THE TROUBLES OF THE PRINCE REylvED.-Des
patches from Canada up to Saturday uight led US
to believe that the Orangemen excitement had sub
sided, and that the Prince would be allowed to pro-
ceed on his tour without further annoyance from
| that source. This, however, is not the case On
Sunday his Royal Highness attended church and
on the way the Duke of Newcastle gave orders to
the coachman to drive by unexpected route, in
order to avoid an Orange arch. A great crowd of
people were thus disappointed, and the most in
tense excitement caused A mob surrounded
| the church, hooting and hissing and when the
Prince and party appeared and entered their car
| riage, a movement was made to unharness the
horses and draw them forcibly under the Orange
arch, but the cOacLman whipped up the horses and
| they escaped.
| The correspondent of the New York Herald says:
The disturbance ceased here, but it was feared
it might become more general, it is said on good
authority that 800 Roman Catholics have formed
| themselves into society, and go armed in of
| an appeal to brute force Manager Shany, of the
Grand Trunk Railroad declares that he will pro.
duce force enough to sweep the streets of Orange
men in moment if any riot is attempted. Grand
| Master Cameron declares that he will trample his
Oran ge robe under his feet fa riot is caused during
| the Princes stay.
nine O'CLOCK, P. Must before dusk this
evening, the Duke of Newcastle and the Governor
General took walk out to see the city. They
| were dressed in plain Clothes and were not recOg
| nized by the people until upon their return from
the walk, and were again near the government
| house. As soon as word passed who they were, a
crowd of about thousand persons chased them
down the street, hooting, yelling, and shouting all
kinds of opprObriOus epithets. The Duke and Gov
ernOr General were pushed violently against the
stone gate-posts OF the Government House as they
were striving to enter, and the Governor was con-
sderaby bruised about the arms and shoulders.
After parting cheer the mob then dispersed.
The city is quiet to night, with but few people in
the streets or churches, but extra policemen have
been appointed and sentnels have been doubled at
/. Government House.
Besides receiving an address from Mr.. Cam
eron, the Orange Grand Master, at the barristers
reception last evening, the Prince opened the ball
, with Mrs Cameron, causing some remarks thereby.
The Prince was taken out of church to-day by
the rear or vestry door, and this attempt at
cealment increased the excitement.
TURNING IN GREEN CRors-August and Septem-
Der are proper months to enrich land by blowing.
For mere plowing is of service, though no manure
is applied But at this season of the year there is
much green matter on the surface which will not
be eaten by cattle Sheppard it is therefore
cumberer Of the ground"
Old pasture grounds-oId plains, which have not
felt pow for twenty years-are bearing moss and
Of L..
tured by cattle that deserve better fare. Six
eight acres are allowed to each COW to keep her
alive. She picks and selects enough to keep her
from starving, and goes home at night to fill up
with something other in the COW yard. Not to
fill up the pail for she has not the means.
Many OF our old pastures are so rough and rocky
that 1t Is not profitable to plow them. Let them
to wood, unless tho rocks wanted. In such case
dig them up and bring the land to bearing. Some
of our strongest soils are full of rocks, and may be
prOfitaby cultivated.
But are speaking Of extensive plains
which are not burdened with rocks. They may be
easily plowed, and ought not to lie idle.
These plains may be enriched by merely plOwing
in what naturally grows them. Even without
sowing any kind of seed for green crop, the
process is called summer tilling-or summer fall
lowing. But it is better to sow something and
have it growing, if it is only barn chaf seeds of
weeds-ior green weeds are good to be buried in
all soils.
On these poor plains something should be sown
that Will grow on a poor soil. Glover has often
in but 1T will not grow poor land. Buckwheat
will grow two feet high where clover would hardly
show its head. Two sowings of buckwheat may be
plowed in during the same season. The first NAV
be sown by the middle of May and turned under
in the latter part of June, before having COM
mences. Then another seeding, of bushel an
acre, will get six weeks growth by the middle
of August, when it may be turned in and the land
may be seeded down for moving or for pastur-
ing, and a good growth may be expected the next
year.
Now, it is not to be supposed that by plowing in
two crops of buckwheat the land will be made very
rich. But if it shall bear four times much for
seven years to come it had done, it is something
in the way of improvement, unless the plowing and
narrowing and seed shall cost more than the i'm
proved value OF the land, or than the extra pro-
duce
let it is objected by few farmers that you gain
nothing by turning in the crop on the ground, be-
cause your growing crop takes as much virtue out
of the soil you turn back into it. The answer to
this is that the growing crop does not obtain half
its food from the soil-but gathers its living from
the atmosphere. 1t the plants gained all their nu-
triment from the soil, the argument would hold
good, but all should know that this is not the case.

THE MEMPHIS KIDNAPPING CAsE--We understand
that the individual who was forciby taken to the
Arkansas side in a skif Sunday last, by three
unknown men, was one IL. A. Marsh who formerly
resided in st. Louis, Missouri, whence he removed
to Galveston, Texas, four or five years since, and
from there, within a few months, to the town OF
Camden, Arkansas. Being warned by citizen of
the latter place, few days since, that he was
suspected of free soil prOciVties, and that unless
he took safety in flight, he would soon be ''dancng
in the air." he left and came to Memphis. He de-
MED both earnestly and vehemently the imputation
of being an aboitienst, and protested his inno-
cence to the bitter end. Mr.. Cleveland, the agent
of the California Overland Mail route, informs
that three men, with prisoner, passed by stage
yesterday from Madison to Little Rock. Doubtless
they were the parties above alluded to. There is
just cause to suspect that Marsh has been made
the victim of conspiracy against his life or per-
son.-Nemphis Arg~s Sept 3.
REsIGNATIoN OF THE SUPERINTENDENT OF THE HAIR
pER's FERRY ARMoRY.-Col. Alfred NJ. Barbour,
Superintendent of the Harpers Ferry Armory, re-
signed his position yesterday, to take effect n",
the first OF October. Col Barbour has been tStad-
full ofncer, and resigned his position on account of
political differences between him and President
Buchanan. He is the elector at large on the Doug.
las electoral ticket for Western Virginia. In re,
porting the resignation to the Secretary of War,
the Chief of the Ordnance Department, Col. H. X.
Craig, stated that he deeply and sincerely regretted
that circumstances had determined Col. Barbour to
resign, as he was a most efficient officer.
General Wheat, late of the Liberal army in Mexi-
co, sailed in the Vanderbilt from New York
Saturday with the intention of joining Garbaldi at
Naples. 1t is understood that General Wheat is
backed financially in his undertaking by Mr.. Saml.
Brannon, wealthy gentleman in California. The
example of the General will be followed by Col.
Charles c. Hicks, who, it is reported, will leave IN
the next steamer.
