' «*1 ■WFi'S?- . '****' ©biluarg. 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. Tribute of Respect. Adopted, by the 4//i Quarterly Conference 1866, for the Richmond Circuit , in refer ence to the death of li. F.

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.

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.
