Pork at five cents per pound would give 12 3 1 cents per bu-h cl for the apples, and 1 cent per pound for the meal, and (he potatoes only amount to 10 11 cents per bushel. Feeling en-i tirely satisfied myself, I thought it might! be of some benefit to communicate it to j other, and recommend those who havej orchards not to cut them down, but rathet j cultivat more, for if we can raise the gieat staple, pork, from our orchards, is n not worth Hlleudme to? or instead ol j making cider for one dollar per barrel, which will not pay the expense of milking? You may also obtain jour fuel from j our orchard, for bo orchard well pruned, will afford enough to boil the apples. Hogs are more Imul of sour ap pies than of sweet, when boiled; and I consider them worth fully as much, though doubtless th nvect are worth the mosi Leo raw. PAIN WING ATE. HoUo-jidl, Oih mo. 'JC34.

Several slaves were at diiVeirn; times oveiheard, whilst engaged in seciet conversation relative to the proposed plot.

were regarded as best tuited to such an enterpl ise the LolJ, the sagacious, the desperate. Arms and ammunition have been procured, and deposited in various secret places, and all other arrangements effected which were deemed ttseutial lo the adoption of incipient operations. The publication of the Murrel pamphlet is understood to have precipitated the attempted execution of lhe plot, uml lo have induced earlier hostile movements, by seve tal months, than was originally contemplated. So far as we have been informed, the scheme of operations ngieed on was as follows. On (he night of the fourth of July, an attack was to be made on lhe lown of Vernon, in Madison county, at a lime when most of its white population would be asleep. The w hites, 1 bus la ken by surprise, were to be indiscriminately butchered. All the iimmuniiinti and aim. uf lhe town weie to be sei.td, and the whole force of lhe insuigents as rapidly as possible, was to be tllterted against lhe lown of Livingston, where similar proceedings were to be had. l'y the lime Ibis could be accomplished, il wa? expected lhe whole body ol the while population would be over come with panic, and be constrained to lly Irom the; scene of tenor; and every Mark in the
count i y able lo wield the weapons ol warlate, would be found arrayed around the insurgent standatd. This nimy of incendiaries w as (hen to maii'h upon the town ot (.'lintnn, turning, sacking, and laving desolate the whole country a they advanced. Hy the lime the lierliuclion o!

A j precipitous man ii was men to i n mane lo the county ol LI a it oi ne, along t he ski i Is ol Waneo, and the whole counuy up on ihe liver bank was lo be ravaged and , inundated with lhe blood ot men and women anil children.

man printer in as much as they have but little relish for literary pursuits, or intellectual exercises. On the other hand, he is mortified lo find Ihal the progressive in
lluence ol biistnciatic feeling in the higher circles form a barren to his free participation m the amusements of the re lined society not however on account of degradation which many have attached to his name, but merely because ihe piofession lo which he belongs partakes some what of ihe character ol handicialt. Whilst, therefore, his inclinations do not pet nut him to reek Ihe companionship of the fit st, his independence ami his pride deter him from becoming an unwelcome associate with the latter, who fancy, at least, that they have heen endowed with some peculiar pei feci ions of character ; and thus the fiaternity of journeymen printers are rendered an almost detached class ol men. Their situation is nearly assimilated to certain sul stunces in the natural world, the qualities of which are to identified and vaue, that naturalists quarrel among themselves whether they should fie classed in the animal or the vegetable kingdom. The journeyman printer is not only a comparative hermit in regurd lo his intercourse with so:iety. but in advanced lite he is not possessed ol those local attachments and local prejudices w Inch insensibly tw ine them stives around the feelings of others. Although he is not absolutely forgetful ol ihe scenes of boyhood and youih--al though mrmuty often reverts to the en dearm tills of his native land, and the kind r ed spii its whose eyes beamed on him w lib tender ness in depai led years--yel, a long commerce with the wnild, and the variety of scenes through which he has passed, render those scenes less vivid, and those feelings less intense, lie gradually becomes a iiiizeti of the world, unnt eventually, his local feelings to mllu ence his opinions or control his actions Those pnjuon cs being annihilated , in a ' egree , he remains a passive spectator of t he d r ama ol !i le, com men! ing aini r ea soning upon all which pas-es by lurn in ihe gr eat panorama openly rensu i ing thai which is un.iiniuhle and unjust ; and l-ohtly j nil vnca ling the cause nl tiuth and virtue.)

It most unexpectedly becomes our duty to inform our readers lhat within a fewdays past, severe! persons in lhe country , were suspected for bavingcounterlnt money, and for having passed it.

terfeit ten dollar bill, und one of tha basest, ton, lhat we have ever seen. The description answered to exactly for lhat of Thomas Maxw ell, living tbnut H miles from this place. ,tl, at be was in mediately apprehended, ami on examination contested lhat he had nol only passed that bill, but others, knowing them at lhe same lime to b tpunou-. Ilis own plea is that himself and John Fleming (m tha same nighbot hood.) were recently pur suaded into (his open and unjustified tinhonesty. Fleming whs then arrested,
and from him and .Maxwell, the names of others engaged in the same debased roguery we obtained, two of' whom (Richard and Andrew Wilsuns, biotherf,) were forthwith seized, and brought to account for their nefarious conduct. The two Wilsons having given bonds of the penal sum of 2,000 dollars each, for their ap pearance nt couit. Flemings is in tha County jail; and Maxwell, if we are correctly iuformel, ha entereJ into bondi of (he penal sum of two hundred dollars, for his appearance at court, merely as a uilness against the others. Harvey McGarland who it seem is an old hand at the busiuess, had before the first writ wai issued eloped from the county , in consequence no doubt, of some suspicions that had gone out. His guilt has been incontestably proved and we have no doubt but he has with him at this time, a quantity of spurious money, principally bank bill it it supposed. As it appears from the best information that he has been the ri s leader, we hope be will shortly be apprehended in his career of defraud he is aged about 25 or 30 ears dai kisii coloured hair is about five feet 7 or u inches high, well proportioned has h business like and sprightly appearance, and we believe generally wears a ca p. About V50 dollars of tpurioua monej have been found principally in the house of the Wilsons It whs all in bank bills except one do I lar.

A lady of this city in feeble health, some years ago tell liom a carriage. Fhe received a very slight bodily injury, but I be 1 1 iirht produced a sudden a nd total alj ienati"n ol mini). She soon became so : entirely unmanageable, that her friends were obliged to remove her lo the lunatic asylum at liloomi ngda le. In a few ! months, under the treatment of that in stitution, she had so recovered from her malady, as to hold intelligent conversa tion on many subjects, and her friends were allowed lo visit her. On one occasion, w hen her husband vi-ited her, while he was consulting pi ivately with the super intendaut as to lhe manner in which he hould leave without her knowledge, she I til the room unnoticed, and had untied his horse standing in front of the house, and seated herself in the wagon wild the reins and whip in hand, when she was discovered by Ihe people in the house. Tha hoise was young and spirited, and she had never reined a horse before. The agojnite of the terrified hutband, when he saw her apply the lash to the furious animal, may not be easily imagined. She started oil at full speed The husband called lor a horse, and was already mounted in pur'uil; and although he followed on at u rapid rate, he soon lost sight of her amid the throng of carnages that crowded the road from Ploomingdale to New i ork . Breathless w nh anxiety and fear, ee reached his home.
