ONE HUNDRED TONS OF GRAS3 TO AN ACRE. —Mr EDITOR : The statement you published, taken from an English paper, respecting the raising of one hundred tons of grass on a sin gle acre of land pertaining to Lord Derby's estate, is undoubtedly correct, or nearly so. 1 had' the pleasure of visiting his lordship's estate last summer, while on a tour of agricul tural observation in England, and I am pre pared to believe the statement. My visit was made 'about the first of June, and they had already secured two heavy crops of grass, and it is not improbable that foor or live more were cut during the long and favorable sea son of last year. Four or five crops of heavy stout, Italian rye grass is not unusual; Mr. Mechi of the celebrated Triptree farm, inform ed me that he had once grown seven during the summer. This grass grows with great rapidity in England when stimulated by the rich, liquid uutrinicut so liberally, and coatin ously applied. Our farmers have yet much to learn res pecting the scientific cultivation of the soil. They have yet to learn how bountiful mother earth mav be when properly diessed and car ed for by the husbandman. It should be ob served that the climate of England is much more favorable for the growth of grasses than our own, owing to its excessive humidity ; but still, I do not know why several successive crops may not be produced here, by the use of liquid mauuriug and by careful, "systematic culture. — J AS. lv. NICHOLS, llaterhill, Mas?., May, 1557. A crop of two or three tons of hay on an acre is considered pretty good husbandry in these parts, with some aftermath or rowen perhaps in the latter part of summer. lint only figure up the crops spoken of by Mr. Nich ols" in his letter to the Scientific American. One hundred tons in five or seven crops of hay on a single acre of land require each crop to be fourteen or twenty tons ? Take either sup position, and how could it be dried on an English climate of very frequent rain ? It may be Indian rye grass or any other grass ; to convert into hay, the moisture must be ex haled from it, after which the season's pro duct is affirmed to weigh one hundred pounds to an acre. We have frequently read that some plants , —some plants, if not most—derive the prin cipal part of their sustenace from the atmos phere, the ground which holds their roots of ficiating chiefly as convenience to keep them right cud up, as their roots feel rather a pref erence of being in the earth to a position high up iu the air. Such, probably, is this char acter of the rye grass, which r.otwiths audi g all the liquid fertilizers with which the ground in question was stimulated, must have its roots ; it would seem an impossible ta.-k to take up nourishm nt to feag- A correspondent of the Country Gen tleman thinks the Spanish Chestnut common in many parts of Europe, worthy of cultiva tion here. Its fruit grows to twice the size of our chestnut, aud is palatable only when cooked—but then it is said to be excellent, and is considered an important item of food in some soctious of Europe. REMEDY FOR HEAVES.—A writer in the Agriculturist states he thoroughly cured aliuc young mare afflicted with the heaves by feed ing her 011 corn-stalks, aud that the disease never returned. He quotes Judge Bud's opinion as to corn-stalks being a remedy, that distinguished agriculturist having had a horse afflicted with that disorder, which disapj>eare 1 after being so fed. A cow that runs almost entirely to milk will grow poorer, rather than otherwise, iu good pasture. She will require more water and grass. Her rich food will be almost entirely absorbed 111 the production of milk. She will be likely, too, to be short lived. An excess ive flow of milk has its dis d un'.agcs. Ohio Valley Farmer.

Elmira, April 7. 1856. n-44-12m ANEW and singularly successful remedy for the cure of all Billious diseases—Costivencss, Indigestion Jaundice, Dropsy, Rheumatism, Fevers.'Gout, Humors, Nervousness, Irritability, Intlamations, Headache, Pains in the Breast, Side, BUCK, and Limbs. Female Complaints, Ac., Ac. Indeed very few are the diseases in which a Purgative Medicine is not more or less required,and much sickness and suffering might be prevented, if a harmless but effectual Cathartic were more freely used. No per son can feel well while a costive habit of body prevails ; besides it soon generates serious and often fatal diseases, which might have been avoided by the timely and judi cious use of a good purgative. This is alike true of Colds, Feverish symptoms, and Billions derangements. They all tend to become or produce the deep seated and for midable distempers which load the hearses all over the land. Hence a reliable family physic is of the first im portance to the public health, and this Pill has been per fected with consummate skill to meet that demand. An extensive trial of its virtues by Physicians, Professors, and Patients, has shown results surpassing anything hitherto known of any medicine. Cures have been ef fected beyond belief, were they not s ibstantiated by per sons of such exalted positions and character as to forbid the suspicion of untruth. Among the eminent gentlemen who have testified in favor of these Pills, we may mention : Poet. A. A. HAY ES, Analytical Chemist of Boston, and State Assayer of Massachusetts, whose high Profes sional character is endorsed by the— Hon. El)\\ ARD E\ EIiETT, Senator of the United States. ROBERT C. WINTHROP, Ex-Speak r of the House of Representatives. ABBOTT LAWRENCE. Minister Plen. to England. tJOUN IJ. FITZPATRICK, Catholic Bishop of Boston; also Dr. J. R. CHILTON, Practical Chemist of New Y'ork City, endorsed by lion. W. L. MAItCY, Secretary of State. \\ M. B. ASTOR, the richest man in America. S. EEL AN I) A Co., Proprietors of the Metropolitan Hotel, and others. Did space permit, we could give many hundred certi ficates from all parts where the Pills have been used, but evidence even more convincing than the experience of eminent public men, is found in their effects upon trial. The-e I'iils, the result of long investigation and study, are_ offered to the public as the liest aud most complete which tiie present state of nu-dical science can afford.— They are compounded not of the drugs themselves, but of the medicinal virtues only of \ egetable remedies extract ed by Chemical process in a state of purity, and combin ed together in such a manner as to insure the best results. This system of compos.tiou for medicines lias been found in L berry Pectoral aiul Pills both, to produce a more cf ficient remedy than had hitherto been obtained by any process. The reason is perfectly obvious. While by the old ni'iile of composition, every medicine is burdened with more or less of acrimonious and injurious qualities, by this each individual virtue only that is desired for tjae cu ratiyc effect is present. All the inert and obnoxious qualities of each substance employed are left behind, the curative virtues only being retained. Hence it is self evident the effects should prove as they have proved, more purely remedial, and the Pills a more powerful an tidote to disease than any other medicine known to the world. As it is frequently expedient that many medicines should be taken under the counsel of an attending Physi cian, and as lie could not properly judge of a remedy without knowing its composition, I have suppled the ac curate Formula; by which both my Pectoral and Pills are made, to the whole body of Practitioners in the United States anu British American Provinces. If however there should lie any one who has not received them, they will be forwarded by mail to his request. Of all the Patent Medicines tliat are offered, how few would be taken it their composition was known ! Their life consists in their mystery. I have no mysteries. The composition of my preparations is laid open to all men, and all who are competent to judge on the subject freely acknowledge their convictions of their intrinsic merits. The Cherry Pectoral was pronounced by scienti fic men to I** a wonderful medicine before its effects were known. Many eminent Physicians have declared the same thing of my Pills, and even more confidently, and are willing to certify that their anticipations were more than realized by their effects upon trial. 'they operate by their powerful influence on the inter nal viscera to purify the blood and stimnlate it into heal thy action—remove the obstructions of the stomach, bow els, liver, and other organs of the body, restoring their irregular action t" health, and by correcting, wherever they exist, such derangements as arc the first origin of disease.
