Newspaper Success.

The Daily appeal, at Memphis, of
Wednesday, comes to us upon an enlarged
sheet. On the LIST day of January, 1851,
the Daily Appeal, after temporary sus-
pension, made its appearance on a sheet of
"a 10y 81 inches, and with circulation Of
l44; the impression Of Wednesday, June
II, was on a sheet 81 by AS inches. with
circulation Of 1900. 1t is now the
largest daily paper in the State, and it is
but just to say that we consider it one of
the most digni6ed and courteous partizan
papers, of its party, in the South or West.
We hail its success as a gratifying evidence
that the people appreciate a calm and
temperate expression Of political senti-
ment, and that they will support newspa-
pers of this type, in preference to those of
a different character.
We most heartily and sincerely differ
with the APPEAL in politics, and shall leave
no honorable means unemployed 10 con-
vince II, aud the people, Of what we deem
the terror Of its ways But we believe
that no evil viii flow, either to the public or
the public interest, from fair aud manly
discussion Of political issues and opinions.
While. therefore, we can cross lances in
honorable discussion, we can also, without
violence to our feelings, Congratulate our
contemporary upon bis Pecupiary success
and prospects.

There is 5 pounds OF pure sulphur in every
100 pounds of wool.
Carrots consume 1919 pounds of lime to
tho acre turnips but 90 pounds
cubic foot of common arrable land will
holm 40 pounds of water.
1t takes five pounds of corn to form one of
beef. Three and half pounds of cooked
meat will form one pound of pork.
To add one per cent. of lime to a soil that
is destitute of it, requires 10 tons of Stacked
lime, or caustic, to the acre.
Clay will permanently improve any soil
that is sandy or leachy. Lime and leached
ashes will also benefit leachy land.
A ton of dry forest leaves produce only 500
lbs. of mould hence, 500 lbs. of mould will
produce a ton of plants.
Clay, applied to sandy land, is far better
than sand to clay land. 16O tons to the acre
will give an inch in depth.
Pure phosphorus is worth from four thou
sand to five thousand dollars ton and as it
comes from the earth, it shows how scarce it
is.
A rich mould formed by rotting clover, is

Swamp muck, or peat, when dry, will take
up, without dripping, four times its own
weight of water. Hence the necessity OF
thorough drainage.
Limestone sand retains the heat the long.
est; black, peaty soils radiate heat most rap
idly, consequently cools soonest, and is first
to experience frost.
The reason why peas, beans, and clover ro-
tate so successfully with wheat is, that these
crops draw comparatively very little SILICA
from the soil, but leave it for the wheat.
NTangel wurtzel consumes 160 lbs. of COM
mon salt to the acre. If it is not in the soil
in the form Of chloric acid and sodium, salt
must be applied to the soil, or a poor crop
will be the result.
Guano contains salts Of ammonia, alkaline
| phosphates, and other mineral substances
necessary to produce the grain of wheat, but
is deficient in the elements necessary to form
roots and straw.
Wheat sown in December has ripencd and
ready for harvesting by the middle Of May in
| Georgia, while that sown in September is
not ready to harvest before July in Maine
so that as many chemical changes take place
in Georgia in five months as in Maine in ten.
These changes consist in decomposing both
organic and inorganic substances, and in rem
dering them soluble for the use of plants

SIN SHoRTEN's LlFE.-Every form Of sin
tends to precipitate the ruin of the trans
gressor. 1t hastens the final CATASTROPHE
Not violent passion can man Indulge which
does not tear his heart strings.
How often has a sudden excess of rage
broken the golden bowl of life! Why are
men so eager to reach the end of their course?
On the other hand, every Christian virtue
tends to prolong as we'll as sweeten human
life. Kind emotions, right affections, and
activity in doing good, all fortify and confirm
the powers of the body, as we'll as the mind.
Not only is the intellect clearer, but the
sleep is sounder, and the limbs are stronger.
Such a man has nothing to fire his brain,
or accelerate his blood or to cause his heart
to beat violently with rage or fear. Thus it
often comes, as the reward of faith, and pa
thence, and charity, as we'll as Of honor and
reverence to father and mother, that the
days of the obedient, the kind, the gentle,
and the good, are made long on earth.

DON'T BE 1DLE.-Work, if you don't get
your full wages every Saturday. You will
get them by and by, and you need not lose
your time because "times are so hard" Go
on with your work, for it will not help the
times for any one to quit his employment and
stand around with his hands in his pockets,
bemoaning his being 'hard run" Business
must 60 on, work must be done the same as
ever. The only difference is we must forgo
all idle and costly pleasures, and economist
more. This is the best course to bring
''times'' all right again.

The Demand for Illinois Lands.

1t is estimated that 100000 inhabitants will
be added to the population of Illinois the
present year. The demand for Illinois farm
ing lands has never been greater than it has
this season.
Much of the improved lands in the south
ern and central parts Of the State have been
and are now being sold to actual settlers
Where there are ten acres sold to spectators,
hundreds are sold to the settlers.
In 1850 the number of acres sold under
cultivation in the State was 5,O29,543, which
has since increased to about 100000 acres
leaving still some 25,OOO,0OO acres to be re-
duced to cultivation.
This enco uraging state of things is attribu-
ted to the fact, which agrcuturalists general
ly are satisfied of, that Illinois is destined to
be the greatest agricultural State in the
Union. Her soil is richer and more produc-
tive, in the aggregate, than that of any 9TH
er State, and the facilities of getting produce
to market are equal to those of any State in
the Union.
The man who OWES q farm in Illinois is
possessed of mine of inexhaustible wealth,
and may we'll consider himself among the
most fortunate of carth's creature :.-.Monnt

THE GAS LAMPs.-Although the last three
or four nights have been very dark, not q
lamp in the whole city has been lit. While
citizens are being taxed to pay for the gas
and lamps are on every corner, it looks ride
ulous for them to go about at night aouh lam
terms in the streets.
On Wednesday night several accidents &C.
CURED from this cause. On East Seventh
street, team ran over some distractions in
the street, although the lamps stood near by,
and pitched the driver out, ran away, smash
ing things up. 1t is wonder they were not
killed, as the night was pitch dark.
A team also ran away near the Winslow
House, and as the driver could not 500 :.
length ahead, ran into something, and broke
his wagon. A lamp had to be lit to enable
him to fix things up.

THE UPPER Ten IN TRoUBLE.-The re-
vulsion affects to degree of which no con-
ception can be formed the fortunes and annu
al incomes of the upper ten. During the
present year neither banks nor railways, nor
any other species Of joint stock enterprises,
will yield anything like their usual dividends.
People who have been living on incomes de.
rived from investments in those concerns will
be cut off from their accustomed resources
and thrown on their beam ends. This will, OF
course, tend to diminish the business of the
fashionable hotels during the winter, and to
depreciate the value of real estate in the fash
ionable parts of the city. Houses in the fifth
avenue, and in the squares will lose one hall,
or at least one third, of their former value
Mansions that a year ago would have fetched
from fifty to sixty thousand dollars, will
probably in the next few months be sold for
from twenty. five to thirty thousand dollars.
The cheap bargains will not be confined to
dry goods and crockery.-New York Herald.

Pauperisn.

Pauperism.
There is something terrific, as we'll as dis
gushing, implied in this word-"Pauperism :"
and theirs is not in the English vocabulary
more significant term, nor one in whose
meaning the interests of the whole people are
more deeply involved. l. is an evil that has
been fearfully increasing in most of the large
commercial and manufacturing cities and
towns throughout Christendom, as they have
increased in business, wealth and general
prosperity. 1t has attained its most gigan-
tic growth and strength under the shadow of
palaces, in the midst of Astounding wealth,
princcly revenues, and sumptuous luxuries !;
and in many Of the most thriving cities, both
in Europe and America, it has, during the
last half century, far outstripped in its in
crease the proportion of the aggregate in
crease of the population. 1t has not yet as
sumed its worst forms in this highly favored
and too prosperous city. But it reposes
within our purlieus, revels in our lanes and
alleys, celebrates its orgies in novels and gar
rets and haunts our streets, beseising the
doors of our dwellings,. We may, as others
have too long done, treat the subject of pau
perism and mendicancy lightly-parmit, in
dulge, pity, partially relieve, and at times
promiscuously lavish our bounty upon their
victims but, depend upon it, they will not
treat the more thrifty and productive classes
lightly nor even relax their claims upon them
SC long as they are tolerated or allowed to
exist as q caste.
However trfiing the subject of abject pow
erty and its concomitant vices and miseries
may be considered by the multitudes en-
crossed in the ordinary business and cares of
life, there are many of the greatest philan-
thrOpists in the old and new world, including
noblemen, statesmen and even princes, who
consider pauperism the great problem OF the
age. The inquiry cannot be suppressed,
whether this is the legitimate result OF great
national and individual prosperity--of civili-
cation and spread of ChriatianityE While
the British nation has been making vast
strides in public and individual accumula-
tions. increasing the power and grandeur of
the government, and filling the Golfers of mil
lions of her subjects at home and abroad,
while these are revealing in luxury, and send
ing Bibles, missionaries and the blessings of
Christian civilization ~ into the heart of
benighted heather nations, her paupcrs at
home have increased from one to sixteen per
cent. of the people of Old England, and their
cost Of sustenance from three to forty millions
In a merely pecuniary and economical point
of view alone-the lowest that can be taken
the subject assumes grave attitude.
