Indeed Indian Corn. as a table vegetable, is one of the best of American resources for a good dish at short notice. But when we consider its other uses, as bread and as food for stock, may we not indeed bow the knee in thankfulness to the Great Giver ? If Cotton be King, and l)7Feat be Quen. among the productions of nature, American Corn is, to say the least, Prime minister of the Court. The essay of Professor UNGER embraces a long variety of otlier articles of human diet, but we only turned to it for a glance or two at ihe more promiient ones we h-ive im.aed. It may be added that Mi 1I- is the great frican breadstulf. . There is another fact we would make a note of: it is, that'both the 1tutioes,-tllhe (o.aled) Irish, and the Sw-eel, aire na tives of the American Continent.

As the searon is at hand for settitZg turl y hens, let us condense from the ountry Centleman some hints on Turkey Raising. 1. The black and bronze colored are the hardiest, grow astest and ttten quick est. 2. Place two or three chicken eggs in the turkey nest after the lien has been setting a week. They will hatch with the Iturke S and teach th.'m to peek. ,. Dont give yoing turkeys pepper. Corn. ale, beer, wine, black pepper, or aiy thing of the sort. 4. Let them alone under the lien's wings far 15 or 20 hours after they are hatched. 5. Then fleed them with hard.oiled eggs, chopped but not too fine, eird, crumbs of bread soaked in milk, shreds of meat a.nd liver boiled and ninced. 6. As they grow cIder, give fine hotmi. iv soaked inx milk, lettuce, leeks and the greeni of onions. 7. P'ace the hiein and chicks under a roiny coob or pen, in the suit on the t. Feed the mother turkey abundantly afer hatclhing as well as before; and this r reason that ought to be borne in .a1inl bV all poultry raisers. Mark it: ' For though she does not give milk, she gives heat, and let it be observed thait as noperson ever yet saw healthy pigs with :a poor sow, so no iman ever saw healthy chickens with a poor hen." 9. Shield the young from dampness and cold on the one hand, and intense sun. shine on the other Such is the substance of the C'wzntry Gentlenwn's advice, and we regard it un exceptionable in the main. For' "ecurde we would say clabber; for the "greeni of ouiins,' we wol substitute eschallot tops; and we would also stick to the time. honored recipe of one grain of black pep. prsoon after hatching, imerehy because we have knowun it to do well repeatedly. But the same eases might hatve done wvell without it.---There is also a plant called Jferusalem Oak. which answers a good purpose 15, oicasiinal ly chopped tip with the tood of young turkeys. From aniothier aiuthiorit v' we derive the hint, thiat the gobbler running with the hens should lie three years old. We ditffer with the "' (enttlenwn" as to puttinig the coolb on the grass. WVith our hieavy momarinig dews this will not db.. The yrbaet of grass is in our opitnion the h-t. Bt let them run on grass when not damp.
