WcWro altujrethqr in earnest last week
when w suggested the idea of a. Bank at
this ptucc, with a small capital, taken by
the St"0 an individual stockholders, their
... private property being made liable for the
issues. We believe that it is the only safe
and equitobto jjanjgrj
given to the peopla of these western cotin
tics. An amount quite sufficient to relieve
us can be loaned into perfectly safe hands,
and circulated through the' country 'K and ns
wc are emphatically a money -making peo
ple, our industry, frugality and persever
ance will soon enable un to refund the
amount borrowed, and place us in easy and
independent circumstances., We do not
know what we huve to hopo on this subject,
r.ot having mentioned it to a single member
elect of the Legislature ; but from what we
know of tho members from (newest, .we
ar inclined to believe that they would favor
the project; at least, we arc sure tho most
of them would unhesitatingly give it their
..support, if they took the samo view of it

speaking of the offices tlw filling f winch

says, that nono of the Whig tribo w!i (ill

and may therefore bo considered as an ex

by mere chance has the ascendancy in tho

From almost every quarter complaints
are pouring in upon us that our paper either
.does not come at all, or comes one, two or
thn.-e nviils behind tho proper timo. Wq
ju ii ui io couqiiuin wuere inero is no
c.uim; moreover, whilo tho evils of which
we might havo a right to complain aro en
durable ; but, when our interest is so deeply
involved in .the punctuality with which our
PnptT i3 published "and forwarded ; and
when alter it has been regularly worked off,.
H'Terly enveloped anudllTesiedjnd car--ried

caiiimt reach subscribers in this and adjoin
ing counties for several mails aflepublica
Hon, and in some instances not at all for
two of three wceksln succession forbear
nce ceases to be a virtue. Why our sub
scribers at Greenville, S. C, only sixty
miles distant from this on the main stan)
route from here to Charleston should be two
or three weeks at a time without receiving
their papers, wo cannot tell ; or why those
at several offices in Henderson county
hou!J not receive their papers for a week
or ten days after they aro regularly due,
wo cannot tell ! We know not where the
detention is ; but wherever it may be, wo
beg thoso. concerned to remedy it in future.
U is true that twico within tho last two
months, owing to circumstanccs over which
Wo. had no control, a portion of our papers
were not sent to the post office at the regu
v iar time. This was also the case last week
m consequence of a delay in tho publication
jf the paper incident to tho removal of the
printing office. We shai! continue to make
all possible efforts to have the paper regu
larly published, and do hope that all post
masters through whose offices it may pass
will' see that there ia no unnecessary deten.

ip OCT What strange things pass before the
flyi'"f one who every week looks over
some eighty or an hundred nowspapers
gathered from all parts of the Union ! For
instance among the many marriage noli.
ces wo sco of lato in our exchanges, are
tho following : Married, Mr. John Going to
Mrs. A. Head That," cries the.editor,
"is what wo call Going.A.JIead. - - '
m Again Mr. Levi All to Miss Jane W.
Wright, Allrighli cries the printer. .
Then another hcads-JUa marriage notice
with V Short and Sweet," und proceeds to
inform his readers that Mr. James Short is
married to Miss Elizabeth Sweet J ,
' Another announces tho marriage of Mr.
Jonas North to Mias West, and .tben deli-
berately gives it as his opinion that the ma-
trimonial squalls will be regular. "Ttorti-tcetf-crs."

But the worst, case of all is that of a
Southern editor, who when publishing the
lawful marriage of Mr. James Dan? to Miss
Mary Day, very soberly adds, J Every
dog must have his day ,
However, as editors get littlo thanks and
less money, it may bo welt enough for them
occasionally to have a littlo fun.

We. published Mr. Clay's speech lust week
upon Uie authority of the editor of tho Lex-
ington Observer, whom we think should be
considered as creditable a witness as an
anonymous writer in the New York Tri-
bunc. We noticed tho article in the Jefllr
sonian, but thought it unworthy of "notice,
as the idea of Mr. Clay's being unfriendly
to the institutions-of the south, is too pre
posterous for serious attention. The Ian
guage used in the article below is not fmmd
in Mr. Clay's speech as - reported by the
editor ol tho Lexington Observer.

Dear sir, We need a spirit of perse,
verance and the Divine blessing! and we
need, nothing else to insure complete and
triumphant success in the temperance cause.
Tho laws of nature are not more certain
than it is, that the operation of temperance
societies promote Industry, economy, "Intel
ligence, and -virtue 5 and for those distin
guished blessings in possession and in pros,
pect, and for the invaluable improvement in
our pecuniary, intellectual, and moral con:
ditiou, permit me, my dear sir, to say I fee!
under great obligation to yourself in tho
outset, and to the subsequent efforts and
success, of tho Turkey Creek Temperance
Society; And for your continued efforts in
this cause, you hafe,and 1 trust Wiltalways
have,' our ardent prayers and co operation.
Should all iho inhabitants of. the United
States cease to use intoxicating liquors, the
following would bo somo of the beneficial
results : ' ' ' - .
1. Not an Individual would hereafter be.
come a drunkard. ' ' '
2. Many who are now drunkards would
reform," and would be saved from the
drunkard's grave. '
3. As soon as those who would not re
form shonld bo dead, which would be but a
short time, not a drunkard would be found ;
and the whole land would bo free. '
4. Jvloro than three-fourths of all tho
pauperism and crime would be prevented.
5. Loss of property in our generation,
to an amount creator than the present value
of all the houses and lands in the United
States, might be prevented.
6. Uno of the greatest dancers to our
frco institutions, to tho perpetuity of our
government, and to all the blessings of civil
and-r4igious liberty , would-be- removod.
7. 1 he efficacy of Ihe Gospel, and all
the means which God has appointed for the
spiritual and eternal good of man, would
be exceedingly augmented : and the same
amount of moral and religious effort might
boxpected-to- produee-more-han double
its present eliects.
.. 8. Multitudes of every generation .through
all future ages, midit be prevented from
sinking into an untimely grave, and into
endless torment, ihey might be trans
formed into the Divine image, and prepared
through grace fonhe endless joys of heaven.
9. i ho concurrent testimony of the most
distinguished is, that intoxicating liquor is
a rank aud deadly poison ; and that, in its
effects, it resembles arsenic, and though
slower in its operation, it is not less certain
and destructive in its results. It is the
prostration of tho health, tho destruction of
the human constitution, the ruin of morals,
the accumulation of crimes, tho sum total of
iiumau wickedness and liuman misery; the
derangement and stupefaction of the intel
lect, tho oblivion of cyery social and reli
gious obligation, the extinction of the love
of honor in" tho human breast, and tho un
nihiltttiou of every high and holy feeling uf

Walter C. Young's com crop.
W 0 perceive that some of the Eastern cdi
torsTrrspeakingof MrrYoimg's corn cropy
195 bushels to the acre, say they presume
of course that it was not shelled corn.
When we say thatir. Young produced 195
bushels of corn to the acre, wo mean corn.
If it had been 195 bushels of corn and cobs
it would not have been so extraordinary.
Mr. Geo. W. Williams, of Bourbon county,
Ky., had previously produced 187 buihels
to the acre ;' but Mr. Young's crop goes far
beyond even that, and it. was" precisely bo
cause it did so far transcend the highest
recorded crop, that we deemed it of such
vital importance to make Mr. Young's
method known. That Mr. Young did pro
duce 195 bushels to the acre, we feel just
as certain as that we now hold a pen in
our hand. It was measured by as respecta
genllcmen as any in 'Jessamine county,
gentlemen appointed for tho purpose by the
Jessamine Agricultural Society. And let
it be remembered that this was no first ex
pecimcnt on a single acre. The corn was
planted and cultivated according to the me
thod long adopted by Mr. Young, and his
whole crop was pronounced equal to the
five acres measured. This extraordinary
crop was produced in 1840, a year very fa
vorublo to corn : but we are told by Mr.
Young, that in tho dryest years, he does
not get less than 100 bushels to the acre.
Here then is not book farming," but a
method of cultivation practised for years
by a plain practical, but intelligent farmer.
Here then is actual experience for a course
of years, the very thing the farmer says he
must have before ho can bo convinced. Bui,
reader, are you convinced? No.. You can
not get round tho experience, provided it
was an experience, and you witl take a
short way of evading the matter, by simply
saying that you don't, believe a word of the
whrtfe-siory. :
Strange ns it may seem, these worthy
farmers that go so strrmg for facts and n
perience, and who yet deny all facts and all
experience that do not tally with their own
notions these very farmers are fond of ar-
gt nml V.Ur vnstiy tr h.ivo ttm rtmsnn or
rationale of things explained ; and many of
them will yield to a theory which will not
listen toa"fic. Well, then, lot us look
into.thc theory of Mr. Y'a practice. Hear
him.
41 My universal rule is, to plough my com
land the fall preceding tho spring when I
plant ; and as early in tho spring as possi.
bio I cross-plongh us deep as circumstances
will permit ; ns soon as this is done, I com
mence checking off tho first way with my
larco ploughs, and the second with my
. .' ai i ; i i 7T
ismall ones ihe checks three feet by three,
admitting of working tho land both ways.
And then I plant my corn from the 20rh
to the 25th of March a rule to which I ad.
here with scrupulous exactness, planting
from eight to twelve grains in each hill,
covering. the samo from four to six incites
deep, greatly preiermg the latter iieptn. so
soon as my corn is up of sufficient height, I
soon as my corn ls upoi suiuciem ueigm, 1
start thc-la rge harrow - di reclly overThe
.. . . 0 . . - it
rows, allowing a norsc 10 wait cucii siuo ;
harrowing the way the corn was planted ;
and on land prepared as above and harrow,
ed as directed, the hoeing part will be so
completely performed by this process, that
it will satisfy the moat sceptical. Then al
lowing the corn thus harrowed, to remain a
fgw days, 1 start my small ploughs with the
bar next the corn; and so nicely will this
be done, that when a row is thus ploughed,
so completely will tho intermediate spaces,
hills &c, be lapped in by the loose earth,
occasioned by this system of close plough,
ing, as to render any other work useless for
a time. . I .thin to four stalks upon a hill,
never having to tronsplant,v the second
ploughing being performed with tho mould,
board towards tho rows of corn ; and so
rapid has been the growth of the corn, be
tween tho first and second ploughings,that
this is performed with ease; and when in
this stage, I consider my crop safe ; mygenc
ralrule being, never to plough my corn
moro than four times, and harrow once.
My practice is, to put a field in corn two
successive years, then grass it and let it lie
ci"ht years a rule from which I never de
viate. Now I do not pretend that the labor
bestowed upon a sod field to put it in a state
-'. ' . " (. . v , '' ' -v .
of thorough cultivation, docs not meet with
a lair equivalent from one crop ; but I pre,
sumo no farmer will doubt when I say the
ser.nfwt vpnr'i imn fmm unit In nil ia Katto

ine jaDor. lne hes system or larmmg is

iom mo smanesi amount 01 moor." : ;
TbatUalk. '.. , v
. Chatting with a friend the other, day,
while we were looking over his farm, and
at tho time examining a piece of corn, I
asked the reason. why a few rows near the
centre of the' field were so much superior
to the others ? . "
" Oh, that is an old balk," was his reply.
41 Can you tell me," 1 said, " why that
strip of land is so much richer.thaa iho
other part of tbo field, as the luxuriance of
tho corn proves it to bo VJ .
-In tho first place an old fenco has stood
there for years, while the fields on each side
wcro under cultivation to somo extent,"
was the reply. .
" But vou do not sunposo that the old
fenco contributed much to tho furulity ol
the soil where it stood ?" ,
' No, but when thuelda were cropped :
the corners of tho fence grew up to grass,
which was undisturbed and rotted ; or when
in pasture, as much of the time it was, tho ,
sheep would lie along by tho fence Jo get
out ol the sun, and drop much of their ma-'
nure there ; all these causes combined have
given tho fertility you see." ,i -
" 1 ho result of tho matter then is. I
said, 44 the richness has been given by the
addition of manure in the shapo of decayed
v-;ctablc matter, and animal manure : for
it is not reasonable to suppose that rest
alone, has added much to it3 productive
ncss." K You are probably about right ," said my
friend. . , " .
44 Well then, if so, would it not bo best
to make tho whole farm into baulks?"
44 Yes, certainly; but how could it be
done?"
44 By simply applying to every part of
the farm, as much decomposed vegetable
and animal matter as i3 (bund in that. In
short manure the whole as effectually as
that strip has been, and all will boas pro
ductive and rich." Nature herself has point
ed outthe way to renovate our soils it is
for" "ufT to closely fotlow her footsteps, and
profit by her teachings."

Planting Fucit Tuees on the sides of
Hills. Dodart first observed that trees
pushed their brunches in a direction paral
lel to the-surfuce of the earth. If a tree
stands on a steep, it pushes both towards
the hill 'aud 'towards the declivity; but on
both sides it still preserves its branches pa.
railel to the surface. As there is an attrac
tion between the upper surfaco of leaves,
and light, (says Dodart,) I am also per
suaded, though notcquallyccrtainofitfrom
experiment, that there is an attraction of the
samo nature between tho under surface" of
leaves and the surfaco of tho earth. This
I consider the cause of tho phenomenon.
I had long observed that tho most fruit,
ful orchards and thu most fertile trees, arc
those planted on a declivity, and tho steeper
it is, though not quite a precipice, the more
foi tiio will they prove.
It is avcII known . that the spreading of
trees always renders them fruitful. On a
plain, however, they incline to shoot up
wards : and therefore art is called in by skil
ful gardnc.rs, and applied in various ways
to check their perpendicular, and to promote
their lateral growth. But this point, which
can only be gained on a plain by art, is ob.
tained on a declivity by nature. There a
tree loses itsteudency to sooot upwards, and
in orner to preserve Us branches" paratkr
with thu suilVcu, is eunsTnrfiigdrtgTTiat Them
