h m the ha ching movement, and conseiu?<iitiy
go? s to siiow that the preservation
jfs 11; worm eggs can probably be morel
i if ly effected in cellars properly adapted j
or the purpose. th iti in ice houses. Tie se I
ast are not always wuiiin the reach ofperions
engaged in rearing silk worms, whereis
almost cv< ry one can have access to a
suitable cellar, c ive, or dry well.
The place where the eggs are deposited '
should be cios-d or cut of]'so as to prevent
the circu'ution ofi.s air witch will tiius h|.
w.jys remain at the temperature ofthe sur- !
rounding e?rtb. A thermometer piuced J
iemt the eggs should be examined occasi- '
t I
inally in the warm s' ason, to ascertain
,v!)Ct!i;r the temperature ke ps sufiieien l>
ow. It ii! not do to trust to the feel, tigs j
or this purpose, as a place may feel sufti- i
jiently cool, whilst it is actually warm eni
ugh to Ctu.se tlie eggs to ha'cuout. To
nsurc success the 'heirnometer shuulJ nc-\- j
?r be above 5G or 57. The eggs hiving
>nce p *ss d through tlieir hybernation, a
very short exposure to warm h will excite
t!?u hacb ng movement, so that handling or
breathing upon the vessels containing diem,
should Ije avoided as much as possible.
In asserting that silk worm eggs may be I
prevented fioin hatching, if kept at a temp,
era lure not exceeding 07 Fahrenheit, some
explanation may he necessary, especially o
those \\h ?, :ii lucir attempts a; preservation,
h?ve i, i! t c i'?gs to hatch in vessels almost
r o
f rut dir. ctly in contact with ice. The
*gg> designed to be kept from hatching must
be deposited in the situation where th- y are
to re; i tin, cither previous to winter, or ai
least sonic time before its tl jso. This wll
prevent t!:etn from starting or getting a
tendency to hatch; for if this hatching movein
T.t ever commences, the worms must be
suffered ;o come out at the natural period,
ati i any attempts to restrain them from doing
so, w;!l destroy the embryo nsect in the
she!!, or injure it to such a degree thut the
worms will t idier die sunt afur hatch ng,
or dr: g out a f? eble ex stenco. If ih-y li\t.
to spin, tin ircocoons will be very iuddf ren .
S :k worm ggs imported from Eurojie 1;4S|
winter and spr ng, generally turned out
very unfavorably with those who ullt mpted
;o prist rve them fur late feeding the past
season. The reason ol tni-may doub'less
be thus explained. E.'gs of he
one cn p race generally require to be
kept over a winter before they are siiscep j.
bit* of hatching. After passing a whole or
even a p r'ion of winter, all thut they re
qn re io raise in rh- in the ba ching moveiner
t Is a proper degree of warm h, and
(his they meet.with in crossing the gull
- r,.n,n il,o tomrM-rniiiro of whirti is never
bi low 70 even in the dead of wiim r. S.lk
worm eggs that have thus had die hatching
tendency excited in them during their voyage
to this country may serve very vvcI! for
the first or ear!) crop ; hut any a tempts to
keep ih< m back for iato feeding wi!i end in
Jisi'ppoin'ment as no d'greeol cold will answer
which will not either destroy, or proJuce
irreparable injury to the tender enibry>.
Not so however, where the eggs have
x;cn deposited m a cool situation previous
o v\ in cr. For being thus prevented from
tcp,uiring any tendency to hatch, they inay
je preserved so long as their temperature j
Joes not rise ubove 57 and would, per- j
tups, even resist one, two or three degrees
Ar the same time they rcc? ive no I
njurv from exposure in ice houses or re. j
ngerators, to the lowest degrees of cold, t
* hie * they do after the hatching mov-mem
?as onrt* commenci d.
Ail authorities upon the subject of preserving
silk worm eggs, agree as to the tie.
tessity of keep ng them as dry as possible,
riiii may be done by putting them irro
1 - iu .w.an???wmwiijjii
boxes or bo'ties and packing these away in .

Whig nomination rou uiu Presidency.
It was announced in part ol the edition of our
las! week's paper that the Wnig National p
Convention at Harnsburg had nominated p
Gen. Win. II. IlarribOP of Ohio for the Presi- r
dency. At the fust balloting, Mr Clay had 1
a plur.ilty of vote? ; but many of hi* trienda
learning that the whole strength of the Whig V
party could not te carried for him in either
Ne w York or Pennsylvania determined on that ^
account after some days, to vote for U.urison. f
On the final ballott, Gen. Harrison had 120 v
vote?, Mr. Clay IK) arid Gen. Scott 10; The 'S
Convention then by unanimous vote passed a \
resolution rec? mmendmg Gen. Harrison. t
Mr. Tyler of Virginia, was unanimously
chosen as the cand.date for tbc Vice Presidency,
on the first ba loting. Tiie ttclega'es K
from Virginia d clined voting on this question, I
not from opposition to the person in n??mina- i>
turn , but because they found th t the only t
persun spoken of was a citizen of their own ?
state. Gov. Barbour, of Virginia was Presi- (
dent of the Convention.
The Joint Committee of the Houses of our
State Legislature to whom was referred the j
memorial of the Great It itl Roid Company,
praying for an extension of the charter for
banking privileges, and for an advance by the
State of .$600,000 of State Stock on its sub. !
scription, have reported favorably t?> the prayer '
ol the memorialists. We hive neither room [
nor time this wt ok to co y i fie report. We v

we consider probable, Exactly
Riour.?The city Council of fj
Cincinnati lately laid a tax of cents on wa- ri
gons employed in that city. The owners re- <1
luied tu pay, and determined to suffer suit, r
Whereupon an individual off red to clear v
thcna all from the penalty of th ordinance for j "
a dollar each, which the wag.in owners
promptly paid. He then went to the collector
and paid the twenty five cent tax for each
wagon, and pocketed the 73 cents.
Threat of Rebellion.?The Van Rensellear
Family near Albany had a large tract L
of territory granted to tliern under the Du;ch j 1
Dynasty, which was afterwards confirmed or j .
allowed by both the British Government, and ; ^
the Government r.f New York. These lands al- (|
ways descended to the oldest of the family and p
was i he property of the late Gen. Stephen Van a
Renst'llear. A perputual leas? wag granted
to tenants, taking the land in parcels, and pay. S
ing an annual rent in wheat and other pro- s
Jucts of the soil. Since the death of the Patroon,
as the venerable G??u. V. was called, n
