In the unventilatcd and diabolical hollow, dread¬ ful indeed were the sufferings in store both for man and beast.   Not e drop of fresh water existed wilh¬ in many ailea; and, notvrilhslanding that every humait precaution had been taken to secure a sup¬ ply, by means of skins carried upon camels, the Teiy great extent of most impracticable country to be traversed, which had unavoidably led to the de- Untido of neatly all, added to the difficulty of re¬ straining a multitude maddened by the tortures of a burning thirst, rendered the provision quite insuf¬ ficient, and, during the whole cf this appalling day, with the mercury in tho thermometer standing at 126, under the shade of cloaks and umbrellas, in a auffiwating Pandemonium, depressed five hundred nnd seventy feet below the ocean, where no zephyrs fanned the fevered skin, and whore the glare aiising from the sea of white salt was most painful to the eyes, where the furnace-like vapour exhaled, almost choking respiration, created an indomitable thirst, «nd not the smallest shade or shelter existed, save «iieh as waa afforded, to cruel mockery, by the ituntcd boughs of the solitary leafless acacia, ot worse still, by black blocks of healal lava, it was only practicable, during twelve tedious hours, to sup¬ ply to each of the party  livo quarts of the most I mepbitic brickdust-colored fluid  which the direst necessity could alone have forced down the parched threat, aail which, after all, far from alleviating thirst, served materially to augment its insupporta¬ ble horrors.   It is true that, since leaving the shores of India, the party had gradually been in training towards a disregard of dirty water, a circumstance of rather fortunate occurrence.   On board a ship of any description the fluid is seldom very clean or very plentiful.    At Cape Aden there was liitlo per¬ ceptible difference betwixt the sea waler and the land "water.    At Tajurn tho beverage obtainable Iras far from being improved in quality by the taint of the new skins in which it was transferred from the only well; and  now, in the vety heart of the acorching Tehama, when a copious draught of aqua pura seemed   absolutely  indispensable every five minutes to secure furiher existence upon earth, the detestable mixture that was, nt long intervals, most pamimoniously produced  was the very acme of abomination.    Fresh hides, stripped from the rank hc-goat, 'besmeared inside as well as out wilh old lallnw and strong bark tan, filled from an impure well at Sagalio, tossed, tumbled, and shaken during two entire nights on a camel's' back, and brewed during the same number of intervening days under a strong distilling heat, poured out an ainalgaraa- tion of pottage, of which the individual ingredienis of goat's hair, rancid nmlton fat, astringent' bark, and pulrid water were not lo be distinguished.   Il might lie smelt at the distance of twenty yards, yel all, native and European, were struggling and quar¬ reling for a taste of the recipe.   The crest-fallen mules, who had not moistened their cracked lips during two entire days, crowding around the bush, thrust their hot noses into the faces of their mas¬ ters in reproachful intimation of their desire lo par¬ ticipate in Ihc filthy bnt lantaliring decoction ; and deterred with difficulty from draining the last dreg.=i^ Ihen xan Iranticly wiih open mnnths to seek mitigo, tion of their sufferings at the deceptive waters of the briny lake, which, like those of Goobut el Kha- rah, were so intensely salt as to create smarling of the lips if tailed.—The Highlands of jElhiopia.

Jajies Brooks, Esq? one of ths editors of the NeSv York E.xpress, bas a planla- lion of some 2500 acres on the banks of lhe James River. In a rncfent letter to tho E.xpross ho makes the following Interest¬ ing anti valuable remarks Velative to Farming, &c. In Virginia. Wilton, (near Richmond, J July 6lh. The solitude of a plantation li.fo litis been happily dnd boistetoUsly enlivened, to^ tiight by the sholits and hbrfdhs of the people, who have just finished their har¬ vest of grains and grasses. Never did I see a livelier or a more joyous set of mon than some twenty-five or thirty, maiching from a broad-spread field of oats, with theif cradles or little rankes on their shoulders j a field which they have vanttuished aftori whole week's work of hard cutting. Tliey efe singing and daacing and Cdpeting, as victors after a battle, for the harvest is«ow fully over, and the severest vyorlf'^^f the season is done. Well, indeed, ihay'-they be happy;they who have swung a scythe and craillc for a week steady, unde^ Vir¬ ginia sun, as blaaing as fire, amfas over- powering'as hot water. If "feVer"' don't calciilhem aflerwahis and " ague "shake them, It is because calomel will be poured down their throats with jalap or salts lo fol¬ low, as plentiful as soda water. Calomel, so terrible in a Nothern climate, has no terrors hero. The moment any of us have an ache in our bones, or a pulse little quicker than Usual, above all, if Ihere should be a "coat"'upon our tongues, doUn go the jalap and calomel; and then if a "shake" threaten to follow, then follows quinine. The practice of physic thus be- cotTies very easy, and is Cominon to most of us. I, myself, have learnt to feel the puise and to look at the longue, and to have mixed for a patient, without any re¬ morse, ten or fifteen, or twenty grains of calomel. It was a terrible task "to get used to this," as terrible as it is said to be to an eel to be skinned, but calomel here cures abdut every thing in the summer time. As Sanco Panza said of sleep, so people seem to say here, blessed be the man that invented—calomel.
The oat harvest here has been rhost a- bundant. I tried this year the seed of some of the North River oats, which come to maturity quicker than the Virginia oats, and which seem to be a better grain. For the last time, oats have been cut in these parts by hand power. On some of the plantations the cutting machine has been introduced both for wheat and oats; and so successful haa it been on what I may call the prairie lands of the rivers, that it will come into universal use right off. It does as much work in a day as ten men can doj and cuts the field closer, cleaner, and bet¬ ter than it can be done with a cradle.— Thus, the song I have heard to-nigt will be the last of "the merry reaper."—for, as in manufactories, so in agriculture, machin¬ ery ig vapidly taking the place of hand la¬ bor. I don't believe that the day is alway to be, when in a plain field, a horse or a mule will be necessary to pull the plough. Steam will do that work for us before long. We thrash with a machine. We pull stumjjs with a machine. Anoii, we shall plough with a machine.
Tho next great crop, we have to deal With {crap many people say here) is corn, the staff of life in the South,—not wheat, for wheat is to sell tothe millers.   Corn is every thing this side of the Potomac. You poor ignorant Yankees on the other side, don't even dream of the virtues that Iiein the hide of John Yellow corn.   You can't make acorn cake.   You can't mix meal respectably in any way.   You know nothing of the susceptibilities and glories of hoeing, and hoe-cake.   No wonder, then you all despise corn bread, and none could despise it more than I did till I tasted it in Virginia,—for you cannot dream of how sweet, how delicious it can be made to be. Corn meal here is worked up into as many varieties for the table, as the French pastry cook works up out of flour.'   It is not an unoommom thing to see it presented on a Virginia breakfast table in si.x or seven various forms.   Corn,  therefore,   under skilful handling, becomes the choice food of man as well as beast.   Tlie negro pre¬ fers his hoe   cake to any delicacy that could be given him to live upon.   The white, if condemned to be confined to wheat or corn, would generally prefer the latter.   The corn crop, however, is useful in   various other ways.    The "fodder," little thought of North, is every thing in the tall  branching stalk of the plant as it grows here.   The husk, or shucks, too, are valuable.   Thus every thing but the dry, naked stalk, is turned to account in Virginlaagriculture.   The grain is for man the other parts for beasts.  Cornsobecomes the staff of life.   Corn is here universally planted in drills.   If the ground is well pre¬ pared, it can be worked by the plough or cultivator, so as to need little or no hoeing. I am trying some northern corn however, this year,  planted northern fashion,   so that it can be worked both ways.   It was planted late, and has but just popped its head out of the ground, that of course, I can't tell yet what it will come to.   Jack Frost, the enemy of northern corn growers, will not harm it here.    It has time enough to grow, if planted later than this.
The season here so differs from that of New England, or New York, that vegeta¬ tion now looks as it does there the last of August or the first of September.   Every thing is going to seed.    The fields  (the corn fields excepted) seem ancient and venerable.   The gardens have yielded up their rich fruits to man.   Raspberries have for so.Tie time gone by, and blackberries are passingaway.   The fumes of the dying vegetation on all sides are palpable to the senses.   This causes billious attacks, and makes necessary the numerous and mon¬ strous doses of calomel.   The nights gen¬ erally but not always, are cool, even cold in the country where I am.   I ride from lown with an over-coat in the night, and almo.st always find it necessary, certainly more than comfortable, when I get into the woods.    A blanket, too, on the bed, is often desirable before morning.   So, you ace, extremes are great, from the intense sun of mid-day to the cold air of mid¬ night.
But, with all these drawbacks, (and they exist only on the rich bottom lands of the rivers) Virginia, I look upon as the most desirable Slate in the Union for a farmer
toemigrate toi   Land is cheap) dnd tiiUsl
Western Slates last winter:   The pfopor-
always bo cheap, WhCW lltei'iS are slave i'.iSuUttions. Thus, a very small capital can purchase what can soon be made a good fartn. The advantage of emigrating here, is found in the faCf, that il Is an old, staid and established State, wilh good laws and a good population! and its prox¬ imity to the central Slates of the Union.— t am but thirty hoiifs from New Yotk. 1 tian ^.yeaijh tho Commercial Emporium in threewayshow, by steam power, outside, ur in ocean, by a steam propeller, inter¬ nally, by James River, and Chesapeake ^ay, or by the railroad to Frederieks- burghi It costs no more to bring me a harrelfrom Coentios slip; ^n J^Jew York; than to cart it thence to Bond streeit. A farmei-, thiis, who goes to settle in Virginia, scarcely goes away from home. He has but a very short winter. There is not a monlh in the year that he cannot plough. His cattle need not ncce.ssarily, be housed, although Ihey ought to be. The fislicries In this part of the State are abundant. Tho forest Is altogether loo abundant for the health of the people, and a desirable neighborhood. The climate is the best in tbe Union, fof the Slate is in a latitude free from the toh'id heat of the sugar and rice growing regions, and the frigid cold of a five or six months winter, and three mouths spring and summer. Virginia, however, stretching as it does, from the shores of Nol-thailipion and Accomac on the ocean, to tho Blue Ridge and the Alle- ganies and the Ohio Valley, has d great variety of cliniate, and what I say, there¬ fore, applies only tp the tide water part of Virginia. As for ils diseases, who is not subject to them almost BVel^y where 1— Whenever this country is cleared and set¬ tled, it will be as healthy as any in the world, but full, as it is now, of undrained marshes, and meadows, unsettled asit is,— for, to a northern eye, 11 is but little better than a wilderness yet, interspersed often, it is true, with princely estates, what can be expected but fevers, as autumn ap¬ proaches!—particularly when bacon is devoured by every one forgetful ot the fact, that only an Esquimaus, in his ice and snow, can digest the blubber of the whalo or the seal, assuredly no man in a hot cli¬ mate, will eal the fat of pork. Off the riv¬ ers, the people here say it is healthy enough. On lhe rivers, it is cerlain, the fever and ague will burn a man inside and shake him outside, unless he exercises care. With care, however, (and calomel too) I have my doubts whether a man is more subject to disease than in N. York.
Thus much have 1 writtlsn, with an eye to tempi lo Virginia, Northern Farmers.— I have a great desire to capture this good old commonwealth for the Yankee stock of States.    Land is cheap, I say,—land, of which a good farm may soon be made, from three to ten dollars an acre,—not the land on the banks of the river, cleared and cultivated, but land where marl lies, marl worth more to the land than a gold mine.   Society is good.   The people arc a good peoplo.   Schools will come with a population.    It often seems to me, that as yet, there are no people here, and I wish, therefore lo see them come.    T have to take up my spy-glasa to see the houses of my neighbors, they are so far off, and yet so near am I to a capital of about 24,000 inhabitants, that I can see its spires' and steeples, and   almost   hear the hum   of its laborers.    Back of me and below me, off of the river, as far as I have explored, I cannot find much else but woods, woods, woods.   I ride for miles and miles and miles, in the forests, looking/or people.— And yet this is in (he first settled, and old¬ est settled part of Virginia!    The people have gone on; they have settled in Geor¬ gia, Alabama, Kentucky, Missouri, Missis¬ sippi, Louisiana, Florida, and now, as if there were too many people left, a bribe is held out to the rest to go lo Texas!— Well, if they will go, all I can say, is, Norlhern Farmers, come here and settle. Sueh land as you can sell in New York aod Pennsylvania, for 50and seventy-five, and a hundred dollars an acre, you can buy here for three to ten.   It is a shame, I say that this beautiful country, so blessed in climate and so little needing only the fertilizing hand of man, should be without people.   Here is an old and venerable riv¬ er running past my door, older than the Hudson, now lined with towns and villa¬ ges,—much older than the Ohio, (older in settlement, and in geography, I mean)— but where are the people 1   For a hundred and fifty iniles, from Richmond lo Norfolk, the first explored river running into the Atlantic Ocean, the home of Powhattan and Pocahontas, and the scenes of the tru¬ ly chivalrous John Smilh, avherb are the PEOPLE 1   Gone, I say, gone lo the South and West,  the trumpet blowing  among them now to go to Texas!   Virginia here has depopulated herself lo make homes elsewhere.   The cry now of one set of her polificians, is,—Manufactures, that would keep people here are nothing.—Texas is every thing.   Were I a Virginian, I should esteem as worth more on James River, one good while man, than all of Texas from the Sabine lo the Rio del Norte.— I Why, here is Texas all about us, land as cheap as in tho distant Te.xas, and as good too, if the money lo be spent in travelling there, should be spent in the marl or lime to fertilize it,—and in a state all ours, also, no foreign debt to be assumed, no war to be undertaken for it,—and why then, pray, leave home and country to seek, in the wil¬ derness another Texas'!—Adieu.   Enough to-day of politics and farming. B.

In the wintering of stock, there is yel greater room for improvemenls, by provir ding good warm shelter or stabling for an ¦ imals, and boiling, grinding or baking the food prepared for them.

It will be remembered Ihat during the win-' ter, of 13'13-.'43, a groat number of cattle perished for the want of sufficient food. This was doubtlessly owing to the too greal dependence placed upon some particular articles of fodder, and the severity and length of lhe winter, which shut them up from the pasture,    i. more careful econo¬ my of winier fuod, by usingat the periods of fall and early winlerthat food which would answer less for the severe, cold weather, with greater attention to the warmth ofthe animal, might do much to prevent the oc¬ currence of such a time of distress as pre¬ vailed iu somiiof the more northern ofthe
COMPOST MAKING. Jacob Maiigle, ill the lioston Cultiva¬ tor, sa5rs: "Iconscicntionsly believe that uo expenditure of capital can at all compare in profitable return with mo¬ ney put out at interest in the accumu. lation of articles with which to form compost hcap.s. Every farm ought to have three of these heaps at the same time—one being formed, one just fin¬ ished, and a third ready for carrying abroad after the necessary turnings and mi.xings and pulverizations, have been given to render the mass fit for the im¬ mediate food of plants; then it might be employed either as a top dressing for meadow or pasture lands, or be plowed lightly iu for corn, grain, &c., thus ad¬ ding P staple to the soil, and operating at the same time both chemically and mechanically; and no one would readi¬ ly believe the ease and facility with which about a couple thousand loads ofcompost could thus be collected to¬ gether, if the business were to be reg¬ ularly conducted through the whole year. But here is a statement which exhibits the fact in a light that must striice every one at tlie first sight.
Suppose then a man and ox-cart should be employed for 250 days in the year, collecting bank earth, tussocks, leaves, weeds, the parings and scra¬ pings of highways, swamp mud, open¬ ings of ditches, and refuse articles of every kind, and to carry but six loads a day, throwing up the materials and spreading them completely   over the heap at the close of every day's Avork. Why, here would be an accumulation of 1500 loads at the year's end.    And allowing 50 cents a day for the man, und as much for the oxen, the cost wouldbe §250, or 70 cents a load; car- i riage,   mixing   and   piling   included Now if we consider that this enormous accumulation would be an addition to the means afforded by the barn and cat¬ tle yards, what can more clearly prove, that capital so expended is money at compound interest.   And again, if, as the carts were emptied, the mass mix¬ ed with the stable manure, in the  pro¬ portion of one load of dung to three of muck, &c., and after fermentation, the whole were turned over and pulver¬ ized, and mingled  with a good  solu¬ tion of lime, why, the advantages could scarcely be calculated.   And it may be inquired whether this mode v^rould not be far preferable to sending the team many miles to town, for a load oi stable dung, the cost of which and carriage would be equal to about 10 loads of this compost.
It may be safely laid down as an ax¬ iom, then, that the aforesaid man and yoke of oxen would yield more profit by their labour than any half (iozen teams otherwise engaged on the farm. Few persons are aware of the fact, that the oftener the compost heap is turned over and pulverized, the richer its contents become. To carry abroad muck from the heap before it has been properly amalgamated, by frequent ex¬ posure to the atmosphere by turning and mixing, is to throw away more than one-half the profit to be derived from the system of composting "
Valuable Wheat.—We have been shown asampleof red Wheat,  which is said to possess so many excellent qualities that we do not hesitate to direct the attention of farmers  to it.   It was  raised  by Dr. Joseph E. Mdse, of Dorchester county—a gentleman whose scientific researches have been of greal service to the cause of agri¬ culture.    The Wheat abovo alluded to is called German Wheat.   It possesses the iin- portant quality of ripening eight or ten days earlier than even the Mediterranean Wheat, is not at all ail'ected by rust, fly or smut, weighs 6-li pounds to the bushel, and is pronounced to be, in good soils, e.\- tremcly prolific.   The present parcel was harvested on thel2lh of June.    The quali¬ ties here ascribed to il wero  satisfaclorily lesied by Dr. Muse, who watched the ex¬ periment wilh great inierest.   Those who desire   to sow some of this wheal—and every intelligent farmer should at least make the e.xperiment—can procure it from the agents, Messrs. James Barroll & Son, , Pratt street.—BaZi.

POLITICAL PROBLEM.—The Alexan¬ dria Gazette suggests Ihat it would be well I certificatca could hero be attached, bolh male and for our loco friends to study otit and ans

A Hap.d Cisr..—Rev. (J. Spear attended the re¬ cent hanging of Hall, the murderer, at Middlelown, Conn.    Here is a part of his report:
"I went out to make observaiions during the scene; and, the belter to effect my object, I appear¬ ed entirely ignorant of what was going on. ' "What are they doing there 1* said.I, pointing toward the pen. ' They arc hanging a man,' was the ready reply. ' VVhat !* said 1, hanging a man, in this age of civilization and refinement 1' * Ves,' said the fel¬ low, * and if you are not in favor hanging, you ought to be hung yourself!' ' And 1 suppose,' said r, ' you would like to do it.' ' Yes, I should."— One fellow was swearing away most lustily. ' It is too bad,' said he, ' here I pay taxes to support the Government, and can't have the privilege of seeing the man hung!'"
A Tall iHa.v—A Wcsiern paper say.s that Mr. Wentworlh, the Member of Congress from Chica¬ go District, Illinois, is so tall that when ho address¬ es the people, instead of mounting a stump as is usual in tho U'est, they have lo dig a hole for him to stand iu '.

In looking around upon m.-mkind, the philan thropiai cannot but find much to lament. The va. .'ions ills to whicii hia race is subject, and which are dolly and hourly liutrying thousands to the grave, and .some loo in the morning of life, when the hopes of parents and fricnda .teemed budding into moluri'yi are suiricieiii to awaken the liveliest sympathies of llio.-e whose hearts aro nol callous tu ctery sympathetic Iceling. Wlien by the hag. said look, the hurried breathings and tho hollow cough of those with whom Ilo has been in the habit of holding sweet intercourse, perhaps of his own blood relations, he sees the spark of life dimly glimmering or just ready to go out, how does his longing desires increase that the mind of man, omnipotent almost as il is, cnuld devise some means by ivhich, under Providence, the consequences of these ills might be stayed; his belter naiure be¬ comes excited, and ho is stimulated to \ns tusk in view of the mighly results which may flow from hts (oils. Thus ne sec the market crowded with nnstruins whij^e virtues if the half which are told were inie would cause devtii itself to uie and mart become immortal.

They arc willing that ili healing pro- perlies should be its recotiimendalion, and that lhe relief and the hcullli which is sure lo come to the siiU'ering and diseased sfter ils urc should proclaim its virtues; they intend, and have made, such ar¬ rangements thalit ahall have an EXPENSIVE SALK, and that they may receive a share of its healing benefits.

It seems from the great abundance of the Dandelion in all the regions where such diseases or any that flow from them exist, that it was the design of the Creator that where the malady was found the rem¬ edy mighl also be obtained.
