Mr. Editor: In the Planter for February I was pleased to find vour article on the an. plication of manures by ton-dressintr." and as confirmatory of vour views a tliprin . pressed, permit me to submit the results of my own practice in the premises. Some five yeai a since, when entering on my career as a farmer, I knew nothing of the merits of the several modes of applying manure ; but just then I. met with some suggestions of vour own in the Planter, and resolved to adopt them. And now I state in the eeneral that after five years reading, reflection and ex perience, 1 am satisfied of the correctness of your viewg. My practice it this: Whenever mere is manure to be carried out, I take it directly to the field or lot where it will be needed, and spread it from the wacon or cart, and I care not whether it be in the cold of winter or the heat of summer sun-shine, snow or rain. 1 pile manure neither at the stable, farm-pen, nor in the field. 1 his day (the btli of April) 1 have been carting manure to the tobacco lot there to remain in its present condition, till I go to prepare the land for hilling. "Sow, to specify some of my experiments in this regard : In 1853 I cut the pines from an old field which had been given up as ex hausted of what little native fertility it had. During the winter of '53 and '54, . I spread such manure as I could get on this Geld, throwing over the broomsedge, weeds, &.e. At one time the ground was covered with snow four inches deep, and over the now j .t. " J .1 . . me inauuic vtas sprrau. in me spring Ol '54 this field was fallowed for corn. Not intending to report the results of the experi ment, 1 was not careful to measure the corn that grew on the manured ground any esti mate, therefore, must be simply conjectural. My opinion is, that the yield was about five barrels per acre whereas, without the ma nure, perhaps a single barrel would have been j the outside. Again: In '53 I cutahe pines from another piece of exhausted land that was thickly covered with broomsedge. In August, 1854, on one of the hottest days of the season, hav ing leisure fur my horses, and mr stables j needed cleaning out, I had the manure car ried to the aforesaid piece of ground, and spread some of it lodging, I well remem : ber, on the pine brush, and some kept from the ground by the broomsedge. This land has been cultivated, and with the following results: In '55 it was followed and put in! corn, urmgtng a line heavy crop, in 50 i .sowed it in peas, preparatory to wheat. The I peas came so rank that Watt's cuflfand brace J plow, No. 7, could not cover them. In '57 1 cut fine heavy wheat from the land : anil it !.i.;al.i..,t..j ..i :.. .l:i"... i i.uiBMima "in nv 1 aii mini, IIUKIIIi: . . . . ' ,, ,,.".., I , could distinctly see where the boy threw the ' 1 last load of manure. j I state further on a part of this field, and , j near where the above manure was put, and i V .1 aBlf HH fclWvi I!S VII HIS fain If T WW I of precisely the same soil, I spread, after fal- , t, .1 . . '"U m8 '? rrOU ',"8 " -,- nr Jt frm e Stable, and oil another part, a COIII- pot ol stable manure, I am decidedly of the opinion that on neither of the last mentioned Upots have the crops of corn, wheat and peas been as good as on the first mentioned nor i the clover as good at present.

ATKINSON. Brook Dale, Dinwiddie. ----s---- Eabl Wiir.T. We published, some two or three weeks ago, a paragraph from the Richmond Whig, in relation to the early maturity of a crop of wheat grown on the farm of Charles II. Botighton, Esq., of the county of Essex. The circumstances ol the case are these : Seven year ago Mr. Uoughton found, in hi field of wheat, four head that had ripen ed some fifteen days earlier than the remain der of hi crop. He preserved the grain, and sowed it, and ha continued re-sowing it every year, until hi crop comes in, this year, at least a month earlier than usual. He lias been applied to from lime to time, to sell portion of it being offered from four to ten dollar a bushel for it but he ha refused to ell any, until he could make his entire crop from this early variety nil iHiaimir lanvi'i 11,:. i,o !.. .rmmMli.lieil ibis var. and ho it selling thi.ccd now at five dollar a bush- " ''e e""1'1 "ut ft H"! ,,r S"10" el.

U l&i Esq., Tappahannock, Va, The advantages of having a variety of wheat that matures eany are apparent to all. Most ot the acci dents and cusualtiesthatbefull the wheat crop, overtake it late in the season so that a kind that ripens early, it appears to us, would be very desirable. The wheat, besides being harvested so soon in the season, is, we un derstand, of excellent quality. Lynchburg Virginian, From the Cotton Planter and Soil. RAT PROOF CORN CRIB. Dr. Cloud Dar Sir: One of vour cor respondents in the December number of the Cotton Planter, inquires how log corn cribs could be built to prevent rats from getting into them. By cutting vour blocks two feet anu a halt, or three teet long ; cut in sugar loaf shape ; little end op, with a cap on it as large or larger than a barrel head, (or pillars built in the same shape) will effectually keep these troublesome animals out: provided, you make no other way of entrance by lean ing something against the crib, "or throwinz your corn in such bjeaps on the ground against tne cno, as to enable them to get in. trained cribs will not effect the object, unless secur ed in the same way ; for rats would not re quire longer than two nights to cut through any framed crib, when they can get to it. inepian will not put on one dollar addi tional expense, and the saving would be con siderable. The only crib. I ever saw secure from rats, was built in this way. liuild your cribs in this way, and give the corn you have been raising for rats to a better purpose. F. TIIE SEA BOY'S FAREWELL.

Chr. Treasury. Loxo Faces. What a sad mistake it is to suppose that a man should be gloomy be cause he is devout ; as if misery were ac ceptable to God on its own account, and hap piness an ollence asatnst llis dignity. A modern writer of much wisdom and pith of writing, says; xnere is a secret Deitei amongst some men that God is displeased, with man's happiness, and so they slink about creation, ashamed and afraid to enjoy anything !" These are the people of whom Hood says " Tbey think they're pious, When they're only biliou." A good man is almost always a cheerful one. It is fit that bad men should scowl, 1 and look blue, and be melancholy ; put he , who has God's smile of approbation upon1 him, should show its radiance in his coun tenance. Dr. Johnson said he " never knew a villain in Ins lile that was not, on the : whole, an unhappy dog" and well he may be. But an honest man the man with a good conscience let him enjoy his sleep, and his dinner, and the love of his w ife, anil the j prattle of his children, and show a beaming ! face to his neighbor. Purely, there is 110 worse theology than that which teaches that he who has given such fulness of joy to beasts and birds, delights in the misery of men, or that, having filled our hearts with gladness, we ought ' to give the lie to his goodness, by wearing faces beclouded with woe and furrowed with pretended unhappi ness. PLEASURES OF THE WEALTHY. In the latter part of the last century, there flourished in Paris a very wealthy "banker named Nicholas Beaujou. By his liberality, churches and hospitals were eudowed and established, tome of which even at this day bear his name. He was also at one time, the owner of the celebrated Klysce-Bnurbon, long the residence of princes and of persons of note, w hich he enlarged and embellished, and which subsequently became a roya! pal are. The fame ot his magnificence was such, that an Englishman, jealous of his reputation, was determined to satisfy himself of the fact. He called at the banker's residence, and was shown into the dining-room. The table waj covered with tempting dishes. " Your master lives well, at all events," said the sceptical son of Albion. Alas, sir," the attendant replied, " my master never sits down to table ; he partakes of only one dish of vegetables." "ell, lie has wherewithal to gratify his eyes," continued the visitor, ash looked up at the pictures. " Alas, sir, my master is nearly blind." I suppose," muttered the astonished l'n lishman, as he passed into another room, " he comforts himself by listening to beautiful music." " Alas, sir, my master ha never heard that which is played here, he goes to bed early in the hopeg'nf getting a few moment' reptwe." " Well, but your master, at all events, en joys the pleasure of a walk." Alas, sir, he can no longer w alk." So from question to question, and a1a to alas, the Englishman found that the million aire Beaujou was the most miserable of men.

THE CATIlOLnTcliuRi SLAVE QUESTION. The Archbishop and Bishop of the Catho lic church, who recently assembled in pro-, vincial council in Baltimore, have issued a pastoral letter to the clergy and laity of that denomination. Among other subject to which it refers is the slavery question. The following is an extract: " The peaceful and conservative character of our principle, w hich are adapted to every form of government and every state of socie ty, has been tested, and mado manifest in the great political struggles that have agita ted the country on the subiect of domestic slavery. Although history plainly testifies that the church has always bofrierulpil th poor and laboring classes, and effectually procured the mitigation of the evil attached to servitude, until through her mild influence it has passed away from the nations of Euro pe, yet she has never disturbed established order, or endangered the pcare of society by luiiiiwiiij- mem its 01 paiiauuiropy. , "Faithful to the teachings and example of the Apostles, she has always (aught ser. vants to obey their masters, not serving to the eye merely, but as to Christ, and in His name she commands master to treat their servant with humanity and justice, remiml ing them that they also have a Master in hea ven. We Lave not, therefore, found it ne cessary to modily our teachings with a view of adapting it to local circumstance. Among ti there ha been no agitation on this subject. Our clergy hive wisely abstained from all in--terference with the judg-meut of the faithful, which should be free on all question of poli ty and ociaI order, within the limits of the doctrine and law of Christ. We exhort you, venerable brethren, to pursue this course, o becoming the miuister of Christ and dispenser ol the mysteries ot Gud. Lt the dead bury their dead. Leave to worldling the care and anxieties of political partisan ship, the struggle for ascendency, and the mortifications of ilispptiinted ambition. Do not. in any way. identify lue inttM'Pkta if niir holy faith wt'Ji the loi tune of any party ; but, preaching peace and good will to all mankind, study only to win to truth the de luded children of error, and to merit tha confidence of your flocks, so that, becoming all to all, you may gain all to Christ." Th Mktiiodist Church Soith. The Ge neral Conference of the .Methodist Episcopal Church, in session at Nashville, has expung ed from the Book of Discipline all reference ito the subject "I buy'115 hn, ic!ing slave, According to the constitutional law of the church three fourthsnrtlieannual Conferences ! mut concur in this action, but there cannot ibea question a to the result.
