So serious has bellarthe evil to the agricultural inter eiau, that both men of science and the pracVeld faimers have given much at tention to investigating the cause of the potato disclose, and to the discovery of is remedy. day gr two since, we received a letterfron; Irwin Sam soon, Esq., a very intelligent limner, who has tilLid the Molj ajj the days of his life iu the rich sigtitg4r, pear dew Wilmiagton, in Law plies twenty, in which he gives what be aleites a siwi pie and cheap preventive at Op potato rot. Ile is 'satisfied, from agperlments which he hiinsAf has made, - tbst the following is n sure remedy for the evil: Take a double handful of well rotted oak wood, and scatter it upon the soul potatoes in the lull, and then cor m w ith earth in the usual manner, acid there will be no signs of rot. Ile made the discovery three yea rs ago, in a clear tiotjust made and planted with pota ne observed that where the routs of.r.po,tato came in contact with , the bill was entirely rotten, but that In adjoining hills, where the roots onst,ig nimtnet with the old rotten oak WOOd Qf the clearing, every potato was 110o$ and dry. In bills where there' weld neither ashes nor decayed oak , WOO, the potatoes were about one half' rotten. Taking the hint from these ob =tj.ons, M. S.unpson has tested the very fur three years past, and has Poitor4 /fowl a dim:ll-t.LI potato in the J 4,10 Where the pulverized oak wood has been 4ppliQd, and in patches where there _arm* no decayed potatoes, the roots! +rope found to grow larger, healthier, j Aga or it better tlavor NN here the oak wood was used, than where it was not. gr. S. is but a plain, practical farmer, j pad does.not attempt to give a scientific' reasop Tor this result, but simply an• ponapes' the - fact, and the results of his experiments. It is well known that . the oak possesses high"antiseptic and other peculiar qualities, as tannin enters largely into its composition. It is for scientific men to ascertain what is the 'peculiar principle which produces this - result. The farmer can avail himself of "_the knowledge of the fact that it does prevent the potato rot, for Mr. Samp- OlOn's statements are fully reliable. I.:ve y. one who cultivates the soil, in this part of the country at least, can re-tdily obtain rotten oak wood in sufficient uantities to make the experiment fur imself with all the potatoes ho may plant. The discovery is an important one, and we hope our readers in the country districts will try the expeii meta this season, and communicate to us in the fall the result for publication. --Pittsburg• Post. • The Farmer's Creed. Ono of our exchangas gives the fol lowing first-rate advice tinder the head ing -9i " The Farmer's Creed :" We believe in small farms and thor /Nigh cultivation. The sold loves to eat its well as its owners, and, therefrre, to be- nurtured. We believe in ;ergo • crops, which leave the land better than twi found it—making both the farm 14Fancr rich at once. We believe ite going to the bottom of things, and, therefore, in deep plowing, and enough Df it---all the better, if with a subsoil ' plow. Ws believe that the best fertili , 1.y..0f any soil is the spirit of industry, enterprise and intelligence; without this, Time and gypsum, bone and green manure, marl or plaster, will be of little see. We believe in a clean kitchen, a neat wife in it, a spinning piano, a clean gsiphoard, dairy and conscience. We thinly disbelieve in farmers that will not improve; in farms that grow poor sw every year; in starved cattle; in SlP.reser's boys turned into clerks and werebants ; in farmer's daughters un witting to work, and in all farmers . who ere ashamed of their vocation. Lime for Potatoes. A comspondent of the Scientific \American, Smith Groom, of Troy, N. Y„ says, that his experience in the cul ture of liotatocs has convinced him that about a handrail of dry slacked lime placed in each hill tends to pre vent the p9tuto rot. The lime, he Mates, brings potatoes earlier to matur ity, arid imparts to them a vigor which realists the attacks of the disease. An -experiment with lime can he conducted by any of our farmers at x small ex pense, and if it does not prevent the po t4to rot, the lime will certainly enrich the soil for other crops. V." A Remedy for Rata. Whin a house is infested by %rats which refuse to niblilo at the usual, baits, a few drops of the high v see ted pH of rhodium, poured on,the bo — friTm of a ca ge trap, will almost invariably at-i tract it full of the "mischievous var.! mints."

Important Discovery. C°N.SUMPTIOI and all Diseases of the Lungs and Throat are positively Cured by Inhalation, which conveys the remedies to the cavities in the lungs through the sit passages, and coming in direct contact with the disease, neutralizes the tubercular matter, allays the cough. causes a free and easy ex pectoration, heals the longs, purifies the blood, imparts renewed' vitality to the nervous system, giving that tone and energy so indis pensable for the restoration of health. -To be able to state confidently that Consumption is mumbler by inhalation, is to me a source of unalloyed plearture. It is as much under the control of medical treatmeut as any other for midaMe disease; ninety out of every hundred eases can be cured in the first Mimes, and fifty per cent. in the second ; but in the third siege tt is impossible to save more than five per cent , for the Lungs are so cut up by the dis ease as to bid defiance to medical skill.— Even, however. in the last stages, Inhalation raids extraordinary• relief to the suffering Vending this fearful scourge, which annually destroys ninety-five thousand persons in the United States alone ; and a Eorreot calculation shown that of the present onpnlation et the earth. eighty millions are *tamed to/111 the Consumptive's grave. . Truly the quiver of death 'has no arrow so fatal as Consumption. In all ages it hair been the great enemy of life. for it spares neither age nor sex, but sweeps off alike the brave, the beautiful, the graceful and the gibed. c By the belp of that Supreme Being whom cometh every good and perfect gilt, I run enabled to offer to the afflicted a permanent and speedy cure in Consumption. The first cause of tubercles is from impure blood. and i the immediate effect produced by their deposition in the lungs 's to prevent the free admission of air into the air cells, which r causes a weakened vitality through the entire system. Then surely it is more rational to ex pect greater good from medicines entering the cavities of the lungs than from those admin istered through the stomach : the patient will always find the lungs free and the breathing easy, after Inhaling remedies. Thus, Inhala tion is a local remedy, nevertheless it acts constitutionally, and with more power and . certainty than remedies administered by the stomach. To prove the powerful and direct influence of this mode of adininistrat on, chloroform inhaled will entirely destroy senci• bility in a few minutes. paralyzing the entire nervous sy.teno. so that a limb may he am putated without the slightest pain : inhaling the ordinary burning gas will destroy life in a few hours. The inhalation of ammonia will rouse the system when fainting or apparently dead.— The odor of many of the medicines is percepti- I ble in the skin a few minutes after being in haled. and may be immediately detected in 1 the blood. A convincing proof of the consti ' tuiional effects of inhalation. is the fact that sickness is always produced by breathing foul air—is not this positive evidence that proper remedies. carefully prepared and judiciously administered through the lungs should pro duce the happiest iesti!ts ? During eighteen years' practice. many thonsands suffering front diseases of the lungs and throat, hare been under my care, and I have effected many remarkable cures, evert after the sufferers had been pronounced in the last stages. which , fully satisfies we that consumption is DO longer a fatal disease. My treatment of con sumi3tion is original, and founded on long ex perience and a thorough investigation. My perfect acquaintance with the nature of tuber cles, lc., enables me to distinguish readily, the various forms of disease that simulate con sumption, and apply the proper remedies, rare ly being mistaken even in a single ease. This familiarity, in connection with certain patho logical and microscopic discoveries, enables me to relieve the lungs from the effects of con tracted chests, to enlarge the chest, purify the blood, impart to it renewed vitality.; giving energy and tone to the entire system. Medicines with fall di;eotions sent to any part of the United States and Canada* by patients communicating their symptoms by letter. Bat the care would be more certain if the patiedt should pay me a visit, *limb would give me an opportunity to examine the lungs and enable ma to prescribe with much greater certainty; and then tbe'cure mild" be affeettarl unAtA.N. st.
