wtrg From the N. V. Evening Post. The following patriotic line*, uhich are copied from an Edinburgh paper, mere published on the return of that val¬ iant corps, the 92rf Regiment, after the ever-memorable buttle of Waterloo, in which they man/fsted themselves so it- lusfn'ously, as zcill desend with honour to their latest posterity :— The Song' of Scotland, On the return of the 9cld Gordon High¬ landers to their native country. "Why do thesr >houts the welkin rend ? What pipes .are these so s-weeiIy sounding ? What soldier laddirs hither hend Their footsteps o'er the dark heath hounding ? Hieh on the wind their green plaids swell, Their black plumes in the breeze are dancing, Oh ! tell me Donald, prithee tell Who these warriors are, advancing ? Lasne, these are Scotland's pride ! Well they're fam'd in gallant story ; From many a held with crim-on dy'd, Home they're coming full of glery '. Scotland's pride, and Britain's bca^t, The them** of every poefs sonnet. Once Huntly !ovM lhe>e Gordon's most, But new the red plume*,* in his bonnet. Full in the hottest of the fight. Foremost in the ranks of danger, The Highland Thistle shines most bright. To fear unknow n, to flight a stranger t • In Holland, Egypt, Denmark, Spain, This gallant ninety-second bore it, On Zealand's shore, on Gallia's plain, Full on their breasts exulting wore it ! ' And France drew back—she knew of yore Old Caledonia's badge -oglorious; And Belgium's soil grew red witl»gore. The day brave Cameron + fell victorious 1 tnat on thofe parts that have efcape<3, the fprinkling muft be repeated If judicioufly call, the mixture falls as uniformly as a fhower of rain. Many people have an idea, that the mildew is to be prevented by par¬ ticular deeps or manures, but this idea is totally unfounded. The mildew is a topical difeafe, which is only to be fubdued by a topical remedy- It was my wifh that this difcovery mould have been brought before the public time enough for the farmers living at a diftance from the pits to provide themfelves with rock fait, which for agricultural purpoies may be had for 2s. 7 1.20*. per bufhel, at the fountain head : but in this wifh I was fruftrated by a circumftance which 1 could not have poffibly foiefeea and which it is now not neceflary to detail." ■it. The Steam-Boat A Once more come home from foreign <-hore<:, Thnr hearts with lav* of winirj burning, For thee spreads Scotia all her stores, Now to their Highland Hills returning ! And well you mark in every face. The joy that native home inspires, When warm the kindred lovM embrace, With rapture every bosom tires! Loud shouts again the welkin ring. Again the pipo in ga>e»t measure. Play sweetly ; while (he Highland fling. And reel make each heart dance with pleas¬ ure, Ob Caledonia ! rai^e thy voice ! Rai<-e high thy strains, no foe dares meet thee, B'd all thy echoing bills rejoice, Thy bravest sons are come to greet thee ! From war, from battle's deadly strife. Where gha>ily Gaul ball fears to fight them, To cheer their uounds, to inspire new life, Home to their own native hills invite ihem, And when thy fostering hand hath heal'd, The>e sons who feel sopreud to own thee, Again they'd ru>h to honour's field, And freih green laurels earn to crown thee. * The Marquis of Iluntly raised the 92d chief¬ ly on his own estates. His Lordship was after- trardt appointed Colonel of the 42d, whose dis¬ tinguishing badge is a scarlrt fealher. + The author's earliest friend and commanding officer—admired as a man, laved a* a friend, and copif d as a soldier. He fell at Waterloo, at the headof his gallant 92d, whom he had never ted but to victory. His Regiment well revenged his fail on that memorable day. To the Farmer?. THE fubferiber being fnpplied with as much BARLEY as his Stores will conveniently hold, begs that the Farmeis will withhold bringing any more for Six Weeks, when he will be prepared to re¬ ceive it again at the fame price.

The following new remedy for mildew in wheat, is taken from a London paper of the 26th May laft. The Rev. Dr. Edmond Caitwright, whofe experience in agricultural matters is well known to the public, has ad dr.. fled the following letter to the editor of the Farmer's Journal: *c In the courfe of fome agricultural experiments which I was profecutiug lad fummer, I had the good fortune to make a difcovery of more importance to agri- •culture than any thing, 1 may venture to fay, that has been bro't forward for the improvement of that mo(l ufeful of all arts. The pecuniary benefits which it will confer, both on the growers of wheat, and on the every individual container of that article, I prefnme not to calculate. It is an abfolute remedy for the mildew in wheat. It isfimply this : fait one part, water eight; with this mixture let the difeafed corn be fprinkled ; in 3 or 4 days the mildew will VaninS-leaving only a difcoloration on the draw, where it had dried off; in the ex¬ periment which I tried, the mixture was laid on with a watering pot-<—--but I have fince found out, that the bed and moft ex peditious way will be with a flat brum, fuch as ufed by the whitewalhers. having a tin collar made water tight, to prevent the mixture from dripping down tht opeiator's arm and running to watte. The operator, liavinga pail of the mixture in the one hand, with the other dips the brufh into it, »nd makes his regular carts, a» when tawing corn broad caft ; in this way he will leadily get over ten acres in the day : if he has an aififtantto fetch and carry the full and empty pails, he will get over a great deal more. I calculate that about two hogs- lieada of the mixture will fuffi^e for an acre. Wherever the mixture touches, the mil¬ dew immediately dice.
