AGRICEETURAE. From the New England Fanner. NEW SORT OF INDIAN CORN. Hovse of Representatives, ? Feb. 5, 1837. S T. G. Fessenden, Esq. Dear Sir: I am indebted to the Hon. Henry L. Ellsworth, Commissioner of Patents in this city, for a small quantity of Indian corn—a de scription of which you have in a letter to Mr. Ellsworth, both of which I now enclose. The package of corn I have sent by John H. Dex ter Esq., of Boston, and will thank you to make such disposition of it as you may deem proper. I remain, dear sir, your ob’t servant, ABBOTT LAWRENCE. Patent Office, January 30, 1037. Si r —Hearing of some great improvements that had been made in the common corn, I ad dressed a letter to Mr. Baden, a highly res pectable gentleman in Maryland, to ascertain what facts I could on the subject. His letter is interesting, end I transmit a co py of it. This experiment of Mr. Baden shows most clearly what can be done to im prove seeds, by carefully selecting each year the best kind raised. Theoretical opinions sustain Mr. Baden; but few experiments have been tried so successfully. What might be effected for agriculture by similar efforts? The like efforts, in improving the breed of animals, have been crowned with great suc cess, especially in Europe. I avail myself of this opportunity to send you a small sample of the corn mentioned by Mr. Baden. I will on ly add, that I have conversed with several per sons who have planted the “Baden” corn, and the concurrent opinion of all sustains the state ments made in the letter. I have a few sam ples at the Patent Office, of corn raised in this neighborhood, which has four and five ears on n stalk; and I expect soon some stalks contain ing six, seven and eight ears. If this corn were generally introduced, how greatly the a mount of bread-stuffs must be increased, with out any extra labor. I hope some public spi ited citizen will try to improve wheat, oats, barley and other grains. 1 avail myself of the opportunity to mention the introduction of Italian spring wheat, with groat success. A friend of mine, in Connecti cut, raised the last year, forty bushels on an acre. This grain is heavy; makes good flour, yields well, and the crop avoids all danger of winter freezing. I have ordered a quantity of; this corn and wheat to be shipped to Indiana,! and intend to try both on the fino soil of the Wabash valley, the ensuing summer. I am yours, very respectfully. ' 11EN RY L. ELLSWORTH. N. B.—Be careful to plant this corn in a place by itself. When good seed is planted in a field with poor seed, the former will dege nerate. H. L. E. [Cppy of Mr. Baden's Lcttrr.] Nbar Nottingham, Prince George's ) County, Jan. 20, 1837. ( Sir.* I received yours of the 14th, making inquiry respecting the “Maryland corn,” which you understand 1 had raised. I have the pleas ure to say, that 1 have brought this corn to a hfgh state of perfection, by carefully selecting the best seed in the field for a long course of years, having especial reference to those stalks which produced the most ears. When the corn was husked, I then made a selection, ta xing only that which appeared sound and ful ly ripe, having a regard to the deepest and Lest color, as well as to the size of the cob. In the spring, before shelling the corn, I exam ined it again, and selected the best in all res pects. In shelling the corn, 1 omitted to take the irregular kernals at both the largo and small ends. I have carefully followed this mode of selecting seed corn for twenty two or twenty three years; and still continue to do so. When 1 first commenced, it was with a com mon kind of corn, for there was none other in this part of the country. If any other person undertook the same experiment, 1 did not hear of it; 1 do not believe others have exercised the patience to bring the experiment to the present state of perfection. At first, 1 was troubled to find stalks with even two good cars on them, perhaps one good ear and one small one, or one good ear mid “a nubbin.” It was several years before I could discover much benefit resulting from my efforts; however, al length the quality and quantity began to im prove, and the improvement was then very ra pid. At present, Ido net pretend to lay up any seed, without it comes from stalks that bear four, five or six ears. I have seen stalks bearing eight ears. One of my neighbors in formed me that he had a single stalk, with ten perfect ears on it, and that ho intended to send the same to the museum at Baltimore. In ad dition to the number of ears, and, of course, the great increase in quantity unshelied, and may be mentioned, that it yields much more than the common coni when shelled. Some gentlemen, in whom I have full confidence, in formed ma they shelled a barrel (ten bushels » f uses) of my kind ol corn, which measured u t:c tnorethan s x bushels. The c ommon' kind ot com will measure about five bushels only. I behevo 1 raise double, or nearly so, t > what I could with any other corn I have ev. v. | generally plant the corn about the Ist of May, and plnce the Lilis five feet apart each way, and have two stalks in a hill. 1 c ..n supply you with all the Need v-> ;1 mnv need ! and I suppose I have now in my corn house, ' fifty and perhaps more stalks, with the corn on them, as it grew in the field; and none with less than four, and some with six or seven ears on them. I will with pleasure send you soma of these stalks, and also some seed corn, if I can get an opportunity. Earley last spring, I let George Law, Esq, of Baltimore city, have some of this seed corn; he sent it to his friend in Illinois, with instruc tions how to manage it. A few weeks since he informed mo that the increase wasonehun dred and twenty bushels on an acre; that there was no corn in Illinois like it, and that it pro duced more fodder than any other kind. I have supplied many friends with seed corn, but ; some have planted it with other corn, and will, I fear, find it degenerate, I have lately been inquired of, if this corn was not later than other kinds? It is rather earlier; certainly not later. Corn planted in moist or wet soils, will not ripen so quick as t that which is planted on a dry soil. In the former, there will be found more dampness in the cob, although the kernel may appear c qually ripo in both. In the two last years, the wet seasons have injured much corn that was too early “lofted” or housed. j I believe I have answered most of your in . quiries. I hope I havo not exaggerated—l . have no motive for doing so. 1 raise but little , corn to sell, as tobacco is my principal crop. Should I fail to send you some seed this spring, , I will next summer, gather some stalks with i the corn, fodder and tassels, and all, as they , grow, and send to you that you may judge • yourself of the superiority of this over the 3 common kind of corn. j Yours, tec, . THOMAS N. BADEN. Hon. Henry L. Ellsworth, f Com. of Patents, Washington City. r ON PLOUGHING. North Carolina, March 25, 1831. Me. Smith: I propose to offer a paper or two on this first and most important operation of Agriculture; and if my opinions and my manner of comma nicating them are tolerated, I may extend my remarks to some other pattieulars of this first and best of arts. Before I speak of ploughing, it is necessary to premise that all planted crops should be in drills and not in hills, and all sown crops in beds, for reasons that will appear obvious in my manner of ploughing, and by some obser vations on planting that may perhaps follow. The fact is all that is now necessary to be un derstood. Os ploughs I will say but little. It is indis pensable that they should be good, run deep, and be of a form that will turn a furrow of the least possible resistance. The avoirdupois weight of a plough is a matter of but little con- ' sequence, except that a heavy plough runs more steadily; for the difference of 10 or 15 pounds would not be perceptible to a team ca pable of carrying a thousand; but the devia tion of an inch in the form of a mouldboard will affect the draught more than fifty or a hundred pounds. Teams must be strong. The superficial scratching of a bad plough, and a weak team, can promise nothing favorable to the farmer. Room is not afforded to the crop roots to pen etrate, nor is the earth loosened to suffer the moisture to rise, nor for the rains which fall to penetrate: either rain or drought in the smallest excess ruins the crop: it can on ly bo worked in seasons exactly favorable, and the scratching farmer’s care and anxieties are only relieved by his land soon washing away. As that goes down the rivers, he goes over the • mountains. Wherein consists the patriotism of a bad farmer? This sort of itinerant needs a new appellation. Fanners often object that they cannot plough deep, as from tho fewness of their horses they cannot afford to double their teams, that is, put two horses to a plough. I know from experi ence, that eight horses if doubled when break ing up, will tend as much land, and make a . better crop than ton working singly. This i apparent paradox, if not now obvious, will be ! solved in some future number if I find expedi . ent to write it. Land should never be flushed up or cross ploughed for any preparation. It should be bedded for corn, wheat and every other crop, , and the water furrow of one crop ehould be the . ridge of the next. I In reversing the beds begin in the water , furrow. Tho deepest ploughing is thereby , made deeper. The sides of the old beds arc . sliced off and thrown together to form new I ones.- with every repetition you can plough . deeper and deeper, and soon arrive at a depth , quite incredible to the skimmers. Cross ploughing is very deceptions. Super ficially observed work seems to have been done, but in fact the ridges arc merely sera , ped off to fill furrows. Deep ploughing is out i of tho question. Jethro Tull, in his book, (as . I may quote perhaps hereafter,) condemns cross-ploughing for some particular reasons, that will deserve consideration. DE RUSTICA. A GREAT YIELD OF CORN. I It seems to be a difficult matter to convince ■ our farmers, that with proper cultivation, one acre of ground is capable of being made to yield as much as eight or ten acres, tended in i the common way. We it stated, that Chief Justice Buchanan, of Maryland, raised : the past season, seven hundred barrels of corn P on fifty acres of land—being 14 barrels to the acre. In this section of country, such a pro- I duct will hardly be credited; yet, if our Far. ■’ mers would try cxi’eriments tn a s.ngle acre, ; ploughing and manuring it as it ought to he done, they wilt find that equal success wj} st. tend their exertion*.— RglS'r.

The place is chosen, not only for tts facilities of information, literary and politi cal, but as that at which the Southern States can be united upon the undertaking, with the greatest ease, and with the completeet exemption from all State or Party jealousies. Os the matter, throe.fourths (say 2251 pp.) shall con sist of regular Reviews, making about 9 of 25 pp. each. These must, as literary works at least, return as o go neral rule, somewhat towards that older method, now almost forgotten, and give a regular analysis of the book reviewed, if it be of any merit. In Politics and upon Occasional Topics, there may be a greater liber, ty of deviating into mere disquisition. In this portion of the Review, there will be giten, in each No. a paper historical of the Politics and gen. eral events of the day; to serve as a Historical Regis ter. Its execution will always be committed to the strongest hands only; and its purpose, to give a unity and consistency to the Public Doctrines of the Review such as can scarcely be so well effected in any other matter. Occasional Retrospective Reviews will also be em bodied in this part of the plan, with a view of favoring in a certain degree, the more curious studies; or to re vive the knowledge of important books, forgotten in the confusion of modern learning. Writers will baled, of regular purpose to give their papers, wherever the subject will permit, the form of a service; in order not only that they may thus afford a completer body of information, serve, also, to reprint apart, for popular circulation; a method that will much augment both tho reputation and usefulneis of the Re. view. A body of Miscellanies (say lomo 50 pp.) will form the subordinate'and more amusing part of the Journal. Its contents will be somewhat various; but will, for tho most part, consist of short Literary Notices; Biblio. graphical Articles; a critical list of New Publications, foreign and domestic, and genera! Literary Intelli gence. In Communications, the moat compressed mode of writing will bo every where required. Papers in which the works do not bear a just proportion to the information conveyed or the effect intended, will be either rejected, without scruple, or abridged, without mercy To warrant this exaction, the usual rate of compen sation to writers will be advanced to 2 1.2 dollars per printed page; a price that will offer fair remuneration to the talents and labor which we wish to secure. Os this revival of a Review of the South, the pur. poso is. to give once more to our region, snow emin ently needing it) an Interpreter and a defender ; the common Representative of our Institutions, aud of the Mind itselfamong us. Such in that great Congress of Opinion, where the fates of civilized nations are now so largely settled, we do not possess and we have al. ready suffered much for it. It is time to make our. selves understood and respected there. The Journal which shall do thia, must combine the general strengh of all who, throughout the South, love the country, and are capable of doing it intellected service. It must then be, not the Champion or the propagandist of lo cal opinions, but the friend of all that pursue the pub. lie good. Into the vulgar methods of Politics, debus ed by Partisan rancour, or corrupted by the interest, or overborno by the popular passion of the hour, it must not full—From it, tho pride of tho Nullifier must re ceive no diminution, the fidelity of the Unionists no reproach : It must be no vantnge ground to either part, nor serve but ns an equal field, where they will only contend which shall most advance the cause of the South, and of that older doctrine of Jeffersonian State Rights, avowed by both parties alike, and now the only hope of rallying and of rescuing the country. I To vindicate, then, our peculiar Institutions; to re ( bel with argument, lest presently we be forced to re- Ibol with arms, all interference with ou. domestic con dition, against the wild rule of mere Chance and Cor ruption, to uphold a Republican and Federative, asdis tinguished from a Democratic and Consolidating ad ministration of tho National affairs, from the disor. ders of the Central government. Whore Reform is hopeless, and even useless, till you have given your selves stronger aud wiser local systems—to dried the public view towards a home policy of the State, capa ble, through itself, ;o confer upon us the blessings of well ordered Liberty, expected in vain from the Fe deral Power; from the delusional Party Politics abroad to call home the wise and brave have often raised petty States into nohlr and prosperous Commonwealth ; to attach men, if possible, to their birth place, and convert them from wandering and selfish adventurers, into citizens, the lovers of civilization, to re.animate public spirit, and give it purpose, as well as energy; I to hold, over parties and Politicians, the tribunal of a Public opinion far different from that idle and corrupt one, of which the newspaper Press is the voice; for these purposes, to diffuse through the land, sound and well considered public doctrines, with knowledge and Tasto, their natural allies, such will be the general aim of that literary league, among the best talents of tho country, which has been set on foot in the present undertaking. Os its critical purposes, it is not necessary to speak so minutely. In general, it will of course arrive to guide the popular taste towards the best sources in knowledge, and the truest models in Elegant Letters. Its judgments will however, found themselves upon ihe dent of his temporary renown, nor that of his birth on this or the other aide of tho Atlantic. Towards the few good writers, the want of cultivation has yet permitted us have in America, it will know how to be respectful. But in Literature, as lately in Trade, we shall insist that no man’s bad commodity be forced up' on us, under patriotic pretences. Upon all that school of writained. Upon the Literature of mere amusement, existence enjoyed by thta literary grass, which flourishes green ly in the morning, and is cut down and flung away be. fore the night. Life in tco short, Art too long, and Learning grown too prolific, for people to occupy selves more than sn instant with bad books, white scab great bodies of good ones are at their command.
