our leader shall be informal of it through the medium ot 'the Further. "Maoy persons suppose that one breed of hogs is as good as another, and therefore pay no attention to the matter. That this Mi great error is easily shown. We have seen souie hogs that would eat more corn in the process of fattening than their carcases would sell for, and others that rentiired no other fppdincr during summer

ce tit. in tavor ot the small ottal breed, itlie difference in cost ot fattening is at least 'Jo if not 50 per cent. more. Thee are fa- ts which no not admit ot a doubt, and we believe they at e nutom us . Why then do farmers not obtain the line breeds? That is the question. Then; is another advantage on the tine breeds thai tm.it not tie ov ci looked-- the bacon is woitti 'JO per cent, nun than that of the large honed coarse fleshed biceds- Indeed the quality of the bacon ot the fine breeds is so supeuor to that ol the coaie, that it does not seems to be the same species oi 'animal.

Isaac Simon, an Indian of the Marshpee tii!eis becoming while. He is about six'y five years of age, and we understat' ' w a- born of parents who had no m xtuie of w hite or African blood. He w.ts as datk colored as any of his tribe till about thtee years ago, when several small fcpots of white appeared on his legs and arms. These have since extended, and cover a large part of his body. The spois are of a pallid white without any tinge of red. He enjoys good health the change of his color was not atteuiied with any sensible disease. Such instances as the above rarelv oc cur. Mr Jefferson, in his notes on Virginia, mentions several instances in which negroes, though black themselves, had white children called Albinos. The following are the circumstances in which all the individuals agree: "They are ot a pallid cadaverous white, unlinged with red, without any colored spots or seams; their hair of the same kind of white, short, coarse, and curled as it of the negro; all of them are well formed, strong, healthy, perfect m their senses, except that of sight, and born of parents who had no mixture of white blood :' He mentions one instance in which a freckled Albino had a white child by a black inau; but it died at the age of a few weeks. He also makes mention of a negro, born black, of black parents, on whose chin when a boy, a white snot appeared. This continued to increase till he became a man, by I which time it extended over his chin, lips, one cheek, the under jaw, and ueck on that side. liZMitablt Jour. GORMANDISING. At Tabalak I liad a pretty good peci mn of the appetite ot" a child, (whose .age. as 1 u i ktstood from the steersman, who spoke some Englith and less French) did not exceed five years 1 had observ ed the child crawling on the fluor, and --craping up with b;s thumb the tallow gr a-e which fell from a lighted candle, and 1 iruviued in surprise whether it pio cec-ded fi.-m hunger or '.iking of the fat. ! was told from neither, but simply from me naiui iri i'uii j;kuii ami i onotj-i ot eatit'.i' w h' ne er the e i' food, and never - - 7 i i-. i .i. iii. f permitting any tnin t!i it can be eaten, to bt; lost. Igave the child a candle made ot the most impure tallow a second and thud nnd all were devoured with avidity. The steersman then give him ; several pounds of sour fn zen butter; fhis also he iminvdiately consumed; lastly, a 'large piece, of yellow soap; all went the ame road: but ns 1 was now ennvmced j - -- - .1 . . . 1 1 1 1 . mat me cniid vvotji.i continue to gorge a As to the statement ot what a man can m.s u uie siaiemeni or wnai a man can or w ,,l eat, either as t qunlity or quanfity, I am afraid it would be quile incrediand meagre looking men, they will be come pei iectiy pot neiiiea. l neir stom ach must be differently formed to ouis, or it would be impossible for them to drink off at a draught, as they really do, their tea and soup scalding hot, (so hot at least, that an European w uuld have ditii cuity in even sipping at it) without the lea-t inconvenience. 1 have seen three ot these gluttons consume a rein deer at one meal; nor are they nice as to the choice of parts; nothing beii:$ la-t, not even the conlent ot the b.Afi-. which, with the aid of f:t and bic t, ,re couvtr'.td iiUo black puddings. For an instance in ro-dirrnal i.tn uf this, no doubt , extraoidinai y statement. I shall refer to the voyages of the Rus3ian adrmral bautchetl. "Ao sooner," he says, had they stopped to rest or spend the night, than they had their kettle ca the tire, which they never left until they pur-

Mied their journey, spending the interval tor rest in eating, and, in consequence of no sWp, were drowsy ell the next day."" I he admiral also adds, "That such extra, ordinary verocity was never attended with any ill effects, although they made a prac

tice cu uevour.ng, at one meal, what would have killed any other person. The laborers," the admiral says, had an allowance of four poods, or one-hundred and forty-four English pounds of fat. and seventy-two pounds of rye dour, yet in a fortnight they complained of having no thing to eat. Not crediting the fact, the lakuts said that one of them was accustomed to consume at home, in the sdhco of a day, or twenty four hours, the hind quarter ol a large ox, twenty pounds ul tat, and a proportionate quantity of melted buffer for his drink . The appearance of the man not justifv ing the assertiou, the admiral had a mind to try hi9 gormaa dizing powers, and for that purpose he had a thick porridge of rice boiled down with three pounds of butter, weighing together twenty eight pounds; and allha the glutfon had already breakfa$tal, yet did he sit down to it with great eagerness, and consumed the whole without stirring from the spot; and, except that his slomach betrayed more than an ordinary fullness, he betray ed no sign of molestatioa or injury, but would have been ready to renew his gluttony the following da" So much for the admiral, on the truth of whose account 1 place perfect reliance. Cockraiuft Jouruey through Russia, "SELF-MADE MEN-" We are forcibly reminded of the remark of the Hon. Tiustam Eu'rces, at the Town Housp.hy an acticle in the last number of the quarterly Register, under the title of -elf made men.' "I have been," said he, -a farmer 1 have been a mechanic. My hands, fellow townsman, were as hard asyouis. Rut God knows, I feel not the more humble. 1 yield ho mage to no man, and humble myself before none but such as art my superiors io knowledge, in worth, and in talents." The Quarterly gives the names of nearly thirty of the most eminent men EuroDe baa ever produced, who have risen frrtn the most humble lineage and occupation to stations of honor and renown. Englifh ano Fiench history and that not remote. iurnisti us witii names sufficient to swell the ligt an hundred fold. And in our country, how distinguished the catalogue of self made meu! Franklin, Rittenhouse, Sherman, West. Fulton, and mimber!e!& others of a bygone age'--and at ihe .resent day, how many do ou see who hae been the "ai (iricers of their owo foitur.en Thousands who would have looked with pity on Ihe penny le.s farmer hov, have listened to hi eloquence in the nat,ona councils, to which his tab nls, a 'siduvand integrity, had raised him. t is the mind tht makes the body rich' and ihe self-made men come before their fcllovr citizens with confidence. They hvc studied in a severe school fhey ha?C woo lor themselves the reputation which they possess. Such are practical public men. Such are the men for the people. They hoa-t of no long line of ancestral dignnanes They are of the People they enter into their views, their feelings and their interests. Such men are Clay and Webster, and other prominent public rntfti of the Union. A Fi.W'iUbAR FACT. 'The rtier .Uees' ay John Hi.-..
