From the Carolina Planter. \VINTER TRIEATMENT OF ST4CK.-C'ld weather is approacihiug. and we ought to look after our Stock. Are our Cattle fat and in fine condition, to live on their flesh until next grass? lia' not the wet sum mier kept them in the ordinary or rather low coudiiion for them to start on the pe rilous journey thro' a cold wittier? Have we shelters to protect their '-skin and bones" from the sleet and rain of a hard season? Have we provender to aid them in keeping their bodily machinery in health ful action until spring? These are ques- 1 tions which every fartier should ask him. self, and such as should induce him to look ahead a little "with bowels of compassion" for his lean kine. lie ought to reflect that a little care at a proper tine will save him from much unpleasant feeling at see ing the su'eings of those whom hie should protect, as 'vell as perhaps his pocket from a heavier draft titan is now necessary for hinm to comply with hmis duty. +-The mer ciful matn is merciful to his beast," and some considleraiiion isiteeded for our Cattle and Sheep andi Swine. WithI all the care and attention wvhich we are giving to the impo'-tation of breeds of Stock that are to be easily kept, we yet htave to feed our Stock. The improvemeurts of other coun trie' have not yet itarde kinown anty sort of unal itat lives on air atnd sunshine--we must find something solid (air them to eat. Thtey need grain air toots or grasses, anti and without one or the oilher they will ntot contintne in thtriv'iigconditionl-and sturely no farmer outght to wish for any thitng a bout his premises to be itn any but a thri yang state. Inattention and nezlect if our Stock in lime oif need w ill deprive us oif mainy vaoluna bde considerations, while a little exer:ion on our part wtill repay us with profit and pleasureale feelings. Yountg Stuck should especially have our watchful care-keep themt ini growving con dition through1 their lirst and accond win ters, atnd they will amply repay us when they ate older. The secret of attainuing size ini Cattle conisits in keeping them wvell, from their hirth. Let any one who has Durham Calves notice the rapid growth while they aire suelitngs, compjared with the falling off when they aire weanied. andl he can easily untderstand tl.e necessity faor food uf a proper quality foir their support. Durhamas are the fastest groiwers of atll Cattle, where they get an abunidatce, but give thenm the ordinary country treatmeit, and they will show moicre bone than any oitier Stock on our plantations. Our sheep atnd [logs need less eare, but rye past tires are needled for ewes atnd latmbls, and sows with younii pigs shoutld have clean anal well littered styes, with protec tion from cohal rains, or they will soon dle teriorte.

It hadl two stacks of chimneys, andl with the wings measured 101 lfeet. Two families remainedl ini the haitse anid pur stied their domestic afluirs as usual. So safe anal quietly dial Mr. Bunker per form his woirk. that the femtales belonging to the house, sat at the chamber winidow sewing, a.very day, as untconicertied during the removal, as thotughi nothing of the hind was in operationi. Silk in Teras.-A correspondent or a New Orleans paper mentions, that multi caulis trees enough have been imported in Galveston to stock lthe whole country. Some were sold-some were given away -and some died away. Every thing which tends to discompose or agitate the mind. whether it he execs sive sorrow, rnae or fear-. envy or revenge, love or despir-in short, whatever tets violently on our mental faculties, tends to injure the health. There is a moral dignity in minding one's own business, to w hich few attain. Solomon says that he who meddles with litinmess belonging not to him, is like him who taketh a dog by the oars. Whereas he who purun-s a contrary course, is like hin who 'its down to peas and mutton, with no one to make him af'raid. Receipts for Subscription.

ALEXANDER~ MARKS. Columbia. Nov. 10, 1840.e 42 A NFW PoTATo,-The following sin gular origin of which is apparently a new species of potato. we take from the Maine Cultivator. The origin ofthe potato now used is losi in mystery, altbhough the pop ular tradition hat, long been t hat it sprung from an excresence parts on a plant in South America. Does not the following seem to corroborate this notion. "-Year before last, Mr. John Smiley, a farmer in the northern part of Augusta, nioticed upon some of the stalks of the gil liflower, which the female memtsers of his family had cultivated in a flower pot. some protuberance, or excrescences like warts about the size of peas. They appeared prefectly formed and living sub stances, resembling the seeds that project from the stalk of that hulbous flower known as the tiger lily. Every body is acquaiuted with the gilliflower, as a very conimon aunnal plant resembling the pink in size and flower. Curiosity led him to preserve these excrescences-they were not the natural seed--ant plant them the following spring. One (if his neighbors also took a portion of them and did the sante. Two or three came tip arid at tained maturity. The product was over half a peck ofgood sized and very hanid some potaitoes! These were preserved and planted the last spring. They grew vigorou-ly, and the result. was about three buhels of a new Stort of real potaoes. The potato is of oblong from, stooth face, mostly white, :nixed nceasioiia!!y with purple. Mr. Iliwchaings, of the Aiiusta Hoiise, has cooked some of them and pronounces them superior. They may he a variety nsorth ctiltivating. But the mvs teiy in our mind is. that they should have been the product of the gilliflower. Was that the way potatoes first came?"
