Action and Method of Using Guano. In answer to the inquiries of our friend of " Notly Hall," Va., in regard to the action of guano on "poor worn-out land,' we have to reply; that, on such lands, its action should be most manifest-most ben eficial-contaiiiing as it does, in a state to be availed of, those substances which plants need, which such land is most de ficient in, and without a supply of which, they cannot grow in luxuriance and per feetion. The non-action of the guano upon all the kinds of vegetables, with the exception of one to which he applied it, arose no doubt from the cause assigned by our observant friend, viz: the drought of the summer. Guano, like all other kindred manures, requires moisture to bring out its virtues; nor can the plants avail themselves of any food that may be in the ground, no matter how congenial it may be, until that food, through the agency of water, be reduced to a liquid, or gaseous form, it is one or the other of these forms which impart. to the rootlets of plants the power of feeding. With regard to the mode of using gu ano, we give it as our opinion, which we advanced from the beginning, and have never seen any cause to change it, that guano never should be applied without being mixed with plaster, to fix and pre vent the escape and waste of its ammonia cal constituents. Before being used, 25 lbs. of plaster should be mixed with every 100 lbs. of Guano. This mixture should be broadcasted over the ground and ploughed, or spaded in. We believe that any manure of the concentrated nature of guano, abounding as it does in the ele ments of ammonia in almost every state, can but rarely be used safely, except as a broadcast dressing, and that it cannot be advantageously used in the hill or drill, except when mixed with a large propor tion, say twenty to one, of mould or some other substance of similar nature, and even then, that such compost should be placed so deep as that the seed, setts, or plants should not come in immediate con tact with it. If we were going to apply it to pota toes in the hill, if we did not use it com posted with a large body of mould as above, we would use it thus-after mixing the guano with plaster, we would strew the mixture on the bottom of the furrow or drill, and then cover that with an inch or so of wood-mould, or other kindred substance, and upon this plant the pota to setts, and cover the whole over. In using it on watermelon hills, we would act thus: at the point for forming the hill, we would make a hole with the hoe, and there deposite the mixture of guano and plaster, mix it in with the earth, and raise the hill upon it from the sur rounding mould ; or we would mix 200 lbs. of guano with 50 lbs. of plaster, and then compost it with 3 loads of wood mould, marsh mud, or like substance, place a shovelful at the bottom of every hill we might raise. By either of these modes the vines would derive all the bene fit from the virtues of the guano, without any injury. The volatile portions would ascend and feed the rootlets of the melon plants, wvhile the roots would descend and feast upon those of the constituent ele ments of guano that are not volatile. A solution of guano might be made in the proportion of 1 lb. of guano and 10 gallons of water, wvith which the melon plants might be very advantageously wa tered in times of drought. Such a soln tion would prove doubly useful, first, in protecting the vines from the effects of drought; and secondly by affording them direct food-food of a nature adapted to their wants, as the wvater would decom pose the ammonia of the guano, deprive it of the power of harm, and prepare it to be taken up as pabulum. W.e will add another remark, in order to answer a question from another quar ter. We believe the best way to apply guano to tobacco, is to sow it broadcast over the ground and plough it in-and, that if applied to the hill, it should be mixed with one-fourth its weight of plas ter,~and for every 100 lbs. of the guano, three loads of wood's mould should be composted with it. In Peru, guano is ap. plied to the crops at each time of work ing ; but all such applications, are follow ed by immediate irrigation ; the water ol which, by decomposing the ammonia of the manure, prevents all resulting injury, and ensures benefit to the growving plants. Where a wheat crop is to follow the tobacco, we would, by all means, broad cast and plough the guano in. If treated to plaster and ploughed in, we have no question but that the good effects of the guano would be apparent during the or dinary period of a rotation.-American Farmer. TURNING IN GREEN CRors.-Samuel Eager, of Worthington, in a letter to Samuel L. Hinckley, Secretary of the Hampshire, Franklin, and Hampden Ag ricultural Society, gives the following result of an experiment in "turning in crops, either green or dry, as a manure," submitting the same as an application for a premium, under the first division of " Experiments on Manure," offered by said Society. We copy from the Brat ieborough Eagle. " The experiment has occupied several years, and I have devoted no little time and attention to the subject, 1 am happy to say, with the most satisfactory result. I had about two and a half acres of meadow, which was worn out entirely ; and when I seeded it down, the grass wvould not take. I commenced by spread. ing green stable manure over it, at the rate of about twelve loads to the acre, and plowed in, rolled it, furrowed it, and planted to eorn, adding about eight loads of manure to the acre in the hill, making in all twenty loads to the acre. I got a fair crop of corn, and next year seeded it down to oats, with about eight pounds clover-seed to the acre. The followving June, the clover being very thick, and about knee high, [-turned it in very care an excellent crop. I cut the buckwheat as high as possible, and turned the stub ble in, then sowed the-oats four succes aive years, (cradling my oats as high as possible, and immediately turning the stubble in,) and got an increased crop every succeeding year. The manure a lone would have run out in two- or three years.; but turning in the clover and the stubble every year, enriched the land, and increased the crop. This piece, having been seeded down, now bears very heavy grass, quite equal to three tons to the acre." Emtssment.__ The Old Maid who wanted a Eusband. Old Gov. L-, of Vermont, was one of the most inveterate jokers of the early times. Here is one of his yarns which never has been related in print, and never can be, perhaps, with much effect ; but we will try it. One fall as he was returning from the Legislature on horseback, as usual at that day, he was hailed from a house by a garrulous old maid, who had often annoyed him with questions respect. ing public affairs. " Well, Governor," said she, coming out towards the road, " what new laws have you passed at Montpelier, this time? " Well, one rather singular law among the rest," he replied. " Dew tell! Now, what is it, Gover nor?" asked the excited querist. " Why, that the woman in each town, who has the smallest mouth, shall be war. ranted a husband." " Whoy, whot !" said she, drawing up her mouth to the smallest compass," whot a queer curious lor that is !" " Yes, but we have passed another that beats that-the woman who has the lar gest mouth is to have two husbands." " Why, whart!" exclaimed the old maid, instantly relaxing her mouth and stretching it wider and wider at every syllable, " what a remarkabie law that is -when does it come in force, Gover nor " At this, the Governor put spurs to his horse, and vanquished.-Green Mountain Freeman. PREACHING PoLITIcs.-A worthy dea. con in Connecticut hired a journeyman farmer, from a neighboring town, for the summer, and induced him-although he was unaccustomed to church-going with his family to church on the first Sabbath of his stay. Upon their return to the deacon's house he asked his "hired man" how he liked preaching. He said he didn't like to hear any min ister 'preach politics.' "I am sure you heard no politics to day said the deacon. " I am very sure that I did," said the gentleman. "Mention the passage if you please," said the deacon. " I will. He said, 'if the Federalists scarcely are saved, where would the Democrats appear?'" " Ah," said the deacon, " you mistake. These were the words: " If the righte ens scarcely are saved, how will the un godly and wicked appear?" " Oh, yes !" said the man, " he might have used those words, but I know darned well what he meant." GENDERs.-" How many genders are there I" asked a school master. " Three, sir," promptly replied little blue eyes. " What are they called ?" " Masculine, feminine and neuter." "Pray give me an example of each," said the Master. " Why, you are masculine, because you are a man, and I am feminine, because I'm a girl !" "Very well-proceed." " I don't know," said the little girl "but 1 reckon Mr. Jenkins is neuter, as he's an Old Bachelor 1" RATs.-" Dick what are you about there ?" said a gentleman to his servant whom he saw loitering about the barn. " Catching rats sir !" " And howv many have you caught ?" " Why sir, wvhen I get the one I'm after nowv, and another one, it will make two !" DoN'T YOU DO 1.--If you should hap pen to catch yourself whistling in a print ing office, and the comnpositors tell you to whistie louder-don't you do it. If on an odd occasion your wife should exclaim to you, "nowv tumble over the cradle and break your neck, do !"-don't you do it. A celebrated colored preacher in speak ing of " the division of the sheep and goats," said-" Bredren you can see which side do collered persons wvill be on, for dey hab do wool." "FATHER wants you to send him two yards of black broadcloth-ho don't care what color it is, and when he kills his pig last week he'll pay you what you owe him." " HSBAaND I hope you have no objec tion to my being weighed." " Certainly not, my dear, but why do you ask the question I" "Only to see, love, if you would let me have my weigh once."

I make this simple state ment of facts. My boy Daniel stuck a thorn i; his foot about the first of last June, the thor: was extracted, and no more thought of it for 1 or 20 days, his foot then began to swell, and in few days it was opened. It discharged a larg quantity of matter. The discharge continue( for eight days, and then ceased. 11is foot the: re-commenced swelling and extended up his leg thigh, and hip, with violent pain. He then be gan to spit from his lungs matter similar to thu discharged from the abscess on his foot. I the called in medical aid, and from the remedies used he was alternately better and worse for eight c ten weeks. During this time a large absec: formed upon the hip, the discharge was larg< and as soon as it ceased, a general swelling of h leg, thigh and breast commenced, which was ver hard to the touch, and at times experienced muc difficulty in swallowing. hledical aid seemed c no further avail, and was discontinued. I the had recourse to your " Alagical Pain Eradicator. In forty-eight hours, from the time I commence its use, his root began to soften : the swelling o his hip and breast subsided, and I amn pleased I say he is now well. I again used your remedy in a case of Net ralgia, with great success, giving immediate rc lief. I have tried it also for Tooth-Ache, wit my youngest child, with entire Euccess.

Every year the symptoms became worse, nor could I obtain pcrmanent sehef from any course o medical treatment whatever. About fourtueens years -since, in consequtenice of frequent exposure to the Sweather, in the discharge of my pastoral duties, I be came subject to a severe Chronmc itheumatism, which rfor year after year, caused me indescribable anguish Farther: in the winter of 'lb and '46. in consequence of preaching a great deal in my own and various other churches in this region, i was attacked by the Bronchitis, wvhich soon became so severe as to require an immediate suspenusion of my pastoral labors My snervous syutem weas noe lhorunghl prostraeed, and as my Bronchitis became worse, soalsdid my Dyspeps and Rhhe'smatic affection-thus evincing that these rdisorders were connected with each othes through the medium of the Nervous System. in the whole -pharmacopeis there seemed to he no remedlial agent which could reach and rectuperate my Nervous Sys tem ; every thiu,g that I had ined for this purpose had completely failed. At last i was led by my friends to examine your inventions, and (though with no very sanguine hopes of their esliciency,) I deternuined to try the effect of the aplication of the (GA LV ANIC BKL'T AND NECKLALK with the .\AGNETIC FLUiD.
