Salt and Gnano.

The following article, from the Mark Lane
Express, contains some facts which should
b, understood. Large quantities OF .nlt
similar 70 that named below. may bc pur-
chas,I from tanners, rcpaeker. Of pork in
the city of New York anu elsewhere.
Some experiments lately reported upon
the action OF common salt when mixed with
euauoare instructive, as well as suggestive
OF further examinations. II is well known
that euauo when used as a top-drcssing, is
bo.t applied in rainy weather, aud that is
ammonia q. rapidly drssipatrl by exposure
10 the sun and winds. Again, in top-drcss-
in-crrral. with either cubic petrc OrGuano,
it has been found advantageous 20 mix the
suano with a certain proportion Of common
salt, the salt being found u preserve that
hardness of the straw, which guano has 4
considerable tendency TO weaken.
To ascertain the extent to which the eE-
posurc Of guano in a dry atmosphere dimin-
ishcs the amount Of iis ammonia, and the
effect produced in fuHg that ammonia by
an addition to il Of half 10. weight Of COM
mon .alt, was the Object Of NJ. Barral, the
cditor Of the Journal d'Agriculture Prac-

that the purr guano had lost ll.G per cent
Of its nitrogen, while that mixed with salt
had lost only iper cent.
These experiments furnished uswith more
than one valuable suggestion; they not on
ly show the Importance Of using common
salt in conjunction with ammoniaclc man
urcs, but they clearly prove the importance
orrrotcc,ius these from the action Of the at
mosphcrc. II should never be forgotten, in
fact, by any cr us, that when we 0non very
strongly any manure, there copious cmana-
tions are going on, dctcrioratins the value
Of the fertilizer; a los that. either by the
use Of some chemical fSrr g! qr naturc'sown

The Grave of Margaret Davidson.
GREENRiDdE CEMETERY, SARATOGA, NY.
1t was n summer day. Weary aud sad,
| stood beside the grave of one whose soul
0fmelody, and song, had pass'd from earth
To claim its heritage of bliss above.
Ere Time had dim'd the beauty Of her brow,
Or quenchcd the light of gladness in her eye,
She turned from earths allurcmeats and with
Joy
Gave her young heart to Him who claims
our love.
Think We there was n bitterness in death
To one so gifted and beloved Mourn ye
Her harp-strings brokcn-that no hand
May wakeH those sweet echo's here again 7
Go, learn of Him the blesscdncss Of death
In whom she trusted from her early years
Yea, at His footstool low, a blessing find
In sweet submission to the will of Heaven.
And ye who lean upon a bruised reed
And find in gaycty and ninth your JOY,
Come to this burial place and learn how vain
Ambitious dreams, or earthly honors here
Weighed in the balance with a Saviours
love.
Weary of earth with all its buried joys,
sought shat ccmctcry's quiet shade,
Aud mid its solitude my spirit learned
To bear each heavy cross with cheerful
heart,
And patient wait for Gods appointed time.
A solemn lesson, ere turned away
Was treasured in that hour. The pride of
earth,
Its honors, oils, and gains-ca,ths treas
ures all
As nothing seemed to Heavens approving
smile.
With soul attuncd to gratitude and praise
turned from that lone cemetery, and went
forth
With chastencd spirit, and grateful heart,
To minglc with the busy world again.
