From the Soil of the South. WORK FOR TE SEASON. The game is rapidly drawing to a close, I and soon the operations of erop.imaking for another year, will have ended. We may see much to regret in the errors and omissions i of the past ; these may not be cured, but if properly noted and remembered, may have in them lessons of instruction and warning, for the future. Experience is often our best teacher, and its instructions ought not to be lost to ourselves, or to the world. The cotton crop is now in its full tide, moving rapidly on to its itostiny. What may be the result no one can forell. Its season of cakimities is yet to be -sed. There are however so e things which remain to be done, abou_ which we may sppropriately ol fer a few thoughts. Shrlow plowivgi are now to be kept up, and we think may be continued to advantage, almost as long as there is space between the rows for the pass ing of the mule and the plow. Our convic t-ions are decidedly in favor of late workings to this crop. As the plow only operates in the middle of the row, the hoes must keel) all clean in the drill, by carefully removing all remaining grass or w.eeds, and keeping up a proper supp!y of soft earth about the root of the plant. The heaping of earth upon the-roots should not to be carried to an extreme. The laws of nature and'its in dications are to be regarded, and should not be violated, by covering the roots too deep. SAVING FODDER. Blefore the issue of our next, ibis portion of the harvest- may hai ar'rived with some. It is alquestion .ofimportance, and one oftei settled to the injury of the corn, to know when the fodder is ripe, or rather, when the corn will bear the stripping of the blades. This should never be done until the milk has -disapp.eared; and the shrinking of the grain has-well commenced. The exposure of the talk and the ear is very sudden, and very Ireat, ad if the grain is not well. re ar the value of the whole fodder crop. The blades when pulled may be spread to dry in the middle of the rows, or be hung in small bunches upon the stalk. When dry these are to be made into larger bundles and stacked immediately- This is done late in the evening or in the mornirng, before the dew has dried off. In an emergency, fodder may be stacked when partially cured, and as soon as it becomes hot in the stack, pull. ed down again, slightly aired, and then re stacked. This is greatly preferable to hav. ing it wet by rain, as it is much more ac ceptable as an article of food. When well cured, the double or treble stack is better than the single, as so much less surface is exposed to the weather. It would be better and we suppose generally good economy, to provide houses for all such crops. But ne. cessity has Pot yet forced upon us the im portance of much care, in this department. HAY. We have given our advice about saving fodder, because it has been the long estab lished reliance of the Southern planiter for this kind of rood, and because we ate not ready for its total abandonment. Yet all are prepared to admit that it is hard, disa gregable werk, badly laid out. We have been hinting very strongly ior a change, anid and as we think it practicable and desirable that it should be made, we, in good time, uirge upon our readers 'to try and see wvhat mayi be done this summer, in hay-making. Ours is put down as no grass country : all this has been assigned to higher latitudes, and it is true, that the hay wvhich we buy i made from grassses whbich seem to flourish best in them ; but we have our peculiar grasses, a generous Providence has~ not with. held from us -her gifts, in this regard. QOr error, wye think, has been in discarding and refusing those gifts, and failing properly to appreciate them. It is not loger a question of doubt or de bate, as to what may be done wvith the crab grass, crowfoot and peavine. These are all peculiarly and confidently ours. We get fr-omi our corn two hundred and fifty or three hundred pounds of fodder to the acr -, whenI wie often have upon our stubble lands, with out the trouble of sowing or culture, many1 acres of luxuriant grass wvhich would yield five or tenl times as much in hay. This weI leave to bleach and dry as a thing of no ac count. * As we have remarked, necessity has not been laid upon us; hence wve have been con tent. Yet if there is a better way let it hi adopted.. MaJny:otthe. little experiments which-have been made, have filed, becau sa improperly conducted-the grass has been| left too~ long. It should be cut when in -bloom, exposed to the sun until about half enc-ed, then thrown into small heaps or ricks, and allowed to cure in that way-after which' it is to be stacked or carried to the barn. 3 Thie common error has beeni to wait until the grass was in seed, and when cut, to al row' it to be exposed to the sun until it w'as fully dry, thus allowing much of its nutri tious juices to escape before cutting, and the balance to be lost in drying. The crowvfootC grass might be raised to great advantage by saving the seed, to be sowved upon rich wveill prerared lots. We shall at another time,I say something about the practicability of raising the red clover this far South, and many of our readers, wve doubt not, wvill be surprised at the abundant testimony wvhich may be produced in its favor. But our pre-c sent purpose is to urge the use of the means which we already-have, without wasting our ti time in regrets, or unrequited efforts, to in troduce the products whien belong by nature to others. These efforts are laudable and patriotic-, but while we are wvaiting for their a consummation, there is no need that we re fuse the gifts already bestowed. r D-rCmING AND DRAINING. I We have devoted much of our space in si former volumes, to the subject-of ditching, .y and have- endeavored to impress the value of ri proper drainage to all our eultivated lands, n for successful cropping. This subject has e lost none of its importance with us, and wves are gratified to know that as the question of u improved culture is be'mg agitated, the ne- si cessity for freeing the soil from all stagnan tid water, is being better understood, and more pl extensively practiced. There are many flat, e c lowv basin spots on almost all farms, which e show no pond or standing water upon the di surface, yet upon examination, it wvould he he found at the distance of one, twvo or three -a feet below, standing all through the sprning, c sending up. froim these stagnant pools poison- ta ous influences, defeating all efforts to start a tir .erop. The extra work expended each-b spring, (all-of which often ends in failure at last), would be quite spfficient to afford re lief, and make a permanent cure, hyacutting th -a ditch to bear off the water. For suchli tit - ~A w hae riben. a covered drain 1g: vould answer the purpose, and leave tio ugly car to mar the beauty of the farm. Bt we lo not now propose a treatise on this sub. ect, but to suggest this, as one of the em )loyments which might properly and profita )ly engage the attention of planters, in the eisure soon to ensue, when the crop is mnade. Some places covered with water in the win. ;er and spring are now drN, and a few strong nen constantly employed with good spades ind shovels, will soonl accomplish a large inount of ditching. MISCELLANEOUS. When the season for field work shall have slacked off, there are many little jobs to laim attention. Putyour roads all in good order, clean the fence corners, inside and Dut-this'adds to the neat appearance of the farm, and preserves the fence from rotting; look to little repairs about the houses, espe cially the cribs, barns and gin-houses, clean up the yards, removing all decaying. vegeta ble matter, or filth, which might genert fever, and whitewash all the negro houses inside and out with lime. Much more will be saved in the health of negroes, than all these little precantionary measures will cost. A good plantation barbecue about this time, puts a bright face upon the closing scene, and its benefits will be seen in renewing obiliga. tions to cheerful obedience. Fear is a servile passion; some suppose the negro knows no other; this we knofwto be an error, but that there are higher, nobler impulses to be found in their hearts, to which successful appeals mny be made in their government. THE PERT YOUNG MAN. There isa perind in the life ot a youngc man, which may appropriAtely be called thle age o f puppyism. It is at that period when he is a little more than a boy, a good deal less than a man; when the hand, stroked across the chii detects a sort of downy ine quality, and visions of barbers and razors rise. up- con tantly before 'hit ; when the tance." Very tight pantaloons, displaying, immense moral and physical courage in ven turing into the world witb such slender sup. ports as they contain ; a cravat of greatt pro portions; a knowing, h lfjockey, half-gen tlenen hat; fattcy vest, gold chain, and a quizzing-ghiss, make up the external qualifi cations of the pert young matn.-IHe sets lis legs apart in addressing mn old enough to be his grandfather, twirls his cigar, and calls him " my dear fellow," or " tny boy." His parental parent ie always calls " the gover. nor," and never thintks of him, or refers to him, except when he wattts the " governor to come down hantdsoie," who as he tmaitt tains has no right to " expect a tnat to lie unable to pay his billiard expenses. HL. walks the streets as though ie owned themtt salutes the ldies with a fascinating smile, atid takes oil' his hat to them whten be passed them, as though hte did not wish the courtesy to be observed ; but, ten, he hta observed older men do thtis, attd hte thtitks it "detmtn'd genttlematily " to do so likewise. His contversational ptowers ate very limni:ed never htavitng fathotmed attythting deeper thant the bottom of a bratndy snuisht, or exto Ide. his ittquiry beyotnd the bill of fare o)f hti, a vorite restaturaut. In his ttantner to leuie he is rather patroniin, attd at the stm time very humane: rot, it iltt first intstance, lie acts upon the convictiont of thte infe~riotrityv of thte sex, antd, ini the next, with cottsidera tion with regard to thte killing elffects of hi own beauty and matty accompjlishments. Hie cantnot possibly ttarry thtett all, antd to showv partiality would lie unfaitr. H is htead is the only place where nature acknons ledges a petfect vacuumn. BENEVOLENCE AED HAPPINESS. A htfe o1 paniontate gratilientiont is ntot to be compared with a life of aetiv'e bettevo ence. God has so conistitutedl our nature. that a man catnnot be happy nule-s3 he is, oir thittks he is, a mzeatts of doitng good. J udging~ frotm our own exp~erience, we cannot cont ceive of a picture of more uttuttetrable wretchedness than is furtikhted by one who ktows thtat hte is whtolly useless ini thte world. Give a man what you ptlealse, sur ound htimt with all thte mteatts of gra tifica iott, and vet let thte convictionc come hotte o0 him, clear antd irresistible, that there ts ot a being iti God's utniverse a whit thte etter or happier for htis existence ; let himt eel that hte is thtus a blot upotn, because at lantk itt, the utniverse, antd the universe wvill aot furnish a more utthappy beitg.- [1ereitn ties the solution of that to many, inexplica le fact, that the schemes of tmere selfishntess, iowever wise v laid, Ito a-ever enterget ie4[ md -succes ifrosecuted, tiever add -to he joys, but alvays to the ptitns of those vho originate and ettg;ge itn them.

L'ake fromt htimt what you please, and you do tot take frotn hitt thte eletnents of htis joy, if you leave him the cotnviction that itn anty vay bte is useful. If you cotract the citcle, and diminish thte sphtere of htis influence, you letract from htis joy ontly' as you dettact fromt tis meatis of dointg good. Atnd as we can ot conceive of a mto're wretched being than ne who feels himnself to be thte slave of an incontrolled selfishness, so we cantnot colt. eive of as happier beintg thant a mant of tru y benevolent heart, wvhose wishtes describe he circle and hound the sphere of his itn.

DON'-r BE IN .A G~URRY.-lthe philosopher f the Williamsburg Daily Tlimes ntoralizes >r the contsolationt of yountg ladies who want a get married and can't, as followvs: Shte stood beside the altar when she was ixteen .Shte was in love ; her destiny rest. d on a creature in fashiotiable clothes, wvitht n empty pocket. lie " conies of a good smily," however, and blood, you know, is otething. She looked lovely as she pro-. ounced the vow. Think of a vow from an urn hair, dark eyes, atnd pouting lips, only ixteen years old! She stood beside the rashtub when her tweaty-fifih birtltday ar ved. Thle hair, the eyes, and the lips were ot calculated to excite thte heart.- Five ross young ones were- about the room, >e crying, some breaking things, and one rging the immediate supptly of thte Iacteal scretioni. She stopped in despamir and sat >vn, and tears triekled down her once ump attd ruddy chteeks. Alas ! Nancy, ry marriages are not the dodge. Better joy youth at htome, and hold lovers at a stance, until you have limb, mtuscle atndI art, to face thte frowiing world amid a mily. If a chap really cares for you, he n wvait two otr three years. mtake presentts, ke you to concerts, anid so on, unitil the ne comes. Early marriages and early cab ges are ten'der prodetions. DoGArIC Ar..-It has been discovered at where a lot of boarders are fed for comte STANDING A' CnuH ci DoRs.-Tt is a common practice, when a congregation is dismiOssed, tn see a line of young gentlemen, ranged along the curb stone, staring impu dentlv at every female that cotes out, and often indulging in impertinent remarks that cannot but be heard by those who are the subject of them. Very rarely there may be tound, among the mob of dandies and dunces, I a husband, a father, or brother, whom ua n. voidalile circumstances has prevented attend- f ing church, and who c w:iitin' to accompa ny a wife, danghter, Such, of course, o as seareely one in tI as they formn, in flae rule, we shall speak this custom without the addle headed lad. and cmes, averaging aul , eighteen years of age, who form the great mass of these impertinent spectators, that we would hold up to public reproof. Where are the fathers of these young dandies ? Where is the wholesone rod whieb Solomon recommended ?-W here is the police? Only a refined female knows how annoy ing it is to run the gauntlet of these imma ture boys. Nor do they spare anybody. 'he matron is just as munch at their mercy as the maiden ; the plain face as subject to remark as the beautiful one ; the poorly dressed as open to impertinence as the most richly attired. One female meets a sneer as she paszes, because she does not happen to p-lease the fancy of some young fool, while the cheeks or another are made to tingle hY his loud and insolent admiration. Even where the lady escapes without verbal in suit, she is stared out of countenance, and has no resource, except to drop her veil, hurry on, and escape' into a more respectful atnosphere as 'ast as posible.
