We paid the hill, and I said nothing, but thought so much that ; the circumstance has been deeply im- i pressed in the mind over since. They j talk about the almighty dollar here.

The following is an oceurrence th.it took place hi early times, in Tenne.see, in which (?en. Jackson, (then a \oung man) was one of the principal actors. The i wliter heard the story often in the town where the occurence look place. The j (i aural was riding the circuit at the time referred to, as a lawyer, and Court was j silling in the little town of R i o v not much larger ?It was a pleasant summer evening, and a group ofth j gentlemen of the bar were standing in front of the only tavern in the place, engaged in discussing the news of the day, when a stranger rode up to tin* door of the tavern and dismounted. There was much of tiie dandy in his appearance, lie stalked into the hoifse, looking in itlier right imr left, and paid no attention whatever, to tiie friendiy greetings of the gentlemen before mentioned. The house was kept fiy nn aged widow lady, who was respected ;jnd esteemed hy all who knew her. The important gentleman sought her, presence, and demanded, rath* r than requested, 4i A room to ftitii sclj, o\d a light ' in it.V Mrs. It. politely informed him I that as Court was then sitting, and her Inuixe was somewhat crowded, it would he impossible to accommodate him in the way proposed, hut that he could have a room, if he would share it with another gentleman. This he refused; and finally became so insolent and annoying in his rentalk> upon the want of accommodation, that the lady sent lor (ieneral Jackson, as one in whom she could confide, and requested his advice. To him she stated the case, and he desired her to leave the matter to him I lo immediately took a servant, and made him enter the little log corr.-crih, rake the corn all j on one side, anil sweep the lloor.

Jack led him to the hole, at which he sh?| | ed, with very manifest tokens of rage. " There's your room," said the (ienerall " Don't keep us w iiling!"

The Sabbath catnc?the congregation assembled?the worthy deacons were all in their places?and the preaching commenced.

A discovery has been made by Mr. It. Prosser, of Birmingham, which b d < fa r to i be attended with important resuts to the interests of architecture. The n vdty of Pressor's process consists in the clav he- | ing dried, ground to jiovvdcr, and submit I - * --t-i- -:i! ted to pressure in metuiic mounts, mm: | the particles cohere together. As t!i< re is no water in combination with the clay, no drying process is necessary, consequently the articles made by tins method are ready to he fired or burned as soon as they leave the machine. Owing to the gr< at pressure required to cause particles of clay to colore together, the articles nude !>v thi* process have greater density are 1 ;il*0 less porous, and not subject to decay in wet or frost. In addition to those advantages, any architectural device may be impressed upon the clav, which, when burnt will retain all iiie sharpness of the original, however elaborately finished.? By this process bricks may he made in all weathers, and with greater economy | than by any other plan known at present. The brick press is worked hv hydraulic pumps, about three hundred tons pressure, thus producing the adhesion and cohc. sion. The machine delivers the brick (four at a time in the present machine) ready at that instant for the kiln, requiring no exposure to the atmosphere to dry. The whole operation, from the time of putting the powdered clay into the machine to the delivery of the brick, occupies about half a minute. Machinery might readily he constructed to procure fifty bricks a minute.?Atheneum. COMPARATIVE TART,Ft, Showing /he money value of the agricultural industry of the several States of the Union. In the September No. of Hunt's Mcr chants' Magazine is a table, furnished for publication in that journal by the Secretary of State, showing the amount, in quantity, of the agricultural products of the Union. This table docs not, however, include Kentucky, North Carolina, Michigan, Wisconsin, or Florida. KenMickv and Middle Florida had not sent in their returns, and the aggregate from the Southern Slates had not been made up. With the aid of tills table we have ma lo an estimate of the money value o the several products, and have placed the result side by side with the population of' the States respectively, to show the yield per iicad, in round numbers.

Bailey, Member of the Societies of Agricultural and Horticulture. Translated frutn the French, with Notes adapting it to the use of farmers in the United States of America, by Elizur Wright, Jr.. formerly Professor of Matt hematics, and Natural Philosophy in the Western Reserve College. Translator o! La Fontaine's &th Agriculture is the foundation of all bumah /arts?the art for which man was made, and I the perfection of which is his chief happiness I and glory as the lord temporal of this planet* Of this suhlime art, all oilier arts and science* i are but satellites, their business being to wait CM, enlighten, and adorn it with their moonshine. Consequently no man more than the agriculturist needs the full use of his brains, and a perfect command of all the treasures of human experience. So the farmers of the United States view the matter; and in presenting them with a translation of the cele. brated Maison Rustiquc, of the French, we have no doubt of their hearty support. It ic [ the work of all works on "practical agriculture j ?the most scientific, clear, and ccmpreheriI sive, France has long excelled in profitable [ farming. This is the source of her wea'th. I England is rich by coals and commerce. Her agriculture is splendid, but sometimes costs more than it cotnes to. Those who have fortunes to spend may buy the vast works of Marshall, lhckson Arthur Young, Loudon, ' &.C., but those w ho wish to get a fortune out of I he soil will find the French writers better able to show them the way. The excellence of French elementary w orks is w ell known to all teachers. For centuries, the A/aison Rustique has been, in Franco, the standard elementary work?the spelling book and grammar of larming. The present edition for , M the nineUenlh century," has been re-written and brought up with the 44 march ofmind," hy sixty of the ablest 44agronomes" of France. II has all the light of the latest improvements, | not only in Frauce, but in all Europe. Wiiliatn C'obbet, one of the most successful farmers both in England and America, who ! wrote the best stylo and the host French grammcr that ever was, valued the Mais m I Ru-itiqucs, not only as an encyclopedia of i farming, but us a means of educating his j children, lie w as his own schoolmaster. In ; winter evenings his family resolved itself into j a school, and he thus speaks of the use then made of this work;? 44 Our book of never failing resource was t the French .Maison Rustique.or Farm House, | w hich, it is said, was the hook that first temp, i ted Dugnosnois (I think that Was his name,) the famous physician in the reign of Louis I XIV., to learn to read. Here are all the four- I legged animals, from the horse down to the | mouse, portraits and all; all the birds, reptiles, j insects; aII the inudes of rearing managing, i and using the tame ones, and of destroying those that are mischievous; all the various j traps, springs, nets; all the laborsTf the field and garden exhibited, as well as the rest, in plates; and there was I, in any leisure moments. to j<iin lliis inquisitive group, to read j the French, and tell them what it meaned in I English, w hen the picture did not sufficiently i .i..;? r J ,,mvr have been without a ' rapiaui mcv.i. * ..v ? ?. copy <?> tins book for forty years, except during the time thai I was fleeing Irom the dungeons of Castlereagli and JSidmouth, in 1817, and when 1 got to Long I.-luin!, the fir?t book I bought was another fl/aison Rustique.*'?Advice to Young Men, Art. 291.
