AN AGRICULTURAL AND CHEMICAL
GLOSSARY.
SILICA.
This is a hard and abundant mineral
found in all the rocks and soils of the earth.
A class of salts, called silicates, are obtain
ed from it by great heat, combined with
sodA,«otassa, lime Ac. It is found in the
stalks of grains and grasses, and of course,
must exist in soils in a soluble form.
SILURIAN FOMATION.
This is ’.the name given to lime stone,
sand stone, various slates, and rocks of
pebble and sand cemented together. They
lie next above the primary rocks.
SLATE.
This may be briefly termed a compact
form of clay.
SOAPSTONE.
This is a compact form of tale; so is
French chalk. We will explain talc under
its appropriate head.
SODA.
This is an Arabian name for mineral al-
cali. Its basis is a peculiar metal called
“sodium.” Our common table salt is the
chloride of sodium. Its compounds are sul
phate of sftda, carbonate of soda, nitrate
of soda, Ac. They are made according to
certain formulas with the use of acids and
are of great value as fertilizers..
SOILS.
Chemical analyses can tell what fertiliz
ing ingredients soils possess, and in what
some ot these ingredients are present in ex
cess, or deficiency. But these analyses are
not infallible guides. Experience in the
cultivation of 9oils, and the use of fertili
zers, is the only safe guide. While one kind
of manure may avail but little, another
kind may be attended with wonderful re
sults. Tin* cultivator of“tho soil, by vari
ous small experiments, will soon ascertain
what manure is tiest adapted to it. For
tuuatcly, nature lias so provided for most
soils, and so arranged their adaptedness tt
manures, that almost any kind of soil will
be beneiitted by any good manure.
SPON'GIOLES.
This is the name given to the small pulpy
points of the branches sent oil from the
roots through which the plant is nourished
in a liquid form.
STAMENS.
These are the threadlike organs of flow
ers found within the corolla.
STE.VR1NE.
This is a compound of stearic acid and
glyetrlrie.

leaves, flowers, fruit, Ac.
STIGMA.
This is the name given to the top of the
pistil in a flower.
STOMATA.
These are the littie openings in leaves
through which they have communication
with the air.
STRATIFIED HOCKS.
Thc-se are the rocks which are found in
some fflaces in layers, one upon another;
each layer is called a ‘•stratum” and wiiere
there are several they are called stratified
rocks.
STRYCHNINE.
This deadly poison is obtained from (he
nux-vonica, and also from some other sub
stances.
SULPHATES.
This is the name given to the union of
certain substances and sulphuric acid.
Gypsum is a sulphate of lime. The Glau
ber salts, of the shops, is a sulphate of
soda.
SUPERPHOSPHATE OF LIME.
This is the name given to a certain mix
ture of Lope dust, guano and sulphuric
acid. h#t’has proved to fie a very valuable
manure.
SULPHURETTED HYDROGEN.
This is a compound of Sulphur and
Hydrogen. Tiiis disagreeable g;is is dis
covered in the odor of decayed eggs.
SIENITE.

These are merely tubes made oftenol clay
for conveying off surplus water. In agri
culture tlieynrb useful in draining lands
too full of moisture.

DOG LAMrS—DOG N
Under this heading we copy the following
from the American Agriculturist. As we
cannot get a dog law to encourage sheep
husbandry wo publish the following that
our Legislators, who oppose protection to
the sheep, and others who coincide with
them, may have a good list from which to
select names for their favorite hounds, bull
dogs, mastiff and other curs, many of
which delight in bloody excursions in sheep
walks, sheep folds and pastures, by day
and nig lit.
Connecticut lias now a good “tramp” law
to protect the people from wandering vaga
bonds. Tiiis was preceded by a good law
passed last year, to protect the sheep as
well as the people from vagabond dogs.
Every dog kept in the State must be regis
tered with til© town clerk, before Slay 1st
eacli year, with a payment of S2.15 for eacli
male, and $G,15 for each female dog. Every
such dog must constantly wear a collar
distinctly marked with the register num
ber and the owner’s name. Every other dog
must be killed by officers of the law, or any
one else, and SI is paid as a bounty for kil
ling. Any person keeping an unregistered
dog may be lined $7, or imprisoned 30days,
or both, and the same penalties apply for
killing a properly registered dog injusti-
fiably. All damages done by a dog arc paid
for by the town and collected of the owners
by the town. In theMiddleburgh (Connecti
cut) Constitution of Junel0th|we find the fol
lowing list of names of 131 dogs registered
up to that date, which shows the popular
namesfor these animals: Jack, Dick, Prince,
Jip, Spot, Major, and River, being the
highest favorites; four in italics, are fe
males. Ben, Beauty, Billy, Bravo, Bruce,
Brunt, BioWnie, Bruno, Carl, Carlo, Charlie,

ASHES AS A MANURE.
This
*v(t:
Ashes are largely used in the neighbor
hoods of large cities, but often are very in
ferior in consequence of the mixture of
those from coal and wood. There is no
chemical action from such a mixture to in
jure either. The inferiority consists in ad
ding the coal, whicli is of moderate value,
to the wood, which possess great virtues in
the production of certain crops, and for
grass dressings. On our farms in the in
terior, ashes are obtained in small quanti
ties and even those within reaefi from lire
places, log heap.-, &e., are not carefuliy
preserved. While upon the subject we will
treat it, however, as fully as if they were
used on every farm in considerable quan
tities and tor a variety of crops. We no
ticed sometime ago, that a writer, profess
ing to give his views from personal experi
ence, said that he considered good'tdileach
ed wood ashes to be worth one a
bushel as a manure for corn. • Wejlliaughl
this idea extravagant, but we i/new rrain
personal experience that they gave a vigeu-
ous growth to that grain and filled th“
ears with full and perfect grain A .4 gotii
many bushels can be saved on • rv -farm
with but little trouble, and Their value
makes it wortii the pains of their preserva
tion. W T e would suggest their being daily
emptied in old barrels or boxes placed
where the rains will not affect them.
Many use ashes to make soap; we doubt
tlic economy of tiiis even though t!*e leaclr-
ed ashed possess some merit as a manure.
In large qities ashes are exchanged for
soap, but the one who gets the asheti’al
ways gets the best of the bargain, still the
exchange may, in most instances, be well
tor the owner of the ashes it lie has. no
farm or garden on which to apply them.
Soap is cheap and it is better for those who
have farms or gardens to buy the soap and
use the ashes as a manure.
Ashes are good for all soils that produce
Irish potatoes, turnips and other rooks,
clover, lucerne, peas, beans,. corn, wheat,
oats and other grains. Our farmers donot
obtain them in sufficient quantities, to
manure fields of wheat, oats, Ac., for it re
quires, in sucli eases, from 35 to 20 tusi.ols
of unleached ashes per acre, and from 25 to
39 bushels of leached ashes. We however
would not recommend the use of leached
ashes for those grains, for they may have
lost so much of their potash and sodas as
to make them of little value; wiere they
are possessed in small quantities, it is best
to use ashes on Irish potatoes, garden peas,
beans, turnips, Ac. They will have a won
derful effect on these.
Tlie h Glowing is a good mixture for these
crops and also for more extended space, for
wheat, corn, Ac., nameiy: Ashes, bone
dust, gypsum, (plaster) mould from tlie
woods, muck, pent, and burnt earth (clay
is best.) it is not necessary to have so
many bushels of one to so many bushels
of the others, make the mixture and put
wiiat you have of the ashes with what you
piease of the bone dust, gypsum, Ae. They
are all good and there is no chemical repul
sion in the materials. They have affinities
for each other and work harmoniously to
gether. We allude to burnt earth. This,
alone, is a line manure. Make a little kiln
and burn the clay. Every pound of it will
show in the growth of plants without any
other manure, but it will be bettor, put In
the above stated mixture.
Experimentalists have said, the mixture
of unleached ashes with stable manuic, and
other manures strongly charged.with am
monia, sets free much of the ammonias,
and thus impairs its value. Tiiis is doubt
less true, but in the above mixture' ashes
will do good anil no harm.
(Jlay lands will take advantageously,'
more ashes than light soils and on such
lands the coal ashes will be bC great Benefit
in loosening the soil. TiikT fs' filer chief
merit they possess. They should never be
put up.iu light soda. We !«*»> ffcteuriuti
our viewa upon-ashes-mw-h tfioro TifSir we
expected and will close by saying that at
all times, old pastures and grads lands and
meadows will lie greatly improved by a
dressing of ashes, leached, or .unleached.
Mix with a little earth, portjapewor ypijshG
ly moistened, for the convontonce of spread
ing thorn. The dews and rains will do the
balance of the work, and soon give them a
greener coating, beautiful to the eye and
delightful to the grazers. _

[London Truth, July 10.]
During the repairs to the Guards Club
rendered necessary by the late lire, the
members are guests of the neighboring
clubs, the Oxford and Cambridge. The pres-,
cnee of the Guardsmen is marked by an
unwonted display of white shirt-front and
cambric, whilst the approbation of these
gallant sons of Mars at the hospitality
they receive was amusingly exemplified by
a remark one was overheard to make to
tlie other: “I had no idea the middling
class lived so well at tiieir clubs and drank
such good wine.”
NO MORE INDIGNANT READERS.
[Benion (Nev.) Tri-Weekly Letter.]
The reading matter which appears in the
Tri- Weekly Letter is set up at the case, with
out manuscript or copy of any kind, save
an occasional note indicating tlie subject to
lie mentioned. No proof is taken of the
matter, and from the peculiar arrangement
of ou: new and improved office no proof
can be taken of it, save at considerable
trouble and delay. The press we use is not
a printing press, and never before was us
ed as such. Any printer from a first-class
city office would pronounce it impossible to
get out a paper in any shape with the fa
cilities enjoyed in the Letter office It is in
consequence of such a state of affairs that
in a ny cuors and inaccuracies should find
pbei . -way into tlie paper, small as it is.
With those few prefatory explanatory re
marks we will at once proceed with our re
quest: We request every one of the nu
merous readers of the Tri-Weekly Letter im-
-iuedi:it>ly on receipt of the paper to take
out his or her pencil and commencing at
the first line on the first page read it care
fully through marking as they occur every
error—tlien tlie reader has a perfect copy
to tile away. Those not having pencils will
be supplied on application at this office.
And % adopting this rule our readers will
enjoy an advantage possessed by the read
ers of no other paper in the world. If you
find anything objectionable or offensive or
personal to yourself, you have only to
draw your pencil over it and there you
are wit h a paper just to suit you—becom
ing, as it were, your own editor—and five
minutes after the paper is out you won’t
have to be running all over town looking
for liie Tri-Weekly Letter man when he is
safely hid away in the sage-brush.
[Augusta Chronicle.)
Under the Jaws of Georgia, private char
ters granted since January 1,1823, can be al
tered or abolished by the state, while those
granted before that date cannot, an ! in
view of tiiis fact it can be seen that the
rights of each company dependod upon the
time when its charter was granted. If be
fore tlie first of January, 1863, the state
could not increase the rate of tax set out in
tile charter, while if subsequent to that
date the whole matter was in the hands of
tlie state. Such being the real simplicity
of these famous railroad tax cases “when
striptof all the artificial legal toggery which
has also been so industriously thrown a-
round them,” what becomes of the invalu
able public services of General Toombs?
Surely the attorney-general (first Mr. Ham'
moud and now Mr. Ely) was entirely com
petent to conduct the machinery of an or
dinary suit at law, when all the legal
principles involved had been settled years
before. '

The purchase of the Florid* Baptist, its good

added p larger number to Its already large list

means of communicating with the Baptists of
