One single extract from the work is t Uiai we can now give our readers. "^Considering Ids extraordinary fccondii and adaptation to ah climates, the ease er cheapness with which he is reared (liriviti almost equally Well on animal and vegetub food) andtheJacility with which he is coi veyed from ona place to another it is indw surprising that 50 little is known in this coui try of hi* hi.story.nnJ mAiis. and such lis attention paid to the improvement of so v Iuublc an animal as the Domestic Hog. 'j a great extent, among many of our farmei has the hog been considered as a subordi ate species of live stock?a mere consum at the refuse of the kitchen, whose prcsen< must be toleratedas a necessary evil. Tl vast improvement to be effected by the in portatiou of new garieticS, or judicious cro: hcs among those easily procured, seems 1 have almost culpably escaped the attentic of lhose with whom the improvement of a other kinds of s'ock has been a subject < intense and constant reflection. Nutur; History abounds w^in smguwriy minute a< tails of tiie habits of many rare, and in a ngriculiur.il point of view, apparently usi less animals. Volumes have been wriitt on the breeds, the treatment and diseases sheep.

It ulso true, if enjoying free access to boo and sufficient leisure, that we can, as t result of prolonged investigations, gather one time much of interest, regarding tl origin and habits of swine as the subjec of Na'ural History ; at another many fa calculated to aid or govern our estimate the comparative value of improved varieti* and again, sound practical directions as the best mode treatment to secure theutmr limit of perfection. But the attainment knowledge by a process involving such e petiditurcs of time and research, is imp uble to the many, and sufficiently irkson to ino few whose situation authorizes ni whoso wishes lead them to attempt to cxcito a deep rogret that instead scattered truths, and .disconnected fuel though important in themselves, no piai practical, and connected treatise on a sul ject so important can be found. Frequent importations and repeated cro sings on them, have produced within tl last few years numerous breeds of swine this country, of which perhaps the most in -portant and most generally known are t follows :? J. The Berkshire hog. 2. The original and improved China. l\. The Bedford or Woburn hog. 4. The Mackay hog. 5. The Russian hog.' 6. The Leicester hog. 7.

Mr. Adams appealed to Mr. Hand to withdraw his motion for the previous question. Whether Mr. H. did so or no', the Reporter can iuipart no information be\ oud the inference to be drawn from the statement which follows. Mr. Adams said Iip wished to say a word on this suhj' Ci, because he found that there w as among his own constituents, and among that portion of the people ol this country w! o were now, by the act of God, deprived of the s. rv ices of their immedurt Rep rest* h fauve, (Mr. Lawrence,) much an.x ety in relation 10 it.

Mr. Hand was understood to say he had not withdrawn it. Mr. Adams regretted, he said, tl at the gentleman from South Carolina (Mr. Rhett) was unwilling to hear that there was no danger of* war with Great Britain. The jk previous question had been withdrawn, and, be h ijiod he would not be again interrupled. Mr. Rh< tt.

Mr. A la ins proceeded to make some remarks, of which the substance may be found below. fie stated for tho benefit of h's consutue,its ami, of tire immediate neighborhood of his constituents, and of tiie People of the whole country, that he did not apprehend, in the slightest degree, that there was any immediate danger of a war with Greut Britain, or forynrs to come. And he founded this opinion on two things : Jn the first place, he founded douthe Message of the President of tho . United S ates at the (^Hnmcncement of flic pnsent session, in which he (Mr. A.) (nought then; was not a single uord.of recommendation to the People to pieparo themselves for that great and terrible canflct which must ensue whenever we came in conflict with Great Britain. From the day he saw that Message, ho concluded in li s own mind that there wr?g no danger of a war with Gr at Britato. And why ? Because tie was sure that, tfUhe President of tho | United Slates himself had the slightest apI prHii ns on of Jang' r < f r-n immediate or ar!y collision, it would have been wrong in j trim not to have recoimiaiKied v? ry strong and tXiensive preparations for that event. I 1 hen, uKer tliat Message was delivered, he i (if r. A ) saw weeks upon weeks pass away 4^ under an nppichcnsion on the part of th^ I 1-1 I7rn< ?r ll>,.

But the very next morning li#saw it; and, in the hist letter from the Secretury of State o the British Minister, he saw fho"grounds upon hich the President had come to such a conclusion, and very sufely come to if. That correspond- n? et us ail must huve obd, find been of an irritating character. There wa> anger, passion, feeling upon boih sales; and the community and many mem- ~* h-rs ol Congress, see ng these expressions of irr ta'.ion, probably came to the conclusi -n, unnecessarily as he thought, that there was. danger of an immediate collision. II?*, soon as he saw ihe last le ter of the Secretary o' S a e, became satisfied that th re was no sue:; danger ; for, in the very beat and t< mpe>t of his f ission, the Secret .ry of Slate broke ofT, and said, that from the day on which the Pr? s dent of the United S ate* i nti red upon the duties of his station, lie had determined hat, in the event of the two parties riot heirg aide to come to an un? dersiaiidini; hy means of their negotiations, he would propose a reference of the gn at qu st'on at issue, for the second time, to a ilurd partv. To this the very natural reply \. of ?j British Miois.er was, that this was a now proposition, which he could only communicate in his Governm nt, as he would immediately do.
