[From ihe So. fT*liivwtor.
ami (ouiuicrrial
Nannrvv.
To a recent number of the Cultivator
wo took the position that a farmer
could not, in the long run, increase the
fertility of his farm by the use of home
made manure alone—that in fact, if he
t*.old any of the products of t is farm,
his land w< n!d inevitably decrease id
fertility, unless fertilizing substances
were imported either in form of ma-
Buro itself, or of grain, hay, &e , which
could bo turned into manure by his
stock. As an illustration, we cited the
case of a man puling hirnself up by
his boots, if you ivill givj him a “pul
ley”—in other words, if you give him
something outside of himself , Give a
man the most thorough knowledge ol
tbo laws of force and motion—give
h : m thorough control rs bis muscles,
still be cannot lift himself by his boots
without a real material pulley’, and a
fixed support for it. YVe grant that
the farmer’s land cr.n lift itself, if he
will gve it a good pulley of guano,
phosphates, lime, po*a-h, &e., and in
addition, gear that pulley on the s long
frame-work of “science, industry and
economy.’' Both reasoning and facts
sustain the proposition we have Laid
down If the elements of the soil are
carried off in the cr ps sold, how can
farm yard manure, which is, itself,
made up of materials derived from the
soil, replace them ? Those elements
of crops derived from the atinorphere,
may be restored by turning it, green
crops and by farm yard manure, but
bow is the Ues of potash, lime, phos
phoric acid, &o , to be made good 1 —
We find the caso so well put up by
Prof. Liebig, in h>s work, the Natural
Laws of Husbandry , published in 1863,
we quote at some length.
“If, after the foregoing statements,
the condition of the cultivated land in
Europe, and the dec'ine towards which
agriculture is tending by the prevail
ing system of farm-yard manuring,
should still be a matter of doubt to
many persons unacquainted wiih the
natural sciences, and w ho trust only to
definite numbers as palpable facts, tbit
doubt may, perhaps, be removed bv
statistical data on the corn j roduce of
the land in different piar sos Germany
which bare been collected by ordei of
the Government.
For a corre t appreciation of the
importance of these datta in the mat
ter, it is necessary, in thefiist place,
to understand clearly what i* meant
by an ‘average crop. By this term is
designated the average produce, ex
pressed in numbers, or a field of fields
or all the fields of a district or country
The figure which represents it is found
by adding together all the produce of
all the fields, f r a number of years,
and dividing the sum total by the lat
ter. There ia accordingly a special
average produce ot every district, by
which the next yoar’s crop ia judged.
Thus we talk of a full, or a half, or a
tbree-quar:cr average, as the produce
happens to come up to thp ca culated
average, or fall one-half or one quar
ter below it.
The question as to the actual condi
tion of our corn fields may, therefore,
be put thus : Has there been any
change in the figure whicn, at any pre
vious period, expressed the average
produce of our land, and in what
sebse? Is that figure higher now, than
formerly, cr has it remained th* same
or fallen ? If the figure is higher, this
is, of course, a sign of an improved
condition of tho land ; if it remains the
same, tho condition has undergone no
change; and it i: is lower, there can be
no doubt that the condition, of the
land in that district, has declined.
I sehet for my purpose the statisti
cal data of the produce of the Hessian
lthine district, one of the most fertile
provinces of the Grand Duchy of
Hess*, with on excellent wheat soil
and inhabited by a most industrious
and generally well educated popula
tion.
These data embrace a period of fif
teen years, from 1833 to 1847; they
refer accordingly to the time when gu
ano was not yet used as manure in
Germany The use of bone-earth was %
at that time, also, still very limited,
nbardly worth taking in'o account
produce of eleven grains of whr-at
to every two grains sown, of five and
a half accordingly, was held te be an
average crop for the Ilessian Rhine
district:
Takiog the figure 1 to express an
average crop, the amount of produce
reaped iu the Rhine district of Ilesse
was:
]833. 1634. 1636. 1836. 1837. 1618. 1639.
0.63 0.78 0.68 0.72 088 073 061
J 6» 1«t 1842 1843 1844 1845 1646 1647
1.16 0.40 0.90 0.74 1.02 0.63 075 0.88
which gives a mean for the fifteen
years, of 0.79 of the former average.
The productiveness of the school land
in tin Rhine duirwt has, therefore, de
clined somewhat mors than emt fifth. ’
The remark of Mr Gift, that “the
lands of Prussia are to-day more pro
ductive than they were in the days o,
Frederick II ” may be entirely true,
(wo have not the st atistics on that
poin';) but it most Iwj borne in mind
that guano ard bone are both largely
used in that country now, and have
been for many years As far back at
-1850, Saxony purchased in one year
3 000,000 lbs. guano.
Stay Law.—The Legislature has
passed a bill staying the collection of
all debts, until action is taken by that
body on the homestead and relief
laws.
A most extraordinary sen mons'er
n regular ring, streaked and striped
devil fish, was captured in the harbor
of Charleston last v eek, by some col
ored fishermen, near the wreck of the
gunboat Housatonic. One of the men
felt a bite and thought he wou’d play
his fi«h awhile and then draw it in ; hut
to his terror and dismay, mid that of
his I rother fbhermen, a huge monster,
such as they had never before seen,
leaped into the boa*., and was so eav
ugo that they were compelled t > kill it
in self defence. It was nine feet four
inches in length, and five feet ten inch
es in breadth; bad a square head,
with large square eyes, and w as spot
ted on the back, with a white belly.

To a young mao aw*y from home,
friendless and forlorn in a great city,
the hours of peril aro those between sun
set and bed time ; for the moon and stars
see more in a single hour than tho sun
in a whole day’s circuit The poet’s
vision of evening are all eompact of ten
der and soothing images. It brings
the wanderer to his home, aho child to
its mother’s arms, the ox to bis itall,
and the weary laborer to his rest. But
to the tender hearted youth who is
thrown upon the rocks of a pitiless city,
and ‘homeless among a thousind homes,’
the approach of evening brings with it
an aching sense of loneliness and deso
lation, which c m s down on the spirit
like darkness upon the earth. In th's
mood, his best impulses become a snare
to him, and be is led astray because he
is social, affectionate, sympathetic and
warmhearted. If there be a young
mar thus circumstanced within the
sound of my voice let me say to him
that books are the friends of the friend
less, and that aLbrary is the home of
the homeless. A tasle for-reading will
always carry yon to converse with those
who will i:s ruct you by their wisdom
and charm you by their wit, who sooth
yon when fre'ted, refresh you when
weary, counsel y:u wheD perplexed, and
sympathize wi.b you at all times. Evil
spiri's, id the middle ages, were exer
eised and driven away by bed, book
and candle—you want but two of those
agpnts, tho book and the cand’e.
