if lite boiling water happens to fa!! on the !

prevent tbo heat from escaping, os that the |

tlte stocking can ho removed. Let us lea raj
from this,, that boiling hot water applied,
to the skin of a hog, will produce similar:

cloth that will set close, and wollcn is the best,
a* it is not so good a conductor of J
heat as linen or cotton. Thick cotton, or I
double may answer, but a horse blanket or!
woolen is best. When this is wrapped close
to the hog, as the s'ocking is on the leg, so
sis to exclude the air, then pour on boiling ;
hot water, sufficient to wot thoroughly the
wtw)!", and the bknfcet vv.il! retain the heat, j
so that it will soon scald the hog, and let the j
hi-'ir loose. Trv, and if not loose, cover, j
?r*I pour oil more boiling water. When ;
stde.of the hog is cleaned, turn him !
over and irem the oI|kt side similarly.
If the hog be small, a blanket will cover
the whole, fie may be rolled in it.
If you put tar in Hie boiling water, or!
sprinkle fine powdered rosin on ihe hog, be- '
fore yoo cover him. which is better, it will i
take off!ho scurf, and his skin wilfbe ns

she had that morning obtained a Certificate

due was only a dollar and a half, but that

find food for hcr.cliildrcn; a,nd also, thai j
when the landlord made the ejectment, he
actually took the pot which'contained the

probably for lite morrow, from the fire, and
rendered Hs contents useless. The few

1. Hardy gray and white worms, orange cocoon?.
2. Gray^wor.rs, mostly sulphur colored cocoons.
3. Two crop white.
4. Mimmrth bulphur.

The three first named varieties aro from a per;
fectly healthy stock, and havo been raised in
I the south for several years. The two last, in
; troduced from tho north u year ago, were noi
entirely exempt fio:n di>eatw lust summer ; but
as the greatest care was taken to breed omy
.from the best cocoons, it is believed th ire will
bo little or no sickness amongst them in fu.ure,
from any hereditary taim. The cocoons of tho
pea'.nut wero very heavy and firm. Of these
two varieties liowevc , only a limited number can
be supplied to each apiicant.
The eggs may be forwarded by mail to purcha.
set a at their cost andii.sk of carriage; or they
will be deposited in Richmond (if so desired)-; at
; Cotton and Clarke's, free of expense, within
two or three days after the order has boon re.

ccHar until called for. Or in case the purchaser
might prefer it, limy may remain in my ice-house
until uearly the time they are wanted t> be
hatched?as there will be no danger of their
hatching.even in June or July, in less than two
weeks alter being removed from tho ice, if kept

Tho eggs will in all cases be warranted to .be
in the best condition when they aro forwarded,

into the charming "moss" or "monthly rose,"
with the best manner of harvesting and preserving
their crops and produce.
We shall by no mea.is overlook the great

From the kind promise# tendered by friends
to the undertaking, valuable original contributions
may be anticipated; and other correspondents
are respectfully solicited to communicate
any information that may be interesting
or beneficial to others, relating to their mode
of culture; as facts collected from the tillers
of our own soil, with their observations and
