"CURING AND S TACKING FODDER. -M*. Eihtor; Until last year, I was in the j habit <if curing my fodder wholly in the sun { and putting it up in double stack-*. This I t ?call the ??Id plan. The portions to it are; < " in the first place, that awtay of the leaves dry. { crumble, and arc tosfc, ere the steins and , succulent portions are tit to be slacked. 1 n s \he second place, that intensely hot sun is t hurtful to the fodder that cured' in the shade ^ Jaeinir nlurnvs the ino$Jt fteuHnrnt and nutri- r two*. It is the practice of tire best English, | French and Flemish, farmers in curing their i liay, to exposj it as tatfe as possible to the ] sun. It is carried m dry, bat h preserves i its green color; and ymt see hay two or three < years old in their marirct of so bright a green i color. that we would scarcely cticeive it to ? be cured; yet they are tw tlicpractice of pre. | acrvtng it P?r years,and value it more for its { age. Cared in this way, scarce y a leaf is i 'wasted and the hay preserves its freshness , and fragrance; and it is said that at least ten i per cent, is gained tn tpiantity, and as much ? in quality. A third objection to the "hi plan | i<?, that the fodder is more liable to be scri- i sitlriy injured by dews and rain; and the fact < f ... is, in a season like this, when we have had | rains almost every day* if we arc to depend , upon curing our f??dder wholly in the sun, ' we shall not have one good slack in ten. i If. therefore, we tan fad upon a plan by i which we can make better fodder and with | less sunshine, we shall of crmrse, be running less risk, and stand a better cbance ol get- j ,' ting in that part of the crop. With this t Vtew, I have the fodder which is polled in | the forenoon stacked in the evening of the etame day, provided there has been n ? rain. ( about it. (f it is wet, I allow it to become *anrf..?tlv rtri- Kof.iro it i< started* ami II1V |*V?IVV?M Ml t WteC'l W ? ? ?w w..v,.w-7 ? f plan is simpty this: A p<>lc k placed tt? the ground. nt the ap *t where yeu intend In stack* F<>ur othcrpolea, or fence rails if your stacks be small, ' are placed around the centre pole about a fool or more ffom the bottom and then \; all tied logetlicr at live top, with a grape vine or anything handy, forming a cone, i Place some brush or a few rails at the hot- I torn, so as to raise tire fodder n little off the j ... a ground. Then commence laying your fod- I der m tingle bundles around this cone and r when vim have finished, it will be a hollow i stack. The air having free passage under j f ticath the stack, will circulate in tlie hollow, j t ami the fodder finish curing in the. shade and | t unexposed to the weather. You may cure ! t * and stack pea vines in the aante way. i i For this improvement, as I conceive it to j t lie, i ain indcbiei loan old agricultural I friend who had all his lite followed the 'good old way' of curio? and stacking fodder, until about two years ago, he happened to learn from an agricultural paper, not a i "oId ncgrn,n that the best inode of curing hnv, Ac,, was to ex [kmc it but little to the sun, a lie conceived lus plan of stacking fodder so ns to have it cured partly in the shade. He has adopted the plan for the last two years, and thinks he makes belter fodder hv it, and certainly runs less risk of weather, I have also bad my fodder stacked in (he same way. am! am much pleased with the plan; an i i now send it to you to make "book knowledge o if.

In 1761, the settlement nadc on Long Cane, Abbevidc District, rvas nearly broken up by a massacre of the ^a Indians, nr;d many of the best citizens were nmdercd at the Cong Cane Bridge, near Calhoun's S? ttlement.

As was p'; he custom in those days of simplicity and ? cordial hospitality, a I were invited far and near, to join in the festivities, which, it is he said, lasted three days without intermission. an The beauty of the bride was the theme of all nj| nngues. She had extensive connections of ihc highest respectability, and the liospitali- [|, [y of hpr parental home was proverbial.

This Indian is represented as being one of the several brothers, who have bden the terror not only of the whites, but of their own tribe, for sometime past; and the one hung had the day before threatened to kill another man; and the inhabitants deeming themselves insecure with such a savage among them, summarily lynched him.

An erroneous opinion prevails among many j persons that the Asiatic Cholera strikes its vie- *j tim with the suddenness almost of lightning. 1 Thn fact is, that there aro very few diseases which give earlier or more certain framing of I their approach ; and it is only after the patient has labored under the incipient stages for three 1 or four days, that the final attack occursi If I the premonitory symptoms aro watched, cholera { is comparatively harmless, indeed far less fataj i than any other disorder to which mankind is subject. The first indication of the approach of thW disease is a hardness or follneis in the abdomen, betraying a slight derangement in the organs there situated. It a glass of water Is laken, a feeding of distress, or u'AeAsiAesfe Ensues, generally of a lighl AharadteV bo\Vevc'r, and in consequence frequently disregarded altogether, or soon forgotten-. In liine?AA ib'i nekt- day perhaps-, Occasional pains shvJOt thrtftSgh the stomach, and a sensation o? nausea is experienced-. bisrrhdea eOsWfts, perhaps Vomiting, the next day aftc\\ Or, iO violent Cases, on the same dAy; Even iboAghthe pftifent may have disregarded the former symptoms, if h'e \VIII flow call in a physician, and take proper remedies, he is nearly sure of recovery, more sure than a person attacked with fever, or olh'er ordinary disorders. If, however, he neglecti these fore, warnings, violent cramp sncceed*, And then there is real danger. The only peril, therefore, that eii*ts, arises from the carelessness of the pUhlie, lAperirtduc- ' ed by the gentleness nf the disease in its earlier < stages. It a man is attacked with the cramp, I and dies in a few hours, it is said that he tell a ' victim to the cholera in a single day! yet in < reality, if inquiry was instituted, it \Vould he < found that he had hddn laboflng under the pre- < inonltdry stages ol the disease fot kfeveraldays; < and that the cramp, which was cOOsidiifiA the ' first, was in rcAlity the last AAsaUlt of the One- ' my. The lassitude aiicoirtpanyieg the eArller I progress of the disorder, joined to the extreme '< mildness of the symptoms, induces frequently ft ' criminal carelessness, which leAdfc to jhe rttost I fatal results. Yet, if the approaches of the dis- I ease are wAtdhcd, they are certain to yield to < proper and timftly treatment. I AVOW YOUR PRINCIPLES. We take the following from an address deliv- < ered l?y Dr. Ollin, b?fi>rd the students of the University of Middlet'dWn. 'fhe Addr'Ass is said, by those who hftvA rUAd it, td he a most admirahie production, 'fhe eXthtct below is peculiarly appropriate to the timts: ' Always lie teAdy to AvoW yodr principles of action. Scorn cOrtceAlrttent. Put on yoUr true colors to the gaze of men and angels. There is a false prudence, a mock morlesty, which inculcAtes the opposite lUethod.
