WHEATLAND, July /, 1851.
To BRYAN JACKSON, ESQ,


Rec. Sec. Of ". c. Co., fig. Society.
Dear Scr The wheat throughout
this section of the country, is all cut,
and some oft is already in the stack.
The enemies of the wheat-the Hessian
fly, as usual, took much of the early
sown wheat, last fall, but the past spring
being quite wet or lcoky the later sown
has filled well. The frost of June had
injured that sown in low ground, to
some small ebtent, but the other casual
tiles beyond the reach or control of the
farmer, such as smut, scab, and injury
from wet through harvest, have not
been heard of amongst us. So far the
crop appears to be abundant and of good
quality.
AS before said, the fig and frost have
done some injury, but the curse of De-
mocracy-Frce Trade and British inter-
em-has destroyed the prospect of the
farmer. 90 cents per bushel only is Of
fered by the Brandywine miIlers, if de-
livered at the Canal by the 10th of Ju.
", and as but little or none can be got
out by that time, we must expect from
the great quantity raised, still further
fall of 10 or Is cents per bushel, as the
machines will soon be set in motion, the
farmer ofthis section being very anxious
to get their wheat TO market before the
glut comes IN from the West and Cana
da, there being no foreign demand, and
our own market having been not only
destroyed, but the operatives in our own
Factories that have been thrown out of
employ, have become producers of wheat
to great extent, instead of being perm.

BLUE RosE.-The horticulturists of
Paris (says a correspondent of the New
York Express) have succeeded by arti-
ficial crossings in obtaining a natural
rose of blue color, which is the fourth
color obtained by artificial means-that
and the yellow or tea rose, and the stri-
ped rose, being all inventions, land the
result of skiltful scientific gardening
Republic.
We can add to this the green rose of
North Carolina, which, though not the
creature of science, is sufficiently well
known in parts of this State to claim a
rank among the above floral novelties.
This rose is identical with our common
daily, except in color, the variation in
which is supposed to have been produced
by the accidental intermingllng OF the
roots of the rose tree with those of the
common Sumach. The peculiaritics of
the new varieties are perpetuated by
cuttings or otherwise. 1t is quite com
mon in the county of Bladen, and some
few specimens exist IN the town of Fay
etteville. [RALElcn IN. CO. REG.
The PorATo DIsEAsE.-A practical
man and thinker, sends to the Boston
Courier, the following recipe for the
cure of the vegetable disease known as
the potato rot, which may not be too
late for trial at the present season.
What propose, to save this cscnlent
from destruction, is Sulphur Cor Brim-
stone asst is usually called.) After the
ground is prepared and MANFRED in the
usual way, put tablespoonful of sui
phur in each hill. Then plant your po-
tatoes, and cultivate in the usual way
This is all that is necessary to insure
good crop of sound potatoes:
The theory of this is, that the sulphur
gradually undergoes decomposition and
evolves gases which keep the potato free
from this destructive animal-Good
well rotted barn-yard manure ought to
be used for the experiment, but if com
post is used, care should be taken that
neither lime nor ashes are in it, for if
there is, the alkali Of the lime and ash
es will combine with the acid Of the
sulphur, and neutralize them, so as to
be of no effect, either as a manure or
cure for the rot.

QulTE JoKE.-It is stated in some
of the newspapers, that gentleman
living IN Virginia wrote to his brother
in Ohio that he desired to emancipate
one hundred slaves and send them to
Ohio. His brother wrote back that he
could not do that--that the State would
not receive them, and would make con-
siderable ado at such a proposition, but
he could suggest way in which he
could accomplished his intention. He
advised him to take the slaves to Wheel.
ing, ship them for Cincinnati, and talk
of taking them to New Orleans, and the
abolitioniSts would steal them all away
from him, and save him much trouble!
