—Carrots, sugar beets, and mangel wurt-
xel should be well secured before the occur-.
rence of heavy frosts. They should be
perfectly matured, before they are pulled,
which may be known by the yellowish co-
lor ofemme of their leaves. If allowed to
remain unharvested beyond that time, a
new elaboration of juice takes place, and
much of the saccharine pe Inc,ple, which is
the fattening one, is destroyed.
Turnips and parsnips may be left in the
ground u nlel there is danger of freezing, and
the letter, if not wanted for winter use, are
all the better for remaining unpulled um
til spring. in this case, all the water must
be cereful!v led away from the bods other-
wise they might rot.
Potatoes, for winter keeping, should
never be dug before they are ripe, which
may generally bo known by the decaying
of the vine..
All kinds of culinary roots, after digging,
should be protected from the sun, by throw-
ing over them some I
or straw •ed
as e'en as the dirt attached to them be.
comes dry, let them be carried, at once. to
the cellar or pit where they are to be 'tor.'
ed. They should be kept from the air by
putting them in barrels or bins loosely
covered with straw ; and it would be still
better for them to sift in between the in-
ter.tices come fine, dry sand, or powdered
■ irslaekod lime. Such as are to bo stored
in the fields may be put In pits, where the
grnu.nd ie sandy and dry ; or they may be
piled up in conical or long heaps above the
' orrice, at any beighi required. A coating
of straw should be first I.ed over them, in
the manner of thatching the roofs of build -
"go, in order to shed off the rain. In parts
of the Country subject to heavy frosts or'
snow, the heaps should be covered with •
laver of earth sufficiently thick to prevent
the roots from freezing ; but care must be
observed not to expose them, if possible to
a temperature above 38 deg. or 40 deg. F.,
as they would be liable to heat, grow corky
and probably rot. The earthy covering for
wiotor need not generally be completed
until quite late in the season ; as, by leasing
the straw partially bare, the escape of mois-
ture and heat from the roots will thereby be
facilitated. which is all•importaot, immedi-
ately after tbey are stored. When finally
I covered over for the winter, a hole shoal(
be left et the top of the heap, or several if
the pile be long, in each of which a whisp
of straw should be placed, for the escape of
moisture and gas. if the ground be stiff
and clayey, the heap should be surrounded
-by a ditch. at least a foot deep. so as to car-
ry off all water that might accumulate
from rain or tnelti.g snow etherwise the
lowermost ,portion of the heaps would be-
come wet and spoil.—.1isericae AericelfD-

the Toads when full, were drawn upwards.—
Tbe stak-yard, also, in the most steep and
awkward owe to be found in the neighbor-
hood. The field was fairly divided, and
the men and boys were equal on both sides.
The number of carts and of waggons used
on either side was four and the horses used
in t6• waggons were eight while those to
the carts were four. Each party had a se-
parate stack, and the two parties commen-

a furl, and the approaches oo either side
are steep and almost frightful. As in the
former case, the men and boys were equal
on both sides, and lbs number of waggons
•od of carts on either side was five. The
horses used in the carts were five, while
those used in the waggons were ten. The
time occupied in clearing the ground was
4! hours. Both parties began and finished
together, and it wee found, by measurement
of the stake., that the carts had conveyed
about two loads more than the waggoni.—
Tbe trial of last week proved favorable to
carte on level and up hill ground, while
this day's result is equally favorable for
both up -bill and down. In going down to
the river, it was found necessary to lock a
wheel of the waggons, and to arrange the
horses no as to allow of an additional lead-
er in going up ; whsle 164 carts went
.traight oo without stop or change of cir-
cumstances. The results of these trials
are believed to be more favorable to carts

How bard a slaver will strive to escape

—Save the mao at tier wheel and the look-
outs' in the tops, every one seemed taking
it easy. And indeed there was no induce -
meet to exertion ; for the sky was cloud-

The captain hastened on deck, while the
second Lieutenant ran aloft to have a look
at the strange craft.
' What do you make her oat, Mr.

excitement of a chase it sea ? How eager -

ing sails ! how anxiously is the result of
each ■uccssive heaving of the long listened

what the .traoger ahead may prove to be

turn out a prize worth taking 7 For be

of preze•money float before the eyes of
every one of the pursuers, from the captain

The Sewiramis being on the tack she

No one can quetttioo the good intentions
of oar eoaotry in persisting in the slave
blockade. Put out of consideration the
enormous sums an over taxed people are
made to contribute to this African slave war,
the question remains, whether such inten,
tions are productive of the end they have
in Slew.—That the horrors oI the passage
from Africa to Brazil ars often frightfully
aggravated by the dread of pursuit and cap•
ton by onr cruisers, is well known. That,
instead of providing something like a con-
venient space for their human cargo,
sed endeavoring to land all in health and
safety, the tr•Mckers in human fleets only
build the smallest end slightest 'clippers,' in
whieb they stow as many alarm) as they
can poeeibly peek together, and only strive
to maks the roe as fat as they can, is
equally well known. And why 1 Because
