Isaac J Heath, died in Burke co., Ga,
in full prospect of future bliss, Nov. 6th,
1866, in the 65th year of his age.
The larger portion of these years were
devoted to the service of God. His natural
endowments were of high grade and were
improved with an eye to the glory of the
Giver, and the good of souls. He was ap
pointed class-leader of Bethany Church in
1840, which office he filled with peculiar
dignity and acceptability to the end of his
pilgrimage. Though modest and unassum*
ing, yet full of faith and love, he stood firm
at his post under all circumstances. At the
strong solicitations of friends he was induced
to accept office, and for a time serve the
people in a public capacity. But finding
so very little honesty in politics he retired
in disgust, leaving the field to such as could
breathe its unholy atmosphere. An inti
mate acquaintance with Bro. Heath for the
last fifteen years, prepares the writer to say
few men have left a brighter history to pos
terity. Most of his children slept in Jesus
in advance of himself, and in speaking of
his prospects some weeks before his death
he said he was at a loss to decide whether
he preferred to remain with the three in
the flesh or go to those above.
Nancy Heath, wife of Isaac J. Heath,
was taken from earih to Heaven, July 24th,
1866, in the 52nd year of her age.
She too, was a devoted Christian, and was
emphatically a helpmeet with her husband
in bis labor of love. Her leading charac
teristics, were a burning zeal for Christ, de
votion to the M E. Church and a peculiar
neatness in her person and home. Many a
Georgia preacher as he reads this brief
sketch will remember her neat circle with
deep interest, while the mind calls up the
happy resting place of days gone by. The
mind dwells with delight upon the useful
and happy life of this amiable couple, the
brief time the one succeeded the other and
the happy eternity that lies out before them,
and being dead they yet speak in unmis
takable accents of the Power and glory of
Religion. A. B Smith.
Robert 11. Alexander, was born in
Va., 16 Nov , 1820, ami died of consump
tion in Wakulla, Fla., 20th Oct., 1866.
Ho was converted and joined the Church
in and from that time was faithful
till his death. His conversion was gradual,
but it was nevertheless real and satisfactory.
His sufferinos were very and wonder
fully protracted, and yet lie was perfectly
resigned to the will of his Divine Master.
Death came slowly yet surely, hut the man
of God feared not its approach He met
the message with a calm boldness, unusual
in most of the dying. lie lived right and
of course he died right. Win n lie was
almost oone his dear wife wanted to know
if he were alarmed, and he spoke almost
from the oth’r shore, “I am not at all
alarmed.” llis favorite song was, “O sing
to me of Heaven, when 1 am called to die.”
Blessed man, he sings now on the shores of
Glory. May his wife and two children fol
low his example. E. H. Giles.

From the Martian i Farm r, fir De ember.
ROTATION OP CROPS.
Many years ago, Chapfal, the celebrated
French agricultural chemist, laid down five
distinct propositions, in which the effects
produced by consta it cultivation of the soil
were stated very briefly but very clearly
We propose to recapitulate bis points and
to make a running commentary on each of
them as may serve, at least, to arrest atten
tion, and perhaps may prove suggestive to
some of our readers.
A system of c opping which, by a well
devised rotation, shall restore to the soil, by
the use of certain crops, at least a part of
these constituents of which it has been ex
hausted by certain other crops, constitutes
the basis of all good husbandry. Leibig,
who has also written upon the same subject
sometimes wisely and well, and sometimes
fancifully, would compensate for the annual
exhaustion of the soil by the application of
certain special manures to supply the wants
of the particular crop that is to be taken
from it. These measures he imagined might
be so applied as to restore the equilibrium,
aud that by such an application the land
might be steadily kept at the same point of
fertility. Leibig does not say. however, that
such manures would really prove iffeclual;
but rather puts if as a problem, to be solved,
as to whether, instead of a change of crops,
a succession or change of manures “ might
not enable the farmer to grow on each of
his fields that crop which, under the cir
cumstances, might prove most desirable.’’
If sueh,an arrangement as this were prac
ticable, and if, on the Leibig theory, a farm
could be divided off into a certain number
of fields, and each field devoted exclusively,
year after year, to the production of one
particular crop, simply by adding to the soil
of that field the organic aud inorganic sub
stances which each crop each year takes
from the land, the process of farming would
be so simplified as to make it a mere me
chanical operation. A farmer might then
parcel off his land, fix upon this field for
wheat, that for oats, a third for corn, a fourth
lor rye or Darley, and a fifth for pasture or
hay, and having thus devoted each particu
lar field to be used exclusively for the same
crop during his lifetime, might give himself
no further care than to restore to the soil in
the shape of «peeial fertilizers the few pouuds
of potash, lime, soda, and the phosphates
that had been drawn from each acre by the
harvested crop. But unhappily, nature has
something to say in this matter. The soil
demands a change of crops just as a man re
quires a change of food, and a particular
crop to a particular field is nothing more than
the beautiful dream of a theorist.
Chaptal’s propositions are—
-Ist. “ All plants exhaust the soil.”
If Chaptal had said all “cultivated”
plants exhaust the soil, his remarks would
have been entirely correct. When soils are
in their virgin state, or wheie, on soils
thrown out of cultivation, a secondary
growth of woud springs up, the process of
exhaustion is arrested, and the fertilizing
process is at work. The reason for this is,
that the annual decay of vegetables—ou
the prairies, for instance —enriches the soil,
because a portion of the plant food is de
rived from the atmosphere A similar re
sult must follow, though more slowly, where
on once cultivated and partially exhausted
fields anew growth of wood springs up. In
this case, the annual droppings of the leaves
and pine shatters assist in restoring, at least
in some measure, the fertility of the soil,
and certainly prevent any further exhaustion
of it. The value of crops that shade the
ground, in contradistinction to hoed crops,
is by the examples just cited exemplified
and illustrated by nature herself.
2d. “ All plants do not exhaust the sail
equally.”
This fact, the experience or every farmer
has demonstrated. Analysis shows that
100 parts of the ashes of the grain of Indian
corn contain 28 parts of potash, 18 parts of
magnesia, and 53 parts of phosphoric acid —
and also that 100 parts of the ashes of the
statics and leaves contain 35 parts of potash,
10 parts of lime and 8 parts of phosphoiio
acid. The diain, therefore, upon the pot
ash, soda, lime and phosphates in the soil,
is very great. The same may be said of
wheat and tobacco. Oats, rye and bariey
exhaust the soil, in rather lesser proportions,
and clover, turnips, the leguminous plants
and the grasses, least of all.
4th. “All plants do not restore to the soil
SOUTHERN CHRISTIAN ADVOCATE
the same qua itj or quantity ut m li tre.’'
Chaptal here means fitly the routs and
refuse of plants after the crop is taken off.
But the lessoning is equally appTcab'e in
regard to green crops turned uod r. Th-ie
are some plants which draw a large port on
of nourishment from the atmosphere—as
clover, for instance There are others —we
may cite wheat as an illustration —wh cti
draw comparatively little from that source.
A green crop of clover turned under would,
therefore, furnish to the s il not only the
c mstitueu’s the crop has drawn fr<mi it, hut
also those it had derived from the atmos
phere, and, by its system of tap roofs, much
nourishment that hail been otherwise locked
up in the sub-oil. The be-t illustration *>f
this is the fact that whilst the asln sos. an
acre of wheat, including the grain and straw,
do not weigh more than 90 pounds —the
ashes of one acre of clover will weigh 238
pounds—and the iatter are principally com
posed of the nio-t valuable constituents of
the soil From the above ‘statement it ne
cessarily follows that
sth “ All plants do not exhaust the s il
equally.’’
This we have endeavored to show is real
ly the case, and upon this acknowledged
fact the value of a judicious system of ro
tation is based.
Chaptal’s deductions are as follows :
That a long succession of crops exhaust,
•the soil. That the amount »f annual ex
haustion depends on the.nature of the crop
grown. That tap or spindle rooted crops —
clover, turnips, carrots, beets, etc ought to
succeed the running and superficial mo s—
wheat, oats, barley, corn, etc. That the
same crop should not be grown too frequent
ly on the same field. That no two grain
crops —say wheat, and oats —should follow
each other in succession. That, the losses
sustained by the soil from crops that draw
their nourishment chiefly from that source,
should be counteracted by adequate suppiti s
of manure, and, finally, that w: en the cul
tivation of cereals lias been carried to such
an extent that the soil shows sig' sos ex
haustion, res rt must be had to ilio-e crops
—clover, pc is, turnips, the legut.inn us
plants and ihe grasses—that tend to amelio
rate the soil and restore to it at least a por
tion of the feitility it has lost.
We have thus given as clearly as possible
the theory upon which the prevailing sys
tem of rotation Is based. That system, as
generally adopted, is not as perfect as it
might be; for the reason that green crops
and tap rooted plants do not succeed the
ceieals —which are lateral rooted plants —a-*
frequently as they ought to do. It follows
also from this, that we deal too much in ex
po-ed surfaces. A covered soil is an im
proving soil. I his fact is s > well known
and so thoroughly appreciated abroad, that
in lea-dug lands to tenants, the English land
owner stipulates that the grass laud or green
crops, shall always bear a c rraiu and well
defined pioportion to the land under cereals.
Here, with us, the necessity of adopting
some such rule is even more imperative i han
it is in England; for our ardent summers
and washin- rains, do more real injury to
the exposed soil, year by year, than the
most exhausting crops that can be taken
from it.
Pure Air.— A little sink near the kitch
en duor step, inadvertently formed, has been
known, although not exc. eding in its dimen
sions a single square foot, to spread sickness
through a whole household Hence, every
thing of the kind should be studiously ob
viated, so there should be no spot about
a farmhouse which can receive and lin'd
standing water, whether it, be the pure rain
from the sky, the contents of a wash-basin,
the slop-bowl, or the water pail.

DR. T. I\ CRUTCHER,
Has again returned to ma-
CON, where he is prepared to treat all persons
wishing to avaii themselves of the benefits of the
“ E QfCX A LIZER.”
The medical profession has long stood in need of
some agent whereby those obstinate diseases of a ner
vous character might be overcome, which arise from
a want of proper circulation of the BLOO;) or NER VO
VITAL FLUIDS. Dr. Hadfiild, of Lit'le Rock, Ar
kansas, has placed in the hands of the Profession an
instrument that he terms an “ EQUALIZER,” which
promises more than any remeoial agent, heretofore
used in the treatment of NERVOUS AFFECTIONS,
such as Rheumatism. Paralysis, Neuralgia
together with many ass etions peculiarly incident to
f-males. The prine pie upon which the instrument
acts is simple, but strictly scientific, and n accordance
with the Physiological and Pathological views entertain
ed by our prtfessiou since the days of Gain.
Tiie “ Equalizer 99
consists of a Receiver sufficiently largo to seat a lady
within the encasement without inconvenience. There
are, also oiher Receivers for tho arm, leg, and other
portions of the body, w hich may be adjusted by a
ch 1.1 ten years of ago. To the Receiver is attached an
AIR PUMP, by meins of whic i the air is exhausted
from the part enclosed. This causes a rush of blood
to the capillary system, thereby oiiating and opening
up the way for tie vitalizing fluids, so necessary for
the maintenance of life and vigor in the port diseased.
Causes of Weakness, Debility, Paralysis.
Deprive a man, do matter how healthy and robust
he i , of hi* na ural and proper supply of food, and
he will soon become weak, debilitated, emaciated, and
fina ly die of starvation. The Blood Vessels, which
permeate every part of the body are mediums where
by food is conveyed. Every bone, muscle, vein, arte
ry. gland, tissue and membrane must have anew sup
ply continua ly afforded it, and there is no possible
means of conveying this supp y except through the
medium of the blood vessels. Then, if these vessels,
from contraction or disease, fail to do their office, the
parts so deprived of nutriment are swollen or dimin
ished. losing their natural size and vigor, and finally
die. This is the real cause of a multitude of disease*
which at times appear without any assignable cause at
ail.
Now, what we p: opose to do with our “ Equalizer ” 1*
to aid ad assist nature in restoring a healthy circula
tion, by stimulation the vessels which supply oiseased
parts t"> action by rest ring them to tln ii norm il siaa
and power until they are able to -upp y the parts with
the amount of vita l fl nd neces ary to its life and ao>
tivity Tii s has the same tffect on weak or paralyzed
