I kriock my b against the rocks, as they awe not so b: as I am, and they cause me go stoop a makes my back ache." Another gives following dreadful description of what ii. have to undergo. -My employment carrying coal. Am frequently work from tour in the morning till six at nig and every other week I work night wo I then go dow n at two in the day a come up at rout or six in the morning. Two vears ago the pit closed in ul thirteen of us, and we were without fr and light two days; nearly one day v were up to our chins in water" O space will not permit U tn multiply su extracts; and we must therefore conte ourselves withstating generally that the is no variation in any part of the vrlumir ons evidence collected on this subject young girls bein; employed in coal min:. except that their labor is more severo, v. treatment more cruel, if possible, in east of Scotland than elsewhere. Nor are young. or even married men, much hetttr ofl thanm the girls. . ne Harris. aged 15. "heartily bated it. It was no woman's work, nor is it go for any body; but I am obliged to the work as father hipwks (hows) the coals below." Janet Dunchn, aged 17, "was a coal bearer at Henmuir pit. The carts she pusbed contained 3 rwt. of coals, and it "was very severe wark cpecially wh.:a tee haal to stay before the carts to prevent their coming down 0too fast; they frequently run too quick anid knock us down. Is able to sa thut the ht;rdest duy-light work is in finitely superior to the Iest of coal work. Margaret Drysdale. aged 15, -did not like the work, wit h-'r mother was dead, anid her father took ter down, and she had no choice. Iler employment is to draw carls, ind she had btrnte-s or drag ropels njike the horse,." One wore. Kathar' .....an . nt; nor can any one fort on adequato idea of it without in spccting the plates which represent it in the piarliamentar) report. Well may the report say, that "when the nature of this horrible labor is taken into consideration-it extreme severity its regular duration of from 12 to 14 hours daily-the damp, heated, and unwhole some atmosphere ofa coal mino, and the tender ago and sex of the workera-a pic ture is presented of deadly physical op pression ani systematic slavery, of which I couscientiously believe no one unacquain ted with such facts would credit the exis tence in the British dominions." Married women are chiefly employed in filling. riddling, and carrying, and the Igbor impo,ed upon them is excessive. The reason given by one wit ness (he-rselt' mar ried) why they undertake such work at all, is -that if the w'men did not work below, the children wouil. no't 6 ;own sooon." The same witness s.&! ttat she w-itght till a simne 14 nitIts n o --' :!',!ed her leg and loot that she eould .4a --ang; ated and that the oppression o- al bearing is such as to injure thet it after life, few exi~sting~ whose legs are not injtur-..or ehe their han.-ches, beflore they are 30.

Indian Pun.-One of the earliest settlers around Lake Champlain. was Col. Edward Ravmun. lie understood the character and disposition of the natives of the forest, and lived with them in much harnony; frequently employing Them to row him up and down the lake as lie had occasion. Oue stout fellow by the name of Bigbear, had his wigwam it no trent distance from the Colonel's dwelling, and was "(ten there. The Colonel, having occaion 1o vi~it some distant shore of the lake. employed Biig bear to row him in hii canoe.

The Colonel then took hold of the stick, keeping the serpeut down, while Bigbear tied up a little sack of powder, putting otne end of a slow match therein. lie then made it fast to the snake's tail and touched fire t) the match, gave onlers to "let tim go.*' at the same time pushed off from the Jbore; the snake bei'ng litleruted, crawled awny to his dett.

One of most successful and intelligent cittivators of the grape in this country is Mr. Longworth of Cincinnatti. He. how ever, has given upmostly, ifnot altogether. the attempt to cultivate the European' species. and has taken pains to procure some of the best varieties ofthe indigenous vine. There ara as Many dilerent kinds . of the native grape as of the European. - and our forests have been imperfecily ex ploreil for the finest. i the May nuher of the Iforticultu rat Magazine. just published by I. Pos, of thi city, is the following letter fromt Mr. Longworth.-Neo York Post. --I was surprised on reading a enema nic:tion in your Mmznzine, (Vol. VI. p. :11.) frorn an intellitet gentleman at Mnrett?,. Ohio, in which he speaks of the lqanella gralpe as the heet nativegrapecul tiveted by them, and that they'mnenco - n1ing i for the tabl-s as soon as itassumes a redt color. I should suppose he alluded fi t - lilanl Mnleira, did lie not speak of that grape in a subsequent pait orhis letter. I have ceased to cultivate-the Isabella "for near twenty years, deeming It,-interior, as a table and wine grape, to mast others. He gives it the preference over the Ca tairi-. as a table grape with us, It ripens badly, and is subject to rot, and in its best ,ste far inferior to the Catawba either for the table or for wine. I havehad bunches or the Catawba to weigh twenty four oun ces. ..I have a white variety of the Calawba. nuI another Catawba producing fruit a third larger than the Catawba of Adilum. I say the Catawba of Adlud fur Mlajor Ad lum was the first zo bring it into notice. "I have three varieties of native grapes, which I consider far superior to the Ca awba for the table. They have none of the hard pulp common to the Catawba, "'"sancadel, and the Isabella. will give five hundred dollars for a root of a native grape that, in quality of the fruit anti size of the bunch. shall surpass i. The other two are equally good for the tao. hie, perfectly hardy, greatgrower, but the hunches of the fruit are not so large. "I was surprised, when east. to find no good aive grapes. At mydiffierentvine yards. I have nbout sixty acres in grapes. itt not all in he::ring. Last seasnn. I had not hnlf a crop. with the exception of one vineyard. vhere the rrtuit was abundant anti fine. I made about two hundred bar rels or wine and some brandy. I am now - raising large ettainitics of vines from tho seedt of my best varieties of native grape, having cleared a piece of new land express ly for that purpose. &-The Bland grape is not a native. It was introduced into Virginia frm France. about fifty years since. by a French gentle man, as I w'ns informed by General Har rison. who knew the gensteman. and had seen the fruit on his table, more than forty years since. It is a good .ble grape, but subject to mildew, ani does not always ripen its wood or its fruit. "Yours. respectfully. N. .ONGWORTH. Cincinnati, Ohio, March, 1842." Astrs oN coTToi. We copy the following exutset from a letter received by the editor of thn Cultivator. fro S. W. Cole. Esq., or Wudesboro, North CaU oiinat. "ThisCt. (Anton.)
