Fftwkes' American Steam Plough. The Phila<lolpl>i;i Ln!;/cr of the 9th of Novefnher notices the performance! of this extraordinary invention: "A triul of one of Fawkes' steam ! ploughs, which lias been built t*>r I'ol. Wood, for the purpose of exhibiting it in Cnhii, took place on an open lot j near Ilarrowgate, in the presence of a ; large number <>f farmers and others. 1 The lot ploughed has not been eiritiva-1 ted for many yea«*s, and the ground | was, therefore, well set in triads, and very hard, hut notwithstanding those; drawbacks, eight furrows were made at one time, and the sod completely turned under. The manner in which the work was done elicited the praise : from all familiar with the cultivation of the soil. The machine used yestor- j day is similar in size ami appearance to the one Mr. Fawkcs exhibited in this city some two years sii.ee, and which was described in the Lc!>i<'r at that time; fnents have heen added, which render it more effective and less liable to get out of order. In the first place, the drum on which the engine rests, and which gives it the propelling power, has heen reduced in weight, and the gearing increased in size, thus giving much more power for doing its des tined work. The cylinders are !>-iucli bore and Id-inch stroke. The boiler is feet 8 inches high, and 4 feet in dia meter. It contains tubes 1J inches in diameter, and 4 feet <> inches long. The tire box is 4by 4 feet 1 inch, and 28 inches deep. The engine is about 30-horse power, and notwithstanding the newness of the machinery, it work ed with much ease and with but little noise. An improvement has also been made in the gearing of the ploughs In substituting an iron frame in the place of a wooden one. as was the case in the first one made. The lire box in front, and which rests upon the guiding wheels, has been much enlarged with- out adding anv additional weight to the engine; and in addition to the donkey pumps, which supply the boiler with water when the engine is not in mo tion, two force pumps have been attach ed to feed the boiler when the ploughs are at work. The engine and tank are 19 feet long, and weigh about 12 tons." About Corned Beef. Corned beef, properly salted, and eooked as it should be, is a dish lit for the sovereign people; but to eat salt junk, such as too often exercises the muscles of the jaws, is a pennanee even tor a malefactor. Most of the beef put up for Winter use, is spoiled by the salt, which destroys tire flavor, and makes the meat stringy and tough. When beef is fresh, it contains considerable blood, which is drawn out by the brine. If the meat is left in this bloody mix ture, it will require a much larger quan tity of salt to preserve it, particularly through warm weather. My plan is to make a brine by using for every hun dred pounds of beef, ."> lbs. of salt, ] o/.. saltpeter, and 1 lb. of bnuvn sugar. This is dissolved in ju>t enough water to cover Ihe meat, and poured upon it. When it has been in this brine two weeks, I take out the meat, let it drain, poura fresh twine over it. and then it will he good, the reason through. The cook who uses corn beef, should not be so ignorant or ?o indolent as to delay putting it over the lire until an hour before dinner. A good sized piece requires three or four hours steady boil ing to do it justice. Insufficient boil ing must he made up for by extra chewing. Always have the water boil ing when the meat is dropped in; otherwise the sweetness will be drawn out into the water. A boiling heat hardens the outer surface at once, and thus keeps in the juices which give richness, and which contain most of the nourishment. An excellent way of cooking corned beef is, to have a large boiler, with a wire, or a wooden rack on the bottom, for the meat to rest on over the water. When the water boils, place the meat upon the rack, and put on the cover of the boiler, with a cloth over it to keep in the steam. The heat of the steam will rise above the boiling point, and penetrate the meat, and cook it more quickly and better than could be done by boiling. Cleaning Wheat. It will pay to clean prrain thoroughly before ottering it tor sale. A careless or dishonest man has little reason to congratulate himself upon having sold a quantity of chaff, cockle seed, and other foul stuff for the juice of wheat. Dealers in grain have sharp eyes for anything that affects the market price, and they readily detect wilful or care less neglect to properly clean the crop, and a reduction of from two to four or more cents per hushel is the conse quence. It requires hut a few pounds weight of refuse among grain to great ly damage its appearance. All amount which would bring fifty cents it'sold at tho price of wheat, will reduce the mar ket value of twenty five bushel? from four to five cents per hushel, thus en tailing actual loss, instead of gain, as some, by their practice, seem to sup pose. Grain merchants sometimes take advantage of the tact, that foreign mat ter in grain deteriorates the market val ue below the actual damage caused by its presence. They put large quantities of poorly cleaned grain through the fanning mill, take out one or two cents per bushel in die weight of 'bul seeds, *te., and are able to . ell tiie improced train at four to five cents advance ]n-r usbel; all of which might hi-ve IKTU realized by the producer, in return for a few hours extra labor. - TIOW IT OHT.\INKt> I!

She asked some questions, whieh he answered, alter seating her in the arm-ehair, by laving her spinning-wheel on its haek. the horizontal spindle standing verti eally. while he made the wheel revolve, and drew a roving of eottoii Irom the spindle into an attenuated thread.

Young addresses those wTio have injured themselves by private and improper indulgence in that secret uud solitary habit which ruins the body uud mind, unfitting them either for business or society, with the view to impress upon their minds, before it is too late, the absolute ne cessity of skillful medical treatment, and by a direct course of reasoning to show that although we may not be ungrateful for the health given us, that it cannot be sported or trilled with without loss; and when once engendered cannot be regain ed by mere abstinence from folly, or urgent aud strong display of courage. It may not lie generally understood by tlio great nuijority of sufferers from mental depression*, that these ilnil and heavy sen.-ations experienced in the head and about the chest, accompanied l>y feelings of anxiety and foreboding, arise from a disorgan ization of tIK* ini|mrtant functions of the body.— Such, however, is the lad, and in latter years to filch an extent has this been carried that our In sane Asylums are becoming filled with patients who owe to this cause alone their suffering. The study and practice of years has shown conclusively that to the weakness of the genital organs, super induced far too often by sell-abuse, which has be come so apparent in the face ; and where once our fathers stood giants in muscular force, the men of to-dav arc dwarfs in comdiirison. The symptoms of the disease may be faint to-dag. but so surely as you experience that weakness iu the back and limbs, dimness of sight, nervousness, derangement of the digestive functions, and gen eral debility, so surely w ill follow the harrow ing mental prostration too aw ful to contemplate, and which will cud only as the last breath COMICS strug gling, gasping from the breast of the expiring vic tim. There is something noble in dying when the good light has been fought, but what man can view a grave tilled by one whose life dribbled out in pollution, without a feeling of disgust. Do not he.-itate, hoping that time will eradicate what it only strengthens, but call at once at luj otlice, with the full assurance of a speedy and per manent cure. Let no sense of false shame deter you. but save yourself "from the awful effects of this dread disorder, and regain the full strength of your inanh'iod.

[FI:OM I'ROKKSSOII JACKSON.] The subscriber Is personally acquainted with Dr. Young, aud b is seen much of his practice, and can bear testimony to his merits ns a practitioner.
