Red Tbp.—There is at present a great diversity of opinion among the practical farmers in some sections as to the real merits of this, particularly when contemplated as a winter feedfor stock. For my o^*pan, Lraust con|a^fc that froau-tfep experience! have had in its cultivation, 1 cannot resist the conclusion that, all
Lucerne.—This is excellent forsoilmg as from its particular habits and modes of growth, it may be cut four, five, and even si.t times a year. *It is very succulent It sKotfld be rifled the first year in order tg keep down the weeds, which when permitted to grow unchecked during its iniftppy are a great detriment to it,andiwked,when very luxuriant, strangle rtaiiiright. Wbep properly managed it wlifYast nine or ten years, in favorable localities, with judicious management eve if* lodger time.
It wiH not produce well on wet lands, as it requires warmth. From sixteen to eighteen pounds are sufficient for an acre. Gypsum is probably one of the best topdressings that can be applied to this grass. It should be bestowed in quantities varying from a half a bushel to a bushel per acre cvj-y second or third year.
Saltpetre has been used with great advantage/or the same purpose, as have also bou^e or wood j^hes but caution is requisite in the application of the latter, as too heavy a dressing will encourage the growth of moss, especially if the land be wet or very humid.
From ths Ohio Cultivator. ON THE USE OF SALT. A certain portion of common salt is necessary to man, and all graminivorous animals, for the purpose of digestion and so much as is necessary for this purpose, will be useful in, or with food. All which is consumed more than is strictly necessary, will be injurious, by causing too great relaxation, and producing scorbutic symptoms. Excessive uso of salt h® also a tendency to produce painful nervous affections of tha face, and defective jpeth. In spring when ail other animals are lively and frolicksome, persons who eat too much salt meat com plain of the spring-fever, and that tKfcy can hardly draw one leg after the other.
So far as health is concerned, the good housewife can hardly soak or boil too much salt out of meat which hasbeen cured with salt and it is only to gratify diseased appetites that such meat is preferred cooked without being freshened.

INSTINCT OF PLANTS. Hoare, in his treatise on the vine, gives a striking exemplification of the instinct of plants. A bone was placed in the strong but 8r^ clay of a vfne border. The vine sent out a leading or tap root, directly through the clay to the bone. In its passage through the clay, the main root threw out no fibres, but when it reached the bone it entirely covered it, by degrees, with the most delicate and minute fibres, like lace, each one sucking at a pore in the bone, like a litter of pigs tugging at their dame as she lies down on the sunny side of the farm yard. On this luscious morsel of a mar-row-bone would the vine continue to feed, as long as any nutriment remained to bo extracted. What wonderful analogies there are running through the various forms of animal and vegetable creation, to stimulate curiosity, to gratify research, and, finally, to lead our contemplation from nature, in a feeling of reverence, "up to nature's God!"
As to the vine spoken of by Hoare, It is wocihy of remark that the ropt went ho further than the bone, which' ft seemed to have literally smelt out, as would a hungry dog, iflf passing.—Pkila. Sat. Courier.
"FRANCE
From a statistical view of Franc#, by an ex-pri rate secretary of l,ouis Philippe, we extract the following:
Statistics of the French Population. The population of France is, at present, above 34^400,000 inhabitant*, who are disseminated over the country not, as in England, congregated at many points in large maaaea. jih the exception of Paris, there ia but one city, Lyons, containing 100,000 inhabitant* eight containing from 40,000 to 7i\0Qp| and about tweaty-fm containing ifor* than 36,000.

THE SMILES OF T«FA.TNR.—Infants on) a mon old are often seen to smile th«ir steep. Dr. Beattie says Hive heard gotnl women remark, that the innocent babe i* thenlavorefl with s$ftte alorious vision. But that a babe should have visions or dreams, before it has ideas can hardly be imagined. This is probably the effect, not of thought, but of s*me bodily feeling, or merely of some transient contraction or expansion of the muscles,* Certain it is, that no smite* are so captivating. And Providence no doubt intended them as a sort of silent
language to engage our love? even as by ihe,chiia.renv

QUICK TELEGRAPHING.—The address of
Mr. Clay, containing 878 words.was transmitted on Wednesday evening over the Western telegraph line, from Cincinnati, in forty minutes. This was accomplished by Mr. Barnes, the chief operator of the Cincinati office, and with as much correctness as despatch. This is the first lengthy document that has been transmitted between Cincinnati and Philadelphia without being re-written at Pittsburg so that it is sometihng [sic] to boast of.
The distance accomplished by this feat is seven hundred miles. It is a singular fact that although the address was published yesterday morning in New York, Baltimore and Philadelphia, the good folks of Pittsburg were not aware of existence until hours afterward. <Phil. Ledger>. ———————
THE
PERSECUTION OF
York Republican, in noticing the bad treatment that this honored hero has received from the Administration, very
properly asks: ,HI "Is not treatment such as this—treatment which has destroyed the happiness and broken the health of this great General—calculated to arouse the indignation of the American people against his persecutors? Shall Winfield Scott be sacrificed to such vile machinations?— The New Orleans Delta, speaking of the annoyances to which Gen. Scott is subjected, says that he has exhibited signs of serious indisposition and physical debility. Is his life also to be forfeited to official jealousy and malevolence? It is said, moreover, that he intends to resign his command in the army as soon as he returns home. Then must his country lose his services through the fault of Polk."

GIVE YOUR CHILD A NEWSPAPER. A ehitd beginning to read becomes delighted with a newspaper. Decease be reads the names and things which are familiar, and he will make progress accordingly. A newspaper one year is wwnh ft quarter's schooling to a child, and every father must consider that rabetantial information is con:.- ted with advancement. The mother of a family, i^jing one of its heads and having more cnarjre of the children, should Iwreelf be instructed^ A mind occepiad booomee fortified against th« ills of life, and is braced up for any emergency. hUdren amused by reading or study, are or course more considerate and enisily governed.

'rifi\lMPORTAXT TO PARENTS. W I N E S CANADIAN VERMIFUGE
A Crr'aiii etnfdy for Worms.
THIS
medicine is safe in its operation, and more easily administered than any other. The greatest cause of death among children is to be attributed to Worms. They give rise to numerous diseases, and are the more fatal because the least suspected were parents to give this subject more attention, and carefully observe the symptoms which indicate the existence of worms in the bowels, the lives ot many children would vo doubt be mvfd. Some of the symptoms are as follows: the countenance is of a pale or a leaden color, and suffused with occasional flushes, the eyes are heavy and dull, bad breath, itching id the nostrils, the sleep is disturbed, the patient often awakening in great trig lit, and is liaole tq starting and grinning Ui»teeth, this appetite is irregular, being sometimes voracious and it other times feeble, occasional Vomiting, &c.
IV r't anndinn Vermifuge has acquired a reputation far exceeding that of any other medicine of the kind, and is daily increasing in popularity wherever it is known and used it is universally approved it possesses properties which no other article of the kind does, it is morep'ompt and '/fiat'it in its action, and entirely free from ingredients which have any but a beneficial effect, the nealth of the patient being always improved even when no worms are discovered. Physicians prescribe it, and to use the language of one in high standing, who resides in Cleveland, Ohio, consider it "the only article of the kind he ever saw that was so uniform and prompt in expelling worms it may indeed he relied on with tne utmost confidence, as it has rtvrr been hi on to/ml, this is the reason whv all who have used it will not use any other.
We have in our possession a number of certificates from physicians and others of the highest respectability, who all testify to its superior efficacy and recommend it as a never-failing remedy, lift
HEAD AND BE CONVINCED! mm We, tha undersigned, have frequently administered medicine prepared by Mr. John Winer, of this town, designated "J. Winer's Canadian Vermifuge," and being fully satisfied with its efficacy, confidently recommend it as a safe and efficient remedy for the expulsion of worms from the intestinal canal.

Messrs. J. Wfner & Co.—Sirs: My child of five years of age was for more than two years severely afflicted mth worms, during which time we gave her different medicines recommended in such cases, but they produced no beneficial effects. 1 at length procured ft bottle of your anadiftn Vermifuge. aAd gave it to her, which caused her to pass larse number of worms since then she h«s bees in the enjoyment of perfect health. From my own experience I would recommend your Vermifuge as being the most safe and effectual remedy for worms

BULLETIN No. 2.
Great Flood of 1847 will be long remembered in many parts of the West The swollen streams seemed to know no bounds, but rising higher and higher, carried dismay to the inhabitants. Merchants ware obliged to remove their wares from the rivers' sides to remoter places families were compelled to desert their dwellings the poor suffered more severely than language can describe. The public authorities were callad on to administer aid and counsel. In ahort a great public calamity had occurred.
Well would it be if the sad consequences of the flood had ceased when the gators subsided. But no! KrThe retiring waves loft vast alluvial deposites, which in a tew months must give out that deleterious miasm which produces bilious diseases.
What says the celebrated Dr. Ferguson on this point? Answers "The cause of bilious deran^ement has its principal source in halt-dried margins of rivers." All history and experience prove this theory. When the British army encamped on the plain of Estramadura, at a time when toe river Guadiann had become dry after a flood, remittent and intermittent fevers raged among the troops with such malignity, that they came nigh being extirpated.
E A E E N E O A N
therefore earnestly call the attention of die entire West to their most extraordinary and celebrated series of Anti-Bilious medicine*. In any locality where there is the slightest tendency to any form of Fever, Fever and Ague, Dumb Ague and the likes the inhabitants should at once send to the General Agent of the district, and have a Graefonberg depot established war tl^. W^ethgdone and thcGrtteftnberg Vegetable Pttls and Health Bitters used according to directions, there wofrid be no fear of bilious diseases.
So Important are the (Jtraefenftew Medicines to the people of the West, that die following steps should be immediately taken1st Every neighborhood should have its Graefenberg Depot By addressing the General Agent of any District this can be secured. 2d. Families shocid dob together and get an immediate supply.

undersigned, thankful for the very liberal patronage ne has received from the public and anxious to merit and receive further favors in his line of business, would say that he is still manufacturing Wagons, Carts, Drays and all kinds of heavy vehicles at short notice, and of the very best materials the country can furnish—both Timber and Iron—and his workmanship where known will speak for itself, and as it is the way he makes his living he cannot afford to do bad work ami use bad materials. If he were a merchant, and could get work madeup for Calicoes and Ribbons, without any hard knocks of his own, and could use puddle iron, such work could be sold cheap, and if such work be wanted (these haw times,) he can make and sell wagons at sixty dollars. His painting is not done in a gaudy style, (to draw the attention from a close inspection of parts more vital to a good article,) but plain and of the boat rad lead or any other plain color that may be wanted. He uses none but Sboenberger"* best Juniata iron, and if his or some other good maker's name is not found stamped on the tire and other parts, beware of it He warrants his wagona, materials, aad workmanship, for two years, but not being a merchant wagon-maker, he is not prepared to barter off his work, but will facility he can to his friends, at his old two spinning wheels.)
