THE FR1NDS OF LONG AGO. When 1 sit iu the twilight gleaming, Ami tlio busy streets grow still, I dreaui of the wide green ine&dow, And the old house on the hill, I cau see the roses blooming About the doorway low, And again my heart gives greeting To the friends of long age? Dear long ago I I can see my mother, setting, With life's snovrtiakes in her hair, And she smiles above her knitting, And her face is saintly fair; Ana i see my lather reading, From the Bible on his knee, An<l again 1 hear hitn praying As he used to pray for ino? 80 long ago ! 1 see all the dear old faces, Of the boys and girls at home, As 1 saw them in the dear old days, Before we learned to roam. As 1 sing the old songs over With the friends I used to know, Aud my heart forgets its sorrows In its drcatn of long ago? Dear long ago ! How widely our feet hare wandered From the old home's tender ties; Some are beyond the ocean And some beyond the skies ; My heart's grown sad with'tUinking " N Of the friends 1 used to know, Perhaps 1 shall meet ill heaven All the loved of long ago? Dear long ago! DEATH BV S. T. WALK Kit. I stand by the brink of the River, The River of Death, so droar, Ana i iook on us waves, una sntver, Appalled with a mortal fear. But list ! Who is crossing the water? 'Tis Jesus, my Messed Lord. "Fear not, 1 am with llicc, my daughter." 1 hear IIis sweet, loving word My hand in his His hand He taketli, i step in the swelling tide, But light o'er (he Kiver breaketh, And 1 see the farther side. A moment?the passage is over, At the pearly gat* 1 stand ; It opens wide for my Saviour, And we enter hand in hand. iV. Observer. for the Times. A NEW DEPARTURE. Mr. Kiutor :?1 would like to know what our friends, "I'acolct" or the "Old Farmer" thinks of the now progrumc of the State Agricultural and Mechanical Society. Col. Aikca seems rather to like the idea, lie says : "Any otic who has had any experience with Fairs, knows that people can't be got together without unusual attractions." Well, I have thought of a great many ways to tinln m.t n r.ii> \1.,T.. 1.1 ? ?!.?. ??"? '*"1? llelginn (Jiant, the Hoarded woman, Tom Thumb, . Punch..au J.

Howard, Horse Pacing and Ciander Pulling?but the idea of a Military Drill is something that never entered my head. One thousand dollars offered in Premiums, by the Stale Agricultural and Mechanical Society, for the best drilled Military Companies! tioodnes*alive! Haveu't, we had enough of the military for a century! I thought j the whito winged messenger was now to be our emblem?not grim Mars, with his improved implements of destruction, the car, piercing fife, the spirit stirring drum, and ull the pomp and pageantry of war. Is there anything new in iliis? Why, if they wanted to create a sensation, and draw the back country, didn't they get up a Firemen's Parade ? Very few of us have ever seen anything of the kind, and it would li&vo beer, a treat and much more in keeping with Agricultural and Mechanical subjects than military drills. ^And, as Firemen are notoriously aggressive, we'might have got up an elegant row into the bargain. Water is plenty in Columbia, and a house or two, might have been set on tire for the purpose of testing the skill of Amateurs. With all deference for the opinion of other gentleman, I cannot see the propriety of introducing such features into an Agricultural Exhibition. If you want to draw a big crowd together for social enjoyments, for the beuefit cf the hotel keepers, saloons, grog shops, gambling houses aed merchants, of Columbia, it is all well enough, and everything that will create a sensation is admissible; but if you want to improve our Agricultural and Mechanical interests, if the object is to throw light where there is darkness, and to show the old fogies and young beginners how to make two blades of gruss grow where only one grew before, and your mechanics to learn how labor may be saved by tho use of improved implements, this is not the way to go about it. I have attended a good many Fairs, and I nin eorry to say the horse racing was more attractive to the mass, than the finest specimens of needle werk, painting, machinery or Agricultural I in - ptemenls. 1 have seen the whole crowil break away from the ring when the horses were on exhibition, to see a scrub race on the other side of the fence. Horse racing has broken down ery Fair at the North or West, where it has been indulged in. It draws the wrong sort of people together; and all sober, moral religious people will, in thecnd, become disgusted and turn their backs upon such demoralizing exhibitions. If Agriculturists and Mechanics cannot be drawn together for the purpose of mutual improvement without the demoralizing influence of these rare, exhibitions attending them, the sooner they are given up tho better for all classes of society. It is manifest that there is something radically wrong, and I am inclined to agree with "Our Old Farmer" that the intelligence of the agriculturist is at fault, and that if a tithe of the money spent upon horse racing, military drills and all that, were spent in diffusing information of the light sort among the people, the progress of improvement would soon he up ward and onward. HAKLRY. PREPARING FOR WHEAT BOWING. "Sufficient time is uot suffered to elapse between plowing for wheat and seeding, to admit of that packiug of the soil and preliminary decomposition of crude vegetable matter which on most soils is au iudispeusable prerequisite to a good wheat crop." The above scntcnco summarizes tho experience of our most successful wheat growers. 1 do not doubt that on tho rich, mucky soils of western prairies, this "packing" and "preliminary decomposition of crude vegetable matter" are even more important diao here. For very many years Western NewYork farmers thought summer fdlowing was uecessary to insure a good wheat crop Now \Vi> irpf. nnifA ne ?r*?rwl wlwo?t o >/*? K??v ? i b""u "llv"" ? ?*> uui ley and potatoes. Wc havo learned, b) experience, that it is the decomposition ol vegetable matter and the consequent "firm ing" of the soil which are of the most iui portauce, which the summer fallow accoui plishes. The farmer who leaves his fallow to be overgrown with a uiass of weeds, ami then turus these under just before seeding makes the soil so light that it will absorl an immense amount of water. The result is that such fields will not produce as good wheat crops as well managed stubble or corn and potato ground. Hut for the difficulty in getting off hoed crops iu time they would almost always be followed directly by wheal instead of succeeding an intervening oat 01 barley crop. Very many farmers do cleai their fields of early Irish potatoes 111 time for wheat seeding, an4 if the ground is right in other respects, they seldom fail ol good yield. Hoed crops "laid by" early in July, have time to become firm before wheat sowing time?especially with corn. Wc find here that old wheat soils have become deficicut iu mineral elements, pnr ticulnrly phosphate and lime. Potash in the form of ashes and soda in coarse salt, arc also very important; and dressings of 100 to 300 pounds of these, drilled in with the seed, produce a remarkablo effect. I suspect that lack of sonic of these elements is the cause of western failures in wheatgrowing. Illinois farmers boast < f the inexhaustible fcrtililitv of* their deen black soil. No doubt it is rich enough iu carbonaceous matter?rich enough for gross feeding plants like corn and oats; but if it fails to grow other grains, it shows a defect somewhere, and it is the duty of Illinois farmers to experiment until they discover what the deficiency is. In some place: spring wheat succeeds, while winter wheat, except in favorable seasons, fails. Here, probably, the failure is due to severe or wet winters, and the mechanical coudition ol the soil; but we find here on such land: that the wheat plant will live, if the soil abounds in mineral elements uecded to make a good crop. Iu other words, to repeat a phrase heretofore used in this correspondence, wheat will live in very bad seasons provided there is anything it can live for if the roots find littleowcouragomunt in the soil, the plant quickly dies. I do not udervalue the rich masses ol vegetable matter in the western prairies, often from one to six or more feet in depth. They are of immense importance to western farmers. They are mines whence he can draw inexhaustible supplies of corn, pork, beef and mutton. If iu addition they can grow large crops of wheat, by the use of a trifling amount of mineral manures, it will add immensely to their wealth. Fining the land by the use of the roller and drag, and draining it by open furrows at suitable dis tanees, will put the soil in the proper mechanical condition. Probably a libjral use of quicklime would be a double advantage ?decomposing more rapidly the surplus humus, and adding one of the most important mineral elements of the plant. The experiments with lime, potusli, phosphates and salt, should ho made on a small scale at first. The roller is more useful in preparing wncai grnunu mail any other implement.? There is little danger of getting the ground too solid. Drill in the seed as shallow as you can cover it, and leave the ground unrolled for winter rains and snows to smooth the drill marks.?W. ?J. R in Cultivatoi Country Gentleman. o THE U8E OF 80RQHUM Steadily hicreasiny, lleiny tin; Mont Profitable Cro]> for the Farmer. At no time since the introduction of sorghum into this country has its favor with the public been so great as it is at present. No crop will bring so much money per acre to the farmer as a crop of s ?rgo eauo.? Taking an average of the crops in South Carolina, wo find that with? Wheat, 8 bus. perncre, at $2, gives $1(1 Corn, 8 - $1, " 8 Oats, 10 " 50c. " ? Cotton, .'5 acres to a bale, at l?c. " 11 Sorghum, 04 gals, to the acre, at 50c., gives, -i'2 From the above we find the profit of sorghum twice as great as that of wheat and cotton and four times as great as that of corn and oa's. There are facts which cannot bo disputed and do not deceive. ' Sorghum is easily grown and manufactured, and the syrup is always good for the table* Sorgo cane wiil grow ou the poorest laud and rc quire less work than almost any crop planted VVu are clad to state that the farmers huur their eyes open as regards sorgo iCane, and some have made cuough 'molasses to lasl them until the next crop shall be gathered The syrup should be made in an improved evaporator, wheu it will be as clear as New Orleans syrup. If made in the ordinary iron boiler, it is usually black.?M. K.

OATS?CLOVER. Editor Southern Cultivator.?S. 1 A. C., p. 331, gives uu excellent article on ' oats, and worthy of our attention. Oats is 1 the crop for at least the cotton belt?cheaper and better food for our teams. The old folks tell mo that coru is necessary to give strength. .So I heard a young mau say in day % and that a uegro man should 1 have jjV*3f bacou sides each dny and his 1 peck ini.r a half of nieal. Others think whiskey is a great help iu log rolliug and 1 in rcapiug. 1 admit work can bo had by a skillful head than with whiskey, but over! tax for one or two days will produce a col -lapse. But, I am for uo whiskey for man, - and none for uiy liorso, even iu a crude state. ! I began writing to stand by S. A. C., in his closing sentence of second paragraph : "It is not wise, however, to be dogmatic iu rofercuce to agricultural matters," &c. Ho ' says he has becu a close "observer aud stu' deut of oat culture lor scvernl years." I <* will say I have. hern Jor 40 years, and try> ing all the varieties 1 could get, too, but not ^ on all varieties of land. I have passed I through Millcdgovillc, Ga., and seen much ' of Georgia, and bog d. A. G. to set ou rich river land a crop of oats, 4 bushels sown on I the lawd-tlter corn or cotton?no seed not ' ploughed in, no phosphate, and then his experience will be enlarged. So far as I know the South, it is the rule to sow oats ! ou poorest laud. This crop is not given a fair chance. I have had in days past and ' gone, 100 or more acres yearly, and have 1 sceu them staud up still 5 J'ect high.? 1 liichcr laud requires the more seed, or the oat will blow down aud lodge. ! Great good has been effected, and I trust much more will yet be accomplished. L am passiug dowu, and cau't reasonably exi peel to do much more, yet always desirous of trying to do, aud at least cheering those who nro able. I see you recommend California clover 1 Will auy stock cat it if any other food is in roach ? 1 have seen a horse pick out blades, so to say, of Bermuda, and not take a bite of it. I had uiuch of it, in an open aud a Woods-ffctottui'ti t fiOlinliirtnil it i?m ivf n? ' further thau as a covering and a help in 1 1 fertilizing land. It grew readily on poor ' > land, aud amazingly on rich land. I would 1 1 not give an acre of orchard grass for 100 ' of the yellow clover. No doubt the orch- \ ' ard will bo a good pasture, on good land 1 and uuder proper treatment, for 10 to 150 1 years. Of course so valuable a grass for ' all the year, would pay to keep it in high- ( est fertility, Rut 1 have had it growing ' ' ou poor rod clay?not all gone. VEKBUM SAT. 1 North anu Soutii.?

( In (he great recuperation that is ahead of ( us, the south will he foremost. You may < depend upon this comparison." ( ... , A good joke is told of a certain Dutch- 1 man who was solicited to insure his wife's -1 1 life, and his reasons for refusing were as j follows: "Veil, Mistier Agent, I doles you ! sumdiks about dos oushuruncc h.esncss*?

FALL PLANTING OF GRAIN. Wlieu the ground oan bo worked, our hrtners should bo giving their attention to ho fall planting of grasses and grain.? irass should bo sowed as early as possible, ['he sooner the hotter Out* hnrlov nml ye should all be sowed during September, f possible, though October and Noveuibor owings will do. Wheat should be sowed it October or November and the ground ihould be prepared as soon as possible, so is to allow time for it to settle. Wheat cfiuires a compact soil. The richer the ground can be made for ill of these grains the better. None of ilieni do well ou poor grouud. The more lianuro the farmer cau give theui the bet;er results will follow. A good plan is to lividc the manure, using a part at planting, ;o give the grain a vigorous start, and in lie spring finish the manuring. Atmuoniited manures arc best for grain. Cotton iced i? one of the best fertilizers. The writer last year planted wheat Oc;ober 5th, and November 7th. The first ivheat did best. An expeditious way of lrilling wheat is to open twelve-inch furrows, with a shovel, and broadcast the fertilizer and wheat over it, and then break the middle with the same shovel, which throws the manure and-grain into the furrows pretty evenly. The Western farmers irery generally adopt this plan, when they lo not use the grain drill. In the spring, :he use of the harrow oVer the young wheat, md the broadcasting of one hundred pounds to mo acre ot nitrate ot soda, will have a magical cH'oct on the wheat, giving a woulerl'ul growth, and a rich grecu color. Last year the oats sowed in tho fall were very much thinned out by the freezes. The writer sowed oats three times. On the 12th >f September the rust proof oat was sowed in the cotton, plowing in with a sweep.? flic cotton was planted in a young orchard, the tree rows growing thick iu the grass.? These oats were all killed, except in the tree rows, where th iv grew finely. The next planting was on the 2Gth of October, if winter grazing oats, in a piece of ground that had laid id^e all the year and was covered heavily with grass and weeds. The oround was broken with a turn plow, ana tho oats towed ou the rough, cloddy ground, and plowed in with the same turn plow. These aits all lived and turned out finely. The bird sowing was ou the 13th of November, in ground '.hat had been planted in ground peas, and which was perfectly clean and thoroughly pulverized from culture ard Jigging. These oats were planted in this way : First, a bushol of oats to the acre was flowed in with a scooter, and then another sushel of oats sowed over the same acre ind harrowed in. These oats came up tiney, but were cntiarly winter killed. The most successful oat raiser in the State s a Mr. Rose, of Upsou county, who got ibout 125 bushels from an acre, lie plowed d.a<;)> and close, made his ground rery rich, and sowed four bushels of s.-cd :o the acre. He grazed half a dozen head if cattle on it from November to March. This will show what can be done. 1ft.. _ll ? - ' ity an means jet me lanncrs hurry up he oat planting as fast as possible. One >f the very best fertilizers fur oats is, one lumlrcd pounds of nitrate of soda, broadcasted in the spring, when the oats are ibout twelve inches high. Wo have doubled our crop by this application.?Gcorgitt Graiit/':. - Wurn to Sow Oats.?Winter oats sown n October are positively certain to make a ;ood crop, while those sown in Spring canint be relied upon. The Winter varieties illcr to au equal extent with barley, thus, cquiring less seed than the Spring varieties, which tiller very little, no matter when they ire seeded. Those sowed in the Fall acjuire such an extent of root-surface that hey easily withstand the freezes of Winter >r the drouths of Spring. If oats arc harvested when the grain is u the douh, stock will do full work on ,hoin in the Summer, and fatten, without sither corn or fodder. Land that will proluce ten bushels of corn per acre, will yield ,wenty bushels of oats. Au acre of corn ;osts just three times the labor that is required lbr one of oats. The corn requires ittcution at the bisicst season, while all the labor expended upon oats, excepting the nurvesting, may be given at a sensuu of comparative Icishre. Corn is a humus destroying crop, whilo jats produce material for humus in the stub?l<>. and aftergrowth of.

Five or ten acres to the plow, seeded in outs in the Fall would emancipate cottonplauters from their dependence upon tho West, and cnablo liicui to make more cotton than they .1. 1 iL. a a -i. _ 1 a* no uuuer mu present system 01 pluming twenty five or thirty times more acres in corn than are seeded in oats.

A weekly journal, devoted to the interest of Judui8in and lluinanity, Art, Science, Literature and general Information. The establishment of a Southern Jewish Journal in tho interest of Judaism and the dissemination of its truths, would, we think, he no superfluous addition to the list of journals of liko character issued at liio North and West. I ying therefore on the encouragement of our coi e'ligionista in general anil on the support of our Southern brethren and friends in particular, wo have decided to venture upon this AVir Southern Enterprise, aud shall, about the first week iu September, present for the favorable consideration of (he public. Tlic Southern Hebrew, combining nil requisites necossnry for carrying on an instructive and interesting journal, it shall he our aim to submit a paper, replete with all that is calculated to engross the attention of those eager to welcome and entertain such a visitor to the home circle. Under able innnngeinenl in all departments, with the aid of ministers, teachers and the untive talent of others iti this section of tlio country, we hope to make this journal a valuable adjunct to the Synngogue nnd tho religious school. A hearty '-God speed" has already been given us, and fresh impetus to our energy, which is deeply gratifying to tho Jgl laborers in the vineyard. The Hebrew will be tho orgnn of no special class, nor will any particular shade of opinion bo advocated in its columns, but shall cheerfully endorse the right and the truth whencesoever .
