The growth of trees thus pruned, be fays, far exceed? that of the winter pruned. He commenird the practice in l'5-o", when bis trees were eix feet bih ; and in the autumn of ItiZ'J, they were twenty feet. He bns tliis year summer pruned 100 acres of yoiiinj plantations, whirh in August wera stated la be remarkably tin ii in' und health v.

To prevent Dugs in Peas. Immediately before planting, put the peas in a tub, and pour very hot water upon them; keep stirring for one or two minutes, and have cold water at hand to pour on, suflicient to cover them one or two inches leaving it more than Mood warm for one or two hours before planting, in which time they will swell considerably, and come up much sooner; and the bugs will be destroyed and found floating on the top of the water. In fact, I have very few, and verily believe, if the plan were universally adopted, we should hear no more about buggy peas; but if here and there a slovenly neighbor should neglect this rule, the flying weevel would pass from his field Ij those of his careful neighbors, as ready as the. miller from the neglected apple and cherry trees, to the better attended ones of his neighbors, and deposite the eggs of the caterpillar for the next I vie to fatten IIgt The New-York Farmer fives the following directions, as the fruits of cs perience. them pure water to drink, give them no water nt alInot :l (lrop ,lut instea( ,iercof, give ,iem plenty of potatoes; which while they ?reat!ly aid the corn in tatteniny, quench the thirst, and to which they po whenever they ?et dry by The preventive clearly is, to give the cattle water free from leeches. Lex. Lite!. , M . , , l Mr Dwnht .J the Acv Jaiy Advertiser. ii'. ) To JWy old frient York Dai r.Aic .,...Dr.., "-. April 5th, 1 33 1 . I suppose you'll be all pretty considerable struck up when you come to see where : I now be, and so I'll jist tell you in as short order as possible, how it come about. Ever since I wrote you that last letter about the Rakoon Story the Gineral telled me. and the Old Hen storv I telled him, the folks about the General haint civ me no time to eat or sleep, and I have had niirh upon the hull Government to beat . i !off; but so long as I had the Gineral on my side. I didn t care nothm about it. But totherday the Gineral he began to hike in the wind a leetle, and this was a j bout the cause cu't. lie and me was sittin j talkin over matters alone, and firein red hot shot at the oppo-iiion folks, and especially at Squire Riddle, when I telled the Gineral, says I Gineral, its weil enuf for us to talk so among folks who come lo see us, for it is the natur of people to give one credit for honesty at least, though he is wrong, if he only seems warm and determined, jest as you was when you cut down that old man's Bee tree, but says I rnv slate dont tell me that the present trouble all about the country is owia to the Bank crampin folks. And with that I reached down rny slate and 1 showed the Gineral. Now says I, here, we see that the Bank actually has been lendin out mo ney since we took the deposites away from it, that it had lent afore that time. The Gir.eral he looked over the figures, and ure enutf there it was, why says he, Ma jor, how is this? wh it on earth then, says ne, are the people grumblm at: All our folks tell me, sivs the Gineral, that Rid dle is cra.npin the people all over creation, and here now you show as clear as day light, th it the Bmk h lint screwed al all. And with lhat the Gineral he began to count on his fillers, and though he can sometimes figure out a pretty considerable tult sum lhat way, this puzzled hitn am i-

zmiy. oo in rignis, says ne, tu j r "im re-jthenis the cause of all this trouble? Well, sjys I, Gineral, I suppose we shall

know pritty soon. There ia a cog out somewhere say I- and as tlu Seodte i

nverhawlin the mill, perhaps they'll find on't; und to he got up and made a considit, and let ua know. Ar.d the words warn't : era Me of a speech about it, and wound more than out of rny meuib, when in come up by sayiu the Cheer had never been Kindle and i'dair lookin as though theyicall'd on to decide on a more important had jest ben snaked through a gimldet ' pint, and that tho' the Cheer could givo

hole, and thry telled the Giueral that tb.e benate had jest past Clfys resolutions, It won't do no good to tell what followed, but the Giueral was hoppin mad, and il j was more than an hour afore he got thro1; alattin things about. And as it w as about the time when folks would be coming- to visit the gineral, I jest stepped out to tell em they must call agin, for the Gineral was hard at work in 'Cabinet Kounsel." When I got hack I fnnd the Gineral with pritty nigh all the steam Mowed off, and them other two critters writing -ome thin to come out in the Globe next day. I telled the Gineral right oil" now savs I Gineral, wc better keep an eye on what j we say in print, for we have trouble etmf with what we say here to folks but says I, if we go to abusin the Senate, and put it in print too, the people may take a stand agin us and puzzle us hcreatler most ptagily. And with that the Giueral got his steam up in a rniuit and he telled me if that was my notion I better p:ck up and quit for the time had come now for ev ery man to take his own side, and if 1 thought the Senate had more wi-dom than he had I must clear out. Well savs I Gineral, had'nt we best call the hull Cab-! inet together on tliis business . Cabinet! says the Gineral, what more do I want? and with that he turned and pinted to Kcndle antl Bl.nir, and giv me :i look a black as thunder. Well says I that,senuf and as I had kept my bundle ready to move for some days past, all I had to do was to stick my flate iu it. and poke my ax handle threw the upper knot, and I slung the whole consaru over rny shoulder and was hick agin in the Cabinet afore you could say Jack Robinson. Now says 1 Gineral, 1 and ycu are goin to quit but afore I go I should like lo tell you a story and the best on't is, it ainta long one, say9 1. And so I tell'd the Gineral that snake story you've hearn me tell alore. How 1 was once walkin in a field down there to Downingville, and hearin a clatter, and seein no one, but to rights finding it all come from a big black snake more than half a rod long-, the tail quarlin with the head about takin the lead: and sayin the head had led long enuf, and the tail ought to try its turn a epell and so the head give up and let the tail have his way and I follow'd on to see how things would work thnt way aodsoafier goin agin the scales a spell, and makiu things grit considerable, the tail tried to go threw a stone fence, and jittin jam'd. riggled and twi-ded and screwed and could'nt go on; anil the head of the snake wanted to know what was liie m-itter, and why it rlid'nt go threw, and that he had gone threw the same fence twenty times; the tail got a little ratty, and a little asham'd, and did'nt like to tell. When I got si far in rn story, the Gin eral who had been all the while siltin and lookin right at the lire, turnM round and gin me a fh'gy inquirin look, and 1 stopp'd short off well, savs he. what was the Uendott't? whv, savs J, Gineral I haint Mimenoiv t-, telfyou, l ot says 1, the c mpt( rj J)eslo.v rtm ... . . . ' . . uitti mat I tnaite me umere.i a rase ramnet bow, and I walked strait out of (he white hous;? feelin pritty much, I suppose, like a good many more afore me who have had their sav and then cleared out. As soon as 1 got outside, I was a leetle slump ed to know which way to steer I had some bread r.nd cheese in my pack, hut wanted a nlace to -o to foe the m'.r.f and there was so many Committee folks ! 'in Washington, every tavern was chuck . . lull but jist then I see the ihg go up at the capital, and thinks I I il go there and !

try my luck, and up I went but owiu to J Whereas consolidation is known to exmy being stopp'd so often on the way, by Jist at one end of Fennsyl vany avenue and folks all wautin to know what had hap--the "conservative principles' sometimes

pen'd, by the time I reach'd the capital all j Congress knew it, and all parties was in i

a takin about it. I went first io the iJou?e I Therefore, licsolven1, That until the of Representatives, and 1 let em know ! Constitution shall be distinctly and clearly there that all I wanted was jist to be al-I expounded, it is safest for the Major to low'd lo stop there over night; and then ; lalve up his right's lodging j.ist halfway came sich knockin of noses Mr. Adams j bet ween these two extremes, spoke for more than half an hour in favor ; The Resolution was then put and carof havin a cot put up forme right oil ried, 23 to 13. A Committee was then

Mr. Cambreiing Irom lurk City said it was altogether a great party question, and must he handled carefully, and he wanted time to consider on't. 1 ask'd Mr.' Lawrence, another New York member, if he could'nt give me a lift--iirst he thought he would, and he pick'd his teeth on one side, and said he'd jist see Ins j friends about it when he r t hack, I , friends about rt--whe;i he g t found he was pickin teeth on lolhcr side, md said he was alraid it might not do. seein he was now a candidate for Mayor up there in Neiv York, and he must go with his party. And so after nigh about all the speak ers got a chance, and some on em wasjint begintiin to speak a second time, Mr. Beurdsley s;iid '-if Congress, and Credit and Banks, and Canals all pensh'd he'd vote agin it;" and to cut the matter short, he mov'd the previous question and Mr. Vanderpool fiom Kinder hook (w ho I iho't was the one th it wrote lhat Dutch letter to me) he sai 1 it was till a "hum bug," and lie seconded the motion. When thev come to coon', over the. names, there was) a tie, and the speaker hud Vj on tic the huil 1

000 reasons right off, for the vote he was

about to give, yet he would give hut one and that one was, that 1 he Mayor could not have a bed there he knew the Bank and Diddle, had a hand in sendin the Major there, and that was enuf for him; and so th Cheer decided that thp Major must fore his bundle out. Well, thinks I, that was a pretty tight vote, any how, and I went over to the Senate Chamber. There they were all at it too. as soon as 1 walk'd in, 31 r. Van Buren ea'l'd Mr. King of Alabama, to take, his place, and 1 could on git .1 glimpse on him now and then, r. dodgin about, and no critter could tell w hether lie was tickl'd or not. Mr. Grundy wanted to have the hull matter refer'd to his Committee on the Post Office. Mr. Clayton said he would'nt agree to th't, for that Committee would never report in creation, and when they did, perhaps they'd find the Major's name eciatch'd cut and some one else written in thd place on Mr. Calhoun said he was glad the Msjor had come there, the '-Conservative J principle," says he, is now gcttin to bo j better understood States should stick to it w ith reference to the General Gov't Counties to States Townships to Coun (jee Families to Townships and Individuals to Families so that philosophically and metaphysically, and, above all, politically speaking, the Major had as good a right to use the Senate Chamber, as the Gineral Government, and here says he is the hutt end of my notion? of nullification, and I hope the Major and every man will now fully understand me nt one end of the avenue stands the white house, and at the other end the Senate Chamber. " Consolidation" there " Conservative here and he wound up by sayin that for his part he was ready to contribute his chair and de-k for the Major to spread his bed on. Mr. Benton was just goin to begin, and I was about swingia my pack on my shoulder, for when he gets hold ha hangs on like a tooth-ache, and would a talk'd all night and so they call'd ques tioo like all natur, and he took his seat. Mr. Webster he got up next, and was just agoin to tackle on and take a pull upoo M r. Calhoun's Conservative notions but he hadn't gone far when he took out his w atch and seein it w as gettin late, he said he would not take up the constitutional part of the question for if he did, and seein that he must sift the hull principle of consolidation and conservative notion?, the Major might lose his night's lodgins, and 6o he moved that the application, a long with the Major, his ax and bundle, be laid on the table for that night, and if the table warn't big enuf he'd push his'n alongside on't; then come a leetle kind of a tu-sle, and pritty nigh the hull on 'eai had something to say. When Mr. Claygot a rhance he is a master hand you know, io quicttin matters when they git in a snail be said there was no doubt n large majority of the Senate was in favor ! f g'in the Major a place to lay his head, prMt difficulty was to decide i whether it would be an act growin out of i ;. : . :. i . i. : : of the conservative principle, or the princi ple ot consolidation, so ably stated by the gentleman from South Carolina; and as regarded the constitutionality of the measure, he was desirous of hearing the gentleman from Massachusetts at an early hour the next day, and he had no doubt I that gentleman would ably expound it and that he for one was sure he should ""t differ with him but, says he, the Ma:j" ants a bed, and its now almost bed .: ii t r . i . nw i "me, unu i uicrtmre, tays ue, cuer ma uxiowing resolution : call'd and unjust' v cail'd nullifications, at the other end. appointed to measure the Avenue, and reported that Gad shy's Hotel was just half way. The Senate then adjourned, and Mr. Clay came round and tell'd me thnt as his Resolution had got me in this difficulty, he con,u-. do jg, ,h:)n vx,t a bcd fof me jrl ,(U ovvn Jojj,, ,j j,t a jlne wilh . :ci., i .f .t.. i ; GawsbyV; and I might sleep there in wel come, liil the constitutional points was all i settled, and so here I be now, sleep at Mr. Clay's house and knock about through the day as weil as I cm, and most of the time io the Striate Chambeis, where 1 find upon the hull, I've got a good thumpio uiaj irity, and afore Congiess goes to hom.e, I calculate the vote in tother house will change too; a good many there I find diakin in their shoes already, and as soon as they see your elections and the Virgii.ny elections go as I hope they will, I calculate on giltin a two-thud vote m ev'ry pint sight the folks who have got the Giueral in keeping now.
