Snell Was the form of human , sacrif

was the Same that, often met the indig

progress through tb&country, and from
which they themselves were not ex
empted. - There .were, indeed, some
occasions when ' proliiminary tortures,
of the most exquisite kind, with which
it is unnecessary to shock the reader,
—were inflicted, but they always
terminated' with the bloody ceremony
above describedf lt should be.re

Human sacrifice - has • been practised'
itY many nations not „exCepting,-thO,
most nations of antiquity;.but
never by any on a scale, to be couipar-z
ed with those in Analmac. The amount
of victims immolated on ita • acctirsed
alters would stagger the faith of the least
scrupulous believer. - Se a rcely any au
per pretends to esthriate; the . ' yearly
eacritices throughout the empire, at
Jess than twenty thousand, an& some
carry the number as high. as fifty I
On great occasions, ' as thecorona
tion of a temple. the 'number becomes
,
still more appalling: At the dedication
of the great temple of. Ilaizilepotchli,
in 1480, the prisoners who for some
years had been' reserved for' Fite pur
pose, were drawn from all quarters to
the capital. They were ranged in tiles,
forming - a procession, nearly tttlia miles
long. The eerepaorty consumed sev
eral days,and seventy: thousand captives
are said to have perished at the shrine
of this terrible deity l—But. who can
believe thrit so nuntyrous a body would
have suffered themselies to be led un
resistingly like sheep to' the slaughter?
Or how could - their remains, too great
for C onsumption in the i ordinary way,
be disposed of. without, breeding a
pestilence the dapitall ..-Yet the
event 'was of recent date, andis so un
equivocally ,attested by the best inform
ed historians. One fact may - be con
sidered certain. It was customary to
preserve the skUlls of the sacrificed, in
buildings appropriated to the , purpose.
'The companions of Cortes counted one
hundred and thirty-Six thousand in •one
of these edifices 1 .--Witnout attempting
a precise calculation, therefore, it is
'safe to conclude that thousands were
yearly offered up, in the different cities
of Anahuac, on the bloody altars of the
Mexican divinities.—Prescote a -Con

Improvement of -old Fields:
- As there are doubtless many worn-out
fielas,- that have, for yeari, produced no
thing but, poverty grass, we should like
for some enterprising proprietors of such
to make effort to bring them back to a
state of fertility ; and would suggest that
by - sowing a bushel plastei, pe - r acre, on
them during the presentmonth, plough
ing them up as soon the spring crops are
in, and then sowing a bushel of buck=
. wheat to the acre, and ploughing tinit
crop in as soon
. as it gets into the blos
som, we have no doubt: that the soil
would hear a crop of, rye without any=
thing else ; and that, with' the addition.
Of five bushels of lime per acre, spread
.eveniy,'a very fait crOp of wheat might
be grown thereon, without any addition
Of manure; and we have:as little doubt,
• that clover seed might be sown the ensti
ingspring, with a good prospect of a fair
crop of grass, provided the plants 'were
plastered as soon' as
,soon as the wheat
-crop - was cut. We have • seen a very
good pasture of white clover produced by
the application cif plaster on, such fields
as 'we have described, Without - the aid of
any `other manure, by. simply' harrowing:
the ground . after the 'plaster
,had been
sown a few dayS, the precaution having•
been.taken, in sowing the plaster, to se
lect a moist day to iio it in ; and 'we can'
see no reason to doubt that; with the ad- -
dition of a green' crop ploughed in, a ve
ry fair one of 'grain might be grown.-1-
The cost of such an experiment as we
have. -.soggested, is comparatively so
small, that we hope' smite one will test it.

-The whole 'fields had the: appearance of

Orows, and then the lands and furrows
wore carefully cleared out, and where, it
was -necessary, , there were cross-cuts i
emptying into these long, furrow drains,
