the carriages Of somo noblemen and ladies
were stopped, aud the noble inmates were
made to walk, amid Kisses and groans and
cries Of go to church," Lord and Lady
Wilton. Lady Granville. and the Duke and
Duchess Of Beaufort, were obliged to leave
their carriages at the demand Of the multi.
tude. Several horses bolted, and three or
four difficult escapes took place. There were

THE Necessity OF DROUGHT, AND IT'S
BEKEfIT.-The State Agricultural Chemist
of Maryland, Mr.. Higgins, publishes paper,
showing the necessity Of droughts to replen.
sh the soil with mineral substances, carried
off to the sen by the rains and also taken up
by the crops, and not returned by manure
These two causes, always in operation, would
in time, render the earth barren waste, in
which no verdure would quicken, and no
solitary plant take root, if there was not n
natural connteraction by drought, which OPP
crates to supply this waste in the following
manner. During dry weather, a continual
evaporation of water takes place from the
surfnces of the earth, which is not supplied
by any from the clouds. The evaporation
from the surface crentes vacuum, so far as
water is concerned, which ia at once filed by
the water rising up from the subso Of the
land; the water from the subsoil is replaced
from the next strata below, and in this man.
ner the circulation of water in the earth is the
reverse to that which takes place in wet
weather. With this water also ascend the
minerals held in solution, the phosphates and
suIphates of lime, carbonate and silicate Of
potash and soda. which are deposited in the
surface soil as the wnter evapora!es, and thus
restores tho losses sustained as above stated
The author Of this theory appears to have
taken considerable pains to verify the fact
by number Of interesting experiments
The subject is worthy the attention Of men
of leisure and OF education, who pursue the
rational system o! blending chemistry with
agricultural science.

high terms Of what il is pleased To call Gov
ernor Johnson's magnanimity in agreeing to
close the canvass at Knoxville, in conse-
qucnce of the illness of his competitor Thai
was rather magnanimous in his Excellency,
but agreeing to do thing and doing II is n

agreed TO close the canvass at Knoxville, but
he attended ali tho appointments, assembled
tho people about him, expressed his regret
that he could not address him, and then went
on and told what he would have said had cir

ia unparalleled in the history Of public men,

OBSERVER.

Or Judge Bronson has written an opinion
agand the New York prohbitory law. lie
assures first, that it takes an un@arrantable
ibert with existing rights TO property, by
denying to the owner thereof, the RICH. to
sell il Secondly, that the Legislature cannot
makes thing a nuisance by declaring it TO be
such. Third, that although excessive drink.
ing isan evil, it does not follow that the
moderate use of liquor is sin against either
God Dr. man. From the time of Noah down,
it has been praetised, and neither the Saviour,
nor Paul forbade it. Fourth, it reverses rules
of evidence, iracts grievous penalties, is di.
rectet against particular class, is retroactive,
&c, &C., and fifth, even though the law is
valid it does not apply to imported liquors.
He closes oy hoping that no man will dis
trust the judiciary, but wait patiently the &C
