as they have heen published in the Columbii

reasonably expected from a first meeting o
the kind in the present state of agriculture ir
South Carolina. But the beginning of a great
reform lias her n made ; or rmther, a reform,
previously commenced in all parts of the state
?%</1 receive an impulse from the convcntioi
that will hasten its progress The first 6tcj
towards improvement in any business is a con.
viction that it is both needed and attainable
It is abundantly evident that this conviction,
<n regard to the state of agriculture in Soutli
Carolina, tow prevails extensively, and ie
deepening and spreading in all parts of the
state, more especially where agricultural pa.
pers are most read.
As was to have been expected in so large a
body and in times of high political excitement
1 and party warfare, there were a few persons
in tiie convention, vs hose heads were filled
with other subjects than those bona fide agri
cultural,?subjects having in fact, properly m
more connection with agriculture, than th?
criminal code, or judiciary system of the state
or national Government. And as was to have
been equally expected, in a body compose<

} ''Ownrtl 6f trees [in Pennsylvania] have

. them as so much capital in the production of
I silk. At least one hundred cocoooerie* will
be fitted up in tho neighborhood of Philadelphia,
tlie average product of which will be one
hundred pounds of silk. Some individuals wo
know will not content themselves with raising
' Ices than five hundred pounds as a beginning.
> The result of tho next year's operations will
i bo to satisfy tree owners of the ab oluto value
of their trees, which will be lb lowed by a determination
not to sell, while at the seme time,
others will be stimulated to buy, for the same
reasons which induce the former to hold on."

Mi'LTtnauLin.?Superiority or i arok J
cuttings, amd southern cvtt1nos. Be- ;
tore last spring's planing, wo cntcrtain< d
theoretical prejudice against very large cut? i
t.ng*; but experience, the only aure teacher i
in such matters, then sot us right. Sotn* what i
more thai an acre of the field which we were i
planting, being extremely poor, it waa laid uff
' in furrows 8 feet apart; in these furrows, at
intervals of 3 feet small spvtafulls of rough
unrolled stable manure were dropped -<ud
| d viiled into two portions, from 8 to 5 inches j
apart. These were tlien covered with the
hoc, and one bud rutting* planted fvrp^ndiCUlarly
betwecu them, with the upper end about ,
I two inches below the surface. Hern tare
| committed two er*or^ which caused a very bad '
i stand. One was placing the manure, without j
a mixture of earth ami ta sandy soil, so near
the cuting as to absorb the moisture from <
" urcund it when drought came; the otner,
r placing the lower end of the cutting, from
* witicli the roots spring, nearly or quite in con*
tact with the hard, unbroken earth below,

' t.ngs surah enough to be divided with a strong J
1 slurp jk'ii knife, w ere the first cut and planted;
and alter wards lh>?e of larger sizt*,*froiii the
same trees, which it required a swill saw to
1 divide. They all sprouted in the ground,
' except a very tew of immature wood, from the
tops ol sotne branches ; and had the season
' proved wry favorable, all that aproutcd would
' probably have lived, notwithstanding the errors ;
' in planting. But when the severe drought of
spring came on, most of those which were
small and of middling size,?indeed nearly all j
that were not large, died. In sotne rows !
where 75 were planted not a tree is standing ; |
in somo from two to half a dozen, and ino'.hera 1
more, according to tlx* size of the cuttings.? j
^ Hut the fact tnosl worthy of remark, and inost |
particularly to ou> purpose, is that of 25 cut- '
I ting*, about an inch or mure in diameter, '
which were piaiueu together, and the row
noted, *23 grew and produced very fine tree* ;
' now ui iheir places a standing evidence of the |
j great super ority of large cuttings, whilst ]
within a fcvr feet of them arc roars entirely j
j vacant, planted at the same time, in precisely
the same kind of soil* and in the same way,
^ with the cui'ings from the same stock, only of
mal cr size, but such as would bo considered
excellent in any maiketi The bud* on some
o of the largo cuttings were injured in sawing,
e and these were doubtless, the ones which
t>; faded. For tbo purpose of shewing that the
j failure of so large a proportion of these cut>
ting* is to be ascribed only to bad planting, it
. may bo stated that a few days after the plsnU
r ing above refefed to, other rows were planted
between some of the first, with the seme bind
- of cuttings, but in a cute rent way; and from
r : tins hi tor pi inting the stand is most excellent
? for the season. It would be accounted good
i in any season. Here then is a fact as decisive
' as can be, in favor of large cuttings, proving
J conclusively that they will succeed, in a season
*
And nub management, which cause other and
good cuttings to tail. Bui this is not all. In
I t vo other spots of the same field were also
planter) a few, perhaps 35 or 30 cutting*, an
' inch or more in diameter, all we had loft of
t that size. These al> grew. To be sure other
> cuttings planted at the same time aluo grew; >
? but here n was the difference; the sprouts j
r from the Urge cuttings resstnbled, in vigor and
> rapidity of growth thnee from root#, of which
* there were thousands in the field, more than
1 they did those go.iersliy from cuttings of com>
m??n stse. Large cuttings* then, not only grew
more certainly than small ones, should the
. spring prove unfavorable as oft*a happens; I
t but they also produce, ilw 8m miasms setter

our banks will be unublu to discount a dollar
