VALUE OF INORGANIC MANUREs.-Mr. Hors-
ford, correspondent Of the Albany Cultivator
says -
SIN the spring preceding my arrival at Gies-
sen, Prot. Liebig planted some grape vines under
the windows of the laboratory. lie fed them, if
may use the expression, upon the ashes of the
grape vine, or upon the proper inorganic food of
the grape, as shown by analysis of its ashes.
The growth has been enormous, and several of
the vines have bore large clusters of grapes in
the course of the season. Indeed, | know not
but all, as my attention was particularly drawn
to them only since the fruit has been gathered
The soil, otherwise, is little better than pave
ment-a kind of fine gravel, in which scarcely
any thing takes root. | was shown pots of
wheat, in different stages of their growth, that
had been fed varously-some upon the nor-
ganic matters they needed-others had merely
shared the tribute of the general soil. The re-
suit in numbers don't yet know, but in appear
ance no one could be at loss as to what might
be expected"

Why Don 7 WE CHOW Aye, why? Answer,

perpetualists
Take up your maps. Put your finger on Chi

with exports OF thousand dollars in SO. and
over one million and a half in '45-pass on TO
Milwaukee, Racine, and mark the same marvel
ous increase in one and in all, and tell us if
there be any other cause but slavery.
Why, Louisville naturally has every advant-
age. Not a city or town named equals her in
this respect! Not city or town in the far
West that has so many natural advantages !!
Yet go to your Banks-go TO officers who dis
count bills or drafts, and ask them how much
weekly-nay, how much daily, is paid TO Gin
cinna, mechanics for work done there, which
mght as well be done here And wherefore
this The eating cancer, evident to every eye
that will look at it and see it, is slavery, and yet
we stand with hands folded, and lips closed, as
if there were not work to do, and words To utter,
in removing the sole cause of our difficulty
Suppose for a moment that the work done for
Louisville men, and by Louisville capital, abroad,
were done at home, what a spur would be gwen
to our industry, what All increase brought to our
city We cannot get hold of data, sufficient to
make an exact calculation. But we believe, il
this one result were effected, that population
of ten thousand producers would be added at

Hints for April.

Cows and ewes, which are near the period Of
parturition, require attention. For three or four
weeks before they bring forth, their food should
be of such nature as will impart strength to
them and their offspring, and at the same time
promote the secretion of milk. Brewers grains,
where they can be obtained, are among the
cheapest and best articles that can be used
They may be fed to cows at the rate of peck
to each COW, per day, before calvng, and half
bushcl per day afterwards. Sheep may be fed
from one quart to three quarts per day. Where
the grains cannot be had little corn or oats
for sheep-say pint of oats, or from gill to a
half pint of corn TO each, per day, and for cows
corn meal, or meal from corn and oats or corn
and cob ground together, at the rate OF from two
to four quarts each per day, will be Beneficial
A few carrots-say peck to a COW. and quart
to a sheep, per day-will greatly favor the Sc
erection of milk, and may be given with advan-
tage in addition to the meal or corn The best
OF hay should be provided Clover, cut before
il was too ripe, and so nicely made that none OF
its heads or leaves have been lost, and is Tree
from mustiness and dust, is not inferior to any
other hay, excepting for working horses and
oxen The animals should have dry and com
Portable shelter, and should not be exposed to
storms.
April is the best month in the year for secu.
ring wool ana tlnOer. w oou sIloulu therefore
be cut split, and piled, that it may have the ben
eft of the drying winds which usually prevail
during this month.
lIotbeds, il not already made, should be form
ed at once Directions f,r making will be found,
in our last volume, page o5-also in vol. tx, Gold
series,( page 55.
Manures may be composted in this month
and will be sufficiently decomposed for use by
the time they are wanted for spring crops.
Oats should be sown in the first part of this
month. 1t is always advisable to sow them as
early as practicable, or as soon as the ground is
in suitable state. The best varieties of the
Irish and Scotch oats are very heavy, and from
some trials made here with them. appear to ex-
coed in yield and value the common oats of this
country. The Hope-Town oat is one of the
hest kinds. 1t is early, hardy. and productive
An advertisement of seed of this variety will be
found in this number.

From the Railroad Journal of Nov. 20.l
RAILROAD FARES.

COMPARATIVE RATES IS THE UNITED STATES.
The comparative rates of fare on railroads is
subject of some interest; we have therefore
prepared the following tabular statement Of the
principal railroads in the United States, giving
their length, through fares, and rates per mile,
from which it will be seen that the New York
and Erie railroad charges the lowest rate. viz ::
10 cents per me--the Harlem next, and then
the Long Island railroad. The New England
roads all range below three cents, except the
New Haven, Hartford and Springfield, which is
o,,e-tenth over. And the next lowest, after the
New England roads, is the Weldon and Will
mington, n. c., which is a fraction less than p
cents-quie too low for a country so thnIy
opulated-thoueh high enough for many of the
more northern lines.
From this statement it will be seen that the
railroads in the StSte of New York, diverging
from the city Of New York. charge lower rates
than any other roads in the country. and we
presume the managers of those roads have been
influenced by the belief that where there is
Dense and to a certain extent confined popula-
ton, the true plan is to pat the rates of fare low,
and thus induce the masses to use the road
This, we are fully convinced, is the true policy
and we believe it will ultimately prevail.

A Grave at Greenwood.

At Greenwood, where, through branches greer
The oceans billowy breast is seen.
When dark the shades Of evening grew,
And all around the green hill blew
Soft winds OF autuInn's tranquil hours,
Faint with the breath OF dying flowers,
An infants little grave was made,
In which with bitt'rest burning tears,
And broken hearted signs, was laid
The blossom OF our latter years.
Sweet place and still it is, and meet
For the last rest OF one so sweet
Bower'd round with trees whose ev'ry leaf
Is eloquent with tender grief;
And giaced with flowers dvnely fair,
Which gentle hands have planted there,
And nurlured with Il sad delight,
Not less to hallow than adorn
sweet flowers that bent in prayer all night,
Raise fearful eyes to heaven at morn
Oh, loved and lost there calmly sleep,
And never wake again TO weep I;
Safe in the cold earth's close embrace
Rest thou alone a little space,
And those thou loved'st most shall come.
And Join thee in thy peaceful home
Thy peaceful home, where ev'ry tear
And ev'ry care is all forgot
Where envy, hatred, STRIFE, and fear,
And sin, and sorrow enter not.
Though sweet thy undisurbed Sleep
A selfish sorrow bids us weep;
Still bleeds-though blessed now thou art
Thy mothers and thy fathers heart.
But though We think OF thee AS dead,
And mourning IN thy earthly bed
W. know, thanks to brnignanl Heaven
When death destroyed thy mortal charms,
That cherub wings to thee were given,
To bear thee to thy Saylour's arms.
