He was frequently called to till the _various offices of trust in -the town, and in 1803 was elected one of the Associate Judges of the county., It is needless to add, that in all these stations lie discharg ed, tha duties with honor to his constitu ents and credit to himself.

That part . which gave offense „was actually written In the spirit of fun. But see what a blunder-an old 'fossil of 40 to 50 years ago" made in an attempt at Joking i I am' very :sorry, , Indeed, that my un fortunate article (In that respect) made tbe worthy Seeretary so ezeiterl4 jp . i I will do him the justice to say that, that, if ho had waited tilt calmer moments, I du nut think Ise would have used so harsh language and put such miwortisy construction upon my motives. I con- ' fess that I misunderstood him, wheml, 111 my In terview (sought for the purpose of showing bins ftts mistake), he quite confidently adhered to Ilse cor rectueis of his (new light ?) method of obtalnik his figures of force In lbs. per 100 inches turned. Whets I claimed "that the average width of farrow multiplied by the average depth showed the actual number of cubic Inches of earth turned by each plow," ho :replied -"that_it simply obtated -the number of avtare inches t of a crosssectlo of the furrow;and not the cubic inehts." This is the substance of his claim s I recelleet it. When I made the illustratlen Of a piece of lumbes, 4 11 under ' stood hints. disagree wish me In my bias ration. Out of this grew the statement that he- says is false:. My conclusions were hastily formed and wills Insufficient understimling, and I am satisfied that I' was wrong and did the Captain" injustice.. Neither did I comprehend his method, the results of which I knew to be absurd, to say the least. 1411 , 11 I read the Captain's article, I was mot aware thattl had asserted •in my- "review," that I "my motives were pare and lofty " It will he a sufficient answer if : each reader will place the two articles' side by side anti carefully compare them, sum Judge for himself whether Secretary Wilt IS Justifiedln.his interpretation of my motives. In stating that I was not willing, as a dealer in Chilled Plows, to claim ;that any chilled plow ir "only .required a draft of 37 lbs. to 42 lbs. to 1(0 cubic Inches of earth int ed." I meant to be tin- detstood that I did not wish to tic Wpary to-any such ridiculous claim It would be a transparetit falsehood, that woniddo those dealers clalMing it o moreihurt than god. I told Secretary Wilt, on the morning of Oct. 2:2t1, I think, "that the plows drove 10 lbs. and itpaards to the 100 Cubic inches of earth turned.' , Of course, I knew, when t beard of them, that has conclusions werelerong, but (114 not Lave time to make out the eorreet figures ill! after I called upon him to show him his erroneous tigures._ The Captain' had evidently• obtained ."new light" In the :deuce ofagores, and st,"fossil of 40 orko years ago" failed tooonvince him of any error.

First let ree state 4 that the simple rule is not original with me, but is coalmen to all the draft trials that I have Over heard of, Meteor .which f have In my possession: Taking the average depth and wllth, runitlplY them together and you have the .average number, of cable inches tattled -by each plow. Suppose. for Instance, that. a plow cells a furoht Bsls inches at on : outlay of 500 pounds draft. 'the picei will int and turn 120 cubic Inches. This will be elleN periods 'to 100 able Inches, 'Now, to show. in a few words, the correctness of a fossil's simple way of calculation, I will endeavor to ,eriPlain as -fellows: A plow point enters the 'earth as a wedge ; the soil Is gradually cut, raised and turned /111 it leaves the rear end of the mold board and this is done little by little. The power required to do that little to expended en Use Lvov from the extreme front edge of the wedge untqlhe eon /eaves the roar end of the mold-board. It makes no difference what the length of the plow share and 'mold-board le, the rule Is the same : The Lou is no turned as a finished furrow, until the entire mirk Is accomplished inch by Inch, if you plow. It Is for nit to find what force is required to do thls,ffe/shed work, inch by Inch. If the point and mold-board are thirtyllght Inches in length as with the - Wier:l four feet or more, as in the case of some Scotch pleura, it is all the same ; only the more gradually the work is done, all things else being equal, the lighter the draft. Now suppose, as in the. Szls inch furrow, men 'Honed above, the plow, after fully entering the ground and turning its furrow out Is stopped, then started forward one inch; it turns 120 cubic inches et an expenditure of, 500 Iles. draft. It Is again stopped, then stsrted forward one Inch at another expenditure of 500 'lbs.; or, by the "Rule of Three "--41(ri.lbs to the 100 cable Inches. Let this be done twelve times to a loot of furrow length and 6000 lbs. of force are actually expended in plowing a furrow 11x15 inchei by one foot in length. has an old fossil been able make him self understood I' In one noted plow trlal'in Au burn, N.
