PLANT PEAs.--June, T for the mid
die and upper portions Of South
Carolina, is the proper month in
which to plant peas. With drillod
corn, our practice has been to chop
in nicely, four or five peas between
the stalks on the drill, and we find
that this quantity of seed gives as
more vine and pod, .han if we plant
cd double the number. Let all those,
who wish to improve their farms,
plant a hill Of peas for every hill Of
corn they have CROWNS; and if they
have the seed to spare, SOW down
theirsentire breadth oficorn landwith.
peas atsthe last flanghing. We do
not advise a farmer toSdo anything

The Streets,
WASHINGTON, July 13, 1858.

IN WASHINGTON, July 13, 1858
Every citizen of Washington reioices in i'm
provements which tend to beautify and in
crease the conveniences ofintercourse between
different sections of our city. No one is moro
pleased than am with the project of grading
and lighting that part of our magnificent
Pennsylvania avenue between the White
House and Georgetown.
But must be permitted to remark that the
system of laying out the roadway and side
walks is old -fashined, and neither convenient
nor elegant. When sidewalks were first in
troduced in Europe, they were exceedingly
narrow, even in wide streets-the idea pre-
vailing that too much space could not be Civ
en- to vehicles. Experience has of late years
changed the ideas of engineers on that point.
and tits now becoming an almost universal
practice with them to give the utmost possible
width to sidewalks consistent with the wants
of carriage traffic. This new system adds
greatly to the beauty of roads and streets and
immensely to the comfort convenience and
safety pedestrians Thus, in narrow London
streets, sidewalks have been everywhere WIDEN
ed, oven to allowing in some instances of only
room for one vehicle to pass, And this be-
cause the comfort of TO- 900 pedestrians is of
more Importance than the passage of 10 vehi-
clos Even in Paris the same rule prevails
Take, for instance, the Boulevards they have
all of late years been repaved from house to
house. They average $50 feet in breadth !;
and how is the road distributed? Into about
three equal parts, with double row of elm
trees on each sidewalk, cut to resemble a
Gothic archway. The lamps being placed at
the edge of the roadway at distance from
the trees, give better light, and both night
and day are more ornamental.
In short, the modern system is founded on
the fact that the many are entitled to more
attention than the few. And that whom even
in crowded cities, there is room for three or
four vehicles to pass each other, there is am
pie room for aHy amount of that kind of
| traffic. r...- ... ,- -..
May beg you TO call attention to the wa ste
OF roadway for which our city is peculiarly
distinguished, and urge the necessity of con-
sidering the comfort and convenience of Pc
destrians more fully, and the beauty of the
new system. Yours, respectfully,
| .fgtt-s. o.. A CITIZEN.
