TIE NECESSITY OF DRoUGHT, AND ITS
BENEFITs.-The State Agricultural Chemist
of Maryland, Mr.. Higgins, publishes u paper
showing the necessity of drOughts to rcplen-
sh tie soil with mineral substances, carried
off to the sea By rains, and also taken by the
crops, and not returned by manure. These
two causes also in operation, would, in time,
render the earth Il barren waste, in which no
verdure would quicken, and no solitary plant
take root, if there was not natural counter
action by drought, which operates to supply
this waste in the following manner. During
dry weather II continual evaporation Of water
takes place from the surface of the earth,
which is not supplied by any from the clouds.
The evaporation from the surface creates IL
vacuum, so far rs water is concerned, which
is at once filled by the water rising up from
the sub soil Of the earth; the water from the
subsuiI is replaced by the next strata below;
and in this manner the circulation Of the wa
ter is directly opposite that which takes place
in wet weather. With this water also ascend
the minerals held in solution the phosphates
OF lime, carbonate and sicate Of potash and
soda, which are deposited in the surface of
the soil ~ the water evaporatcs and thus re-
store the losses sustained rs above stated
The author of this theory appears to have
taken considerable" pains TO verify the fact 10y
a number of interesting experiments. The
subject is worthy the attention Of men ui
leisure and of education; who pursue the ra
tiona system Of blending chemistry with
agricultural science.

"a Since the rise OF the new American
party many of the members Of the opposition
have steadily complained that the assumption
of the name american" as n party designa-
ton was arrogant and unjust, as we are all
Americans and patriots, no matter what party
we belonged to. The complaint, however
comes with an i'll grace f,om party which
has assumed to be solely and exclusively Dem
ocratic, when the whole body of our people
are Democrats, heart and soul. There is no
more arrogance in the one party styling itself
American than in the other assuming the
name Democratic.

How LoNG WILL IT LAsTi-The Nashville
Gazette asks the question, A" How long will
the American party last 7" and answers, cas-
long as there is patriotism in our land; slong
as an American heart beats for its country;
as long as our people rally around home, prin-
cple, republicanism; as long rs the stars and
stripes can catch the eye and thrill the soul;
as long as the memory of the great, the hero
ic and the good of our fathers is cherished as
long as there is an enemy TO our institutions
in the land; rs long as Romanism, leaving re.
ligion and entering politics, attempts to join
Church and State and poison both as long as
politicians insult common sense, the rights,
the sentiments of the people; as long as office
seekers like hawks and vampires, hover about
to plumber the public treasure and pervert
duty and service in speculation; as long as
the words of Washington have n resting place
in our minds--so long will the American par
ty last" When the.American party ceases TO
exist, no appeal to the patriotism OF the coun-
try will be necessary. The foes of the Union
will have triumphed.

The GANBLKR's PLAS.-The New Orleans
Delta says the skill with which NAPOLEON
plays his cards is proof that he is a eonsum-
mate gambler, while the steadness with
which the Car adheres to the ideas of Peter,
Catherine and Nicholas establishes his right
to the splendid throne which he fills. The
influence of Russia is felt throughout Europe
from the centIe of Germany to Spain-and
Carlist instructions and other sudden move
ments are pregnant commentaries on the mag
ical power of Russian gold. The influence of
France is equally potent, for Sardinia bows
before it, Austria trembles and Rome submits.
As to England, she acts like dutiful school
boy, and does as her imperial master com
manGs. She learns her lesson in the Tuiller-
les and repeats it by rote in the House Of
Commons. Napoleon uses the ferule in her
case at present, but the time may come when
he will grasp a more danger Gus instrument.
The New York Times has received intelli-
gence from reliable quarter POSSIBLY from
the American Minister AZ Pars,) which en-
larges the programme of the war immensely,
and gives Us a tolerable idea of the great
gamblers plans. The letter which it publish
ed in it's latest issue received here is the most
remarkable and important document lately
given to the world on the subject of the in
ternationa struggle. We have always held
that Napoleon would ultimately take the
field himself and the writer confirms us in
this opinion. lie must bea soldier as well as
