Sf9S farm anfo Fotash as a SthnnJant. The value of potash as a stimulant, lias long been known and appreciated, but Prof. Wood’s essay has recently brought the subject before the agri cultural world, and now the question is, where can we obtain it at the low est price ? The State of Nebraska probably contains enough of this alkali to sup ply the world lor ages to come, cer tainly more than is good for the soil in some parts, while in nearly the whole western half of the State the great potash plains are barren from its excess. If this can be economically lixiviated and shipped east at living prices to all, the rapidly-deteriorating soil there will soon be moro than re stored to its former fertility. The great productiveness of the land west ol the Missouri river, es pecially the valleys, undoubtedly arises from the perfect admixture of potash through the soil to a great depth, partly deposited by the wash ings of the potash plains in former ages, and partly by the yearly prairie fires leaving an annual coat of ashes, from which the rains leach out the alkali. In this part of Nebraska, sev enty miles west of the Missouri, on the Platte river, we have ‘alkali spots’ varying in size from a few square yards to as many square rods. These spots in very early spring, alter the snow is melted and the surface dry, are a snowy white, which become black at the recurrence ol rain or mists, and whiten again as soon as dry. They are tho first to become green in the spring, with a short, slender grass, sparse but of a healthy character, to tally unlike any other prairie grass; but as summer advances growing yel low and finally seeming to die from too liiui h or ICO little nourishment. This i i irc substance is potash, reaching to an unknown depth; no crops will grow t ■ and in a field of grain they can hundred yards olF. The are cultivated the worse become, the sod never rots, the s.:ui soaks easily, dries quickly and hard as a brick, and if a load- t 1 i am ever “sticks” upon the prairie it is sure to be in an “alkali spot.” Cattle are very fond of the grass early in the season, and some deaths have occurred from over-feeding upon it. These spots appear to be slight de pressions m the generally level prai rie, where the strongest solution of potash has settled and saturated the soil quite deeply. In some parts of the Platte bottom they are" quite nu merous, covering from oue to two- thirds of the surface, while in others, only a foot or two higher in a general level, none occur. Sly farm does not contain any, but with in twenty rods of my south line they abound. I intend this season to collect some of it for experiment upon vegetables, &c., and if I obtain any satisfactory results wiil report in due time.—<$. Rufus Mason, Dodge County, JSdrraska, in Germantown Telegraph. SAVANNAH CARDS. From the Southern Farm ami Home. ZwSutton as a Substitute for It aeon Mr. Editor.—I am glad to see that sheep-raising is attracting more atten tion ns a branch of industry in the Southern States, aud that there is some chance that “old fields” and hillsides, now bringing in nothing, may in time be converted into sheep-walks. But most people estimate this industry as valuable only for the wool, and pay very little attention to the mutton. Our people are not generally fond of mutton, because they rarely or ever tasted any good mutton. I would ad vocate sheep-raising as well for the meat as for the wool, and I think that it would pay well to substitute, to a great extent, mutton for bacon. We eat vastly too much hog meat. Our health would be much better if we ate less of it. Good mutton, well fed and well butchered is a very wholesome and uutrious food, and it can be raised for half the price of bacon, even taking tne “hog round.” I would not sub stitute it altogether, for hug meat,/or I like a good slice of ham, a pieco of middling, or eveu ajowl as much as any man, but I would mix in a good quarter of fat mutton with the contents of the. smoke-house. Variety is charm ing, you know, and when it pleases tile palate, conduces to health, and spares the pocket, it is exquisitely charming. 1 will bet that any man who makes the experiment and uses mutton as food upon his plantation “will return to his mutton.” Wool- raising may be made immensely prof itable at i fie South. We have every natural advantage to engage in the in- du tiy and surpass all competitors. A11 we lack la the will aud the patience. Y.’i * vn combine with it meat raising, . .'argely u our gains physically . as financially. Leicester.

The reputation this ex- eeitent medicine enjoys, Is dcri vefi from its cures, many of which arc truly marvellous. Inveterate cases of Seroftalons dis ease, where the sygtom seemed saturated with corruption, hare been purified and cured by it. Scrofulous affections and din-rdere.which were ag gravated by the scrofu lous contamination until they wc$e painfully afflicting, have been radically cured in such great numbers in almost everv »fic tion of the country, that the publio scarcely need to be informed of its virtues or uses. gcrefaioua poison is one of the most destructive enemies of fiur race. Often, this unseen and unfelt ’ tenantwf tfcfiotganisia uio 'eviniaes the eoastitaboa, and invites the attack of enfeebling or fatal diseases, without exciting a suspicion of its presence. Again, tt seems to breed infection throughout the body, and then, on some favorable occasion, rapidly develop into one or other of ite hideous forms, either on the surihee or among the vitals. In the latter, tuber cles may be suddenly deposited in the lungs or heart, or tumors formed in the liver, or it snows its presence by eruptions on the skin, or foul ulcer ations on some pari of the body. Hence the occa sional use of a bottle of this Sarsaparilla Is ad visable, eycm wben no arrive symptoms of disease appear. Persons afflicted with tho following com plaints generally find immediate relief, and, at length, cure, by the use of this HAIiSAI‘ARlIj~ 1,A: St. Anthony’s Fire, Bose or Erysipelas, Tetter, Salt Rheum, Scald Head, Ringworm, Sore Byes, Sore Bars, and other eruptions or visible forms of Scrofulous disease. Also in the more concealed forms, as Dyspepsia, Dropsy, Heart Disease, Bits, Epilepsy, lieu rat gia, and the various Vlccrous affections of the muscu lar and nervong ryrtems. Syphilis or Venereal and Mercurial Diseases are cured by it, though a long time is required for subduing these obstinate maladies by any medicine. But long continued nse of this medicine will cure the complaint. Leueorrheea or Whites, Uterine Ulcerations, and Bemale Diseases, are com- monlv soon relieved and ultimately cured by ita purifying and invigorating effect. Minute Direc tions for each case arc found in our Almanac, sup plied gratis. Rheumatism and Gout, wm| caused by accumulations of extraneous matters in the blood, yfc'ld quickly to it, as also lAuer Com] taints. Torpidity, Congestion or Inflam mation of tho Liver, and Jaundice, when arising, as they ofb-n do, from the rankling poisons in the blood. This SAJtSABARILLA is a great re storer for the strength and vigor of the system. Those who are Languid and Listless, Despon dent, Sleepless, and troubled with Nervous Ap prehensions or Bears, or any of the affections symptomatic of Weakness, will find immediate relief and convincing evidence of it3 restorative power upon trial.
