Tte Scottish Fisheries. The fisheries of Scotland constitute her most valuable aud important interest, farntsbing rui doyrncut to s large number of people wh( would be unable to maintain themselves on Scotia’s rugged bills wero it not for i his prolific, source of wealth. From an article in the lest number of Blackwood' r Magazine we learn (list there are nearly ilcvcn thousand boats engaged in the Scotih fisheries, giving permanent employ met t to about forty thousand fishermen* besides occupying as coopers, gutters and la jorers, nearly thirty thousand other persons. It is said that about teq thousand Highlanders pass across from west toeasrduriug the continuance of the autumnal fishery, in which they find, for the time being, their sole refuge from das titmion. ] t is estimated thatfrom seven to ten thoi sand Highland women of the poorest da: s, are likewise beneficially employed in f wiling and packing herrings. The amount of capital invested in the fisheriee is ibout £2,730,000, The, value of material i alone, in boats, lines, nets, Ac., £580,300. The value of the herring fishery for L855 is estimated at one million poundi sterling. The amount of cod and ling (s species of codj taken in 1854 was 173,8)2 hundred weight'.: Large quantities < f herrings are exported to the continent < f Europe, 338,SCO barrels being shipper thence in 1855. The fish are cured andjml op with mucli care, under the direction of officers appointed bv (he governiisen , who place upon them the crown bran 1, So great is the confidence reposed in he skill and integrity of these officers, that barrels so marked pass from hand to band without examintion, into the very he wt of Europe. Tne who e control of the'management of the fUbe ios, so far as legal rules and regulations are concerned, is vested in a hoard of co mnisiioners, who are required ulso to see hat the fish aud the barrels in which they are packed are. of the legal standard si; e. This is done by the establishment of a police-force,-who are'distributed alo jg tho coast, which is divided into 22 dif tricts.- The men composing this dcpailn tent are selected for their practical acquai itance with the fisheries; and their fitnesi for the duties required , of them. They have proved a great advantage to the :rade, and have given to it a high reputa ion. The hard, r fisherman who brave the terrors of the tea are sometimes overtaken by storms i -Inch destroy them and their vessels by t io hundred, carrying sorrow mid distres; into many an humble cot. During a-gnlo on thelOibof August, IS 48, there were lost one hundred lives, and one hundred and twenty-four boats, valued at £70(0, were either .lost or damaged.

Experimental farmers bars long urged the importance, and even necessity* of chopping or grinding bay, as well ta other food, for cattle and horse#. The laxy diones have had a hearty laugh over the idea, and called it "Book Farming.” .Now the theory of chopping, and grindlog food, is based on a principle which lies at the foundation of animal physiology.

A niece of Mra. Agatha's {she was a maiden lady, and only "Mra.” ■by courtesy) iris the wife of a coon try clergyman, and one of (fast lad's eons, a inedical student, came to Nearford to be inmate of Mn>. Agatha's whilst b« "improved" himself under Mr. Dicks, an 'eminent surgeon, attached to Nearfordln* firmary* Mra. Agatha, in correspondence With his parents, had stipulated, before she would admit him. far bis observing certain comluiouB—that be would never smoke, would, never speak to her two maid-servants, except m her prescues, would always be in ly tea o'clock at night and in Led by half-past. To all of which Mr.,Tliontai Elliot vowed obedience, aud said they were the exact rules ho had laid down for himself. So Mrs. Agatha consented (o receive him, and he arrived. A dashing young mon of twenty-one, showy in dress, free in manner, but the pink of quid propHetyin the presence of Mrs. Agatha. - lie speedily became popular in Kearford, ami Mrs. Agatba grew intensely proud of him. ' "My dear Thomas," she exclaimed to him, one morning at breakfast, "what an extraordinary smell of tobacco*!moke pervades the house when you are iu it.” "It does, ma'am; it’s highly disagree* able. Nearly makes me sick sometimes." "Hut what ran it proceed from, Thomas?" pursued Mrs. Agatha, sniffing ‘very much over her muffin. "You assure me ’you donut smoke.” ' ’ ' ■*Tniiokr!" echoed Mr.Tom—"I touch, & filthy cigart It comes from mv clothes;” "How docs it get into them?’! wondered Mrs, Agaiha.

Now. a cow wpnta one-thirtieth of her own weight in hay a day, to keep her in good order; and we may thus calculate the amount of labor required to masticate tha food, and fit it.for the stomach. The labor of chopping, or grinding twenty-five pounds of dry hay a day, is no small item. The excessive labor is performed by one sot of minder—the jaws; but, by sympathy, effects all the other muscles; causes the blood to circulate quicker; the breath faster, the consumption of food greater; and still tho growth of the animal is retarded.

Tb* Policy of Advertising.

The following article is from the Hot • ritlurp Telegraph, and it embodies a few hints, which we commend to thu particular attention of business men. The merchant or storekeeper, who advertiia judiciously and liberally, pursues one of the most direct roads to fame and fortune.— This is especially the case at the present time, when newspapers are read so universally. Goods aud wares, to be known, must be advertised. A new invention, to be appreciated, must be described through (be medium of the press. And so throughout every phase of traffic and business. By advertising, we do not mean for a day or week, bat regularly and systematically. The cost is considerable, but no investment pays bettor. This, moreover, is the experience ofall who have tried the plan in a libeial spirit; Adveiitibisq.— The Heading Journal says it is difficult to persuade some men of the value of advertising, although the immense fortunes which have been made by it, in (ids country and England, within the last ten or fittoen years, are evidenced by the palatial structures which have been erected by the shrewd and fortunate advertisers, in Philadelphia, New- York, London, and other cities. It is said that the average weekly receipts of the London Timet, for advertising alone, amount (o 830,000, and they have frequently gone op to 840,000. This shows that a just appreciation of advertising ispossessed by the Londoners. The New York Tribune, in an article on litis subject, rays that nowhere is advertising carried on to so great an extent as in England. Professor Holloway’s Pills are advertised to the amount of 8150,000 annually; Moses & Son pay 850,000; 850,000 is aUo paid by Eowland for the Macassar Oil, Ac.; 850,000 by Dr. I)e dough for his Cod Liver Oil; Heal A Son pays 830,000 per year for advertising their bedsteads and bed furniture, and Ebon Nicholl*, a tailor, advertises to tba amouut of 820,000,

'Hark! husbl listen, will yonl There's Dick's voice, as I'm alivel* Tbe metamorphosis was like mtgic. Certain overcoats of the pupils which lay in a heap in a corner of the room, were raised, and tbe pewter pots hidden under them; slops of beer; rather prevalent, were rubbed dry with handkerchiefs; cigars and pipes, all alight, were thrust into sidepockets; as sitting places, were abandoned; aud when Mr. Dicks, M. R. C. S., entered, every student presented the appearance of sober industry; some with the operating knives, some buried deep in surgical books of reference. If fortune ever favored any ven In resume layer of bets, Tom Elliot was certainly oae tbit day. On bis return borne in the afternoon, he found Mrs, Agatha Needham cutting most extraordinary capers. Sbe was evidently in a desperate state of excitement and anger. Tom's conscience took alarm; he believed something bad come ont about himself, and I tit as if ci cold bath bad been dashed over him.

"Talking to, ma'am? 0,1 remember; he asked about his umbrella, I think be must hare left it at (he infirmary, or al Mr. Dicks’.”

"Asking a necessary question I will look over,” eaid Mra. Agatba, "but ahould be ever show a disposition to speak with you upon indifferent subjects, you will come off straight to me, and rcpoit him, Rachel; far it is not allowed,” "Very well, ma’am.” From tbe above specimen of Mr. Tom Elliot, it may be wondered bow be contrived to remain an inmate of Mrs. Agatha Needham’s, and continue in that lady’s good graces. It was a marvel to Tom himself, and be was wont to say, in that favorite resort, the dissecting-room, that though be bad got on the ancient maiden'a blind sidcs-he bad more trouble than enough to keep himself there. One day sundry of the infirmary pupils were assembled in tbe above-mentioned choice retreat,; A looker-on might have described them as-being rather "jolly,” There were seven of them; four had short pipes in theirmomhs, and the three others cigars, and they were smoking away with all their might, Mr. Tom Elliot being amongst them; while some pewter pots of beer stood on the table, "How did bid Moss come out last night?” inquired one, with a shock head of very fed hair, ns be sat on a deal table and kicked his feet against a neighboring waif.' "Old Moss" being a botanist, who was then giving I.eclurcs in the city, which the infirmary pupils were expected to attend.

if a machine was invented to grind hay, the ground article would approximate, in value, to unbound oats, in producing fat and muscle. Chopping 1 bay and stalks is valuable just in proportion os it approximates to grinding, and relieves the animal of the labor of grinding it; An animal fed on ground, or minced food, may perform' an amount of labor equal to grinding it fit for digestion, and fat as fast as another which docs - not labor, but grinds his own food. Prematurely grey whiskers and beard, while the hair is still black, show the relative amount of labor performed by the jaws and the head.— Ohio Farmtr.

‘Dear aunt, whatever in the matter?' he ventured to ask, finding sho did not speak, and thinking silence might look like selfconfession. “You are surely not taken with St. Vitus';dance in the legs?’ 'Never was sbch s thinglicard of! never was such a wicked act perpetrated! Rachel —my bonnet and velvet mantle. Thomas nephew, don't stand peering at my legs. It's not in them, it's in uy mind.' Mr. Thomas sat down, completely cowed. What on earth had come to light? The latch-key — or kissing Rachel—or smoking in 1m bed*room at night—or had that sexton ? 'By all that’s awful, that must bo it!* reasoned Tom. The bungling fool has mistaken me, and sent the thing home, and she and the glrU have turned Bluebeard's wlfo, and opened the box.* Tom's fuco began to stream down. Whatever could bo do?

Small or Largo Potatoes for Seed.

The comparative value of targe or small potatoes for planting, is n disputed point. —Onr belief is, that well ripened teed Is necessary, whether it be large or small, Small potatoes us a general thing, in good seasons, are the last settings; and when' gathered, are immature. If the season in which they are used for seed, prove a wet one, they will grow freely, and often produce as much as better matured reed; but, if the season prove dry, the tops wilt be slender, and the produce only "small potatoes, and few iu a hill, ’* in the Irith Farmr's OattUe, a Mr. Dixon gives the result of his experience in planting large and small seal potatoes, the past season. The large potatoes selected, weighed about half a pound each, planted exactly a yard apart, each way; product, a few pounds short of eight tona to the acre. The small seed, either whole or cut, in the usual way, yielded seven tons per acre. The samples from the largo.seed, were decidedly the best.

Large sums are paid in this country, also, for advertising; some bouses in Now York set-aside ten, fifteen, twenty and twenty-five thousand dollars annually for advertising, and this is continued from year to year,, because it pays.—Walking the streets of Philadelphia, a few weeks ago, a friend called our attention to a beautiful building constructed of white stone brought from France. .. ‘That building/ said he, ‘is a portion of the proceeds of an ample fortune derived from tndicious advertising. ‘ .We know men in this city who hava built up a large business from almost nothing but advertising, while houses in the same business, with everything in their favor, have dwindled into comparative obscurity. We know of instances of large sums being made during the last year, within a few weeks, by advertising, when, without the aid of the press nothing could have been done. We lay it as an axiom, that the money spent injudicious advertising by a business man invariably yields four fold, sooner or later, and in numerous in-dances, one hundred or one thousand fold. Some men advertise for a short time after they commence business, sod think thatjt.il sufficient; others intermit advertising afur they hare a flourishing business by its aid,—This is a great mistake.' From the, moment a house ceases to advertise, however large its reputation and standing, it begins to decline. —The changes are rapid in this country, and the public mind is so constantly occupied by new applicants for its favors and its attention, that to be oat of tbs papers, whera ererybody seeks for information on ovary subject, is to be forgotten. The j press is daily becoming more and more • -necessity,, and its usefulness ta an advertising medium is as constantly increasing".—-No man is wise, or just to himself, who . undertaker to do business-without availing himself ©f its advantages. - .,

"The governors of tWinfirmary ought t« In* idporte-i to the lord-lieutenant,?* cried Mr» t Agatha,, warmly. **I never heard of any I Ling so shameful.

"What should bring them into the dissecting* mom: unless—ahem!—they are carried ihere?” .'•Then is it the doctor*!’'

Origin of Jealousy.

When Adim and Eye were in Paradise, they were .fir some time a most happy couple. Ad im was in the habit of going of evenings t ) Heaven to pray. The devil, who had i tudied the female mind, and knew its wei k points thought the introduction of je ilousy miglit bo a good foundation where on to build some mischief. So he went t>> Eve, and after propitiating her by well-l Inicd flattery, ha enquired after Adam, h vo replied by informing him where herhui band.won gone. At this the devil smiled incredulously.but said noth , ing; and ever when our first mother praised him, to ( ell her the ; moaning, of his smite, he re used to answer for a lime, feigning that he would not hurt her feelings or Injun: the reputation of her friend. This conduct was only additional evidence of the weaku’is of the female heart, for by so acting ho wrought strongly on her curiosity as well os her suspicion, till at last, haring worked her up to a state of mind capabh of receiving any lies he might choost to tell her, be informed her, that Adam w as deceiving her, and paying bis addresses to another lady. At this Eve smiled scornfully, saying—‘How can this be, for 1 know there is no woman created but myself?’ The devil again smiled, with uu expression of pity, f ‘Alas 1 poor thing]" said he, *ifl show you another women, will that undecaive yon?’ ' '. She assented, and he showed her a mirror! Eye was, ofcourse, completely deceived, though sb i thought herself undeceived.

Patents on Agricultural Implements. —For tho week ending February lOih 18* 5/, there were fi fly* eight pa ten la iuued from the United Slates Patent Office.

Not only can al•most every species of faitu work bo performed now in a greatly improved manner, hut the same labor can ho done in one third of the timo required to do it a few years ago, - and yet every day bring! to light some new machine, calculated still to aid in tins, most important of all industrial pursuits.

Shoeing Houses.— A writer in tho Farmer's Cabinet, an English paper, describes a mode of shoeing horses different from that usually practiced in this country, which appears to be worthy ol consideration. The difference consists simply in driving tho naila home before instead of after twisting them off; then beat tho twist down close to tho hoof, and fife smooth, "but not deep with a view to rasp the twist.” By' twisting after driving home, a rivet, as well as a clinch, it secured.
