Explanation of the Beautiful Natural Results of Thorough Draining. lie would now explain the beautiful natural results which would take place from thoroughly draining land. The whole of it would appear to he filled with air, and that being expelled by wa ter, had a beneficial effect. And he would mention a curious fact, viz: that if they kept the water moving on the soil, it would become beneficial, but the mo ment the water was allowed to stand, then it became injurious. . If they wish ed to irrigate the land, they would pro duce a much greater effect by having a current than by allowing the water to stand still. But water in falling through the atmosphere collected mat ters which were useful for plants, and ammonia, as such, was of great efficien cy. If the soil w<is in a condition that required ammonia, the water would leave the ammonia and pass through the land without it. But independent of this, the circulation of the atmosphere among the roots of plants was very beneficial, and when in any way the circulation of the air was obstructed, the plants would not be so much benefited as though there was a free cieculation of the atmosphere n mong their roots. Another process also took place after the draining had been effected, \yhich was by the action of the atmosphere. The stiff clay, after being throughly drained and subsoiled, became converted into mould. The mould be came converted by the application of husbandry and manure to a great extent; but it was changed in a great degree by the action of the sun and air upon the soil; the chemical action of the atmos phere on the soil changed its nature, which possessed oue great advantage, and that was, that soil had a tendency to concentrate itself into little masses of what they called mould, which gave the .soil a quality of greatly retaining the moisture every particle took tip its quantity of water, and and acted like a sponge. These masses had a great de gree of moisture to supply the plants in a dry season. In the working of the soil, and in the application of the subsoil plough, it was of importance to have a good soil on the surface. Almost all subsoils required exposure to the air, be fere they were iu a fit state to receive the roots of plants beneficially into the earth. It was a very good plan to turn up the subsoil; he had done some three times over with the subsoil plough, still retain ing the surface soil, and the subsoil had been turned into nearly as good land as the surface soil. They might dig down year after year after year, and bring up fresh soil and by that mens the land would be very much benefitted. Operation of Manure on Wet and Dry Noil. As to the application of manure to the laud, it was quite clear that the manure put into a dry soil, would take effect much sooner than if it had been applied when the land was in a wet state. If they put manure into water, it had no tendency to decay. If a stake was driv en into the ground, they would find that that part which was between wet and dry, would be decayed, whilst that part which remained in the water would be quite fresh. That was because a con stant chemical change Was going on.— Manures, straw, *tc, when put into the soil, and the atmospherick air admitted to them, would be more beneficial than if they were covered up with water.— Some people had suggested that there might be danger in thorough draining, because it allowed a great part of the manure to get away. There might be some truth in that, but experience had taught them that manure on a dry soil was much more quickly efficacious than when it was in a wet state. There were no benefits without some draw backs; and when a proper drainage was effected in the soil, some of the juice, perhaps, might be carried off. Importance of having the Drains a proper Depth. Mr. Smith then urged that it was a most important point to have the drains sufficiently deep. He still saw in the country a tendency to form the drains too shallow, and persons still attempted to defend that fallacious mode of procedure by argument. The Duke of Portland had nearly 7000 miles of drainage in Scotland, 18 or 20 inches below the sur face of the ground, hut he was now per fectly convinced that the was wrong in putting in the drains so shallow. He had, therefore, given directions for his drains to be formed at a depth not under two feet and a half; and those drains which were 18 inches deep, and had not been sufficiently successful, had been or dered to be taken up and laid at a greater depth.

THE approaching session of Congress will, doublles, be the most important one, in many respects, in the annals of American politics. The occurrences will be interesting to every citizen, and we shall make extensive arrangements to spread before our readers the earliest, most elabo rate, and must correct accounts of every transpires at the capital. The proceedings of Con gress will be minutely attended to, and speeches delivered iu both Houses given at length. The approaching Congress will ditler in many re spects from any other ever convened. The Execu tive will be firm and just, aud yet courteous and conciliatory to all the parties that compose the Con gress, so that in the political conflicts, which may be anticipated, the PEOPLE'S interests may not be altogether neglected. One party will have the as cendancy in the Senate —the other in the House, while the President will strive, in behalf of the country, to harmonize their legislative action. Congress will find that, under the present Execu tive, the revenues being in responsible hands, no defalcations have occurred, and that tbc agents, en trusted with the public funds, have merited the con fidence of both parties. It will find a tariff some what imperft ct, and differing from the one recom mended by Air. Tyler, passed in the House by the casting votes of twenty-one Democrats — thirty-fitc Clay whigs voting against it; while in the Senate four or five Democrats voted for it, and twice that number of Whigs against it. It will find that the currency of the country is in a sounder condition than it has been for twenty years, and that too with out a Bank, or any thing of a kindred nature ; w hile the five millions of Treasury notes authorized to be issued bearing six per cent., are taken by the Gov ernment creditors xcitlwut any interest at all. It will find demagogues and political managers busy cheat ing the People as usual, preaching distribution, as sumption of state debts, bank, &c. Bui they can never make much progress while Mr. Tyler is Pres ident. All these exciting subjects will be agitated for the benefit of Presidential aspirants. At such a time, it is necessary that the citizens in every section of the Union should know what is done by their representatives, and be acquainted with the import and design of the debates and move ments in Congress. The session will no doubt be long, as well as intensely exciting, and hence the in ducement to subscribe for the Madisonian by the year. TERMS: (always in advance.)

THE undersigned, at the solicitation of many friends proposes to publish, in the village of Marietta, Cobb County Georgia, a weekly newspsper under the above title. He is assured that a well conducted newsptpir is much wanted in this region, and so tar as his humble efforts will go, should be meet w ith encouragement, the Advocate shall add to tin- reputation of the Chero kee Country, affording as it does, the most salubrious dime, w ith a fertile aud productive soil, not surpassed in the Union. The Advocate will be decided in its poli ics, while at the same time due res reel wilt be paid to the opinions of those who may ditf r with us. Believing in a strict construction of the Constitution, as the only sure guar antee lu the Institmiuus of the (South, and of the two great parties now before the country, that the Demo cratic Party, with John , . Calhoun at its head, is the one on which to look for the carrying out those princi pies, the Advocate will support the principles of that Party, and the man, whoever he ntay be, selected by the National Convention to carry out its principles. Agriculture —that most imgsrtanl branch of industry, will not be neglected in the pages of the Advocate. To this branch we shall devote much attention, and in addition, to such selected articles, as may be of interest to this section, we will endeaver to procure the assis tance of the farmers in Western Georgia, who, by giv ing their own experience and mode of cultuie, will bring forward others, and thus all reap a benefit. The Advocate may also be looked to for such items of news as we may receive from different sections of the country, ami a portion of its pages will be devoted to light reading. It will be an object of the undersigned to make the Advocate such a paper as every subscriber will feel a pleasure in perusing himself, ana in placing before his family, and w hen Ins year expires, renew his subscription with a smile on his countenance. The Advocate will be printed on an Imperial sheet with new type, press, &c. at Three Dollars per an num, in advance—no subscription will be taken for less than a year. Advertisements will be inserted at One Dollar per square of twelve lines for the first inser tion, and Seventy-five Cents for each subsequent one legal Advertisements will be inserted at the usual rates. Job Printing of every description will be executed with neatness and despatch. M. M. CALDEK. July 10, 1813. TIIE PETERSBURG REPUBLICAN. Believing the present to be n crisis too important to (he interests of the Democratic party to allow any press devoted to its cause to sink for want ts support, the subscriber has, at the instance of many friends, con sented to assume the editorial guidance of the t eters burn Republican. Recognizing in the late temporary defeat of D. tnoc raey the necessity of recurrence tor future success to the fundamental principles of .States’ Rights, and their strict application to all Federal issues. The Republi can will neither in itself exhibit laxity of political faith, nor tolerate its indulgence in others, but wtil undevia tincly adhere to the noble principles, as admirably em bodied by one of our distinguished Statesmen— ’Free trade ; low duties; no debt; seperation front Banks ; economy; retrenchment; and strict adherance to the Constitution.” , The successful maintenance] and permanent estab lishment of this w ise and just system of measures must greatly depend on the judicious selection of the Demo cratic candidate for the next Presidency, and believing the amplest guarantee of these important ends to be afforded by the eminent abilities and unsullied faith of JOHN C. CALHOUN, the Republican will advocate his claims to the nomination of the National Conven tion. These claims will be enforced with due respect to the preferences of others, and the cordial support of this press will be given to the Nominee of a Conven tion so assembled as to be general, and so constituted as to give a clear expression to the will of the majority. The Petersburg Republican will, us heretofore, be published three times a week, at Five Dollars per an num, aiwavs payable in advance. The subset.her will assume its control on the third .Monday in June, until which time all communications will be addressed to him (post paid) Richinoi and. WASHINGTON GREENIIOW.

It will he devoted to the spread ot true Democratic princi- Sles and will adopt for its motto the words of the Hon. ohn C. Calhoun “Free Trade ; Low Duties; No Debt; Separation from Banks ; Economy, Retrench ment; and strict adherence to the Constitution;” and will bear aloft his truly Democratic banner. It will al so strongly advocate the limitation of the tenure of the Presidential office to one term —not only in justice to te distinguished public men of the nation, but as more consonant to the genius of our Republican institutions and more conducive to a faithful and independent ad ministration of the Government. As the most direct and effective mode of securing the permanent ascendancy of these cardinal princi ples. the SptcTATOR will zealously urge upon the coun try the claims ol the distinguished Southern States man for the Presidency. In doing this, it will not be unmindful of the integrity and safety of the Republi can Party, and will manifest a proper regard ior the pretensions of the prominent individuals who have been named tor this high trust, and are i den tided with the advancement ot these principles. The Spectator will lie edited by one of the ablest and most experien ced political writers of the day. The terms are three dollars per year, in advance, for a single copy.

The time has arrived, when, it has become neces sary for the Friends of Free Trade to unite in sus taining their cause. The commercial community aud agricultural pop ulation of the country, have been subjected to the operation of an unequal dud unjust Tariff Law. A law, admitted by its framers and advocates, to have been hastily devised and hurriedly acted on, forced through Congress at the close of an extra session, aud adopted by a single casting vote. A law, which makes forced loans front importers, in the way of cash duties, amounting on an average to 30 per cent, of their capital. A law, which by heavily taxing ma terials used in ship building, being equal to 85 per ton, which, on a vessel of 600 tons, amounts to the enormous sum of $3,500 is driving our ships from the foreign carrying trade. Foreign and cheaper built vessels monopolize to a great extent, the business which was formerly done by our ships. The friends of Free Trade, contend that justice to the Merchants, Ship Builders, and Ship Owners, and to the Farmers of the country, demands an immedi ate modification of this oppressive Tariff Law. They contend, that, the Agricultural and Commercial in terests of the United States arc indissolubly united. That, the prosperity and extension of trade and com merce, necessarily promotes the extension and pros perity of agriculture. They believe the power granted to Congress by the Constitution, to regulate commerce, was not in tended to be used for its destruction. They believe it bad policy for the government, in lime of profound peace, under pretence of passing a revenue bill, to pass a bill destroying revenue, and then borrow money with which to carry on the gov ernment, and at the same time laying the foundation of a large public debt. They believe a crisis has been reached in the af fairs of the country, when these measures must be met, resisted and overcome, by the united aud effi cient action of the friends of free trade. From the signs of the times, should the. advocates of cssmnercial restriction and unequal taxation, suc ceed in electing their candidate for the Presidency, the disastrous result will be, that we shall have the severe grievances of which we justly complain, fas tened upon us as the permanent policy of the coun try. To avoid an event fraught with such evil conse quences, it behooves us to unite with others in the support of a Free Trade Candidate for the Presiden cy. The time for action is short. In a few more months, an individual may be selected, as President, whose opinions, power and influence, might be fear fully exerted against us. Or one, whose views, feel ings and opinions coincide with our own. Something should be done. At the present time, the Press ul this city occupies a position unfavorable to the success of our cause. The necessity for a new paper is evident, from die fact that at present, none of the papers of this city advocate to the full extent, and with sufficient energy and zeal, the prin ciples for which w e contend. A paper of this character seems at the present juncture indispensable. It should be in its ends and aims, essentially a Free Trade paper; and at the same time, advocate the claims to office, us men in whose undisguised principles, we might place tlic most in plicit confidence. A Committee of Free Trade Gentlemen, have been organized to solicit subscriptions from persons disposed to contribute means, towards starting in this city, as soon as practicable, anew Comerciul aud Free Trade paper, with the intention, at the same time of lending its honest and fair support for the Presidency, to the candidate v hose opinions are well known to be favorable to a liberal Commercial policy. Writers of acknowledged a ility, zeal and indus try, will have charge of the Editorial columns. Talents of the highest order will be engaged to take charge of the respective Departments of the paper. The state of the Money Market, with Reports of Banks, Incorporated Joint Stock Companies, Procee dings of Congress, and of State Legislatures, in re lation to all financial affairs, w ith regular tallies of Exchange Domestic and Foreign, combined with general groupings of all monetary movements taking place iu all parts of the civilized world, will form a permanent feature of the paper. Another department of the paper will be dcvjted to information concerning the state of the principal Markets of die world for Agricultural products. Cor respondence will also be established with the farm ing and planting districts of the interior, in order to obtain the latest news of the extent and prospects of the growing crops. Your aid in promoting the objects expressed in the strove circular, is respectfully solicited, with that of your lriends, which can be remitted by mail, in the way of subscribers, or other contribution*, to the address of I. F. Hutton, 47 1-2 Wall street, or tu E. B. Hart, 18 Wall street, New York. PROPOSALS.—It is proposed to publish a paper that in connection with rite objects above expressed, shall also support the claims of the Hon. JOHN C. CALHOUN, lor the Presidency of the United States, subject to the decision of a National Convention us Delegates, sent directly from the People. A Daily and Weekly paper, will be issued, of the full ordinary size, printed on good paper and with en tire new type.
