In our August number we took occasion to refer to this subject, but we now propone to sug. pei a few things which e there omitted. While - there is no such thine- as tioatl farmiua that tluoa not include a judicious and. thorough system of manuring, he it a good Jutmar who docs hie best With the men in nt his command. If hia supply i if manure is but half what it ought to be, it may be that he deserves great commendation for liia ikill in turning to the best account what he has. Still, his system is not good in itself, it ia only the best that hie circumstances will permit him to adopt. Good farming requires that crops be well adapt ed to the nature of the soil. It has also a ten dency to produce similar conditions iu all soils ; that is, the compact clay should be eonrertcd into good soil by the mingling of other sle meiita, perhaps uf inferior value by themselves, while aandy soils should be solidified and strength . ened by the addition of clay, io. We do nut specify here the means of doing this, as our purpose line in another direction. We would stnaply affirm, that by means of the compost heap, or some other agency more desirable, the light and the henry, the wet and the dry, the cold and the warm should bo made to assimilate more nearly. There is a proportion among 'the elements u( a soil that is bent adapted to earh crop, and though this is not the samo lor all the products of the farm, there is a limit to their differences. The planets da not all revolve in the name plane, but the orbits of all aro wi'hin a few degrees of the equator. Such should be the unity of diameter iu all soils. The unuly es of the various crops, -presenting a general resemblance, with. specified differences, both il lustrate and enforce our position. . jr-troWl iKruiin;!, scientific forming, docs not for.

" Exhausting crops" are obviously suited to vigorous soils. The rich nntl new hinds of the W est arc capable of producing the most alain dunt harvests without apparent detriment, liut e-veu in Ohi-i, su recently settled, wo new see "that tli.se exhausting processes which have proved so ' destructive to the land of the older States retain the same characterisiies whei'i trailsforred to other and distant regions Uut what urn hiiustino c hops? This is n relative term, tind is used in several senses First, it is applied to th-we crops which cwrfrmk the greatest iinioant of mineral or moronic elements, hut-li elements arc drawn exciui-iy.'-ly front tho sod. while ihu niganicor gaseous uh inents are tdtained from the atmosphere. Those plants, of course, which contain the greatest amount of mineral matter, as lime, and soda, and ailcx, c, are the most exhausting. They use up the availuhlo elements of it soil most rn. pidly, and it then become barren. It noiy be, however, that those elements which compose the chief part of a given crop are the very elements which tho soil has in excess. In such case, that crop dues notcihaust the soil ; for it has still all necessary elements, and in due proportion ; and in such case, that crop is not an exhausting, but a fallow tnor a restiug crop. T he soil is ns able to bear wheat and corn, Le., as U-was. be fore. Thns silieious plant1 may be cultivated successive years on silieious soils without injury to them. 1 These suggestions present to us a second up. plication of the term " exhausting, " or its oppo site, fallow, or non-exhausting ; those crops being termed "exhausting" which use up particular elements, leaving the soil destitute of them, and of course barren ; while they are termed " fnl. low crops," if they uso freely" those element only whieh are in excess. ' Again, certain growths act the part of cultica. tort, and hence are " fallow crops." Thus, clo. vsr, lucerne, Sec, under favorable circumstances, ond down their roots to a great depth below the surface, and draw up nutriment which most crop could not reach. This nutriment, in part at least, is expended in the growth of the root nearer tho surface, and these roots are afterwards left to decompose and improve tin superficial nil where they are accessible to the short roots of the cereals. They also improve the soil by makingit more porous, forming channels through which moisture is drawn up from below in time of drought. Hence these crops abo ere termed "fallow." They bring to the surface substan. tiul iiutriinent for tho aeceeding crop, while they tax but lightly the superficial soil lor their own growth. This view sufficiently illustrates the nature i f fallow crops ; am the great practical inquiry f the farmer is, What are properly called "fallow eropt't". Nor is the inquiry easily or concisely to be answered ; for, as shown in the preceding remarks, the answer ia,essvntiolly dependent uti the eondition of the soil. If lime is 'in excess, Idant which abound in lime will not exhaust f liUx is in excess, plants which ouly absorb fir freely will not exhaust. Again, peas ro quire but little silcx, hence they Will not eibauM a soil, though notseminently silicions : hut they do require potash, inagneata, and phosphoric acid, and benee these must be found in the soil or be supplied in manures, or muro or less cx hai'ation must ensue. Lean consume little except the alkalies and phosphoric acid. Potatoes oxharrst, by their tu. ben, the notash, and by their stalks, the lime of the soil. Turnips abour.d in potash, beets in potash and soda, carrots and parsnips In potash and in lime.. Hence it is that wood.ashes are so serviceable to these crop and hence also these crop are not exhausting where thes elements nre abundant. Otherwise, they are exhausting. Uuckwheat will grow On soils capable of pmdu ring hut very litt.tr of other crops. It contains but nhootjwrper em, of mineral matter, and nearly hnlf of this is lime.

Buckwheat 1 also peculiarly serviceable as a e green crop to be ploughed in, on account of its , " rapid growth. It can be planted and ploughed In three times in a single season, and thus i made to impart a large quantity of vegetable aiattt r to the soil. . in this connection it occur to lis to observe that all the necessary elements may exist in a oil, but that toil still be barren. For example: the nofl may L bard and itnprevious to' the root, r those element may not ba in a soluble form. t Magncsian limestone, for in. time, may abound In it, while so combined in the rock as to be in- aoliible by the water or acids In the soil, and utirety' beyond the influence cf all the vital force or tb plant, and the erp may (ail lr want of magnesia.

' - The view we hare here presented shows rery rlearly why clay aoila are not suited to the growth of the cereal. They demand a large propor tion of silex and clay contains none. But if those clays are calcareous, they will produce large crops of clover, or of ruto-bagas, &c These points present themselves to us whenever we are called upon to adapt our crops to our soil, or to apply manure. - MISCELLAHEOUS. . K0METI11XO DIVINE. """ A SlOltV Or ITALIAN ARTS AND ARTISTS. ' believe that neither quinine or saline draughts, were so effectual in curing me of the marsh fever which prostrated me in Rome, as the good little stories my excellent doctor. used to tell me. One of his best was about tsjtvnii. maid. i '. Maris, the heroine, was the daughter of a far mer; but became, at a very early age, the ser. vant of a sculptor of some celebrity in hia day, named Putci, who had removed foiin Florence to Home to court inspiration in the Metropolis of Art, for a great work. He was a grave, se rious man; and, having instructed Maria in the duties required of heF,' aclired. within himself, and.ullowed her to do prefty niifch as she liked so that sho governed his little household in her own way. one was a comely girl, ol quiet man nem, and soon became a favorite with all l'ulci s TisitoiS. 'he engraver Savoring was slraek with leTVolit &.tjsjhtr fisher, ornl offered to make her Ids wife; but she replied calnily that she had engaged w ith Signor l'ulci to be hi servant for three yearn, and could not think of breaking her engagement. "I will Hud a uV stitute," bitol Savorini. "1 cannot be replaced," he replied. Tho engraver consoled himself hy calling her a Proserpine of pride, and hia court- tip ended for a time. 1 .Master l'ulci was busy with an important group the subject being Religion leaning on S ienee and Art an allegory which Italians are faid of developing. . Although not a lirt cla-s sculptor, he still occupied a sufficient rank ! I. ring him in contact with all the eclohr air I r i.-ts id tho day, who used til ciime front time to lime to his studio. Maria wits often eallo.i In ' r .'no purpose or another, and libtencd greedi :v '' their animated discourse on genius nnd iis e n qtient fame. From t'oo very outset she. bc .an : l'-el vearnings after e-rlh'y inmio.rtulity. A ottr, htiit'ver, passed beforet a definite plan Ht:,-fieded to her vain impulses. One day I'ul 'i invited some uf his fiiends to iiniM-r. .Savoi'iilT niiiongfct tho rest. The nienl w is laken in the studio, and the conversation naturally turned upon art. All spoke enthusi astieally for all were Italians, and were deeply dcvoU'iJ ta.tbeir various departments, t-iivorini, who jof ' retained a strong sentiment for Maria, anA pern.ips wished todartle her, (she was mov ing quietly to nnd fro performing her usual du" ties, but listening to nil tint was said with re' spcotiulafentior) rat her exaggerated thodigr.ity and The privileges of the -profession to which they all belonged. Kings and Emperors, tho I'opo himself, he said, ranked hslowgroat artists; mid it was better to have produced that Diana pointing to a clny model, which l'ulci had just finished th:in t ) guide tho councils of nations. "I place my art," he added, "not quite on an equality with yours, signuri, but 1 own no supe riors trtuPsaiif nut ' ha' a spark of soLii.io.og divine within me." lie talked much wi this strain, being excited I y the good Lnohrynia f 'hris-tii, ami by the pres ence of Mur-hi. Although the girl admired what ho said, she in no wjso set it down to bis -M Unt iu the way hoy would have desired Mio looked upon him only as an interpre er of truth, nnd nent about the room pondering whether she had not ntn n spark of something divine within her. ''Ves, 1 have it!" she said at luilgth. PAs -.he said this, she j ui-hed iiaiust Angela. an old thirne w ho hud come in to assist bor in her duties, let go the dish that had the mewud prunes, Rnd Lroso it, splashing the riclk. red juice over her own white sLu-kiug.', I "Are they quite spoiled!" inquired Snvorini. She gavo him a familliar push, as if she was removing one of her fathers heifers out of the way. "Let her alone!" cried l'ulci, "We must not punish her for bcr accident. She has not chipped a statuo or a model since she has been with me." "I would rather break one of my own limbs," she exclaimed, "limvo!" cried they all; and nf. ter complimenting her, they went on talking of their art, as cheerily as if they had not been dis. appointed of stewed prunes. Meanwhile Maria became more and more convinced that there w as a spark of something divine within her. From that time she begun in secret in her own little ld ria-m to endeavor to produce; some of the furuis of beauty that filled her mindj The clay became life like in her hsnds; and, in ui very short tune, she almost started with surprise at beholding a lovely countenance looking out from the unformed muss w hich she had placed in her window sill. A natural fi arid being rid iuled and repressed, prevented her from confl ling her projects and her studies to her master But bor secret was too troublesome to be kept n inly to herself. At tir.-i she thought i f the engraver Savorini nnd possibly it wniild have been well hud his honest love licirfouod favor in her eyes, lint the remembrance of his rough gallantries mid ber feni'ul In confiding in him, Tlicie Was C.iiiiariua, the daughter of Angela; but, wheu she came to goasip of evenings, all her t ilk wna about the handsome cnvlicrs who funk. J st her in ChutLii impious men and follow, ed her home trying to talk nonsense. This .was n t a lontidaote, so sho choose my old Doctor, ( oronn, who had atlenib-d her in her illness, and hud) won bcr confidence by his benevolent manners. Hie Sent to him, made bin promise si crer-y as if she had been going 1 1 confess a murder, and revealed that she felt the power to bi one a great artist. . ' M fame will fill the world." said she. -' '.'But will it fill you ho trt?" I hat is lull already with hope." : . lie saw that she had not courtier advice, but encourngeuien , and he encouraged her. lie would have preferred had she d.ld all to M.i-. r l'ulci; tut that nrti.it, though good nnd kind, h'd I meihing cold and saVirical in his m intt-'r.

Beside who will adurM ' niuS in the person that cook's' nc dinner? 1 hoe lmo Is that have made so ni anv messes can do isutbiag but spuil tnarble, hs will think." ' She must take care," thought Corona, "oof to deceive herself ns to the motive that makes be.' unwilling to communicate' her ambition to her master. , If 1 niistnko not, she hopes to d .n ale him." - , . Bttt the doctor waa mistaken. Maria' whole lieing was f'roiii that timejorward devoted to the art, and art clone. It is true" that she did nut fail to perform ber household duties, bnt she ell so mechanically, and if Mmr l'ulci bad been anything of a gourmand or fidget, he would h ire found daily grounds of complaint. How. ever, m ilters went on very well, and neither hs rHr-anjf sns else, ever suspected that tho sjirl had turned her bed na m into a studio, aid she ws rubbing herself of sleep in order to make up for the hours necessarily lost In the day time. Savorini alotie noticed that her checks grew pale, and her eyes glosmekl with nnnntti.-nl bril. littler "ller soul is wearing nut her Iwrfly, IHx tor." said lie to Corona. The doctor assent" ed rrovtfu'ljr, without daring lo betray the sexret. - EALEIGH, NORTH Maria afterwards said that her life seemed to hsv begun only from the ti me when she perceived the presence t the "divine spark'' ia her. All the former year faded from' her remembrance. Her imagination became filled with beautiful forms. " ller citra -were open to catch words of instruction troin her master or bis visitors, ller eyes greedily devoured ie models that sur rounded her. She took l'utoi'e books one by one to her room, and learned all that they could teach her. Whenever she went forth, it was to some church, or to the Vatican, to admire the achievements of the schools. ; '; , At length sho felt herself sufficiently prepared to attempt original productions, and sho began to model a statue of -Jlinetva, A practised hand would haviPproduccd a result as good as herf, in a much shorter time, but she was igno rant of the routine, and ninny accidents retarded .her wnrks However, as time procoeded, th fig ure grew under her bunds, and day by day the consciousness of her own gdnius increased with in her. Her determination was to send the figure to the annual competition fur the prite secretly that she night hear the impartial opin. ion of the judges. The dilB -nlties in her way we're immense, but she overcame them ..II; and, when Muster Iftilci was absent, some porters, sent by lr. Corona, sums and took her model away. Thus it was removed to the exhibiiiou hall without n.-cident. , Maria entered with t' e crowd on the appoint, ed day and contrived to place herself near to her statue. Her ambition did not extend to win' dug the prize.. All she dared to bops was to escape ridicule; but her asbuiishrnent was indis cribabla oil perceiving by digtws all the con nuisseurs collect a round her Minerva, and be. gan to speak cnthuKiafrtic-ttl!y in its praise. Thejiiilges stood before it iu their turn there was a unanimous cry .f admiration. Her heart swe ed mightily witnin, mid it wa with Oirucul t tv she could repress her pride and exultation. j these canu-'to their height a hen tho prize was onatiimously given to hep statue, and tho crier began to oxulaim "L-'t the sculptor of tho Mi' nerva declaro himself." It then struck her in her confusion tha' a woman had no right to oompete for rhe prize, and she hastened away unperccired. ller object, however, was gained. She was now sure flint she bad uut deceived herself by a false idea of her own merit, and she saw in the future a long series of triumphs. Doctor Corona, who had watched her, followed and oompliincn ted h'-r Kreu bo Itad not dared to ndniiro her work until public opinion had crowned it. He w-nt with her to the studio of l'ulci, and there she threw bet self on her knees before her master, and confessed the truth. lie at first thuught she iva mad. and it was not until Doctor Coroi a .confirmed her statement, that ho could believe his servant girl Maria had won the first prize of sculpture by the unanimous vote of tho first ar ti-t-i of Home. The news soon spread through tho city, and Savorini came hastily to complement tho young artiste. She allowed him ti embraeo her, and listened gratefully when he said "She must at once bo raised from her menial capacity. It is impossible tu deprive tho arts of this wonder." He did not repeat his declaration of affection, but ho seemed to claim a right to watch over her future fortune. l'ulci at once agreed to look out for another servant, but Maria refused to quit his house. " will superintend every thing still," sho s lid. The three supped togethet pleasantly that eve. ning. and Savuvini begun the well known etch' ing which represented Maria sitting at the feet of her Minerva, pausing in her work to admiro it. Next dav all the elite of Human art came flocking to hail their new comrade." For some months, indoud. the fashionable society had talked of notbiug else hut this plea -ant story, and it became a popular opinion that Mat la would equal or surpass lbs greatest masters. There was soms exaggeration in this. The a luses mvhich would have made them refuse to ncknowh edge her talont before her public triumph, in. dared them to magnify it now. It seemed so extraordinary that servant girl frotn the v'ani. pagtiii of Ivomo could do any thing, that people supposed nothing was too great for her to perform. Kien old Xosotti. Maria's father, undertook a journey to Homo for tho puriose of seeing his daughter, nnd looked in tt St. Peters' by the way. She received him with great delight, but shook her head w hen he suggested that she might now marry farmer Itaimonde. Savorini, who was by, ventured a hope on his own acoount, and he whispered something in her ear. She smiled faintly, nnd giving him. ber hand, said- "if you will ask mo ag.,in in six months I will say yes!" He did not understand. The truth is the divine spark was burning too fiercely vvithin."" In vain Dr. Corona exerted his art, and endeavored moreover to wean Mnria for a while from the studio. The hectic flush and the brilliant eyes proved true prophets. The Minerva was tho only work of the ser vant Maria, who died on the 12th of May, IsO'J. MODEKX CINCINNATI'S. V In a long ng ond pleasant conversation recently with a distinguished friend, whese mind is rich with recollections of thepost, we gathc.-ed many incidents, not the least interesting of which, was the following: At the session of the South Carolina Xegisla, ture in 1814,, the members were perplexed for a suitable man to elect (Inventor. The difficulty did not arise from nny scarcity of candidates, for-tlien, as now. men were ambitious,' but from a want of tho right sort of a man. The matter liecamo worse as the time wore on, and the elec tion of some objectionable candidates siemed inevitable. Quo day, however, as several of them were conversing upon the matter, Judge O'Ncall, then ayoung mini, and present by in. vitation, said "licntltincn, why npt elect Gen. Duvid I!. Williams." " David R. Williams, he's our man he's the man," titer all exclaimed as they began to scat, ter to tell the news. Th( day of election came on, and Oeri. Will tains was elected by a large vole. A messenger Has at oncedcepatclied with a carefully prepared letter to inform the Ucncral if his election- ro t;u -st his acceptance, and hoping he would nnme S day on which Ire would take the oath of office. After a long bard ride the mi'asenger stopped tit I the Wenerai s resiuetice, .onritsirough District, we believe, and inquired if he wa in. Ho was told that Mr. Williams was over to bis planta tion. The' gentleman said he would ride over hs he h id a lioto to deliver to him as soon as possible. When ubout half way he met fine looking otan, dressed in plain homespun, and driving a team of mules " Am I on the road to the plantation uf Gen. Williams" asked the messenger. " Yes, sir ! it is about a mile further on," was the reply.' 4 ' "I the General at homo ?" N'i,ir." ,- When, is he?'' . . H am Gem Williams." You Oen. David ti, Williams!" .

The London Times of September 14th has ssr editorial on the present condition of Ireland, which encourages the hope that the people uf that country aro yet toba happy and prosper ous. The Times say: " Within the six years ending March, 1832, as many as l,;!U,'Jl''i persons left the shorn of lrclant, th number for IS-.il being 2.i4,5;lr. and lor Wl, 22I,S'J7. For tin ftowir year the ex haustion wa fourfiinesth supply, estimated at tlie usual rate ; fur tlie latter year more tfcma thssss Aiows i-asysVwt imwrsne irwrasT wotsbl bw depopulated in two gnnerationa. So great and spontaneous a drain is pndiahly unexampled in the history of ths world, when ths ie ol iu bs ing across a great ocean and in a time af pro, found peace i taken into account. Csrtaiuly, as one oonsi.lers the iimnenss red'induney of Is. bur on one side of the Atlantic, and the profita ble eiupinvuicnt waiting for it on tho otlier, one cannot help setting this down ainonj th things that wers to be. " As matters now stand, emigration from Ira. land is evidently the result of certain varying conditions, and varies with them. Kren th great increase in the money sent from Amerioa to pro, cure the passago of friends an increase from underia million to nearly a million and a half has not prevented ths rate from flagging In tlw last year. MxLoske, from who paper wear quoting; points out that, while this emigration was in progress, lrclan I was fast becoming a very different country j more employment, less pauieriin ; loss crime ; wealthier landowners, and improved cuUivatiuu. Had Ireland, indeed. been iu 18-tti what it is now, there would have been no suoh emigration. Lren between the two years IHil and ISA3 the expense of public relief hsrve decreased nearly a fourth, th Able, bodied .pauper nearly half-, in the poorest dis tricts very much mure.. If tire weekly rate of wages no nnr oeen modi raised, employment no ueon niucti mure continuous and steady, There was nearly a third Ism crime in IK52 than in l&il, offences of an agrarian character being only louad in a row district, and scarcely stall. Mr, Lacks observe, iu ths land which ha changed hand under ths encumbered statu commission, amounting to on million and seven hundred thousand sores, oomnriainff a nonula. tion of half a million, and sola for ton millions and a half. We have mors than once expressed ths belief mat the appointment of ths commission men. t oned In tbo shove extract was likely to prove a gre.it boon to Ireland. There is abundant evidence that such bill been Itst'Scot. Already muro than a thousand nmbarraeseJ or insolvent land proprietors have I men replaced by four times their number of substantial men, who have brought new capital and new spirit to ths en terpriscs upuu which the have entered. Ia Connaught the Commission has wrought a won. dertui change, a twelfth of its area and a illh if the whole property sold by thscammiseionsr having passed into the hands f men of Urge' wsAlth and knurrn energy. This, taken in sun, nexion with the easigrasisa to tho United States, tlie Time justly ebarastsrttes ns " the natural revolution which began front the potato rut in ib-io a social revolution greater tliaa any that war, conquest, or political violence ha beea able to accomplish j and it predict as the result that Ireland will now enjoy prosperity and quiet.
