From (he America?. Agriculturist. Making Fence Posis Durable* All posts will rot, sooner or later, and no motliod will put (If the petied of decoy very long. Yet St mething can be doue. Charring the lower end befcre sitiiDg it, is not lalor lost, although it must he remembered that the char ring process ofien cracks the timber, and so allows the moisture to penetrate the post and thus induce decay. Boring small holes near the ground, and filling them with salt once a year, is somotime3 recommended. Perhaps the salt thus introduced, and diffused through the wood, may retard decay, hut we canuot, from theory or oh creation, vouch for such results. Coat ing the lower end and six inches above the ground with coal-gas tar answers a good pur rose, and is, we think, tho cheapest nnd most effectual' A correspondent suggests soaking tlie lower ends iu a solution of blue vitrol, (sulphate of cupper) —all that will dissolve iu water—and says that this has been used with success on shiogles, spoutf, bean-poles, and wood in other forms exposed to the weather. Wc do not un derstand the chemical action of such a fluid, but it may be good fur fence-posts for aught wc know. NOT TOO LATE TO PLANT CORN. —The pros pect of letter prices for farm produce should lead every one to get in all tLc crops possible the present year. It is by no means too late to plant corn during the first week in June.— Some good farmers purposely delay their prin cipal corn plautiog uutil the last of May or the first of June. Their experience has taught them that, as a general rule, corn planted June Ist is as forward by the end of Jniy, as that planted May 10th. They say, that wbeD plant cd late, the ground is warm and quickly ger minates the seed, and starts it at once into vig orous growth, sDd thatgt will soon overtake and go ahead of the early planted. They aiso ar gue that one homing is saved by the late work ing of the soil previous to planting, as a large number of weeus which have started, are then killed. This year it is safe to act upou this theory, where there is a spare plot that may be used. The quick growing varieties, like the King Philip, are most desirable for late plant ing, and fof filling up vacant spots in that al ready above the ground. Of course it will not do to mix in the different varieties where pure seed is to he gathered. lb. QUESTIONS ABOUT POTATO IVOT. —For seve ral years past my potato crop has been an entire failure. 1 had planted the same .seed year after year, and on old ground. By read ing, studying, and attending discussions, I was induced to try a different course. I procured my Geed i.5 or 20 miles distant, and planted without manure on dry pasture land, broken up m the Spring. When the potatoes wore in bloom, I sowed broadcast ou the tops three or fuur bushels of ashes, with one-tenth part lime, per acre, repeating it in six or eight days. This was done during damp weather. Another peice was old mowing ground broken up, with strawy mauuro applied io different ways. Both produ ced good crops, while many pieces in the neigh borhood were nearly destroyed by rot. We know tbo potato viuc is a great absorber of moisture. When other leaves are wet, those of the potato are often dry. Now docs not this absorbing power, which the potato possesses in so great a degree, cause a super-abundance of water at the tulb iu wet, foggy weather, stop ping tbe healthy growth of the tuber; and does not the action of the heat which frequently fol ]cws, produce the same effect that moisture and beat would on any other vegetable matter, viz: cause it to rot? Do not strong manures, by in creasing the growth of the tops, extend the sur face of the leaves, and consequently the ab sorbing power, and thereby increase the liabili ty to rot? On the other hand; if straw or coarse ma nures are used, which do not rot quick enough to force a rapid growth of tops, and increase the absorbing power beyond a proper equil ibrium; or if old pastures are used, aud the an imal and vegetable manures do not exceed the mineral, does not tie bulb keep pece with the top in growth, and need all the moisture ab sorbed by the tops in order to produce a heal thy potato 1 Will not ashes and lime, so wo on the leaves, luako an alkali which, being absorbed by the leaves and carried to the roots, neutrali zes or prevents the acetous fermentation, which otherwise would take place and destroy the po tato?

IMPROVED CAST-IRON CARRIAGE HUB. r jHIE undersigned believes that he has invented a A cast iron carriage hub which far excels ail others now in use, for strength, neatness and dura bility, and that it only needs to be examined, and its merits tested, to secure its universal approval and adoption. Indeed it is no longer an experi ment, it having been effectually tried by the best judges in our country, and pronounced one of the Greatest improvements of the Age! Several vehicles have been in use over two years with the Improved Hub attached, and the wheels are still ■ s perfect as when they left the shop, the unavoidable wear excepted. This is the only Cast Iron Hub ever invented sutable for light wheels. This improvement is of such a nature that one or more spokes may be taken out changed or replaced without disturbing the other portion of the wheel Where a wood hub is used, if a spoke happens to become broken, it is necessary to cut the tire end separate the felloes, to get at the damaged part.— The wheel must be then recompo.sed, the tire re welded and reset. AH this involves a considerable jtonse and loss of time. In the present Improvement the i..ncr ends of the spoki s are secured in an Iron Hub, which con sists mainly of two shells fastettcted together with screws. By simply unscrewing the nuts and taking off the back shell, any one of the spokes may bo removed or changed, and ♦he hub again put t gether or, leaving the wheel as aoli I and firm as ever, all WITHIN THE SPACE OF A FEW MINU'i KS. This method of constructing Iron Hub Wheels fives them unusual strencth, mmmami mmm. besides obviating several other objections that have heretofore attended their use. The cost of manu facture is also greatly reduced. The subscriber Agent for Bedford County, will dispose of Towuship and shop rights, on reason able terms. WILLIAM O'NEAL Agent. Feb. 18, 1859.
