In Memoriam.
Is tbere ne'er a bark on tne heavenly shore,
With sapphire sides, and a poldem oar
And a breeze a* soft as a poet's rhyme
To waft thee ?down the river of time i
Thup. darlinsr. com? from the roseate skies,
For we miss the gleam or thy lov>!it eyes.
Would thy volco be missed in the angel band,
And thv harp left mute, in tho Hippv Land?
Would the uniying roses, th it blossom there,
Fade for the want of a cherub's care? r
Then, dariba?, stay, on the shadowy shore,
Tho' we seo thee OD earth never more, never more.

HINT8 ON AGRICULTURE.
Home-Made Alanare-Its Application.
. Manure, in the largest sense of the term, is
anything that contains any of the elementary
principles necessary to tho growth of plants;
and the more of these contained m any given
substance, the butter will it answer tho pur?
pose of a manure. Potassa and its salts, espe?
cially their nitrates ; lime and its saith, espe?
cially sulphate and phosphate, aro among the
most important anim.il ingredients that may
"be termed- fertilizers. Besides these, we ?nd
in the composition of different vegetables, sul?
phur, iron, alumina, magnesia, silica, nitro?
gen, etc., &c. Now, when we examine a
manure heap composed of the excrements
of animals, in a state ot fermentation or de?
composition, wc find that ammonia is one
of the most prominent ingredients. Ammo?
nia is jr~compound of nitrogen and hydrogen,
and is developed by the pi occas of fermenta?
tion. These ingredients being important ele?
ments of nut ri i ion, ammonia becomes an im?
portant object of attention-a very slight at?
tention to it will suffice to convince us of ?ts
volatility. It can also bc shown to have a great
affinity for water, which is able to hold large
quantities of it in solution. Tho tendency, then,
ia a pile of fermenting animal excrements,
is to give off to the air nitrogen and hydro?
gen, in the form of ammonia, in large quan?
tities. Then wo at once perceive a source
of waste of valuable fertilizing materials.
The ammonia that thus passes off is not
lost, it is tiue, to the general purples of vege?
table productiou. as it must sooner or lat .T be
returned to the earth in tho water that de?
scends tro na the clouds; bnt when it his once
passed to the atmosphere it becomes common
property, and will help the fields of my neigh?
bors, or the forests of the mountains, equally
with my owu fields. It becomes, then, a mat?
ter of much importance to husband this mate?
rial, and retain it for my own exclusivo use.
To do this, several conditions must bo known
and attended to. In the first placo, a certain
amount of heat and moisture are necessary for
its development; consequently, during tho"low i
temperature of winter, thore is a very small
loss to the manure heap from its escape.
So also iu summer; if tho requisite moisture 1
be withheld it canuot be generated. Then, to 1
secute thc manure heap from lose from tb:s j
source, it should al wa j s bo kept woll under '
cover. But with,all tho precautions that may 1
be taken, there will linn bo moisture enough 1
to admit ot its reneratiou, even though it bc .
slow, whenever the temperature is high. Tuen 1
we must, if we would prevent loss absolutely
from this source, attend to other precautions
and measures to prevent its escape. Wc will 1
g" remise that animal excrements should always i
e kept under cover. *
Tben, to prevent loss from the escape of am- <
monia, they should be duly mixed with swamp '
much, drift materials, or even common soil 1
from the road-side; and every time that tho 1
heap of excrements receives a covering of any J
of these materials, it should be slightly spriuk- '
led over with gypsum (sulphate of inn?)'.
This latter article possesses the property of 1
causing ammonia to adhere to the soil, instead '
of flying off into the air; and hence, by its use, 1
it becomes fixed. Ibis method, so valuable in 1
retaining in tho heap this valuable ingredient, '
ammonia, bea tats other advantage-that it f
greatly inoreases thc siza of the pile. t
This valuable property of gypsum (plaster of s
Paris) makes it an indispensable article at t
every stable. It should aiways be kept on f
hand, and the floors of a'ables should ba dost- c
ed with it at every cleaning. It sh ou lu be used T
in every compost heap that contains the excre- '
ments of animals ot? tho elements o; ammonia ^
in any form; as also for a surface dressing in r
the spring months for small grain and grass, as u
.well as in tho hill tor corn, potatoes, and garden E
vegetables, because of 'ita prc?rr'v of ab
Btractug ammonia from the atmosDhcri 3
and fibing it to ? jfc
lw * considered is the best methedof .
Applying -panure to the toil and.thc crops.
.Some have contended that as ammonia coasti- j
tuted the most valuable ingr?dient of stable
mantre. tho latter should uever be applied to
tho surface of land only aa the plowr?an 1B
ready to follow, and torn it immediately under, 1
so tbat its ammonia cannot havc> an opportu?
nity to escapo. U?doubte/iiy, ir we had no
method of fixing ammonia to the soil, this me- .
thod of applying ma-iare would bo preferable
to its surface application. But if the precau?
tions above referred to bo-duly observed in the
management of the compost heap, ita applica?
tion to the surface will be found to yield tho
most satisfactory results, particularly for crops
of small grain and for meadow. And for these ,
crops the early spring will undoubtedly bo
found to be the most favorable time for its
application. ..
i>>r corn, potatoes and garden crops gener- 1
ally, it will be found better to mix the manure 1
well into the soil, but even here not more than t
to a depth of Ihrer or four inches. j
Let the c round be broken deeply in tho lat- ?
ter part of the lall, and lie exposed t a the ac- ,
tion of frost during tho winter, aud as soon as '
the ground is in condition for receiving tho
seed in the spring, let the manure be applied
' to the surface, and well mixed m to the depth
above indicated with a cultivator. The ground
may then be furrowed and planted.
The practico of throwing fresh stable man?
ure over the surf ice of tho sro and, after seed?
ing to small grain io autumn, or imho early
spring months, whether on grain or grass
crops, cannot but bo at tentlud with moro or
lead loss or ammonia, and ii therefore bad
economy. But if it has been mixed with soil
in the heap, and has been properly treated
With gypsum, there can bo no objection to this
manner of its application. Kit bas not been thus
treatod iu tho heup it should never he applied
to thc surface of land without being accompa?
nied with a lib aral use o' gypsum.
Webavo seeu a crop of over eighty bu3bcle
Of corn produced from un aero of land that has
been completely exhausted, bv a libural appli?
cation of manure that has boen thus treated
with drit band and plaster.
If we have to d'il with land that has been in
a measure exhausted, wa cannot rely ou the
< barn-yard alone for fertilizing materials, if wo
depend upon the production of such a firm for
the sustenance of animals: because its beauty
production would not enable us to heep onough
of animals to afford the amount of excremonti
tiooa matter that would be demanded by the
farm; and consequently we could only reclaim
to a state of fertility a small portion at a time;
and also consequently thore would be groat
Toss in the time required to bring up such a
farm. In this oase we may profitably resort to
the use of guano, which ia rich iu ammonia,
and of bone pnosphat s, to enable us to get tho
soil into a conditiou that wiil produce a good
crop of clover; and wheiiever we shall h ive ad?
vanced thus far TO may consider tho dead point
as paaseiI. Bono phosphates may become nec?
essary as an occasional application on many
faims, just as lime may becomo necessary to a
soil originally poor iu calcarious material; but
with these exceptions, tho farm itselt bhould
supply all the feriiliziug materials ii ever
need. Barn-yard manure cati be oasilv and
cheaply made in abundance, and of goodqual -
ty, if all the conditions above indicated bo at?
tended to. This, tuen, should be the farmer's
main reliance; and every available substan e
should thus be husbauded tor tuc use of
the farm. Xbo bu bit of soiUusr animals, or
confining them in sheds to reccivu their
given food in Bummer may bo undo
to contribute, not only to tho clieap subsist?
ence and well-being of tho animal, but also to
the rapid production of valuable fertilizing ma?
terials for the use ct" thc larm; tho hair und
feathers of slaughtered animals aud poultry
should be carefully eposited in tho compost
heap, as beint; especially r.cb in nitrogen. All
tho bones o< animate that die, or that are
slaughtered and consumed on the furni, after
having beeu reduced by a liberal applicatiou of
wood ashes should bu deposit OJ. iu thc com?
post heap, aa being rich iu phosphate ot lime,
and thus adapted to tho production of grass,
rich iu this material, and thus able to contri?
bute to the growt.i of bone iu future animals.

-There was an earthquake in Alexandria,
Ya., between tho hours ot one and two, on tho
night of tho 15th instant. At tuat very date
and time of Dight, during a violent storm of
wind and ram, a strange sort of rumbling in
the distance was beard io New York and Brook?
lyn. It had tho sound of thunder over Staten
Island. The movement iu Virginia was ac?
companied by tho same rumbling noise.
AK OCEAN RACE.
Close and Exciting Content between two
First-class Ucean Steamships- The Re?
sult.
The great trial of speed between thc steam?
ship City cf Paris, of the Inman line, and tho
Bussia, of the Cunard linc, which has just
taken place, has been one of tho closest con?
tests of the kind on record. Tbe race was won
by the City of Paris by just forty-five minules
a result which attests tbe wonderful perfection
and power which has boen attained in tho man?
ufacture of steamship machiucry. We copy
from the New York Commercial Advertiser tho
following particulars of tho race :
Tho steamers Rusria and City of Puris ar
rived at Queenstown early on tho morning of
the 19th inst., the Russia at G:30 and the City
of Paris at 5 o'clock.
The Citv of Parts lefo her dock in New Yorl
on the 10th inst-, at 1:45 P. H., and the Russia
at 2:30 P. M. Tbe Citv of Paris thus beat her
antagonist forty five inimit?s, as the following
time tablo shows :

In favor of the City Tjf Paris.0 00
The Russia is commanded by Captain Cook,
and tbe City of Pana by Captam Kennedy,
both first-class seamen and old Atlantic navi?
gators for their respective lines. The vessels
ar ? of iron, and both were constructed in Glis
cro w, the City of Paris m 1866, and the Russia
in the following year. The motive power of
the former consists of two horizontal trunk
engines, andsheis shipriggod; the latter bas
one direct acting engine, and is rigged as a
bark.

sels:

Bussis.2959 308 feet 43 feet 27 ieet
It is understood a Rood deal of money de?
pended upon this contest, and consequently
much interest is felt by those pecuniarily in?
terested in the rosult, and also by the friends
of each line. The loman line, to which the
City ot Paris belongs, is anxious 'to secure the
British mail contract, aud as a;ineans to that
end, are endeavoring to show' a schedule of j
shorter passages than tho Cunard Company,
which has always enjoyed tho mail carrying
between this port anti Liverpool.
The result of this run te JLiverpcol, although' I Q
showing quite sufficient to settle ail side beti), I "
is not enough to mark any difference in tho
speed of the two steamer?, but it will intensif?"
tho contest for supremacy between the com?
petitors tor tho British mail Bulwidj, which
the law enjoins shall be given to thozet steam?
ers that make tbe shortest trips across the
Atlautiti.
As we have received but thc bare foot of |
their arrival, we cannot tell whether tho stearn
srs had to depend upon their engines entirely, I ?|
sr were enabled, by favorable winds, to usc
their sails. It tho latter, tho City of Paris had
Ul advantage, as being ship-rigged. sho could
spread tn >re canvass than her competitor. In | vi
i few days, however, tho vessels' logs will ar?
rive, when all tuo particulars will appear.
THE GUANO I>LAND3.-Secretary ilcCulloch
las prepared a circular to collectors of custom s
relative to tho guano islands appertaining to J
bc United States. To tho circul?t is subjoin- o
:d a corrected list of th s guano island* bonded tc
mder act of August 18, 1856, and the alton?
ion of collector.! is directed to said islands hi
vith a view to tho proper ouforcemsnt of the bl
aws regulating intercourse therewith, 'lhe '}
aw requires that no guano shall bo token from '
ho said islands, locks or keys, except for ibo "
iso of citizens of thc United ??tate?, or of per- C(
?ons resident therein. The uct of July, 1866, tc
oartially suspended this prohibition. ?'he law
tlso provides that the introduction of guano
rom said islands, rocks or keys, shall be re
rulatcd as tho coasting trade between the
liffeiont ports ot the United States, and the
>amo laws shall govern the vessels concerned
herein. Andas tho laws of tho United States
orbid foreign vessels from engaging in the
oasting trade, and a commercial intercourse
nth tbese islands thus form a part of said
rado, eollectors aro requested to use all vigi
mce to prevent any Infractiot. ol'any law or
egulation on the subjoct. The list nu*?..era .
