was an array Of cornstalks, topped down to the
ear The plants were set out, one in hill, about
four feet apart, with solitary ear to stalk, small
and ill.favored Some OF the corn was OF the
gourd species-having its grain possibly in the
heavens above or the earth beneath, but not on
the stalk When the stalks had been removed
from the earth, they were piled out, some fifty to-
gether-not stacked-and exposed, ears and all, to
the weather. And there was no scarcity of hands

We have heard deal at the North, from patent
phianthropists OF the horrors of slavery; and the
editor of the Tribune can devote a column, now
and then, to lamentations on the sad fate of his
colored friends south of Mason and Dixons line
AS far as can see, the horrors are endured by the
master For my own part, would not give the
value OF their keep for such negroes. They seemed
too indolent to be employed scare-crows; and
except to beggar their owners, are of little earthly
use. Everybody has heard of the farmer in New
Jersey, who gave away one-half his land to get
a man to take the rest, and so bettered his Goa
dition. If the owners of the negroes that | saw
could do this, it would end in their pecuniary
benefit.
Yet, despite the deplorable condition of farming
this quarter, the soil is as capable, under Judi
cious management, the average run of soil in
the North. 1t is generally sandy loan, friable,
easily ploughed, and containing the proper basis of
a very productive mould. Animal manures alone,
with judicious application of lime-both to be
had in sbundance-aided by proper rotation of
crops, would soon renovate It. Some kind of
paralysis seems to have seized upon all the land
owners, whose principal efforts are directed to
clothing and feeding their negroes, and securing
vendlsh and cold bald.face" Whether this be
from inherent incidence, from the blight Of
