sprr GOING UP AND COMING DOWN. , TT~ Thisjs a simple song, >'tis true, Alia songs like these are never ui?e ; And yet we'll try and scutier through . X pinch or two of good advicc. Thfen listen, pompous friend, and learu Never lo boast of such renown ; For fortune's wheel is on theUiirn, rr - - And some go up and some come down. We know ? vnst amount of stocks. * A vust umuuiil of pride insures; But Cute hns picked bo many luck*, We wouldn't like to warrant yours. Remember, then, and never spurn The one whose huutl is hard and brown; V* For he is likely to go up, And you uro likely to come down. Another thing you will agree, (The truth niuy be ?.? well confessed,) That "codfish aristocrucy " Is but a "scalything ut best. And though the tithes large and strong May seek the little ones to drown, J- Yet fishes all, both greut and small, ' ijt.. Are going up and coming down. * f Our lives are full of chance and change, And "cliauce," ytiu know, is never sure, And 'twere u doctrine new and strunge j. Thut placcs high are moat secure. And though the fickle god may smile, And yield the sceptre and the crown, 'Tis only for a little while? Then 15 goes up and A comes down. This world for you and me, my friend, lluth something more than pounds and pence ; Then let us humbly recommend , A little use of common sense ; Thus lay all pride and place aside, And have a care on whom you frown, For fear you'll see him going up. When you are only coining down. HOT BEDS?HOW HADE. farmers, iiku ouier people, are tond ol early vegetables. But it is too generally the case, that they neglect to raise them. People in the city will have the earliest to ; be obtained, and willingly pay exorbitant ! prices for tliem. Farmers could raise, even in tlie hotbed, j the earliest vegetables, at very little cost.? , The hot bed requires attention early in the season, when there is but little other work 1 on band, and consequently could be attend- j cd to about as well as not. We propose to j inform our readers how tlicy are made. j t SELECTION OF CKOt'ND. The ground upon which a hot bed should ' be made, should have a southerly or south easterly inclination. It should be fully ex- j posed to the sun and out of the shade or j trees, buildings, A dry place is prefer- j able?where water will not stand in pits j one or two feet in depth, after a rain. TIIE VKAME AND SASH. | The frame or box whii-h sm?viri? (lm c?tl. i r,"" "" "* j is generally about 4 1-2 or 5 feet wide, and may be made of any desired length. The frames nrejgeiierally made so as to be covered with from tliree to five sashes, cacli bash being commonly about 40 inches wide, ! and four and a half or five feet long. The frame may be made of inch plank?the side exposed to the north being six or eight inches higher than the southerly side, so as to have proper slope to the sun. The smallest sized glass should be used in the ssish?certainly not larger than 7 by 0. The smaller the size the better, as a small pane of glass is not so liable to be broken as a large one and can be more cheaply repaired. No cross bars arc used in the sash?the pains of glass overlapping j each other about a quarter of au inch, like i the shingles of a house, and resting on bars that run lengthwise of the sash, just the right width for the panes to rc*t on two bars. " The bare upon which the panes of glass rest should bo au inch and a half or two inches wide. . ..m? oiwxiuti ur inc. ULUb. It is a good plan to dig a pit from one to two feet deep where the bed is to be made, although this is not always done.? Over this pit must be placed the frame. ; . Now ?|1 in half full with some fresh horse { stable manure which has not beeu exposed to the rains, and which, within the last two weeks, has been turned over two or threo timeSj If the manure is rather dry, water should be sprinkled upon it. The sashes qf glass may now be placed upon the bed frnrn<* and the bed left'for about 12 hours when air ahould be given it, and it should be closed again. In three or four days the coil may be put on this bed of tnauure.? 1; Fine garden mould should* be used, and jt . shoo Id be spread to tlie depth of 6ix or eight.inches evutdy over the bed. In one or two-days the seed may be sown. If sowp^ a* soon as the soil is put on, the soil i? iaitrto burn $o*as to destroy the gdhn of the sefid. Therefore, air should be given to Hip bed once or twice before tie seed is sown. After the seed is Bown, the bed I should be sprinkled with water from the j watering pot daily till the plants appear. Air should be given daily when th?weatfi> ?r will permit sor a*.to' make the plant* strong and hardy. Tfte.tod should be kept at the temperature of about 60?. The outside of tbe'fraiue should he bauked up with manure so as to keep the bed warm. Iu cold, fraectBg weatlier the beds will need to be protected by being covered with mats or straw.?

In this manner thousandj of tons of the cheapest and most available material for manure is annually destroyed which should have been restored to the soil from whence it was taken. The best disposition that can be made of j this old straw is to haul it into the stables i jiikI cattle yards lu bo uk< d for litter and I bedding for tlio stock, which in tlio long cold nights of winter is so much needed 'or their health, comfort and improvement, and as soon as one supply lias absorbed the urine and become mixed with the droppings uau>.ii|| oq p|i10(|s 1j 'OjUUO P?U hosioij !>ip jo into a pile to ferment and decompose, and its place in the stables and yards replenished with a new supply. In this way many tons of valuable manure may annually be made. The next best disposition that can be made of the straw is to spread it where it I lays in alternate laj'ers of straw, eight, ten or twelve inches deep, and of peat or turf from the fence corners or creek sides, to a depth of two or three inches, until the whole is disposed of, where it will speedily decompose, and may then be hauled out upon the fields again. Farmers who arc laboring under the mistaken notion that the fertility of their land is inexhaustible, may regard this disposition of their straw too laborious. Such then ought not to do less than to haul it out and spread it as it is upon the poorer ridges and fields upon the farm to be plowed under for succeeding ciops.

Mr. /'Alitor: Again I present myself before you, but only to present a most productive piece of land, believing that what 1 i ...,o uttu UUU6 on a smaii scale can t>e (June on a larger. I deal not in fiction, but represent facts susceptible of proof. James V. Jones, of Burke county, raised on three roods and twenty-two rods of ground, the following products, viz: one bale of cotton weighing four hundred and .seventy pounds; sold for fourteen cents per pound. The cotton was succeeded by black barley; product, thirty bushels, worth five dollars per bushel. Next, a turnip crop, supposed to be five hundred bushels. Then a crop of Irish potatoes, three hundred and | tiny bushels, fur which the (5 corgi a Stale Agricultural Society awarded a twenty dollar pitcher. The next product was a heavy erop of Egyptian oats, which was succeeded by another very large turnip crop, then another bale of cotton, weighing over three hundred pounds; sold in Savannah for furty-eight dollars. In November, sown in wheat; harvested in June, thirty bushels. The wheat was succeeded by another crop of turnips, which is now?December 2Gth, 183G?on the ground, and supposed to !,< ftlirl.t I......1?1 1....I.-I- T?

The crops here enumerated arc tho products of six years, without any aim at rotation, but to get the most of any and each product, at the least expense, in the shortest time. The only manure made use of to occasion this extraordinary productiveness, was prepared by composting cotton seeds with muck, and cattle were penned upon the land daring .1- !. i * uie intervals ol 'crops. Mr. Junes never exposes liis cotton seed out of dooi'R, (neither will an)' economist,) until lie cttn compost them with muck, or earth of some sort, which he mixes in proportion of k'ix loads to one of seeds. If less tliau one acre, with so little expense, can be made so productive, what may ho expected from one hundred ficres under similar treatment ? Echo says, what ? and I remain Yours, ite., A.
