been exposed for a consi 'arable t'lne to
the violence of I.out, an 1 have lost tljeir

or other influence?. The latter comprise
those su''stances u ually known under
the names of Lime, Chalk, Plaster, or
(ij/p.*uni, Marl, Magnesia, ii~c.
In treating of these manures, the wri

cipally to their natures, properties, sour

their preparation and application to the
soil, or to ctpps. as connected with the
leading principles of practical and scien

self of every aperies of insinuation that
will throw any light on their u=es, appli

Lime, one of the triost widely diffused
gub.-tances in Nature, called by chemists
wot ocii/fl of mil ium , is extensively dis
tributeu throughout thin earth and its in
habitants, combined principally with car
boiiie, ,-ulj bin if. Iphoric,lphoric, fluoric, flu
oric, butnic tind silicic acids in the form

consist of a phosphate of lime which, iu
all cases, is associated With fluoride of

stuiic is occur in the mineral phosphorite,
or native phosphate of lime. Indeed, it
is a remarkable fact, that all the great geo
logical formations, of' which lime is the
prominent ingredient, are found to con
si-t of the aggregated skeletons, shells, or
casts of myriads of invertebrate animals
whith liad existed at some period long
before the crention of man.
From the dense: t and hardest limestone
to the softest chalk, the entire mass gen
erally resolves itself ultimately into a
congeries of animaJ remains ; and hence
tho great supply of lime in the mineral
state arises from tho destruction of its an
imal sources. The lime, therefore, which
exists in Nature, must be looked upon as
being .continually in a state of passage
between the organic and the inorganic
kingdoms. The plants that grow upor.
the soil take up, by dissolution in their
juices, salts of lime, which pass into tne
snbsiance of the animal that feeds upon
them, and accumulating in its system'
they afford materials for the proper de
development of tho skeletons, the hair,
the skin, and tho softer parts.
"When the animal dies, the blood, mus
clos, and other tissues, ether-serve for
the nutrition of mc other animal, or.
■being totally dee.mi; i.-cd, its elements re
turn again to a mineral s'ate, to DC, in al

during a kmir Tears" rotation, amounts i n
an average of 242 pounds, which arc
"•((U tl tonhout 43.J pounds of carbonate
if liujc in a state of marl, shell sand, oi
limestone gravel It is obvious, there
fore, that one id the most intelligible
purposes served by this substance as a
chemical ,eoii"titucit of (bo soil, ig, to
supplj this comparatively Urge quantity
yhich, in sonic form or other, must enter
into tne roots of the pi: nts But all
crop* do not contain lime in the same pro
portion, and the quantities are not con
stant even iu the same plant. Wheat,
especially, contains much more when it is
grown upon hind to which lime has been
copiously applied, yet, the variable quan-
contained in out economical j lants, j
show that one ronton why lime favors the
gr. wth of some crops wore than < th> rs
is, that some artuu.lv take up i In ger
quan ity of it in their food. These crop > !
there! ore, require the presenoe cf lime in
g'tatir proportion iu tho soil, in ord r
tlmt they may be able to obtain it so
readily that no delay may occur in the
of thtse functions, or in the .
grow h of those parts to which lime is in- !
dispensable.
This substance is usually obtained by i
exposing pure limestone or chalk, which J
are carbonates of lime, to a red beat, and
is then popularly known under the names j
of stom—lim*, q»uMim\ hot lime, burned
!,'ni' , and caustic time. It ift also obtain
ed, in an impure state, by burning oyster
shells or the shells of other fish, which
converts them into quicklime, and is com
monly called nyslershell lime, or simply
shell lime.
When stone-lime is exposed to the air,
jt rapidly absorbs water, and falls to a
pure, white, earthy powder, increasing two
or three times its buik, and forminga hy
drate ol lime, which is usually known
under the name of air slaekcd or s/»»i
--taneomli/ulacked lime. It' a little water
be sprinkled upon a stnall piece of well
burned lime, it is ins'.antly absorbed,and
the lime slakes, or quenches, and appear?
quite dry ; but, after a few moments, it
cracks, swells, and crumbles into a powder
of hydrate, popularly known as slacked
limn , sometimes involving sufficient, heat
to inflame gunpowder, or to char wood
Burned or quicklime is immediately solu
ble in water; unbt r led lime is not so to
auy appreciable extent. When pure, it
is soluble in 035 paitsof water at 32° F ;
but requires at 60°, 778 pans ; at 130°,
072 paits; at 212°. 1,270 parts for its
solution. A pint of water at 32°, desolvt s
13) grains; at 1)0°, 11? grains; and at
212°, 6 7 10 grains, llence the propriety
ofjcmploying cold water for the slaking ol
lime. i h'S degree of solubility is quite
sufficient, immediately after liming t l e
l.ui l, to provide the plants, which, be
sides can only bear a very dilute solution
; iii mineral substances without injury,
with an abundant supply of digestible
inie; that is, of course, supposing that
be requisite quantity of water is present
A - this solution permeates the soil in al,

If lime be perfectly dry, it bas little or
