Tho constitutional Union parly of Georgia based upon the Into adjustment of tho teirltorinl nnd slavery questions by Con gress, was organized nt Mjlltdgcvillo du ing thosossion of the Stato Convention, nnd delegates appointed to attend n grand Union meeting proposed to he hold at Washington City on tho 22d day of February next. The time has nrrived when the old party lines should bo totally obliterated, both at the North and the South, tho Fast and the West, and that every citizen of this widely extended country favorable to tho late com promise, no mailer what mny, in other res pects, Imvo been his political party opinions or relations, should rally Under ono common banner to tho rescuo of tho iinporiieJ Union. Upon this itllor let ovory one who lores llw union and is willing to perpetuate it upon tho terms of tho compromise, lay down his old party prejudices or predilections, hot the name of Whig nnd Democrat be totally forgotten whilst tho Union is in danger. I,at all other issues sleep whilst tho city is in danger of n band of incendiaries, and let the common cnorgics he directed to the suppres sion of the common foe. Let a great NA TIONAL UNION PARTY be formed with and triumphantly rebuked hy tho stern, on- common counsels nnd coucort of action. bending integrity, and fearless conduct of freemen. The lesson that has been taught should be moro fully impressed upon the minds of those who, nwliile hack, snw no imaginable virtue in any friend of the gov ernment, no good quality in nny friend of the Union. There is n feeling abroad which for a time was scarcely believed to exist. The people of this country could not at first realize the fact that there existed in three or fom of the Southern. Stales n deliberate purpose nnd syslema'ic plan to dissolve tho Union. Slow ly, however, but'surely this idea impressed itself on the public mind, nnd awakened tho _ attention of tlic people Ion sense of their danger. At first a ciyil man scarcely dared to breathe n doubt of the propriety of the unholy effotl. The fire-eaters were noisy, insolent, overbearing and denunciatory, nnd it seemed that in the confusion all wns lost. But reason and reflection were yet left, and the dictates of a sound 1 judgement, enlighten ed by an excited nnd inquisitive spirit, final ly triumphed.

Sandy soils can never bo proper ly cultivated without its aid, ns there is re quisite n degree of compression vlhich no other implement known in modern husband ry will confer. Tho extreme lightness and- excessive porosity of such .lands, while it rondors them light nnd easy to work, pro vents tho rolonlion of moisture, without,! liberal nnd cqunblo supply of which, in soil, however affluent in humus, or the elements of vbgitahlo unli-itioo r cnn be mnilo to exert its maximum force. Mniraro, applied io such soils, becomes in dry seasons, hut little hotter than so much wood j it cannot ferment, but dries up, nnd lies entirely inactive, an injury rnthor than a benefit to the soil. The consolidating action of tho roller, therefore, is indispensably necessary to induco fermen tation, and produco Hint compactness in the arrangements of its constituent particles, which onnhlcs tho roots to assume nnd pre serve a strong nnd reliable hold lor tho main tenance ot tlio pcctiiinr position nnturc hns assigned, nnd tho sccuromont nnd appropria tion of thoir specific food.
