n; Persons who are not in the secret are inclined to consider the abominable conduct ofthe repudiating States to proceed from exhaustion—“They don’t pay because they cannot pay”; whereas, from estimates which have just reached this country, this is the picture of the finances ofthe insolvent States; debts may be about two hundred millions of dollars, at uninterest ofsix per cent, this makes an annual charge

‘ ,of twelve millions of dollars, which is little more than one

r cent. oftheir income in 1840. and may be presumed to » less'than one per cent. bf their present income; but ifthey were." to provide futids for the punctual payment ofiii- forest, the debt could readily be converted into four or five .per cent. stock, and the excess, converted into a sinking fund, ,would discharge the debt in less than thirty years. The .debt of Pennsylvania, estimated at forty millions of dollars, bears, at five per cent., on annual interest of two millions. The income ofthis state was, iii 1840, 131 millions of (lol- ldrS, anrl‘is probably at this time not less than 150 millions; ,o net revenue ofouly 15 .per cent. would produce the two millions required. So that the price ofiiational character in Peunlylvauia is 1!; per cent. on the net iiicoiiiegniid it this > rltet price of morals wore established here, a gentleman 3a .thopsaiid a-yetir would deliberately and publicly submit to-iufatny for £15 per aunuut'] and a poor man, who by laborious industry had saved one hundred a-year, would ill- l'ttr general disgrace and opprobrium for thirty shillings by the. you. There really should be lunatic asyluiiis for nations lasovell as for individuals. .

But they begin to feel’this; theiatouo is changed; they talk With bated breath and whispering apology, and allay with some cold drops ofmodesty their stripliiig spirit. 'l‘liey strotted into their miserable history, and begin to think of sneaking out. '_

And then the suhdolotis press of America contends that the Englifll.‘lttlder similar circumstances, would act with

- their own debt in the same manner; but there are many

' Englishiflnstituencics wlrere'there are thousands not worth a shilling, and no such idea has been broached among them, nor has any petition to such effect Men presented to the Le- gislature. But what if'tlicy did tlt‘ljll such a manner, would

“Tlint faceiotis professor of Divinity, the. llcv. Sydney Smith, is again iii the field, with a pen as sharp and as keen- poiiited as a rapier, denouncing American repudiation. He appears to be nettled at the way in which be has been as- sailed by the American press, for his ‘ petition to Congress’ relative to the state debts of Ponsylvania, of which be is a holder. “is present letter is, on the score of literary talent, avery finished composition, and, however tnitcli it may on- noy the honest iaiptiblicnn, it has, iiiiltuppily, too much truth in its sting. It will travel through every town in the three kingdoms, and form the subject of conversation in every cir- cle. Pity that Americans, who next to admiring the institu- tions ofthe ircotititry, ought to admire their country’s charac- ter, do not take menus to uphold the credit of both, abroad as well as at home—do not make some combined and simul- taneous movement to wipe away a stain which makes them a by-word and a reproach to the rest of the world. As with imlivtduuls, so with nations, honesty is the best policy, not merely with respect to worldly gain, but what is higher, self-respect and moral dignity. The feeling which prevails throughout England, on the subject of state indebtedness, is indeed strong, and—-

lsraonucriou or VACCYNATION—DR. Jenna.— But what is vaccination? Vaccination is only the artificial introduc- tion into the human system of‘an animal poison; and it was first practised by Dr. Jenner, of‘licrkeley, iii Gloucestersldre. Now, Jenner was a man of great observation, great penetra- tion—a tiiaii upon whom than were never lost—not it more collector of facts—not one of those poor creatures who cry, “ farts, lilt-ts, give me liicls—l never think.” Men who might as \vittily cry“ bricks, bricks, give me bricks—l never build!” Ol' it quite iliflcvciit stump was Dchnucr. ,tising his profiessioii chiefly at first among the poor of his native country, from them he learned that the pcoplu cmi— tlccletl with dairies lintl their hands very Olll‘ll attacked with nti eruptive dlSt‘llSe which they traced to a similar eruption on the tents of the cows llll‘y mil ed, and tho gcncriil belief was, that such as bad this eruption, coiilil ttol take the small pox. All through Gloticcstersliii'c, this fact was known to the peasantry; but wise doctors only looked upon it its a-po- ptilar superstition. Not so Jenner, who set-about iiii investi- gation; and be discovered it to be the truth; and he finally succeeded in establishing the practice of vaccination—so called from uncut. the Latin for cow. Jenner, then, was the first who artificially introduced c0w~p0x us a preventive of

no tlitliciilty in believing, ifyou choose to recall to memory the number ofpersciis whose times were fi'ettcil and scanicil by the small-pox, in your younger days, and the few instances of a similar kind you meet with in these times, since the vaccination has. been practised. How was the discovery cf the itiiuiortal Jenner rcccived? Like every other discovery —wit|i ridicule and contempt. By the Royal College of Physicians, lie was persecuted and oppressed. Sven reli- gion and the bible were made engines ufiittack against him. From these, Errliaiu 0fl"runkfbrt deduced liiscliicl'grouuds ol'accusation against the new practice; and lie gravely at- tempted to prom, from quotations of pmpheticnl parts of scripture, and the writings ofthe fathers ofthe church, that vaccination was the real anticlirist.——Fallact'cs oft/u: Faculty. Aoaicua'ruaAL Resume—The advice of tliejiistly cele, brated Bakewell, it man who did more perhaps to advance the interests ofthe agricultiirist, and retider him prosperous, than any luau of the age, to those young friends who as farm- ers called upon him, was, to “spare no pains to know what others were doing.” This could only be done through the medium of agricultural journals, and hence be was, as ma well be supposed, one ol'tlieirablest advocates, as well as a constant contributor to their pages. Experience has shown, that to be a successful liiriner at the present day—to enter the vast field of agricultural competition on equal terms- a man must know what others tire doing; he must be acquainted with the iuiproveiiietits iii husbandry, in labor- saving machines, in the preparation and application of tini- iiures, atid with the new and improved breeds of cattle and sheep that have within a few years been introduced. To possess this knowledge is one thing—t0 make a judicious use ofit is quite another. The first he tnttst acquire from extensive personal observations, or from agricultural works; the last must be the result of reflection, combined with ex- perience. Without the first he will be behind the age 3 without the last he will be it farmer at random, a mere vi- sionary iii theory, incompetent to his business, and a loser in practice. Judgment, sound judgment, is required to render available knowledge, and where these two are coutbined,the result will be a successful farmer. Many ofthe best farmers at the present time, we mean those who make the best use of their capital and realize the greatest profits, are men who entered into competition with long established agriculturists utterly ignorant, so fitr as personal superintendctice or labor was concerned, with the business of farming. They were professional men, divines, lawyers, merchants, or mechanics, itnacquainted with the mechanical part of their new occupa- tion, but bringing to the work miuds well stored with varied and useful knowledge, and trthorough acquaintance with the advanced state and best methods oftnoderti agriculture. The voluntary choice of stich nicn proves that they have a taste for one ofthe noblest occupations of mankind, and en- tering upon it with zeal, they meet with a success to which many of those who have been brought up to fitrmino‘ from their infancy remain strangers. it is sometimes senid by those whodecry agricultural reading, or book-fai'iriing as they are pleased to term it, that you cannot make a farmer ‘ he must be brought tip to it, or he cannot succeed. The ce-7 lebrated Marshall, ofEngland, thought differently; be main- mod that “attendance and attention will make any man a He was brought upn merchant, but at titre ago a poor farm ofthree hundred acres in tltxicinity of London, and commenced fariiiitig.

To Paavss'r Sun-r IN Wasps—The celebrated Jethro Tull relatestuiat a ship load of wheat was stink near Bristol in England, in the autumn, and afterWards,’at ebbs, all taken up; but being unlit for flour, it was‘used for seed. At the following harvest, all the wheat tn England was atnutty. ex- cept the produce oftltis brined seed. ' .

An exrellent way of preventing stnut iti wheat'is to steep the seed before sowing in strong brine, and while it is yet moist to sift nick lime over it. '

A writer lllqllle Farnwra’Mugazi'nc (Edinburgh) ofi'ere'd.‘ for a trifling premium per acre, to insure the whole crop of Eng- laud from injury by stniit, provided the following recipe be judiciously applied: Steep the wheat five or SIX hoiirsin water brought from the sea, or in common Water salted till it is strong enough to float an egg, stirring it frequently. Tlicii procure fresh unsluckcd lime, slack It With water the some hour it is wanted," sprinkle ll peck ofthis overevery bushel of wheat, stirring the whole Wllll a shovel uiiul they are completely intermixed, so that every grain may receive it share. Wlicu dryuit is ready for sowing. Should the lime prove troiililcsotrio to the seeilsinau’s eyes, some water may be thrown iipoti it; for when the lime has once become dry, the cure is effected. The cliief'care needed is to mix the wheat completely with the lime, so that every seed may receive its due proportion, else the mischief will not be pre- vented. Tlie llllle‘ should be completely slacked, or the wheat may be injured by the heat afterwards. Old or air slacked time will not do; fresh should always housed. An extensive farmer in England sustained a loss of three hun- ~dred pounds sterling by using air slacked lime, which other- wise might have been prevented. The writer above nieu- tioiieil stated that by using the above remedy, lie had not once Ellchretl injury friin smut iti more than twenty years.

“ Care should be taken to apply just enough, and no more water tlmii is needed, to slack it so that it may he loll. In it'dry powder, and not contain niiysensiblu moisture. The proportions fiir this purpose are, about one part by weight of water to tliiee parts by weight of'liino.
