Lord Wharncfe can fully appreciate the demonstra

important event of their national history But the
object of that celebration is essentially American and one
in communication of which it appears him that he

therefore hopes the Committee will consider it as no evil

which they have honored him.

He had seen Mr. Webster during day and had con-

That namely OF dyng 10 the support of the candidate reg

he was ready to give the wing ticket his cordial support

AGRICULT l. r A l..
OF THE STATE AGRICULTURAL
CHEMIST. OF MARYLAND.

All vegetable substances depend for their
production upon certain substances either
fnrnished,o them from the air or from The soil
upon iich theY grow. Upon al examination
of any or all of The products Of The earth, there
are InvaI,ably found lw o kinds Of bndips suf-
fciently distinct in their genera! and special
properties TO be arranged under two separate
and distinct classes, ibe one of these is call
ed Organic, the other Inorganic; the former
having its form easily and rapidly changed
by heat, or by the slow process of decom-
position, the latter being more fixed and not
susceptible Of change by causes which entire
ly destroy The combinations OF the former.
LIE. piece oi wood or s,aw, grains of wheat,
or any vegetable substance be exposed to a
red heat, with free access OF air, and we find,
after a certain time, that Their forms are
changed, their bnIk very much diminished,
and large portion of their weigh. dissipal-
ed, there being left behind only a small
quantity of what are commonly called ashes
These are the inorganic, or mineral, whilst
that part which has disappeared are The or
ganic constituents of vegetable structure.
The par. which has disappeared in the
air is that portion of plants which was al
most entirely obtained from it during their
growth, the part remaining and called the
ashes, the inorganic or mineral part, is lhs,
portion furnished entirely by the soll, be-
cause it does not and canno, exist in the air.
The part which is dIssipa,ed by heat
called organic or vegetable matter, forms
by far the larges, portion of the weight and
bulk Of oil vegetable and animal structures.

Wheat yielded upon organic analyses, by
Boussingault, an average result as follows


Thus We have seen by the analyses OF Pro-
fessor Way, that the ash Of wheat con-
tains two per cent. of lime, and that the
mineral or incombus'ible par, Of wheat bears
but small proportion (2.O4) to The vege
table or organic matter. OIher analyses
gave less than two per cent. Of mineral. So
that bushel of wheat, weighing 60 lbs,
would contain abou, one pound Of ash or
mineral. Lime being but two per cent. Of
this, an acre of wheat producing twenty
bushels would par. with bu, 40 of pound
of lime in each crop, and with little labor
might be made inexhaus,ble Of this mine
raj. II it were as easy to supply the other
ingredients necessary, our lands would soon
be equal to the nrairies Of the West or Of
the flats Of the Zuyder Zee.
A soil containing one per cent. Of lime
and due admixture Of alumina and mag
nesian earth, would have a sufficient calca-
reous basis. This would contain 10000 lbs.
to lbe acre at depth Of plougtug of five
inches. Is this as deep as the average
ploughing Of our lands? think i, deeper.
For do not hesitate in saying tina, in all our
farming economy, we are most deficient in
our pIoughing, and fear we shall not i'm

much larger in breaking up our lands for

small proportion Of lime, and il is not dIffI-
cult ,p ascertain how much lime or mari
would supply the amour. necessary Tor ler-
tility. Thus, the mari al Wade's bay con-
tains As per cent. of carbonate or 25 oi quick
lime, estimating a cart load TO be 81 bushels
and the mari to be 50 lbs. to the busheI
when dry, there would be in each load go
lbs. Of carbonate, equal TO 375 bushels OF
csus,ic lime, according to the relative pro-
portions Of lime and carbon!c acid contain
ed in the msrl SO that Is loads would give
to each acre lO,135 lbs. of carbonate, more
plous he'd, or 5,625 lbs. Of caustic lime, equal
To more than one per cent of carbonate or
half per cent. of quick lime in the soil. But
few soils conlain more.

Other analyses Of prairie soils and those
from the rich lands Of the West, give SINH
lar results. In Ibis specimen, taken from
lands producing twenty barrels Of corn and
from forty to fifty bushels Of wheat, there
is not more lime than can be applied with
but li,,le labor and cost 10 ours, being but
| per cent and 44-lO0O, and except in the
organic matter S per cent, and 1866 1000,

own lands. This organic matleris is decom-
posed vegetable fiber. containing nitrogen,
oxygen and phosph.tes, and evolving am
monia a, high iempersture. An acre Of
land is said to contain one hundred tons Of
earth per inch in depth. So that five hun
dred tons Of earth are turned over to each
acre where the land is plouehed five inches
deep; snd at tha, depth Of ploughing there
is tina, amount $500 sons per acrel to be
acted on and rendered fl for the production
Of such plants are desired 10 be culliva-
ted. Now, if soil contains two per cent. Of
lime. an acre al five inches deep would con-
tain ten tons, or 10000 lbs. But this a.
mount is far from necessary, as we have

tion in depth which is subjected to 'illage
for the purpose of CRAFTY ing the wants ot

of the western States, aud particularly those
denominated prairie lands, are remarkable
for their productiveness. Those also differ
in character, some containing more lime and
calcareous matter. The following is The
