MESSRS. COLTER & SCOOTER, Editors. Let idle Ambition her baubles pursue, While Wisdom looks down with disdain, The home of the farmer has charms ever new, Where health, peace and competence reign." * WANT OF EDITORIAL. We have no taste for apologies, and re luctantly resort to this source for an article. But as our BRO. COULTER, is very fond of getting over this difficulty, by throwing the burden on ScooTER, and charging him with running off to the Cotton patch with origi nal articles, &c., we would suggest to him that he might furnish some other kind of ar. tieles if he would. . He certainly could give our readers something interesting upon Corn raising, the value of Guano, as a manure the best mode of applying it-Ahe best method of filling Empty Corn-Cribs &c. Blooded Stock, Hogs, and Goats-these are subjects upon which he might dilate with interest and profit to himself, and edifi cation to our readers. We only offer these suggestions to supply the present difficiency of Editorial, and to guard against such con tingencies for the future. For the Advertiser. MILLVILLE, April 25th, 1856. Mzssas EDIToRs: I see in the columns of your paper that my friend, (DR. PRoGREsS,) wishes to know from me, my experience in Sheep raising. I will inform him, through your paper, that I have a secret about the business which I do not tell every body; but if he will enclose me five dollars I will let him into the secret. I think he can make more money by becoming master of this secret than he is now making by his Grape Vines. Yours Respectfully, G. D. M. For the Advertiser. TO GOURD SEED. JUST as we expected! In every new in vention or improvement, the gumbling critic finds'something to spout about. Suspicious in their natures and generally men of little practical energy; they eagerly pounce up on whatever improvement or new invention is offered to the consideration of the public, andiwithout proving all things and holding fast to that which is good, they content themselves with lifting their wvarning voices and crying, Humbug! Humbug!! Our friend, GOURD SEED, it seems, from hiis unjust strictures upon article setting forth the elaims of Boyd's Extra Prolific Cotton, has assumed the position of a critic, and of eonrse we must be allowed to deal with him as such. GOURD SEED, as an A gricultural writer, we must admit to be Sum Punkins, and as he has given his views with so much good humor, we can't fall out with him. We will, however, correct som~e of his a.istakes. lie insinuates very plainly that our whole object was to sell the seed of this Extra Prolific Cotton, we admit that we had a few -for sale, but will GOURD SEED, presume to say, that for the sake of a few dollars that we would, not only misrepresent their claims, but that we would also impose a worthless humbug upon our brother farmers I Money don't destroy all our sense of honor and propriety. At one dollar per bushel, we have disposed of all the seed we could spare and what will surprise GOURD SEED more is, that we have failed to fill orders for 40 bushels, for want of seed to supply, the do mnand. We must be allowed to presume, that GOURD SEED has mistaken our locaity, as we claim to be among the first, that plan ted this cotton in the State, and that we have, from our own experience, a right to know and speak of its prolific qualities. The greatest objection that I find to tho article of GOURD SEED is, notwithstanding its harmless humor, it seems to make a farce of every kind of improvement and progress, and especially of the large crops that were made last year. Is it possible that GOURD SEED, who has lived bo!I these many years, in the enlightened community, about Cam bridge, and in this progressive age of Rail Roads, Steam and Lightning, is still behind the times, and earying the pumpkin in one end of the bag and a'rock in the other I No 1se reamIt believe it. We see progress and improvement .atatmped upon his signature, .nnd if he wil 1.follow his own pedigree back *to the .remote :autiquities of the days of Jona, he will make some pleasing discove -u.res, as to the cause of his own fondness for Fishing, if not for Fox-hunting. As the grass is now growing, we must take our leave of you, hoping that you will start some other game as this critter is tired of you. CAPT. REYNA RD. *GROUND Mor.Es.-The editor of the Sum ter Watchman, says, " a friend is troubled with a largenumber of ground moles, which infest his fields, producing much destruction to his eorn, both before and after making its appearance above the ground," and calls for a remedy or preventative for their ravages. The mole is a much slandered and abused little animal, for, instead of being the thief and marauder it is represented, it is really incapable of performing such mischief. Na ture has not endowed it with the capacity. It has no grinders and therefore caisot mas ticate corn. Its food is the worm and grub, and we venture to say, if the friend of the Watchman destroys the moles, his corn Gelds will suffer more than ever before. The moles burrow through the ground, and the field mice and rats follow in his track, and con . sume whatever suits their voracious appetites. Let the gentleman who complains of the moles get some ratabane, and exterminate these vermin, and assist the moles to destroy the grubs, and he will not longer complain of their eating his corn. Bhoil any one ha skeptical upon this subject, let him catch a mole and examine *his eth, and theu he wiU he asf~ed he saWI looik .klwhuu fbr his enemy. IMPROVE YOUR ,NDSO THE ftllowing statements will be found correct as to soils long under cultivation: 1. All land on which clover or the grasses are grown, must either have lime - in them naturally, or that mineral must be artificial ly supplied: It matters but little whether it be supplied in the form of stone lime, oyster lime or marl. 2. All permanent improvements on lands must look to lime as its basis. 3. Lands which have long been in culture, will be benefitted by the application of phios phate of lime, and it is unimportant whether the deficiency be supplied in the formo of bone dust, guano, native phosphate of lime, composts of flesh, ashes or that of oyster shell lime-or marl-if the land need lime alone. 4. No lands can be preservedin a high state of fertility, unless clover and the grasses are cultivated in the course of rotation, 5. Mould is indespensible in every soil, and a healthy supply can alone be preserved through the cultivation of clover, and the ap plication of composts rich in the elements of the mould. 6. All highly concentrated animal manures are increased in value, and their benefits pro. longed by admixture with plaster, salt, or with pulverized charcoal. 7. Deep plowing -greatly improves the productive powers of every variety of soil that is not wet. 8. Subsoiling sound land, that is land that is not wet, is also eminently conducive to increased production. 9. All wet land should be drained. 10. All grain crops should be harvested before the grain is thoroughly ripe. 11. Clover, as well as the grasses intend. ed for hay, should be moved when in bloom. 12. Sandy lands can be most effectually improved by clay. When such lands re quire liming or marling, the lime or marl is most beneficially applied when made into ompost with clay. In slacking lime, salt brine is better than water. IBER OF TREES OR PLNTS ON AN ACRE. Table showing the number of Trees required b plant an acre of ground, from one tofifty feet apart. Feet. Trees.

OUR RECIPE FOR CURING MEAT.-TboSe who will carefully adopt our method of curing pairk and beef will be enabled to en joy as fine hams, tongues, " dried beef" and rounds, as the Emperor of all the Russias can command, always providing that the meat cured is of the best quality. It is this: To one gallon of water, - Take one and a half lbs. of salt, Half lb. of sugar, Half oz. of saltpetre, Half oz. of potash. In this ratio the pickle to be increased to any quantity desired. Let these be boiled together, until all the dirt from the sugar (which will not be a little) rises to the top and is skimmed off. Then throw it into a tub to cool, and when cold, pour it over your beef orspork, to remain the usual time; say four or five weeks. The meat must be well covered with pickle,~ and .should not be put down for at least two days after killing, during which time it should be slightly sprinkled with powdered saltpetre. Several of our friends have. omitted the boiling of the pickle and found it to answer equally as weljl. It will not, however, an swer guite so well. By boiling the pickle it is purgfied-for the amount of dirt which is thrown off by the operation, from the salt and sugar, would surprise one not acquaint ed with the fact.-Germantown Telegraph. Busur YOUR ToMATOLs.-lt is just as sen ible to grow peas without bushing them as it is tomatoes. You cray grow both -in a slovenly sort of way, if you have plenty of room on the ground; but you can grow either twice as well upon something to sup. port them, and tomatoes are decidedly bet ter grown up in the air than the ground, under the shade of a mass of vines. . The best support for a tomato vine is a short bush set firmly in the ground. The branches have room to spread among the limbs and support the fruit. The plan is much better than tying to stakes and trimming, accord ing to our experience. We have tried both ways.-Agricultural Exchange. SPARE TUE QUAILs.--Every farmer is acquainted with this bird, though few are aware of their usefulness in ridding the land of noxious plants, such as thistles, docks, &c. During the early summer, before any grain is matured, this little bird is to be seen gleaning its food from among the weeds fast ripening along with the crops, and which would otherwise prove,- a source of incaleu lable annoyance. When we consider that each full-grown bird consumes a gill of seed a day, we can imagine of how much service they in reality are. Audubon, the great ornithologist of America, conclusively proves their useful. ness to the husbandman. T1he sportsmen well know that it is useless to beat for quail in a country overgrown with weeds. How much, then, does it behoove farmers to make some protection for so useful a bird, when they are unable to provide for themselves, and are beset on all sides by the snaresand trap-guns of the rascally poacher.-Airi can Agriculturist. Fuw persons appear to be aware either of the extent of the 6ultivation of Indian corn, of its great value to this county. The .cen. sue returns of 1850 liz the amount of Indian corn grown in the year ending June 31st, 1850, at five hundred and ninety-two millions seventy-one thousand one hundred and four bushels. This crop, in quantity produced and value, far exceeds that of any other ag ricultural product, and is so generally diffus ed that there is not a district of country, and hardly a farm or plantation, which does not cultivate it to a greater or less extent. The value of the crop of 1850, our last reliable data, at an average of fifty cents per bushel, would amonnt tn 6298,05.552. AMERICAN WINE.-A correspondent of the Nashville Patriot gives the following sug. gestive facts touching the capability of* Ten nessee to become an important wine produ cing district. The experiments already made go to demonstrate that no branch of agri. culture is likely to be so remunerating as this; so much so. that the attention of our farmers has been generally drawn- to the subject, and the number of vineyards is rap idly increasing in that State. "Mr. Camuse, a native of France, an en thusiastic wine grower, and thoroughly vers ed in all the mysteries of wine growing,- has given the subject a fair test, and I am happy to say, has produced a wine not inferior in delicacy of flavor, or in its healthy and happy efflect upon the system, to the most celebrated wines of Europe. I am informed by M. Camuse that a thousand gallons per acre is the ordinary yield of a well cultiva ted vineyard in Tennessee, and that so fa vorable is the climate to its growth that a failure of the crop need hardly ever be feared." FLoWERS.-" April showers make May flowers," and now is the time to plant the hundreds of beautiful little annuals. None the less beautiful because cheap and com mon. Annual flower seeds should be sowed quite shallow, and if the weather prove dry, water them until the seeds have sprouted ; as soon as they have become large enough to work, thin them out judiciously: they cannot bloom well if crowded together. The blooming of annuals may be hastened by frequently watering the plants with guano water; a gill of guano to one gallon of water. The same application may be ap plied to rose bushes, after the bud has form ed, taking care to loosen the ground around the bush with a fork, that the liquid may soak in about the roots. It will give also an immense bloom to the peony, if applied after the flower buds have formed. Flowers, to bloom well, should be frequently worked, and the ground kept clear of weeds and grass. It any plant is worth cultivating, it is worth cultivating well.-Soil of the South. SINGLE WHITE MACARTNEY RosE.--Judg ing from some specimens of this fine Rose, planted for the pupose of forming a hedge, which we have seen, it is likely to be more useful than the well known Cherokee Rose, and mainy because it does not die out at the bottom and open a passage for hogs, like the last named plant. Its ever green leaves are smaller and somewhat darker than those of its Cherakee name sake; its thorns equally or more abundant and formidable; while its dense habit of growth renders its quite indispensible; and it is not less hardy and easily propagated. Set four feet apart, it forms a close hedge in three years, although less straggling than the Cherokee, which spreads to an undesirable extent.-Southern Cultivator. CUT TUmS Ovr.-A correspondent of the London Liteary Gazette, alluding to the numepous cases of deaths from accidental poisoning, adds: " I venture to affirm there is scarce even a cottage in this country that does not cottain an invaluable, certain, im mediate remedy for such events; nothing more than a dessert spoonial of made nmus tard, mixed in a tumbler of warm water, and drank in~iediately. It acts as an emetic, is alwtays ready, and may be used with safety in any case where one is required. By making this simple antidote known you may be the means of saving many a fellow crea ture from an untimely end." STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA, EDGEFlIELD DISTRICT, IN COMMON PL EAS. S.
