Under tho old system of cultivation at tlie South, where a newly cleared fiold at once took the place of one that was worn oat, and where the idea ot manuring was almost entirely ignored, it is not surpris? ing that tlio manner in which crops suc? ceeded each other, was determined almost wholly by convenience. At present, how? ever, when heavy manuring, thorough culture, and bringing land to its greatest productive capacity, is the order of the day, it is eminently fit and proper, that the subject of rotation of crops should seriously engage the attootion of our far? mers?and we earnestly invite discussions of it in tbe Cultivator. Certain advantages from changing crops on the same land from year to year, are obvious to every one?as for instance, sowing down in small grain after clean feulture, protects tbe land from washing, and restores in part tbe vegetable matter exhausted by a crop, plowed and hoed daring tbe summer; or, on the other band, where land has been sown continu? ously for several years, a crop under tho plow nd hoe, destroys pestiferous weeds like cockle. Besides these incidental ef? fects, however, there are other circum? stances, connected with tho productive ca? pacity of land, which aro worthy of j consideration. If all plants bad the same habits of growth, and took from tho soil the same ingredients in tbe same proportion, then, aside from the considerations already mentioned, it would probably make little difference if the same crop was cultivated on the same field from year to year. But the supposition made is not true. Many weeds thrive on lands which will not sus? tain our cultivated plants; a fine growth of rag-weed often follows a miserable crop of wheat?corn grows better after cotton than after corn, &c, &c. Theso are-'the facts?what is tho explanation t The old theory was, that plants discharged from their roots a kind of excrementitious matter,, which, whilst injurious to the plant that excreted it, was not so to other Jlants.. This is not, however, supported y any well ascertained facts, and is gen? erally discarded by the best observers. Neither is such' a supposition necessary. As regards habits of growth, cultivated plants may bo divided into two classes: 1st. Those with long tap roots, as peas, clover, cotton, &c.j 2d. Thoso with nume? rous fine, fibrous roots, as corn, wheat, barley, rye, and the grasses proper. Tho former send a largo portion of their roots deep into tho soil and subsoil, and draw their food largely from these lower depths ?the roots of the latter are chiefly con? fined to the upper layers of soil, from which they take their supplies. One can readily see, therefore, that whilst several crops of small grain might exhaust the upper soil too much for another crop of the same kind to succeed well after them, the deeper layers of soil and the subsoil may still be rich enough to sustain a good erop of peas, &c. In overy rotation, therefore, some fibrous-rooted and some tap-rooted plants should enter. In tho next place, it is fully established that some plants draw more largely on the soil for certain ingredients than others do. Wheat, for instance, requires an un? usually large proportion of nitrogeneous matter, turnips of phosphates, peas of potash, &c. A soil may, therefore, bo. too much exhausted of nitrogen to yield a good crop of wheat, and yet have enough with the potash loft to make a good crop of peas?different plants thus playing, as it wore, into each other's hands, and by a judicious rotation, full crops ot different plants may bo reaped, for sevoral years in suecession. It is quite generally thought, that where land does not wash, cotton may bo- raised upon it, year after year, without prejudice to tbe crop. The expe? dience of Mr. Ed. Bancroft, of this place, does not sustain the above viow, and as hjs farming operations are conducted with great care and accuracy, his conclusions aro entitled to great consideration. Wo hope to have an article from him for our next number.?Southern CidtivatoT. ? Life is short! The poor pittance of J seventy years is not worth being a villain for.

Dear Girls, are yu in search ov a hus? band ? This iz a bumper, and yu are not re? quired tew say "Yes" out loud, but aro expokted tew throw your eyes down onto the earth, az tfco yo was looking for a pin, and reply to the interrogatory with a kind of draulin sigh, az though yu waz eating an oyster, juice and all, off from the half shclL Not tew press ao tender a theme until it bekums a thorn in tho flesh, we will presume (tew avoid argument) that yu. are on the lookout for sumthing in the male lino tew boost yu in the up hill ov life, and to keep his eyes on the britching when yu begin to go down on tho other side of the mountain. Let me give yu sum small chuncks ot advice how tew spot yure fewter husband: 1; The man who is jellous of every lit? tle attenshun which yu git from sum other fellow, yu will find after yu are married tohim,luvs himself more than he duzyu, and what yu mistook for solissitudo, yu will diskover has changed intoindifforence. Jellousy isn't a heart disease, it is a liver complaint. 2. A mustash is not indispensable ; it is only a littlo moro hair, and iz a good deal liko moss and other excressences?often duz the best on sile that won't raise enny thing else.* Don't forgit that those things which yu admire in a phollow before mar? riage yu will probably have tew admire in a husband after, and a mustash will git tew be very weak diet after a long time. 3. If husbands could be took on trial, az Irish cooks are, two-thirds ov thorn would probably be returned; but tbore don't seem tew be enny law for this.? Therefore, girls, yu will see that after yu git a man, yu hav got tew keep him, even if yu loos on him. Consequently, if yu hav got enny kold vitles in the hous, try him on them, once in a while, during scouring season, ana if he swallers tlvsm well, and sez he will take some more, ho iz a man who, when Blue Monday cums, will wash well. 4. Don't marry a pheller who is alwaz a telling how his mother duz things. It iz az hard tew suit these men as it iz tow wean a young one. 5. If a 3'ung man ken boat yu playing on a pianner, and kant hear a fish-horn playing in tho street without turning a back eummorsett on account of the musick that iz in him, I say ship him; he might answor tew tend babe, but if yu set him hoeing out garden, you will find that you have got tow do it yurself. A man whoze whole heft lies in musick (and not very hefty at that) ain't uo hotter for a hus? band than seedlitiz powder; but ii he luvs to liston while yu.sing sum gentle ballad, yu will find him mellow and no soft. But don't marry ennybody for jist one virtow, ouny quicker than yu would flop a man for jist one fault. 6. It iz one ov the most tuffost things for a femalo tew be an Old maid success? fully. A grate menny hcz tried it and made a bad job ov it." Evryboddy seems to look upon old maids jist az they do upon dried yarbs?in the garrett, h: ndy for sickness?and therefore, girls, it ain't a mistake that yu should bo willin to swop yurself oph with some trow phellow for a hussband. Tho swop is a good ono, but don't swop for enny man who is re spekted jist bekause his father iz. Yea had better be an old maid for 4 thousand years, and then join tho Shakers, than to buy repentance at this price. Is o woman ever made this trade who didn't git either a phool, a mean cuss, or a clown, for a husband. 7. In digging down into this subject i find the digging grows harder the further I git. It is mutch easier tew inform yu who not tow marry than who tew, for the reason thare iz more of them. I don't think yu will follcr mi adviso, if i giv it; and, therefore, I will keop it, for i look upon advise as i do upon castor ile?a mean dose to give, and a mean doso to take.

As she was engaged in scrubbing off her doorstep, a stranger camo up and thus addressed her: "I hear, madam, that your husband has been drafted.'' "Yes, sir, ho has;" answered Mrs. Pil kinson, "though, dear knows, thoro's few couldn't better bo spared from their fami? lies." "Well, madam, I have como to offer mj'sclf as a substitute for him."

Thirty years ago, on the 31st of De? cember, 1839, the famous rampage of the elephant Columbus occurred near New Orleans, and as the only living witnesses of tho affair aro residents of Cincinnati at present, we will give a short account of the elephantino taro. .Raymond & Wabring's Circus and Me? nagerie, which had been showing sepa? rately in the centre of Louisiana, were ordered by the proprietors to rendezvous at a point three miles above Algiers? which town is diroctly opposite New Or? leans?on the last day of the year, in or? der that the combination, which was the largest that has ever appeared in the South, might march into tho- Crescent City on New Year's Day. With one branch of the show was the elephant Co? lumbus, and with tho -other Hannibal, both of which achieved national fame af? terwards. The junction had been formed, and the procession was nearly in readi? ness to move, when, unfortunately, tho two elephants were brought together, and they immediately proceeded to test their pugilistic accomplishments. Their keep? ers interfered and succeeded in parting them, and Hannibal quieted down, but Columbus was not to be so easily satisfied. He stood glaring around for a few min? utes, and then struck his keeper's horso a fearful blow with his trunk, and followed it up by thrusting his immenso tusks (over six feet long) through tho animal's body. The keeper. Wm. Crum, fell with his horse, and the elephant next attacked him, picking him up in his trunk and dashing him against the ground with such forco as to break half tho bones in his body and causo instant death. Columbus then marched along the line until he reached tho lama cage, which he upset and demolished, killing the lama. His next movement was to make a dive for John Robinson and Arthur Crippen, both of this city, who were connected with the service, but these gentlemen being horse* back, succeeded, although with great troublo and danger, in escaping. Colum? bus now passed the caravan at a run, and soon met a drayman driving two mules, both of which fell victims to his rage, as did also the driver, who attempted to es? cape by running, but was overtaken.? Passing through Algiers, tho elephant soon came across a negro man sitting on a fence, and tore down tho -fenco to get at him, and then tore him piecemeal.? The negro was a slave, and Columbus' owners were required to pay 51,800 for killing him. Further on, about nino miles from his starting point, he met a French? man and a party of negroes, whom be at? tempted to demoralize also, but here ho mot his match, and after a combat of nearly an hour, he gave up, and was chained, having first received three bul? lets from a rifle, just below tho right eye. The wounds occasioned ho inconvenience, however, beyond producing running sores, which lasted until Columbus' death, which was caused by falling through a bridge at North AdaniB, Massachusetts, in 1854, and breaking his nock. In tho rampago the elephant killed nearly a dozen horses, mules, cows and calves, for which his owners were compelled to pay about $20, 000. The circus and menagcrio company was composed of ono hundred and eight men, of whom but three aro known to be living at present, they being John Kobin son, circusman, and Arthur P. Crippen, watchman at the I. & C. depot in this city, and Louis Lipman, dry goods mer? chant at Laurel, Indiana, all throe of whom witnessed the disaster, and were compelled to observe extreme caution to prescrvo their own lives. "Mr. Crippen subsequently had both his arms broken b}* Columbus while assisting in shipping him to Philadelphia.? Cincinnati Chronicle. The Doctors.?Doctors require pati? ents, and they aro bully on approaching a bedside; they excel in that respect'; they beat tbe silent tread of 'muses' all hol? low. Sometimes it dopends on tho good looks of tho doctor wbero tho patient saj-s tho disease is located. I have known a doctor who was exceedingly homely, being told tho disease was in the head when it was not. After a doctor gets to tho bedsido it depends upon circumstan? ces what they do; generally thoy seize the snow-white wrist, stick a finger on it, and haul out a waleh and make their lips go; then they mako tho pallid counte nar.co open its pallid mouth, and stick out its pallid tongue so far he can see the warts growing on tho windpipe. Then ho will mako a minute investigation of the coating upon the tongue, that looks like it might be growing white harr to mako a rabbit pincushion for a ladies' fair. Then the old cuss will blow his nose a professional blow, shake his head, and say: "How long has this been thus?" Tho doctor will then haul out his book, and charge tho "pallid countenance four dollars, thon look out of the window, and seeing his horso has gone to sleep, and tikoly to fall down, ho will sing out to his black embossed horse-holder: "Jim! that horse is so restive, you'd bettor drive him round a square." Then he'll write something on a pieco of paper that you can't tell whether it is an order for a glass of soda water or for a putty blower, and send around to the apothecary shop, where he is a silent partner, and the apothecary man will stick number 1G5,9G5 (to mako you think ho is doing a big business) on it, and charge you scvonty-five cents for doing ro. Doctors never stop calling at four dollars a call until the patient is ablo for business without his assistance. ? It is quito easy to perform our duties when they are pleasant and imply no self sacrifico; tho tost of principle is to per? form thorn with equal readiness when they arc onerous and disagreoable. ? A correspondent of a New York pa? per wants to know which side of a lady a gentleman should take, whon ho walks out with hor. Wo should say keep on tho night side of a lady, always. ? The Boston Post says: "Lawyers should sleep. It is immaterial on which sido they lie." Mr. Webster used to say they wero amphibious and could lie as well in the water as out of it. ? "Mother," said Jemima, e'Sara wants fco como courting mo to night." "Woll what did you tell him ?" "Oh, I told him he might como. I folt anxious to soo how he would act." , How to Manage Kerosene I(amf6.? As kerosone is now so generally used in city and in country, the following direc? tions for the management of the lamps, which we clip from an exchange, may prove interesting and save life and prop? erty : Our cars are every day pained by ac? counts of kerosene lamps exploding and killing, or scarring for life, men, women, and children. A simple knowledge of the inflammable nature of the fluid would probably put a stop to nearly all the ac? cidents. As tho oil burns down in tho lamp, a highly inflammable gas gathers over its surface, and as the oil decreases the gas increases. When the oil is nearly consumed, a slight jar will ofton inflame tho gas, and an explosion is sure to fol? low, dealing death and destruction. A bombshell is not more to be dreaded. Now if the lamp is not allowed to burn more than half way down, such accidents are impossible. Alwaj's fill your lamps every morning, then you never need toar any explosion. Great economy can bo practiced in regard to the wicks. There is usually one-third of a wick wasted. By sewing ono wick to this unburnt end, and inserting the same i. e., tho samo piece, into the lamp tube, yon can burn moro of it; but bo auro to take it out be? fore the part that joins the wick enters tho tube. Now turn tho wick on the other edge and burn down to the joined edges. Thus a saving on both wicks is secured. To bo sure, the saving is small, but tho old adage is very true: "A penny saved is a penny earned." Half of a tea spoonful of salt added to the oil of a lamp which holds a pint, will tako awaj* the disagreeable odor sometimes apparent, and, it is said, prevent .the formation of that dangerous gas. It is a simple reme? dy, easily applied. It is also asserted that the salt makes tho oil last much longer, but wo have only hearsay evi? dence concerning it. Keroseno is the best antidote for a severe burn or scald Immcrso the injured part m cold water for a moment; dry with a soft cloth, tak? ing caro not to rub at all. Then bathe in keroseno, and terrible pain ceases. We know of a little child who put his foot and log into a pail of nearly boiling wa? ter. Tho above remedy was applied, and in a few minutes tho child's screams ceas? ed. We know not of the philosophy of tho matter, but wc d* know that is the most efficacious remedy for severe burns or scalds in the materia medica. Tue Seven Wonders of the World. ?The first of these wonders were the Pyramids of-Egypt. The second was the Mausoleum, or tomb, built by Artemissia, for her husband, Masolus, King of Caria, in Asia Minor, at Halicarnassus, B. C. 350. It is now in the British Museum, where it was placed in 1857. The third was the Temple of Diana, at Ephesus, which was four hundred and fifty-five feet long, and two hundred and twenty five feet broad. It was destroyed by fire on the night of the birth of Alexander the Great, by a man named Erostratus, who perpetrated the reprehensible act in order, it is said, that his name might be handed down to posterity. The fourth comprised the walls of the hanging gar? dens of the city of Babylon. These gar? dens were raised in terraces, one above another, on the tiers of arches, and reach? ed on flights of steps. Flat stones wore laid on the arches, and these were cemen ted together by bitumen, and covered by thick sheets of lead ; earth of sufficient quantity to allow trees and shrubs to grow was spread on the lead. The gar? dens were five in number, and iu the form of an amphitheatre. The fifth was the enormous brazen image of Appolo at Rhodes which was erected B. C. 200, and was thrown down by an earthquake about seventy years afterwards. It stood across the entrance to the harbor, with each foot on the extremity of a mole. The sixth was Phidias' statue of Jupiter Olympus, which was thirty nine feet high, and was made entirely of gold and ivory. The seventh was the Pharos, or lighthouse, built by Ptolemy Philadelphia, King of Egypt, which was built of white marble, at the entrance to the harbor of Alexan? dria ; and a light was kept constantly on top of it to aid tlio sailors of the Mediter? ranean in steering for the bay. Preservation o? Leather.?The fol? lowing valuable hints in regard to the preservation of leather, we copy from the Shoe and Leather Reporter: The extreme heat in which most men and women expose boots and shoes during the winter, deprives leather of its vitality, rendering it liable to break and crack. When leather becomes so warm as to give off the smell of leather, it is singed. Close rubber shoes also destroy the life of leath? er. All varnishes and all blacking con? taining the properties of varnishing, should be avoided. Shoe leather is greatly abused. Per? sons know nothing or caro less about the kind of material used than they do about the polish produced. Vitriol blacking is used until every particle of oil in the leath? er is destroyed. To remedy this abuse, the leather should be washed once a month with warm water; and when about half dry, a coat of oil and tallow should be applied, and the boots sot aside for a day or two. This will renew the elastic? ity and life in the leather, and when thus used, upper leather will seldom crack or break. Don't wash harness in water andi with soap. No harness is ever so soiled that a damp sponge will not remove the dirt. When harness loses its luster and turns brown, which almost any leather will do after long exposure to the air, the harness should be given a new coat of grain black. Before using this gram black, the grain sur? face should be thoroughly washed with potash water until all the grease is killed, and after the application of the grain black, oil and tallow should be applied te-the sur? face. This will not only '"fasten the color," but make the leather flexible. Harness which is grained can be cleaned with ker? osene or spirits of turpentine, and no harm will result if the parts affected are washed and boiled immediately afterward. -? ? To a toast of "Tho babios?God bless thorn !" a railway conductor respond? ed : "May their route through lifo be pleasant and profitable ; their ties well laid ; their track straightforward, and not backward. May their fathers bo safe con? ductors, their mothers faithful tenders, and their switch nevor misplaced.?' Reasons foe Dressing Plainly on the Lord's Day.?1. It would lessen tbe bur? dens of many who now find it hard to maintain their places in society. 2. It would lessen the force or the temptations which often lead men to barter honor and honesty for display. 3. If there was less strife in dress at church, people in moderate circumstances would be more inclined to attend. 4. Univorsal moderation in dress at church would improve tho worship by tbe removal of many wandering thoughts. 5. It would enable all classes of people to attend church better in unfavorable weather. 6. It would lesson, on the part of the rich, the temptation to vanity. 7. It would lesson, on the part of the poor, the temptation to be envious and malicious. 8. It would save valuable time on the Sabbath. 9. It would relieve our means from a serious pressuro, and thus enable us to do more for good enterprises. -4ft.-. ? A distinguished French physician, just deceased, remarked, only a short time ago, that, during his twenty-six years of practice in Paris, twenty thousand chil? dren had been borne to the cemeteries a sacrifice to the absurd custom of naked arms. Dr. Warren thinks that Boston sacrifices five hundred babies every year by not clothirjg their limbs. The arms should bo covered, from the wrist to tbe shoulder, with thick, knit woollen sleeves. ? Why aro ladies extravagant in clothes? Because when they buy a now dress they generally wear it out on the first, day.
