Some Itaiiill*etled very well with it during the'Ptalt ~,:se, ; others have found that their ortrywas badly winter-killed. A friend writes us that when his farm was ; neW,tilhegenerally sawed his wheat on w 14114 called a burn, he could raise win-; ter what and winter rye with good SUC eBstiligi*ae he came to the plow he 1i:13 l b - ern very unsuccessful with the win ter-kiraitts—kind he asks if there is any remedy. We have seen some excellent croitiettlitinter wheat on the new lands of tliiA'ribtitook and Madawaska. On such lanAto,liittre is a few inches of a light vege ta*. and. partially decomposed mould, w bieh atbti as a protection to the roots of the ;Alcor," trod prevents the surface of the soil heing lifted up by the frosts of spring. therishybreaking off the roots of the wheat ancLitlecayidt ;it. On ploughed lands therfili none of this covering, and the soil is tible to the lifting by frost, and the wheat constantly suffers as above stated. Wtqar,o9l know, from ally practical ex perience, the best mode of preventing wheat, thus sowed on plowed ground, be ing winter-killed; but nature would seem to point 4,14 the. fact _that if the soil cony be tobvered with a similar coating of light muck or mould, as it is in case of burnt land, the object would he accomplished.— We will give you some observations puh lished in the transactions of the New York Agricultural Society, by Thomas Mellen, of Madison, in that State, on this subject. lgtiny years since, says he, I knew a farmer in the county of Saratoga, to suc ceed well in cultivating a crop of full sown wheat, when his neighbors wholly failed and abandoned the crop, by reason of its being frolen out. This successful farmer pre pared manure from his barn-yard, the strew, scrapings of the yard lee., and put th4oe ingredients into compost heaps.— slimmer followed and sufficiently plow editis lands, from which he had taken a crep, and then smoothed the furrows with theinurow. He then drew out his corn-I post matinee, twenty-five or thirty loads to the acre, and harrowed it in, thus incorpor ating the surface of the soil and the ma num together. The result was that he always succeeded with his crop of winter wheat, when his neighbors, who pursued a different culture, failed. Ills wheat. thus treated, was never winter-killed. Af ter becoming acquainted with the circum mince, Mr. M. adds that he communica ted the plan to others, who tried it and succeeded completely. .110 also relates the following experiment. tried by his brother, which we think will be %Wresting to our friends , who are desi rous of trying the winter wheat culture.— The soil on which the experiment was trielf;airai asleep, friable loam with a sou thern ,exposure. After ploughing he smoothed the furrow with the harrow, on the t ,part. he proposed to top dress. He then_ 'carried on thirty loads to the acre of tho manure of the yard that had accumula ted by bedding both neat cattle and sheep, the previous winter. It had laid through the summer, and had not been in compost helots, which: would have been better, but it 4 wis pretty well rotted. This was even ly wpread over a part of the field, he not having enough to spread ()e'er more than oisktalf the field in question. On this be .4?iedt his seed wheat, and at the same tints the residue of the field, anil harrowed the, whole in. wheat that was top dressed bad in the fall evidently the most luxuriant growth. led all the field looked promising. When the snow disappeared in the spring. the wheat was green, and looked well; but during, the month of April, thawing and freezing commenced, and continued for a considerable length Of time, interspersed with oeensional snow squalls, and some' rzip, sufficient to keep the top of the ground moist, and exposed to the action of the treat: The result was, that the wheat oa that. part of the field not top dressed, soon ] afebnied a blanched appearanet, while the coact' part renuinedeomparatively as green I as baste; and the wheat on the part not tniflotseetl was almost entirely killed, so that he sewed it to spring wheat, while the pOilitrtf .was top dressed was not injured Ity-ehokost, but produced a good crop of hiiir headed and well filled wheat.

This is one of the most astonishing cure* on record, aod, itwill be seen, is attested by the Rev. Mr. Srazwr, end by other citizens of that district; • ' . ' PHILADIILPHIA, AtIGUST 11,1847. Near'the'elose of the year 1845,1 had an Wade' of the Pleurisy and while recovering from it, 1 r took severe cold. My condition soon became alarming and I grew gnsduelly worse and worse. The symptoms manifested by my disease were those ordinarily found in pulmonary , affections—s but mine were of an exceedingly aggraveted chin- acter. For a long period I expectorated a great quantity of matter, which appeared a mixture of ' pus and blood.—at times it seemed as ill was dis charging Itie very substance of the Lungs. My voice was gone so as„, to be unable to utter a few words without great difficulty, amid I experienced a thoutand other painfuleensations that cannot be told. One of the moat unpleasant attendants of my disease were chilling sweats. The cold perspiration ran from me continually; not only at night, but also dining the day so as to keep my cloths at all times continually wet, I employed every means of cure I could hear, and was attended by several eminent and skillful Physicians. But the obstinacy of my disease baffled all their efforts. They indeed .raised me from my beat, but they also pronounced me incur able. 'rho last Physician attending me, told me at one time, that I had but a few days to live—at another time I might linger on a tew weeks or months, but that it was utterly impossible that I could get well, or ever be able to attend to my business. Thus, with no prospect of recovery I lingered on during the greater part of the year 1846—for three months of which period my friends sat up with me, expecting every night to see my sufferings end in death. But last fall, a lady residing in Southwark, who had been cured of somewhat similar suffering* by ."lhompson's Compound Syrup of Tar and N aph tha," came and urged upon me a trial of it. Al most despairing of any relief, anihkith no hope of recovery, I commenced its use. Imagine then my satisfaCticin in being able to state that I am NOW WELL! and I attribute my restorationen. tirely to the wonderful efficacy 01 the above medi cine. Froth the time I commenced its use, the disease began to yield its hold upon me, and by steady perseverance in its employment I may say • has raised me horn the grave. All unpleasant . . symptoms have vanished and I have for several months attended to my business as formerly ,and (except some less degree ttl strength than I once possessed ,0 as well as ever. People come from various places to see me, in quiring for the man curd of Consumption! Those who have known me and are well acquainted nith my long continued afflictions, s:op with astonish ment when they meet me, at seeing the wonderful change wrought by thence of the above medicine.
