which amount to littlv or nothing. It retains I the sliding scale, and when it isudontod, the!

rates of duty on imported Wheat will range in each quarter (eight bushels) to $4 95, when the home price is less than 12 56 per quarter, thence falling gradually to 24c per quarter whenever the price exceeds $17 60 per quar

ter. In other words whenever there is a scarcity in Great Britain, the price will rise, the duty fall, and her ports be glutted with Polish and Genoa Wheat in a month,when down goes

the price, up rises the duty, and our Yankee Wheat on the way is handed off, or sold at a ruinous loss. This is the free Trade which

England offers us ! After a powerful debate of three days, this project was sanctioned by

the House of Commons by the decisive vote of

349 to 226 123 majority! the largest given

in a party struggle for many years. So all hope

of a more liberal commercial policy on the part of Great Britain is at an end. Who now will

refuse to unite in the Home Lf.acie?

Correspondence of the Phila'ltL U. S. Gazcltc. IIEXRY CLAY. j Washington, March 13, 1842. J. R. Chandler, Esq. The time approaches when Mr. Clay will retire for ever from the Legislative halls of the nation, where his voice has been heard above thirty-five years, and always hi support of the liberties, the honor,and the interest of the people of the United States. Few men have run a more brilliant, a more

honorable, or a more useful legislative career in any country; no one, certainly in this, than Mr. Clay; and it must be most gratifying to him now he is about to retire from the great theatre of his labors and usefulness to witness the

kind and friendly feeling which even his po

litical opponents now manifest towards him

and to hear of the honorable and generous testi

mony they boar to his worth, his manliness, his splendid talents and his noble nature. One

ot t tie most prominent men of the opposition

party m the Senate, perhaps the most promt

nent man, dining with a friend a few days ago. remarked of Mr. Clay, who became the subject

of conversation, that he had been in Congress

wnn nun tor a great many rears that ne was

a member of the House of Representatives when Mr. Clay was the Speaker and leader of that body, and, said the distinguished Senator, laying down his knife and fork and becoming eloquent as he warmed up with the subject, ;he was then the most splendid man I ever beheld, and such a speaker and such a leader as no legislative body ever saw in this country,

ana i oeueve i might say in any country; no

man can know him and not admire and love

him, he has so noble and generous a nature.and

is so manly and honorable in all he does." I give the words so near as I can recollect them, as they were repeated to me. Such is the testimony of a political opponent; can it be called

flattery? No, it is but the honest expression of

a generous and elevated nature of a man who

hesitates not to do justice even to an opponent.

and who can appreciate and admire noble qualities, though their possessor be his antagonist.

! could, remained in the reception room till Boz land Irving arrived, but even before this the lEast room was filled to overflowing. Irving

came first; but his appearance did not seem to satisfy the multitude, nor did he draw many after him as he made his way into the East room. Dickens was the great object of interest. When

Viis name was announced, all were on tiptoe to

get a peep at him. In the Senate to-day, Mr. Calhoun made a long speech against an increase of the tariff. He traveled over the whole ground, and manifested no disposition to yield a single iota. It will not be five years before he, and the whole South, will be the strongest advocates for pro

tection. If, as seems tar lrom lmprooaoie, we

should have a war with England, they will very soon discover thefoily of their past obstina

cy on this subject.

The House went into Committee of the Whnlf mi the bill authorizing a loan of twelve

millions. I presume they concluded they might as well suspend action on the appropriation bill, till they placed the treasury in abet

ter condition to obey its injunctions. Mr. vv lse

moved to amend by substituting fifteen for twelve years, as the time for which the loan should be made. Mr. Rosevelt, of New York,

opposed the amendment; he contended so long a time was unnecessary, and insisted that the

reason the loan authorized at the extra session

was not obtained, was that Mr. Ewing had 'hnx

tered" it about for the purpose of saving a quar

ter or a half per cent. Col. Pendleton replied

to him in a few very happy and able remarks,

and ascribed the difficulty to the" true cause

the shortness of the time. He however opposed Mr. Wise's amendment, on thc ground

that the Secretary of thc Treasury suggested

twelve years, and he had probably examined

the subiect. Mr. Adams followed in favor of

thc fifteen years. I left while he was speak

ing. By the way, I think this is the first time

he and Mr. v ise have concurred since the com

mencement of the session. . G.

Correspondence of the Baltimore Patriot. Washington, March 14, 1842. There is but little news stirring in thc city, hardly enough to make a letter of, or worth writing. Congress will commence the fifteenth week

of the session to-daj and the proceedings for the past week are no more pleasant than those

ot any of the weeks preceding.

The most important event of the week was

the receipt of the communication of the President and the Report of the Secretary of the Treasury touching the finances of the Government and the embarrassments of the Treasury Department. Neither of them have been actel upon, though both demanded thc immediate and earnest consideration of Congress. The public credit has rarely been so low as it is at present, and it is almost as bad here as at New York, where it seems to be dishonored

beyond all precedent for many years past. Treasury notes here are not only below specie, hut below the current funds of the District, which are the notes of the Baltimore Banks and the issues of the District Banks. This is a novelty in the affairs of Government lamentably to be regretted, and calling loudly for the action of Congress.

Correspondence of the Cin. Gazette. New York, Saturday, March 12. THE CALEDONIA IS SAFE. A thrill of gladness ran through our city this morning at the announcement of tidings that the Caledonia Steamship is safe in Liverpool harbor! For two weeks her safety has been growing more and more doubtful, until the

failure of the Unicorn to return this week to

Boston from Halifax, with news of her, when

she was gencrally given up for lost. I do not think insurance could have been effected on

I her yesterday at 75 per. cent, since our old sea

captains were unanimously of opinion that she

had been lost in the dreadful storm of March

17th to the 20th.off the banks of Newfoundland

The captains of the packets arc not very par

tial to steamships, and have little faith m them

Many have for days been sadly pondering on

the fate of their friends who were expected to

take passage in her. Judge of our joy then on

learning that at one o'clock this morning the British West India Mail steamer Clyne, on her

way from Halifax to the West Acadia steam

ship reached Halifax on Monday evening, 7th

inst, with Liverpool dates to the 19th ult, (lb days' passage) with advices that the Caledonia left Liverpool on the 4th, encountered a terrible storm on the 7th, was baffled and battered by it until the 11th, when, having lost her fore

starlmard bulwarks and ice-house, damaged her after bulwarks.taffrail,wheclhouse and larboard paddle box, sprung her rudder, and shipped a large quantity of water, completely drenched her fore cabin, the gale being still tremendous

irom tne west, tne captain resolved to put a-

bout and make for Cork harbor, which he did,

and thence reached Liverpool at midnight on

the 17th. The Caledonia proved an excellent

sea boat, and reached Liverpool somewhat the worse for wear, but staunch and dry, and without loss of crew or cargo. The Acadia was instantly got ready to take her mails, and left on the 19th, as already stated. She has started

straight back for Liverpool, and will conse

from thc Richmond Whig. MR. JEFFERSON, A TARIFF MAN! ! Mr. Scott made the self-styled Democracy open their eyes, Friday, when he read extracts from Mr. Jefferson's Messages, to prove that the

'Father of Democracy" was not only in favor of Internal Improvements by the Federal Gov

ernment, but was a warm advocate of a Tariff.

The proof was conclusive, and produced quite

a sensation in the Hall. As it is not generally known that Mr. Jeffer

son entertained these opinions, and in fact, di

rectly opposite ones having been attributed to him, we annex the extracts. It will be seen,

that he, in the spirit of an American, was not disposed to give Foreigners an advantage over our own people, and his Democracy did not

shudder at the idea of taxing European luxuries

for the support of Government and the encouragement of "Domestic Manufactures!" The

duty, he says, falls upon the rich, and he puts

it to their "patriotism" to say, if they would not prefer to pay this tax, and appropriante the

proceeds to Roads, Rivers, Canals, &c. W e

think Mr. Jefferson was wrong in recommend

ing internal improvements by the Federal Gov

ernment for we consider that syetem not on

ly unconstitutional, but highly impolitic, and in its tendencies corrupting and consolidating.

But as to the policy of taxing foreign luxuries for the maintenance of the National Indepenence, and for the advantage of our own citizens over foreigners we entirely concur with him

as we do in most of his political views.

Here are the extracts first from his Mes

sage in 1806, and again two years later, from

his Message in 180S.

"The question, therefore, now comes for

ward, to what other objects shall these surplus-

ses be appropriated, and the whole surplus of

impost, after thc entire discharge of the public

debt, and during those intervals when the pur

poses of war shall not call for them? Shall we suppress the impost and give that advantage to

foreign over domestic manufactures? Of a few

articles of more general and necessary use the

suppression, in due season, will doubtless be right, but the great mass of articles on which impost is paid, are foreign luxuries, purchased

by those only who are rich enough to afford themselves the use of them. Their patriotism

would certainly prefer its continuance, and

application to the great purposes of public Education, Roads, Rivers, Canals and such other

objects of public improvement as it may be

thought proper to add to the Constitutional

enumeration of Federal powers. By these operations new channels of communication will

be opened between the States; the lines of sep

aration will disappear, their interests will be

identified, and their union cemented by new

and indissoluble ties." Jefferson Message

1806.

"The probable accumulation of the surplus-

ses of revenue beyond what can be applied to

thc payment of the public debt, whenever the

freedom and safety of our commerce shall be restored, merits the consideration of Congress.

Shall it be unproductive in the public vaults? Shall the revenue be reduced? Or shall it not

rather be appropriated to the improvements of Roads, Canals, Rivers, Education, and other great foundations of prosperity and union, under the power which Congress may already possess, or such amendment of thc Constitution as may be approved by the States?" Jef

ferson's Message, 1808.

plant or sow the coming season. It is not too much to say, that thousands of acres of corn fail almost annually, from using bad seed. Better

to pay double price for good seeds, than use

poor ones if they could be had for nothing.

It is the custom to sow clover and grass seeds

on winter sown grain in March, and if there is

a little snow it can be done much better and

more evenly than without. Never attempt to

scatter, such light seeds in a windy day; and if

you value good crops, clean fields, and peace of mind hereafter, be careful to sow nothing but pure seed in your field. Weeds will come in rapidly enough without our sowing them. March is a trying month for domestic animals, if treated during our long winters as too many of them arc. There is a degree of cruel

ty in thus half-starving so many creatures, that deserves thc severest reprehension; and even a

regard to profit should induce a different course.

Just compare the profits of a cow well kept

through the winter, coming out sleek and smooth in the spring, with one reduced to a skeleton, barely making a living of it, and requiring good pasture till July, to get her in order again. So with sheep, swine and horses.

No man has a right, nor should he attempt to keep more animals than he can keep well.

t ences must be looked to this month, as ani

mals are apt, unless cared for, to be strolling a-

bout the fields, and will do much mischief on newly seeded grass lands, and nearly destroy

such wheat fields as they can obtain access to. Drains should be examined, sluices cleared, stagnant water let off, and the sown crops ex

amined, to prevent injury from such sources.

In all places where frequent passing and repassing is to be done, substitute gates for bars, and you will have access to your fields greatly

facilitated.

Trees may be transplanted this month, and

if every farmer would see the roads to the extent of his farm were planted with trees, it

would require but a few years to change the

whole aspect of our country for the better.

The maple, elm, ash, and in suitable soils the

locust mightjbe profitably used,andjif these were not to be had, fruit trees, such as the pear,

cherry, or pear might be substituted. In transplanting make your holes large, but not deep,

give the roots space to spread, use rich soil in filling up, and no not cover much higher than the earth naturally was around the tree. If the

top is heavy, it should besecured against winds.

There are multitudes of families in New-England that make all the sugar they need, from

maple tiecs planted within forty years; and such plantations are annually increasing. It has been ascertained at the south, that the at

tacks of some of the insects so fatal to fruit

trees, particularly the peach, may be prevented

by planting a small red ceder in the same hole

with the tree; ihe odor of the cedar being of

fensive to them. Wormwood has also been

tried in the same w ay, and it is probable any strong scented plant would produce a similar

result.

Have you made all the necessary prepara

tions for the coming season? Are your agri

cultural implements in good order your plows, hoes, sythes, rakes, harnesses, carts, &c. ready

for use? Farmers find it most unpleasant,when a piece of work is to be done, to be obliged to

go to a neighbor for the necessary implement,

and it is not unfrequently the case that the time spent in borrowing and returning a tool,

would purchase a new one, or if applied in

season, repaired the old one. Do not rely too

much on borrowing; thc practice is a bad one.

If you have neglected cutting cions, it may

be attended to now; but later than March is inadmissible, unless the grafting is performed as early as possible in the spring, and before the

buds start. It is truly surprising that the pro

duction of fine fruit occupies so little of the attention. Most of them have orchards, but in a

large proportion of them the fruit is good for

nothing; even hogs will reject a large portion

of it. Apples, it is found, have become the

cheapest article extant for making pork, as if

the hogs are allowed,they will keep themselves

and apples are one of the very few kinds of

food that is not materially improved by cooking

before feeding.

as they always do when roosters and nest eggs

are allowed; but continue laying perpetually,

My hens always lay all winter, and each from

seventy-five to one hundred eggs in succession

There being nothing to excite the animal passions, they never attempt to set. If the above

plan were generally followed, eggs would be

just as plenty in winter as summer. The only

reason why hens do not lay in winter as freely

as in summer, is the want of animal food, which they get in summer in abundance in the form

of insects. The reason they stop laying ana go to setting, after laying a brood of eggs, is the continual excitement of the animal passions by the males. I have for several winters reduced my theory to practice, and proved its entire correctness. It must be observed that the presence of the male is not necessary for the production of eggs, as they are formed whether the male be present or not. Of course such eggs will not produce chickins. When chickens are wanted, the roosters must of course run with the hens. Cultitator.
