THE REIGN OF ART.-In this wonderful
age, Art laws her master touches on al
most everything. The ceilings over us
and the carpets we tread OH, are hallowed
by Art. Art winds the railway through
the mountains and the mind makes her ma
chimes of wood and iron, to act as If with
knowledge, and annihates space with
Lightning tanned down TO the tuteledge of
boy. Nothing is too lofty for her touch
and nothing too humble. A new proof
of this old conviction, has just fallen an
der our notice, in the shape of Cathartic
Pill from the Laboratory of that world re-
moved Chemist, Doct. j. @. Aver.
If we understand the subject, he has
carried that article to the farthest perfect
ion of which it in capable. Instead of en-
ploying Drugs in its composition. as we
always thought the necessary and only
way, he has with consummate skill ex-
tracted the virtues of the medicine to be
employed and combined them alone II
their purity together. The composition
is then mixed and rolled by machinery anc
steam power into a spheroid pill! which Ii
wrapped in an envelope of gelatine, fo
protection from the effects Of weather O
time, and then thickIy coated with sugar
to serve as passport over the palate
Notwithstanding all this labored perfec tio1
they are offered to The Public at less thar
one cent each. However humble the de
parment, we think this may be safel
characterized as the consummation of Al
in its line Morning NeDS, Bait.

H5rWe are now satisfied that the TEL
eyraph is to have a circulation in Meigs
County, that will correspond with the ac-
knowedged intelligence and reading hab-
its of the people. We venture the asser-
ton that there is not county in Southern
Ohio, where the people, in proportion to
their numbers, take, and read more news
papers, than this. Yet it has SO happened
that this reading has chiefly been of for

They will naturally subscribe for such pa
pers as suit them, as they purchase any
other article they want. This Is perfectly
right and fair and as they preferred other
papers to the Telegraph, they subscribed
for them, of course.
Bat this state of things is now chang
ing; and we are sure that just SO fast as
the paper becomes generally known it will

ERAp1cArIoN OF THE WrEvrL--I

ERADIcAT1oN OF THE WEEvrL.--The
Evening Post states that Mr.. L. Booth, Of
New York, inventor OF Grain Cleaning
Machines, has made experiments in cleans.
ing wheat affected by tho weovil, and con-
cludes that the egg Of tho insect may bo
removed by passing the berry through any
shutting n achine. A large portion of tho
grain which ho subjected to experiment,
seemed to have single blister or slight
prominence upon the terminating end Of
the berry, which was readily removed by
the point of a knife, and tho egg Of the
wecvil discovered. Mr.. Booth is satisfied
that thorough securing and agitation of the
grain removed the glutinous covering OF
the cell containing the egg. and its expos.
ure to the air destroys its degenerating pro-
pertics. And if the wheat is taken in any
condition, after tho insect has passed into
the larve or perfect state, and treated with
any effective shutter, the pest will be com
pletely eradicated. There are other species
Of the same destroyer-one in which tho
egg is deposited in the berry while in a

the egg remains thus protected until the

ROCHESTER, FuLroN Co., Isp.,
July 26, 1853.
Through tho Tribune, as coming to the
greatest number of readers, / wish tn pre-.
sent the following matter of vast Importance
in regard TO the cultivation of wheat.
| / planted last Fall Eve rows of wheat,
with spaces between different rows, of three
feet, two feet, end eighteen inches; this
was kept clean with the hoe. and the pro-
duet is as follows: average number of
stalks from each seed, nearly thirty two
number Of grains to the head, seventy
two to one hundred. pr
Thus il we count less than really grew,
say thirty stalks from each grain of seed,
and seventy-two the fewest number of
grains found in any one head. we get at
tho rate Of over two thousand fol-, and
from that to three thousand two hundred,
containing the highest yield From the
year ls45 to 1865, the average of wheat
in this and parts of tho adjoining counties,
according to my record, was less than
eight bushels to the acre, tho very best be-
ing thiriy-threc bushels. Iudian corn sown
broadcast, Mt the rate of from one 10 two
bushels, will yield larger average, but
when planted in our usual way produces
from thirty to ono hundred bushels per
acre.
My object in writing this is to bring
the facts TO the notice of aorculturalists. and
to induce as many as possible 10 try tho
experiment on as much land as they arc
willing to experiment with. I hope those
ishiDg to test the matter will get the
wheat in bef're The last Of August. Ilay
off the ground two feet each way. and
put four grains to each hill. and keep clean
till next harvest. 1t must be put in early
: no matter how soon after harvest. This
will give thirty stalks to the square foot,
and 104,0s9,o00 grains to the acre; which
allowing s98,5eO grains to the bushe,
gives nearly one hundred and sixteen
bushels 10 the acre. Tho estimate is q
correct one, based upon actual facts, and !,
although it looks like wild calculation,
will, l think, prove so nearly correct as
to help reform our present slovenly and
extravagant mode of wheat culture. Tho
quantity Of seed required to plant an acre
is only trife only atrho over five pounds,
if put in as above described. Where my
wheat stood in rows, three fcctapart, whcn
ripe tho heads appear nearly as thick to-
gethcr as in field of broadcast wheat, and
instead Of being from two to three inches
in length were from six to seven
