Caution suggested is this W \hair
the ground is frozen hard, and ther<
is snow on it, do not apply this rav
nanuro to very steep side hills
lest its virtues ntty be carried of

to kaep it away from thoground, oni
in very rare instances will the m;

come. A little good downon sens
will decide ats to this point. Thi
bn.Aits derived by grass lAnds from

Tho first effoet that will be observe4
will be the greatly increased crop o
grass, above ground, and the eartl

Our coltiwnt are open to all for a free
dlisission of any prihoiple, theor) or idal
but we are in no way rosponsiblo for tie views
or.opiniois of correspondents.
a What th a Lerilature Dii, and What it
Left Undone.
To sum up mbat was done by lie
late Legilature, so far as the pnblic
weal is concerned, Is a work easily
f accomplished. The only important
bills passed were those repealing the
General License Liaw, repealing the
r Blue Ridge Bond Scrip Act, abd the
one ratifying the amendment to the
i Coistitution, prohibiting an increase
a of the State debt without the appro.
val of the people. -These embrace all
the legislation of a public character
that was enacted, do fat- as out pres
ent knowledge goos, and furnish a sd
commentary upon the ability and oa
pacity of persons pr'etending to make
laws for an educated and enlightened
n people. We are not disposed to
j withhold from the General Assembly
I any coninioudation to Which It may
0 uvae been etitlud fur the passage of
the above mentioned bills. At the
s-ino time we purpose calling atten
tion to what it neglsoted to do, in
furtheranoe of the-interest. of the
State at large. We regard it espe
oially blameable for failing to legi'
Slts intelligibly upon the financial
- ondition of the Stateb. This asubjet
r is deoidedly the most itportant one
that could have been agitated1, bot;It
Sappeare to hate been badly neglocted,
-' not to bay treated with utter Indiffe-r
e enee. Ih'r this we arraign the ma.
jority of the Legislatute for a betray
al of the~iohadenoe erdposed in them
t bf their constIttueney,. ThaetdredIt of
a he St ate is still left it' rcro'
condition by puch nogilot, and its vI.
tality joopatdised. . .
There are other mattefs, almnost6:of
equal imitortanoo as .the fitiance mat
-ter, that shud~ beebettende4d to.
But the members of the General As
sembly found.othdr wayssto, amnso
aoteelves tfa'by legislating fot the
.good of the pebId. The Iargh ma
s jorit~y offthen contribute brit .little
tqward qarrying on the governwmep4,
and oonsequently feel little or n6;,ii
Sterekl as to how the taxes arvspd
I provided they got the nmdst of thotn.
WVe regret, that'we have to say this,
* bot candow.and regard for the truth
forces It fromt us. The above is osur
i' erdiut, one In which we believe tho
eb wole people fully colnclde. We in
