NfiW ENGLAND FARMER. 



FORK.IGN. 

 Ai.v. — We have, williiii this week past, received 

 from Spain ol all kimls and qiialilies, some re- 

 calculated to invigorate hope, aiul others lo cre- 

 ispondeiice in the I'riends to trt cdo.n and to Spain, 

 balance, how.ver, is at present greatly against 

 ish indt pcudence. Tht- Couslittitiniialists fighi 

 :ly, but the mass of the population are not hearty 

 cates of their own cause. 'I h.y semi to couri 

 chains, and have a l>ind of alfeelion for their 

 iles, which has been g< nerated by habits of sub- 

 on to despotic authority. 



le last accounts from the seat of French and Span- 



ostilities were received by the ships Topaz and 



ica, which arrived at this port on the l.'jth inst. 



lose it appears that the Duke d'Angouleme ha I 



ladrid, and was on his way to Seville. The sUg 



una is continued. Gen. Quiroga, at the last 



vas in London, about to embark for Cadiz. Ijai- 



has been defi ated by Molilor. Gen. Wilson 



at \'i;^o, and had opened a correspondence with 



Moriilo, which had for its object a termination ol 



ities, but terminated in nothing;. The sit-»e nt 



was pressed with vifjor, and the place as vi»oi- 



detended. Gen. -Moriilo was overrunning; Gali- 



ilhout meeting much opposition. A new corps 



nch soldiers, under Gen. LtanristoD, had entered 



, with a lar^e train of battering artillery, and had 



ed the siti-ge of l^t. Sebastian. 

 n. Moriilo, Count of Carthagena, by a decree of 

 vanish Cortes, has been declared a traitor, and 

 ed of his rank, title and dignities. 



niaris Successful. — Papers received since the 

 was written, give a more favorable aspect to 

 iflairs. Thi y state that in the battle between 

 .terbs and Molitor both sides claimed the victo- 

 le battle had been terrible, both parties kept the 

 d and the action would be renewed under cir- 

 ances highly unfavorable to the French. Pallas- 

 however, had taken the French artillery- Moril- 



ni-ither recognize the Cortes nor the regency ; his 

 have denou;iced him and he has tied. Quiroga 

 sumed the command of the troops, who are in 

 pirits, 'MM strong. The garrisons of St. Sebas- 



iJ Poinneluna have madt; succissful sorties, and 

 1 the J'reneh to abandon their camps. Provi- 

 re cheap in Cadiz, the prices falling, and there 

 orospect of the speedy surrender of that place, 

 alonia " there is no end to fighting, and the 

 :rds always successful." 



DOMESTIC. 



Iford CaUle Show.— The Cattle Show and Fair 

 Hartford County Agricultural Society will take 

 in that city on the 8th of October. 



it Trees. — Mr. Denniston, of Albany, has culti- 

 plum-trees in his fine gardens near that city, to 

 ■erl'ection. He has twenty-five different kinds, 

 produce such an abundance beyond the supply 

 amlly and friends, as to enable him to dispose 

 ) worth in the public market in one season. 



Fruit — A New York paper says, " We under- 

 that .Mr. Shaw presented to the Horticultural 

 •, at their last meeting, some elegant specimens 

 :, amongst which were two new species of the 



Jbe Marie Antorrictte, imported from France, 

 ? Unique which originated in Mr. Shaw's ground, 

 d tW-„pleasure of viewing the fruit ; it is of sin- 

 tai^iJi and exquisite flavor, and is a desirable 

 tion to our present stock." 



n .Molasses.— We are informed that molasses of 

 quality has been made the present season, in 

 Carolina, from the juice of water melons boiled 



1 Sporl — On Friday last, as Mr. James Jackson, 

 ■, (L. I.) who had been out with a party of gen- 

 hunting Deer, was returning home, he fell in 

 den of Rattle Snakes, and actually shot and 

 fourteen, whirh he exhibited in the evening to 

 ther sportsmen. How many got away, (says 

 -kson in his letter to us) I cannot say, a's it was 

 icket of wood where there was a great deal of 

 ij-ush." — JV*. Y. Evening Posl. 



F.xtract of a letter from an officer on board the U. S. 



frigate Congress, dated Gibraltar, July 27, liU3. We 



have been off Cadiz for the purpose of landing Mr. 

 Nelson, our Minister to the court of Spain, but we 

 were not permitted to pass the tVench squadron which 

 is blockading the place. '1 he King is closely pent up 

 there, by land and sea. The French are ovi rrunning 

 all Spain, and meet with no manly resistance from the 

 ■jianiards. Indeed, the latter seem rather inclined to 

 sell their country for gold, than to defend it with arms. 



Thiercs. — This section of the slate has recently been 

 visited by a horde of wretches, who have plundered 

 propc rty to a considerable amount. Four or five hor- 

 ses, fifteen hundred dollars in cash, and several articles 

 of less value, have been stolen in this and the adjoin- 

 ing towns within a few days. It belioves every inhab- 

 itant to guard against similar depredations, tind to be 

 on the alert to detect these villai?is. The societies in 

 Milton, Ballston, Galway and (inenfield, for tlve de- 

 lection of horse theives, have proved very beneficial, 

 •^ince their formation, scarcely a horse thief, who has 

 ■lared to infest those towns, has escaped ; and we are 

 glad to perceive that a similar society is about bein" 

 formed in this town. — Saratoga Sentinel. 



The Belfast (Maine) paper of the 10th inst. says. 

 The weather has been for a long time past and con- 

 tinues to be extremely dry. The woods all around us 

 are on fire, and this village literally enveloped in 

 smoke. Several alarms have been given, when build- 

 ings were supposed lo be in danger, and the engine- 

 men and other inhabitants turned out with promptness 

 and alacrity. V\ e have heard of no buildings being 

 burnt in this town or its immediate vicinity. 



Fire in Maine. — Thp fire in and near Wiscasset was 

 very distressing. One aged female was burnt to death 

 in aftemting to escape from the flames. Another sav- 

 ed herself by descending a well, into which she had 

 previously thrown a chest and bed. " It was indeed," 

 says one of the papers, " an appeal to the most obdu- 

 rate heart to see the frantic moiljer with her affright- 

 ed children, running to and fro, through a burning for- 

 est, without a prospect of retreat or a hope of refuge. 

 Such was this fire, which in the short space of two 

 hours, levelled with the ground, buildings, trees and 

 fences to the extent of seven miles in length and three 

 in breadth. It might well be termed a flaming whirl- 

 wind, spreading dismay and despair, and leaving noth- 

 ing but the last consolation of the wretched, thie safety 

 of their lives." 



An end of blue cloth, 11 1-2 yards, being part of a 

 piece manufactured by Mr. Wi'lliam Hirst, of York- 

 shire, Eng. was sold yesterday, at auction, by Messrs. 

 Boggs, Thompson, & Co. for $17 75 per yard. It is 

 understood that the Emperor of Russia, the King of 

 England, and the President of the U. States have each 

 had a coat from the same piece. — \'. Y. paper. 



Pyrolignous acid — The Statesman informs us, that 

 the body of Mr. Senator Boardman, who died in Ohio, 

 has been brought from that state in a perfect and un- 

 altered condition, by being preserved in pyrolignous 

 acid, a chemical preparation now in general use for 

 preserving animal substance. We have for some time 

 been of opinion, that pyrolignous acid far excels the 

 Egyptian gums and spices used by the ancients for em- 

 balming the dead ; and bodies thus preserved will last 

 for ages unaltered in their features, and but slightly in 

 complexion. — .AT. Y. Jldvocate. 



Industry is the fountain of Independence. — We are 

 informed by a gentleman of veracity, that there is a 

 boy living in Newton township, in this county, who, 

 during the last winter, spun from tow, and with five 

 needles knit himself a pair of pantaloons with suspen- 

 ders and stockings complete. The whole was done in 

 nights by firelight, for he is obliged (though but thir- 

 teen years of age) to work in the day time for the sup- 

 port of his aged parents. His name is William Pickle. 

 He has it in contemplation to construct another pair 

 out of wool. The independence of his mind, for one 

 of his age, is truly astonishing. On being offered a 

 present of sufficient wool to make his intended gar- 

 ;nent, he refused, saying he could "am It himself.
