THE KING OF THE SOIL
Mick sin may nestle•below a c rest, .
. And crime below a crown z'
As good hearts beat 'heath a fustain vest,
As under a silken gown.
Shall tales be told of the chiefs who sold'
Their sinews to crush and kill, •
And never a word be sung or heard
• Of the men who reap and till ? '-
I bow in thanks to the sturdy throng
'Who meet the young morn with toil
And the burden 1 give of toy rattiest sung
Shall he this—Ttr. hire or Tot:
Then sing fur the king, who have no cruteo
But the blue sky over their head—
Never Sultan or Dey had such power as they,
To withhold or to ollir bread.
Prowl ships may hold both silver and gold,
The wealth of a distant strand:
But ships would rot, and be valued not,
Were there none to till the land.
The wildest heath, and the wildest brake,
Are rich as the richest fleet,
Forlhey gladden the wild birds when they -wake
Ata.tive them food to rat.
And with willing hand, and spade. and plow,
The gladdening hour shall come, •
When that which is called the 'waste land' now,
:shall ring with the " Harvest Homer' ,
Then sing for the kings who have no crown
But the•hlite ski , o'er their head—
Never Sultan or Dry had such poWens as they
To withhold or to offer bread. •
Potato Disease.
We hove received a letter hem Mr. J St-
N'' fps; of West Pou!tuff, Vt., in which he gives
sonib farts that have leil hint to the coiwlti-ion that
a remedy for the potato diseace is to be'fotiod in
eying snirrff ploorx p r . se,d: lVe will not vetouie
to say what caused the exerription from riot in the
cases he mentions ;. but if small seed j otatoes were
any security against the malady, the crops of this
vicinity for the last two years ought certainly to
have escaped. But the loss by rot has, probably,
been as great here as in most sections, not wi.listatid
ing a very large proportion of very small potatoes
hits been used for soed.
t" But theory still more novel than the above has
teen broached, viz., 64 . the disease is attritaitable
io the influence of a ennui d A year .agn, or more,
we saw this conjeeture put forth in a Massachusetts
paper ; and lataly we noticed that the same idea
has been advanced by a correspondent of the Mon
tidy risitor. The writer alluded to thinks "it is
possible, that the comet which appeared in the
month of February, 1818, with such brightness and
splendor as to be seen with the naked eye near the
son and about noonday imparted something to the
earth Away or indirectly, which was deleterious
to the potato plant."
But admitting the assumption that a poisonous
rsinciple was actually imparted to our almospbere
by the cornet, it is certainly very singular that the
potato of all the prodnetions of the earth, should
have been made the special lictim!
Of late, we have not thoughtit an object to occupy
much time or space, in reference to the potato dis
sease; but having seen in the Gardener's .Chro - nic'e
an account of a very complete series of experiments
tried last year in the garden ofahe London !Joni
cultural Society, we are disposed to givo our read
ers a brief abstract.
In the everiments• alluded to, the soil and seed
were treated in various ways : and the proportion of
diseased tubers ascertained on dicing the crop.'
The substances employed were lime, 'charcoal. ,
salt, chloride of lime, potash, fat, sulphuric acid.
coal-tar, chalk, sulphate of soda, nitrate of soda,
sulphur, and sulphate of magnesia. some mosso
the sets or tubers were sprinkled with the substances
before planting. The various articles were ap
plied not only .separately, but mixed in almost
every • way„and the rows thus hewed, carefully
compared with each other as to yield and condition
and also with parallel rows which received noth
ing. Full tables (for which we have not rootn)are
given, showin,;?, the results in each particular case.
Ne conclusion could be deduced from either of the
Ilia's or from the whole takett togetlier, in favor of
the usefulness of any applicatiOil or treatment. The
Chromth remarks, so capricious was the enemy in
its attacks, " that a result obtained in one place was
directly reversed by a result in pottier pl:up only
a yard or two tiff—there being no appreciable dif
ference in soil or shuation or direnmstance. For ex
ample, the precentage of diseased potatoes found
where nothing had-been used in the 'soil, vas as
high as 35. 20 and as low as 5.7. 4. And although
in the cases of some applications no disease what
ever svaslound when the crop was taken up—never
theless, in many instances the very same applica
tions were found connected with above 50 per
cent. of dii,ease." •
• With the above, experiments were also tried
with seedling porat9s, and also with wild ones from
South America. The seedlings Were from seed
obtained from various parts of Germany, from, Po
land, and from sonic districts of England. Sour e
of the plants were started in hot-beds and afterward
transplanted to the open ground, and others were
grown entirely witliout protection. The table show
that all these suffered as badly as other varieties,
The account says—" seedlings, concerning, which
so much obviously nitfinunied expectatio'mwas en
tertained, proved Ito more exempt from' the dibseaso
than till and long cultivated varidtics.''
The wild potato fared no he ter. We afe told—
" A perfectly will form of the toot, fresh from its
native mountains, exhibited the ch arar i ei i,ei e H o t_
ches in a worse degree } thanmy other sort in the
garden.

• Why is it; That the effort and enterprize of the
coalmen:jai - and reechaniCal part of our population
is crowned with so much success, while, with%
tew exceptions, compared with the great mass, the
efforts of our ferment but just enable them to five?
Is it not for want of the proper direction of their
energies to the object sought t Wo hear daily of
merchant princes, ol manufacturers who accumulate
immense wealth, ol bankers who con rol lar_e
amonnls of our circulating toed' , anti those atm
_ov'ern the affairs and direct thelegistation of our
country.
, Why is it, that sixty-ffc-e• thousand professional,
tool one hundred and twenty thousand commere uI
met', and eight hundred thous:ma manalaeutrers
and mechanics, making in the a=regate I, s,
one million, exeit so much more influence than the
four millions or our agricultural population ! And
why arewe told that the fainters constitute so small
a proportion of our several legislatures, when their
mterests are so much greater than that of all other
(-lasses united!
The numerival and physical power in this country
is largely in favor of agriculturists, and were their
efforts properly directed, there is no reason why
the influence they exercise should not be in propor
tion to this power. The number of farmers to be
f in our legislatures at the present time may
possibly be greater than formerly. Yet it is to be
kare.l. that they ate not always tin. best men who
s'.lo tI l have been selected : but that in some instan
ces they are those wlto bypeir ambition rather than
their merits, havegained these places of distinction,
and who, if We may form an opinion by the result
of their legislation, are . controlled by others, and in
many cases, like sonic who fill our country and
town mikes, are men who seek after office, rather
than those who sought after. Our object is not to
write a political lecture, but to inquire into the
reason why so great disparity exists in the intellec
tual powers of the dilfereitt classes of our portal:limn
Is it nut for want of a system of education adapted to
their various occupations. It may' be said that the
children of almost our (unite population enjoy in
our common school equal opportunities for olttrU-
Vrith each other. Is there not wantitv-, how
ever, in all of them an appropriateness to some of
these occupations, and more particularly to those
who seek an agricultural employ - filen'? True, in
our schools they are thought that " two and two
made four :', and that seven per cent. added to the
principal once in ninety days accumulates tapidly.
But is. not this suited to the merchant : wit] banker
rather than the farmer? Does not this instruction
give the commercial man a grading point, which
leads him to make laws to promote his own inte
rests. permitting him to purchase State Stocks pay
ing six per cent, and cUi this basis giving him the
privilege of issuing a representative of money winch
he may, receive seven per cent once in ninety days
on the'same property,. while the farmer, should he
be so prospered as to accummnlate a little money
to loan, is prohibited by our laws from taking over
seven per cent. 'Should not the farmer's boy be
taught that - where " one blade of grass - now grows
two may made to grow," and should not lie be
instructed how and in what way it is accomplished.
Thus giving him a starting point, which would li
be as certain in its ultimate favorable results as in
the case just supposed. When will our farmers
awake to see the importance of so edudating their
'children to the business of farming, so Ito shall be
as well informed in what relates to his Occupation
as the commercial and professimabman now is in
what concerns his? Ilas not the time arrived
when in all our common and higher schools of
education and colleges, the science of agriculture
should be taught so that they may enjoy equal op
portunitiesop-
pounities for education, adapted to theiffemploy
ment, with the most favored class of our community
'and that the education acquired in these schools
should not be so exulusively and entirely confined
to' what concerns the professional max alone!
Let this subject be continually kept before the farmer
through the agency of agricultural papers and other
agricultural publications, and -we may look with
confidence to the time as not far distant when the
farmer, with others, may receive the benefits of
education, and legislation, of our common country,
when his rights and privileges shall be equally
protected, and when education shall make him in
tellectually strong as well as numerically and phy
sically so. ON Mk.
MA NEEL WERTZ EL A ND CARROTS. -Dr. Thompson
who was employ it by the Moral Agricultural occity
to superintend some experiments in feeding stock,
states that after trying mangle wurtzel for four suc
cessive years, he come to the conclusion that cows
fed on it gave quite as much milk, but; much less
butter and cream_than when fed on carrots or tur
neps: that when ewes were fed on mangel wurtzel
the lambs did not thrive, owing to the pour quality
of the milk.
A few years ago we had occasion to feed three
cows during winter with several kinds of veurtables.
We fed mostlywith potatoes, giving each cow about
a peck per day. On changing from potatoes to the
samelquantily of poorer sugnr-beets, the milk de
creased: and was evidently Mpoorer quality. The
beets were increased to half a bushel to each cow
per day, and this brought us the quantity of milk to
- what it had been with the peck of potatoes: but
the qua ltity of cream, and proportionately l ess
butter, which was of a lighter color, of a less firm
uAture, and not so rich a flavor as that made while
the cows ate potatdes. It is porper to say that above
a'quart of corn meal was given to each cow per
day, throfigh the whole trial.

bilious, stomach, liver, and chronic complaints. As a
Cathartic, they are perfectly mild, thorough and streng

Fever and Ague, Dumb Ague, Ague Cake, and the
like. The Health bitters restore the tone of the sys

of females, &e. The Kasapaglla is the best in the
world ; and is so pofrerfully concentrated that it is-ten
times cheaper than any other. The Children's Pana
