WESTERN DEMtOMT,i : OH!&BLOTTE;J N.WO. BUST IN WHEAT. We stated in our last issue that '-if the theory tf rnst, as entertained by most farmers with whom wa converse, is correct, we would i " discuss the and subsoil manv reasons why "underurni:ung plowing in preparing the land, and manuring wun vfrpLihl.- if.fead of animal manures, and salt, lime or nhe.s," would prove somewhat ot a pre- j Tentative The theory is t HI? r '"that from the O . . superabundance of rin, cloudy and damp weather that causes the eap to iucrcac more rapidly man can be taken up and conveyed by the little circu lating ducts, the', being tender and brittle from the same causes, burst, and the sap that should feed the stalk turd ear exudes, and by some chem ical action of the atmosphere turns to a rusty color." Now, if this be correct, underdrainintr 1 conveys away all superabundant water collected during the winter before the wheat begins to grow. bubsouing prepares the undersoil to receive, out of the way of the growing wheat in spring, any excess of tain; the mellow soil merely holding it by capillary attraction, to be taken up in the rightful proportion by the plant without producing overluxurLnee. Vegetable manures tend to the production of fruit, and do not stimu late the growth of the stnlk and leaves of plants as animal manure. Ashes and lime Mrcugthen the body of the stalk, while salt acts as it were ''nedi'.inally by killing the minute insects that .prey uron the loot and car) I'm with a modest "itelcrcncy to tnot-e who entiitain t lie above theory, . .since our last issue wc have taken some pains to investigate the matter, an l we differ entire! v from them. The rust, as a di.sca.-c of wheat, is as oi l as the cultivation of the wheat itself. History spcaki r.oi of a lime when this rcat crop was free from j it. Every year, and wherever wheat is cultivated, in whatsoever clime, rust exists as a sure and ccr- j tain attendant of the wheat crop as much so as ( the woini is of the tobacen. It is spifkcn of in ; the libi under the n:nne of mildew; and this is , -the oldest account we liavc of the wheat crop. It . has been known in all countries, and spoken of by the oldest writers, both of prone and poetry. The ii-eese, rust, then is the (fleet of a minule plant ; f the same genus as tho smut, belonging to the yrcut tribe of "funi" the connect in;; link be- fween auiuial and vegetable life. The roots of this little j;lunt enter the pons of the wheat stem, and be i jr nourished by the sap th.it should feed the e. .1.

The New Oilcans D.dta, of the 2f.)th ult., relates the following : On Saturday last, a party landed above Caroll ton from the enemy's ships, and preceding to the abandoned fortifications, inspected iheni and tore up a small nfcdorde flag, which they found flying over the woiks. Returning down the levee, the ofliecrs met a fi ti-i Iy of ladies and children, accompanied by their servant. The Federals addressed themselves first to the ladies, and expressed a Lope that tho presence of the fleet was not a causo of fear to them.

THE NEW MILITARY OR CONSCRIPTION LAW. 9 To this law of CVngress as at firt published by 09, there wore subsequently passed several amend ments or auxiliary laws. e present the fullow inw synopsis of the law as thus modified, which w are satisfied will bo found correct, in the hope ami belief that it will prove asefal in Contributing to a . . r . . general understanding oi . The conscription law places in the service of the Confederate States, for three year, uuless the war sooner ends, all white men between eighteen and thirty five years of age. remittent in the Confederate j States, and not legally exempt irom service. ? The law is Mietit as to .exemptions; but an act ; defining the class of exempts has been passed, j which embraces generally those hitherto exempt, . w'.th some additions. . .i , , , i .

Companies, battalions, squadrons, or regiments organized, or in process of organization, by an- j thority from the Secretary of War, which may, with- ' in thirty days from the passage of the act, have the ! whole number of men necessary to complete their ! organization actually enrolled, not including, how- ' ever, in that number persons now in service, shall be j mustered into the service ot the Confederate .Mates, and be received in that arm .f the service in which they were authorized to organize, and elect their company, battalion and regimental officers.

Persons not now in service, who hall be enrolled, shall be assigned by the Secretary of War to the different companies of the Statu from whirh such persons are drawn; until each company is filh d to its maximum number.

February 18, 1862 y By the Governor of North Caroliniu A I R O -1) f j A Jl A T I O N . XORTH CAROLINIANS ! your country needs your aid for its protection and defence against an invading foe. The President of the Confederate States has made a requisition upon our State to complete her quota of troops in the field. Our own borders are invaded by the. enemy' in force, now thretcnting an advance to de prive us of liberty, property, and all that we hold dear as a self-governing aad free people. We must resist him-at all hazards and by every means in our power. He wages war for our subjugation a war forced upon us in wrong and prosecuted without right a.id in a spirit of vengeful wickedness without a parallel in the his tory of warfare among civilized nations. As you value your rights of self-government; all the blessings of freedom; the hallowed endearments of home and fireside, of family and kindred, I call upon you to rally to their defence, and to sustain the noble aad sacred cause in which wc are engaged. North Carolina has always proved trne, constant and brave in the hour of trial and of danger. Never let it be said in the future that she has failed to maintain this high renown. If we are threatened now more than heretofore, and upon our own soil, let our exertions be equal to every demand on our patriotism, honor and gh.ry. No temporary reverses dampened the arder of your ancestors, even though the enemy marched in columns through the State. The tires of liberty still burned brightly in their breasts. They were moved in new energy, and resisted by gal- hint deeds, with abiding hope and unflinchirig courage and perseverance, bravely contending with enemies at home as well the foreign foe, until, after a struggle of seven long years, our Independence was achieved and acknowledged. Let us imitate their glorious example. The enemy is redoublinghis efforts, and straining ever nerve to overrun our country and subjug:.fe us to his domination his avarice and ambition. Already it is proposed in their Congress to establish a territorial government iu a portion of our State. Now is the time to prove cur zeal and animate by our example. 1 call upon the brave and patriotic men of our State to volunteer, from the mountains to the sea. You are wanted to fill up our quota in the Confederate Army, and for the special defence of the State. I rely, with entire confidence, for a prompt and cheerful response to Ibis call upon your patriotism and valor. Tender yourselves in companies and in squads uuder officers of your own selection. Yon will be at oneo accepted and organized into regiments under the laws that are or may be made, and which it is my duty to execute. The Adjutant General of the State will issue the necessary ordcrs for this purpose. Fcllovv-Citizeus! Yuur first allegiance is due to North-Carolina. Rally to her banners. Let every man do his duty, and our country will be safe. Given under my haud aud the seal of the State, at Raleigh, this 221 of February, one thousand eight hundred aud sixiy-two. HENRY T.
