Theré.are many ways to do many things, but there is only one way to make good Damson Cheese. - Whence it took the name of cheese, we know not, unless it be from its firm, cheestettké textire, when well made--which it will be if the following recipe is adhered to wer Pree Put the Damsons ina stone jar, which place in an oven or on a stove until the juice * the.stone separate from it. Remove the stones with a silver or wooden spoon ; mea- sure thé pulp in a preserved pan, and place it on the fire and boil, until the liquid is evapo- rated, and the fruit is left dry. Whilst this is doing, have ready a quantity of white loaf sugar, allowing half a-pound of sugar for every quart of pulp, as measured when put into the pan. Let this sugar be rolled fine, In this hot state, mix the sugar thoroughly with the dry pulp, also hot from the fire. It will become very firm, and does not require to go.on the fire again. Put it into jars or glasses: whilst: hot, and when cold, cover and 2 hess ' PRESERVATION OF _GRapEs.--A travel- ler who lived at St. Petersburgh during the | -absorb and change the nature of ammonia, he | w *séason, states that he ate there, the fréshest and most beautiful grapes he had ever seens- sLo.preserve them they should be cut ing entirely ripe.

When the corner teeth appear, the colt is eight'months, and when the latter have attained the height of the front teeth, it is one year old. The two year old colt| has the kernal, "(the dark substance in the middle of the tooth's crown), ground out of all the front teeth. In the third year the when three years old these are substituted for the horse teeth. The next four teeth are shifted in the fourth year, and the corner teeth in the fifth. At six years the kernal is worn out of the middle front teeth, and the | bridle teeth have now attained to their full growth, At seven years a hook has been formed on the corner teeth of the upper jaw; the kernal of the teeth next at the middle to wear off. At eight years of age, the kernal is worn out of all the lower front teeth, and begins to decrease in the middle upper fronts. In the ninth year, the kernal has wholly dis- appeared from the upper middle front teeth, the hook on the corner teeth has increased in size, and the bridle teeth looses their points. In the tenth year the kernal has worn out of the teeth next to the middle front of the up- per jaw; and in the eleventh year the kernal has entirely vanished from the corner teeth of the same jaw. At twelve years old, the crown of all the front teeth in the lower jaw have become triangular and the bridle teeth are much wore down. As the horse advances in age, the gums shrink away from the teeth, which consequently receive a long, narrow appearance, and their kernals have become metamorphosed into a darkish point, grey hairs increase in the forehead, over the chin assumes the form of an eagle.--Practz- cal Farmer. aN e - Puasrer or Paris AND GREEN Manure. --In conversation not long since with Mr. Benjamin Chandler, an industrious and ob- serving farmer in Starks, Somerset County, he observed that he had, by experiment, as- certained how he could use green or unfer- mented manure in the hills of corn. For- merly, whenever he put unfermented- manure in the hills of corn, the corn would, instead of growing thriftily, as is the case when well rotted manure is used in this way, become yellow in color, and seems to be injured rather than benefitted by it. This is attributed to too great.a supply of ammonia, or other sub- stance liberated when the manure began to ferment. eee Having read that plaster of paris would tried it in this way. After placing a shovelful of green manure in the hill, he covered it over with soil, and on this threw a large spoonful or more of. Plaster of Paris, then dropped his corn and covered it. When thus planted, the corn invariably grew rank, and filled the ears as well as if the manure had been thoroughly composted and decomposed. One spring, when planting his corn in this way, he had not plaster enough to go over the whole field, and accordingly, was under the necessity of planting a portion of it with green manure in the holes and no plaster over it. ; The result was an excellent crop as far as the plaster was used, while in the remainder of the field, the corn was yellow and sickly during the whole season, and yielded com- paratively little. These are important facts in the corn culture--Maine Farmer. WAGES IN CANADA. it may be served in many ways, but the fol- NY Sic. 5. a.

HE public are cautioned against. purchasing a counterfeit of Radway's Ready Relief, which is now circulating through the Canadas.-- We are informed that parties at Hamilton, C.W. have been selling a spurious article of our Rea- dy Relief, for the genuine todealers. This is not only afraud upon us, but isa most wicked im- position on the public. The wretch that will knowingly lend himself toso vile and treacherous a trick, for the gain of a few extra sixpences, is unsafe to deal with, and should be shunned by all respectable dealers, for ifa few sixpences will induce him to rob the distressed sufferer of hope and health and to place the invalid's life in dan- ger, he would not scruple to deceive his best customers, Dealers who wish the genuine, purchase only of, established credit, not of irresponsible pedlars or travelling adventurers and impostors. Dealers who have R. R. R. offered to them be- low our regular price, may rely upon the same being a counterfeit preparation. We never sell R. R. R.in large quantities for less than 10 per cent. from our regular gross price. Dealers who purchase the counterfeit and offer the same for sale, render themselves liable to prosecution. All of our travellers and authorized Agents have a power of Attorney signed by us, authorizing them in our name, to transact our business. The following are our only Agents in Hamil- ton,C. W.
