ATJGHJSTA. Q-A.
SUNDAY MORNING, FEB. 28,1869
BONES.
Bones have been long used in England as
a fertilizer. Old or new, dry bones or green
—with larger or smaller proportion of or
ganic matter—broken into various sized
lumps, pulverized, or ground into flour and
spread over the surface, or turned under it,
they have proved more or less valuable to
all soils. The more comminuted the par
ticles, the quicker will be their action. The
larger pieces, while continuously yielding a
portion of their virture, decompose slowly,
and postpone, of course, the period of their
exhaustion. This property, belonging also
to humus, and some other substances, gave
rise, no doubt, to the high sounding term of
permanent mauure. A quality of eminent
worth, by no means to be derided, but it
need not be extravagantly lauded in con
trast with, and in disparlgeraent of, its op
posite. Both are essential to progressive
agriculture. The y one brings speedy and
gratifying returns for well directed labor—
the other establishes an enduring improve
ment of the land. Their union, with power
ful elements in concentrated form, would
constitute a perfect fertilizer. The efforts
in search of it, have been as arduous and
unremitted as for the philosopher’s stone, in
the days of alchemy. While the latter
sprangjfrom ignoble motives, and proved a
delusion, this foreshadowed absolutely by
science, must inevitably be discovered.
A piece of laud in Sweden had given a
long succession of wheat crops without
manure, when Berzelius discovered on it
many fragments of bones, which suggested
that the locality had been an ancient battle
field. Bones, long buried, supposed to have
been preserved from the ante-deluvian era,
were found, on analysis, to contain some
animal as well as mineral constituents;
proving how slow with them is the natural
process of putrefaction and decay. Being
so sparingly destructible by the ordinary
action of the elements, they may be gather
ed at leisure and be treated for agricultural
purposes altogether, at one’s convenience,
with the certainty of deriving from them
good results. Their components were first
made known by Hetchell about seventy
years ago. Subsequently Berzelius gave
the following quantitative analysis of the
bones of man and pf the ox : «
100 parts of human bones contain
Phosphate of lime 61.04
Flerate of lime '••• 2.00
Carbonate of lime 11.30
Phosphate of magnesia 1 16
Soda and common salt 1.20
Auimal matter 33.30
Os the ox,
Phosphate of lime.... 55.35
Flerate of lime 2.00
Carbonate of lime 3.85
Phosphate of magnesia 2.05
Soda and common salt 3.45
Auimal matter 33.30
The proportions are not constant in dif
ferent bones of the same animal, nor of
similar bones of different animals of the
same species. The inorganic matter is less
In the yonng than in the full grown. There
are more phosphates in the ox than in man.
The carbonate of lime is less in carniverous
—its ratio between .the sheep
compared with their phosphates,
24.1 to 2.0. ;lu.‘some bones there
traces of potash and Iron. _
important ingredients are Life
WHuite of lime arid the animal sub-
JRance. It has been a vexed question
among the chemists, which of these exerted
the beneficial influence on soils, usually fol
lowing the application of bones. Sfren
oel and Liebig, of the highest authority,
advocate the former, the phosphate, and
deny that an Y s erv * ce is rendered by the
latter. Petzholdt considers it abso
lutely hurtful. Johnston and others com
bat the opinion, and urge th* advan
tages derived from both. It appears en
tirely reasonable to admit the good effects
of the gelatine. Its composition is iden
tical with that of skin, aud nearly the
same with wool, hair and horn, contaiu
iug about seventeen per cent, of nitrogen,
and all admirable fertilizers when compost
ed or otiierwise decomposed. The animal
parts contain ten times more ammonia, by
weight, and sixty-six times more phosphate,
than cow manure.
Bones are difficult of solution—the phos
phate especially—even when grouud into
flour. When calcined, there remains the
earth of bones, chiefly a phosphate, ot
about half and half lime and phosphatic
acid, which is partially soluble by the or
ganic acids of the soil, and thus fluds its
way ii)to the roots of plants.
They have been applied to soil in various
modes—in drills, and broadcast over the
land, covered and uncovered. A piece of
unmanured ground that yielded ten tons
of turnips, returned twenty-one tons to an
application of over a thousand pounds per
acre of burned bones. In wet seasons they
have produced, unground, as much as
40 per cent, increase over the natural soil.
Iu very dry seasons their action is slight.
The quantity used has varied from a few
bushels to seventy bushels per acre—from
a few hundred pounds to two and a half
tous. The effect has been shown of a single
application from twenty to sixty years.
When bones are treated with sulphuric
acid, a portion of the lime is abstracted,
forming sulphate of lime, or gypsum, and
leaving an excess of phosphoric acid, which
constitutes w iuii its lime base, the biphos
phate of lime, or the superphosphate, readi
ly soluable in water, and the valuable and
popular fertilizer of ;the present day.
The Darien Oanal.
THE TOLL GATE OF TWO HEMISPHERES —
WHAT THE ENTERPRISE WILE SAVE TO
THE COMMERCE OF THE WORLD.
The Boston Post , in its comments upon
Mr. Cushing’s treaty with the Colombian
Government, in reference to the Darien ship
canal, says:
The statistics of commerce themselves
supply the safest suggestions respecting the
best mode of accomplishing this grandest
enterprise of modern days. It has been es
timated that the annual value of a ship
canal across the Isthmus would be fully
thirty-five million of dollars to the United
States alone ; that to Prance it would be a
saving of more than two millions ; to Eng
land of nearly ten ; and to the rest of the
world about a million and a half—making
in all an advantage of about fifty millions
in money per year. This Includes the rav
ings to commerce in every way—time,
wages, outfits, wear and tear, insurance and
interest. Admiral Davis fully indorsed
this statement in the report he rendered on
a ship canal in 1866. Another method
would be to make an estimate by the
amount of our tonnage, both foreign and
domestic, and reckon up what would be
the advantage on that basis. Cargoes
would not, o' course, be included in the
statement. The sum total of the tonnage
of the U nited States in 1861 was 5,539,818
tons. Dividing it equally between foreign
and domestic, as was very nearly the fact,
it is estimated that, of the two and three-
quarter million tons of foreign tonnage,
two millions would certainly pass through
this commercial conduit across the Isth
mus. Putting the value of the vessels,
without their cargoes, at a hundred mil
lions in gold, and reckoning a saving of
ninety days in every year on shortened
voyages, we secure a saving in interest of
a million and three-quarters in gold, at
seven per centum.
We see, then, some fraction of the profit
and power which is to fall into our hands if
we follow out the line drawn by these sug
gestions. It will not do for us to embark
in such an enterprise in the niggardly spirit
of mere money-makers. The advantage i.f
to be for the commerce of the world. The
vessels of all nations are to pour their
streams of commerce through this vital
artery. Wc must entertain only broad
ideas in entering upon its accomplishment.
Oar own advantage will be best secured as
we are liberal in our own views of the
benefit to other nations. We should rather
regard ourselves as the agent of tRe two
opposite quarters of the globe, becoming
the factor, the carrier and the commission
merchant of both. The success of General
Cushing’s mission revives all the specula
tions of the past concerning this revolution
in the tides of the world’s commerce, and
excites hopes which will only prove too
well based when this noble plan shall have
been begun and pushed forward to comple
tion. We stand exactly in the great com
mercial highways; and we are more than
blind and deaf if we refuse to go forward
in consummating that comprehensive plan
of commercial power and prosperity which
has for its three great pillars, a trans-conti
nental railway system, the cutting of a ship
canal through the Isthmus, and the estab-.
mist of a safe and capacious naval station
in the West Indies. ,
Newspaper Meddling With Women’s Af
fairs.
An aggrieved feminine takes the editors
of the Richmond Enquirer to task'for im
pertinent intermeddling with matters that
peculiarly concern the ladies. There may
be a little irony in what she says, aud, in
fact, the author may not be wtolly unac
customed to boots and trowsers; yet he, or
she, as the case may be, fires a broadside,
and we give it as a warning tosueh of out
brethren as feel a desire for oiending in a
similar way:
Richmond, February 22,1809.
Messrs. Editors : You tall a great deal
in your venerable paper about the “ tradi
tions” of Virginia, and I big leave to re
mind you that one of those traditions is
that the columns of a newspaper is not a
fit place to discuss the practices of Virginia
women. Under its present control the En
quirer is a great deal more exercised about
the women of Virginia than we are about
it. Don’t you think able articles on poli
tics, financial questions and the like, would
be far more profitable to your readers than
your twaddle about Valenciennes lace and
our female dancing, about which you only
show your ignorance ?
We have fully considered this question,
and as we are conscious of innocence in ad
mitting a gentleman’s arm around our
waist where there is no concealment, it Is
no concern of soured and antediluvian bach
elors whether it is proper or not.
You admit that the dance is “ beautiful;”
and that is an answer to all your objec
tions. As to yonr fine sentiments about
« womanhood,” and Raphael’s “Madonnas,”
the present generation of Virginia women
have the good sense not to aspire to be an
gels ; we are only women —aud some of us
very charming women, at that. Your crit
icisms would all do very well for the prayer
meetings at the First Baptist Church ; but
they excite only amusement among those
of us who attend the delightful “ hops ” at
the Spots wood.
I write at the instance of many “ girls.”
who justly felt indighant at your imperti
nent interference in matters entirely out of
your province. Do you attend to the
“ Committee of Nine,” and leave the do
main of pleasure and the arts of social life
to those who have always ruled them, and
who iutend not to abdicate to a dry old
political paper.
Men can goto the Can-Can, and women
are not to enjoy ay^pudHwtf. ~
zens of seen at that
horrid place, ; > " >r’rVbtlt T)u paper
yoa presume to ■eVjjjr-;" Let me advise
you to attend. ami we wilt
Yhere was a JFidiculuus urticw to juul
papeV some iiifie ago about our extrava
gance in dress ; I have only to remark that
we do not smoke and we do not drink, and
if statistics can be trusted, what you are
pleased to denominate the “nobler” sex,
spend about as much money as ours. We
marry you to be supported, and if you can’t
support us, yoir had not better broach that
subject. You want us to look well; and
how can we look well without dressing?
You published a piece the other day
about a Mrs. Raiser who had cut her hus
band’s throat, and then remarked that “ this
thing would have to be stopped,” as if wo
men were in the habit of cutting their hus
band’s throats.
I am daily anticipating an article in the
Enquirer & Examiner on Painting. 1 sup
pose you think that un-Virginian. I expect
our grandmothers were as attentive to
their getting up as we are; and I know our
grandfathers had much less to say about
it than the young American moralists of
the present day.
I remain, very respectfully, yours,
Caroline.
Horace Greeley to the New York News
Boys.
Hon. Horace Greeley, editor of the New
York Tribune, delivered an address recently
to the New York newsboys. The following
abstract of it contains much wholesome
advice:
As the result of many years’ experience
he believed a man should not be poor all
his life, and unless poverty was the result
of misfortune, it was unjustifiable. By
riches he meant enough to satisfy all proper
wants and guard against contingencies.
He believed every boy before him could be
rich and ought to be rich. He cited John
Jacob Astor, who founded the great Astor
Library, as an example of a poor boy who
had by industry and honesty succeeded iu
life, it was honesty and industry, said Mr.
Greeley, that gave Astor his success, and it
is the patient, plodding, careful, industrious
men that succeed. Stephen Girard, who by
his great wealth left a noble college to the
country, was another example of industry
and perseverance. He advised the boys to
begin by saving ten cents, and adding as
often as’ possible, and the boy whoshould
save $ 100 by the time he was 21 years oro'
would pretty surely be a rich man. He
told the boys men got rich by doing right,
and not by doing wrong. Men who sold
rum or kept gambling houses didn’t often
get rich, and none of them were ever able to
found a library like Mr. Astor, or endow a
college like Girard. He believed one thing
essential in getting rich was to be an honest
man. The most of the men who had become
rich since he had been in New York were
honest. Ail the thieves in New York had
never acquired as much wealth as John
Jacob Astor. Evil causes did not lead to
wealth, although they might seem to do so.
Another thing necessary in order to get
rich was to be temperate. He had known
many men with great •abilities and riue
prospects to fail because of intemperance.—
If they resolve to oe rich they must stop
drinking, or if they had not commenced,
they must not begin. They ought also to
resolve to be industrious, and when resolv
ed on that, make up their minds to learn a
trade. Mr. Greeley spoke at length on the
evils of being without a trade, and related
his own experience and his satisfaction at
having followed out an impulse which he
formed at ten years of age, to be a printer.
He would have every boy before him either
learn a trade or become a farmer. He com
menced farming as a healthy and honorable
employment, saying that if he could have
his life to live over again he would be a
farmer. He concluded by speaking of the
great opportunities afforded in this coun
try for young men, and especially for far
mers, under the homestead law and, urged
the boys to resolve to embrace these oppor
tunities, and while they sought to live in
accordance with the moral teachings they
received,’to gain riches and honor, and true
manhood.
A Washington letter says : An accomplished,
educated colored man, employee of the House
of Representatives, says: “ I shall take my
wife and daughters to the first Grant reception
at the White House, and the question to be set
tled is whether these two opposite social ingre
dieats will chemically mix.”
[For the Conatitationatiat.
Messrs. Editors : On a visit to Charleston,
where I have uot been since the Winter of 1867,
1 was agreeably impressed with the decided
improvement in the appearance of the city.
Every body seemed more hopeful. Amongst the
drygoods houses, the grocers and the retail
stores, new life was apparent and the hotels
were full of strange faces as well as those we
were wont to meet of old.
Amongst other marks of revival we noticed
the erection of new and extensive buildings for
the manufacture of fertilizers the famous
deposit of phosphates iu the neighborhood of
the city. It was our good fortune to meet
with friends who took us to ths mines of
the Waudo Company, about one afd ajiali
hours ride trom Charleston, and rtfh
surprised to see how extensively this corn--,
pany were digging. They have a large force ,

The situation is charming—the deposit very
rich and valuable. •
We were also pleased, upon visiting their

The Glorious West.
SHOCKING CONDITION OF THE AMERICAN BAR
BARIANS OF THE PLAINS.
The following amusing hurlesques of the
style of journalism prevalent in the far West
were copied recently into au English paper,
with severe comments upon the shocking con
dition of the American barbarians of the
Plains :
“ A little bit of romance has just transpired
lo relieve the monotony of onr metropolitan
life. Old Sam Ohoggins, whom the editor of
this paper lias so often publicly thrashed, has
returned from Mud Springs with a young wile,
lie is said to be very fond ol her, and the way
he came to get her was this : St me time ago we
courted her, bat finding she was on the make,
threw her off alter shooting her brother and
two cousins. She vowed revenge, aud promis
ed to marry any man who “would horsewhip us.
This Sam agreed to undertake, and she married
him on that promise. We shall call on Sam to
morrow with our new shot-gun, and present
our congratulations in the usual form.”

“ A stranger wearing a stovepipe hat and a
botled shirt arrived in town yesterday, and put
tip at the Nugget House. The boys are having
a good lime with that, hat this morning. The
funeral will take place at 3 o’clock. Dog
Rauclie is unhealthy lor swells.”
[ Dog Ranclie Weekly Howl.
“ A painful accident occurred in Frog Gulch
yesterday, which has cast a wet blanket of
gloom over a hitherto joyous, whisky-loving
community. Dave Spigger—or, as tie was fa
miliarly called, Murderer Dave—got drunk at
his usual hour yesterday, and, as is his custom,
took down his gun, and started after the fellow
who went home with his girl the night before.
He found him at breakfast witli bis wife and
thirteen children. After killing them, he start
ed out to return, but being weary stumbled
and broke his leg. Dr. Bill found him in that
condition, and, having no wagon at band to
convey him to town, shot him to put him out
of the misery. Dave was dearly loved by all
who knew him, and his loss is a Democratic
gain. He never disagreed with any but Demo
crats, and would have materially reduced the
vote of that party had he not been so untimely
cut off.” Siskiyou Knock-Down.

Religious Worship in a Theatre, and
the Preacher Hissed.—A Washington cor
respondent writes of the religious observances
on the 22d, and says :
The National Theatre to-night was turned
into a place of worship. Instead of the Can
can, with its immoral suggestions, which had
possession of the boards the other six nights of
the week, there was a highly respectable and
pious audience to listen to a discourse from
the Rev. Wm. H. Sharman, on “ The New Re
formation.” Every seat in the theatre was oc
cupied, and the services went on very smooth
ly, until a portiou of the discourse, where the
preacher alluded to the “ man who had his
trunk packed for Tennessee”—au allusion
to President Johnson—which was received
by hisses by the audience. The preacher,
however, instead of taking this as a hint, be
came quite excised, quit exclaimed that he, for
one, wanted to enter his solemn protest
against the indiscriminate use of the pardoning
power, as exhibited in the ease of Dempsey,
yesterday, who was relieved from sentence by
President Johnson, although Judge Fisher had
declared he had been over-lenient. This led to
quite a scene. More than half the audience
stood tip and hissed for some minutes, after
which they left the theatre, and the preacher
was allowed to continue his*discourse. Mr.
Sharman is an F.iiglish preacher, and the au
dience were more incensed on that account, re
marking that the thing would have been bad
enough from a native, but from a foreigner it
was intolerable.
Purim.—Ou yesterday, the 14th day of Adar,
occurred the Jewis Festival of Purjm, which
.the Israelites all over the universe celebrate in
commemoration of the deliverance ot their na
tion by Mordecal, from the plots and plans
formed by the Hainan, the Prime Minister ot
King Ahasuerns. In former years it was eele
haated by the Jews in prayers of thanksgiving
and charities, and by the reading of the Book
of Esther and other appropriate ceremonies at
their synagogues, but in later years, inadditiOQ
to the same, the younger Israelites make mu
tual visits to their friends.
