and by drawing this food in o the neigh borhood < f plan's, enabl'r the capillary vessels io. ahsorb unu as&mulate it to the j eculiar nuiiire oVi the plant. But here a great difficult}' occurs. While j Th-stcr of Paris has the most surprising effect I n lie interior of our com-.try, yet it has little or ; no effect near the seaboard, i am much puz- 1 7. led o account for this didlrunct*, and if any of, your corn spondt nts can * xpluin i: satisfac orily. i th y will confer « benefit on m»*, and possibly dn. the public, borne have contended that Piaster! was an absorbent, bur wi h this doctrine I can rot agree; for it' it was an absorbent, then the Idas er would take up ail the mois'ure and food attracted in a tin neighborhood of the plant, and thus increase the drought and starvation of, plan s, instead of promoting their growth, in. crease and Vegetation.

In the Ist No. cf the 21 Vol. of tie Gentcce| Farmer,, frit-nd David Thomas says, that the' sweet brier hedge which shelters the west side of his garden, is on the decline. Lei me sugges to him the experiment of cutting cut all the old I branches; or if they are too thick and. matted,i ev'du the ‘wliole tops of the hedge, close to th-» ground durai * this month, and when the earih is dry enough, to spade it up thoroughly on each side of the hedge.—The consequence he will find! to be, that a beau iful new growth of shoo s will spring ou‘ from the old s umps, which will be six' f e high next September, and in one year his' h -gc will be replenished wi li a new, clean, and. fragrant head, “the swee est shrub in all the world.” 1 know o r no age a ; which the sweet bra r f.e clincs, if properly nourished.

This fact lhaveob-i served in many instances. Two years ago, I wanted a hedge of swee’ brier. Thousands of them grow ou the old battle 1 grounds of Fort Erie oa the Canada shore.

This inconsis ency more apparent than among‘ - many of our respectable farmers.. 'i hey seem not to b * sufficien’ly aware that if, tilt-y sow poor wheat and plan’ poor corn, poor, | wheat and j oor corn they nuts- expect to har vest. So in all other productions of the farm, j 'Our moth- r earth is not so propitious as to re- ( Iturn us fif.y, sixty and an hundred fold, even of a be'ier quality than was entrusted to her care, i find indeed it would be an unjust expectation. , Borne years :igo, I took pains to select from; my wheat in the sheaf enough to sow about half, fin aero, of ihe looses', fullest and most perfect i heads 1 could find, I sowed it in the same field with my other j. wheat, which was very good, cultivated precise-j ily in the same manner, upon the same kind of i soil, and when harvest lime came I was surprised: to see the difference. L could be plainly distinguished from the sur rounding wheat at the distance of 30 or 40 rocs ‘.by iis height; it was much heavier, and the I heads were larger and better filled. • 1 I once Jei out a p ; ece of ground to a neighbor: ji to be plained with corn. Soon after he go: it! planted, 1 found out tha: lie had taken the corn I,from Uk crib “just as it conic,” without select-* j ing or choosing. j In answer to my tolling him that we should j | each of us have been dollars better off if he! ’..had planted goo*! seed corn, he said, “ poh ! do| you suppose it makes any dillbreuce what kind of. corn you j lant ?*’ But. harvest day told the story: ; and when he saw sixty bushels per acre upon my sub! of good sound corn, and found upon harvesting his that he had but. 40 bushels! 1 O pci* acre, and most of that “ pig corn” and “nob bings,” he was forced to acknowledge with sor crow the truth of my remark. laid. Veloclly oi Binb. ji The velocity with which a bird moves through j the air, is surprising, when we come to test it by i actual exp< rimrnt. Any one who has observed -1 a fox, hare, or Jeer in the chase, or other swift animal upon the full run, and noticed the ease; 'with which even a lazy crow Mill sail over their • heads, can form some idea ct the relative speed' between the- creatures of the earth and the fowls' ; of the air. Borne very recent experiments have been made, in the flight of Carrier Pigeons, that are quite I interesting', though not a fair test for the ability j 1 pf these birds. Several resp ectable merchants i! of Maestricht, a town in the Netherlands, laid wagers to a considerable amount that pigeons | taken hence to London and let loose, would re-: turn in six hours, the distance being more than' 2'* 0 miles, in a straight line, over Ramsgate and] I Us'end. According, in July last, 42 pigeons! wore carried to London in a steam boat, and there marked. It is the peculiar property of this bird that when conveyed from one place to ano. thcr, it will return in a direct fine, lutlie moiv I ning the pigeons were let off, and proceeded onj their voyage, though obstructed by heavy rain ; the wind, however, being favorable. In the . event, the principal wager for 10.000 guilders, was lost, though only by a few minutes, one ofi the pigeohs having reached Macstricht in Tx hours and a quarter. The minor wagers were • wen, the second pigeon having arrived in seven hours nd ten minutes, and the fourth in seven hours and a half. In f ur lays, more thru twen ty of the pigeons had reached their destination. The first pigeon must have travelled at the rate of forty-five miles an hour. This, however. Is by no means ’fie greatest velocity of birds. Major Cartwright, in his ofi .•* J » ~ 7 * 1 starvations upon the velocity of wild fowgives the result of his testing the flight of the Eider: Dm Is, in Labrador-. This he avronqdisked by L ing in n boat between two points, six nodes dis tant, watching the flash of a gun fired at the ducks at one point, and counting the time till they reached the other in a direct line. The re i suit cf a great many observations, ascertained the rate of their flight to be nim ty miles an hovr. Thtw therefore literally out-stripped the wind, ■ the velocity us which, in a strong breeze, is not I estimated over sixty miles an hour. The wild • ..Swan (a bird smaller than the tame swan) says t Hearue, notwithstanding its size, is among the swiftest of the feathered race. Before the wind in a brisk rale, they s Idom fiv at a mss rate V. ■' than one hundred mil* a an hour, but iroiug across the wind, or against it, ‘lie progress is slow. .When in their swiftest motion, it is necessary to aim ten or twelve Vet lucre their Hits, to bring | them down with a gun. Brent geese also fly with grout rapidity. Wh- n going before the' I wind and struck by the she, their momentum; will propel them from twenty to fifty yards, be yond the spot over which they were killed. A ucntleman in Durham. England, measured the -flight of a flock of w Id geese, in a direct line | from one object to another. f«-ur mi! s distant. i .-1 Ti -llliition ’»it - : 1-. a hoars !:;• - •! i a< t o\ r •; x.rue of POO miles. ! m.-iking t-.v* ary-lh. n.ii dan hour.

It is surprising with what! j speed a good Canadian he me v. ill go when draw ling a cabriolet over the ice, instances having , |i occurred of them travelling ninety miles in on* of these vehicles, in twelve hours; let vhen | ! this occurs, the roads must be very smooth and .jjhard. The shoes of their horses are never ji roughened, as in this corn ry, by turning up the; lends of them but by inser ing two or mure s eet j|screws, winch can be removed or r> irev.cd a J ! pleasure. The horses of Canada are very hardy 1 I animals; their best pace is a trot; they are ac ijeusemed to much bad usage and hard work, ! : and are the must willing creatures in the world, 1 1 for they never refuse the dravghn They are; brought from the country into (Quebec, in 'hej ccldes* weather, and ks landing in the open | dir, without covering, for hours fog-rehcr, while i their owners are transac ing their business cr drinking, and they seem not to be any the worse for it. In the winter, the Canadian horse, like i all other quadrupeds of that count ry, acquires n increased quantity of fur to protect him from, I the cold, and curry combs is never use h When 1 the horses have been heated by fast driving, in. i,a cola day, they appear to hav ■ a sor ci icicle i jj at every hair, and icicles two or three inches n r length are often suspended from their noses, j! Travelling on Lake Champlain is at all tim* s j dangerous t it is very common for sledge, 1 or- I sus, and men, to fall through die ice, where the I : water is some hundred feet deep; and there is "no warning of danger .ill the hors .sdrop in, puli ■;ing the sl.Jge afer them; luckily the we k .places are of no great extent; the traveller ex-' tricuies himself from the sledge cs scon as pos isi tie; and tie fads the ice strong enough to sup-*; i I port him, though it will not bear the weight of (The horses. The pulling of ibom cut is done in •a manner perfectly unique: the horses are, 'strangled td save their lives. —When the horses' lull through—for there are always two m these' isledges—their struggh s only tend to njure and; I sink them; but, os they have always round iheir : neck a rope with a running noose, the mon ent the ice breaks, the driver and passenger-gc out,! ! and, catching hold cf the rope, puli it with their force, which in a very few minutes s ranch s Tie'l * ‘ horse ; and no soon r does this happen than they || rise in the water, float on one side, and are drawn | i| out on strong ice, where the noose of the rope,' j being loosened, respiration returns, nd in a 'jshort time the horses are* on their fact, and os much alive as ever. This opera .ion has boon ■ II knOwn to be performed two or three .i*nes a day lon the same hors s. The Canadians tell you, I tj that horses which are often on the lake get so j! accustomed to being hanged, that they think | • nothing at all of it. But though the case is very ! ’ ■common, the attempt does not always succeed: ! for it sometimes happen, that both sledge and i horse go to the bottom, if they cannot be < xiri- : ;Scaled in time. Another remarkable fac r in re gard to the Canadian horses, is their fondness for fish. The fish thus ca*en, except in size ( resembles a cod, and are from four r o nine inch !es long; the English call th-. m < tommy cod. Tlie manner of catching them is by cutting holes in the ice, and by rutting down either ire's o: lines. Over this hole a temporary house is built, , large enough to contain half a dozen people, ! and a stove to keep them warm. They who' i cannot anbrJ deals to build a house, subs'hu e Targe pieces of ice, with which they forma de ! fence against ihe weather. Midnight is-the best || ■ time for fishing, and a strong light is placed near I | the hole, which attracts the at ten ion of the fish land brings them round it in iar.re quantifies.
