"MISCELLANEOUS. Tfli POSITION Or AMERICAN FARMERS. Chaptkr iu WIUT THE COUNTRY HAS LOST BY IMPOVERISHING ITS SOILS. Taking the census of 1840 as the basis of (be calculation, and adding no more than the usual increase, and the number now employed in agriculture in the U in ted Statrs iocs oot vary much from 5,000,000 Tbe number of acres winch they cultivate is noi knon. l' he State of New York there ire some 12,000,000 acres of improved land, which includes all meadows and enclosed pastures. This area employes about 500,00 Jiborers ; being an average of twenty-lour acres tn the 4iaud. At this ratio, the num ber ol acres of improved land in the United States is I0,u0i,OUO.

The fertility of some, particularly in the planting State, is passing rapidly away ; in other., tile progrts. of exhaustion is so sluw u hiruly to be observed by the cultivators LbtiuS-Wes. To keep within the truth, the annual income trout the soil may be 8tid to be diiiiiinslit-d ten cents an'ncreon one nun dreil millions acres, or on four filths of tbeTof whole. This loss of income is $10,000,000, and equal to the Sinking of a chipilal ol $166, 6o6,000 a year, paying six percent, annual iutt-nsu That unproved fanning lauds may be justly regarded as capital, and a fair m. vestment when paying six per cent, interest, and perfectly sate, no one will de er. Tins deterioration is not unavoidable; for thousands ol skilful farmer have taken fields puur in point oi natural productive- j nes, nd instead of diminishing their fertil- I it r, nicy h ive added ten cents au acre to tin i r annual income, over and above all ex- 1 penses. II this wise and improving sys tem ol rotation, tillage and husbandry were universally adopted, or applied to the one hundred million acres now being exhausted, it would be equivalent to creating each year an auditional capital ul $166,666,000, and placing it in permanent. leaf estate, where it would pay six per cent, annual interest. For all practical purpose?, the difference be tween me two systems is $333,3113,000 a year, to the country. There is another view of ibis important subject, winch is worthy of profound con sideration. Of the 12,000,000 acrs ol im proved land in the Stale oi iNcW -York, 1, OOO.OOO are so cultivated as to become rich er Iroui year to year. Thse improving soils are in the hands of 40,0. 0 cultivator., who like, and read agricultural journals, and no bly sustain the -Stale and county societies ol mat Ciimno. wealth. 3,000,000 acres -ol the 12.OJO.000 are so uiaua&eti as barely to noid ttieir owu in point ol l.it.lity. Tl.ese lauds belong to a class ot farmers who do as well as tney know from personal observation, and see iff hjw readme men improve their esUt.s and domestic annuals. 8,000,000 are in the hands of 30,000 persons, wu sun adnete to the colonial practice of extracting from the virgin soil all it will yield, so long as it will pay expanse to crop it, and then leave it as thin pour pasture for a term ot years. Some oi these impoverished lariu, winch seventy-five years ago produced Iroui twenty to thirty bushels ol wheat, on an av erage, now yield only from five to eight busuels. In an exciedingly interesting work eoli.K d "American Husbandry," pub lished in lndou in 1775, and written by "An Ameiicau," the following remarks may be lound on page 96, vol. 1. "Wheat in many parts of the province New York yields a larger produce than is common in England. Upon good lands about Albany, win re the climate is the col dest in ibe country, they sow two bmhels and better upn one acre, and reap from twenty to forty ; the latter quantity, bower, er, is not oleu had, but from twenty to thir ty are common ; and with such bad husban dry as would noi yield the like in England, and much less lu Scot land. This is owing to the richness and freshness of the land." Accoroi.-g to the Sute census of 1845, Albany county now produces ouly 1 bush els ot wheal per acre, although its farmers are on tide-water and near the capital oi the State, with a good home market, and pos sess every facility fur procuring the ino.t valuable fertilizers. Ducness count v, also on Ibe Hudson river, produces an average of only 5 bushels per acre, Rensselaer 6, Westchester 7 which is higher than the average of soils that once -ve a return lar ger man the wheat lands ol England, even with "bad husbandry." F..I:y to renovate the 8,000,000 acres of partially exhausted lands in the State of New Yutk, will cost at least an average ol $12 50peracr!, or an aggregate of $lOu,000, 0.0. It is not an easy task to replace all the bone-earth, potash, sulphur, magnesia, and organized nitrogen IU mold, consumed in a field which has been unwisely cultiva ted titty or seventy-five years. Pnosphorus is not an abundant mineral any where ; and this subsoil is about the only resource of hus bainiui.ii after bis sut face soil has lost most of its phosphates. The 300,000 persons that cultivate these 8,000,000 acres of impoverished soils annu ally pioduoe less by 8 5 each, than they would if the laud had not been injured. The agggate of this loss to tbe State and the world is $7,500,000 per annum, or more than 7 per cent- interest on what it will cost to renovate the deteriorated soils. 1 here is no possible escape from this oppressive tax n Ubur of $7,500,o00. but to improve the land, or run off and leave it. That tbe latter has been done to a la rue extent is shown by comparing tbe population in ru ral disincts, at the census ot 1830, with that of 1.40. In nearly half the towns in the State, population bad decreased notwilh Undin? the ranid Growth ol cities and vil lages, demanding an increase of farm labor See Dumas Balance of Organic Nature. 11 era to uppty the mere local marktli. The canal el New York have operated to hasten the exhaustion of its coils just a a railroad to California would aid ip extracting; sold dust Iroui its now unwashed sauds. While the canals, and railroads of New York con vey a thousand tons of the few precious atoms n the surlace of the earth, wmcn can alone torui bread and meat, to tide-water, they do not carry back from tide water one ton ol the raw inaii rial for making crops of any kind. A million tons of human? food pass down the Mississippi where one Ion of the elements of such loud ascends "the father of waters." It will be seen, on refering to the census of 1840, that the five Slates of Maryland, Virginia, North nd South Carolina, and Georgia, employed at that time 1,013,463 persons in agriculture. Uf this number Maryland had 69 851 ; Virginia 318,771 ; North Carolina 217,095, South 198,363, and Georgia .09,S83. Carolina It is a statistical question of considerable inqioriauce, to determine how much less these laborers, and the mules, horses, and oxen which they work, annually produce, than they would had no acre of the arable lands in these Slates, so highly favored by climate and fertility, been d imaged in tbe least by improper tillage. The difference in the cost ot making crops on poor laud is really much greater than is generally sup posed. The shrewd farmers of Massachu setts prefer giving sixty cent, per bushel for western corn, to growing th.s grain on tneir infer. lie soil : while the corn-growers Indiana and Illinois are ild to sell their crops, made on rich land, at twenty cents a bushel. From these facts, is not the infer ence plain and satisfactory, that it costs three tunes more to produce a bushel of com on poor than on rich laud I To do lull justice to this interesting prob. lem, "By what means, aud to what extent, the soils of the five States above-named have been injuiedT' would fill a volume. A res idence of more than two years in the most southern of these States, connected with its agricultural press, and devoting much time to the study of soils aud their products, will warrant the writer in expressing an opinion on the weight ol evidence collected Iroui ail sources within his reach. The annual loss on the labor of each hand and mule is Reliev ed to be $30. This estimate is too high on some plantations, aud too low o.-i others. The only reason why so many slaves have been sent South during the last 25 years (and thousands sent out of Georgia,) is, lh.it tne labor of a person is worth twice as much to cultivate rich, fresh land, as poor, old land. If the estimate of a yearly loss of $80 off each hand, and the domestic animals which he works, ue not loo men, men me aggre gate exceeds thirty millions of dollars. This is equivalent to having sunt, a productive jpit 1 tuvesl.-d in farming lands, at a cheap rate, office hundred millions of 'dollars, y iclu mg 9 percent, annual interest. While Eng land aud France have d rived hundreds Oi millions ol profit aud revenue from tne to bacco and cotton exported from Georgia, the Cu.olin.i-, Viiguiia and Mary I'd, a large share of all Ibe proceeds rec ived for these tapltc, which hve so desolated the earth over im mense districts, h.is left these old i.npover ished Stat-?, with their emigrating citizens never to return. This unwise system of tillage is exten ding rapidly in the United States. Manufacturers, merchams and mechanics often shift their settled policy, when they see a profit in making a change. But who ever erneets millions of isolated farmers to change suddenly their practices, ideas- and systems of culture and husbandry, shows that he has noi laliored twenty years to sub stitute an improving for au exhausting sys tem of field culture. At a fair estimate, there are at this trine 2,741,966 persons em ployed in agriculture in the fifteen slave, holding States. Before the study of rural economy, as a science, will become as pop ular as the study of politics, law and medi cine, the South will have at work, in the field, a force ol five millions of operatives. Who does not see thai the wise aud skillul employment of this Vast power of production is a matter of inestimable consequence to all the planting Stales, and to unborn millions who must dig their daily bread from unpov eriihed soils, if the mighty work of laud exhaustion is to increase and extend, as pop ulation spreads over tbe cotton, tobacco and ugar-growiiig parts of the Union? Propa gated by buds iiist-ad of seeds, the sugar, cane will be found, like the potato plant, less able to withstand the customary abuses of the earth the rude violation ol the laws of a Nature. than tobacco.com, wheal and coi ton plants But all these are Buffering in vital force and constitutional vigor, oy rea son of Iheir defective food, in partially ex. hausted soils.
