TERRA-CUmuLnLU.--Here's a now in vention that is attracting the attention of Eastern agriculturists. It is a dis. covery of a principle of natural law in vegetation, by Mr. Russell Comstock, Mabiettsville, Dutchess County,, New York. By the terra-culture all kinds of trees, forest, fruit and ornamental, flourish; peach trees froun fifty to a hundred years old, partially decayed and barren, are re tored to a healthy and thrifty condition, as when young, in a sigle seast, so as to produce the most abundant and finest fruit. The same results are produced upon all fruit trees, and what seems scarcely less remarkable, it appears that the precise age of trees are ascertaitni and determined by Mr. Comnsteek's theory. The terra-culture has been applied to all kinds of garden vegetables, plants, fruits and shrubbery, as also to all kinds of crops, with wonderful site cess. We cannot go into details of what experinietnts have proved. Crops of grain and vegetables are, at a great saviMg (of labor, m<>re tam dloubled by terra-culture. Onc experiment shows the production of 135 bushel.Af shell ed corn to the acre, and another the production of 1000 busiels MerceF p1. tatocs to the acre. IL is also shown that the great crops w h'icb have coin manded. premiumsthe agricultural fairs, have been duced ttecidenudly by terr - 1 4 discovery pue mg. What next? Where's guano ? GEN.
