Ma. Editor ;-*-l notice communicalioOs
giving the result* of experience in the use of
various fertilizers for iKe corn crop, and i
propose to give you sn accidental experiment
of my own. About four years ago 1 planted
with small eight-rowed, yellow corn, near the
middle qf May, a field of five acres, which
bad lain in pasture for a dozen years or
more, and was turned under just before plant
ing. The corn came op looking yellow and
•(anted, and grew very slowly. When I had
completed the first hoeing, I considered the
prospects of a crop desperate indeed. I had
n couple of barrels of salt unfit for any do
mestic-purpose. I made a comport by mix
ing four bushels of ashes with one of plaster
and one half bushel of salt, and applied n
small handful to each hill, about the roo.s of
the corn. The effect was truly surprising.
Within a very few days the color changed to
a luxuriant green, and my workmen asserted
“they could fairly see it grow.” The result
was, I harvested 60 bushels per acre of the
soundest, heaviest corn, (weighing 62 lbs. per
bushel,) where at one time I did not expect
one-sixth of that amount. I have since tried
all combinations of ashes and plaster without
salt, but never with.snch marked results.
lo looking over the American Muck Book
I find an analysis of the corn crop, that gives
potash and soda as pmong its most import
ant constituents. Potash is supplied by wood
ashes, and soda by common salt, (chloride
of Sodium .) —Iherefore, it strikes one that
the union of these two must make a powerful
manure for this important crop, upon all soils
not already overcharged with these elements.
As plaster is an acknowledged friend of this
grain, an addition ( of this mixture must en
hance its value, and aid in the preparation of
proper food for Iho growing nlsnis. I would
like to hear from farmers who have had ex
perience in the use pf compost upon this and
other crops, especially compost of which salt
has formed a part. J- B. S.

Spare tbe Little Bird*.
The swallows are the natural enemies of
the swarming insects, living almost entirely
upon them, taking their food upon the wing.
Tbe common martin devours great quantities
of wasps, beetles and goldsmiths. A single
bird*wi(l devour five thousand butterflies in a
week. The moral of this is that the hus
bandman should cultivate the society of the
swallows and martins about his land and out
buildings.
The sparrows and wrens feed upon the
crawling insects which lurk within the buds,
foliage, and flowers of plants. The wrens
are pugnacious, and a little box in a cherry
tree will soon be appropriated by them, and
they will drive away other birds that feed
upon the fruit, a hint that cherry growers
ought now to remember and net upon.
The thrushes, blue birds, jays and crows,
prey upon butterflies, grasshoppers, crickets,
locusts and the larger beetles. A single fam
ily of jays will consume 20,000 of these in a
season of three months.
The woodpecker* are armed with a stout
long bill, lo penetrate the wood of trees, in
which the borers deposit (heir larvae. They
live almost entirely upon these worms.
For the insects which come abroad only
during the night, nature has provided a check
in the nocturnal birds, of the whippoorwill
tribe and the little barn owl, which take their
food upon the wing.
How wonderful is this provision of Provi
dence for the restraint of the depredators that
live upon the labors of man; and how care
ful we should be not to dispute (hat beneficial
law of compensation by which all things aro
preserved in their just relations and propor

Natural History of tlie Isocost.
The following information concerning the
habits of the seventeen year locust, given by
a writer in the Boston Advertiser, .will be

insects, during their present appearance:

ovendesperate disease* ofA* lunge,- by its ewe.
Wbenooeo tried 1 its superiority over every other
medicine ofils kind, is todappareut toesospeobser
ration, and where jta virtues are known, the public
no longer heallafc what l antidote to employ for the
distressing.and dangerous affection* at An pttlmo
; nary organs, which are incident to out climate.
NpAiug lias called louder for the earnest enquiry
Of medical' men, than thr alarming prevalence and
Slaliiyof consumptive Complaints, nor hastily one
class of diseases hod mom of their investigations
; find care. Bot as yet no od equate remedy has heed
I provided, on which 11(0 public could depend for pro.
lection from attacks upon the respiratory organs, nn.
till the introduction of the CHERRY PECTORAL.
This articiois the prodoct of a long, laborious, and
I believe succesafol endeavor, to famish the commu
nity with such a remedy. Of this lost statement
the. American people are now themselves prepared Ip
judge, and Lnppeal with confidence to their decision
if there is any depen dance to be-placed in what men
of every dlasq and station certify ft has done for them,
if we can trust our own senses, when we sec dan.
geroug affections of the throat and lungs yield to it,
if we can depend on (bo assurance of intelligent phy
sicians, who make it theif business to know,—in
short, if Aero is any reliance upon anything, then
is it irrefutably proven that tills medicine does re
lieve and docs cure Ac class of diseases it is de
signed for, beyond any and ail others Aatnre know,
to mankind. If (his be true, it cannot be too freely
published, nor be to widely known. The afflicted
should know it. A remedy Ast cores, is priceless
to them. Parents should know it, their children are
riccless to Aem. All should know it, for health can
can be priced to no one. Not only should it be cir.
culatcd nore, but everywhere, not only in Ais conn
try bot in all countries. How faithfully wc have
actcdtoaUiis conviction, is shown in the foot that
already Ais article has made tho circles of Ae globe.
The sun never seta on its limits. No continent is
without it, and bot few peoples. AlAoagb not in,so
genera) use A other nations as in Ais, it is employ,
ed by the more intelligent in almost all civilized
countrice. It is extensively employed in both Amur
ica. in Europe, Asia, Africa, Australia and Ae far
off islands of Ao sea. Life is as dear to its posses
sors there os here, and (hey grasp at a valuable re
medy with even more avidity. Unlike most prepa
rations of its kind, it is an expensive composition of
costly materials. Still it is afforded to the public
at a reasonably low price, and what is of vastly more
importance to Aem, its quality is never suffered to
decline from its original standard of excellence.
Every bottle of Ais medicine, now manufactured, is
as good ns ever has been made heretofore, or as we
arc capable of making. No toil or cost is spared, in
maintaining it in Ac best perfection which it is pos
sible to jirodnf*. ' Hence Ae patient who procures
the genuine Cireaav Peotoexl, can rely on having
os good an article as has ever been had by those
who testify to its cures.
By pursuing this course, I have tho hope of doing
some good in the world, as well as Ae satisfaction
of believing Aat much has been done already.
