" He deems leacbed ashes a most valuable manure, and much to be prefer, red to that which is unleachcd, which he considers as having first a tendency to im. poverish it Next to leached asbes, be considers lirno the best manure for , land." Mr. Slimson's course oi farming is as fol. lows: 1st year, wheat, manured; 2d, corn, plastered ; 3d, rye, or barley ; 4th, clover and hcrdsgrassf 5th, pasture; then manure as above and wheat. ' ' In no part of the United States has agri culture and horticulture reached a greater degree of perfection than on some parts of Liong Island ;- and Una conversion of san dy plnins into the most fertile of 'soils, is by those who are acquainted with the his tory of that region, attributed mainly to leached ashes, purchased at New York and the various landings on the North River. Dr. Williams says, the favor with which they are viewed there is the result of ex perience, "I know of many thousand acres on the Island which were once too poor to produce even mullcns and rib-grass, which now cut. from one and a half to two tons of clover hay per acre, and this has all been done by buying leached ashes at from twenty to thirty-two shillings per four teen bushels, and carting thtirt rom one to ten miles. I therefore conclude that leaohed ashes are a good manure-," and if properly applied will be invaluable even in western New York." In a valuable paper on this subject by E. L. Ilommedicu, pub.

The beautiful fertility of our western lands has inspired us with too great a dis regard for those prudent precautions else, where practised to prevent a deterioration of soils. We know that fields have been cropped for fifteen, twenty, and thirty years wtth the same gram, and are still consider. ed the best of lands and currently so con. sidered, so far as our information extends, . but we have no means now of testing this , opinion by an indisputable test ; nor can we assert positively what would have been - the present condition .of such lands, had their powers been taxed less severely. tSut we are certain that a similar system of cut. tivation has caused what were once productive-districts of Virginia, to he abandoned to the briars, and turned into common, and , has rendered indispensable to the European farmer his laborious tillage and expensive manurinir. It is at least a rational sunno. si tion, that similar results will follow this practice with us and the time will come ' when the like expense, of care, labor and manure, will be as indispensable to the - firmer of the Union, if the powers found in the soil are. not preserved by proper means. Labor and capital are both want ing to attempt an exact imitation of Euro pean husbandry. , It is not, yet generally needed, but we should use to the best ad. . vantage those means of fertilizing the soil, and at the same time increase its product , which every farm, to some extent, furnish es within its own limits fertilizing matter is often thrown away at a cost which, it would have repaid trebly, if expended in J lacing the same matter on a cultivated eld at a proper time and manner. . The stable manure is often thrown out careless. !y, and left to rot the sills and door of the stable, to throw the door from its hinges or greatly interfere with Its use, lnsleadTof being properly sheltered, and in season ear ned out oFlhcway uponlhecorn ground or the root crop. These remarks were suggested by a wasteful act, as we thought New mods or destboyino thx black orub, OB ctjt worm. The destruction of crops by the cut worm is incalculable in most parts of the United. States, and count less remedies have been offered, but not oneihat strikes us more forcibly than the following, taken from a No. of' the Gen esee Farmer. .- The whole secret consists in turning up the ground with the plough during winter,- so as to-freeze tho eggs. - A correspondent of Judge -Tucker - says. ' one of my neighbors wishing to try the experiment, broke upone of his fields, ad joining the field of another neighbor, the two fields being separated only by a worm fence, during warm spells in winter,- when the ground ploughed during the day would freeze at night The spring following he again broke up the ground and planted it in corn, but not a cut worm was to be seen the whole' season; while his neighbor, who ridiculed the idea of breaking up ground in winter to prevent tho. cut worm from destroying the corny broke iip "his in " the spring and planted it also in corn; but what was his surprise when ho saw his field filled with cut worms and his corn al. most destroyed, while the adjoining field of his neighbor remained unmolested." The writer says, many experiments - have been made and with universal good success. IM Agriculturalist. .. :-l ' Abner Aiken Joel Butler 3 John McBaird laaae Bunting II Bates Ignatius Bruice .

C, by the first day of September next, a weekly Journal of the above title, of respectable size, and good paper, and fair type, to be devoted to the dissemination of politi cal principles, in accordance wun a stnet con struction of the Federal Compact, and the doc trine promulgated by the Jeflersonian Republican School. As consistent with those principles it will advocate the Election of Wm. H. Harrison, of Ohio to the Presidency, and John Tyler, of Vir ginia to the Vice Presidency of the United States, and will exercise all honorable means for the Sub version of the present Administration, with a film Conviction that its leading measures are in direct hostility to tho prosperity and happiness of the great mass of the Citizens of our Common Coun try. "It will observe a mild and dignified lone. and address itself in plain language to the com mon sense of ever class of . citizens for whose benefit it is designed. , It will be the uncompro. ftising opponent of that ridiculous system of pro scription for opinion'! sake adopted by the present administration, and will maintain the true char, actcr of an Independent public press. ' And although it will advocate the Election nf Harrison and Tyler with all the seal and ability it can command, as the only hops of restoring, the guvirmiiciii w us onginai purny ana repuoucan simplicity, ft will nevertheless treat with respect the opinions of those who differ with os, and its columns will beopen to a temperate discussion of all political subjects, and it will under' no eireuro stancce become so much of a Bartizan, hut ih.t u will scrutinize every act of the Administration for uie ume ueing, and condemn or approve as mav Southern JLadleV Book, - snrrso sr .
