I rhascs of the Xntlonnl Orotrth. Some of the census returns furnish a curious, refutation of the fallacy largely prevalent in the public mind both of Europe and of this oountry. We make so much of our immigration statistics and they show so large an aggregate of population, that the belief is very prev alent that the United States is really n Old World colony, and that it contains more foreign-born than native citixens. This belief is strengthened by the very large preponderance of foreigners in onr cities, and by the fact that so many strange and unfamiliar names appear on the street signs. The very presence of a decided foreign name is assumed as evi dence that the owner cannot be native born. The census returns, however, cor rect the delusion, and show that we have an American people, and an Amen- N. Harbor In 1858, bearing date 1010, and English letter II In the centre. The afldavit of Mr. Fasset.that in I'M the aacient canal showed remains four feet kigh,' deep, and wide, bearing at that date maple trees eighteen inches in di ameter. He also exhibited pipes from the apparent ruins of an ancient factory there of the patterns of pipes of clay, in all respects like pipes cinssiried, marked and arranged in a museum of tobacco pipes in (Juildhall, London, belonging to the times of Jamos the First and Charles the Second of England, seen there by Mr. Dean, and now compared with the specimens shown. Spoons of the pattern of the Elizabethan period, and in all respects like those dug up at Gosnold's landing on the Eiizaboth Islands, and found here were shown.

The total popula tion of the United States is given as 38,555,983, of which those of foreign birth number 5,568,416, leaving 33,000, 000 of natives and to the manor born. In other words six out of every seven of those we meet are natives, who thus out number the foreigners rix to one. Now contrast these figures with certain other statistics and some interesting facts ap pear. The population of this country in 1790 was 3,929,827. Up to 1870 it has increased 34,626,156. During these eighty years the entire immigration has numbered 7,803,865, and of this total, only 2,000,000 have died. Deducting the number of immigrants from the in crease for eighty years, we have 25,822, 291 as the increment from American thick, which. 47 vears ko was over crown with vervlarne oaks, now cleared cff.

Toriinl es and TVntcr Spouts.

The out-running stream has been kept within full banks, and has swollen from a rivulet to a grand tidal stream whose motion and force shall per petually increase. The period from 1 ism to 1870 is divided in the returns after the year 1820, into decades. For the thirty years before 1820 tho immigra tion is estimated, and is lumped at 250, 000. Since then accurate tables have been made, and the arrivals for the five successive decades have been as follows from 1820 to 1830, 151,824 ; from 1831 to 1840. 599.125 : from 1841 to 1850, 1,713, 251 ; from 1851 to 1800, 2,598,214 ; from 1861 to 1870, 2,491,451. If we add to gether the arrivals from 1841 to 1870, the aerereeate is 5,099,665, a number tall ing but little short of the actual popula tion of the foreign born now in the country. Another fact is worth noting from 1790 to 1820, a period of thirty years, during which the total emigra tion was only 250,000, our population increased from 3,929,82 1 to li.bJi.o'Jb, During the next thirty years, while the immigration was z,444,2uu, trie popula tion grew from 9,654,590 to 23,191,874, D urine the last thirty vears, with an im migration of 6,802,916, it has increased from 17.063.355 to 38,555,983. The fact appears that the ratio of the natural in crease steadily diminishes in spite of the constant accession from abroad. Some of the statements of the alarmists, who write of a diminishing birth-rate, have thus an actual verification. A careful comparison of local statistics in certain States and cities would show this, and show also that the European hive, to whose activity we are indebted for so large a portion 01 our population, trans mits a like activity to the swarm sent to our shores.. There are in reality only two or three States in which the foreign born are in excess of the native. Minnesota, JN eva da. and Wisconsin are illustrations of this, while North and South Carolina, and indeed all the Southern States, fall far below the average of six to one. In Georgia the ratio of natives to foreign is 100 to 1, in North Carolina 350 to 1. In Indiana it is about 10 to 1. There has been an ancient, but now generally ex ploded theory that allegiance runs witn the blood for at least one genera tion, and some of our good friendj across the Atlantic have not only claimed the right to loyal service from their subjects changed into our citizens, but from children of the same. The United States have resented and resisted this doctrine, and all its surroundings and sequences. If admitted, it would deprive us ot a very large portion of our people. Upon the present basis we surrender no one, and the European who avows his inten tion of becoming a citizen, has the pro tection of our flag, as muuh as the des cendants of one of the Signers, or of the Boston Tea Party. If the United States waxes in the future as in the past, the feudal folly of allegiance will soon have no vestige ot existence, gambles a as pours from the pipe3 of a steamer burnincr nine wood : it is, in tact, con densed vapor or cloud, intensified in blackness by tho dust and rubbish car ried up from the ground. The tornado is a sneu or nouow eyim der of air. and all its energy lies in its rotating rim, which is powerfully com pressed by two antagonistic forces, cen trifugal and centripetal. The rapid whirl draws the air irom tne centre 10 wards the circumference, where it is met and opposed by the mrushmg winds There is, consequently, a rarefaction, a ereat reduction ot temperature by ex pansion, and condensation of vapor with in the shell. The snout does not huiz the earth con tinuously, but rebounds or ricochets along the uneven surface, often skipping the valleys, but generally desolating the hills. It is disposed, however, at every recurrence to strike at the same points. It is not an established lacr, but it is commonly believed, and with somo rea son, that tho tornado does, in the course of vears, return along us beaten path, and that it is unsafe to build where one has ever passed. A house in Pickens county stood on a hill lrom which a log cabin had beeu blown away some tinny A Buried City In Maine. The last " field day " of the Maine Historical Society was enlivened by an address from Mr. It. K. Newall, who said that at a special meeting of the So ciety, held at Augusta in February,1869, the Question of the existence of paved streets at Pemaquid was discussed, some alleging ocular demonstration, and oth ers denying the fact. On motion of the Hon. J. W. Bradbury, a large committee of the Society was appointed to visit the spot. On the 26th of August following, that committee proceeded to Bristol, and vears before. I witnessed the last ct three which have passed along tho same track. Near Hernando, Miss., three have followed an unvarying line. It is probable that there are some localities more favorable tnan otners to tluo gen eration of these storms, and if this be true, then the law of direction, hereafter explained, accounts tor their progress along tho indicated path. Such an opportunity as fell to my lot of witnessing the formation and course of a tornado, is rarely enjoyed, and the phenomena observed on that occasion are of great value in illustrating the origin of these whirlwinds. On the 29th of April, 1867, at ten o'clock, A. M., I was appraching Tuscalooso on tho Elyton road, the general direction being east and west. ine weatntr was not ana oppressive, while perfect calm prevailed both at the surface and in the upper re gions, for tho leaves were not stirred up on the trees, and the heavens were cov ered with fragmentary clouds, perfectly at rest. Occasionally large drops of rain fell, and there was, now and then, light ning. The atmosphere was evidently surcharged with vapor, and in a condi tion of great electrical excitement. At the distance of three and a half miles from town, an elevated ridge, over which the road passed, aflorded an extended view, and I saw a mass of black cloud detached and banging over tne western horizon. It appeared nearly circular in shape, with the exception of a slight angular projection, line an inverted cone, at its lower edge. I afterwards ascer tained that it was about five miles dis tant from me at this time, and a calcu lation, based upon the estimated angles, fixed the elevation of its base above the surface at about fifteen hundred yards, and its diameter, considering it a sphero, at about six hundred. It was entirely at rest. The Enrly Dnys of William L. Jfnrer. A correspondent of the Liberal Chrit- tian tolls this story about William L. Marcy : 1 spent a day 01 my vacation at Chari ton, Mass. As we rodo into the village on the evening of our arrival, we Baw au old man on his way from bis liouso to the barn closi by, going, with pail in hand, to milk tho cows. He was niufcty two years old. He not only milks the cows, but drives (hem to pasture and goes after them ngain every day, just as ho has done ior 1 know not now many years, in tne morning, as we sue upon the piazza of the hotel, the old man was seen walking along the street on the other side, with a quick, energetic step, when Mr. Pratt called him over to the house, and introduced us to him. He sat down and was very chatty, talking over the times that were long ago, and telling us of the years when he saw such men as George Washington and John Adams and Fisher Ames, and mingled with the great spirits 01 a generation which seems quite distant from the men of to-day. For General Salem Towue, our venerable menu, was tormeny Him self a man of mark and influence, well fitted by nature and education to associ ate with the most eminent of his con temporaries. The General is often spo ken of as " the man who made Hill Mar cy. IS111 Marcy was a native 01 tue im mediate vicinity, and grew up to be a wild and heady youth. He was thought by his parents and by all the neighbors to be the worst boy tney knew, une winter he succeeded, in conjunction with kindred spirits, in ousting the teacher from the diatrict sebool. waiem 'lowno, then a young man, was summoned as the fittest person to take charge cf these unruly youth and complete the term. Evervbodv thought the new teacher would certainly have trouble with Bill Marcy. But tho trouble did not come. The first day had not passed before Mr, Towno had discovered in his pupil an element of real good, and told him so. This, to the boy, was a most unusual acknowledgment, and it touched his heart. Some ono had seen good in him. He was, then, capable of batter things, end he wis determined to mane trie en deavor. It was the turning-point of his life. Such was his conduct mid such his pro gress in study that his teacher advised him to go on and prepare Limself for college. It was a great Eurnrise to his parent?, but at the urgent eolicitation of Mr. Towne they gave their consent, and he was placad under the instruction of a clergyman in the vicinity of his home. At length he entered college, and passed through the course with great success, justifying at every step the confidence and hone of his best friend. In subse quent life he rose from ono degree of eminence to another, until at last tho whole world was familiar with tho name and fame of tho great statesman of New York, Y lliiam 1j. Marcy. Long vears otter he had left his school- day haunts, and when he had come to deserved eminence, he visited Boston, and was the guest of the tnen Governor of tho old Bay State. Among the dis tinguished men who were invited to meet him was General Salem Towne. When the Governor saw Marcy and Towne greet each other as old friends, he very naturally expressed a pleasura ble surprise that they knew each other so well. " Why !' said Mnrcy, " that is tho man that made me. When 1 was a boy everybody was against me. None no, not even my own father or mother saw any pood m nie. lie wrs tue nrst who believed in me, befriended me, told me what I might become, and helped mo on in life at that critical juncture. Whatever of merit or distinction I havo attiiinf d to, I owe to him more than to any other living person." We need not sav that the teacher, who has so long survived tho illustrious pupil, is proud to remember that he is "the rnn who made Bill Marcy." Imtoovv.ment OF Land.

In the autumn of 1 863 this acre of land wa nlnncrhed and in the succeed inc mirinff dressed with five hundred pounds of cure, fine bone, sown broad cast, planted with corn, a handful of home-made superphosphate mixed witn ground nitrate of soda, placed in each Kill. One hundred and fifty-seven bush els of corn in the ear were taken from the field in the autumn of 186 1 After the corn was removed the land was plowed and again dressed with live hun dred pounds of compost made up of bone dust, ashes and reluea sanpetre, and sowed down to winter rye. The crop was thirty-one bushels nice and plump grain. The season cf 18011 was exceedingly drv. and the ground becHino so parched that the tender grass roots were greatly injured. The crop ot hay whs twenty three hundred pounds. The next season a top-dressing of five hundred pounds of bone gelatine and muck was given it in the spring, nnd a crop of hay cut weighing forty-three hundred pounds. A heavy after-math was secured this season which was not weighed. In 1S68 the crop of hoy reached two and a half tons, leaving the ground, na before said, in good condition ior future cropping. The account given of the improve mcnt of tho whole, about twenty acres in tillage, 13 as follows: The product at the time of purchase consisted entirely of hay, about twelve tons being pro duced of inferior quality. The c rops of the fifth year alter purcliase were tnirty tons of good hay, cue hundred bushels of potatoes, twenty-five bushels of good wheat, one hundred and fifty bushels of corn, seventy-five bushels cf turnips.and one and a halt tons 01 grapep, m-siues other fruits in considerable quantities. There was a steady increas in the amount of crops each year, notwith standing a series of most unfavorable seasons. Miss Kllpsnn's Jewels Recovered1.'

Miwiri llqnihliean, September 1 . Wood-rigcons. Giime-keeDers and naturalists ore ntrr-prl that the wood-pigeon is, after all, the worst of the farmers' foes. It has hitherto enjoyed a sort of indirect pro tection, inasmuch as its natural enemies th kite and hawk have been well- nigh exterminated, and the gun tax ef-fix-t.iinllv discourages the efforts to des troy it which were once made by the rustic. As the season is now commencing when the bird begins to be injurious, it may be as well to offer some inducements for its pursuit. Of course, every one knows that tho wood-pigeon is good eating ; indeed, a " quist with a red herring in it" is regarded by west country folk as the greatest of table deli, cacies. But every one does not know what Mr. Walters has learned in China namely, that its flesh composes the mind of him who partakes of it, and enables him to do with little sleep. Moreover. " its foot and leg bones have the very delightful quality of exciting attection between nuaoano ana wue. ai on the fifth day of the fifth moon the husband takes one ot these nones ana the wife takes one, each putting the bone in a basin of water, one from the left and the other from the right side, the two bones will come together and float together, thus indicating a long and happy union to the parties tryin the experiment.

Mieliiui Sullivant's Illinois Furr.i. A visit to the farm of Mr. Sullivant, in Vermilion county, Illinois, is of itself worth a t.rin. and its management a subject full of entertainment. The farm contains forty thousand acres in ono tract. Much of this land was entered by Mr.' Sullivant years ago at a very small sura per acre, something less than $2. The land is now worth about $40 an acre, and is rapidly increasing in value, for the soil itself is eminently pro ductive, rich and loamy, fertile prairie land, with an occasional forest, mainly of oak trees. The extent of this tract may be conceived When it is stated that one may ride directly from his house, in more than the one direction ho may choose, six miles before leaving his ter ritory. Mr. Sullivant is a thorough farmer, and one of tha old pioneers in the art and science, as he is now tne nrst, greatest, most practical and scientific farmer perhaps of the age. The estate in divided into farms Ot nve tuousanu acres each, which are known by their numbers. Between each ot them runs a boulevard, eighty feet in width, bounded on ranh side bv a nne nenge. nuvu farm is thus enclosed, and entrusted to a reliabla tenant, who has his residence and a requisite number of houses for his laborers. Thore are four or five hundred men engaged on the entire place. jNear the residence of Mr. Sullivant is quite a village., inhabited by the men in his em nlov : there is a blacksmith's shop, with four fires, au immense building, devoted to the protection of the agricultural im plements, being quite conspicuous. Every improvement in such implements has been seized on by this great farmer, who at the same time is careful of his stock, and has his hundreds of ploughs narpfullv cleaned and varnished when they are put away for a season. There are several hundred horses there, but this number is only eo smull from the fact that Mr. Sullivant is not a stock raiser. The main energy of this year's farmiug is devoted to the raising of 10, (1(1(1 anre.s of corn. Twenty thousand dollars' worth of lumber has just been received, to be applied to the erection of barns and elevators. 1 he proprietor ex- pects to raise 200,000 bushels this year, and double the quantity next. Forty bushels to the acre is a small average. lAuiville Courier-Journal. No stable or barn-yard manures, ex cepting a few loads at the start, have been purchased during the five years, and the amount made upon tho premises has been small ; the 6tock until within the last year of the experiment consisted of only three cows, a pig and a horse. At presont the farm sustains eleven cows and heilers, three norses, a ig. imu uur iner cart of the vear, a yoke ot oxen. Tha fertilizing substances used, of which an accurate uccount has been kept, embrace the entire range of those agents which chemistry suggests, and those which have been brought to notice through the recommendation of farmers and experimentors bones, athes, lime salt, tho nitrates of potassa and soda, sulnhate of ammonia, carbonate ammo. nia, plaster, potash, fish pomace, shorts, muck, horn shavings, &e. The results of these experiments are very interesting, and give much force to what we have otten urged, tnat those who use these fertilisers should devote them primarily to the improvement f their land. The conipunnta wo so oiten hear of failure to get adequate return for the expenditure incurred, when ap plied directly to tue wheat crop, wcicu has of late veora been more uncertain than usual, would cease to bo heard if they wero made the basis of improve' ment by securing first an abundant veg ctablo growth to be returned to the land, or a thick-set sward, while these would bring a more 6ure return ot grain or other crop without exhausting the land. We need the exercise of more pa tience in waiting the return of our ex penditure 1a cropping, and it should be the leading thought in this as in all wo do, that we cannot look ior permanent success unless the condition of land and its constant improvement be tho fir: care.
