TOAS'i'S. 

 .- The following, according to the Bunker Hill 

 Aurora are toasts drank at the late Middlesex Cat- 

 tle Show : 



1. Our Anniversary Celebration. Its founda- 

 tion is the earth, its support industry, temperance 

 and enterprise. 



2. Our Governor. He has ability and industry, 

 and is above all party bias — may he guide the 

 .Slate in the constiiiiiional current, and leave her 

 in the haven of happiness. 



3. Two modern Scourges. The Asiatic ehol 

 era and the ultra ]iarty sjiirit — both sjiasniodic and 

 fatal. The first produces physical, the other mor- 

 al and political death. 



4. The present Generation. With our cup of 

 blessings full and running over, we are dissatisfied 

 and are destroying our best institutions, in the 

 vain hope of the golden egg. 



5. The Massichusetts Agricultural Society. In 

 full health and beauty she retires for the season, 

 that she may allow her daughters to engross pub- 

 lic attention. 



6. Hon. Edward Everett. Wliile Middlesex 

 shall he represented in the national councils by 

 men of his ability and industry, her interests will 

 never sillier. 



7. The high Party Press. A sort of safety 

 valve, through which high pressure politicians cor- 

 rupt the political atmosphere by letting off their 

 gas, till at length they burst llieir own boilers and 

 blow themselves sky-high. 



8. The good ship Constitution and her figure 

 bead. We are no fVionds to the violence of the 

 taking ofl", nor to the folly of |iulliiig on. 



9. The culture of ihe Hop. 



He who will cullivale the Hop, 

 And pole and trim from ground to top. 

 And Iteep it poing and never slop. 

 Will reap a fortune for his crop. 



10. The President of the United States!. May 

 he yet live to bless mankind, exorcise the Kitchen 

 Cabinet, and patch up all the breaches he has 

 made in the Constitution. 



Fat cattle and fat oflices. The one fills the far- 

 mer's pockets, the other empties them. 



Middlesex District. She has got good hard 

 timber enough of her own — let her use it, and 

 not go to Boston and get a sapling. 



The following was given by the Chairman of 

 th? hog Committee ; 



The Constitution of the United States: which 

 our fathers planted in its rich soil — the man who 

 Would disturb its roots is a hog, a whole hog and 

 nothing but a hog. 



APPLES. 



Wf. have been presented this week with a liand- 

 snnifi lot of apples by Hail M. Sisson, Esq. of this 

 town, which grew in his orchard ; 16 of which 

 would fill a peck measure, and 68 a bushel. 

 These apples are called the " light house russet," 

 and by some are known by the name of the "cork 

 apple." From the tree on which these grew, 

 (which is not of a large size) 18 bushels of good 

 sound apples have been taken this fidl. 



The same gentleman inforiTis us that from 14 

 trees in his orchard, he has recently picked 200 

 bushels of good \Vinter Ap|des. If any of our 

 liiriners can heat this, let them come on. — ff'arren
