-'SECRET 'SOUIETIES. There is no-argumnent,'based-on the im puted secrecwof the Order'of the Sons of Temperance, which '1ois not apply with equal force to every'Chtnch--rgaqlzntion,. and even to our Govrnnidnt iiself,'in some of its administrafl e feituis. The 'litter has its Cabinet Cdunile;. Ecelisiastical bodies have their conclaves, their. E6isisto. ries, their church sessions and their church -meetings, all of which are as "secret" as are the meetings of our - Order. Do not ecclesiastical bodies, then, which- condeldn secret socieiies," and especially those proressedly organized for the promotion df temperance and sound morality, eiually 'condemnlthemselvel, qr at least show a great want of conuiste'cy, when- rhey sie at the sate time holding their own."seeret meetings ! '' be -Divine Author of our .religida liiA, * y.'their fruits ye shall knoilihem," ind is? it t'o much to ask thdt 'we may be judged by this enerring rule ? 'Some make serious objecto's'so what ney term the "clannish'.spirit, attendant *on, and engendered by these associations. *But this ojeQtion s' ies with bqual forbe 'ainst air 6~eisiastical organIaions, nd even with'itronger force against the d'd. 'nestic relation itself. Still, it is so in comprehensibly mysterious that Tempe rance and other r aI'chdritabJe'pko-. 'elations should hold secret meetings! We "will give one reason, and -as our opy6sers sometimes quote Scripture to condemn us, we will give it in the w'6rds or the-Blessed Redeemer as recorded in St. Matthew, Chap. V.1.2 3.4. 1. Take heed that ye do not your alms before men, to be seen of them; otherwise .ye have no reward of your Father which isin Heaven. 2. Therefore, when 'thou 'doest tine alms, do not sound -a'truinpet before thee. as the-hypocritEs dq'in the' synagoglies and in the- streets, that they may' h'dve-glory of men. Verily, I say. unto you, they have their-teward. - . 3. 'But when' thou dloest 'alms,-let it tbihy left band-kbdw whatthy'tiglit hand doeth. 4. That. thine alms may 'te in secret, and thy Fatlier which seeth -in '6ecret, himself shall reward thee openly. And further than Ihis, their pass wid, the only secret they .have, is merely in aended to guard them from .imposition. Oaths and secret pledges have been im -puted to us, but no oaths4r'e taken, and 'no pledges of secrecy thdt ire it all ex ceptionable. Nor does an'indi'ilual take any pledge to keep secret that,',of'two na. ture of which, he is ignorant. Whe'n 'iny one offers himself for initiatioh,-the'*at'itre of the pledge and the obligaitio's he 'is about to assume, is fully expla edto him before be is reiguired to take 'aiy 'ledge at all. He will then learn that the hnuger to our liberties w hich 'some 'edr 'mo'rbuch, a mere phantom of itse iinaginaiion.

S~OILSAND TH K K MANAGE *-V. MENT.. Soils are opvarious kinds, is heavy and 'igbt, wet and dry. fertile, and steril.e. They all require dif'ereur management, in a great or less -degree. jpeavy soils, bre often stronger and more productive than light;.but the) require thdre labor 'for pulverization and tillage. Thy cannot be plowed when very wet, nor so well when very dry. Although containing gAdti or less pr'oportions of clay, they may he distinguish'ed. as a class. rrom lighter soits, by 'the cloddy surface the Helds present aftir Pldving -in dry Weather; by their cracking in drouglit, and by their adhesiVeness aften rains. . Sandy and gravelly loam, also contain 'lay, but ib smaller quantity; so that they donot, presenthe'el'dIliness and adhesive ness .f'hehy'ails. Thou possessing generallyfeis strength than cui'fsoirs, they dre far more easly -iJlled, and 'may by worked without difficulty'in wet wveather; they do not crack or bake in dro'ghts.

Wien ma-e rich,'tiey are fine for some suchltent'ilooi. -Paty soils aie generally light and free, containing large quantities of decayed veg etable matter. They are made by drain ing low and swampy grounds. They are fine for In:diau corn, broom corn, barley, potatoes, and turnips. They are great absorbers, mad great radiators of heat; hence they become warm in sunsbine, and cold in clear nights. For this reas-m they 'srtbeuliarly liable to frosts.-Crops plant ed upon the tist'Wotiequently be put in late-after spring fro'sts are over. Corn should be of varieties, that it may not only be planted late, but ripen early. -Each of these kind' of soils may be vari ously improved. Most of heavy soils are nitfeh improved by draining; open drains tcarry off the surface water, and covered drains, hat which settles beneath. An acquaintance covered a low, wet. ilayey tiehl with a net worsof under-drains. and freii a .production of almost nothing but grass, it yielded the first year, forty bush ele of wheat per acre-enough to pay the expense, mud admitted of much easier till age afterwards. -Heavy 'soils -are also made lighter and frier by manuring; by plowing under coat ings df 'strtv, 'rotten chips, and swamp muck; and in s.oie'rare cases, by carting on sand-thugh this is 'usally too ex pensive for practice. Subsoil plowing 'is very- beneficial, both -in wet seasons and in drought; the deep, loose bed ofearth it brakos. receiving the water in heavy rains, and lfrowing it off to the soil above, when needed. 'Iut a frequent repetition of the opertibb is needed, s the subsoil gradually settles again. '$ady soils aireimproved by mandiring, by the application of lime, and by frequent lyturning in preen crops. . Twcached ashes have been founa iigily beneliaidl in many plikes.

The namte of ihe man is R. Sdsith, a Boot and Shoe dealer, who had resided sotne years in Richmond. It appears he hadt boxed up a coutple df-negroes, attach ed as .waiter. to one of the principal Ho tels... The boxes ivas ordired to be'put in the Express Cars, which are locked up and never opened until their arrival at Washington City, and, If the project had been carried into execution, thaere can be little doubt'that they would have pirish~ed. Fdrtuinntely, hbwever. in 'removing the boxes, a piece of the enti of one of them was broken off, whetn the woolly head of thoeceptnt '*ab disc~Ved. fle was telieved'rrb his imprison ment, as well as his friend ina 'iother box."

INPonRANtT DzscmosinEs.-During .t h investigation yesterday by the Comsmiss -oners di the Cress Roads, of the young men who had heen arrested under suspi cions cirbumstances, connected with the recent fire on the Neck. very important disclosures were elicited from one of the company. His testimony, taken down by G. W. Egleston, Esq.. implicates se veral of his companions in wicked~ness, in setting fire to the premises of Blouston, ont King-street. which caused the fire of the mortaing of the 2d inst. Two of them we underutgond have been turned over to the Attorney -general; and means have been adopted by thes Roard to secnre officers who are at large, arnd without the limits of the city, and we have no doubt, from the energy displayed 'y the Commiss ioners, that their efforts will be crowned wih success.
