The fact brings forciby to our mind the loss that the
country at large has sustained by the death of Hon. A

the President. In Mr. Browns case the visit to Chap

youth and early manhood.

Lime for Cotton. etc.

Editor of" South Countrynaan -
DEAR SIR In order to test the value of lime, as
fertilizer, when applied to cotton, ] selected from
stubbleeld of fifteen acres-fve decidedly inferior
in quality to the balarce-and during the second week
n February last without previous breaking, laid off the
rows with long, straight shoves three feet apart
turning in the frrow to make deep trenches
These were filled with wheat straw partially decom
posed; unslacked lime deposited in small heaps at
the end of the rows at convenient distances apart Tor
distribution and seventeen bushels applied to the
regularly and evenly distributed over the straw
The ground was Immediately bedded out in full A few
days before planting, two sweep burrows be
tween each row. and fresh dirt thrown the entire
row. The seed between the 10th and 18th OF
April in furrOw opened down to the straw and cover
ed with a harrow. The stand was imperfect in cOnse
quence of faulty seed the yield, eight hundred and
twenty-five pounds to the acre. l am satisfied, from
previous experience in the cultivation of the same
ground that without the application of the lime, the
Weld would not have exceeded six hundred pounds per
acre. And addition to the increased yield of the past
crop, anticipate equally good results from the coming
crop.
The lime was applied at so late a period that the
straw was not fully converted to manure, and in conse
quence the past crop failed to receive the full benefit of it.
The great desideratum of planters in this section to
secure some agent that will push forward the young
cotton plant rapidly in the spring, and as consequence
to early maturity. Our cotton-growng too
short for the full development of the plant except in ex
traordinary years like the past hence the necessity
using means to supply as far practicable this
defect in the climate by pushing the cotton to early ma
turity.
| am fully convinced, from the small and impcrfectly
conducted experiment by me, that lime will supply this
desderatum Its cheapness and facilities of Transports
ton place it in the power of farmers of limited means
to improve their lands and thereby increase their crops
and the permanency of its effects saves the expenses Of
annual OUTLAWS. Yours, etc.,

The SIckIes Case.

On Monday at II o'clock Mr.. Graham closed his
opening speech for the Defence which he had commenced
on Saturday. His positions were mainly as already
stated He went on to detail the circumstances relied
upon by the defence as going to show that the feelings
of Sickles towards Key had been uniformly those Of
kindness and friendship up to the final discovery of the
great wrong which Key had done him. Even the very
week before-ttle over day previous, this had been
the case. There could therefore be premedtaton
long cherished malice but the reverse The discovery of
the crminaty of the partiesthe written confession of
One-the fearful state of mind into which SickIes was
throWn-the appearance of Key before SickleS door
while the feelings of the latter wrought up to the
highest PITCH are all dwelt upon. Indeed of the
details so dwet upon are rather too prurient for our
humble columns. Of the criminal relations of Key and
Mrs. Sickles there appears to be no question.
Mr.. VIM. Badger, Navy Agent at Philadelphia, j ohm
B. Haskins, Member Of Congress from New York, and
Mr. Dougherty of Philadelphia, were examined with a
view of showing the friendly relations existing between
Key and Sckles up to the very eve of the tragedy.
On Tuesday, the 18th inst being the 9Th day of this
trial, John j. McEhone John D. Hoover Captain God
dard Rev. Smith Pyne, Hon. Robert J. Walker Fran
els Mohun and Bridget Duffy were called and examined
for the defence. McEhone and Hoover testified to the
intimacy between Key and Sckls also to the fact that
this intimacy had been interrupted in March, 1862
ing to certain reports intmating the existence Of i'm
proper relations between Mr.. Key and Mrs. Sickes
this interruption only temporary Sckles expressing
the utmost confidence in Keys honor.
Rev. Smith Pyne had seen Sickles at five o'clock on
the afternoon of Saturday, the day preceding Keys
death. Noticed the wildness of his appearance

the death of Key. Never had witnessed terrible
emotion displayed by any other person that
eVinced by Sickles at that time; his condition was
horrible His sense of shame and disgrace appalling.
Bridget Duffy testifes to the interview between Mr.
and Mrs. Sickles on the Saturday preceding Keys
DEATH She Identifies the confession spoken of having
been made by Mrs. Sickles She Mrs Sickes write
on the sheet paper produced knows the hand writing
to be that of Mrs. S. She, Bridget, together with
M. Ridgeey, attest the document as subscribing wit

The confession of Mrs. Sickles admits the existence
an improper intimacy between herself and Key. Sh
states that she visited house 18th street. eithe
with Key, or for the purpose of meeting Key the oh

arrangement commenced in the latter part of January
although the criminal intimacy commenced in April O

THE AMERICAN MINISTER IN SPAN.-The Madrid

tias
Madam-The President has charged me- in present
ing my credentials as Envoy Extraordinary and Minis

In commencing my official relations with the Court
of Madrid, am confident that shall be permitted to
assure your majesty that personally convinced that
the general desire of the population of the United States
is to retain the old and never interrupted friendship
which, the beginning OF our national existence has
always prevailed with Spain ; and that during my stay
at the Court of your the frank and
sincere conduct which has hitherto been oowed-it will
be my constant effort to avoid any misunderstanding,
and to promote the interests of my country without
prejudice to the amcable relations which happily
exist.
The Queen replied
Sir-I have been highly satisfied at hearing the
timents Of friendship which, in the of the Pres

the friendly relations which happily unite the two States
We believe as you say that this same desire is that of
the generality of the population of the United States

low have the confidence that it will be easy for you
to contribute to preserve the friendship and good har
mony which ought to exist between the two peoples.
take pleasure in believing that your personal quail
ties will facilitate the realization of this noble object
and my government its part will sincerely cooperate
in maintaining that object.
Before giving audience to Mr.. Preston, her Majesty
received Mr.. Dodge, the retiring United States Minis
ter he also said that the President had charged him to
cultivate friendly relations with Spain, and he took
credit to himself for having done So The Iberia
mends that when Mr. Preston makes the expected pro-
position for the purchase of Cuba the Government shall
reply by sending him his passports.
