Your nurseries are the first to be atten dad to, in your preparation for a crop, by selectitig at the proper season a rih tole. rably moist piece of new ground, and-pre pare it by burning ii off very clean, and breaking it up. The seed is t-hen to be sown broad cast upon it, and when they *ire up. they are to be overlooked daily, to see that the cut-worm does not commit ravages aitog the young plants; and as fast as the plants arrive at a proper size, they are to ie transferred to the Tobacco. field, to make room for the smaller plants of the nursery. As casualties frequently arise tv destroy some of the nurseries, it is necessary to guard against a probability of not having a suffcienj number of plants, by making three or four nurseries, at an interval of one or two weeki each. Much attention sh..uld he observed to keep both our nurseries and flelds very clean, par ticularly of grass. and for tflat reason new lands are preferred for both. In Cuba they plant on.an even surface, and dis Iurb it as little as possible with the hoe, only picking out the grass or weeds which spring up. The plants, when transferred to the field. are to be planted in squares. at about rrom two to three feet apart. according to the strength of the land. The high land-, in Cuba are such as produce the quality of Tobacco. both as to strength and color, that suits the America market best, and such lands correspond nearest to our high hammocks. The greatest ene my to the plants, both ini the nursery and in the fields, (while small.) is the cut-worm which has to be looked after early every morning, and wherever they have plants, they are to be found and killed, either on ihe plant, or on the ground near it. When the plants gets to be larger, then the green Tobacco worm is to be constantly guar ded against, atd the suckers also continu ally broken off'as fast as they appear, and when tite tobacco isjudged to be of a suffi cient height, it is to be topped and allowed to mature for etting. The time of matu rity is ascertained by tle leaves changing gradually their color, beginning at the bottom leaves, from their deep green. growing color, to a yellowish green; hut if this is not sufficiently obvious, and you deem your Tobacco ripe, you may test it by crushing together the tip of any of the tpper leaves, which, if it snaps. is a sign of its being ripe, but on the contrary, if it does not snap, it is not fully matured. When ripe for the knife it is cut down near the ground, leaving two suckers. w*hich have been spared a week or two prior, ready to grow up and produce a se cond crop and also a third crop may he realized in the same manner. The To bacco is to be conveyed carefully in wide ilhmmgs of cowhide to the house, to be hung tip; a shed is preferred. with free space for ventilation beneath. and after tying the planti together, two to each string. and leaving space enough between them to in sert a wooden peg, you hang them up, by intruding them above each rafter up to the ridge of the house, being cameful not to hang them so near that they will touch or crowd each other in drying, or your To. bacco will mould. Also when the weath er is moist, you musL make small fires enough under it, to keel) out the mbisture, but enongh to heat your Tobacco. When the leaves are perfectly dry, the whole are to be taken down. and placed in a press for a few hours, the object of which is. if the Tobacco is too dry to strip off without breaking the leaves, that they may become soft and pliable, but great care must be taken that it does not heat, and it must be strictly examined, by inserting thte had to ascertain that it becomes not too not. The press is maude by put ting rails or poles croswise of each other, in form of a rack. anod placing cow-hides onder, over and around the Tobacco, and placitng upotn it something somewhat weighty. It is then to be stripped leaf by leaf from the stock, and being selected, the wrappers from the fillers, to be tied at the butts, and prepared for market. It is sometimes usual'- to pot it again in press after being stripped. From the Southern Cultivator. Ma. EDITvOR:-For sotme t wentty long years I have-been vexittg atnd treating tothmer earth tmost cruelly to matke the Spot boil."~ The want of science, the want of attentiun atnd attetndance, a pre ference for political rather thatn agricul tural reading :and last, bu t not least, that mistaken idea too commonl) entertained by many, that labor is tnot reputable-all combined, have rendered moe unwourthy the name of Farmner. But, if I have gone wrong for a long time, it is no reason that I knowv of, why I should always do so. I now want to undlerstand the why and tbe wherefore of my business. If [ can fnd out where it is, and wbat it is, I wish to begin at the beginning to learn if 1 can the farmers alphabet. if you would pub lish in the Southern Cultivator, the ana lysis of corn, of wheat, of rye, of outs, of cotton, also the analysis of a perfect soil, it seems to me something would be koo:n about the means necessary to itmprove land, and to make a good crop. Corn is indispensable to the welfare of my family. If I know how to supply the deficiencies of my soil, and to feed my corn with the (ood best adopted to its use, with the bles sings of heaven, I think a large crop would be as certain'as two and one jnake three. This principle will apply to all crops. A plaety of por, befy muttn. milk, 'mnter her husband received, him kindly and lov ingly. After staying with them awhile he went back to Vermont.

Mr. Hood in the iast number of his ma gazine-and a capital number it is-has some witty remarks on Miss Martineau's letters. lie concludes .them with an epis tIle from one of the inmates of the kitchen : " Dear Mary,-This cums hoping ynre well aid to advise you to lar Mismeris ing.

But if I could ~get the information asked. I think I shouli begin to find out the whereabouts of it. .The following description of a valuable improvemet, we copy from the R.deigh, C. Register : i" The notice, ih this paper, of a new Pfatent, for so altering the Stories of an or d.inary Grist Mill, as to grind up Corn, Cob and Shuck entire, while at the same time increased power is given in the grind itg of Meal..ought to attract the notice of every Miller and large Planter in the State. It. has been tried on the Mill of William Boylan, Esq in this vicinity, and the re sults are almost incredible to a person who has not witnessed them. A half buihel of Corn, with the Shuek on, was reduced in 50 seconds to a pow'der nearly resembling verv coarse Meal. This mill, an ordinary one, will grind 437 bushels of this feed in one day. -Before the improvemn'et was applied, it took the Mill 6 minutes to grind Mushel of Meal-now, it grinds the same quantity in less than two. Of one thing welare confident-the more this improve ment is examined, the mnore popular it will become. The right for this State, it will be-seen, is now in the hatids of Maj. William F. Collins, of this City, whose go --head-itiveness will soon make its ad vaItages known throughout t he old North." *,Tbacco Growing in Mississippi.-We A he-follding in the Vicksburg Whig, of the 7th inst : . For the information of our planting friends, we would state that a genrleman in Madison Parish. La., atiout eight nilet from this city, tried an experiment of rais ing tobacco on his farm last year ; the seed was from Ilavana, and the product was sold to Mr. )ays. a tobacconist in this city, for fifteen dollars per hundred, who says it will bring twentv-five dollars per hundred, in New Orleans. Hio opinion is, that nothing bt age.is wanting to make it equal to the best I-lavana, which sells ini New Orleans 'at $60 per hundred. He tmade it into segars, .and sold thett to a merchant of this city at the rate of $30 per thousand. The land produced at the rate of from 1000 to 1900 pounds per acre. The Black Pea.-Froi experiment we are fully satisfied it is the interest of every farmer to raise the black pen for his stork. Nothing is better for hogs cattle and hor ses, and they can he raised with corn. without mnuch labor, and the groutid will be materially benefited by the decay of the vines, and the excrements of stck while consuming the peas. We think the black pea preferable to others on acconut of the 'act that it is not so liable to rol as the crowder. or any other kind we have tried. Many farmers suppose, from their frequent failures, that the pea cannot be profitably raised with corn, but the mis take originates from the practice of plan ting the pea too late. If they are plantedl when the corn is six inches high and kept ilean, it is our opinion on most lands.th.e paea crop will he wvorthi as much as the corn.-Agriculturalists. Colored Colony.-Canada is likely to have a colored State itt that Territory It is said that there are 15000 runaw ay slaves to Her Majesty's donminions. All made their escape from diff'erent slave-htoldiog States; at diff'erent periods; some have resided there for about fifteen years, hut the majority for a shorter period. They are not compa~iCi.y located. but scattered over a territory a hundred miles in length by sixty in breadth. The soiuthtern point is about forty miles above Detroit, Michi gan on the eastern side of t he river. Compyassin.-Compasion) is an emo tion of which we ought never to be asha med. Graceful, pasrticularly in yotuth, is the tear of sympathy and the heart that melts at the tale of woe; we should not permit ease andt indulgence to con tract our affections and wrap us usi in a selfish en joyment. . But we should accustom our selves to think of the distresses of humnatn 'life, of the solit ary culttage, the dying parent and the weeping orphan. Nor ought we ever to sport with pain or distress in any of our amusements, or treat eventshe mean est insect with wanton und undeserved cruelty.-* Cruelty killed by Kindness.-A young woman in Vermont muarried a poor bal worthy man against her father's wish He drove them from his house, and closet his 'door and heart against them.

On one occasion, being sneeringly asked by the .master,. what lie proposed to become, since hewas so bad a scholar, and answeiing that lie would be a chemist, the whole school burst into a laugh of derision Not 'long ago Liebig saw his old ichool mastei, who feelingly lamented his own former blind neas. The only boy in- the same school who ever disputed with Liebig the station or ' hooby,' was oneWho never could learn his lesson by heart, but was continually composing music, and writing it down by stealth. in scbool. The same individual I Liebig lately found at Vienna, distinguish. I ed as a composer and conductor of the im. perial Opera house. I think his name is Reuling.
