( Conchufoct.) tVmlted limestone has often been applied to the soil with success in the crude or unburned statej; but its ef fects are slow and more lasting than lime that has been burned. lb has not th.o solvent activity of qnioklime, however, nor the absorbing power of chalk; nor has it the minute divis ion of mild lime mixed with earth, while in an impalpable power. In a district where fuel is scarce, and limestone, or marble, plentiful, it might be cheaply crushed into a powder by flleans of water, steam,or animal power, and thus be economi cally prepared for improving most kinds of soil which are deficient in lime. But no lands in which calca reous matter naturally abounds, nor those containing a large proportion imperfectly-decomposed vegetable re mains, such as bog roots, mosa, &c., can receive wttph if any immediate benefit by the use of unburned lime, unless it be to render clayey soils mechanically lighter and boggy onos more firm. The benefits derived from burning lime for agricultural purposes are partly chemical and partly mechanic cal; for, while in a caustic state, it acts more promptly in producing those chemical changes, which follow from mixing it with the soil. Even in half-caustic state of spontaneously blacked lime, its effects are more rap id and more quickly seen, than when it is entirely in a carbonate or un turned state. Hut the principal ben efits arise from the minute state of division into which the lime is brought by buraing and slacking, When the burned limestone is slacked, if it is tolerably pure, the Jime falls,or crum bles to a powder—finer, probably, than any which could beprodu ed by mere mechanical means—finer, cer tainly, than any to which the farmer could bring it, by any crushing ma chine he could afford to employ. The chief advantages to be deriv ed from this fine state of division of lime, first, it may be diffused more equally and more perfectly through the soil and thus go much further in improving it. Secondly, it more read" ily combines with acid substances in the soil, and therefore sweetens it more rapidly and more quickly. And thirdly it comes into closer contact with the organic substances in the soil, such at roots of grass, straw, leaves, tic., and consequently pro motes more fully those chemical chan ges which are constantly going on in every fertile soil, to produce which, is one of the useful purposes for which lime is added to the land. The above remarks arc not intend ed to apply to such beds of impure limestone as may be employed for the manufacture of cemepts and hydrau lic mortars ; for these, when burned and ground to a powder, cannot be applied for the improvement of land in the usual way, without combining with the water or moisture in the soil, and shortly after become as li#rd as stone. In countries abounding in lime stone,there often exist scattered here and there, in the hollows and in the hilKsides, lanks and heaps of sand and gravel, in which rounded partis cles ofjimestone are found. These are distinguished by the names of limestone sand and gravel, and are de rived from thodecay or wearing down ©f the limostone and other rocks by the action of water. Such accumu lations are frequent in It eland. They are indeed extensively diffused over the surface of that island,as we might expee\ in a country abounding so much in rocks of mountain lime stone. In the neighborhood of peat bogs, these sands and gravels aro a real blessing. They are a ready, most useful, and largely-employed means of improvement, producing upon arable land the ordinary effects of liming, and, when spread upon boggy soils, alon«, enabling them to grow sweet and herbage, aud afford ft nourishing pasture. The tion of corbonate of lime these sands and gravel contain is very variable. A sample of yellow sani], examined by Professor Johnston, contained 20 per cent, of carbonate of )ime, the residue being a fine red sand, chiefly siiiciaus; the other, a fine gravel of grey color, contained 40 per cept. of carbonate of lime in the form chiefly i of rounded fragments of blue lime- I 1 Stone, the residue consisting of par- ' tides of sandstone, quartz, aud gran ite. The application of these mixed sands to boggy land will not only con solidate and otherwise improve the physical character of the soil, but wil' greatly benefit its chemical composi tion. The fragments of granite,con taining undecom posed feldspar and mica, will supply potash, an.il, par*v haps, magnesia,to the growing plants) and will- thus materially aid the fer tilizing notion on the limestone sand with which they arecixed, The American Citizen.
