However, it is j this lest sum which I have taken es the ba- < sis of my operation.

Indeed, I ask c?f vou sir what other branch ofngricul ural industry efT rs to the cul iva. , tors such great profits ?'' The labor estimated by Mr. Stone fo be r?_..! 1 -.li. ? . r _ i n<\ 11 r i?_ i <juin'u in unending 10 worms i ir iun iu. 01 s ik, nt the time when most labor is necessary, is i hat of two hands and a boy or girl The j hands actually employed by Moris. Carrier in ' nukingOCS lb- of cocoons, or 93 lb. of silk j was one man one woman and a c' ild. From ! the prices of labor put down ly Mons. Car- , rier, it appears that he valued Ins woman as half a hand, and the child one third of a hand. The whole amount ol labor employed l>v him was, therefore, equal to ?3 0 6 days of a full hand. Supposing the bey or girl of Mr. Stcne equal, in like manner to one third cf a ful] hand, and taking 42 days as the time which the silk worms ol this country require to be fed, the total amount of labor necessary accorJing to his estimate, to make 100 lb. of e:lk is 81 2-3 days of a full hind. The worms fed by M. Carrier, live longer, and of course require longer feeding and more labor than those fed in this country. They also produce larger cocoons ; but rot in sufficient proportion to compensate for the greater labor. It is also to be taken into the account in the experiment ?.f M. Carrier, that the tree f om which he fed was the Italian cr common White Mulberry. Where as, in this country, the rnorus inulticaulis is now every where substituted; the gathering of leaves from which costs from one tenth to one sixth less labor than from the Italian, because the leaves are in this proper iou larger, and there is no c.nn'oing necessary to reach them." The experiment ofM. Carrier d terminus not only the actual cost of feeding a given number of worms in France, hut also the protit which the business regularly conducted would yield. The profit he found to be GO per cent, per annum upon the capital invested.? But by substituting the moms niulticaulis (which in I ?33 the time of the experiment, was little known even in France) for the morns alba, or Italian mulberry, the kind used by him, the expense would have lecn much less, and the profit greater in proportion. The saving would have been r.ot only in the labor of gathering and feeding away the leaves ; but also in 10 of the 11 years rent of the land, and 10 of the 11 years expense of cultivation embraced in his account; inasmuch as the capital would have been productive from the beginning, or at the bast, after the first year, had the multicauiis been used: And there also would have been a still further saving in the original cost of the trees. Paradoxical as th's state roent may seem, when tiic relative prices of the multicaulis in this country, and the Italian tree in France are considered, it is nevertheless true. For the price of the multicaulis last winter was about 3 cents per bud, and Mr. Carrier puts down the first cost of his trees at one frank, or more than 18 cents. Now suppose a pecson wishing to have 1000 Italian, and 1000 multicaulis trees growing next summer, his Italian trees, at M. Carrier's price, would cost iiim 1000 franks, equal to $282,20, besides the labor of planting them. Whereas 1000 mnltir.an is hurls nrnrniwl ot ?30, and merely stuck in ike ground where lie wished his trees to stand, would, by fall, give him 1CU0 tr^rs larger than his Italian, and costing less than one sixth as much. The multicauhs would afford sumo leaves for feeding the tirst season, and an abundant supply the 6econd ; whilst the Italian trees could not be strinned';f *.!,r r'f*""*vo'r' O r ?f BWM?OrOCTWW j the extra.-rdinary properties of the multicaulis | 1.9 that, even at the present high prices, a plan- j tation may be stocked wth it at less cost than ! with any ether variety of the mulberry tree ; ever used in the silk culture, j The facts on which are based the foregoing ; calculations of profit from silk culture are too ' i few to warrant strong confidence in the -cor- | redness of general conclusions drawn from j j them.

Canada affairs were a prom- ! nent topic, and the invasions from this side if the line were.remarked upon with great ee'iing. The Duke of Wellington tliought | ?ueh a state of things unknown in the civil- j zed wrold. Lord M<dbo mo palliated tlie j lurages as well as he could, on account of he extent of o r wilderness territory, and; he peculiarity of our confederate Govern- j meet; but added that our Government had 3een addressed upon the subject with stronS representations. Lord Brougham also sn?d i good wo d for flu Unit"d States Indeed, :here was generally* kind feeling in the debate, considering the na'ure of the grievances complained of. Lord Durham was very anxious to bring forward immcdia'cly the affairs of Canada, and questioned Lord M Ibourne as to the earliest time. The East India relations of the British Government occupied o good den! of time in 'lie debate. " I am not prepared," says Lord Melbourne, to bring in a bili for repealing the corn laws, nor will I bind myself* n " no future occasion to give my vo'e agai tsi the " repeal." Tuc Ministry is divided upon this subject. Sir Ro ert Peel, in the Commons, bore down quite hard unon our Governmenh llo quoted General Jackson's invasion of the Morulas as to what the Americans thought of taking caro of n People who could not take care of therm lvr>s, and as un exruse if the British should march over the lines and redress tlicvr grievances with the pirates themselves. The whole debate, as it refers to us, is one ofgrerr interest, nnd 1 hope our newspapers will find room for it. From Rio Janeiro and Buonos Ayres we have later dates. From Rio there is nothing of interest but commercial news. Gov. Rosas, in his Message to the Buenos Ayr. ean Legislature, speaks with somecmplia. sis of" the aegressive conduct" of the Cap. tain of the C. S. Corvette Lexington, about which I presume some negotiation is now going on. The British troops are collecting at Madawaskn. About 2,000draughted and reg, uUr troops were on the frontier. This news however, is not considered warlike he re, and is not so in fact A letter to the Portland Advertiser, dated at Aurora, the loth, says thai it vva9 understood tint Gen. Sco:t lind received n letter from Sir John Harvov the night previ:>us. which was quite pacific. A Resolve has been reported in the Maine Legislature and was made the order of the day for Monday, declai m?, in substance, that whenever Sir John Harvey abandons all i lea of occupying the disputed territory with a military force, or of attempting an expulsion of the civil force sent 'here under tnc Maine Land Agent, tlem the Governor ol Maine will withdraw fa's forces. Richmond, (Ya.] March 19. A disastrous explosion ook place in the coal mine of the Black Heath Company, in Chesterfield, yes'erday morning. From a note sent to the President of the Company, we learn that between fifty and sixty of the hands and two overseers had descended tnc shaft previous to the explosion, und that three others, who were about to decsend, were kilied.
