Tho artichoke is but very little known as a f-irm crnr yet, nod its nmperties aud II u uubcnuwo vr upprvLioicj as itiry j . . . j . .1 to grow. It seems to thrive on almost every kmdof toil, and is kss affected by the seasons than any other crop with which I amacquin ted. . UI its ability lo withstand Irosts and se vere drough., I bati the fullest proof :ihe iast asua. it line uh otuer crops in tins secltoi f country werb nearlv destroved by thes in flt nces, my field of artichokes stood out, in bold relief, us if in defiance ol the worst wea ther thai could bluw; grew on and produced splendid crop.

I have fed these roots to all kinds of stock and they all seem to relish them much. Th two last seasons I have fed them to my whole flock of sheep, and the cfleel evidently was to increase tne growth ot wool nnd cause the ewea toyield an abundance of milk, as shown by the large fleeces and the fin, thriftv and vigoreui Jambs. Previous to uinir artichokes jl fed potatoes in the same manner, but I give 'the former a decided preference. - i ;, I have tried several modes of cultivating the artichuke. f The plan I would recommend is to put the ground in good order.' as for nota iocs or corn; then with a plough open furrows four inches deep and three feet apart, as crt r- int. A.. ,.....M.I.. i .!.. . - I . I. I iiiSih,uj jjuaaimu,:u iiiui a piougu or culti vator can work between, close to the rows. 1 hen drnp the sets ten inches apart in the fur rows, (if large sets tire used, they can be cut into pieces ol three er four eieseach, like po. tutbes,) then cover with a ploagh, apd smooth witn a light harrow, j , The after-culiurcj to consist ofa thorough harrowing about the time the first plants make ineir appearance, followed by two or three uressmg wi;h a cultivator on suitable-inter-i vals during the early pari ol summer nothin more is necessary io insure a cood cron. . I generally leave the cmn in the ground till 'ihe frost' is t in the spring, I then plough me groutui and gather nil the roots that can be found,' the plough again atH'g ither again. When all are.' gathered that ran be found in this way,1 there will be enough roots left to fill i. i ground with plants for, a new crop. .. .ic-iuiv ounjj piams appear aoove ground , that is necessary to be done is to go tit rough with a cultivator and cut them up in such a manner as to leave rows as when first planted. jo repealing im cultivating.

This letter was mailed on the 2d of March, nt Che raw, S. C , and must trivo riael.eJ- Raliogh on tho 3rd at night; ut.J on the 5ih of March I again addressed him a letter, feaiing a miscarriage.

' O.i my return home from Anson C uirt, 1 found a leiter from ihe Editor ot ihc Sund. ard, dated tl.e 8th of March. He ackimwt edge the reccp-ion of( rnv two letters, but said nothing t bout rny. letter of necrptancp, which I know he must have rtcritcd, f.it bvth letters referred lo it. He stated thai Use rr embers of ihc'Commitlce about Raleigh had written lo the oilier member nf the Com- miite in different p trts of the S.ate; n-quet-ing among other thingi, that they would ex press a preference betw-en Ja. B. Shepnid nnd myself, and thi as soon i.h ihe-y were heard from, a CmdiJitc would bo,?brou"hl forward.

In conclu.ionrit will be seen whether the Democratic party of the?

' For one I am lo bo. dictated to b ti.i sncl. irrenponsibli! clique; and whet!

In truth, the Convcnlion ha j iiotjihi pow er to give; they were but themselves the re iK-cnon ot tne people; and when tit- y had iriminated, their power was at nn cud. In any thing I say, I do! nol intend to eensu., in ihe most remote degree thoc membeni of the Commit! re who reside out of the c-ii of Raleigh. They arc n.t in tho! idiglu, i degree responsible fir what Ins beeii brTnight about; and from mv knowledge ofthe -nM... men, although they m;iy have preferred Mr.'!

In this I feel partly warranted, from tne hiirhmtnded and honnniblo rfw.rco ..hLr.h Judge Strange pursued, for although not hav. ing the least agency in bringing me out, yet, when notified of ibe fact, he magnanimity "Iternptcd to pcnir oil upon iho Tioliiica'l waves. - I To you the subject "matter. is referred, and I most cheerfully abid. your decision..
