    THE JOURNAL
Thursday Morning Aug. 10.
Our Patrons.
We take great pleasure in acknowledg
ing ourself handsomely treated by souse
fifty of our patrons, who, during Court
week, extended to us timely said and
comfort," in the form of new subscribers,
advance payment of subscription, and set
tlement of old accounts. We have now,
either personally or by letter, transacted
business with about one hundred and forty
of our subscribers, or one fifth of the whole
number on our list. If the remaining four
fifths are men of the same stamp, though
we may not be entitled to boast of the ex
tent of our patronage, we can and will
boast of the honorable character, the pe
cuniary integrity, and generosity of our
patrons. Among the above number of one
hundred and forty men with whom we have
had settlements, we recognized but one
scoundrel. Of him we may have occasion
to speak hereafter. At present we are in
too happy a mood to write any thing but
our thanks to those who have so kindly re
membered us, hoping that hundreds of oth
ers, will, in the course of the autumn, af
ford us the opportunitwf a similar pleas
ure.
Broad Top Railroad.
We notice with pleasure the brightening
prospects of this important improvement.—
Already, as may be seen by reference to
the card of the Conunissioners, in another
column, has the amount of stock necessary
to secure the Charter, been subscribed at
home; in a few weeks the first instalment,
of five dollars a share, will be paid in, the
Company fully organized, and its labors,
on the ground, fairly commenced. In ad
dition to the above, wo have the assurance
of a gentleman, whose judgement may be
relied on, that the success of the enterprise
is placed beyond a peradventure, by its
growing popularity abroad, as evinced by
the purchase, in large tracts, of the wild
lands on and near the proposed route. In
short, every thing indicates the earl, com
mencement, and speedy completion of this
road, not only from Huntingdon to the
Broad Top coal fields, but on to Bedford,
with branohes to other important points.—
That it will yield a handsome profit to the
stockholders, and greatly increase the val
ue of property in the' tract of country
through which it passes, can hardly be
doubted by any ono acquainted with the
resources and wants of that region.
TILE JCNIATA FIRE ENGINE COEIPA—
NY.—Captain Garretlson and his fine Com
pany of "fire annihilators," were out with .
the Engine, on Saturday last, iu full uni
form, and made a very handsome and cred
itable appearance. That the " Juniata
boys" are being appreciated as.their pub
lic spirit and gentlemanly deportment de 7
serve, was most substantially and agreea
bly demonstrated on this occasion, by the
refreshments, boquets, wreaths and other
pleasant tokens of approbation, presented
to them during their procession. We re
joice to see the young men merit and re
ceive these encouraging attentions. ay
they always be worthy, and always find
their worth rewarded.
Tr The Farm Journal for August is on
our table. Besides the usual variety-of
valuable information for the farmer and
gardener, this number contains a full re
port of the late National Agricultural Con
vention, in which twenty-three States were
represented by one hundred and fifty dele
gates; and also a complete Programe of the
approaching Exhibition of the Pennsylva
nia State Agricultural Society, to be held
in Lancaster, on the 20th, 21st, and 22d
days of October. The Regulations of the
Fair, List of Premiums, &c., are all given,
and every information necessary for those
wishing to take or send articles for exhibi
tion, is minutely laid before the readers of
the "Journal" in this No. which should be
obtained by every fairer that is not al
ready familiar with the character and pro
gress of this Society.

"The Public Serving" a spirited little pa
per published at Newburg, Pd., by H. S.
Fisher, at 50 eta. per aunu►n in advance.
ilk The September number of Godey
and Graham have been received. They
are again double Nos. and perfect gems in
their way.
17" Mr. Matthias, State Senator from
l'hila., died on Saturday morning. The
deceased has, at various times, represented
the City in the State Legislature; he was
for some time connected with the press, and
is the author of several useful books.
Sfirtrutturat.
Fixed Facts in Agriculture
The following may be assumed as fixed
facts in Arieulture:
1. All lands on which clover or other
grass is grown, must either have lime in
them naturally, or that material must be
artificially supplied: It matters not wheth
er it be supplied in the form of stone lime,
oyster shell lime, or marl.
2. All permanent improvement of lands
!must look to lime as its basis.
3. Lands which have been long in cul
ture will be bonefitted by applications of
phosphate of lime, and it is unimportant
whether the deficiency be supplied in the
form of bone dust, guano, native phos
phate of lime, compost of sh, ashes, or in
that of oyster -shell lime, or marl, if the
land needs lulling also.
4. No lands can be preserved in a high
:state of fertility, unless clover and the
grasses aro cultivated in tho course of ro
tation.
I 5. Mould is indispensible in every soil;
and a healthy supply can alone be preser
ved through the cultivation of clover and
the grasses, the turning in of green crops,
or by the application of composts, rich in
the elements of mould.
6. All highly concentrated animal ma
nures are increased in value, and their bene
fits prolonged, by admixture with plaster,
salt or pulverized charcoal.
7. Deep plowing greatly improves the
productive powers of every variety of soil,
that is not wet.
8. Sub soiling sound land, that is,
land that is not wet, is eminently condu
cive to increased production.
9. All wet lauds should be well drain-
10. All Grain crops should be harvest
ed from 7 to 10 days before the grain is
thoroughly ripe.
11. Clover, as well as the Grasses, in
tended for hay, should be mowed when in
full bloom; and after drying partially be
put up iu small cocks and thus cured.
12: Sandy Ittrids can be most effectually
improved by clay: When such lands re
quire liming., or marling, the lime or marl
is most beneficially applied when made in
to compost with clay. In slaking lime,
salt brine is better than water.
13. The chopping or grinding of grain,
to be fed to stock, operates as a saving of
at least 25 per cent.
14. Draining wet lands and marshes,
add to their value, by making them pro
duce more and better crops; and producing
them earlier—as well as improving the
health of the vicinity around.
15, To manure or lime wet land, is to
throw immure, lime and labor away.
16. Shallow plowing operates to im
poverish the soil, while it decreases pro
duction.
17. By stabling and shedding stock
thro' the winter, a saving of WI of the
food may be effected; That is, }tit less
food will answer, than when exposed to the
inclemency of the weather.
18. A bushel of plaster per acre, sown
broadcast over clover, will add 100 per
cent to its produce.
19. Peri'odical applications of ashes tend
to keep up the integrity of soils by supply
ing most, if not all, of the inorganic sub
stances.
'2O. Thorough preparation of land is
absolutely necessary to the successful and
luxuriant growth of crops.
'2l. Abundant crops cannot be grown
for a succession of years, unless care is ta
ken to provide, and apply, an equivalent for
the substances carried off the land in the
products grown thereon.
22. To preserve meadows in their pro
ductiveness, it is necessary to harrow them
well every second autuin, apply top dress
ings 6L roll then,.
'23. All stiff clay soils are benefited by
fall or winter plowings; but Should never
be plowed while they are wet. If at such
plowings, the furrow be materially deepen
ed, lime, marl or ashes should be, applied.
Skill adds more to the profit of
farming than hard work. In the article
of butter, for instance, the same outlay is
required, or nearly the same, to make a
hundred pounds of poor butter,
as would
be required to make a hundred pounds of
that which is good. But, when the two
articles are marketed, there may be five
or six dollars of clear extra profit in the
pocket of the skillful dairyman. The im
portance of scientific farming is realized by
those who have found such benefits as is
noted above, in nearly every department
of their labor.
AGE OF SIIEEP.—The age of sheep may
be known by the front teeth. They aro
eight in number, and appear the first year,
all of a size. In the second year the two
middle ones fall out, and their place is
supplied by two large ones. In the third
year a small tooth on each side. In the
fourth year the large teeth are six iu num
ber. In the fifth year the whole front
tooth are large. In the sixth year the
whole begin to get worn.
[1 ARDENT IN TILE commencement,
cureless towards the conclusion. This is
a fault common to many in the conduct of
their albiirs, and one which always ought
to be guarded against; for, without perse
verance and steadiness, few projects can
be brought to perfection and without these
essential qualifications, no difficulties are
over surmounted, no consuunnasion is over
attained; and how many once flourishing
concerns do we see crumble away? how
many once thriving establishments dilapi-•
dated, through this defect in the conduc
tors!
