This is not always just, but it in inevitable.

There is still another class who visit Saratoga with strntegi'tical purposes,' who might be desig , nated as wifi-hunters, only that the woman is 0 . 'matter ?if quite secondary interest. It is not Cinl?hs in search of a wife, but Ciclcbs in ?piest of a fortune?larger or less; tho possible Wife being regarded merely as n mortgage upon the estate. These fellows, always independent aud often clever, Bonictinn-s impose upon weak mammas and even susceptible maidens. Doubtless, pleasant ac quaintanceships are often ma?lc between worthy people at the fashionable summer resorts, which, alter the. probation of n subsequent intimacy, re sult in marriages as felicitous as any in the world. But I think it may be set down as a rule, with no important exceptions, that n?i sensible man, who doservoH to have a good wife, ever seeks her in a ball-room or in the salons o?' a popular watering place. In the career of m. re adventurers of both sexes there is now and then an instance of poetical jus tice fully equal t?) the example which one so much admires in tho inventions of the bards and dra matists. We liad a cuso of this sort at ?Saratoga Two seasons ago. Suppressing the real names, now, happily for the parties, to be found only in the newspapers ?if the time, it is sufficient to relate that Mr. Impecunious llrown anil Miss Impceunia Jones fell mutually in love at remarkable short notice?that is, each became suddenly enamored of the other's putative pecuniary attractions. Both being, for obvious reasons, in a hurry quite too bewildering to permit a nice examination of title deeds, thoy found themselves, married and half through their wedding tour before they discovered that'they had been mutually imposed upon. The general verdict of "Served 'em light" was a poor consolation to the nuhappy parties, whose mutual recriminations were as diverting to their neighbors an the alliance was distrecsing to themselves. There are a good miinv fashionable turnouts lo be seen at the fashionable hour for driving?any time after tlinncr?but the most remarkable affair is a low-set wagon, with a willow frame very gaily upholstered, drawn by two splendid horses, which -arc driven by a lady. * An o; :ginal, or rather abo riginal, feature of "the establishment is the pre sence in the footman's chair of a small savage?"a Sretty little Indian"?(like the one belonging to ohn Brown in the ballad)?borrowed for the sea son from a neighboring encampment. General K. E. L.ec. Wo have already announced that General R. E. Lee had been offered the Presidency of Washing ton College, Lexington, Va. Judge John Brochen borough, one of the visitors of the College, was sent to inform him of his election, and at OUV littest advices from Lexington had not returned. It is, therefore, not known whether General Lee will ac cent the position-, but in the absence of positive information on the subject, we arc inclined to tliiuk tiiat he will not. He has recently expressed the intention of leasing a grazing farm in Allo marle, and residing upon it with his family. Dur ing the past week he and Mrs. Loo have been ou a visit to Bremo, the plantation of General Philip St. George Coeke, fifteen or twenty miles above Car tersville, and was met there by Judge Brocken borough.

Fisher k Haskell, Cotto* Planters at Newbern, N. C, write, July, 1865, as foUows: "Tut- Phonphate of Lime we purchased of you gives good satisfaction. Lust year we applied fifty-five (.r>5) tons to three hundred and seventy-live {S7BJ an es of land for cotton, say about (MOO) three hundred pounds per acre. We rub bed the peed in the Phosphate, and ?tlso sowed it in the driU with the st>ed at Hie time of planting. On a portion of t belaud we applied a top dressing of the Lime at the Hccond hoeing. Throughout the season the cotton plants grew j well?the leaven were of a daric, healthy color, aud " No BUSX" was seou on the plantation. The ravages of thei army woroi prevented us from reabzing tho benefit from our outlay for the Lime in full, stUl the large number of partly grown bolls and form s gave some idea o? what the crop would have been could they have matured. Al though we saved a large ejuautity of manure on tbe place lattt year, our confidence in the value of your Phosphate led us to purchase of you last spring seventy tons, one-half of which we used ourselves, and tbe balance was bought for a friend, who was satisfied of its worth in cotton culture. At the time of writing this, our crop is look ing finely, and promises au abundant yield. One portion of our plantation consists of highlands with a clay sub soil, running near the surface; the remainder is n'ai and inclined to be sandy. The owner of the place te'lls its that bo did uot succeed with cot ton on this last part; but owing, as we think, to the liberal uae of your Phosphate, we have now a good crop growing upon it. ThiB is but tbe second season of cotton growing with us; still, from our exp?rience thus far. we do not hesitate to rot oinnieud your Phosphate of Lime as a manure well adapted to tbe wants of the cotton planter." NEWBEnnv, 8. C, October, 1W.0. Profc-6sor J. J. Mapes?Peer ?ir: I bought twenty bags of your Nitrogenized Superphosphate of Lime, of your Agents, Messrs. H. & N. E. Solomon, Hamburg, 8. C.

My neighbors, who are acquainted with the land, were astonished ut the luxuriant growth of the cotton where I used your Huperphosphate. It produced better cot ton, and ?larger amount, than on my good land; less work wus needed in making tbe cotton than on my other Und. Sot a particle of rutt was to be seen where I applied your Superphosphate, while the rnst prevailed over evtry otier portion of tbe crop. Respectfully yours, DAVID PAYNE.

Dear Sir: In reply to yours of the 1st inst., ? cheerfully state: I have used Mapes' Nitrc ge ni-.'.ei Superphosphate of Limo on my esttON of the prosent year, and am perfectly aatiatied with it? yield.

Mixon, of Ednnton, Chowan County, N. C, writes to Mr. Bockover: In regard to Mapi<?' Phosphate it worked admirably for me, tbe product being fully eclual if not superior to both the manures before mentioned. It did not start the young plant as early as either the other manures; but it seemed to retain its color and poda much better, and no symptom of rust was ever seen where it was applied?all the land 1 planted in cotton being about the same quality and strength. CHARLES W. MIXON. Extract from a letter from Colonol Gideon Dowse, of Ber/elia, noar Augusta, Ga., August, 18f>0: 3. ?. Mates?Dear Sir: I bave no hesitation in saying that on ray own farm your Superphosphate lus been, and is now, superior in its effects, where I have applied it on my cotton, to either lot-manure or cotton seed; and, as ccinjand to the hind without manure iu tbe some field (in ray opinion the only true way to test it), it is a? four to one in the number of grown bolls, and as ten to one in tbe young fruit and forms, in favor of tbe S.upcrphoa rbate. . . '__ _ Thiaopinion is binned rroni a uioec and critical examination by my overseer and myseir. There Ik one result from its application, which, if it had nothing eine to recommend it, is of Incalculable value, and that is. It docs sccro to guard against that worst enemy of the cotton plant, namely, the rust. I have ui>plit'?l it to land that invariably ruHta cotton, and there in as yet not a sign of rust In it, while the same kind of land just adjoining is ?ximph'ttfy ruined by it ?Greedy. Thl? experiment conilrins that mode by Mr. Loman, of 8. C, last your ; and I am fully persuaded that any plant manure?! with it doea withstand a tire ught better and keeps prtxn longer than with any other application that han come under my notice. 1 have seen cotton, corn, okra, melons and other gordep planta,' that havu kept green during the tembl? drought that lion so completely destroyed all our gardens, and my nutmeg melons are an green and blooming as beautiliiUy a* in spring. I have written thia a? the result of my judgment from clone observation. When I a h all have gathered my crops it will give me pleasure to give you the munit from actual weight and measure.

Extr?ct from Weekly Day-Book: New Tobk, October 29, iWO. 7 "We bave, in the course of an extctisive agricultural correspondence, gathered evidence of the superior voice of MapM' N'itrogeni/nl Superphosphate of Lime upon the cotton tields of the South, where i'? mviun (Jimno had been used .with, partial sutx-ess.
