    Lime and its use in Agriculture.
Lime is one 'of the nsort abundant sub
stances in nature—usually as a carbonate,
'consisting of 561 parts of carbonate, and 4:11
'of carbonic acid, in 100 of the mineral. Iu
burning the acid escapes in the form of
steam. It is then quick lime. After expo-
Sure to the atmosphere, it absorbs water
slacks, and falls into an apparent dry pow
der; it is then hydrate of lime, and is in the
form in which it is generally used for agri
'cultural purposes. It is the most valuable.
'when used directly after it was fallen into
-powder. If long exposed to rain and , dews
'before being spread upon the land it loses a
'great portion of its fertilizing powers, which
principally consist in its action upon vega
ble matters, causing them to, decompose.
'and in its neutralising power upon acids,
which abound in the same soils.
The quantity of Lime to the .Icre.- 7 —ln
Great Britain from 100 to 400 bushels are
applied at once, at intervals of ten fifteen, or
nineteen years—the term which leases run.
In this country, the most common practice
is to apply 30 0r.40 bushels once in three
.years, which is the preferable mode. We
`have seen it applied with good effect, how
ever, at the rate of 800 bushels to. the acre.
This was upon a very stiffcold clay. Three
'hundred bushels would be about ten tons to
'the acre. Ten inches depth of soil, would
weigh about 1000 tons. That would give
one per cent of soil would give one per cent
of lime. A case is reported in England, of
soil upon Which 120 bushels of lime had
been used, being analyzed, which apparent
ly contained the same component parts as
that along side, which had not been limed
for a number of years. Yet the limed land
produced 20 tons of turnips to the acre,
while the unlimed portion only produced
two tons, tops and all. This was upon red
sand-stone land. One of the effects of lime
is, it gives the soil power to absorb ammonia
front the atmosphere, and retain that which
is disengaged by decomposition of vegeta
ble matter and manure in the soil. Ilence
the importance of applying lime with green
crops, or using coarse manure with the lime.
Indications of want of Lime in the soil,
may be seen in heavy crops of straw, and
light crops of grain, and in the root crops
where they seem to run to fingers and seed.
Experiments should be made by every
farmer with lime upon various crops in all
his fields, to ascertain whether lime would
he beneficial to him. Very few places will
he found where it will not he so.
To apply Lime to the Soil, spread it
evenly upon a crop of clover about to be
plowed under, or sow it upon the surface
with the wheat, and harrow thoroughly. It
should never be combined with manure,
unless the whole immediately plowed in.
To what Soil is Lime applicable .?-
Every clay soil, every peaty soil, and every
sail in which vegetable fibre does not readi
ly decay, because that is a sign that it con
tains some antiseptic acid, which prevents
decay. This is the case in peat beds and
swam ps,sand y. gravelly, or t hi n soils, may be
overlimed and injured ; because in causing
the decay of vegetables, it sets free the am
monia. the very substance of fertility requir
ed. To prevent this more food must be giv
en for the lime to act upon. No farmer
who knows what the action of lime is upon
all soils will ever do without it, as an acces
sory to his manure. It is a component part
of all crops grown by the farmer. When
applied to lands which had not borne wheat
for many years it has nt once restored it to
fertility for that crop. Where it has failed
once to remunerate the farmer using it, it
has proved of the greatest benefit a hundred
times.
Use Lime with Peat.--The slow de
composition of peat is an objection to its use.
By the term, we mean all swamp muck par
taking more or less of that character. All
peat contains resinous matter, which pre
vents decompositions. I3y adding lime,
the resin is combined and forms a soap, and
the fibre then decays as rapidly as any
other vegetable substance.
Lime in the Snit —Many fartm3 which
once produced good crops of tvlirat because
there was lime enough in the soil to supply
the requisite quantity to the grain, have
ceased to be productive. They still pro-
duce a large growth of straw, but not a re
munerating crop of grain. In some instan
ces, such lands have been restored to their
former fertility without applying a bushel
of lime. Do you ask how ? Simply by
plowing deeper. In the hard untouched
and unexhausted subsoil, there was plenty
of lime lying hid, which only wanted stir
ring up and exposing to the action of the at
mosphere; and bringing within reach of the
roots of the plants, to produce the same efThct
orignally derived front the top soil before it
was exhausted. Our constant advice will
be to use lime, plow deep;subsoil and drain
stiff lands increase your crops, and grow
rich, which you will do if you read and heed.
The Rail Car--Vivid Description.
Would you like the luxury of a new sen
sation ? Take your stand six feet from a
railroad track in the night, and wait the
passage of an express train. There is no
wind stirring. Clouds close in the light of
the stars. The hum of life has ceased.—
Blackness and. silence brood together upon
the face of the earth. Afar off the listening
car catches a dawning roar. Half heard
•and half felt—it grows into inure distinctness
—partly revealed by the trembling of the
solid earth, and partly felt as a sharpless
horror' filling the air. Every second swells
its awful volume, and deepens its terror.—
'The earth now quakes under its tread—a
blazing glare flashes living horror into the
surrounding air—and you see, crawling
-along in snaky track, with firey head
crouched to the ground, and its long train
swinging from side to side with a wavy mo
tion.--a gigantic and terror breathing mon
ster, instinct with life and power, crushing
the earth with its tread, and creating a
pvhirlwind with ite blasting breath as it
sweeps along. Is there anything in the
world which impresses the mind with a
profounder sense of resistless power .than
that enormous mass, with its blazing eyes
and smekey breath—rushing with the speed
of a common ball, and startling the air and
earth With the overwhelming horror of its
flight? What would the savage think see
ing it for the first time ? Imagine such a
flight across the country fifty years ago•
unheralded by a rumor of its coining--re
vealing its existence by the presence and
rushing suddenly into oblivion as it now
rushes darkness while you gaze upon the
spot where it disappeared, and hear only
the faint echo of its distant tread. What
rumors of it would fill the earth.—What
takes of its grandeur—of its speed and pow
er—would startle the credulity of the re
motest gvillage gossip.—New York Times.
Louis Napoleon Speech.
The late speech of Louis Napoleon scorns
to have opened the eyes of the people of
France to the true character of the usurper.
Letters from Paris allude to the effect it has
produced -which is certainly. not favorable
to the Prince President, and the uprising of
the people upon an attempt to assume a
"new title," plainly hinted at by him, would
not surprise as. A recent letter thus refers
to the subject. •
"The speech of the President has been re
ceived by the French people with the ut
most astonishment ; and I shall be the echo
of a large number of the-Parisians-.when.(
say'that it was considered, on the whole as
the greatest piece of impudence and bold
ness ever revealed to an assembly. Who
could have belived that Louis Napoleon
would have said that after the 13th of June
184 P!;, it'svas equally easy for him to change
the form of the government, but he would
not do so'. .Was not General Changarnier
at that epoch, the chief master and lender
of France? 1 . 2 e not the hero of the
day ? And what inThsence had Louis Na
poleon ? None. This is the only true
question. Louis Napoleon threatens, that
if the parties, by their attacks, endanger the
welfare of the country, then, only then it
might' be reasonable to ask the people, for
the repose of France for a new title calcu
lated to fix irrevocably on.my head the pow
er with which it has invested me." Is not
this clear and understandable? What is
the ambition of Louis Napoleon ? The ti
tle of an Emperor ; and though he .confesses
that he will ask it of the nation, no one can
rely upoif his assertion, and the people are
sure that he will take it under the slightest
pretext, and that this event wi!l soon take
place. When the President says, We may
preserve the Republic which threatens no
one and may tranquilize all,' it is certain
that he does not mean a word of what he says.
In short this speech of Louis Napoleon has
revived a great deal of hatred towards him,
and will augment the nu!nbcr of his enemies.
The opinion of all wise men is, that if he
wished ,to follow a wise plan, and be satis
fied with his title of President for ten years,
the majority of the French people would
frankly accept his actual position, and rank
among his partizans ; whilst his ambitious
prospects are hurting the greatest part of
the French people and are working against
his safety and the tranquillity of France."
I Man Found Dead upon his Feet.
Last season an eccentric man, 50 or GO
years old, an Englishman, who had served
through the warwith Mexico, was dischar
ed honorably from the service. Ile had con
siderable money, and he went out seven or
eight miles northwest of Si. Paul, near
White Bear Lake, to make a farm. He
built a snug cabin fenced a piece of ground
with a board fence digging a hole near the
foot of each fence•post like a grave, which
holes he said were fur witnesses. He sup
plied himself, before winter, with abundance
of provision, and then alone (kilned up for
lie winter. Ile had neighbors, to be sure
within a mile or two; but with them he had
no intercourse. One day last week a citi
zen of St. Paul, acquainted with Stean, on
his way out to Bear Lake, was induced to
go and see what had become of the old man.
They went to the door found it fastened,
and the snow untrotidun, that had fallen
long before. They succeeded at last in
opening the shutter of his only window. and
by the dim light saw him upon his feet,
leaning upon his bunk. The party hasten•
ed back to St. Paul, and returned with the
coroner to the cabin. Having forced the
door open which was fastened strongly in
side with props and braces they entered and
found deceased, as before stated dead, upon
his feet, his left hand upon his lbrehead, the
body frozen, and by his side, on the bunk,
a bowl of frozen water, and near by a plate
of cheese and perhaps of bread. tie wore
several pairs of pantaloons, and had folded
around his body s'2O7 in gold, and -ill one of
his pockets, two or three dollars in sil ve r.—
llis bedding was very little ; but then, he
could not have frozen to death. Ile had
evidently been dead for some weeks, and
propably being sick and unable to get upon
his bed, unaided, died in making the attempt.
His effects were taken charge of by the
Judge of Probate, and will be duly admin
istered upon. Ilis body was taken to St.
Paul, and being thawed out in warm water,
was straightened, laid in a coffin and decent
ly buried. Sowewhere doubtless, in the .
world there beats the heart of some one who
would if there present have knelt down in
sorrow and wept tears of affection and an
guish upon- the last remains of the strange
man—John Stean.—Pivecr, Sprit 11111.
Manuring Corn.
11. Jones Brooke communicates to the
Farm Journal an experiment in applying
manure of "pondrette," which costs :to cts.
per
,bushel.to a patch of corn planted in a
piece of poor soil. He put about a gill in a
hill dropped the corn thereon, and found
the following result in the harvest : —On
the first four rows, manured he had twenty
baskets full of well matured corn ; on the
first four without Manure fourteen basket of
inferior corn ;•on the third four rows, man
ured, nineteen ; on the next four rows, not
manured, fourteen baskets same quality as
before, and a throughout, which shows
the great advantage of• manuring corn in
the hill.
An Englishman's Idea of America.
A Yankee traveller in England tells the
following story of a wheelwright, whom he
met in a provincial town : The tender-heart
ed wheelwright, could hardly believe that
I was really born and brought up in Amer
ica. He never thought any foreigners
could learn to speak the language so
well. He too was rather favorably struck
with the idea of going to America when I
answered his inquiries with regard to me
chanics' wages. He was very cautious,
however, and cross-questioned me a long
time about the cost of every thing there—
the passage, the great heat of the climate,
the price of beer ; and at length; touching
his particular weakness he desired to be
told candidly how it would be if he should
marry before he went. If he should get a
wife, a real handsome one, would it be
safe for him to take her there ? He had
heard a story—perhaps we knew whether
it was_ true .or not—of a man who took a
handsome wife out with him, and n black
man, that was a great rich lord in our coun
try, took a great liking to her which he re
fused ; and so the great black lord went
away very wroth and vexed. When he
was gone, the woman upbraided her hus
band : Thou fool, why didst thee not take
it and let me go with him ? I would have
returned __to _thee _to-morrow." Then the
man followed after the black lord, and sold
his wife to hint for ten thousand pounds.—
But the next day she did not return, nor the
next, neither the next and so the man went
to look for her; and lo ! he found her all
dressed up in silk and satin, 'lighting from
a coach, and footmen waiting upon her.—
So - he says to her, "Why didst-thee not re
turn next day ?" "Dost take me for a fool
goodman ?"iluoth she, and stepped back in
to her fine coach and drov.e oil; and so he
lost his handsome wife.
Mystery of the American Lakes,
Lake Erie is only GO or 70 feet deep, but
the bottom of Lake Ontario, which is 452
feet deep, is 230 feet below the tide-level of
the ocean, or as low as most parts of the
Gulf 'of St. Lawrence ; and the bottoms of
Lakes Huron, Michigan, and Superior, al
though their surface is on a level with the
bottom of Lake Ontario. Now, as the dis
charge throne - 4i the river Detroit, after al
lowing (or the full probable portion carried
off by evaporation, does not appear by any
means equal to the quantity of water which
the three upper great lakes receive, it has
been conjectured that a subterranean river
may run from Lake Superior to Huron,
and from Huron to Lake Ontario. This
conjecture is by no means improbable, and
accounts for the singular fact that salmon
and herring are caught in all the lakes com
municating with the St. Lawrence, but in
no others. As the Falls of Niagara must
have always existed, it would puzzle the
naturalists to say how these fish got into
upper lakes without some such subter
ranean river; moreover, any periodical ob
struction of this river would furnish a not im
probable solution of the mysterious flux and
reflex of the lakes.
