Farmers' and Mecanics' Iustitute.-Un
der the above, or some si.tsilar name. it
is proposed tv organize an agricultural
and mechanical association, to be compo
sed of citizens of Georgia and South Car
olina. and make this cit , a common cen
tre, and the place for public meetings and
exhihitions. The advantages of such an
institutiou, if properly conducted. must he
obvious to every well informed person.
Our agriculture, horticulture, mechanical
arts, and domestic manufactures greatly
need. as they well deserve.- the aid of as
sociated effort and encouragement. Much
can he done to improve all rural and me
chanical operations in this section. thro'
the agency of an Institute. Its annual
shows will call together in Augusta from
eight to ten thousand people, who will
remain several days for the double pur
pose of selling at the Fair the various pro
ducts of their skill and industry, and of
buying stuh articles as interest or fancy
shall prompt them to'purcbase.
We can get up. a splendid exhibition of
domestic animals and farm implements,
and of home manufactures to gratify the
curiosity of busiress men. planters and
farmers; whilst crowds of ladies, and plea
sure seeking gentlemeni will be attracted
to: witness a magnificent displ y of flow

Like'ihe American institutie iu New York
and others that could ienames., the one
proposed could be nade- ,self sustain
ing, that is, it will requsire no bonus or pre
sent fram any one to.keep it up. . At the
sugges;ion-of the writer, the Association
which held its Fair recently at' the Stone
Mountain, took one hundred dollars extra
in one day; and had the arrangement been
properly made at the outset,- some three
or four hundred dollars would have been
collected by a charge. of only ten cents
each on the, gentlemen that visited the
exhibition This enabled the society to
give twice as much money in premiums
as its members contribute. It is by a long
list of premiums that an attractive show
is drawn out. Experience has uniformly
demonstrated the truth of the remark, that
Exhibitions truly worth seeing. never fails
in this land of plenty to draw a crowd.
Popular curiosity enables the American
Institute to keep open it* annual Fair two
werks, and collect some $20,000 at its
thronged'gates. The State Agricultural
Society of New York will draw forty thou
sand people to Buffalo. spend a week in
examining the ten thousand curiosities
there to be exhibited. The love at sight
seeing is as largely developed in the
breasts of Southern people as in thoae of
the North. A great deal of useful informa
tion is gained 'by the mutual instruction
of the assembled thousands. All are teach
e.ts, all are pupils in a degree.

FRUIT CUJLTURtE IN THlE 01110 VAL
LEY.
We cip the following from the last
Cincinnati Gazette.
"Since the organization atnd regular
weekly meetings of the Cmecinnati Horti
cultural Society, much has been done for
the improvement of the fruit product of
the Ohio Basin, and to enlist great-r at
aention to this neglected branch of hus
batndry, a great deal more is yet to be
done, however, and the fact otands out
distinctly, that it tay be done in full face
of the great commercial test. , will it pay?'
without fear of diisappointment, if proper
attention be given to it, and judicious lo
calities be chosen. We have the result of
-one example now before us--an expert
m-ent made in a small way, it is true, hut
one which, notwithstanding, promises oth
er than small benefits. We allude to a
piece of ground only live acres in extent,
which our friend. Joseph Clarke, of Brown
county, Ohio, has now in fruit. Otn this
miniature orchard,Mr. C. has inow in cul
tivation 112- kinds of peaches. 75 of which
are in beating, some of the most vigorous
-of the trees having nut less then nine to
ten bushels on each. is. experiment is
a new one, and this season he has had an
aundant supply ripening in sulccession
since the 15th of July. O. this small
piece of ground. Air. C. has also 83 vari
eties of plums. 33 of which are in bearing,
115 varieties of pears, 112 of apples. 60
of cherries. 15 of nectarines,12 of appri,
cots, 4 of figs, 30 of grapes, S of strawber
rie', aid 8 t,f raspberries, including the
new large Falstaft' variety."
Mr. Clarke now realizes a comfortable
income from the products of his five acres
of ground. It is wonderful to see how ra
pidly the consumption of good fruit in
creases in this country; and yet there
are millions of people in the U'ited States
who would eladly eat something like a
a hushel of fine apples each per month,
the year round, provided they could he
bought at twenty or thirty cents. Fruit
culture is in its infancy; and it is only.
by degrees that an excessively carnivor
ous, swine eating nation, will abandon ld
habits, and learn. to subsist more on the
best products of the orchard, the vineyard
and the garden. The demand for these
will more than equal the supply if well
preserved.

1 THINK M1ORE AND ACT DIF
FERENTLY.
If Farmers would think more and act
diferrntly. imes would be better-mur
t urings against the distensatit,ns of Pro.
vidence more rare. In conversation with
a gentleman the other day, he remarked,
"'l suppose there are thousands of acres
ofcirn in the District, that will not yield
a bushel per acre-no mattor how much it
rains." Since then sir, while "solitary
and alone." I have ventured to think, and
now say, that there is no necessity for this
state of things continuing. if men would
only thtuk more and act diferently. "Ye.,.
says the eldcer brother." who is living at
Dady's old p1 re,' "lhero is another paper
fiSrer, it's an easy matter for men who
have nothing to do. to write. But how
can i do any better, suppose I do think
more and act diffe.ently.
An answer to the above interrogatory
may possibly be learned by any such in
quirer, should he make a vigorous effort to
improve, upon the plan given in the fol
lowing detai!s,-Prior.to the ~1st of .De
cember'26, 1 found that I was remiss in
many things; and that 'buying corn and
fodder to feed myliorse wvould amount to
the middle of the moth,T hbecan to think
more and to act differently. 1 thought by
keeping leaves. anrd such dirt as a rake
would gather with them, in the lot near
my stable, and as often as twice or three
times a week. having a few of them
thrown in; and -then as often as twice in a
month. to have them thrown out, and put
in a pen would be a proper nethod, by
which to collect -materials to reclaim a
small spot of "old mother earth." so as to
raise corn, or something with which con
might be purchased. Accordtngly by the
.st of April, I had three waggon loads of
excellent manure, one of which being ap
plied in the Cotton drill upon 1 4 of an
acre. gave me about 250 ponds of good
Cotton. The lands upon which this load
was used, was perhaps as any portion of
-"my Dady's old place." Being pleased,
with former attempts, I still continued to
think m,re and act difercntly,-Built a
small lot in May '47, in which. four milk
ows were kept at night. until some'ime
in September; the manure was lifted and
rut in a pen as often as t wice in a week,
generally done by one hand in fifteen or
twenty minutes before breakfast. 'his
pen stood untill some ti'ne in January.
when two hands, myself, with a waggo
nd three horses. speut an afternoon. in
battling dirt from some useless pomtt on
the bra.nchm; and some fro'm a pile which
had watshedl against an: old fence; six loade;
this dirt, and the contents of the abtove
pen were thrownm together into another
pen, which we built as we filled in -thns
mixed they lay until about the middle of
April '48. when they were found to lbe a
beautiful compost; which we battled out
and put itn the htil[- on the corn, and cover
ed with two furrows Notw sir while I
am writing, there ts corn standing above
this composition: yes sir. corn that would
make either of "DadIy's son18" think, act
snd feel differently; qoite dtffe.rent from
his thoughts, actions anid feeltr.gs when
looking over htis brothers on "Dady ott
place" whbich will not exceed a bushtel to
the aere. Yes sir, the corn of which I am
speakmng bids fair to average thirty bush
el per acre, and is growitng on lantd, some
of which is supposed to be decidedly
worse than any portion of "my Dad)y a
old place."
Ita conclusion. Mr. Editor, please say to
any one of this numerous family; sucth as
deest -pap~er farmers," and who regard
eforts to improve, as "ins*slle.rable inttova
tine,." amnd whto may he dreading the ap
proaching seasons, when the old trade of
holding the tasseL in their teeth, wohile they
save the blades, must again be resumed,
ta if they are yet incredulous, by call

themselves some of the advantages of

To Prevent the Smoking of a Lamp.
-Soak the wick in strong vihnegar, amnd
dry it well betfure you use it; it will then
burn sweet and pleasant, and give much

A CHEAP PAINT.
As this is the season of the year when
the good hue wife delights in furnishing
up ,he homestead, andi making it and all
its appendages look "almost as good as
new," we re-publish the following receipt
for making cheap paint. It is by Col.
Boyle, of Annapolis. a gentleman, who,
notwithstanding the increased claims upoo
his time in his legal profession, still de
votes a portion of it to rural occupations
and has, in times past, very acceptably
occupied our pages, much to the edifica
tion and deltght of our readers-American
Farmer.
To Make Paint--Having been so fre
quently applied to for the following re
ceipt, until it has become troublesome to
give copies of it. I request you to publish
it. JAS. BOYLE.
To Make Paint, without White Lead or
Oil.
Two quarts ski:tmed milk.
Two ounces fresh-slacked lime,
Five pounds whiting.
Put the lime into a stone ware vessel,
pour upou it a sufticient quantity of milk
to make a mixture reseribing cream, the
remtiuder of the milk is then to he added ;
and lastly, the whiting is then to he crum
bled and spread on the surface of the fluid,
in which it gralually sinks, At this peri
nd it must be well stirred in, or around
as you would other paint, and it is fit for
use. There may be added any coloring
matter that suits the taste.
It is to- be applied in the same manner
as other paint, and in a few hours it will
become perfectly dry. Another coat is
then added, and so on. until the work is
completed. This paint is of great tena
city and possesses a slitht elasticity, which
enables it to bear rubbiog .even with a
coarse woolen cloth, without buing in the
least degree injured, It has little or no
smell. even when vet, and when dry it is
perfectly inodor,tus It is not subject to be
blackened by 4ulphurous or animal vapors,
and is not injuriaus to health: all which
qualities give it a decided advantage over

tached to two wheels, having an axle
which revolves with the wheels.. This
axle is furnished with small trnehs made
oftin. that contain each a limited 'tantity
of grain. which they receive from a box
above in succeasion as the wheels turn.
The grain thus received is thrown regu
larly into spouts beneath, which deliver it
into trenches formed by iron trenchers
preceeding. Immediately, as the grain is
received itito the trench the earth falls into
it and covers it. The whole operation is
completed by clraggers, which collect the
earth removed entirely into the trenches,
and a roller follows to make the earth

says, "is tite Sabbath, which allows us a
precious interval wherein to pause. to

my own experience have convinced me
that there is a special blessing on the

The Principles of Ike State.-The -
Greenville Mountaineer is highly pleased
with the demonstration of the Democracy
at the Theatre on the 21st. It,says- "If
the principles n hich this State has declared
a qearter of a century are to i eoverthown
and trampled under the feet of Whig ru-.
lers, it is rather 'poor cnnsolution that it
shall be done by the instrumentality of
Gen. Ta;. lor. We rejoice that the Mer

Ionecherished principles, and will there

thae general opinioti of South Carolina."
