 Mr. s. T. Vary of Kinderhook, made report cf his farm for the Cultivator,- in which he estimates the proceeds from 145 acres ofland at $2,2S5. Deduct one third of this, and there is left $l,524, which is the interest of $21.772; MT. Vary did not state his capital or the value of his land, but the profits would pay the interest on 145 acres at $15O an acre-probably more than double its actual price.

 MT. Carter, of Champion, Jefferson county, has furnished Judge Buel a farm re- port, which makes a total from 100 acres of $l ,339. Among the items is one not usually found on farms, via. mulberry trees, and which to MT. c. are quite source of profit. This amount, less one third, as ex- penses, &c. would leave $1 ,O9S as profit, or the interest on Q capital of S15, ,OOO, which would fix MT. Carter's 100 acres at $l56 an acre-a price which would make the good farmers of Jefferson county open wide their eyes.-Genesee Farmer. "~C sSVss UsNHC GNC UOG UOlks-s nat won't make the pot boil,' said an old snug- listed farmer, whohad served a long ap- premiership in closely counting his dollars and cents, as he drove his raw boned horse up to the neat new cottage of one of his thriving neighbors, whose sons were that moment engaged in painting nea, new fence whicl they had just finished in front of his house. For one I likes to look out for the stone wall round my sixteen acre lot, and the hedge around my turnip yard, but never troubles myself much about gingerbread work about the homestead, and your daubing white paint. I'd rather see a good wood pile in my yard, and good barn full of hay, than all these little Gneries you could fix in a month";

 The old gentleman said several other vc- ry characteristic things and then rode on his way, and was presently brought within sight of his own more unadorned dwelling the duties pertaining 10 which he and his hired man had performed for the last sev- eral years, while his three sons, unwilling to drudge on in his uninterestng and tasteless way of living, had all left him to go to the city, where they could perhaps have a more successful business, or perhaps fail by and by for million of dollars.

 This is but a picture, but is there not some truth in it? Have not many of our farmers and laboring men been accustomed to look out SO sharply for the main chance, as to forget that they are laying the found- alion for loneliness in their old age? It cannot be disputed that there has been great disposition among farmers sons to go from home, and engage for veal or for wo' in other scenes and other labors. We can- not help thinking that part of the difficult ty has originated in that sordid lovc of mo- ney at the expense of every thing like good taste, which has held out but few attrac- tions to the young to become farmers, ex- cept when necessity or parental authority has compelled it.

 We wish that the time might come when there shall be more time and money given by farmers 10 the beautilying of their pla- ces. A neat farm house, with few sim- pie ornaments, is always spoken of by the passer by with interest and delight. If more such places could greet the eye of a traveller as he passes through our farming districts, there would be greater willing ness to engage in the business, among those who now bend their talent to other occupa- | tions.

 The expense of such little Improvements is but very trifling, and the time may be saved in thousand of those listless hours which arc often spent to no particular pur- pose. We repeat again with new empha- sis because with new conviction of its truth what we said year ago-that man, es- pecially farmer, who plants honey suckle by his door, who paints or even white washes his fence, who plants tree by the road side, or ornaments his garden, does much toward the growth of ofpatriOtism, as we'll as towards continuing from motives of fcheerfulness and enjoyment his posterity in the business from which he has gained his living-on the spot which he in his life has rendered dear, and in his death has rem dered more so by entrusting to it his slum- bering dust. Children grew up in the love of home under such circumstances, and their attachments are not easily eradicated; bot for the want of proper attention they will seek a separate interest. In the end, then, it is not true, that such efforts do not make the pot boil
