jIGItECtII/r UK [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. moral lufluenre of Literary Taste. 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. T. W.
