they would lo;e all. He contended that
this road might be suspended for a year
withou? any material injury, except per
haps to a few individuals. And msiuht the
Ilarbor.bill, the Fortifiezition bill, atnd other
bills; nod lie said considering the state of
the Treasury, and the e:nbarrassed condi

to be suspended fhr lte present; and even
Ietlemtien who supportecd them might.with
greht propriety, vote for such a course un
der presenit circumstances. He warned gen
tlemen who were identified with the for
(ties of the present Admiirjistration to be
ware how they voted large appropriations.
Their opponents would in inany instances
eagerly go for heavy appropriation,i evn
if it left the Treasury perfectly destilitte;
and they would denounce you for yotir in
beclity, ind treat you %tih contempt for
the very embarrassments they had aided to
brimg upon you. Mr. P. said the true
strength of the Administrrttion at present
was t real refornt and retrenchint, and
their weakness was in heavy zisimrsements
and ant embarrassed Treasury. Thos%e nho
lookett (or ste ss in tlie present administra
tion ought to withhold appropriation:s this
year, at least except on those measures ah
solutely necessary. Let thei make no
calls fornew Treasury totes-britig the ex
pentitures within the income. Upon this
poiunt Mr. P, said he was glad to hear the
chairman of the Chetnittee of Ways and
means explaim that he (lid not intend to ask
for any niore Treaisury notes than wereau
thorized by the law of October last- that lie
only desired to'i'e-issue those which had
been reseived into the Treasury. For in

tinece*sary; I'n e conthigencyt la~
thle other 86,00,000 should be received in
the year, to re issue them, if there were no
other funds iti lhe Treasury.
Mlr. P. did not exactly tnderstandl the
bceolnl lill on that subject, but lie declared
he would not vote for any other Treasury
note bill; it was not needed, if this House
n ould only suspend some of the unnecessa

voted for the Treasurv note hill passed last
session, and did not like ever to vote for any
of them. lie had no l);rtietilar ob)jcctii)n to

Ile would tell gentlemen there was nothing

- are easy (if cultivation, anid which wottl
y .dd greatly to the health, variety anid econ
- omny of the table, if they wvere more eener
e ally initroduced into our gardens. Amoni
ni the great variety of edlible vegetables, thos
a w hich cnn be rendered available for w"into
e use, are of the first importance, as that clas
e is comnartati-vcl smallt and vegetahle
searee in the winter season. Many of
these are neglected, for wat of knowlevce
how to raise, poreserve and prepare them or
use. Celery i.' a plant as easily raised as
cabbage, and ns ensily preserved, and may
be used as an excellent sailad through the
w-ljole winter; yet how few are there who
raise it, or at all know its grmd qualities?
Some years ago, I becenme theoretically ne
(juninted with tile character and culture of
this plant; but such were the seeming dif
dertake its culture. Alore subsequently, I
made the attempt, and succeeded very well
im raising it, bul lost all mny labor by not
knowing how to preserve it. I adopted
Cmthers ptan of placing two boards in a
roo-like position on the top of a ridge; but
when I cattle to trke my plants they were
all rotten. This failore canu%ed me to aban
don raising that plant for several years; but
being fImid of the veSetable, I aunin nf
tempted its cultaire, and look the most sim
ple plan for its preservation, In'd -ucceeded
to mny entire satistnction. Since then. I
raise it every year, and have it onl the table
every day through the whole winter. I
will now proe:cl to give a detail of my
mode of raisimg it. I sonetic seed in' a
warm situation oi tile first of April-a few
seed will suilice, as I00 lilsts will make it
pletily for a common 1;,iimilv. In fie latter
part of June, or first lav of July, the plants
iust be set tilt; let the trench lie prepnred
as follows; for 100 plaits, dig a trench 50
fbt int legth, and tenl ine. s deep-lie
width of the spade is anlicient. In this
trench put itwo inches of well rotted ma
nure, or rich vegetable mold. into which
set the plaiitsu 1mibes apart, and imimedi
ately after setitiX, waier them. If tIII
plants are covered by hyiig boards length
wse over the treitch, for t wo of 1hree davs
and watered eacli day. it will treatly faeil
iate their srikingm root, etid insure their
growth. As lie plants grow, gradualIVlly fill
Iup the trenchti. atiid cnmi e tio earth ihem
up every two weeks lil 1i*il, takiig care not
tio cover the top bud. By tiulS earthing up
a ridge ol --ome two feet or 18 inches will
be raised at the emil of tle seaso nhout the
tune of securing cabbage, celery m ust also
be secuired. I always choose a titme when
the ground is wet, aod begin at one end of
the ridge, and clear away the earth, dig
them carefitily ip by the roots, with as
nuclh dirt ms will adhere to them, and pack
them.away in the cellar, placingthom in a
%V%%out any fmr:her attention ; aid i re at
all times handy for ise. If any admirers
of this plmit should be so unforttnate as
not to have a cellar. I presume if the
plam- should be taken pll) as diseribed. and
packed in the same inautier, they might be
successively preserved by coverimg with
dirt,-in the satne way that farmers cover
their potatoes or turnips.
A most valuable invention is said to have
Ieeti iade by a laborin- man in E.igland,
ol a steam engmie possessiing great power
and occtipymng a very imitied space. In
time description furtished by the Albany
Daily Advertiser, we think we find much to
recommend this ew engite,, particularly
in cases where slince is of great importance.
It is also said to be very cheap in construe
tion, while tile principle Onk which it acts is
peeliarly simople.

two portions. 'rite rotary action is beatiti
fully managed by meaas of a perfectly
sphirical stemn-light jioint, at the end of a
fixed inclined aria, towards which jitint the
upper and lower surlile of the interior part
of the cylinder are made to slope, after the

Rise in Lake E'rie.-lt is stated in the
Clevelamd (Onzette of Satutday, that the
waters of Luke lirie, at that point, tire at
least three andt a half feet higher t hate they
were thriee years ago, atmi tene atid a half feet
albove the level last year- A rise is also
said to be observable in the wvaters of the
U tpper Ltakes. hiere (says that paper) is a
probletm for mewn of science to solve, if they
can. Is thecro any thing in the popular
notion of a rise amnd fall-a tide-once in
seven years? Are there any authenticated
facts or observations indicating such a tide?
It strikes us that the phenomenon is a curious
one, and worth in'vestinatiog.
