COMMON SCHOOLS. Mr. Wiley, General Superin-
tendent of Common Schools for the State, has writ
ten and published another letter the subject of
Common Schools addressed to his Excellency, Gov.
Reid in which he alludes to the main obstacles that
have hitherto operated against the full success of
system. The first and most prominent mentioned
by Mr.. Wiley, is the that has obtained in the
minds of citizens, that the Common School fund
was designed as State charity, for the benefit Of
the "common people" He very truthfully argues
that the prevalence of this opinion has done to
retard the progress of popular education u the State
than any other one thing II, Mr. Wiley, suggests
those of citizens, who occupy in their neighbor
hoods, conspicuous positions in point of wealth or
intelligence would take hold Of the matter and show
that they felt interest in the Schools in their vi
cinity, much good would be accomplished, indeed
the system would soon become all that its most ar
dent advocates claimed for it. We think it
would be good plan to have these letters published
in pamphlet form for general distribution.

PLouGITSG AND MASrRING. At the recent Agri-
cultural Fair, at Hampstead Long Island, Professor
Mapes said:
"High farming is not ornamental farming; it is
deep ploughng and increased manuring. This is
what pays the greatest profit. Who ever heard of
a crop suffering from drought in field well drained
and sub-soiled say two feet deep? The atmosphere
gives out its moisture in subsoiled land and keeps
the crops growing. Look at such land and see the
results, compared with shallow ploughing. Many
men have better farm under the one they plough
than that on the surface Oats never lodge on land
where they get soluble sick to make strong
straw. They cannot get it in shallow ploughed land
that has been long in use. Two dollars will
give him plenty of soluble silex. No matter what
the subsoi is it will be benefited if it is dry by SUBJ
solng. Hill tops are benefited by sub-soing and
draining, for it lets in the air. 1t makes crops
ler and thus they escape the frost. The most grav-
ely land is benefited. A subsoiled meadow never
"runs out" There is no fear of deep ploughing
gravclly lands; manures do not reach downward !;
that notion is a fallacy. To prove it, dig in your
barnyard, and you will find it has not made the
hard subsoil rich. Root crops are not appropriated
as they should be. Cattle may be fattcned roots
cheaper than you feed them hay in the winter
One bushe of carrots, fed with oats worth more
than oats to horses. You raise thousand BUSH
els of carrots to the acre, worth fifty cents bushel
for feed. Carrots are equal for COWS in winter to
clover in May"

as being one Of the most t,. anti-yan Brrrn poll
ticians in the State :

- The following Resolutions were adopted BY
the late Convention in this City composed of Sons
of Temperance and prohibitionists
g Resolred, That this Convention views with the
deepest ard most anxious concern, the widespread
influence of intemperance over the citizens of this
State in spite of the vigorous efforts to suppress it
and the general disgust with which it is regarded by
the public mind. -
Z Resolred, That the demands of an enlightened
age, and the moral social and economical wants of
people, call loudly for more effective measures to
secure its suppression and ultimate humiliation.
Resotced That the sale of intoxicating liquors as
a beverage in this State under the sanction of law
both by wholesale and RETAIL is the chief obstacle to
the success of the reformatory measures hitherto
brought into requistion to suppress intemperance.
Resolred That it is the duty of the Legislature of
this State at its next session. as it clear
ly ascertained that majority Of the people desire
it. to pass law prohibiting entirely the buying and
selling within the limits of this State of all noxicat
ling liquors for other than medicinal or mechanical
purposes and that this Convention most urgently
calls upon the citizens of the State everywhere to
memorabilia the next General Assembly to pass such
law.
Resolred, That while the friends of Temperance
will urge upon the Legislature the passage of such
law, and boldly proclaim it to be their purpose to
agtate it until the people of this State shall in the
exercise of their sovereignty demand it; they are
Legislators acting under the instructions of their
constituencies such notifications of the present IL
cense law or the adoption of such measures for
the suppression of Intemperance, as they may deem
advisable until the people of the State clearly and
emphaticaly require a prohibitory law.
Resolred, That this Convention most distinctly
disclaims for the friends ofTemperance in this State
any design to mix up this great question with party
politics, to affiliate with either of the political
parties of the country unless the alternative be forced
upon us; does this Convention deem it desirable
best for ultimate and permanency that the
measure proposed be carried by either political
| party.
Resolrcd, That while this Convention most ardent
y calls upon every citizen of the State, both Whig
and Democrat friendly to the Temperance cause, tc
exert his influence to bring out for the next Iegisla
turc candidates of high moral WORTH sober habits
and intelligence-a good men and true; yet it Who'll
| ly disclaims all intention of committing any Tenn
| perance man to the support of any particular can
didate, in opposition to his own convictions of pro
priety and duty"
