There arc few matters of equal importance to tlie farmer, that receive so little attention from him us tlie subject of roads. lie is taxed a certain sum to be expended on the highways, or he is assessed a certain number of days' work to be performed in making or repairing; the roads, and when this sum is paid, or this tax worked out, he seems to think all is done that is necessary, or that he can do, to remedy existing evils and secure good roads. This is not the case : There is no one so much interested in good roads as tho farmer, and there is no one who should better understand the subject than he. Old methods should be discarded if better ones can be found, and a little calculation will be found as effectual as all work without forethought or proper direction. There ore many of our roads that are most unskilltully and wretchedly laid out This is particularly tlie case when the countries are new, and the character of the country or the soil could not be understood. The proper location and construction of a road, not unfrequently lessens the draft between two points J00 per cent ; and we may well believe that were our beasts of burden consulted in the matter, they would prefer a road with some slight deflections from a right line, or which was lengthened in a slight degree, to one carried directly across hill and valley, without the least reference to inclination or slope, but only to straight lines. Nine-tenths of the fanners in the country, reside at distances from 10 to 20 miles from their market places ; and the marketing a load of grain or other products, will in most cases consume a day. Now if by improvement of the roads, the farmer is able to transport 40 bushels of wheat where before, he could carry but 20, or other products of the farm in proportion, it is easy to see what a saving of time and labor will be effected. There are few farms of 100 acres, which will not furnish from 40 to 50 loads of marketable matters in the course of a year, and a saving of one-third tho time required fortius purpose, which will be made where the roads arc good, will constitute no small item of improvement or profit on the farm. If to this is added the wear and tear of wagons, harnesses, and horses, tho difference to be shown between good and bad roads, will not be less than one-half the expense of transportation. In the construction of roads, two methods have been generally adopted in the country. The first is what is called the turnpike system, in most cases tlie surface earth is drawn from the sides into the middle of the road, rounded olf, and left for the carriage road. If, as country roads are generally made, this rounded part is only wide enough for one track, ruts will soon be made in this surfuce mould, water will penetrate, and the road in tlie spring and fall, is muddy ond intolerable. The other method is to plow ditches by the sides to keep off surfuce water, and then have the central part of the road with a surface level, or but slightly inclined to the sides. This gives a better road track tian the other, less Ji'abJe to form into deep ruts, anil preferable in other respects, but unless the soil and the materials of tho road are good, this method will be found faulty and objectionable. To make a good road, it is necessary in the first place that it should be dry. In some places the soil will be naturally so poms that no surface or standing water can bo found. Where this is the case, road making is easy ; it requires nothing more than to grade or level the track, clearing away the surface earth or vegetable mould, and giving a proper inclination to the pathway. But in most soils, if no more than this is done, tlie roads will be for a considerable part of the year muddy, rough and uneven, and unlit for the transportation of loads. The making the bed for the road dry, is the first thing to be done on such soils. Drains to remove springs ; ditches to allow the surplus water to flow off readily, and tlie placing the driest soil for the track, will be required. It is idle to think of a passable road in such a country of rains and frosts as ours, unless freedom from water is first secured. In the second place, the form of the road should be such as will give the smoothest surface. When a road is so narrow as to force all the travel upon a single track, it is scarcely possible the track should remain smooth for any length of time ; it is consequently better to have the crown of the road wider and the level port suitable for wheels more extensive. In this way neither horses nor carriages will be confined to a single parf of the road, and a greater width will be leveled and smoothed. Whntevcrmay be the nature of the road, a long scraper should, whenever the road is dry, and the effects of previous wet weather appear in the form of ruts, bo drawn over the road to fill the depressions and remove all obstructions. This scraper is one of the most useful implements, and no road district in the State should be without one. In the third place, having secured a dry bed for the road, nnd leveled the surface, the cheapest mode of preserving it in fine condition for transportation, is to give it a coat of gravel some eight or ten inches in thickness. We venture to say that one-half the work laid out on tho roads in most of our towns, would go farther towards making good roads, if expended in placing gravel on them, than is now done by the whole. Graveling in some places, may be impracticable from the difficulty of procuring suitable materials, but such districts are rare, as obser vation will prove. It is a practice in some districts, to call out the work in the early part of the summer, and expend all the labor at that time. In many districts it would bo more to the profit of those who use the roads, if a part of this labor was reserved, and expended during the winter in transporting gravel to those points where the condition of the roads most requires its presence, but to which distance may render it inconvenient to draw it in the summer. The work assessed in a road district should always be expended at the time, nnd in the manner, which will insuro tho most benefit to the roads. As the farmers, more than any other class, are interested inhav-lno- good roads, they should direct their attention to their formation and preservation, and endeavor to understand and practice tho principles necessary to this end. In the choice of implements and methods, old prejudices may be encountered, but a good road appeals so directly to some of the most influential principles of our natures, that when a part of a road is made good, there is little objection, usually, to a similar treatment of the remainder. Select then a good location for the road ; provide by drains for ditches for freedom from all water in the road track, cover with clean gravel to the depth of 10 or Yi inches, and there will bo a promise of a road over which transportation will bo easy, and which will need little anuul repair. N. Y. Cultivator. Culti-ntion of Coffee. Coffee Drinkers will perhaps like to read the following description of the process of raising coffee, and preparing it for market, in Havana, which we extract from one of the entertaining "Hieroffly- nl.io tl.. NTou, -i t: B The seed is first planted in a nursery, aa it were ; while it is sprouting up into a little young tree or plant, the field for its transplantation sometimes covering hundreds of acres is being weeded and prepared. When the saplings attain the proper age and growth, they are taken up and planted for permanent purposes in the coffee field. They are put down in rows at distances from each other of from four to six feet longitudinally, and from eix to eight feet latitudinally. Here they remain until they are worn out, bearing coffee in some soils for a period aa long as twenty years. The field beinar thus planted. the whole of the planter's attention, year after year, is now directed, first to keeping the plantation clean, ' and entirely free from weeds, for this is indispensably necessary to the good and wholesome growth of the trees ; next in trimming the trees, so as to pre- ..nni c 1 .i. .i .urn. mem Hum leuoiiing a inguer amiuae man tne coffee can be plucked from them by the hand, or extending their branches too wide, thereby preventing the pickers from passing easily around them. Se condly, in plucking or picking off the coffee berries from the tree at the proper season ; and thirdly, in preparing it for market. The weeding is done with great care not so much as a single blade of grass is to be discovered among the coffee trees, covering entire acres, and thus the whole powers of the soil, which is a marl of a heavy reddish color, are preserved for their nourishment Round the bounds of the conee field, and at convenient distances through them, there are walks or avenues, the margins of which are laid out with great taste, and planted with palm, orange and other trees, giving it great beauty. Indeed a coffee plantation seems to be nothing more or less than an overgrown but well tended garden. It affords a surpassingly sweet perfume, and when the trees are in flower, or when the berries are red some still being green it is picteresque beyond anything. As the tree does not send forth all its blossoms simultaneously, a portion of the berries become ripe before the rest, and hence the process of picking is repeated at different periods. The blossom first shoots forth in the latter part of April or early part of May, and next in the latter part of May or early part of June. The berry first assumes a green hue, and as it becomes more ripe it chances to a deep red. The pulling is performed in August or September. The general process for preparing the coffee for market is this : It is first placed on a glacier of circular shape and smoothly plastered surface, built expressly for the purpose, in a quantity rating about twelve inches in depth. This is done for the purpose of rotting the Bhell or husk of the berries, eve ry one ol winch contains two or twin grains of coffee. It is next, on the same glacier, but in less quan tities, dried by exposure to the sun ; when dried, it is put in a circular mill or troueh, where a wheel- - passing over it breaks off the shell and clears the grain from all incumbrances. It is next winnowed, by which the broken husks are blown off from the grain, and lastly it is picked or assorted, the pickers using their hands alone and having no aid from machinery, dividing the crop, grain by grain, into their different classes superior, middling, and inferior. It is then put up for market Curious Calculation in Dietetics. Some calculating enius writes to the New Vork Herald as follows : I have been married 32 years, during which tima I have received from the hands of my wife three cups of coffee each day, two in the morning, and ono at night, making 32,040 cups of half a pint each, or nearly u Barrels ot HO gallons each, weighing 17,-520 lbs. or nearly 9 tons weight. Yet for that period I have scarcely varied myself in weight from 160 lbs. It will therefore be seen that I have drank in coffee alone 218 times my own weight. I am not much of a meat eater, yet I presume I have consum ed about o ounces a day which makes 5,809 lbs. or about ten oxen. Of flour I have consumed in the 32 years about 50 barrels. For 20 years of this time up to 1661, 1 nave drank two wine glasses ol brandy each day making 900 quarts. The port wine, madeira, whiskey, punch, &c, I am not able to count but they are not large. In champaign I have been extremely moderate, as I find from my bills that I have paid for 53 baskets in the last 13 years, which is about one bottle a week, and this not all consumed by me. W hen we take into the account all the vegetables in addition, such as potatoes, peas, asparagus, strawberries, cherries, apples, pears, peaches, raisins, &c, the amount consumed by an individual is most enormous. Now my body has been renewed more than 4 times in 32 years, and taking it for granted that the water, of which I have drank much, acts merely as a dilutent, yet all taken together, I conclude that I have consumed in 32 years about the weight of 1,100 men of 160 lbs. each! This is small when compared to the gormandizers. The Lion shah lie with the Lamb. Mr. Weed, the editor of the Albany Journal, is now travelling in Europe. In a Museum at Liverpool, among tlie curiosities, he describes one called tha Happy Family It is a large cage, in which a family of upwards of 100 in number, made up of cats, rats, hawks, starlings, owls, doves, monkeys, mice, squirrels, porcupines, rabbits, &c. &c. dwell together in perfect amity, and manifest for each other much and mutual affection. When I went in a large grimalkin was asleep and four huge rats lay reposing on her back, while her kittens and two young rats were at their gambols about tlie old folk ! An owl was feeding a starling with fresh meat. These animals are playful, and the birds are musical. It is an assimilation of hostile natures which fulfils much Scripture. This Room attracts and delights all visiters. A friend who went there with me, is in treaty with tho proprietor of "The Happy Family," and is not unlikely to tempt him across the Atlantic. A Good Speech. The following speech was recently made by a Washingtonian in Connecticut : "There iB no mistake about it sir Rum never did, nor never will make the man rich that drinks it. Tho last winter has been a hard season for us poor folks, generally. But I have lived betterhappier laid up more money during tlie winter although destitute of work more than half of the time than I did last summer when I had work every day. I have not half so much labor, and still am twice as well off. And, sir, the reason is this -last summer I drank Rum, and last tvinter I drank water." i

There arc few matters of equal importance to tlie farmer, that receive so little attention from him us tlie subject of roads. lie is taxed a certain sum to be expended on the highways, or he is assessed a certain number of days' work to be performed in making or repairing; the roads, and when this sum is paid, or this tax worked out, he seems to think all is done that is necessary, or that he can do, to remedy existing evils and secure good roads. This is not the case : There is no one so much interested in good roads as tho farmer, and there is no one who should better understand the subject than he. Old methods should be discarded if better ones can be found, and a little calculation will be found as effectual as all work without forethought or proper direction. There ore many of our roads that are most unskilltully and wretchedly laid out This is particularly tlie case when the countries are new, and the character of the country or the soil could not be understood. The proper location and construction of a road, not unfrequently lessens the draft between two points J00 per cent ; and we may well believe that were our beasts of burden consulted in the matter, they would prefer a road with some slight deflections from a right line, or which was lengthened in a slight degree, to one carried directly across hill and valley, without the least reference to inclination or slope, but only to straight lines. Nine-tenths of the fanners in the country, reside at distances from 10 to 20 miles from their market places ; and the marketing a load of grain or other products, will in most cases consume a day. Now if by improvement of the roads, the farmer is able to transport 40 bushels of wheat where before, he could carry but 20, or other products of the farm in proportion, it is easy to see what a saving of time and labor will be effected. There are few farms of 100 acres, which will not furnish from 40 to 50 loads of marketable matters in the course of a year, and a saving of one-third tho time required fortius purpose, which will be made where the roads arc good, will constitute no small item of improvement or profit on the farm. If to this is added the wear and tear of wagons, harnesses, and horses, tho difference to be shown between good and bad roads, will not be less than one-half the expense of transportation. In the construction of roads, two methods have been generally adopted in the country. The first is what is called the turnpike system, in most cases tlie surface earth is drawn from the sides into the middle of the road, rounded olf, and left for the carriage road. If, as country roads are generally made, this rounded part is only wide enough for one track, ruts will soon be made in this surfuce mould, water will penetrate, and the road in tlie spring and fall, is muddy ond intolerable. The other method is to plow ditches by the sides to keep off surfuce water, and then have the central part of the road with a surface level, or but slightly inclined to the sides. This gives a better road track tian the other, less Ji'abJe to form into deep ruts, anil preferable in other respects, but unless the soil and the materials of tho road are good, this method will be found faulty and objectionable. To make a good road, it is necessary in the first place that it should be dry. In some places the soil will be naturally so poms that no surface or standing water can bo found. Where this is the case, road making is easy ; it requires nothing more than to grade or level the track, clearing away the surface earth or vegetable mould, and giving a proper inclination to the pathway. But in most soils, if no more than this is done, tlie roads will be for a considerable part of the year muddy, rough and uneven, and unlit for the transportation of loads. The making the bed for the road dry, is the first thing to be done on such soils. Drains to remove springs ; ditches to allow the surplus water to flow off readily, and tlie placing the driest soil for the track, will be required. It is idle to think of a passable road in such a country of rains and frosts as ours, unless freedom from water is first secured. In the second place, the form of the road should be such as will give the smoothest surface. When a road is so narrow as to force all the travel upon a single track, it is scarcely possible the track should remain smooth for any length of time ; it is consequently better to have the crown of the road wider and the level port suitable for wheels more extensive. In this way neither horses nor carriages will be confined to a single parf of the road, and a greater width will be leveled and smoothed. Whntevcrmay be the nature of the road, a long scraper should, whenever the road is dry, and the effects of previous wet weather appear in the form of ruts, bo drawn over the road to fill the depressions and remove all obstructions. This scraper is one of the most useful implements, and no road district in the State should be without one. In the third place, having secured a dry bed for the road, nnd leveled the surface, the cheapest mode of preserving it in fine condition for transportation, is to give it a coat of gravel some eight or ten inches in thickness. We venture to say that one-half the work laid out on tho roads in most of our towns, would go farther towards making good roads, if expended in placing gravel on them, than is now done by the whole. Graveling in some places, may be impracticable from the difficulty of procuring suitable materials, but such districts are rare, as obser vation will prove. It is a practice in some districts, to call out the work in the early part of the summer, and expend all the labor at that time. In many districts it would bo more to the profit of those who use the roads, if a part of this labor was reserved, and expended during the winter in transporting gravel to those points where the condition of the roads most requires its presence, but to which distance may render it inconvenient to draw it in the summer. The work assessed in a road district should always be expended at the time, nnd in the manner, which will insuro tho most benefit to the roads. As the farmers, more than any other class, are interested inhav-lno- good roads, they should direct their attention to their formation and preservation, and endeavor to understand and practice tho principles necessary to this end. In the choice of implements and methods, old prejudices may be encountered, but a good road appeals so directly to some of the most influential principles of our natures, that when a part of a road is made good, there is little objection, usually, to a similar treatment of the remainder. Select then a good location for the road ; provide by drains for ditches for freedom from all water in the road track, cover with clean gravel to the depth of 10 or Yi inches, and there will bo a promise of a road over which transportation will bo easy, and which will need little anuul repair. N. Y. Cultivator. Culti-ntion of Coffee. Coffee Drinkers will perhaps like to read the following description of the process of raising coffee, and preparing it for market, in Havana, which we extract from one of the entertaining "Hieroffly- nl.io tl.. NTou, -i t: B The seed is first planted in a nursery, aa it were ; while it is sprouting up into a little young tree or plant, the field for its transplantation sometimes covering hundreds of acres is being weeded and prepared. When the saplings attain the proper age and growth, they are taken up and planted for permanent purposes in the coffee field. They are put down in rows at distances from each other of from four to six feet longitudinally, and from eix to eight feet latitudinally. Here they remain until they are worn out, bearing coffee in some soils for a period aa long as twenty years. The field beinar thus planted. the whole of the planter's attention, year after year, is now directed, first to keeping the plantation clean, ' and entirely free from weeds, for this is indispensably necessary to the good and wholesome growth of the trees ; next in trimming the trees, so as to pre- ..nni c 1 .i. .i .urn. mem Hum leuoiiing a inguer amiuae man tne coffee can be plucked from them by the hand, or extending their branches too wide, thereby preventing the pickers from passing easily around them. Se condly, in plucking or picking off the coffee berries from the tree at the proper season ; and thirdly, in preparing it for market. The weeding is done with great care not so much as a single blade of grass is to be discovered among the coffee trees, covering entire acres, and thus the whole powers of the soil, which is a marl of a heavy reddish color, are preserved for their nourishment Round the bounds of the conee field, and at convenient distances through them, there are walks or avenues, the margins of which are laid out with great taste, and planted with palm, orange and other trees, giving it great beauty. Indeed a coffee plantation seems to be nothing more or less than an overgrown but well tended garden. It affords a surpassingly sweet perfume, and when the trees are in flower, or when the berries are red some still being green it is picteresque beyond anything. As the tree does not send forth all its blossoms simultaneously, a portion of the berries become ripe before the rest, and hence the process of picking is repeated at different periods. The blossom first shoots forth in the latter part of April or early part of May, and next in the latter part of May or early part of June. The berry first assumes a green hue, and as it becomes more ripe it chances to a deep red. The pulling is performed in August or September. The general process for preparing the coffee for market is this : It is first placed on a glacier of circular shape and smoothly plastered surface, built expressly for the purpose, in a quantity rating about twelve inches in depth. This is done for the purpose of rotting the Bhell or husk of the berries, eve ry one ol winch contains two or twin grains of coffee. It is next, on the same glacier, but in less quan tities, dried by exposure to the sun ; when dried, it is put in a circular mill or troueh, where a wheel- - passing over it breaks off the shell and clears the grain from all incumbrances. It is next winnowed, by which the broken husks are blown off from the grain, and lastly it is picked or assorted, the pickers using their hands alone and having no aid from machinery, dividing the crop, grain by grain, into their different classes superior, middling, and inferior. It is then put up for market Curious Calculation in Dietetics. Some calculating enius writes to the New Vork Herald as follows : I have been married 32 years, during which tima I have received from the hands of my wife three cups of coffee each day, two in the morning, and ono at night, making 32,040 cups of half a pint each, or nearly u Barrels ot HO gallons each, weighing 17,-520 lbs. or nearly 9 tons weight. Yet for that period I have scarcely varied myself in weight from 160 lbs. It will therefore be seen that I have drank in coffee alone 218 times my own weight. I am not much of a meat eater, yet I presume I have consum ed about o ounces a day which makes 5,809 lbs. or about ten oxen. Of flour I have consumed in the 32 years about 50 barrels. For 20 years of this time up to 1661, 1 nave drank two wine glasses ol brandy each day making 900 quarts. The port wine, madeira, whiskey, punch, &c, I am not able to count but they are not large. In champaign I have been extremely moderate, as I find from my bills that I have paid for 53 baskets in the last 13 years, which is about one bottle a week, and this not all consumed by me. W hen we take into the account all the vegetables in addition, such as potatoes, peas, asparagus, strawberries, cherries, apples, pears, peaches, raisins, &c, the amount consumed by an individual is most enormous. Now my body has been renewed more than 4 times in 32 years, and taking it for granted that the water, of which I have drank much, acts merely as a dilutent, yet all taken together, I conclude that I have consumed in 32 years about the weight of 1,100 men of 160 lbs. each! This is small when compared to the gormandizers. The Lion shah lie with the Lamb. Mr. Weed, the editor of the Albany Journal, is now travelling in Europe. In a Museum at Liverpool, among tlie curiosities, he describes one called tha Happy Family It is a large cage, in which a family of upwards of 100 in number, made up of cats, rats, hawks, starlings, owls, doves, monkeys, mice, squirrels, porcupines, rabbits, &c. &c. dwell together in perfect amity, and manifest for each other much and mutual affection. When I went in a large grimalkin was asleep and four huge rats lay reposing on her back, while her kittens and two young rats were at their gambols about tlie old folk ! An owl was feeding a starling with fresh meat. These animals are playful, and the birds are musical. It is an assimilation of hostile natures which fulfils much Scripture. This Room attracts and delights all visiters. A friend who went there with me, is in treaty with tho proprietor of "The Happy Family," and is not unlikely to tempt him across the Atlantic. A Good Speech. The following speech was recently made by a Washingtonian in Connecticut : "There iB no mistake about it sir Rum never did, nor never will make the man rich that drinks it. Tho last winter has been a hard season for us poor folks, generally. But I have lived betterhappier laid up more money during tlie winter although destitute of work more than half of the time than I did last summer when I had work every day. I have not half so much labor, and still am twice as well off. And, sir, the reason is this -last summer I drank Rum, and last tvinter I drank water." i |
