Frederick the Great, whose prirtcipol deal for many years was in the lives and blood of men—in one of his battles, hap pening to turn his heart round, lie saw his nephew, the hereditary Prince, fall to the. ground, his horse being killed un der him. The Koyal uncle, thinking liis kinsman and heir was shot, exclaimed without stopping—“ Ah ! there’s the Prince of Prussia killed ; let his saddle and bridle be taken care of!” Anacharsis Cloots, a vain anil imputa tions Materialist, while he was standing before the guillotine, requested the ex ecutioner to let him suffer the last of the parly, because he was desirous of making a few observations upon Materialism as their heads fell. Fabre d’Kglantine was an author : and When going to the guillotine, one of the things which seemed most to trouble him was, that lie had left tin unpublished co medy among his papers, and mistrusted that ilillaud Varenucs would publish it as his own. A young surgeon when first beholding the avenues of the temple of Juggernaut itrewed with sculls and human bones, instead of being struck with horror ut the spectacle, he exclaimed with rap ture, “0 what a glorious study is here !” On a time not very long past, when the tyowpox was coming into general use in England, it met with most violent opposi tion from physicians employed in the imall pox inoculation, of whom one gave it as a serious reason for continuing in the old way, that in the populous part of London, where the abundance of children exceeds the means of prov iding food and raiment for them, the small pox ought to lie considered as a merciful provision of providence to lessen the burthen of a poor man's family. Laborde, a commercial man, who was connected with a trading house iti Paris, tn his work entitled “ A View of Spain,” very naturally remarks,—*• General o- pmion considers the reign of Charles 1. as the most brilliant period in the annals of Spain; for that was the epoch when the exportation of cloths, and other stuffs commenced.” An Englishman travelling in Holland, expressed by an interpreter, to an emi nent merchant there, his regret, that not understanding the language, lie was una ble to enjoy the pleasure of his company : —to which the Dutchman coldly replied, ’‘.Since having no connexion or dealing in trade together, our conversing could not possibly answer any useful purpose.” I arkin<on, a British tourist in Ameri ca. refuses to our Washington the term Great, while the superlative of hum ... greatness he confidently attributes to far mer Bakewell : of whom he says,— There is no record of such a mail exist in r upon earth in any age whatever.— No v all this is natural enough. Mr. Bakewell had been the most celebrated breeder of cattle in all England ; and Mr. Parkinson had been himself an eminent breeder of cattle in the English county Ol Lincolnshire. tuve.. Tin- period has indeed arrived in the I nited States, particularly in that part cast of the lllue Ridge; when the cull iv atom of the soil, should begin tn preserve tln ir re maining wood laud, and improve that, which has been cut down and exhausted. The no- ee-sitv of such a course has been hut little attended to in this state, mid from jour re marks, perhaps as little so in yours. From the exertions of such societies, however, a spirit may he aroused, which may be pro ductive of much good. Von observed, that you had hern informed, that considerable improvements hat e In on made in this coun ty ; and, that from a detailed statement of tneopcralirfWs on my farm, you expected to receive some hints, that might be useful to your society. lain not aware, from what source,Tour information tvas derived, but 1 feel confident that from the pen of a plain farmer, forced by necessity to change n bad systehl of culture, that but lilt!" light can be afforded to the. subject. With pleasure,-how ever, I w ill render all the service in my power By a mode of cultivation, the reverse of what was formerly practised, Ike products of the soil have bf-eit greatly Increased in when ruin falls it does not run off so rapidly hut soaks into the soil on the level above each row, and is there longer retained,and conse quently, the crop is less liable to injury from drought than that planted in the iimi.iI way, where tho water quickly passes oil dow n the row s. Till! advantages of plaster of paris as a ma nure, are no longer considered doubtful in this section of country. Il is almost univer sally used in corn crops, as in these its effects are speedy and profitable. It operates on all kinds of soil hern, almost equally well, but ill what way, is not easy to tell. It is also generally used on red clover, and its ef fect on this grass may he considered as the greatest means of improvement, in this see- lion of country. The land oil w hich Indian corn is raised, is sown down in wheat or rye, and in the succeeding spring it should be sown in red clover. The proper time for sowing clover seed depends much on the season. Clovi r is liable to be destroyed while young, by severe cold, by inserts, and warm dry weather: there is, however, more to fear from warm drought, than from cold Fro n experience, 1 am sati -lu-d that the way. Tim straw nf clover, cut for seed, ia also an excellent manure, and from some experiments, 1 am satisfied this same hull, is equal to the best stable manure.—The high prince of clover seed, makes that article a considerable item in tin expenses of a farm ; as it is generally necessary for it to be sowed every tune after the land is cultivated. For a few yeas past, 1 have gathered the heads of clover with a small micliine, and sown it in that state. Were farmers to adopt this plan generally, they could gather enough seed, without the necessity of cleaning it, which requires much labour. The machine, is a box-like frame, about I feet wide, ii feet long, and 1 foot deep, open before with a comb of wood, iron or steel attached to tilt floor of the box, w ith teeth about twelve in ches long. This frame is fixed upon two small wheels, with a handle behind to ele vate or depress the comb, agreeable to tile height of the clover. A horse is harnessed before the comb, and tin: frame is drawn along taking off the heads of the clover in its progress. Though red clover Is preferable for pasture to any grass wc have, yet 1 do not think it possesses those advantages for hay. It is very apt tn fall before it is fit to cut, to tin open by frost and h fore rain settles it. But I and i a-y to break k. waste, after being cured, the advantages of clover fer pasturage, and and when cured, the hay is not lu-avy. All FROM THE AMlailCAK FARMER. NO.

With an ardent de- are for the advancement oHcnowledge in the cultivation of the soil, the most necessary b t e most Interesting of all human pursuits ; I v nil comply with your request, as far as my limteil experience and observation, and ray fr. hie abilities will admit. J regret however, that I shall be so little able to do iustice to the sohjeet. J I rejoice In learn, that societies, such as "wtt bp which jrou belong, arc forming, and kinds of stock however arc i xtremcly partial to it. Win n sown with orchard grass, they form, 1 believe, the best upland crop for hay. Tlie-e two produce, a heavy crop in good upland, are easily cured, and stock arc a.- partial to the hay as to that of clover alone But for liav, timothy is much to he preferred on a lev, I clayey soil, without sand. In this section the crops of hay produced from it, are greater than from any oilier grass, and in quality inferior to none. The effect of plaster of paris, on the soils here, where it lias been used is not very dis- fernahle. I am however, induced to believe that it gradually stiffens the soil, which is here light and triable, thereby rendering il but ter for w heat; hilt this is only con jecture : time and greater observation are necessary to establish this opinion. We know that plaster of parks, operates ns a most powerful manure, and without knowing tlie precise manner in w hich it operates, we continue its use as a great means of fertilization. Since the introduction of clover and plas ter, the cut worm-has sometimes been very destructive to the corn in the spring, particu larly in cold seasons. Several experiments have bet n made, which go to prove, that by planting corn in land well broken the prece ding f;II, their ravages will lie mostly pre- vented. By ploughing in the fall, the insects are exposed to the frost of winter, and per ish before t lie coruis planted. Before. I close 1 will mention a little experiment 1 made a year or two since. It is generally seen that eorn, wheat, or any crop will not flourish near a fence of woods ; and that for a con siderable distance, nothing of importance w ill grow. Impressed with the belief that the land adjoining the w nods, was exhausted ■by the roots of the trees, and that the crop was seldom injured'hy the shade alone, lent a ditch on the east side ol a piece of tall woods, deep enough to cut nil the horizontal roots, and several hundred yards long ; and 1 have been gratified to observe that the pro duct of tlie field was as good up to the very hank of the ditch, as in any other part of the field, though it was shaded near half of tin- day. 1 am so well satisfied with the result ol this experiment, that 1 shall repeat it in every situation that may require it. J have thus endeavoured in my poor way to give you all the. information in my power the points requested, though without sys tem and unconnected. Wishing your society success in the objects of their pursuit, and hoping that you may render service to tlie xicultural interest, I am with inspect, Sir, your humble sorv’t, JOHN S. SLAUGHTER. George JK Jeffreys, Esq, this section of country. This improvement best time for sowing, is when the earth is I injury id the hay : it is difficult to cure well in agriculture, was brought about by a state of things, similar to that you mentioned as existing with you. The previous modes were not only unprofitable to the cultivators, but highly destructive to the soil itself. To bacco wax followed by Indian com, wheat succeeded, repeated crops of corn fi wheat followed, till the soil was exhausted, ti more woodland was cleared to supply the. loss, till there was but little more timber to spare.—- It became appart nt to reflet ling minds, tlint this course of cultivation could not long con tinue, and unless a change was effected, that an emigration to the fertile lands of the west, could only save them from extreme poverty . Such was the situation of luy farm in common with my neighbors, when about 1 years since, I commenced a system, which though it may have many objections, has been of infinite advantage'ln me. Before. I proceed to give you a sketch of that syst. in, it will be proper to gin you an idea of the country where it is practised. The Blue- llidge runs thu whole length of Ibis stat-- Si hounds the county of Culpeper, n conside rable distant e on its northwestern side. For about thirty miles below the ridge, the land is i-uiw deraldy uneven, broken here ii there with small mountains, and though not rich, yet well repays the cultivator for his indus try. In this section of country I reside, and my remarks are. intended to apply to that section only, with which 1 am well acquaint ed. I will here observe, that the impove rishment of the soil, was here rapidly has tened by the wretched mode of cultivating Indian corn. Notwithstanding the uneven ness of the land, it was the universal custom to plough shallow up and down the hills, £c thus exposed, the soil was inevitably washed away i.i large quantities lit' every hard rain, it hieli fell during the season of cultivation. I commenced by dividing my farm into four fields or shifts ; one of tliese I put in in- dian corn each year. With this system I commenced deep ploughing, which could only be done on this uneven surface, by ploughing round the hills, as nearly in a ho rizontal direction, as lh-: situation would ad mit. This mode of ploughing possesses ad vantages, which do not appear at first sight. By ploughing round a hill, the friction a- gaiust the mould hoard is considerably less, ami consequently favored hy the descent a greater turf may he turned than the plough v ill cut, mid with more ease than on n level. The hind being well broken in the spring, the com is planted in nearly a similar man ner, by rows listed horizontally to suit the. shape ofthe hills. There are lint few situa tions in this section of country, that will ad mit of cross ploughing in the cultivation of indian corn, without great danger from se vere washing rains. This system did not ob tain general use for some time in this neigh borhood, under the supposition, that it re-, quired more hoe work than the old mode : but this objection has nearly ceased, as it sa tisfactorily appears, that the additional quan tity of hoe work required, is very small,end • lie advantages arising from washings being thereby prevented, is great indeed. This mode of cultivating corn, I understand, is extensively practised in the country of Albe marle, Virginia, where it was first introduc ed hy Col. Thomas M. Randolph, at no dis tant period ; as I never beard of it in that county, till long since 1 practised it on my own farm ; and it is really surprising that the necessity of such a method did not soon er appear, and obtain general use. My mode of planting com is somewhat singular. The land, after being well broken with barshare ploughs, is listed in the horizontal manner. I have before mentioned, that in doing this, some judgment and experience are necessa ry to lay it off in the best possible manner, so as to avoid every direction that would tend to convey the water, so as to be liable to wash. Each hoer is accompanied Ivy a small hoy with a basket of corn, soaked and well rolled in plaster of paris. The hoer then opens a small hole in the list, (or where the land is well broken a small single furrow answers very well) the hoy that accompa nies him throws :n the corn, and it is imme diately covered; another hole is then made at a proper distance, which the hoer will soon learn to judge of, by a measure on the hoelielve, the boy throws in the corn, it is quickly covered, And so they proceed. This method may scorn tedious, hut in practice 1 have found that corn can be planted in as sliurt a time, asSti any other way. The crossing of the lists is saved, and this saving makes up for the diffcrtnoe, if any, in plant ing in the usual way. f After planting the cort), I seldom inter rupt it till tlie first ofjmjf, unless to harrow down tile clods, not yet dissolved after the spring ploughing; or to chop down bushes not cut by the plung 1 - Land, well broken in the spring, does not require the corn to be cultivated sooner in this climate. In tending the corn. 1 use what we call shovel ploughs, vv ilhout coulters, which are immediately fol lowed hy harrows, which lay the surliee le vel and lessens the dangerfrom heavy wash ing rains. I have often remarked, that on. land levelled by the harrow, large quantities of water in heavy rains will spread over the surface, without carrying oft' the soil, which would have certainly been the ease, had the surface been left uneven after the ploughing. I never plough my corn more than twice, followed hy tlie harrow, and often but once, with^k additional dressing with cultivating linrroWaalone.* These IBtiave bread teetii ijoim* ivJmR in Hi* sham (ScjMdi^; lines, and Ire of jP|eUiaRL'r«ki’iTnwIiJP soil, with hut ’filtlexfimf*' FotNpf I’Xral past I liuveflcen in thehahitootsink sidHpcoultcrs «C( fixedjb plough stocks, instead ofthe. plough in cultivating com, and hy following with the harrow, the soil is completely pulveri zed, without exposing it to the powerful ac tion of the sun. The draft is also less, and when the corn is not grassy, I would strongly recommend their use in preference to the as a means of fertilization, depend mostly on the effects produced unit by plaster of paris. These are indeed very great, wild I much doubt whether it were not better to sow plaster on land not exhausted, tor pasturage, than to sow clover seed without plaster.—In the first instance a luxuriant crop of white closer w ill spring up, in the next case do lor will fluiiridi in few situations. But with a dressing of half a l.uslu I or a bushel of plaster per acre, most sods, will here produce a most luxuriant crop. For pasturage, w e have no grass that can he compared with it, {-.id a light dressing of plaster the second year after it is sow u, w ill he of great sen ice. Vs pasturage, it is equally advantageous to horses, cattle, sheep and hog> except that the second crop cau-es horses to slaver very much. To no kind of stuck is it more aer- tiecab’e, than to hogs.—Where there is plenty of clover, it it seldom necessary to feed hogs from May till October; and in a good clover field, they will tlrrive faster than on corn. In the raising of hogs it is impor tant, that they should he alw ays kept grow ing, mid this is cheaper and better done-in a lidil nfelover, than in any other way, that has come under my notice. Distillers in this section of country, w ho generally turn their attention much to tlie raising of hogs, cultivate clover as the .principal support of their large stocks in the warm season, lings are apt to keep so fat >>n clover, that it is frequently difficult to rear pigs on that ac count. 1 have hitherto sowed my wheat, principally after corn, and 1 have generally succeeded pretty well. But after great crops of eorn. which under the system 1 have practised, my land now generally produces, 1 find that very large crops of wheat cannot reasonably be expected. 1 have lately began in addition, to sow wheat on clover lays. This has been con siderably practised in my neighborhood and with a success highly gratifying. We fal low our clover land fin wheat in August and September. Wc use no cross ploughing; but with largo harrows, the soil is pulverized, the wheat sown, and then harrowed or ploughed in, late in September. The late ravages of the Hessian Fly, make it unsafe to sow earlier. The experience of this sec tion of country, is much in favour of fallow ing clover laud for wheat at this season. It season of more leisure, and the product is greater, than oil land fallow ed in .he spring and crossed afterwards. In ploughing land, if the improvement of tho soil be the essential object, and this should be the object of every fanner, the great r the growth of vegetable matter ploughed in, the greater will be the improvement of the soil; but experience fa vours the belief, that wheat will succeed bel ter after the turning over a hare sward of grass, than of the most luxuriant crop. This is a subject that well dese rves the attention ofthe agriculturist, and I merely throw out the hint, as worthy of notice. As I observed before, my farm is divided into four shifts. Perhaps where putting in wheat on clovi r lays is much practised, live would be better; the size of any farm, how ever does not admit it; but under tho sys tem I have mentioned of cultivating my land, once in four years in corn, and following with wheat and clover, my farm has greatly improved. On land which, when I commen ced the system was scarcely worth cultiva ting ; I have for eight or nine years, averaged nearly : ix barrels of corn to the acre; and the two last seasons, which have been very favorable, I shall have averaged at least nine barrels, per acre.—Wheat on corn land, lias produced from ten to twenty bushels ; after sowing crops of corn, tho best w heat suc ceeds. On good laud fallowed in August and September, from fifteen to twenty-five bushels may !»■ expected. You :i“k is deep ploughing much practised, and what ate its advantages. Deep plough ing is becoming much more general every day, and this is greatly facilitated by the use of cast iron mould boards, which are now generally used here. By a little use they become bright and smooth, the obstruction is consequently less, and deep ploughing is more easy. The advantages of deep plough ing in corn crops, are very great. The deep er the soil is ploughed the greater may be tlie quantity of corn planted on an acre, or any given quantity, and the crop thereby greatly encreased. At the commencement of mysystem of fanning, my eorn was plan ted about six feet by three. I now plant it cm tlie same land, five feet by two, in many places nearer, with two stalks in the hill, be ing near double as close as formely, and the crops are nearly in tlie same proportion. 1 have already stated my impression, that as a means of improving the soil, and for pasturage, that red clover is superior to any other grass amongst ns. On this, with plas ter of paris, we principally rely for fertili zing our land, when aided hy deep plough ing.— But mui li may be and ought to be done, by a careful attention to making and applying manure. In addition to manure front my stable, 1 pound ray cattle near my stack yard, adjoining a row of pens, in which wheat straw is nicely stacked up, so that the cattle can cut as much as they choose, and frequently Straw and corn husks, are spread over the pound, and after being pick ed over liv the stock, arc trodden down and incorporated with the other manure, and add greatly to its quantity. I have also for a few years past, drawn a considerable quan tity of corn stalks to the same place, wine’ are also picked, then trodden to pieces, and converted to manure in the same wav ; and I am strongly of opinion that as materials fn manure, that eorn stalks are greatly supe rior to wheat straw; were the practice gene rally adopted, of penning and feeding cattf on exhausted spots of laud, after being cm • 'red well with corn stalks, they would lie come prod’.ictii c, sooner than in auv other Fitter Iff*i titles, xril.t, be sold at the eimrt-bouSG in the town V T ot Dublin, Laurens county, within the usiiiil li ours of sale, on the first Tuesday in July next, Hip following properly, viz : One fraction of land on tlie Oconee river, rontainliig eighty-lit e acres, morn or less, ad joining Thomas, and others; also one fraction of land containing ninety Hcr^s, more or less, oil the Oconee river, and ndjoiningthenforesaid fraction ; and also one lot of land containing two hundred two nnd one ball’ acres, more or less, of land adjoining Dickson fc M’t.'all, nnd Thomas; nnrttiLoonc other fraction of land, containing one hundred acres, more or less, ml* joining Dickson nail M'Oull-— levied onus the property of Jonathan Sawyer, to satisfy an exe cution in favor of John I’owell. tine negro man named Abel, a negro woman named Sylvia,one bay horse, bridle and saddle, one cow nml calf, one yearling, nnd one chest carpenters tools—levied on as the property of F,.
