Kellerman's. dragoons slaughtered to the right and to the left, till, pressed on all sides, the unfortunate grenadiers laid down their arms. Two thousand of them surrendered.

At their head, Geueral Zach himself was obliged to deliver up his sword. The Austrians were thus deprived of thoir commander during the conclusion of the battle'; for M. de Melas, as we have seen, thinking: himself sureof victory, had retired to Alexandria. Kellerm'an did not stop there dashing upon the Lichten-stein's dragoons, he put them to flight. The latter fell back upon the centre of the Austrians which was deploying in the plain, in face of Lannes, and threw it into some disorder.

Lannes then advance and attacked the shaken centre of the Austrians with vigour while the grenadiers of the consular guard and Carra St. Cyr again moved towards Castel Ceriolo, from which they were not far distant. Along the whole line from San Giuliano to Castel Ceriolo the French had resumed the offensive they marched forward intoxicated with joy and enthusiasm on perceiving victory returning to them. Surprise and discouragement had passed to the side of the Austrians." The loss on both sides is thus given "The losses considering the number of the combatants, were immense, and put of the usual proportions. The Austrians lost about 8000 men in killed and wounded, and mure' than 4000 prisoners.

Their staff was cruelly decimated General Haddick was killed Generals Vogelsang, Latterman, Bellegarde, Lamarsaille, and Gottesheiin, wore wounded; and with them a great number of officers. Thus they lost, in men tors de combat for taken, one-third of their army, if. it was from 36,000 to 40,000 strong, as it is generally said to have been. As for the French, they had 0000 killed on wounded, and about 1000 of them were taken prisoners, which again exhibits a loss of one-fourth out of 28)000 -soldiers-present at (bo battle. Their staff suffered as severely as the Austrian staff.

Generals Mainony, Hivnud, ftlnlher, Chutnpeaux, were wounded, the last mortally, 'The greatest hiss was that of Desaix. France had not sustained one more to be regretted during a ton years' warfare. In the estimation of the First Consul, this loss was great enough to diminish the joy that he felt for the victory. His secretary, M. de Bourrienuo, hastening to congratulate him on this miraculous triumph, said to him, 'What a glorious day replied the First Consul, 'it would have been glorious indeed, rould 1 but have embraced Desaix this evening on the field of battle.

I wns added he, to make him Minister of War; I would have made him a Prince if I The conqueror of Marengo had as yet no notion thafhe should at no distant day, have it in his power to bestow crowns on those who served him. The body of the unfortunate Desaix was lying near San Giuliano, amidst that vast field of-carnage. His aide-de-camp, Savary, who had been long attached to him, sought out his body from among the "dead, and, recognising it by his profusion of hair, hud it removed, and wrapped in an hussar cloak." 0 1 8 the purposes of a bare fallow so far as cleaning tho land i3 concerned, but also yields an abundant supply of rich and nutritive food, the consumption of which on the farm, increases yearly the amount of manure. With regard to the mode of culture best suited lor turnips, the concurrent testimony and experience of the best farmers have proved, that under all ordinary circumstances they should be cultivated in drills, and that these drills should approach, in width, as nearly as possible, to 27 inches an inch more or less will not materially affect tho weight of the produce but any considerable variation above or below this standard, will, in most cases, decrease the weight of bulbs per acre. The operations on the soil, preparatory to sowing the turnip seed, are of the greatest importance these operations are ploughing, so as to loosen every partible of earth to tho depth of nine or ten inches harrowing and grubbing, so as to bring up every weed, and rolling or crashing, to break every clod, and reduce to the finest state of sub-division it is mechanically susceptible of.

It is a very common error amongst ploughmen, and (to speak the truth) also prevalent amongst their masters, to look upon the operation of cross-ploughing, or stirring, as one requiring little or no attention and that the broader they can plough, and the more ground they can turn over, so much the. better. Now, this is a serious error, and often proves fatal to the young turnip plants, in consequence of hard, unstirred portions being allowed to remain throughout the field and which not only prevent them from being cleaned; but actually leave the food contained, locked up from the roots of the young plants. Ploughing should, therefore, be done as carefully as if the ploughmen were competing for a premium. The farmer or steward should occasionally visit the ploughmen and by placing his foot on the lower edge of the newly upturned furrow, he will at once.detect every error by the resistance experienced in pressing it down.

If hard, the ploughing is too broad, and the plough is not clearing out the bottom of the furrow. Make the ploughmen alter the draught on the muzzle of the plough, until the plough turns the whole furrow slice completely over. The harrowing, grubbing, arid rolling operations should likowise be carefully performed for in proportion as they are well or ill executed, will bo the superiority or inferiority of the crop. Swedish turnips should be sown from the 15th to the 25th, or in some early soils, to the end of the month. The best kinds are Laing's and Skirving's purple-tops the green-topped variety has not maintained its original character, and seems not to be adapted to Ireland.

The quantity df seed necessary per acre has been long a matter of dispute some contending for thick, others for thin sowing; we incline to the former rather than to tho latter practice, because giving a more speedy and regular braird, and a quicker subsequent growth; thus putting the young plants in a better condition for withstanding the attacks of that agricultural scourge, the turnip-fly. Not less than 5 lbs. per acre should be sown, and we think another -pound might advantageously be given. Thirty-five tons of manure, if properly prepared, and equally distributed along tho drills, will raise a good crop of turnips each ton of manureshould produce rather more than a ton of bulbs; if, however, the proportion of manure applied per acre rises much above the quantity stated, this proportion of rather more than 'weight "for weight is not maintained, thus showing that 5 6 6 -10 6 per doz per st perewt per ewt IONDOX CORN-EXCHANGE, McnAVt Arain 28.

BLIND GIRLS GATHERING FLOWERS. The love of Nature in her spring attire, is so powerful, that even the loss of sight cannot quench it. Tho following lincs.were suggested on observing fourteen or fifteen blind girls engaged in groping for and picking daisies, their happy faces indicating the delight they felt in the occupation. Play on, play on, ye merry girls, And gather the fair young flowers Tiie laughing spring her banner unfurls And scatters her blooming dowers. Ye have cast away the veil of care, Which hung on your youthful brow, And ye seem as blithe as tho lurk in the air, And ye feel as happy now.

Though you cannot look on tho radiant sides, In their golden glories clad Though you cannot perceive their changing dios Yet still they make yon glad. Though ye cannot watch their airy wings Which boar tho light bird, away; Yet ye listen, with joy. to the song And ye love' the enclianting.lay; The whispers which corao from the rustling trees Have a thousand clinrnis'Tor you And dearer by far is the Soft-winged breezo Than the sunlight's fairest hue. Though the darkling film obscures the sight, It cannot dim the And your fancies float on their waves of light Where they list for Mey are not blind. Then sport away, yo merry girls, And gather the fair young flowers The laughing spring her banner unfurls, And yc reap Iter blooming Play on, play on and when yo die, And- the blinding clouds are riven Then may ye gather in fields on high The Amaranth Flowers of Heaven.

THE BATTLE OF MARENGO. (From M. Thiers' History of the Consulate and Empire.) The author gives a long and minute detail of tins sanguinary battle. In the early part of the action the Austrian troops under General Melas were successful, notwithstanding the' determined bravery of the French army under Napoleon, and were driving them off the field, when the arrival of General Desaix, with a strong division, at this critical moment changed the aspect of affairs. 51.

Thiers gives tho following account of the conclusion of t.ie act on Half the (lay was spent. M. do Melas fancied himself sure of the victory which he had so dearly purchased. This old warrior, who for courage at least, proved himself worthy of his adversary on that memorable day, returned to Alexandria, worn out with fatigue. He left the command to M.

de Zach, the chief of his staff, and sent off couriers to all Europe to proclaim his victory and the: defeat of General Bonaparte, at Marengo. This chief of. he staf, invested with the command, formed the bulk of the Austrian army into marching columns, on the high oad from Maremjo to San Giuliano.

He pointed out the chemical composition of those substances that enter into organic structures, all of which contain oxygen, hy there is a limit beyond which nny additional manure seems to be imperative.

The manure should be laid in the drills as moist as possible, and quickly covered up, and the seed sown at a depth not exceeding one inch in moist, or an inch and a half in dry weather. In very dry weather it is a good plan to roil the drills (after the seed has been sown by the common turnip-sower) with a heavy roller this presses the particles of soil closer to the seed, fid -to as ftl ner 60 Malt.

He stated that recent microscopical examination has ascertained that one of these substances, starch, is composed of a multitude of minute globules, that consist of concentric coats, like an onion. Starch can be readily converted into gum and sugar, and also into alcohol, and carbonic acid the kind of sugar into which it converted is not exactly the sugar of commerce, but is called in chemistry grape sugar. The sugar obtained from the cane is what is procured for commercial purposes it may be converted into grape sugar, but tho latter cannot be changed info the former.

Starch can be converted into grape sugar by the addition of a small quantity of anothcrsubstnnce, called diastase and we find this taking place in the mailing of barley also, by treating starch wilh very diluted sulphuric acid, grape sugar results. Some vory curious discoveries have been lately made on yeast. It is found by tho microscope to consist of minute globules, some larger than others tho smallest seeming to be a kind of animals, that feed on the larger globules and that this is the cause of fermentation, respecting whioh process chemists had been hitherto quite ignorant. consists of sugar, butter, and easeine this last principle produces fermentation when exposed to the air, and converts the sugar of milk into lactic acid.

Vetches for late soiling may be sown down the early part of the month, and also.rape for seed. Carrots should be carefully weeded, and if sickly, will be very much benefitted by a slight dressing with guano or liquid manure.

Young wheat in drills should be hoed and carefully freed from all weeds if it be intended to apply hand-manure, do so previously to hoeing this operation will mix them with soil, and bring them within reach of the young- rootlets. If the weather bo genial and moist, a few days will be sufficient to show the good effects produced by such treatment. Roll young grass intended for hay early in the month, previously picking and removing all stones so as not to interrupt the sweep of the scythe. In cases where soiling is practised, the cows should be turned out two hours every day, for exercise and fresh air in hot days, this, should be done either early in the or late in tho evening for if turned out during tho heat of the the animals will be annoyed" with insects, and will, in consequence, be more injured than benefitted by the practice recommended. Horses deserve particular care and attention during this month, and should have a more liberal allowance, of food than usual.

Although we are not advocates for the practice of giving horses raw potatoes, yet, during the hot days in May, a few pounds of these, given at morning and noon amotigst the corn, will be f'ound'extreinely grateful to their parched mouths, and will assistto keep their skins fresh and glossy. The farmer should remember that the horse is the living machinery, by the exercise of which a certain amount. of resistance is overcome, and work performed and he may rest satisfied, that if he be permitted to get out of order, an increased expense will be incurred. A steam-engine will perform a greater amount of work in a given time, and with less waste of fuel, when in good order, than when out of it the same remark is applicable to ahorse, who, to do his work well and cheaply, must have been previously so fed, that, (viewing him as a machine) every part of his frame bo in repair when this is the case, ho can perform a greater amount of labour, more cheaply than another, whose lean and attenuated body requires to be kept up to the working point by a greater supply of food.

Barley and Potatoes, the sowing of which has not been accomplished before this month, should be committed to the earth without delay the ground will now require a more careful culture preparatory to sowing or planting during this month, than the preceding one, inconsequence of the greater liability to injure from it-is necessary, therefore, to adopt plans by which this may be avoided. It should be remembered that the more a soil is pulverized, the more hygromctric (attractive of moisture) it becomes thus, if two specimens of the same soil be taken and exposed to a current of moit air, (lie one being in. an unpulverized, and the other in a finely reduced state, and both previously deprived of moisture, the finely pulverized one will increase in weight more rapidly than the other; thus showing that the aqueous vapour floating in the atmosphere, has been condensed within its pores; this simple phenomenon is occasioned by a law of attraction, by virtue of which one substance, containing an excess either of heat or moisture, gives up. part, of these until equilibrium.

is assumed. In dry weather the finely pulverized soils draw moisture from below, to supply the place of what is'evaporated from the surface whereas, those that are in a rough and cloddy state become baked into detached lumps, and the capillary attraction from below is arrested. This may bo considered as the theoretical principle upon which is based the practice of pulverizing the soil as perfectly as possible before sowing the seed and the experience of all good practical farmers abundantly testifies to, and confirms its soundness. The foregoing remarks are well worthy of attention in regard to late-sown barley and grass seeds. The soil must, be reduced and pulverised for their reception by harrowing and rolling, or crushing; after this has been effected the seed should be drilled in, 10 inches apart, with a machine, which will give a strong and regular braird in very dry weather, if this implement be not.

at band, the common plough may be used to form the drills, which ill form them sufficient ly narrow, if it is made to go down the back of the preceding drill, instead of throwing the earth over upon it, as is the case in forming potato drills. If the weather be very dry, the seed should be sown as fast a the land is ploughed, and then harrowed and rolled immediately, so as lo retain moi-ture. By adopting a plan of this kind a good braird will not fail to bo secured. The earliest varieties of barley only should be sown.

He placed General Oreilly on the left, and Generals Kaim and Haiklick on the right, and endeavoured to gain in this order that high road to Piaceinia, the object of so many efforts, and the salvation of the Austrian army. 'it was now three o'clock.

If no new circumstance intervened, tho battle might be considered as lost by the French, unless they could, on the morrow, with the troops shifted from the Tessina and the Adda to the Po, 1 Btrieve the misfortune of the day. Desaix, however, with Bou-det's whole division, had not yet come up would he arrive in time? On this circumstance depended the issue of tho battle. The aides-de-camp of the First Consul had been galloping in quest of him ever since morning. But, long before they reached him, Desaix, on the first cannon-shot fired on the plain of Marengo, had instantly wheeled about. Hearing this distant report, liehad con-chlded that the enemy, whom he had been sent in search of to Novi, on the Genoa road, was at Marengo itself.

Ho had immediately despatched Savary, with a few hundred horse, to Novi, to seo what was going forward, and had waited witli his division, listening intently to the cannon of the Austrians and tho French, which never ceased thundering in the direction oft ho Bormida. From Savary having discovered no trace of the enemy in the environs of Nov, Desaix was confirmed in his happy conjecture, and, without further delay, marched for Marengo, send-iug before him several aides-de-camp to apprise the First Consul that ho was coming. He had marched the whole day, and, at three o'clock, his heads of columns at length appeared at tho entrance into tho plain, in tho vicinity of San Giuliano. He himself, preceding them at a gallop, rode up to tho first Consul. Happy inspiration of a lieutenant equally intelligent and attached happy fortune of yoiuh If, fifteen years later, the First Consul, now so well seconded by his generals, had found a Desaix on tho field of Waterloo, he would have preserved the empire, and France her preponderant position among the powers of Europe, The presence of Desaix changed the aspect of things, lie was surrounded ho was made acquainted with, the occurrences of the day.

The Generals formed a circle about him and the First Consul, and discussed with warmth the critical position of the army. Most of them advised retreat. The First Consul was not of this opinion, and lie earnestly pressed Desaix for his. Desaix, surveying the devastated field of battle, then drawing out his watch and looking at the hour, replied to General Bonaparte in these simple and noble terms i'es, tho battle is lost but if is only three o'clock there is time to gain another." General Bonaparte, delighted with the opinion of Desaix, prepared to avail himself of the succour brought him by that Gtneral, and of tho advantages ensured to him by the position taken ever since morning. He was, in fact, in the plain, on tho right, while the enemy was on the left, in marching column, on the high road, advancing towards San Giuliano.

Desaix, arriving from San Giuliano, with CODt) I'resli troops, and facing the Austrians, might stop them short, while the bulk of tho rallied army should fall upon their flank. Orders were forthwith issued in accordance with this plan. lti 0 0 0 0 0 12 10 0 13 0 0. 12 0-000 Lead, Sheet per cwt STRAUANE, Tuesday, Aran. 29 Oats to 9d per stone Oatmeal 12s to 12s fid per 1201b.

Sir Robert Peel has laid before the House his proposed measure in relation to the Scotch and Irish currency.

Between the two com, tries there is in the existing state of things this difference. In Ireland there exists a Bank in connexion with the Government, which enjoys very considerable privileges. The Bank of Ireland has hitherto had an entire monopoly of the circulation for sixty miles round Dublin, and of some other important functions of banking business.

Potatoes The cultivation of this root, at all times hazardous, becomes doubly so when the planting is delayed later than the month of April. Great care should therefore be taken in selecting the best seed, and, also, in depositing it in the ground. Keep it as much as possible from acted upun cither by sun or wind. Whether, therelore, yon plant in drills or in lazy-beds, cover the sets as quickly -is possible, taking, the precaution of placing a little moist earth between them and the hot manure.

These precautions if attended to, and if the seed be not very much diseased, will be found to secure a braird, where a more slovenly practice would fail. Any additional expense incurred by spreading earth between the seed and the manure, is more than repaid by the healthy state of the plants. In the lazy-bed system of planting potatoes there is a greater facility for covering up the seed quickly thaw in the drill system, where thev are necessarily exposed for some time to the per ewtl per lb1 Good ordinary Consou in everv respect on the same footing.

A plan of this kind is also very well adapted for preventing any waste of manure from exposure to the air, as it can be carried out to the field in such quantities as may be necessary to keep the labourers employed.

We have adopted this plan of planting potatoes, and can recommend it as safe, economical, and speedyi Mangel-wurzel ThisAiseful root should be sown as early in May as possible. The best and most approved variety for field culture is the common red. The seed should be dibbled in, not deeper than one inch, as it germinates very slowly and imperfectly below this depth. A very convenient dibble may be made by turning a piece of wood about a foot long, and forming it with a shoulder one inch from the lower end. A simple implement of this kind is much better adapted f'oivdepositing mangle-wurzel seed than' any other, as the seed is all placed at a uniform and proper depth.
