The following is from the :Albany
Evening4otrnal, airepublicao paper, ;and
Seward's home organ :
. In 1860, when only distant mutterings
of rebellion were•heard, we were among
the few who recognized, in those threats,'
the certainty of war, and who, in a meas-.
nre,. com'prehended - both its magnitude..
and its horrors. It is always an offence;
in - ,an individual, to foresee' evils, and
especially so -to attempt to avert, or even
to be prepared for them. For an article
then written; asking the -President', Con
grem;and our readers, to raise their eyes
and.thoughts above the horizon of party„
anatconternplate'a crisis which would taxi
the'enirgies of the people, and test - the
strength of our ove.rnment, we incurred
the
,der. ilne4atio ns o f man y,an (.1 the friendly
mist& of most of - the Republican johni
als.-
Subsequently, ..when rebellion was
ram Pant in thextreme Southern States,
question 'whether. North Carolina • and
Tennessee should remain in the Union. or
go Outof it, arose, we all remember the
"Border State Proposition," upon, the
ado - ption of which, by. Congress, rebellion
from the Mississippi to 'the Atlantic,
would have been bounded - by the southern
lines of Tennessee and. North Carolina.
With S .rnotlification' which the Border,
State representatives offered to accept.,
we advocated that "compromise." And.
.for_this also; we were sevcrly - deuounced.
In the " Peace
~Congress," where , the
I-e-risiat'ire honored us with al;cat which
4
resigne.o. l in favor of a distinguished
, - ,citizen, the," Border State Propoiduen"
=was-gain rejected,-and consequently two
- states a majorityiof whose citizens yearned
to remain in the Union. were lost. With
North Carolina and Tennessee in the
Union, Virginia could not have. gone out
. We should, therefore, instead of
. sacritlantr hundreds of thousands of lives,
and hundreds of • millions d:treasure In
North Carolina, Virginia, Tennessee and
Kentucky, have reserved thoscsroops
thattreasure to cruSli out.rehellion in the
. Cotton Stakes.
The'rebellion—as wanton and wicked
as.any that'staius the pages. of hiStory—
thus' et bracing tuol'e States than was
necessary —has been .ncarly two ,years iH
progress, with what measure of success
and with what promise of a termination
'we can judge,-one as wellts another. Its
Icssous teach us that it requires all the
.strength of 'a tinitedNortH to preserve the
Union. and 'uphold the government; We
h.d at :the commencement of the war a
unit- dlqrth. I The culmination of toason,
in its attack on Fort Sumter, kindled a
blaze of indignant patriotism: over the
. whole ' t = orth, East • and West. All
. merely partisan feeling ,was - merged - in
higher and nobltr - impulses. Ali good
and trim 'Men, in latitaticu of their an±
castors •at Concord and Lexington, in
1776, rushed to arms, or contributed
_money. - Then we were, in the language
of air. Jefferson, c.Tubligans 7 4,,all
*Federalists," or - in other; lauguage,-"all
Repulicans—all Democrats." For the first
year the war had, with few exceptions,
the hearty support of both and all political
_parties. It-was proseCuted earnestly, but
with indifferedesuccess—with more.lleart
then headore , zeal titan reason. We
had gallant tro6ps commanded by hicapa
, Lie generalsonatie so , - probably, by news
paper and other interference. At any
rate, the ill success of our armies caused
popular impatience, of which 'those' ultra
anti-slavery views enabled the scession
. leaders to mass the sentiment of the cotton
States, d'vailed•themselves to impart an
abolition character to the war..
'The. evidenee before 'us—in the rivers

A few words about the qualitYand value Of this land
for cultivation; of which we have some strong proof. '
Our first visit %vasty Williani D. Wilson, an Frauitlin
.township, Gloucester-comity, who purcliased some eight
miles north. of Millville, _aboat three years; ago; for the
purnose of establishing a Steam mill; t 4 work 0.0 the tini
berluto lumber; to send oil' by the new railroad, as well
as the firewood and coal, for which he built a track one I
mile and a half long, lle also furnished sixteen miles of
the, road with ties; and hati no doubtanade the mill prof
itable, though his main object, was to open a farm, hay
ing become convinced that the soil was very valuable for
cultivation. In this he has nut been disappointed, as
some of his crops prove. For instance, the second time
of cropping, 306 bushels of potatoes on one, acre, worth
tin cents a bushel in the field. This year, Seven acres,
thout manure, produced :350 bushels of oats. In one
wid,tiri first crop was potatoes,planted among the roots;
d yielded - 75 bushels. .The potatoes were dim, and
fie eat soWn; writ .yielded Id bushels . ; and' the stubble
annedunder and sown to buckwheat which yielded 33%
bushels ; and then the ground was !sown. tO clover and
- timothy, which gave as a first crop 23:.; tons peracre.
-The fertilizers applied to 'these crops were first, ashes
from clearings; second, 225 pounds of superphosphate
of linte,;,thirti. WO pounds Peruvian guano; and then 50
bushels of slaked lime has been spreaill upon the - clover
since it was mowed, and turned in for wheat, '
Mr. Wilson's'growing crops, and-the wheat stubble. of,
the present season, all tudicate his laud as productive as
any part of the State. ... • , .
At Mary Barrow's, an old style Jersey woman farmer,
several miles south=of Mr. Wilson's, we were so particu
larly struck with the fine appearance of a,.`tleld of corn,
that we stimped tO inquire of the hired man how it was
produced. We found that the laud had been the - year bah
one before in wheat, sown with clover, and this cut onis
seia.4ou, and last spring plowed once, with one '• poor olct
nag." andplaided with corn. , _
Yes, Wit you mended high, we •suppose ?'" we said
~
interrogatively, and got his replya.
, • ..
Wall, you see we. couldn't done that; 'cause we
Hadn't but forty-one horse loads altogether, for 23 acres,
and we- wanted the most mit fur the truck." • . .
The truck coni,:isted of beets, carrots. cabbage, melons,
sucumberi, &c.. and ;_very productive patch of Lima
beans, grown Tor marketing, So we were satigted that
the soil was not unfertati,even unaided by clover, which
had fed-the corn, because the itruck patch" hail nut been
cloveied. :rod had been in cultivation lotgenoughlo oh
irr
litate all signs of the. forest. - , - - • ..
Opr- next visit waste the, large farm of 'Andrew Sharp,
five mile? north of Millville,• from half to a mile cast of 1
that andjust about in thecentre :et Vineland.
Mr. Sharp commenced work here in December; ]558, on
'Mures. - In lessltian three years he his got 23.1 acres.
cleared and, in crops this• season,. all Well - inclosed and
divided into's - ever/a fields, with cedar rail orpole. fence;-
has built a two-stork dwelling, abo ut , thirty-six or forty
reist, and a' gmallaa hon.. far farm laborers, and a stable
andgranary and some other outbuildings. • - •
, ceThetaerableliart of the .land, was cleared-for the plow
at $9 an acre. and'on some of it the first cropwas buck-
Wheat, limed with 50 bushels 'in politer per acre. This
crop may be pht in from July 4th to 20th; and yields from
,20 to 30 bushels - per acre. harvested in November, when
the land being sowed with 150 pounds of Peruvian guano
andseeded with rye; yielded 12 to 15 bushels per acre and.
$lO worth of straw: The rye stubble - turned, after'eutting
off a large growth of oak sprouts, and dressed again with
guano nd - seeded to wheat, gave 15 or Id bushels. • The•
crop which he was threshing while wd were there prom
ises more, of a very plamp grain, and the straw is very
heavy.
We went •over'the stubble. and found the clover and
timothy, from Seed sowed last spring, oti,tbe wheat with-
Out harrowing. looking as, well as kve -ever. saw- it upon
any old. cultivated farm, and with a - little work done in
the winter 'to clear Cation:: roots-androtten stuns, and
setting; stakes to Mark : perm:meat ones, we will-he able
to cut the' rop next sear wt. he mowing machine and we
1%111 guarantee two tons per acre, if he will give the over
-plus if it overruns the-estimate. -
Part of the land Was planted with pti'tatoes for. a first
crop, .Which yielded 120 bushels per acre. It was 'then
limed - with fitly.bushels per-acre, and seeded with wheat
and clover, Yielding an average of over IS bushels per
acre,and the clOver now looks`heantifitl. . . •. 7. ,
_Other portions have been planted with corn as a first
crop, which yielded 30 bushels of yellow flint corn,. and a
second crop 40 bushels, and a' third crop, treated to 150
pouuds,of guano, we are sureino oirit would estimate lees,
t a :10 bushels per acre. .

In other cases the corn crop of last Year was followed
with oats this season, not yet threshed, but will average
probably :10 or 50 bushels. • Sweet potatoes, beans, mel
ons, anti in fact, all vegetables,'as well as young peach
and-other fruit trees planted this year,.show very.plainly
that this Ithi^ neglected tract of land should remain so no
longer, and there's now a strong probability that it will
not; for under We auspices of Mr. Landis, it will be cut
into small lots, With roads located to accommodate all—
