Owing to tlto severity of tlto drought, a majority of tho fanners of Ohio will cut a very saint crop of hay this season, and oats anil other course grains will not be very abundant.; every judicious farmer, therefore, will supply the deficiency ns fur as possiblo by cutlivnling such crops as may yet bo sown to fur- mslt tuotl lor stocK next winter. We mentioned a number of articled adapted fur this purpose in our "at: anil promised to say more ubout Turnips. These are uf the easiest cultivation, may be sown very lute, and will afford an abundance of good win ter mod, lor neariv all Kinds ol lurm stock. The Iluia Bmia, or Swedish Turnip was mention ed particularly in our lust, with directions for its culture. Tho present season of showers and warmth is an excellent time fursowingthis crop. Any time in June, will answer, or as lulo as the middle of Ju ly, il a very favorable season. Lnzlish J urmps may be sown from the i20ih of July, to the 1st of September the best titno beMiy about tlto 1st of August, in central Ohio; a week sootier, in the northern, und a week later in thu southern parts; but if tho weather is hut and the grutind dry, it is belter to defer sowing till ruin occurs. JNewIv cleared land is the best for turnips; next, any good rich, sandy, or gravelly soil, rather incli ning to moisture, but not wet. It old land, npply a good dressing of rotted manure, and plow nnd harrow thoroughly. Whero there is no vacant land suitable, a piece of wheat s'.ubblo may be prepared lifter harvest, for tho purpose. Halt a pound ol seed is sufhcient lor an acre, it sown evenly, (broadcast.) When the plants have attained 4 or 5 leaves, go over the field with hoes, and thin them out to about 8 inches apart, where they stand too thick, and kill Ihc weeds if they appear likely to out grow the turnips. 1 hero are several varieties of i.glish tic Id turnips, ns the common while Hut, the round, or while globe, tho red round, the long tankard, &c. Tho two first named, arc the lurgest, and the best for ordinary soils and purposes. The red round is a smaller turnip wlttto below and inside, but red where the root is ex posed to the nir. It is firmer, and keeps belter than the largo whito kinds; and is better adapted to old and light soils. The long tankard is a very quick growing and productive variety, in favorable circum stances, but not so well adapted to this climate. In addition to these, wo might nutuo twenty moro vari eties iveru it necessary; but these aro sulficicnt, nnd seed ot others cannot bo had hero at present. Vo will mention, however, tho yellow stone turnip, a me dium sized, or rather smull variety, that is found well adapted to this climate, and is very excellent for ta ble U80 during tho winter. Imported seeds, ot rttta bngn, and all tho varieties named, excepting tho long titnkitrd, can at present be had at theoflicoof tho Ohio Cultivaloi, (price $1 per lb.) also, at tho seed stores tit Cincinnati and Cleveland. Knife nnd Fork Irlnaufnctorr. The annexed description of tho mai)ufhcinrinr establishment of David N. Ropes, Kt. of Saccar- nppc, Manic, is koiii the correspondence ol the l oft-land Bulletin, nnil contains mailer of instruction: This dingy looking building o.t the right, as wo pass tho bntlgo, is tho "Knife and Fork Manufactory," conducted by Mr. 1). X Hopes, a gentleman whoso well known politeness assures us ot an ad mittance. Wo will commence at tho basement story and notice tho various processes necessary to tho completion of knives and forks. Hero is a lenin unloading steel, brought from Portland. You will perceive that tho bars are of two kinds one Hat, about an inch and a quarter wide, and three sixteenths thick, for knives; the other round aboutthree-quarters of an inch in diameter, for forks. Thcv aro marked "Sando'son & Jirothurs' finest cast steel," and aro imported from l'higland by tho proprietors. Hero is a workman culling with a powcrlut machine, similar bars into short pieces, each containing inetul enough lor two knives, which a uoy is conveying lo tho room containing the forging apparatus. VVc will fullow him; do not look so (Tightened; tho building is not tumbling in upon you, however your car may bear testimony to such an occurrence. This terrific noiao is occasioned by tho heavy "triphammer," and the numerous lirci you see burning around aro thoso short pieces of steel. Taken from tho furnace red hot a few blows of the hammer reduces them to the proper form for tho press. A dio filled into llio hammer moulds the round pieces in an incredibly short space of lime. Look, you sea him take a piece from tho tiro, a lew seconds pass, and behold we sec a fork, ir-'urly perfect, shank, stock, but instead of tho "tyncs" a Hat blado, therefore must be subject to tho press for tho purpose of cutting out tho supcrlluoui steel so as to form tho "prongs." In this room, likewise, tho processes of annealing and tempering aro going on, but wo will now visit tho press room. Here is the press; what immense power is displayed by this instrument! it cuts the old, hard steel like cheese From this room, tho knives being brought to tho right shopo by the press, are taken to another for grinding ; and having seen them ground to tho requisite thickness, wo will witness llio stamping operation, which is performed by the press, into which "die" is fixed, with the necessary letters engraved upon it Now they are taken to the room containing the wheels covered with emery, to be polished. How tho fire flies! the wheels in motion resemble the "Koman wheel" of the pyrotechnist They are now ready for handling, and, by the way those who have tested them alfirm that they will bear rougher naini-ling than any other knives. The handles are made in another room, to which we will repair. Here the workmen aie sawing horns, wood and ivory into blocks of a suitable size for handles; others are smoothing those blocks on coarse emery wheels, after which they are bored preparatory to being placed on tho shank or tlurk vf the blade. In ant ther place we shall find a number of females preparing bolsters or collars, which you will perceive are placed between the end of tha handle and the blade. The bolster is driven by machinery on to Ihc stock, after which the handle is fitted on and firmly attached by meant of cementing and riveting. The forks sre prepared in the same manner yon have noticed. The handles of both are now polished by means of what is termed a rug wheel ; and after being examined and cleaned, are packed by females, labelled and ready for market. Sonic of the best and certainly the most beautiful knves and forks in the world are now made at this establishment About fifty workmen are employed, who finish ou an average five hundred pieces per day. Hut we will now leave, if you please. Hero is tho team wo saw unloading steel, taking a load of knives und forks they u:e going to Philadelphia. Lord Kanac'a Trlrwoitra. The last number of the Eclectic Magazine contains a long and interesting account C oin the British Review of the extraordinary telescope recent'y const -ueled by Lord llosse, of Ireland, which Usnill to transcend in magnitude and power nil previous instruments, whether they were tho result of priva e wealth or of royal or national munificence. Some idea of this magnificent instrument (the result of 20 years labor,) may be conceived f.oni tho fact that the speculum or metallic re'leotor is six feet in diameter, and weighs nearly fuur tons. The focal length is SI feet. We subjoin tho following interesting rcinatl.s f;-om tho Review : In looking back upon wlirtt the telescope had ac complished in reckoning llie thousands of celestial bodies which have been detected nnd surveyed in reflecting on the vast depths of ether which have been sounded, and on the c.i'.ensivc folds of sidcrnl mil'.cr out of which worlds and systems of worlds are forming, and to bo formed can we doubt it to bo the Divine plan that man shall yet discover Uio wholo scheme ol llio visiblo universe, and thut it is his individual dutv, as well as the high prerogative of his order, to expound its mysteries, and to developo i'.s laws.-' Uver the invisible worM lio has received no commission to re'gn, nnd into its secrets ho has no authority to pry. ii is over tho material and tho visiblo tha ho has to sway llio intellectual sceptre it is nmong llio structures of organic and inorganic life that his functions of combination and analysis aro lo be chiefly exorcised. Nor is this a task unworthy uf his genius, or unconnected with his destiny. Placed upon a globe already formed, and constituting part of a system already complete, ho can sctrce'v Imco cither in tiro solid masses around him, or in llio forms and movements of the planet, any of llio secondary causes by which these bodies have been shaped and launched on their journey, lint in tho distant heavens, where creation seems lo be vcrv active, whero vast distance gives us tho vision of Hugo magnitudes, and where extended operations are ucttiuMy going on, wo ninv studv tho cosmogony of our own system, tmtl mark, even during the urief span ol human Ire, tho lormalton ot a planet in tho consolidation of the nebulous mass which surrounds it. Such is tho knowledge which man has yet to ac-nuiro such tho lesson which ho has to teach his species. How much to be prized is the imclleclua fucully by which such a work is to ho performed how wonderful the process by which tho human brain, in its casket of bone, can alone establish such rcmoto and t.nnsccuilental truths. A soul so ca pacious, and ordained for such an enterprise, cannot ho otherwise than immortal. But even when all these mvstcrics shall be reveal ed, the mind will still wrestle with eager curiosity to loarn tho final dcslinv of such glorious creations. 1 he past and tho present tu.-iiish some grounds ol anticipation. Revelation throws in some luiut touch' cs ot its light but it is inthe indications ot science chiefly in tho results of mechanical laws that we are likely lo find any sure elements for our iudg' nient. In tho creations around and near us all is change and decomposition. The solid globe, once incandescent and scarcely cooled, has been the the' alro of recurring convulsions, by which everything has been destroyed, and alter winch everything has been renewed. Animal li'.o in its varied organiza tions has perished, and written its epitaph upon nn pcrisliahlo monuments. Man, too, though never ex tinctos a race, returns ouo by one to its clay, and his intellectual functions arc perpetuated in the re-pro duction of Ins fellow. In the solar system we see fragments ol planets asleriods, as they liavo been called occupying, in almost interlacing orbits, the pluco ot a linger body ; and in the direction and amount ot the annual and diurnal motions ot tho pri mary and secondary planet?, wo recognize the result of a grand creative movement, by which the sun, with its widely extended atmosphere, or a revolving atmosphere itself, has cast oh", by successive throes, tho various bodies of tho system, at first circling in gaseous zones, but subsequently contracted into plan ets and a sun. This system, so wonderfully formed, is again er.. chained with another more distant by an assemblage of comets a class of bodies which doubtless carry on somo reciprocal intercourse for the benefit of both. Composed of nebulous matter, they may yet bo con-solidaled into hnbitablo globes; and resembling in asjicct the vast nubulrc which fill the sidcrul spaces, and tormina a part ol our own system, they couiilen a nco the theory, that the ncbulm which the telescope cannot resolve may be the pabulum out of which heat and motion aro to form new systems, whero planets, thrown oil from a central nucleus, will lortn new a-bodes of lifo and intelligence. But while all the phenomena m the heavens indi cate a law of progressive creation, in which revolving matter is distributed into suns and plautt-", there are indications in ourown system, that a period has been assigned for its duration, which, sooner or later, it must reach. Tho medium which fills universal space whether it be a lumiferous ether, or arise from the infinite expansion of planetary atmospheres must retard tho bodies which move in it, even though it were 3(X),000 millions of times more rare than atmospheric air, and, with its timo of revolution grad-oally shortening, tho satclito must return to its planet, the planet to its sun, and tho sun to its primeval nebula:. The fate of our system, thus reduced from mechanical laws, must be the fate of all others. Motion cannot be perpetuated in a resisting medium ; and where there exists disUrhing forces, there must be primarily derangement, and ultimately ruin. From the great central mass, heat may again be summoned to exhale nebulous matter chemical forces may again produce motion, and motion may again generate systems; but as in the recurring catastrophes which have desolated our earth, the great First Cause must preside at the dawn of each cosmical cycle and, as in the animal races which were successively reproduced, new celestial creations, of a nobler form of beauty, and of a higher order of permanence, may yet appear in the sideral universe. "Behold, I create new heavens, and new earth, and the former shall not be remembered." The new heavens and tho new earth shall remain before me." Let us look, then, according to his promise, for the new heavens and new earth, wherein dwellcth righteousness.

Alfi'd 7'cnnj.tois The objects of interest in tho neighborhood of Cairo aro very numerous. Leaving fur the present the Pyramids, let us cnnterolflo Heliopolis, the Oil of Scripiu e. It is only five miles of a pathway, shaded by syenmofo and palm trees, from which we emerge occosionaMy into green savannahs, or luxu- innt coru-hehls, over wli'ch tho hcuuuiul while ibis are hovering in llocl.s.

Hero Plato and Herodotus pursued philosophy and history; and hero tho darkness which veiled tho ti.eat Sacrifice on Calvary was observed by a heulhen astronomer.' Wo found nottiing, however, on the site of litis ancient city except a small gardon of orango trees, whh a magnificent obelisk in tho centre. I lieso obelisks seem never to have boon isolated in llio position for which they were originally hewn out of tho granite qua,rios of Sycne. They terminated avenues of columns or ol statutes, or stood in pairs before the entrance of the Propylca, and boro in hieroglyphic inscriptions tho destination of tho loniples lo which they belonged. 1'eoplc talk ot tho ruins ot llio temple of the Sun as being discoverable here; and there are reports about asplux, but we could discover neither. Hero istlio garden of Metarieli, whero grew llie celebrated balm of Uiload, presented by the Queen of Shuba to Solomon, and brought lo Egypt by Cleopatra. On our return towards Cairo, we were shown tho fountain which refreshed and tho tree which shaded the Holy Fumily in their flight to Egypt. Another day wo went to uoobrti, the palace and garden of Mahomet Ali. Wo rode along under a noble avenue of sycamores, just wide enough to preserve their shade, and, at tho end of three miles, came to a low and unpretending gateway, picturesque however, and covered with parasites. W illiout were tents nnd troops, and muskets piled, and horses ready saddled; but within, all was peacn and silence. A venerable gardener, with a lung whito beard, received us at the entrance, and conducted us through the fuiry-liko garden, of which he might have passed for tho guardian genius. There were very few (lowers; but shade and greenery aro every thing in this glaring climate; and it was passing pleasant to stroll along tlicso paths all shadowy with orango trees, whose truit, "like lamps lit a night ol green, hung temptingly over our heads. The fragrance of largo beds ot ruses mingled witli thnlol the orange Howcr, and seemed to repose on the quiet airs of that calm evening. In tho midst of the garden wo came to a vast pavilion, glittering liko porcelain, and supported on light pillars, wh.ch formed cloisters surrounding an immense marble basin in the ccntro of which sparkling waters gushed from a picturesque fountain. Caily painted little boats for the ladies of the harem floated on the surfuco of this lake, through wh se clear depths gleamed shoals of gold and silver fish. In each corner of the building; thore wcro gilded apartments, with divans, tables, mirrors, nnd all thosiinplo furnituro of an eastern palace, in which books or pictures are never found.f Tho setting sun threw his last shadows on tho distant Pyramids as wo lay upon tho marble steps, inhaling the odors of the orange mid promcgrnnntc groves; dreamily listening to the vespers of the busy birds, and the far-oil' hum of tho city, and tho faint murmur of tho great river. The evening breczo was sighing among the palms and the columns of the palace, when we were startled by another rustle than that of leaves, and two Obulisqucs came laughing by, unconscious of our presence, and unveiled. The old Arab gardener anxiously signed to us to look another way, but fur once I preferred European to Egyptian manners, and gazed admiringly on llie startled pair. The nearest was a beautiful Georgian girl; I believe her companion was handsome too; ut one such f ace was enough at a time, and, as it was not very quickly shrouded by her veil, I had a glitnpso of as bright no, that is not tho word but of as beautiful a countenance as poet ever dreamed ol. KIio was very fair, and all but pale; tho deep seclusion of her life had loft but littlo color on her cheek, and her exquisitely chiselled features would have been marble-like, but fur the resplendent eyes that lent lifo and lustre to tho wholo countenance. She started on seeing ns, but, observing we wcro Europeans, fear gave way to curiosity, and it was only when the old gardenor came forward that she let fall her veil, and withdrew among the orango groves. Gardens arc much cultivated in the East, though little understood, either as to ornament or management. They are strictly private, and appropriated lo the inmates ol tho harctns: these women, denied the use of their master's alphabet, have invented a lur prettier otio ol their own, and literally indulge largely in flowers of speech. Every plant and blossom has a meaning attached to it, an epistle tuny bo delivered in the form of a boqiiet, and a poetical gardener may make a flowery border do duty as a sonnet: for, "These arc the lands whero ihey talk in flowers, And tell in a garland their loves and cares; Each blossom that blooms in their garden bowers On its leaf a mystic meaning heart." A brilliant moon lighted our gallop back to Cairo: whose gates were long since closed, but opened easily to a bride. IMonysins, tha Aieopagite. t The Koran is a library in itself In the Moslem.

While tho Princeton was lying in Milwaukio, a largo mob collected near Spting street bridgo, and after some preliminary firing of cannon, &c, tho bridge was demolished, so as to preclude the possibility of passingthe river at that place. Tho bridges ' below were then destroyed, so ihtit it was impossiblo for teams to cross, and nearly so for foot passengers. It appeared that this disffraceful outbreak wns occa. sioned by sectional jealousies; the peoplo on either side of tho river were fearful that their neighbors wore doing too well. . Fatteni.no GrESE Among the papers recently read before the Academy of Scicnco ut Paris, was one embodying an elaborate essay by M. Pcrtoz, on tho best method of fattening gttst. The subject derives its importance from tho great number of methods which liavo been devised by epicures to cficct the object. It has always hitherto been contended that the food should contain the elements of fat, to be eliminated by the gooso in the process of digestion. M. Persozis of a different opinion. Ho contends that it is of no consequence whether the food bo of the kind alluded to or not, as the goose, ho says, forms in the process of digestion fat from ony food, if it contains a certain proportion of azote. Tho Bulletin in w hich these essays are sketched, soys of this one: "Wo hope M. Pcrsoz will also show that it is not necessary in the fattening of geese to exposo them to tho tortures practised by many of the feeders, such as nailing them by tho feet and confining them in a narrow space to p-event motion. We liavo no objection to partake of a good fat goose, if the feed ing bo merely the result of abundance of wholcsomo food, but we confess that wo never sco a fat goose, and, above all, a large goose liver, without thinking of tho atrocious inhumanity that is frequently resorted to in order to make the feeding of these poor animals a successful speculation." A correspondent of (he National Intelligencer, writing from New York, gives tho following interesting information which ho says he derived by conversation with persons iust returned, after a loiirr res idence at Sierra Leone and Siberia : "Near the mission established by the American Eoard at the Gaboon a peoplo have been discovered jar superior to any upon tho coast, whoso language is represented as one of tho most perfect and harmonious in the world ; who have among them a tradition that somo two centuries ago a stranger camo lo their country and insliticlcd them in civilization and their duties, who are acquainted with the facts and truths of tho Holy Scriptures, and who are remarkably prepared for the reception of farther knowledge. They are at tho present removing from tho interior towards tho coast, and our missionaries cherish the hope that through their agency civilization and Christianity may bo widely diffused." ' The Trial or Capt. Vooanr.ES, which is now taking place at Washington, before a naval Court Martial, is attracting considerable attention, in consequence of the importance, as well as novelty, of the charges. Tho official charges are of a national, not a personal, character, and are of the highest importance, viz: 1st The wrongful capture of an armed vessel, called the Sancala; 2d. The wrongful capture !of a squadron, of armed vessels; 3d. The wrongful release of certain prisoners and property captured by the said squadron; 4lh. Wrongfully tak ing seamen trom a squadron blockading the port of Monto Video; 5th. Refusing to permit the said squadron to enforce llie blockade. Tho trial has not yet terminated. Pleasure Carriages. We see by the Coshocton Democrat that General Merideth has found it necessary to correct the position taken by that paper on the tax laws. The General says that without his exertions the law could not have been passed, and then he goes on to explain the advantages it has over the old law. His communication is too lengthy for insertion in this paper. He mentions, however, ono fact that we had overlooked: That in tho northern counties the fashionables had a cunning way of getting clear of paving a tax on pkaturt enrringrt, which cannot now be done. If the law had no t th-Criaalily to recommend it, this one, in our estimation, is sullkient True Ihmacrat, (a ucouco pajitr.)
