The Great Erie Railroad Case Decided | Our readers win remember the great Erie war I *rben the citizens ot Erie Pa , would not permit * railroad company of Onio to run through gfl Sown in violation of law, and in consequence of which foUs generally in New York demanded that President Pierce should send trie U.

The Court o!

The Philadelphia Ledger thus sums up Hr*b« decision on the Court: f They order tnat the defendants (the Erie and North-East Railroad Company) shall, on or he ir -'1 fore the expiration ot four months from this date, break op so much ol their road as lies upon the MMaid streets, and upon tb*; Burial-'road, and re move the material thereof, so es to leave the •aid street and road in as good condition as they were in before the construction of said railroad - They further adjudge that i:ie company shall ‘ within four months change the route and con struction of their railroau accordingly. and make their western terminus at what was the eastern line cf the said borough in 1842, or within the •aid borough. The del n lan's to reconstruct their railroad to supply the parts hereby ordered to be broken up, according to pians andspecifica tions to be by them made, and to be submitted and approved by the Supreme Court.

They had no “legal power in the premi es ” An -actor the legisla ture cannot be repealed or modified by the ordi nance of a city corporation. What t e defen dants did in disregard of the law was no less an offence against ’he rights o! the public, because the city was in some scr* parti-rps criminis. I both had persis'ed iQ it, the Commonwealth’s duty wouid have required her 1o see that the SK. rights ot her citizens were vindicated agam.-t both ’ Judge Lewis directed from the opinion of the majority of court, and Judge Lowrie deliveied r, !|*upplemental opinion, in w hich he bay* he would have concurred in a more stnngenf decree. We quote from hieopinion.es follows: L “ The detendants were incorporated in 1842 r—to make a railroad from Erie to the Slate line on the east, and it is very plain that the sole thought that was in the mind of the Legislature, in incorporating it, was to psovide a means ot commercial connection between the haiber of Erie and the State of New York. It is v*»ry plain, also, that this company has turned almost eotirely aside Irom this pu.pose to one that was not at all intended, and, with the aid of that frau dulent concern, the Franklin Canal Company’s roaJ, they have carried out their own main pur pose ot forming a connection between Ohio and New \ oik, and have converted ’lie intended and propel terminus ot their road into little hotter than a water station.’’ Judge L thus glances at the opinion held by a majority of our court, on an important point which we have omitted : **l am sorry that rry brethren think, that when an incorporated town or city is m ,’de the terminus o'’a railroad, the company Las, by im plication, a right to carry their road to any point witbirjpthe tow nor city, and along any ot its street*;that they may choose, and this without being it ali subject to the direction or restraint of the local authorities. 1 should have beer pleased to have the concurrence of my brethren in a contrary doctrine It seems to me tnat this is giving to mere private corporations or asso ciation* a superioity thus far over those public functionaries to whom the interests ot the public are intrusted, and this, too, by no necessary im plication. It seems Lard enough to have to ma. e such an implication in relation to a town or city that lies between the termini.” A Littli?

I He Late D*kl in Kentucky. —The Cia* I cinndti Gazette has the following account oi the dud that was fought ip Kentucky on Monday 1 ia t bnetly mentiond by telegraph a few days since: 3 Sometime since, .Mr. Henry Short Jr clerk on Fil th street, became attached to a beau tnully young iaday, residing on Filth street and i to whom be soon engaged himself lor marri- 1 age. Mr. Short, ab; ut a month age went to ! Pmiaddphia on a visit to ins parents, who ies;de on Cnestnut street, in that city. During his sb- I sence he received a letter from a fellow cierk, I that his betrotned lady love was keeping the company of a young "limb of the la w,” named Alexander Peacock, now a resident of Chicugo, but a native of this City. The letter gave Mr. f i rca!, on to believe that Peacock and his lady ove were engaged. Mr. S. reiurnrd home and touad that au had not been told him—that P. au s.antlered him, and detained his character to .eyoung ady,anu thus won her affections.— ! an ejc P lariat iori. he wrote to 1 eacock and the iauy, and demanded the same, i hey both treated him coldly, and requested Mr. . ot to annoy them with his communications -the young lady at the same time returning h-r engagement ring, This so enraged Mr S ’that he seat a challenge to Mr. P., which was accept ed, and rifles were chosen as the weapons be coads were appointed, who fixed the piece or., meeting and tune. No persons were prase nP except a few friends of each party, and their se conds. At the first fire no injury was sustained by either of the duellists. An effort was then made to reconcile the difficulty, but ne.ther par ty would listen to any compromise, and the par ties were ordered to their post lor the second fire. The word was given and Mr. S. fell bleeding to the ground, the ball having taken effect in his left shoulder. He was then picked up and ta ken to Mr. Brenson’s, farmer’s house, and his wound dressed. He is considered in a critical condition. It is now understood that when the young lady learned what had happened, she re fused to have anything to do with either parties and has resolved to break off ali engagements with each ot the gentlemen. It is, therefore, evident that in this case the old adage of " faint heart never won fair lady,” has been reversed. Correspondence of the Savannah Republican. Storm on the Ogechee. Bryan, Sept. Bth, 1854. Messrs. Editors:—Out here it looks very much as if old Dame Nature had a frolic, and forgot to put thu gs to rights, when she got through—or as old Daniel said to me this morning, when 1 pro posed a hunt, “ why Ma sa. ebry thing so “ con fusen”—the deer themselves don’t Know where to go.” He is pretty near right, ebry thing is bery confusion. 4 Twas a great pity one could not separate the feelings of the grand and the pecuniary, during the last few days—ior it was truly a grand sight, Pent up, as you were, with brick and mortar, surrounded with man’s work—falling roois and scattered tiles, were all that you denisons of a town could see. Had you been on a point of land with miles of waves, chasing each other, “ Like battle steeds with foaming manes When tossing in the wind all around you, as far as the eye could reach, the wild waves dashing against the snore, sending their spray miles inland on the furious gale—old oaks, whose gnarled limbs have tossed in stub born resistance to the storms ot centuries having to yield before a powertoo mighty even tor their biave struggle. The very fish in their own ele ment, tossed and beaten about, until they floated liteless on the shore. The animals, with droop ing heads flying to the thickest coverts from the fury of the gale in the more open fields, with low moaning evincing their tenor at this out break of nature’s power—you would then have seen how old Dame Nature lrolics And yet we could not but feel amid this exhibition ot power and tury, that each higher wave, each more fu rious blast, was engulphing thousands upon thousands of dollars, the bard earned success of the last year’s toil. The loss on our river has been very great. Fully one half, if not more, of the rice crop has been cut —that will be almost an entire loss—what was still uncut, must fall iar short in its yield; whipped and tossed, as it I was by the gale ere the waters covered it, then ; being under the salt water from two to three 1 days, will damage it still more. The salt water was forced up to the bridge, oveiflowing the banks on every place, the water reaching Mr. King’s piazza at the bridge. The cotton crops will be almost a failure, for the bolls and haves strew the alleys, leaving the bare stalks and branches a mocking signt to the | poor planter. But lew panels of fence were left standing, | and the mere destruction of the beautiful shade ! trees on some of the plantations is in itself enough to make one feel sad. They say good is to be derivered from all ; things—faith, unless it has borne on its strong wings, the latai disease, which has already made so many homes sad in our fair city. It puzzi s ; us out here to find it. The wiki ducks, next winter, will have a glorious harvest, and the fish who lute a lice diet, can have their full contents. I hope to get back part of my ciop next win ter, in the shape ot iat wild ducks. No iives lost and but few buildings injured. We will ali have to adopt the motive, 44 no use to cry over spilt lice” this time, and with the planters usual consolation in ail troubles—trust | to the next crop— Yours, &e. M. P. S. I forgot to mention that the rise of tide j ut my landing, over the usual tide, was lour feet one inch, and the fall of water a portion under two inches, although l find, the fall of rain va ried a good oeal in different parts of the country. Th# Baby. O, yes, take the baby along by all means. Ba bies love dearly to ride in the cars and toddle about in steamboats Why, the baby is the life of the party. We have known a whole room full or people, entertained by one, hour after hour. Sleeping or waking, the prettv little cieature that caii lisp a little Engiisn or French, one can haidiy tell whicn. is the 'Universal de light, and many a party has been stupid lor tne want of one. In old times, when they used to journey in stages, a lady who had a sweet little child with her could scarcely cull it hci own the w:,ole way, the gentlemen weresoiond ol cairying, keeping it. Why, the bacnelors loved to play with and dandle her on tneir knees, though at first tuey might be a lit le bashtul and awkward in taking hold of the strange and unaccustomed thing.— But the smiles and winning ways ol the baby were always irresistible, and sure to overcome at last the most obstinate bachelor. People love babies as they do flowers.. Gentlemen especi ally, who are fond of flowers, like babies, the sweetest ol them ail, to carry in their hands, just as they Would put a carnation m their button holes. How babies and butteiflies do swarm in sum mer, to be sure ! It is then they are on the wing. Pray, don’t .try to keep them Irom Hying about and alighting here and there when something strikes their fancy, opening and shutting their haiins and wings awrule, then flitting away again. Ye, that have babies! don’t go any where without them. Batter leave your purse behind, it wtii be less missed. The light ot your eyes will be quenched, and your tongue will miss its inspiration. What a literary everlasting topic is the baby ! She does this, she did that. Baby laughed in her sleep. Her mother does believe it was because she saw something which one so lately irom the skies could only beh id. Baby can say this woid, and hides away some times from her mamma, though ail hut her nose and eyes are in plain sight. Ye, who have no baby ! get the lawful owner ship ol one as soon as possible. You don’t know what a fountain of pure lehcity it is. She is the light and joy ot the whole house. The sweet little creature is the brightest jewel in ynur cabi net, and ornamental to your drawing-room ; the choicest garland in your garden; the most inex haustible ot entertaining company. There is no solitude where a baby is. Care and trouble dis appe >r at the approach of the happy, laughing little cherub. She is chloroform to your anxie ties and exhilarating gas to your pleasures. We adopt the style ot advice ot a money-loving lath er to his son, with a change of a word or two “Procure a baby, friend—honestly, of course, but at any rate be sure arid get one.” A graceful vine she will be to you in youth, which will support you in the infirmities of age — Newark {X. J.) Advertiser. The Literary axo Aromatic Lady. —Some of the papers having mentioned that a vveil known lady had been ‘’the rounds” to obtain subscriptions foi her book and alter getting the ! money marks herself oblivious; and the editor ol the Cha lie;-town Advertiser having been hontied with a call, the good man discourses as follows: j “ sh e called to see us, and promised to send us i * copy- She spread a soft, plump white hand upon our table, before our feasting eye, and the perfumne f r om an embroidered handkerchief which she held pleasingingiy, filled our nostri s She touched us softly with vanity, spoke of the services she had received irom the dear editors invited us to call and see her daughters at the Wintnrcp Hons?, and annointed us over and over | with the most delicious “blarney.” Owing to a vacunm in our treasury, we did not pay in ad vance, but ever since have been waiting patient ly lor the advent of the book ; but we .earn that some of the youthful and venera! le gentlemen in this vicinity did secure her pleasant smiles and a u l u-e copy by prepayment. When she Jeff, the room continued flagrant with the aroma of her presence The mateiial author of so much merit has never appeared since then.” A \ Amiable Girl. —This is a young lady of pale and pensive countenance, not pretty, hut I interesting. She dresses in white, and wears a bouquet. She sits close to her mamma and the Wa V Be , ntlemau ,s introduced lor the next quadr.lie. She bows her head and moves “race fully to the place, inhaling by the way the fra grance of her inseparable bouquet. A most in teresting and edifying conversation then takes place, which consists of a sort of drawing-room soliloquy by the gent eman, with echoes of some ol his words at appropriate intervals by the lady To all direct questions she returns the shortest possible answers. She has lew opinions of her own; and her silence proceeds in some degree from mauvaise hont ; but in a greater degree from having nothing to say.—Yet, though she is thus icy to you, she thaws wonderfully, you hear, among her intimates.—Then she is* highly ac complished. She draws beautifully, and sings divinely, it is said : but cannot utter a note if any one be present, she is so nervous. She is addicted to novels, but only those of a sentimen tal order. She marries Mr. Rawson, a little at torney in a large way of business—and the u amiable giri” becomes a matterot tact woman, j Astronomical Observations iha Coal-pit. —Ou Saturday Professor Airy, Astronomer Royal, paid a visit to the colliery district of the [ Tyne, in pursuit ot curious and important as- j tronomical observations. For that purpose he was taken by Mr. Mather, a scientific gentleman belonging to South Shields, down Horton pit, tne deepest in the Tyn w , 1200 teet deep, to ex amine it it were possible to make a.rangements in it for a series of delicate experiments and ob- ; servations in reteience to the pendulum, and the earth's action upon it there, simultaneously with similar ones on the surface, with a view to de termine the weight of the eartn and planets. Mr. Anderson and the other'proprietors and offi cers ot this splendid mine gave every iacihty to the Astronomer Royal, and tendered not only tne : use of the mine, but their own persona services, i lor any future occasion.— Lmvion Times. Excessively Literary. —How a young lady endeavoured to adapt her style ot conversation to the character of her guests, is narrated in a Ohio paper. Tom Corwin and Pom Ewing be ing on a political tour through the State, stopped at the house of a prominent politician at night, but found no one at home but a young niece, who presided at the supper table. She had ne ver seen great men, and supposed they were eie pharmue altogether, and all talked in great lan guage. “ Vlr Ewing, will you take condiments in your tea. sir,” inquired tire young lady. "Yes, I Miss, il you please/'replied the quondam 6alt boil ; er, Corwin’s eyes twinkled. Here was tun tor him. ! Gratified at the apparent success ot her first trial 1 at talking to big men, the young lady addressed I Mr. Corwin in the same manner, “ Will you i take condiments in your tea, sir?” “Pepper and , salt, but no mustard,” was the prompt reply of ! the fasetious Tom. Ot course, nature must out, : and Ewing and the entertainer roared in spite lof themselves. Corwin essayed to mend the | matter, and was valuable in anecdote, and wit, : and compliment But the wound was immedi j cable, ihe young lady to this day declares that lorn Corwin is a coarse, vulgar, disagreeable man.

The in jury to the cotton and rice crops on the coast must be immense. Our yards ami the roads are * literally blocked up with fallen trees, fully'.is much so, I think as from the hurricane of 1842. We have not time to ascertain the lull extent ot | the injury yet. No lives have been lost in this a iemity. as the storm occurred in the day. Yours,&c. C. H. H I Injury to the Rice Crops.— ln addition to the particulars already given, we learn that the damage to the Rice crops in South Carolina has been as great as in Georgia. The holds on Com , bahee river were six leet under water, in many ! places, and the crops along that stream and the i western branch ol the Cooper river have suffer ed greatly. FI e damage was immense also on the Carolina side of the Savannah river as far up as Laurel Hill and Barnsbie landing. The salt water was carried up to those points, and ail the \ ‘-‘ut rice was floated off. The injury to banks j and canals has been great throughout Carolina. ; — Sav. Rep., 14 Ihinst. Damage on St Catharine’s Island. We I regret,,to learn that much u jury was done to St. ; Catharine’s Island by the hurricane of the Bth. The plantations of Mr. Jacob Wald burg and Mr. George Waldbu.g have suffered considerably. — | Their whaif was carried away, their houses were i much damaged, and their Sea Island Cotton crops I destroyed. Th. sloop “ Splendid’’ is now high and dry upon the Island.— lb. j Rain—The Crops —We have at last been blessod wiih copious rair.s. Last Thursday night a strong north west wind commenc j ed, which continued through the night and ail day Fiiday most of Friday night. Saturday i rain fell in light showers during the day. Suu -1 day was clear. Monday afternoon we had a j tremendous rain. The effect on Cotton will be I rather injurious than oteerwise. It will howev -1 er benefit late corn, and will make of peas and potatoes, 50 per cent better. We have examined our exchanges carefully, and are gratified to perceive that although the giainorop generally throughout the Union will be short yet the y ield will be example lor home con sumption, and leave consideiable quantity lor exportation. From all that \ve can gather, vve are of tae opinion that the panic which has ex isted for several weeks in regard to provisions is 1 unnecessary and unfounded The recent lains have been universal.— Athena Banner , 14 th inti. Buffalo, N. Y., Sept. 1 ltb .—Frost at Buffalo. —The weuthe r here has been quite cold since the rain. Last night there was a fine frost, Philadelphia, Sept. 13— The Savannah Suf ferer» —A meeting of merchants was held at* noon to-day at the Philadelphia Exchange, for furnishing aid to toe Savannah sufferers by yel low fever. A committee ot thirty was appoint ed ?o receive the contributions of our citizens and the Mayor of Savannah was authorized to draw on the Chairman of Ihe Committee for SI ,- 000, to commence with There is said to be a man in New Brunswick ninety-six years of age. who reads the newspa pers printed on the finest type, and is waited upon by a great-great grand daughter eighteen years of age, who is but thrje feet and three fourths of an inch tall.

SATURDAY MORNING, SEPT. 16^T See first page of Daily, this morning. Health of Augusta. There was quite a stampede of citizens jes terday in consequence of the reported case and death of a negro girl by Yellow Fever in our city of the day previous. We hope by the time most of them reach their journeys end, we may have tue pleasure of assuring them that there ex isted no cause for their speedy flight. The num ber that lett in all directions, created a panic. Perhaps it is well for those left behind, as well as for the commercial interest of the city, that they have gone, lor had any of them been taken with an August and September tilious fever, they would have imagined Yellow Jack had possession of them, and thus been the means of increasing a temporary panic. We give below the report of our Board of Health, from which it will be seed that no death by yellow lever occurred in our city yesterday and will keep our readers advi ed of all deaths occurring by this disease, coming to our knowl edge, whether they originate in this city or are brought from abroad. Meeting of the Board of Health. Council Chamber. Augusta,) Friday, Sept. 15, 5 o’clock P. M. J The Board ot Health reports that no death from Yellow Fever has occurred within the last 24 hours L L. Antony, Sec’y. Board Health. Health of Savannah. We learn from a passenger w’ho arrived, last evening from Savannah, that there was 34 m termerments in that city yesterday. A telegraph despatch received by a gentleman yesterday, gives the melancholy tidings of the death ot J. Olmstead, Cashier of the Fire and Marine Bank. He died at 2, p. m., yesterday of Yellow Fever. Health of Messrs. Wardard Bartow. The latest advices we have, convey the grati fying intelligence that borthof these gentlemen continue to improve daily. Look to your Premises. We understand several cases of robbery oc curred on Thursday evening. The Boarding House of Mr. Ramsey was entered, and a Gold Hunting Duplex Lever, and some money was taken. Mr Clarke, who stops at the Eagle & Phoenix Hotel, also lost his Pocket Book, con taining $l3O and sundry notes. We would re fer to advertisements in this day’s paper for de scription of property stolen. There is no doubt these rohberies were committed by negroes, and would advise all to keep a good watch and load ed pistols under their piilow. During the storm of last Saturday night and Sunday week eight inches of rain fell at New Haven, and six inches at Farmington, Conn. Frost —We learn, (says the N. Y. Journal Commerce of 12th inst.) that host was seen yes terday in some parts of Connecticut, where, 36 hours before, the beat was oppressive in the ex treme. A Navy Captain Cashiered. —The Wash ington Star states that Capt. Samuel W. Down ing, of the U. S. Navy, who was recently tried by a general naval court-martial, at Philadelphia, was found guilty of all the charges preferred against him, with the exception of the charge of “disobedience of orders,” and sen'enm! to be cashiered. The finding and sentence of the court having been approved by the President of the United States, Captain Dow ning has been notified that he will no longer be regarded as an officer of the Navy. Serious Riot at Washington, Va—Oa the 9 h inst., a riot occurred at Washington, Rappa hannock county, Va., between some citizens and those attached to Barnaul’s Menagerie, growing at first,out of the fact that a slave boy, as is alleged } was found with them, having been persuaded to leave hi 3 owner —and secondly, in reference to the charge for admission. Theriot became so serious, that the militia had to be ordered-out to restoro peace. Several persons were, injured, among them B. Eastham, a magistrate. Thirty-seven of the showmen were arrested and others flew to the mountains, subsequently four or five of them were committed for trial, and the rest discharged. Bread Wanted. —The Savannah Republican of 44th inst., says: The acting Mayor informs us that he has sent orders to Macon, Augusta and Charleston for daily supplies of Bread, of which it is almost impossible to obtain a loaf just now. in consequence of the death and sick ness of Bakeis. We have been compelled to eat crackers ourselves, for the last four days. On and alter to-morrow, therefore, destitute persons and others in need of Bread, may obtain it by sending to the Central Depot. Arrival of Physicians. —lt affords us pleas ure (says the Savannah Republican) to refer the reader to the cards of Dr. Bacon and Dr, Brant ly, who have come to the assistance of their pro fessional brethren here. This is true heroism and is above all praise. ; Sad —We regret to state, that a man killed ■ himself in Savannah on the 13th inst., by cut ting his throat during the delirium which usual ly precedes death in cases of yellow fev§r. ' State Aid.— Dr. Screven, acting Mayor of Savannah has received a tender from Governor Johnson of S a*e aid in behalf of the needy and distressed of that city, which oiTer will be held ' , in reserve and made available' only in case it may be required. We are, hoivever, (says the j Georgian) happy to be able to say, from the prompt response, in every direction, at the sound of woe in our midst, we are not likely to want tor money. Good nurses -sre in demand, and more precious than silver or gold. The Light Boat Sapr,—We are glad tc learn (says the Georgian) that the light boat be longing to Martin’s Industry, blown from her mooring in the hurricane of Friday last, is not lost, as was supposed. The two men on board are aiso saved, she was passed by the Weiaka yesterJay in Rumiey marsh, in tow of the steam er Planter. j The Mobile Register, of the 10th inst., says: ‘‘ By reference to the Sexton’s Report, it will be seen that the number of deaths for the week ending the 9th. are twenty-eight, five of which are from yellow lever. This is a slight increase in the bills of mortality, but we are not at all surprised considering the oppressive heat with > ' vhid !7 e ha / ve been visited Three were brought to the city in a dying state, and all but one were Hospital patients. The reader will perceive that for the last two aays there have been no deaths from this disease consequently no increase is expected. None of the cases mentioned, the Sexton informs us were citizens. The Evening News says: ‘We are assured by one of our physicians, that no case of yellow fever exists in our city at present, so tnere is still no cause for alarm.’ u Cholera abated at Mad lS on™.e.— The Loudon Free Press, of the 12th inst., says: “We | are indebted to Mr. J. Ruins Smith for the fol lowing extracts from a private letter : A tetter from Madisonvi/le, dated on Monday the 11th inst., says: one death of typhoid fever j on Saturday night last, (this was a black girl) Iso other cases of sickness in town or around town or this time; we hav’nfc had any cases of cholera for 10 days, in or near tne town.” Health of Charleston^ Office 0F City Register. 1 Charleston, Sept, 14th, 10 P. M. j There have been 19 deaths from Yellow Fe ver for the past 24 hours. J. L. DAWSON, M. D., C. R. Crops, &c. Extract of a letter, dated Elberton, Sept. 12th, 1554. We have had fine rains of late, which appears to be general. It will help Cotton a little, but mostly Potatoes and Turnips. The Corn crops in this county may be said to be sufficient for the country’s use. Some farmers have not made suffi cient—others a little over, and to spare. Cotton will be shorter than last year. I will now give you a bit of romance, which .came off in Lexington, Oglethorpe county, last week. A young man arriving there a few w eeks ago, j registered his name at the Hotel as John Kirk- 1 land. After a few days, he made known to some ot the citizens, that he was from Madison coun ty, in this State, and had recently come into the possession ot a large estate in said county ; but had come to Oglethorpe to purchase a plantation, j He soon became the lion ot the day, and wisited ; m good society. After looking at seveia! plan- I tatioas, he purchased one for $9,000, for which papers were diawn, and a horse thrown into the i bargain, valued at $l5O. He then purchased a store-house for $5,000, and was to puichase the stock at a certain time—elertdng it awhile, to get accustomed to business and the customers of the store—he then went into debt (credit good) with the unsuspecting and good people of Lex ington, purchased a fine gold watch lor $175, a fine suit of clothes, &c., &c , swapped horses, made a bad trade in this, borrowed a fine buggyr gallanted the young ladies about town ; then, as he wished to make a visit to Elberton for a dayi to get a sister, who was going to school to a Mr. Carter, and return the next day, he was allowed to make his exit, and has gone dean off. I con versed with a gentleman, who had seen h.ui the day he left Lexgington, and offered to trade him the horse and buggy. I also learn that his real name is William McMullen, and that he has re latives in this county; also, a wife, who, after being married to him a short time, has been sepa rated for the past three years, he being sent to the Penitentiary, to serve a term of three years' .and which time had just expired. His wife, and her connections are of a respectable portion of this community, and is now suing for a divorce. Such being the facts, what think you of our Pen itentiary system ? Is it not a commentary on its operations, as well as the case, that the good people ol Georgia can be r.uped. (communicated ) Sparta, Sept sth, 1854.

(continuai ion.) 15. Does all seed require magnesia as a con stituent ? lies. Magnesia is always found in lime from 1 to 40 per cent., and the proportion found in grain is equal to the lime. This proportion is not only got from the lime, but magnesia is found as a base in many rocks and stones, and by their de composition by the action oi the air and water it is furnished to the feeders of the plant, partic ularly to wheat, rye, bariy,r <•«, beans and peas. 18. Is there any other advantage in using mag nesia-lime over pure lime? Yes. It is a double salt as carbonate of lime and magnesia; its actions in regard to affinity and galvanic action are triple in the soil, to a single salt of lime; the humate lime requires2soo parts of water to render it soluble as focal for plants, whilst the humate of magnesia requires only ICO | parts of water for its solubility, so that the hu- I mate of lime is rendered more soluble by its be- I ing in contact with the humate of magnesia in solution. From our practical result, we prefer the application of 50 bushels of magnesia lime sto 100 bushels of pure lime, either as a top dress ; ing on the sod or ploughed iu on clay soil. 17. What is the difference in ploughing in or j top dressing oi lime ? ; In top dressing on sod, it is rendered more i readily soluble, by combining with the carbonic j acid brought down in the rain and that brought i up by evaporation from the soil forming a bicar bonate of lime and magnesia ; and if it is a clay 1 soil, or subsoil, the magnesia being a base, an ! I the alumina of the clay acting as an acid, a cht-m --; ieal combination takes place, forming alumina* 3 : of magnesia. Alumina has a greater affinity for magnesia than any ot the other earths or oxides in addi ' tion. Magnesia, in solution, will neutralize the fer -1 rie acid in the soil. The fernu,acid is a deadly | poison to ail plants, by corroding the feeders.— | 1 he advantage ot magnesia lirne over pure lime • has been proved by the application of miilionsof bushels used in Maryland and Pennsylvania, and in England and Scotland, j 18. Will it act on sandy soil ? j Yes. Particulaily where manure has been tarn | ed under, in the escape of the Carbonic acid gas, ! produced by fermentation of the manure forming ' the bi carbonate of lime and magnesia. In fil ■ j tering, it causes cohesion with the particles or the sand, renders it firmer and more retentive of : j water, gas and manure. j 19. What is the effect ol Hydraulic lime on 1 soil ? The 'ime known as Hydraulic, is composed of lime, sand, clay (or Alutnia) and iron. This ! lime is very valuable to white »sandy soil; ifc | forms a soil .that will withstand the drought from I the affinity of lime and clay for moisture; but i there must not be an excess used, as it will form I an insoluble subsuit; from 25 to 50 bushels per ! acre, depending oh the quality of the soil; if it j be a very sandy soil, 50 bushels; if it is a loamy | soil, then 25 bushels, top dressed, and not ! ploughed under—it is injurious to stiff clay soil. 20. Does lime or magnesia lime contain Phos | phoric acid ? Yes. In nearly all limestone or shell from | to | 1 per cent., and Potash is found in the blue or ! black limestone. 21. W hat rocks or stones contain lime * Shell, Limerock, Soapstone, Basalt, or Trap, ! Gneis, Chlorites, Epidote.
