A peck of seed is the quantity usually estimated as being sufficient to plant an acre--five or six kernels should be dropt in each hill. PREPARHATION OF THE SEED.-Put a pint of tar into a tub, over this pour two or three gallons of boiling water, stir until the tar is dissolved and incorporated with the water, then put in a bushel of corn, and continue to stir until all the grains are coated. To make the grains separate ensity, they should then have equal quan tities of plaster and ashes strewn over them, and the mass stirred until the grains of corn are covered with the mixture of plaster and ashes-they may then be planted. No more prepared corn must ie taken out at a time than can be planted through each day. It may remain several days after preparation, if excluded from the air, without injury, but does not bear exposure so well. There is another method of preparing seed corn, which is said not only to pro tect it from birds and insects, but to pro mise its early growth. It is this, dissolve two lbs. of copperas in as much warm water as will cover a bushel of corn, and let it soak 24 hours; then drain off the liquid, stir in half a gallon of soft soap, so as to coat the grains of corn; this done, add as much plaster as will separate the grains and render them fit for plant ing. We have prepared seed corn with - the decoction of copperas and dried with praster, and wvas pleased with the result, and have no doubt that the addition of soft soap, as recommended will prove, on trial, to be an improvemnent. Weak solutions of saltpetre, and Glau ber salts, are- spoken highly of as soaks for trhe preparation of seed corn the for mner we have used and thought wvell of it, the latter is highly commended by others. DISTANCE OF THE Rtows.-This must be regulated by the hight of the stalks some kinds bear closer planting tihan other-for a general crop, upon a large scale, 4 feet each way, will be found an advantageous distance, as it gives ample room to work the crop, and sufficient stalks to produce a large number of ears. In very strong soils, where plenty of ma nure is applied, force abundant, and great products desired, the width of rowvs may be reduced to 3 feet, and the corn drilled at a foot apart; but as drilling requires a great deaE of hand-hoeing, wvhich is ex pensive, it cannot be recommended for any but small premium lots, as cost of labor woul eat up the profit of a crop, if carried out on an extensive scale.-Ex. 1Uanuring Lands. The following is from an able wvriter in the- Southern Cultivator, who signs his namne "Jethro," (vol. 8, page 35.) Dr. Philips considers him one of the ablest 'writers of the day. It is for making corn post with cotton seed. The whole arti cle is- well worth reading : " Compost as follows: a layer of soil from the woods or lots, six inches upon the ground, then a layer of cotton seed, six inches, and so en alternately ; dust or cover the layer of mouul with half an inch or less of unleached ashes, then the seed, and so On alternately.. Leached ash es will answer, but a greater quantity is required. The ashes neutralises the-acidi ty of the mud or vegetable matter. Af ter the compost heap is made, cover over 'with earth, and let it remain until planting time; then slice the heap from top to bot tom, mixing all together. (All compost hleaps should be cut down in the same wvay.) He then directs it to be hauled immediately and dropped in the hill or scattered in tile drill, and covered as soon as possible to present the escape of vola tile atoms. " Nothing, he says, in all the stor'e house of nature can surpass this compost for all agricultural purposes-it stimulates' germination and strengthens the growth of plants-to the husbandman, it is infin itely superior to all the guanos of new-1 fingled manures that ever taxed his credu lity-estimate the value of your cotton seed as one to four of the corn crop, &c. Treasure your seed as so many atoms of gold." OLD TAN BARK.--If wood ashes can be cheaply obtained, the best way to con vert tan bark into manure, is to mix it, in layers-say, a bushel of ashes, unleach ed, to tenm of tarn-the heap to be made up ill spring, worked over in midsummer and used the next season.-Albany Cul. SUPPLY OF THE BIBLE.-The Laouis ville Biblo Society is nowv engaged in supplyinig every family within the city limnita. willing to receive it, with a copy of the Word of God. On planting for Posterity. We often hear people who set out trees, declare that they are planting for posterity, and cannot expect to reap the fruit of their own labor; but posterity will not be under any great obligation to them for setting trees as many do. It ought to be universally known, that apple trees will set, in land which is rich enough to produce good corn, and cultivated in a proper manner, will yield enough in the fourth or fifth year to pay the interest of the first year's out-lay. One acre of trees well set will supply any common family with an abundance of fruit by the fourth or fifth year. And it is our own folly to suffer posterity to be the only generation which will reap the fruit of our labors. SUNBURNT FRIT TREEs.-Trees are often injured in the body by the scorching rays of the summer sun. Our prevalent winds are westerly or south westerly at the season of the year when trees enlarge their dimensions and they tend to expose the bodies of trees to the sun. rhis ef. feet may be guarded against by inclining the tree to the south west at the time of setting; and in trimming, care should be taken not to expose the naked body of the tree too much to the sun. A part of the office of the foliage is to protect the tree, and excessive trimming should always be avoided. A slight inclination of the tree in a southerly direction will be sufficient to guard the body, and care at least should be taken that it shall never lean to the north. The rlower-Garden Calendar FOR MARCH. On the first of this montif the fire of the altar of Vesta at Rome was renewed by the sun's rays reflected from a concave of steel. The month was under the aus pices of Minerva. From Numa until the first Punic war, public offices were enter ed upon on March the first. From that period they were commenced on the first of January. March was reckoned the first month, in France, until 1564, when the commencement of the year was changed to January by Charles the IXth. In Scotland, it was the first, until 1599; and in England partially until 1'52. In Saxon, March was called Rethe or Rough Monath, and Lenet or Length Mo. nath, from, the lengthening of the days. Thence the name of Lent. In laying out the ground for the Flow. er-garden, considerable experience is re quired. The plan ought to produce the double effect, of an ornament to the house, and an object of intrinsic beauty. It should be placed where the windows have a southern aspect. The beds or rows of flowers should run parallel to the windows, as by this arrangement the mass of colour is most undivided. By placing them endways to the !indows, the divi ding paths necessarily break up the mass. The sustained glow of the borders, the rich variety which may be introduced, without impairing the harmony of the tints, and the continuance -of these tints by successions of plants, are all objects of no slight elegance and interest, as they demand no slight dexterity and invention. An ingenious mode of varying the expo sure of the flowers may be found in ex cavating the soil to any moderate depth, so as to form a valley, on whose sides plants requiring different aspects and dif ferent degrees of shelter might flourish together. This could of course be tried only wvhere the ground was of considera ble extent, as the attempt to crowd orna ments is utterly adverse to taste, and hills and dales of a few feet height or depth are burlesque. But even in thc ordinary limits of the Flower-garden, a graceful diversity may be produced by rises and descents in the ground; the forms of the flowers are thus more relieved, and their colors capable of a more complete and natural harmony. Trho most favorable aspects are the south and south-east. The nipping winds that come from the eastern quarter are often fata-l to the more tender plants. But the common precautions of mats, frames, &c. will preserv-e them until the period of their vigor; variety of aspect implying not merely variety, but continuance of blossom. The fences should be invisible, and of wire, concealed under runners, or creeping shrubs, which would thus an swer the double purpose of concealment and bloom. Beds of choice Tulips, Hyacinths, &c. should nowv be peculiarly screened from the sudden and blighting severity of the windl. Plants in pots, should be carefully wa tered if the weather should be dry. Fibrous rooted Perennials should be taken up and divided early in the month, but put into the ground towvards its close. The hardier flowers that have been housed, should now be exposed from time to time, for the purpose of inuring them to the air. r'rowers. By THE .TUNIoR EDITOR. From our earliest boyhood, we have ever been a passionate admirer of flow ers. In many a lonely walk-in many a wild mountain ramble, they have been our loved companions; and as each revolving season brings back the beautiful beings to gladden our earth-how many cherished associations of the past- how many bright remeniscences or sad recollections of other days are awvakened at their coming. The cold dust of a distant elime now rests upon a mother's bos'om, where our young head has oft reclined so swor thy, yet her beautiful lessons of piety conme to us in melting accents, as the bright flow ers she taught us to cultivate and to love, bloom along life's wearied pathway. The grave has closed over maniy that we loved best, yet as we see some sweet flower, springing from inanimate dust, after slumbering in earth's cold embrace, our heart is filled wvith trustfulness, that they too will bloom forever in " That flowery land whose green turf hides no grave." But we are indulging in a plaintive strain. We wish simply to express our love for flowers, and also our earnest de ire to see a tast for their cultivation become more general. A small portion or your time and means, gentle reader, cannot be better appropriated than in this beautiful occupation. The utilitrarian will inquire, " How can it profit me I" We answer, not in cotton, not in negroes or mules, but in a thou sand other ways. If you have not an eye or a heart for the beauties of Nature, admit a few of those bright creatures into your garden, your porch and your sitting room, spend an hour each day in water ing and dressing them, and our word for it, you will soon see more that is beauti. ful and lovely in the world, than you ever dreamed of before. The stars will look brighter, the sky clearer, the face of every merry child will look prettier, and your eyes and ears will be delighted with ten thousand sights and sounds before un heeded. There is something in the culti vation of flowers, refining and elevating to the human heart, and no man can be altogether bad who devotes a portion of his time to the wants of those lovely "stars of earth." To ourfair readers, we need not offer a word by way of inducement. If their husbands and brothers would but furnish them the means, and aid and encourage them in the undertaking, we should soon have fewer flowerless and cheerless homes; and instead of a taste for ribbons, trinkets and gewgaws, we should have a higher taste .and more ennobling pursuits. We were led into these reflections by. a visit, this morning, to the splendid Green. house of Charles Collins, Esq. of Macon. This gentleman, within the last two years, has gathered around him the largest pri vate collection of rare exotics with which we are acquainted in the South. How much of his urbanity of manners, and noble generosity in aiding others in his favorite pastime, is attributable to the re fining and humanizing influence of his superb, Japonicas, Cacti, Justicias, and the whole array of blooming beauty in his conservatory, we know not, but we do know, that the cultivation of a taste for the beautiful in Nature ever begets a liberality of sentiment and a generosity of heart, not often met with in ordinary pursuits.-Masonic Journal. umttgement. scene in a Justice Rooms. The Times vouches for the following story: "Pat Malone, you are fined five dollars for an assult and battery on Mike Sweeny I've the money in me poket, and I!l pay the fine if your honor will give me the resate." " We give no receipts here. We just take the money. You will not be called upon a second time for your fine." " But, your honor, PIl not be wanting to pay the same without I get a resate. " What do you want to do with it1'" "If your honor .will write one and, give it to me, Il tell you," " Well, there, is your receipt. Nor what do you wvant to do with it?" "I'll tell your honor. You see one ofl these days I'll be after dying, and when I get to the gate of Heaven I'll rap and St Peter will say, " Who's thereI" and P'l say ,It's me, Pat Malone;".jd he''ll say" "What do you want! and P'lsay, "I want to come in," then he'll say, "Did you behave yourself like a decent boy in the other wvorld and pay all you little fines, and such things? and I'll say, "Yes, your holine~ss, I paid all of them." nnd then he'll want to see the resates, and I'll put my hand into my pocket and take out my resate and give it to him? and I'll not hare to go plodding all over Hell to fnd your honor to get one. THE YANKEE AND THE . AwYER.-A native of the United States (says the Mon treal Herald) some time ago having em ployed a lawvyer in this city to do some business for him, was leaving his office without offering him a fee, when the law yer observed. " My good sir, you should give me a fee; you should not act towards your lawyer as you do towards your horse you should give him a feeding, if you wish him to perform his journey." " Well, squire," added Jonathan, " I al ways use my lawyer as I do my hogs; when I want them to go to the other end of the yard, I put the feed there, and they gallop to it." The answer wvas so ready and so drolly delivered, that the lawyer gallopped (like the hog) to his feed, and was fully fed by his client. THE serv'ant of a Prussian officer one day met a crony who inquired of him how he got along wvith his fiery master. "Oh, excellently !" answered the servant; " we live on very friendly terms; every morning we beat each other's coats; the only difference is, he takes his off to be beaten, and I keep mine on." Too TRUE TO MAKE A JEST oF.--Aunt Phebe says it makes her shudder to read so many advertisements of printers, " for boys of good moral character," for she knows that they intend making " devils" of them. WOULD'NT DO IT.-We saw a drunken man last evening trying to get a wvatch man to arrest his own shadow. His com plaint was that a contemptible looking scoundrel kept following him. " Nowv, BILrLY, my dear, you must give your little sister half of your apple." "I don't want to, mother." "Yes, do, my dear ; that's a good boy. It is more bless ed to give, than to receive." "No it ain't mother ; not alwvays. There's some good things I'd as lieve give as take--but not apples." " What things, then, my dear t" " A good wvhipping, mother," said the lit tle fellow as ho slided out to play.

J. E. MARSAL,-Dear Sir: In compli ance with your request, I make this simple state ment of facts. My boy Daniel stuck a thorn in his foot about the first of last June, the thorn was extracted, and no more thought of it for 15 or 20 days, his foot then began to swell, and in a few days it was opened. It discharged a large quantity of matter. The discharge continued for eight days, and then esed. His foot then re-commenced swelling and extended up his leg, thigh, and hip, with violent pain. He then be gan to spit from his lungs matter similar to that discharged from the abscess on his foot. I then called in medical aid, and from the remedies used. he was alternately better and worse for eight or ten weeks. During this time a large abscess 'formed upon the hip, the discharge was large, and as soon as it ceased, a general swelling of his leg, thigh and breast commenced, which was very hard to the touch, and at times experienced much diinulty'in swallowing. Medical aid seemed of no further avail, and was discontinued. I then had recourse to your "Magical Pain Eradicator." In forty-eighthoura, from the time I commenced its use, his foot began to soften; the swelling on his hip and breast subsided, and I amn pleased to say he is noe uuel. I again used your remedy in. a ease of Neu ralgia, with great sticcess, giving immediate re lief. I have tieid It also for Tooth-Ache, with my youngest child, with entire suecess. From the success I have had in the use of your ".Magical Pain Eradicator," I have no hesi tation in recommending it to the public. Yours truly, \W. W. HUGHES." The above statements of the use of " Mar shall's Magical Pain Eradicator," nrc known by me to be true. (Signed) ANGUS BETHUNE. None is genuine without the written name of J. B. Mfarshall on each box.

The Principal offers his very sincere thanks to lia Patrons for their liberal support and kind en :ouragement, which he hopes the result of his la bors will justify, and that the ensuing year will prove their unabated confidence. Having become Proprietor as well as Princi pul of the Institute, an additional guaranty is thus given to the public, that every exertion on his pari will be made to deserve and ensure its success. and to make it what it professes to be, a superio, School. Every means has been taken in the choice of AssiSTA-TS and TEXT Booxs, to render it more than ever an essentially Southern Institution, and in the Music Department it will be found that few schools can vie with the amount of talent and the number of Teachers employed. Circulars of Terms &e. can be had by applica tion, by mail or otherwise to the Principal, and a Catalogue is on the eve of publication. R. I. NICHOLLS, Principal and Proprietor. Edgefield, December 25th, 1850. Edgefield Female Institute. T HE Trustees of this Institution have much pleasure in announcing to the public its per feet success during the past year, and they feel more than ever justified in recommending it to public patronage. Believing that private direction of Scholastic nstitutions is more condusive to their success and utility than public governance, they have dis posed of the property; under proper restrictions, to the present Principal-Professor R. H. Nicu OLLS, and feel confident, that, under his experi enced guidance, the Institution must prosper. Every step has been taken to render it a truly SouTrniERN SCnoLL by divesting it, as far as pos sible, of Northern influence, either literary or personal, and they feel that they have now a School in their mids ,adapted to their utmost pre sent and future need. In relinquishing the proprietorship of the In stitute, they by no means lose their solicitude for its sucess-on the contrary, they will always re main watchful guardians of its vital interests, and existing still as a corporate body, they will ever be ready to protect and foster it.

All communications pertaining to this depart-. meat be addressed to E. W. M. KIN~G, Esq. Memphis, Tenn., Feb'y., 1850. The Faculties, for intellectual abilities, moral worth and professional acquirements, will compars favorably witht the most distinguished in our coun try. The medical faculty constitutes an anomaly in this or any other country--all of them are able lecturers and the best of teachers. Those who will contemplate our geographica. position, and the extent of our population, can have no doubt as to the eligibility of our situation for an enterprise of the kind. As to health, inclu ding all seasons of the year, we deny that any other city has more. A common error exists in the minds of many students relative to the place of studying medicine;. those who intend practicing among the diseases of the W-st and South should certainly educate them selves at a school whose Faculty are practically acquainted wiih those diseases. That the public may lbe satisfied of the perma nener of this school, we feel it our duty to state, that i'he Trustees and Faculty form a unihin action, which augurs well for its fututre success; and that the peculiar internal organization which connects them, cannot be interrupted.
