~ " : "~ . Lime and Salt, Prof. Johnson recommends for fer tilizing purposes, to mix 1 bushel salt and 2 bushels dry lime under cover, and allow the mixture to decompose gradually, thus forming an intimate chemical unison of the two materials. For this purpose the mixture should be at least 6 weeks before use, br, still better, 2 or 3 'months, the heap mentioned being turned over occa sionally. This salt and lime mixture, when applied at the rate of 20 or 30 bushels per acre, forms an excellent topdressing for many crrps. "It acts powerfully on Hie vegetable matter of soils : "56 bushels applied to a tur nip field have prod need a's lair-- n crop as barnyard mannro". Tri- ilso very destructivo to insects ai I grubs in soil.

Salt and plaster mixed are also said to be a very good top-dressing on some, while on others they, do no good. Plaster does well on .some soils and is worthless on others. The same is also', true of both lime and salt, as it is of most other commercial fertilizers. Let these facts be c.-ire fully healed by farmers and gar deners. From the Ocala (Fla,) Banner.

HORACE GREELY. If there ever was a time for the your g' men of the country to show of what material they are made, that time is no w upon us. The enforcement of the emancipation policy at the close of the late disastrous war, added pecuni ary to political ruin. Splendid es tates, the accumulated - earnings of generations of economy, industry and skill', have, by a simple proclamation of th'e President, " taken to them selves wings and flown to the utmost parts." Distinguished families, long known and honored for their culture,' talents,and splendidhospitality, have seen their hundred slaves liberated, , their broad fields lying waste, and their style reduced from opulence to rigid simplicity. Old men, with heavy and sorrowful hearts, mourn the loss of their sons and grand sons fallen in the great struggle. The days of their youth and manhood have in vain been sA->ent in labor and toil, and a dreary and comfortless old age is their only reward. Their habits form ed, their labors lost, and their slaves free and impudent. To such, life is indeed cheerless, and their forlorn condition would extort a tear of sym pathy from the most obdurate. Much allowance should'be made when such persons worry and vex themselves at the times, and show great impatience and irritability at the freedmen. . Xonc of these alleviating circum stances apply to the young. "Phos" young men who have escaped the perils of ihe war with whole limbs and sound constitutions, and whose souls are inspired with true "d no ble principles and aims, have in prospect a glorious future. WI ; ' i prospect fortin* w irking yout?g men .' The Josses aud ravag?s ol' die v.;.. have, in a greai measure, obliterated the caste and distinctions of society. This fact will become more apparent in a few years than it is now. Men, henceforth? will bc esteemed, not for wi it their fathers have done forthem, i nit for what they doter themselves :;n3 their country." And what better snd nobler deed can they do, than . ty hold of the ar and plough, and aid in repairing tim waste and ravages of the v.*ar? If every young man . in Florida would go at one- r-> work, and thus encourage the freedmen to work. leading them forward and set ting thom the example, our country would soon he redeemed and disen thralled. The waste-places would be built r.p, and the tieMs again smile with the rich harvests. Fin* unen cumbered estates would so"ii bo nc quired. and our people become abie to exhibir their prestine culture and hospitality. A solvent, enterprising and industrious aristocracy . won ' soon spring up, to honor and -! labor, and infuse in!'? the -..i spirit bl '?uaepend?nce and virru This most .desirable end eVn bc cou passed by honoring every . m-re ti. industrious laborer. AU persons o: influence and position should mark the idle, insist upo:i his going to work to help himself and family and his country. When such persist in indo lence and loafing, brand him with in famy and social di-grace ! Warn and caution your daughters against such, though they display the beauties of Apollo, and dress with the taste and elegance of a gay Lothario. The scavenger on the streets, if he be in dustrious and honest, should be es teemed above any idler, of however great pretensions. Honor everywhere the industri?os, honest laborer. Al ways put him infinitely above loafers and loungers 'about bar rooms and hotels. The young ladies in particular could do much good. They should bestow their sweetest smiles upon the hard working, honest man, whatever be his condition. They should shun, With ine:?able scorn, everyidling tup ater. They should go farther. They should give their. hearts and hands to the peor, honest laborer, in prefer-, ence to the' extravagant, penniless loafer. Until the laborer receives his just honors and rewards," and the idler his merited derision and . :orn, ? our land will be afflicted wii-u an idle, indolent^ and vicious population.

Labov, both for 1 finid and the house, has been, si] the war, notoriously unreliable. 1 employers have much to do with it The practice of seducing good s .vants away from their employi is too common, and it works per ciously. A'family gets a good s vant. Liberal wages are paid, th< is mutual satisfaction, and *11 g< well. An envious neighbor, with J tact to manage help, goes to work . get away-the coveted servant. Ei ry secret means is adopted-higl wages offered, the servant's mi poisoned against the employed tales of abusive language, and diss; isfaction planted by irrsttlling wro: notions ot work.

DEN PLANTS.-Many .periods, par ticularly 'ladies, dislike to use the ordinary .fertilizer . from th? barn or poultry yard, on flowers .and other house plants. " One' who ?hows," sends the foifowing, which is good not only tot'stimulate house plants, but for out-door plants 'of almost ev? ery kind. . " Dissolve one-half to three-quarter ounres of sulphate bf ammonia .(ob tained che?ply at the d??g^rst's*) in one gallon of water. Apply it only once a week,- and then only to grow ing plants. It may be used with great benefit on beds of strawberries, on peas, on dwarf pears, grape-vines, danlias, and for all kinds of pelt-plants. This mixture increases the size of the foliage of plants, and gives a dark, shining green color. The flowers also are improved in proportion. And,, not least important, this fertilizer will do no harm. One Way of Improving Land. . Lt perhaps has occurred to but few farmers to eftploy, the roving herds of Summer at manme-making. It may be done thus : Select a spot adjoining an outside fence, and enclose it well on the three remaining sides. Haul leaves from the woods, muck from, . ponds or ewamps^or anything that will rot into a good manure in ten or twelve months, and spread over this lot three c r four . inches deep. If there are not several trees in, this lot, make Sjh?lter??r -shade by placing poles ?jpn fork?, putting a floor of rails" [across th^se.poles, and coyer thifijdy^ with pine lags.

A corresbondent of the Huh-al iV\ u Yorker, furnishes that , journal with his and his - friend's ideas as to the best breeds of Poultry, feeding, clean liness and care of houses. He says : In a recent conversation with a few friends, the'question., was asked, " What breed of fowls are now tak ing the preference ?" This broadsid ed question is often asked-broadsid ed, because we may as consistently ask what breed of horses are the best, without specifying whether we want draft horses or old trotters. vVe, Yankee fashion, undertook to reply to the inquiry by asking. ,?For what particular purpose? For lay ing, sitting, for market, winter lay ers, summer layers, or do you want a fowl possessing all the good qualities, without any bad ones ?" " Yes, all combined," was the re Now no one individual possesses all of the graces. Each one is blessed with more or less, hut' no one with all of them.

It-is a golden rule that over feeding is a much more fruitful source of disease and failure in poultry keep ing than all. other causes combined.

[London Correspondence, June 17th, Now York - Times.] What might be called a very tall wedding came off to-day at St. George's Church, close to Trafalgar Square.

Digestion becomes painless, and the core is seen to be at hand. There is no more flatulence, no exacerbation of tue stomach. An appetite sets in.

The second thing is, tho patients must stay in's worm room until they get well; It is almost Impos sible to pr? vent taking cold when the lungB are dis eased, but lt must be prevented or a cor? can not bs effected. Fresh air and riding out, especially in this section, of the country, ia the fall and winter pea son, are all wrong. Physicians who recommend that conree lose their patients, if their lungs are badly diseased; and yet, because they are tn the house they must not sitdown quiet; theymnstwalk about the room as much and astutas th? strength will bear, to get up a good circulation of blood. The patients must keep in good spirits-be determined to get well. This nas a great deal to ?lo with the appetite, and la the great point to gam. To despair of cure after such evidence of its po*-?

It seemed to me that I could feel them penetrate my whole system. They soon ripened the matter in my' lungs, and I would spit up more than ?pint of offen sive y Jowmatter every morning for a long time. "As soon as that began to subside, my cough, . fever ? al ns, and nigh ts weat? all beean to leave ma, and LIV appetite became so great that lt vris with alfa cutty that I could keep from eating too much. I soon gained my strength, and have grown in flesh ever since.
