34 C - W? ???WBt 'M.13B Continued from Second l'agr. ral education has been thought of in tli connlry ; ami even now few consider of any importance. Agriculture is ? itself a science, of a deep and abidir interest, of as much intricacy, and thorough knowledge of which is as hat to be acqu;red and understood, as any < the sciences. Itis of primary iniportanc as affording food and raiment to the In man family. It is the great hinge o which hang the Commerce and Mam factures. Had our forefathers properly estimate the importance ofagr.cultural knowiedg we should not at this day have witnesse such a succession of useless, uncultivatc and worn out lands as are to be see through most of the Southern Slates.What patrimony can a father leave li son equal to a correct agricultural ccluc; tion, connected with habits of industr and temperance formed by the father precepts and examples ! Let us set about an improvement, little tabor and money skilfully applie shall restore the lost energies of our ha reo wastes, and ?4inake the wildcrne blossom as the rose," while Ceres slm bless the labors of the husbandman ai smiling plenty fill his weII-stored game with the precious fruits ofiiis industry.

On funking over what we have writtei we find that some things have beenomi ted, which we had intended to notice i the body of our essay. Ou the suhjet of grasses we neglected to mention tli great value of lucerne, either for hay < soiling; but more particularly the latte In order to have the seed take well, tl ground must be well prepared and mai ured, and the seed should be soaked few hours in water, and then rolled in di gvpsuin to separate it. Twenty poun< to the acre will be found enough, and should lie sown broadcast the beginning ** ? i, |U1 ?,,t for Koilinir horsi M.'IV. 11 IIIHJ "V V-t? . ?. ? or cattle three or four times in a sea so ami the quantity that an acre will produc is truly astonishing. We also forgot to speak against ti pernicious practice of fall or winti ploughing, for a crop the spring erisuir Rolling lands will sillier more injury froi tins practice than those thut are level hut we object to it generally, as it leavi the naked soil exposed to the severity < frosts, to drying and driving winds, I which much of the strength and Aim parts of the soil must "waste their fn granre in the dt strtaif Few farmers appear properly to con prebend the process of evaporation ; an the groat loss that, not only soils, hut m; nitre* *iiifor by it. We would rocon iriend, at ail times, as little e.x|xi?iure < the soil to hard frosts, hot sun and dry in wind*-, as epav be consistent with a di preparation v.f them for the diftlrci crops they are to receive and produce, htt e reflection arid attention on tho pa of the prucieiii husbandman will save hi /iiuc!', annually. Connected with this subject is that < applying mannres. A great diversity < opinion prevails i?s to the proper pcrod < applying the ham-yard manure?whetl er in\1*r spring, on the corn ground, or i the full 011 the wheat. We have alwa> been in the practice of getting it out i the Spring, on the corn ground, spreadin jit on the surface and ploughing it und with the sod ; and we are persuaded tin thus is the j ro|)cr time to apply it, as would otherwise lose .much of its esscnta qualities by evaporation. Our cattle ru in the commons, where they have a ti.i range, plenty of }>asture and }H.ire wate and we take great care to have them ya ded every night. By these means, au our compost pit, we have a pretty goc supply of manure in the fall for our wliei crop. On the subject of iniprov ing the soil 1 turning in green crops, such as bucl wheat, tares, cow-peas, &c. we lurve sa nothing, not hav ing had much cxpericru in th it way ; we are not, however, fro ?Ur limited knowledge on the subject vei ?gawng?BUI3 MW WB JJil? friendly to it; for we think that where is those would grow clover would grow also, 1 it and that answers our purpose well enough. ( of We would prefer letting this be so ripe c g that the sceJ would vegetate ; for we are t I I f a of opinion that no verv great advantage d is to be derived from turning in unripe 1 of crops, full of watery sap ; and before the :e saccharine principle is formed in the i- plant. If the clo\erseed be ripe it will n save the expense and trouble of sowing j- again the fullowing spring; as it is always understood that a clover lay is intended d for a wheat crop. ;e Marls.?We have unaccountably overd /ooked these valuable materials for mad nurc, and think proper to say something J f n concerning them here. Marls are mostly 1 ? found near tide watet. Tiiey abound is from the Hudson to the gulf of Mexico, in . i- the alluvial formation. They arc of two I y kinds, argillaceous and siliceous, with car- ' 's bonatc of liinc. In applying marl as a manure, attention should he paid to this I A 'circumstance; as the siliceous will be bet(I, tor for clayey soils, and so on Hie other r- hand, the argillaceous for sandy. The ss lime they contain is either from decayed ill shells, or from shells worn down by attriid lion. They are durable manures and rs should not be neglected when they can be obtained at a reasonable expense. A new species of marl has been lately 1 discovered in New Jersey, to which has been given the name of "green sand." 1 . Its valuable property as a manure is said ( to be carbonate of potash; but bow any . considerable quantity of this alkali should | exist in the eartii is hard to understand. ' Wo incline to the opinio:*, from the similarity in the chemical properties of the re two articles, that that which has received the name of carbonate of potash, will on closer inspection, lie found to Ik* carbonate of soda. It is, however, of little consequence which it may he as it regards the value of the material for manure. They ire both excellent manures. We have never seen the article, and therefore are not prepared to passu decisive opinion as ] to the constituent parts of it. Our rea- | soiling is altogether analogical in this ! case, and must Ik; received as such. When speaking on the subject of lime we neglected to say any tiling of shell limn. This may often he* obtained by fanners who arc situated too remote from | il '" n nmnnrn: Oii,utu; iimr t?/ uob 11 ? u ....... Siicll lime lias been used by tbc writer, i and he gives il as his opinion, that in j strength it is nearly equal to slaked stone ! J lime. A good way of applying it, espec-! .ally where negroes are depended on to do I the labour, is to run the field off with a ! Mght plough in squares of 1G1-2 feet. This will give the number of square rods i contained in an acre, 1G<>. On each square spread one bus!u I or less of lime, n- without layir g down in u heap. This is i worth the trou pe also in spreading stone | lime, as the farmer will then I tunc exactly 1 how much he spreads on an arre. We have endeavored to l>e particular in n our details; hut there will still bo much ' left to exercise the ingenuity and indusl(" try of the skilful husbandman , and if he ,r !>e only half as much attached to his ocr* cupation as we are, he will always find 10 pleasure in this laudable and honourable av ocation. One essential part of the dua ty of the good husbandman is to keep a y diary in which he iste enter, from day to i /!ui- iiII <hr> ororpodin/rs as thev transpire ...., n. ^ , J on the farm ; such as the time at which he ' luaiiured, ploughed and sowed, as well as the time he reaped and the product or n* the crop of a particular field. He should 'e occasionally try e\p< rimcnts, note the time, manner and results ; and if they he ' ,c of utility, communicate them to some agri. | "r cultural journal. We'live for others as i well us for ourst lv?s ; and if this sentiment m were duly impressed on the mind of every ' farmer, a fund of information would he accumulated?as well for the guidance of D the present generation as for the instruction of our children and succeeding generutions. The lamentable ignorance of many who are nevertheless compelled by the sorce of circumstances, to follow the 1j occupation of a farmer, is greatly to he deplored, and is one of the causes that " has called forth our feeble exertions by , 1" way of remedy.

In off ring to the agricultural public of tlie Umled States the prospectus of thd Eighth volume of the Cultivator, (the second ol the New Series,) we desire the privilege of taking our put. ons and correspondents familiarly and cor dully by llie band, and thanking them roost beariiiy for the very liberal aid and sup-* port th<y have rendered us, both Ly thuir communirations and their suoscriplious. The Cultivator was established to improve gnd elevate the Agriculture of the country; to aive a proper one io the morals and mind of the farmer; to show hun the dignity and in? portance of his profession ; to store hi* mind, with useful knowledge, and convince him that while all classes are and must be more or less dependeut on each other, he alone of the whole cau make any near approach to independence. II there isoDe thing more than anuther, which in th s country gives a man superiorly over his fellow men, it is know ledge ; and this knowledge,?knowh dge which is as essential to the success of the faimer ta of other men, it Is the design ol the Cultivator 10 aid in imparling. In taking charge of the Cultivator, toe Editors were aware of the arihtous nature oi the undertaking Under its former conductor, thie journal had already attained a verv high char** acter, and we m ght have shrunk irom the task of sustaining the reputation it had gained* or from the effoils necessary to still farther elevate its standing, had not the assurance of aid from the ablest writers and the most (experienced farmers of the country,?aid w hich our columns will show has been and wdl be most promptly and fully rendered; encouraged us to the undertaking. How far we have uccced" d must be lift for the readers of the Cultivator to determine; but if an increase of subscription beyond any precedent in ibe historv ol agricu tural journals of this c; ui)try ; w if ihe almost unanimous voice of the public pr? ss in our Lvor ; if the mul itudt of private yet flattering testimonials we have received, added :o a circulation probably treble hat of anv other journal di voud to the agncuitura unrest, may be admitted as evidence, then we have certainly most ai.undant reason to no giaiifird with out success. in our efforts to render the Cultivator worthy of the patronage it has received, no expense* or labor has been or will be upe.,red. As it is every where received as the exponent I of the condition and prospects of Agriculture ;i? the Uni'ed Sta'to, we intend that eveiy subject connected w ith the great interest or any part of our country shall receive its due share of nut ice, and its proper place in our columns. Ti.e Cultivator will be a rec? rdof all iiuprovenu Ills in the stitine ot Husbandry; ol the iutioduction of new and important var. net ie> of seeds and plants ; of the nspective values ami adoption of the several improved breeds' of flotr.es. Cattle, Sheep and Swine, io uilliri nt sections of the United States ; in short it is intended to m<ke it a Work which slia 1 interest, instruct and be acctp'able to all. In the number, variety, and* excellence of the illustrations, the Culi.vati r is without a rval, 4 it her a: h?>mo or abroad. Thia depart, in* lit wilt he fully sustained, and increased ititeie.-t and attraction given by a greater numb< r oftigur* ?of American Annuals selected irom our best sp< c miens of all ktuds, native I and imported, by tiro drawing of new Implements, Agr;<uliural and Mechanical: and by engravi. gs of such objects as will be better understood, when given withsuchiliustrations. The engra tigs and illustrations of the ptfsent volume will be nearly equal to one hundred in number; and the satisfaction tbejr have iriven <>ur uatruns will secure tlreircon* C f tinuauce notwithstanding the great expense I hey necessarily occasion us. The sales of the Cultivator have been so great dunn^ the past year, and the demand for the back volumes as well as the cum in* one so constant, that we have stereotyped ^ eat h number ; and siiall be able, *?ow and hereafter. to furnish subscribers with whole sets, or any s ngle volumes they inay de-ire.
