e observe tiio Secretary of the Trcasiiry.in his 



ular iiileiuleil to obtain information respecting 

 culture of silks, speaks of tlie best mode of 

 n^ mulberry trees for feeiling the worms. We 

 understood, from :i gentleman who resided 



y years in Indiii, ind wus engaged in the cul- 

 of silks, tUut in that coiintiy, the mulberry is 



permitted to gro v to the sii<^ of ;i tree. The 



t is raised chiefly by slips or cuttings, which 

 et in the earth, a few inches asunder, in rows 



or t'iree feet apart, leaving a space sufficient 

 pc.-.-on to w.ilk between the rows. These 

 *, lifter ri.sing to two, three, or foiir feet, are 

 L^d or clipped, and never suffered to rise high- 

 >o that a boy or girl may pick the leaves as 

 walk between the ro>vs. The mode, in this 

 try, of climbing trees for picking leaves, is 



rably laborious. — Con. Herald.

Dr A. G. HulVs Patent Hinge Truss. 



[From the New York Medical and Physical Quarter- 

 ly Journal, No. 15, for Sept, 1822.] 



" We take some share of reproach to ourselves for 

 not having before this noticed the very great inprove- 

 ments made by Dr. Hull in the construction of trusses. 

 The truth is, it is only recently that our attention was 

 particularly directed to the subject ; and we were sur- 

 prised to find how vastly superior the invention of Dr. 

 Hull was to any iastrument of the kind which had 

 heretofore come within our knowledge. The principle 

 on which it is constructed, appears to us to he equally 

 just and original ; and the very gratifying success 

 which has attended its application, abundantly con- 

 firms the soundness of the theoretical principles by 

 which it was suggested. ' 



AmosG. Hull, .M. D. 



Dear Sir, — Since our interview at my house I have 

 the satisfaction to inform yeu, ihat I have been cured 

 of a rupture of 15 years continuance by the use of your 

 Truss. I found on the first trial that it was more ef- 

 fectual in retaining the bowels than any instrument 

 1 have ever used. I soon found that a favourable 

 change had taken place and I supposed myself cured. 

 About this time I was reduced very low with Typhus 

 fevi r, as I began to recover I again found appearance 

 of the rupture. I applied the Truss again and iu a 

 few weeks Ibund myself cured. I continued the in- 

 strument about one year when I leli it off and for the 

 last three years have been quite free from the com- 

 plaint. I am respectfully your friend and serv't.

 had the best opportunity of witnessing its good effects.] 



'■ 1 have for several years used Dr. Hull's patent 

 Truss both for males and females . In tvtry case it has 

 given relief and in many a ferftcl cure.
