This subject certainly merits the at tention of our best and nost dMin gushed citizens ; and.

Our worn out and exhausted lands are to be improved ; swamps and marshes are to be drained and con ve rt ed ei ther i n to tillage or grass ou r piney barrens " are -also to be converted into cultiva tioii, or into some! Vmd of grass adapt ed to such soil. There is no system so likely spee dil v to reclaim our exhausted lands, a plaister and clover. y inclosing lands and -.excluding tazin from them, they will soon hand thus rapidly facilitate their im provement under the inelosingsystem.
