Montague, (Mait.) Jug.

He was then immediately killed.

On the same d.y she sent for me, ami I advised the immediate uae of the scull cap but, not having any on hand, I was only nble to procure some of another person, which ua.i uccii gauierea iwo years betore, and had lain exposed lo ihe open uir in a box with directions' to giv, it every other day, as prescribed by Dr. IhatcherJ She did so, and the wound healed in a few day's. with no. unpleasant symptoms. But on the fifteenth day after the bile, she felt a slight pain or itching in ihe' pirt b'uien, which soon became 'a little elevated, and a cir.

cumscriiied inflated spot, about the sire 61 a sixpence, arose and extended over ihe cicatrix of one ol ihe mari8 of the dog's teeth; soon afterwards, she felt a fixeu pain in the wrist, which extended to hei elbow, and ahortly increased and reached" to her shoulder; pains in her baca juiii.t succcededi she iult pain lul and inher head' nd iomtiimes aisu a giddiness, so that she not walk straight forwards she now complained ol sitde, with siictuie and her breast, accompanied i d.fficulty uf breatlving. perceivinj iiese alarmm, symptoms, I conclude thai the plant lud lost iriue, uy exposure, and rndeavored to procuie Mime tecent grnwih, which fonuiiately 1 obiamtd and iu blossom; of this 1 o.de.ed a strong decoction lo be Uket immediate. ly, in doses ol half a pint easii, four times a day to be suspended every other day4 and a table spoonful ot fljur of sulphur in new milk lo be taken in its stead. For ihe g.iealer precaution, I also punctured ihe uitten pan winch discharged a litf.e watery fl.iidr and app icd lo it the bruised leaves ot the plain, which I renewed once every 5 6 hours.

Binns I is very well knov.n in this city and vicini that rye i an excellent substiute (nr coffee, ti mv not bo generally known, and I wish 1 made as public possible, since hoh 'Icidili and erniomy arc (dike inrre'i cd in the substitute being adopted The rye should he prepared by oiic quarter of an bout's boiling then diied and roasted not buint. Coffee is very apt lo injure the head, causing a vertigo, in con sequence of which, two of my family were obliged to relinquish the use of it near two years Mine. Rve has no injurious quality. A family of 8 persons will use 2 1 2 lbs.

coffee a week, at bieakfast alone this at 30 cents per pound, gives 75 cents per week, or 39 lultat. per annum. Rye is 80 cents per bushel, or 2 1 2 cen per quart 8 pints will serve the a.n family for a week, leaving a balance nl Tl ems per week, or 36 dollars 92 cents per year, in favor of the.rye Let us carry the calj culation farther, and 'suppose there are 1,350,000 families in the United S'ates, each of whom would, suve half the above summer 19 dollars yearly, by. he use 61 rye instead of coffee, (which calculation would be conii lerably within hounds,) we shall have a clear gap to the people of (he United Stales of 2350,000 dollars per annum, i ne ucsi juuges win ue uecetved by kingihe rye lor cofl'ee, if properly made.

L. MILDFV IN 'nefultouiiif new remedy in wheat, it ttktitifitma Ltnittiii puptr of the idth May Imt. llie Hev.

Dr, nimund Caitwright, whose experience in agticultural matters is well known to ihe Public. hs addressed the following letter to the editor of the Fanner's Journal. In the course of some agricultural ex pertmeius bich 1 prosecuting lot suuii er, I had the good fortune to make a discovery of mote imuoitanceto agricul mre than any thing. 1 lii'ay venure lo say, ihat has been hfougfit f.iiw nd fur the ini. provementoflhal most u.efiil ofail arts The pecuniaiy bemfis which it will con fe', bothoiuliegroweiabf and on every Individual "consumer of that article, I presume 0t to calculate.

It it an abso jute lemedy for the mildew in wheat. It is simply. this i. salt one pan, water eight with Ibis mixture let.the disc ised corn he sprinkled in 3 or days'the mildew will vanish, leaving only a discoloration on the st' aw. where it hadilned off; in the ex pettmem' which I tried, the luixtuie was laid on will a watering p0' but I have since found out, that ihe best and most ex pedilious vv.y will be wiU a flat brush, such as used by ihe having a tin collar made water light, lo'prevent the mixture from drippllhlrd ihe operator's arm and running (oivaue.

The opurator, havina pajij'ofiho mixture' ih Ihe one brush into It, and makes bis regular casis, a rthen sowiug corn bruad cast in this way he will readily gei'bver'teh in the day; ir he. has aii'dasfsdiUi lo fetch end carry the full ami empty pails, he will Kei uver a great deal calculate that boui i wo hogsheads cl the mixtu.e will aufficefor an acie. Wherever tht mix luie louchesi, ihe' mildew im.iieduitlv dies. need no. say, tli 0 those pan.

Hut havo tseaped, the snrikliiitf ntusi bo ic. ieileJ If jitdiciousty cast, the mixture falls as itniformily as sliower of tain. Many an idea, that 'the mil. dew Is to pre vented by particular steeps or iiianues, but this idea is totally unfound ed. The mildew is a topical disease, which is only lobe subdued by topical remedy.

It wan mv wish that this discovery should have been brought before the public iime enough for the faru.ers living at a dis tniicc otii the pit toprovide themselves with rock salt, which for jgriciiliu' al pi poses may be Irid fot 2s 7 2r per bushel, at the fiuntdn beal but )n this wish I was frustrated by i circtiTdtant which it is now not nccessarv iu detail Smut. The cause ofsmum wheat ha been pro. tfciivt of much and spc u'aioii hut since the fprnns have hern disi.ov. re.l tev(nlin it, we may well si satisfied i Its. In ihe year lTd7, Mr.

In Russia the basis of Ihe mctalic currency is copper. Tho United States have bul little cop prr currency, i ney have coined but lit lie and that little being of no more value than the uncoined metal, has been worked up in manufactories At ihe same time ihcUni'ed plates shoufd'have a larger cop per currency ihan any other nation. They have more copper than any oilier people in the world, mid are wholly destitute of gold and silver mines.

Copper, therefore, is ihe only, meialic turre' cy which the country can and Ibis it can produce in such am.zin quantity as lo form heie, us it does in Russia, the basis of ihe national currency. The seat of these cop. per mines is about the falls Si. iuho ny. along the sou shore of Lke Siipe'il or, and all over'ihe oumrv which lies between.

In all ihec places the mmes are not only tibund int, i.ut the mcial in a pure and virgin sta'e lies upon ihe rip of the earth, in niossr of many tons weight. Russia has a large paper which is bottomed upon copper. Copper coin is en excellent basis for paper money I here is no danger of having it drawn from ihe vaults. The weight of a laige sun in copper would always give the piefcrence to the paper. Even 'the most redoubtable broker would be repulsed from the door of a bank by the tender of a ion weight of copper money.

But the chief advantage of a copper coinage would be in furnishing small money for common I ut poses. A million of dollars flunc imo ciicuUtion, in small' money, would have a sensible effect upon public convenience Ii would furnish money lor ange and for maikeiing.nn.l would fcxpel from circulation the clouds of individual tickets which infest the country, If it were known that silver mines a bounded at the falia of St. mhoiiy, and long the south shore uf Michigan, Ihe whole nation would be in a ferment to havo them worked. A coinage ol ten pr a dozen millions in, kilver would be con sidettd ihe salvation ol the country vci i copper coinage of md'ion ol doll rs would be of moie real seivire For' ihe ten or twelve millions in silver wuuhl ba exported in two yeaiatcihe Kasi Indies, while the one miiliun of copper would re main loiever in the coun'iy. Bui li.evei nbjeu the copper of Like Superior and thu Fabs ol St, may be appl.ed, whe'her it may be coined into money or dcV ned to common uses, future generations imy iili as 0'iis'i neiii he lucredi biefavt that these mints houd hive re.
