WHITE WHEATS.
White C-oute Flint.
The White Soule Flint resembles the Red
Soule Flint so closely in every particular,
color, alone excepted, that it is difficult to
distinguish them ; so that the description I
have given of the Red Soule will suffice for
that of the white nlso. The white Soule ri
pens about a week earlier than the white
Flint, and thereby escapes the rust better,
and on good soil and under good tillage it
not unfrcqucntly outyields the white Geti-
ncsse Flint from five to ten bushels the acre.
And hence it is, in many of our northern lo
calities, coming rapidly into favor ami su
perceding the Flint. The white Soule is
sown at the rate of two bushels t<- the acre,
grows well, ripens early, and produces a
plump nnd handsome grain which weighs
fully sixty pounds to the bushel. But it
shells out easily, and being but slightly
covered with chaff, will not stand the rain
or wet weather so well as the Flint, and
therefore must be harvested in season nnd

Is the white Soule a smooth orbeardy head
ed variety ? Who will tell ns ?
Canada Flint or Hutchinson
The Canada Flint, so called because intro
duced from Canada, is a hardy winter vari
ety of wheat with a rough or beardy head.
It is generally called the Hutchinson wheat,
but for what reason I cannot say, and some
times the ..Dwarf Flint,” because of the
smallness of its grains compared with thoso
of the White nr Genesee Flint, aud some
times also the -white bearded Hutchinson
Flint.” It escapes the ravages of the Hes
sian fly and weevil pretty well, yields well,
and produces a short and plump white grain
which weighs sixty four pounds to thc bush
el and makes good flour. But it requires
one-fourth more of seed to the acre than the
Genesee Flint, ns.it does not till as well as
that variety, and must, like the Souics, be
cut early, before it is fully ripe, on account
of its liability to shell out as soon as ripe —
which has caused it to lose its popularity to
some extent, and give way in many places
to the Genessee Flint, the Soules and Blue
Stems Iu some parts of New York, how
ever, it is sti.l preferred to all other varie
ties.. and continues to maintain it3 excel
lence and popularity under proper manage
ment. (See Ag. Rep. 1818, p 4l9 ; 1819,
p, 104, 110, 184 . 204; 1850, p. 281. 40G,

332:1853, p 149.
Golden Chnfor Straw.
The Golden Chaff or Straw, so called from
the golden color of its chaff and straw when
ripe, is also a bearded winter variety. It
stands the winter well and escapes the Hes
sian fly belter than most kinds, yields large
ly to tbe acre; and produces a ioug, plump
and beautiful yellowish white grain, which
weighs from sixty two to sixty five pounds
to thc bushel, and makes excellent flour.—
It ripens about a week earlier than the Red
and White and Velvet Chaffs, and also a few
days earlier than the Blue Stem, nnd iu
some localities earlier than the Mediterran
e«n. And hence it is preferred in some uf
the southern States to' the Red and White
May wheats, and dots equally as well in
the coldest northern States, but is also de
dining in productiveness in those regions
where it has long been cultivated. And in
some regions it is said to ripen later than
most other kinds, nnd so become liable to
rust. (See Agricultural Reports )
White Mediterranean.
The White Mediterranean is a smooth or
bald headed variety, with large aud plump
white grains, which weigh from sixty four
to sixty live pounds to the bushel, and makes
a white and excellent flour It bears late

variety. It has a remarkably strong and
vigorous stem or straw, and long, smooth,
and beautiful chnffed heads, filled with very

white nnd very thin skinned grains uf wheat.
of very superior quality, which weigh
pounds to the bushel, and make a quite su
perior flour- It grows well upon any soil,
and luxuriantly cn soils but of medium
quality, nnd ripens as early as the lted
Mediterranean, and generally escapes the
rust, smut and Hessian fly, nnd yields large
ly. even five or six bushels more to the acre,
at times, than the Mediterranean does upon
the same soil, side by side, and under the
same culture, and thus possesses all the ad-
vnntagrs fmind in the Mediterranean wheat,
in addition to its whiteness and greater
hardiness anil productiveness. And hence
it has become a great favorite with those
who have tried it, for it has been tiied.with
equ .l success in Maryland and Virginia,
and in l’cnnsylvanin, Ohio aud Michigan,
and its growers represent it as superior iu
every respect to all other varieties of wheat
yet known iu our country, nnd that it hns
even improved since its introduction amoDg

China or Chinese.
The China or Chinese, so called because-
introduced here from the North of China, is
a yellow chaffed and heavily bearded winter
v.-.rietv. It has a long and strong stein or
Stalk, and large head from six to seven inch
es long, and produces a most beautiful white
grain, whose weight per bashel I am anable

Salt River Rail Road.
The time has arrived when such a Rail
road is demanded, and how shall the ncces-
sa:y means be raised for its construction, is
the question.
It is generally undorstiod that there will
be a bill introduced in our next legislature,
to satisfy the claim of 25 cents in favor of
Ben Hill. Now, I think it best to satisfy
thc aforesaid claim, in this wise:- Instead
of'legislative coactmcnt, substitute private
donations. 1 am willing to give one button,
and if it he necessary, will add a one cent
stamp, to mt' part o f the contribution. By
this method, much expense would he saved
to the enuniry, an! Ben Hill fully and
doubly indemnified.
A committee of 25 should be appointed to
dispose ol the articles of value—thc proceeds

guishment of the aforesaid claim, and the

so constructed as to be on a descending
grade, in order that the cars running there
on might, when they start on the evenin'*

The road, by these meats, could very easily
be completed by this time, and the State at
large greatly beuetitted— ns n a: but Kuow
Nulh.ngs would be allowed by the laws of
the land, to travel on Salt River Railroad.
The immigration to said city would then be
greatly facilitated, inasmuch ns the Editors
ot the Augusta Chronicle, nnd Atlanta A-
mericen will, then selves, fully occupy Salt
River with their rough barques steering up
therein, morosely, at a dull rate, and ptob-
nbly may not reach the said city till I860.
As the passage on the Salt River Railroad
would, of course, be free, and no trust or
confidence would be r«£oued Tby'ijie Super

The Polish or Poland, so called because
introduced here from Poland, is also a
smooth or bald beaded winter variety. It
has a very bard, coarse, tall and strong stem
or stalk, capable, it is supposed, of resisting
the inroads of the Hessian fly, and makes a
splendid appearance in growing, somewhat
resembling broom corn when it first appears
above ground. It yields largely to the acre
and produces very large heads, filled with
very large white grains. It has been fully
tried ia Maine, Maryland and Virginia, and
with uniform success. It stands the north
ern winters well, and. what is still better,
produces finely on our upland and thin, poor
soils. But it ripens rather later than is de
sirable, and this, in connection with its ex
ceeding rank growth of straw and blad».
renders it more liable to rnst than it otbt r
wise would be. And some in those regit-t,"
still give Pennsylvania Bine Stem the pre
ference, notwithstanding the hitherto fair
success of the Poland variety. (See Agri

Mr. Hill’s disiegard for truth, long since
made deplo. ably manifest, is now aggrava
ted by his wanton violation ot decency.
•iVe venturi the assertion that never before,
io the history of party politics in this State,
has any pub'ic man give such exhibitions,
on the stump, of shntueless disregard of thc
claims of truth, justice, and self respect.—
To give an instance, he seizes upon the fact
of an overcharge of a quarter of a dollar,
by an ignorant train band, temporarily in
command of a train, to establish his vague
and irresponsible insinuations of dishonesty
in the management of tne State Road. This
man makes a showing that should overwhelm
Mr. Hill with shame, as the calomniator of
a poor fellow, who has nothing bnt a.good
name to depend upon. But for tnid like
Hill's, that ia satiefied any time with spe
cious pretexts and plansibi I i ties, let the truth
be as it may,this cliarg^of his, against the
conductor’s honesty, is proof as much M be
wants, to prove the entire road isssrttiisi n
corrupt, and to be argument enough why he
should be Governor, aud Fillmore th* next
President. Th« logic is just about as close
and consequential as any we ever got fric
the gentleman. Elated by this apparent
of officinl delinquency, hu pashas am th* i

rity ot the men having th* interest of fee
oid in charge, and because a grnen hand.
