REsusCITATION or WORN OUT LAND
-Four years ago two gentlemen of this CT.
~ bought each ten acre lot, adjoining
each other, on the road leading through
the Canton property 70 Patapsco neck. A,
the time Of The purchase, these lots were
the very pictures Of poverty personlfed,
slightly covered with sedge grass Of stun.
ted growth. Some years previous we had
seen them in corn, with stalks not higher
Than four or Ave feet, about the thickness.
ofa mans thumb. Asio ears of corn, there
were none-of nubbins even, the product
was scarcely worth gathering. The first
spring after these lots came into the pos.
session oftheir present owners, they each
ploughed his respective lot as deep as
strong double horse teams and good
ploughs could plough il, then put on 80
double horse cart loads TO the acre, of com.
post formed of street dirt and stable ma.
nure, then cross-ploughed the manure in
some four inches deep, spread hundred
bushels Of soap boilers ashes to the
acre, broadcast; narrowed and rolled their
ground, listed it 4 feet by 2, and planted
il in corn, putting hand full of plaster and
ashes on each hill. The product Of good
long cared sound corn, was SO bushels to
the acre Of shelled corn. The cultivation
Of the corn, after the first ploughing, was
with the cullivator and hoe, the object Of
the proprietors being to maintain a flat sur
face, with the view Of seeding the lots
down in grass. In August, after the corn
had been laid by, the harrow was passed
through the rows, and peck Of timothy
seed and 8 lbs. clover seed, sown upon
each acre, which was narrowed in with a
light harrow. The grass seed took well,
and has produced from two and half to
three tons Of excellent hay to the acre last
year and the year before. We saw these
lots a few weeks since, and from their lux
uriant appearance, we should Judge, that
their yield, Of the present, viii be equal to
that Of the two preceding years. Inlook-
ing al them il appeared a marvel to us,
where they would find space to cure the
hay after they should cut the grass, SO
heavy and luxuriant was the stand of plants
we saw growing on it. TO enable the I'M
initiated to understand what is meant by
soap boilers ashes, we will remark that
they are spent ashes, and generally con-
tain about two-fifths Of lime in their COM
position; so that he who uses them, both
ashes and lines his land at one and the
same time.
A great horror is generally entertained
at buying WORKOUT lands--and, indeed,
where means and plenty Of money are not
at hand 10 improve them, this horror is We
ry Justly entertained; for no melioration
can be produced until you restore to the
soil the elements of fertility of which il

lars per year of a tax to support bank officers
and clerks.
The people are complaining, year after year,
al their state expenses, for officers 10 perform the
duties incident TO a state government; while, in
fact, they get but merely living salaries, and pay
at the same time enough TO bank officers to sup
port four state governments like that of Ohio,
and not word is said And why? Because
ii is not regularly levied and collected by the
proper officers. iii was, the people would re-
bel, and banking would be dispensed with by
unanimous consent, except those who live by it,
1t is true il is an unseen taxi but it is paid, and II
must come from some where, and il cannot come
from the banks originally, because if the banks
did no business with the people, they would de-
rive no profit, and as they pay their expenses
out of their profits, it must come from those who
deal with them and use their notes as money.
Well, again: 'Why is not bank capital listed
for taxation as other propertyF The reason IS
not because it has never been tried to be done
by our Legislature; for during the discussion of
this iniquitous tax law last winter, the democrats
tried to get this wholesome provision engrafted
into the law; but whigery, true to its instinct in
favoring incorporated capital, voted in solid CO.
umn against it, as will be seen by the journal OF
the House of Representatives:
''Mr Fson (democrat) moved to amend said
bill by adding the following, by way of rider, to
| wit:
"'Sec -. That the assessors shall also take
and procure statement of the amount of CAPT
tai invested in the business of banking in their
respective townships, which shall be subject to
the same taxation as capital invested in mercan.

This is proof from the record, and the people
can see who it is that wishes TO exempt those

es This subject is one that the people shoul(

among the business people of the State.

Clanaesfine Marriage.

Romantic Denouemcnt.- learn from the
Philadelphia Chronicle, that considerable excite
mant was produced about five O'Clock on We'd
nesday morning, on Walnut st. wharf, from an
attempt Of one young man to shoot another, who
was in company with a young lady:
1t appears that the young man who was shot at
was Mr.. l.. Theodore Salaignac, of that city,and
the lady was Miss Louisa l. Grant, daughter OF
Mr. Grant, of the firm Of Grant &, Stone, Mer-
chants, South Wharves. The other young man
was her brother. Mr.. Salagnac had paid his at
tentions TO Miss Grant for some time, and was
accepted by her, but the match was opposed by
the young lady's relatives. On Wednesday NOR.
ming, however, they broke through all objections
by eloping, and were married in Grace Church
by the Rev. w. l.. Suddards. Their intention
then being TO embark for New York in the early
line, but by some means or other the affair was
discovered, and the brother Of the lady stationed
himself on Walnut ST. wharf, and waited for the
arrival of the fugitves. At few minutes pas
five cab drove up and they alighted. No soon
er were they upon the wharf than the broIhe
drew a pistol from his bosom, and taking aim a
Salaignac, fired. Luckily, however, by-stand
er, perceivng his intention, knocked his arm u
so high that the shot passed over the head of the
intended victim. This created considerable sti
among the persons who happened to be there
and inquiry was Immediately made as to who Fl
red the shot. The young man did not deny tht
act, but boldly avoRed it, and demanded his sis
ter from Saagnac. This was refused and tn,
brother declared that she should not leave th
city; thereupon the young lady stepped up anc
told him that she was her own mistress, and wa
lawfully married, at the same time showing he
certificate of marriage, and assuring him tina
she would go where she pleased. Finding him
self n-pussed, the brother then went home
and the newly married couple then departed 70
