THE "WEEKLY LINCOLN PROGRESS. JicM and Janu, TOBACCO, J On' the Cultivation and Curing ho I "Bright Wrajypers." By Maj, Itobt. L. Bagland, of Halifax bounty, Va. !. , Burn and sow in good time a suffl- ciency of plant land, in good, warm situations for early plants. Use Gil j ham's Tobacco Fertilizer, when sovr ;ing the seed, 100 to 150 pounds to the 500 square yards, according to the 'fertility of the land burned. If neces sary to force the plants along, use the fnanie Fertilizer in smaller quantity as ia top-dressing, observing to apply the Fertilizer when the plants are not fxct with rain or dew. 1 To prevent depredations by the .fly, -use ground plaster, in which rags sat inratcd with ( kerosene oil have been laid for. some hours, and cover the plants, if necessary, with the plaster thus prepared. The "Yellow Oronoko" and "Silky Pryor" are the kinds best adapted to coal-curing, while grey soils, (and the fresher the better,) with dry, porous subsoil, are best adapted- to the growth Five years' experience m the use oTT unnam s xooacco ertiiizer has con vinced the writer that it is the plant , erVbest aid in the production of rich, silky, bright, yellow tobacco. Lands ca pable of producing yellow tobacco need just such help as is furnished. by this Fertilizer, in hastening the growth and giving size, substance and early maturity to the plants From 100 to 300 pounds per acre of the Fertilizer .may be profitably used. Apply in the drill, except on new ground, where this mode is inapplicable, and broad casting is best. Plant in hills instead of bed, as soon after the 10th of Hay as -plants and seasons ".will admit. Commence cultivation as soon as the plants begin to spread over the hills, whether grassy or not, and continue to stir the land with ploughs and hoes till the tobacco begins to come in top, using short singletrees as- the I slants increase in, size, ,to prevent creaking and brusing. When the plants are too " large to admit the .plough, use only hoes to keep down the grass and weed ' "VN ait till a considerable number of plants begin to button for seed, before you "commence to top, then.these will ripen about the same time. Topping must be done according to the ap pearance and promise of. each plant, strength of soil, and time the work is done. First topping for medium to bacco should be from ten to twelve leaves, rarely more, priming off lower leave, neither too high nor too low, but just high enough so that when the plant ripens the lower leaves may be well off the ground ." continue topping--vrntsa advances to top lower arid lower, so as to bring in the late - plants before frost, The plough should not be used la ter than the 1st day of August, as ploughing late keeps the tobacco green too long, and may cause it to ripen of a green color. The hoe should be re lied on after ?that time to clean the crop. r. ' ' ': . After the tobacco begins to grain, that is, to, ripen, neither plough nor hoe should be used, as it has been found best to sacrifice pounds to col or. : - .' The plants, after being topped, should be kept clear of worms, or bet ter stillr kill the tobacco fly with co balt in the flowers of the "Jamestotcn weed," and the suckers should be pulled off before they grow too long. Mind, do not be in a hurry to cut your tobacco before fully ripe, and enough fully and uniformly ripe to fill a barn; . Have your barns close, (logJones are best,) well daubed and dry. Cut the tobacco of uniform size, color and quality,' putting about seven medium plants to an ordinary four and a half feet stick. "Let the plants go from the cutter's hands over the siickTin the hands of a holder, who will serve two cutters. When the stick is -filled, it should go directly without touching the ground, on a Tvagon ! to be carried, when loaded, (not - too heavily) to the barn; It will take from seven hundred to eight hundred sticks of tobacco to.' fill- a bam twenty feet square, with five rooms, and four firing tiers1 below joists, placing the stick's about ten inches apart, the ; proper distance- for medium tobacco. As soon -as the barn is properly filled, and the tobac co regulated on sticks and tiers, fires of coal or hickory wood should be builtin the barn, four fires in a row under each room, thus, giving twenty nres-tA,a-Jrnweiitv4eet-uare xi niuK-ory woou is uou, let it oe bap ling wooa,'cut about two feet long, and green or partially dry. "Next to coal, hickory furnishes the best yellowing-heat. The first step in curing is called the steaming or yellowing process. Me dium tobacco will require about thirty-six: hour steaming at about ninety degrees Fahr. to yellow sufficiently, but tobacco with more or less .sap, larger or smaller, may require longer or .shorter time to yellow. Here the judgment of the curer must be his guide. Inexperienced planters would Dissolve an ounce of the cobalt of the shops in a pint and a half of water, and mix it with molasses, or other syrup, bot tle it, and drop it through a quill into the heart of the blossom. It should be done about sundown, and the poisoned flowers pulled off next day, otherwise the plant will be destroyed. It has been found that this weed, so treated, planted around the edge of the tobacco lot, arid here and there through the patch, will prevent, to a great extent, the ravages of the tobacco worm. All the planters, however, in one neigh borhood must act together, and this can be arranged through the local agricultural club. - - . do well to procure the services of an experienced curer, if they have to bacco suitable for coal curing. The planter saves in the enhanced value of his crop many times the money paid to the curer; and besides, by close observation, he may learn in one season to cure well himself. Theory alone, however good, and directions, however minute, will not dhere, but it, is' practice that must qualify one to cure well. ' The next step in curing yellow to bacco is called fixing the color. "When the tobacco is sufficiently yellowed at ninety deg. Fahr.," the best leaves of a uniform yellow, and the greener ones of a light pea-green color, it is time to advance the heat gradually but cauti ously. Keep the heat from ninety to ninety-five degrees Fahr., say about one hour, then run up from ninety five to one hundred degrees, keeping the heat between those figures for about two hours, observing to let the mercury descend a little every time after rising, before putting on more coal- coal only should be used now. This is done to prevent sweating the tobacco, a continuous heat operating more to: do that than a fluctuating one as described. Should the tobacco get into a sweat at this or any , future becoming damp and limber, as though partially scalded, raise the fires a lit tle, and open the door ; this creates a current of heated air, that will soon dry out the leaf. The thermometer may fall even ten degrees here without injury to the color. It is advisable, however, that the tobacco be kept free from sweating, if possible. Next ad vance the heat, running from one hun dred to one hundred and five for about'fuw hours. When at one hun dred and five degrees you have ar rived at the most critical point in the difficult process of curing bright to bacco. l)he condition and appear ance of the tobacco must be the cur er's guide. ; No one can successfully cure tobacco till he can distinguish the effects of too much or too little heat at this important stage. I will try to explain what is very plain to every experienced curer, but unknown to the beginner. .. Too little heat in fixing color oper ates to stain the face side of the leaf cf a dull Spanish brown color, and is called sponging, and may be known to the novice by its effects being visible only on the face side ; .too much heat reddens the leaf, first in spots, visible on the edge of the leaf, redder than the former," and visible on both sides of the leaf. Now, to prevent sponging on the one hand, and spoting on the other, is the aim of the experienced curer. Therefore, no difinite.time can belaid down to run from one hun dred and five to one hundred and ten degrees. Sometimes one hour is suffi cient, sometimes three is fast enough. The same day may be ejdid in running from one bTmrWa -rrSQQ to one nun area1 ana tKZ- grccs: While it is usual to advance in this stage about five degrees . every two hours for medium tobacco, the condi tion of the tobacco often indicates .to the practiced eye the necessity for slower or. faster movements. Re member, not to advance over " one hundred and ten degrees till the tails begin to curl up slightly at the ends. Arrived at one huudred and twenty degrees, this is the curing process. The heat should remain at or near one hundred and twenty degrees, till the leaf, is cured, which takes from four to eight hours, according to cir cumstances. When the leaf appcars cured, advance five degrees every hour up to one hundred and 'seventy degrees, and here remain till stalk and stem are' cured. To run above one hundred and eighty degrees is to endanger scorching the' tobacco, and perhaps burning both barn and tobac co. To recapitulate : . t- - 13 O u to o o -- tn C3 - ES O CO CO u a rfl O to Q .

If warm, rainy, or damp seasons occur soon after, dry out the tobacco with coal fires, re membering to commence with small fires, as when curing, and gradually raise them, , till the tobacco is well dried. ' It is important to attend strictly to this, for if your tobacco, is cuped yellow, it will not remain so if, soon after curing, it is suffered to get in too ahigh order," that is, absorb too much moisture. When ready to strip, it should be assorted well, the several grades put together, making about three grades of leaf, and two of lugs. Tie in neat bundles fiveor six leave of "leaf" and eight to ten of "lugs" Place twenty-five .bundles on the stick, and strike down as soon as stripped, unless in too high order. But it is not safe to permit tobacco thus struck down in winter order to remain down longer than the 1st of June. Watch it closely to preserve from injur'. It is better j to market in winter order than to hang up in the! barn to dry out and bo "re-order," for tobacco once balked dowii and then hung up in the barn again loses, that sweet, mellow flavor so de sirable, and never regains it when prized. Pack neatly in tierces heads making the best (half hogs and most economical), to weigh from four hun dred to nve hundred pounds nett. Take care that the tobacco be not Eressed so as to stick together or be ruised ; and let each tier:e be filled with tobacco uniform in calor, length and quality.

P A Ghost Story, We do no give much!' credence to ghost stories, but the following, ap pears so intrinsically reasonable, that we cannot for a moment doubt its truth. That apparition do not al ways wander without sufficient cause, is proved by the well attested fact which we give below; - "Last Tuesday as Mrs. -, a lady of literary tastes and studious habits sat reading in her drawing rooni, the clock on the : mantle jpicce Btruck twelve jas the last stroke reverberated through the. apartment, tpe door flung wide open ; in the act of raising her head to repel the intrusion (unrung for) of her servant, her eyes rested on the form of her late hhsband. She screamed and fell sensele ss on the car pet. This brought up such members of the family as had r ot retired to rest ; restoratives were administered, and when Mi's. had regained her suspended faculties, and being a wo man of strong mind anc highly culti vated intellect, she felt disposed to con sider the whole distress she had un dergone as the result of certain asso ciations between the melancholy tale she had been perusing and her 'late loss, operating upon a partially de ranged nervous systen:. She, how ever, considered it advisable that her maid servant should repose in her chamber, lest any returji of whatUhc considered a nervous affection should distress herself and alarm the farriilv. Last Tuesday night, feeling strorifrerj '---i-&elsr stunts thailshe hatTtLfeT mm oiuriis man sue naq iwen for some mpnths past, Mrs.--1- -dispensed with thelpresence of per attendjmt, 'retiring alone .to her chamber, land went to bed a little before ten o'cltdk. Exactly as ihe deck struck t waive, she was awakened frcyJ ejrjleep, bud distinctly , beheld the apparition 'she had seen before, advancing from the table, (on whioh stood Her night lamp) till it stood opposite to and drew the curtains of her bed. She described her! very blood retreating with , icy dullness to her heart from every vein. The countenance of Iicr beloved in life wore not its benevolent aspect; the eyes beaming with affection were now fixed with stern regard on the trembling half dissolv 3d oeing, who, with the courage of dc speratiori, thus adjured him : . - "Charles I dear Charles 1 Why are you come again ft "Jessie !" slowly and ed the shadowy form, solemnly gasp- waving in nis hand a small paper, "Jessie, pay my newspaper accounts' Ut me rest Ui peace! . J "Where did the Rich Man oJ Little Johnny was preparing for sun-day-school, school situated; some dis tance away, when his mother saw one of His neighbors approaching' in his vehicle. This nighbor, by the way was called "thd rich man," being both wealthy, kind-hearted, and liberal to the poor. Johnny ran out, and the rich man took him into his vehicle, ano he was going. rig it past th Sunday-school. It ' was a very hot day, and so Johnny took of his u shoes and stockings to keep himself coofcUWhen they arrived, the exercises had already begun, and as the man- was going to church about a mile beyond, and had agreed to call for Jojmny on his re turn, he concluded not to put on' his shoes and. stockings i i-gain, but leave them in the vehicle. So he tripped lightly into school, and the man drove ; His teacher, was; just hearing1, .the lesson, wmcn, oy tn way, Johnny was not acquaintea witn, wnicn was the. fate ot the rich Lazarus. Soon after man and poor Johnny took his seat it came to his tiirn to answer a question. "Johnny can you tell me where the rich man went? "He went to the sir," replied the little lad, thinking only of his late comrjanion. "No, no, my son, the rich man went to hell," said the teacher, with great impressivne8s, while he other schol ars f were tittering wijh laughter. - "Did he?" exclaimed the bov in all honesty. "Then he shoes and stockings nas taken my with him," and W0 up he jumpedj and seizing his hat, he put out of the schooj-room and down the road to recover his property; 'How hollow it sounds !' said a pa tient under the movement cure, as the physician was vigorously pounding his I chest. .
