A coon MOVE


Our Eastern farmers aud slave owners as we'll as
those in Virginia, are exhibiting some degree Of
anxiety as to their present safety and some of them
are already fastening towards the centre Of our own
State in search of lands To some the rolling lands
of this section appear unnvitng, but it is because
they are used to level plane, and unacquainted
with the usual composition of billy and red Soils
These are, by experience, known to be the most du
rable lands and for cereals, very superior, re-
quiring little manure, and when plowed deeply, al
most certain of CROP Comparing the price Of low
and up country land, farmers will lind ours quite as
cheap, and in addition, the healthiest country.
But suppose it were not so, it is not matter of
choice now whether our Eastern people stay leave.
They see the danger of remaining from what others
suffered last winter, and the same if not greater
danger, threatens them the coming winter. Many,
by being hurried off last fall and securing places Of
safety, lost nothing, and now own property along
our Rail Roads of increased value. Others will no
doubt initiate them the present fall yet many from
their slow movements, are likely to be caught with
their negroes, cotton, corn, cattle, &c But can
they complain? They see some provision should he
made for their safety and support as refugees and
yet stay inviting the Yankee Army to come and
take them!

HOW TO MAKE THE SEA-COAST SALT MEAT
SAVING

Mr.. EDITOR Your correspondent, "Westpha-
lia" furnishes the public with excellent directions
for curing meat, but leaves them with very dis
couragIng impression about our sea-coaSt salt.
After reading his article the public will be apt
to think that the different kinds Of salt he mentions
las Liverpool, Turks Island SeacoastD are essen
tally So while they one and the same salt, only
more or less impure. Chemistry has furnished us
with an exact analysis Of sea water, I'm 1000 lbs oil
it 81 lbs Chloride of Sodium or common salt, 81
lbs of Chloride of Magnesium or Bittern, lbs. of
Sulphate of Magnesia or EPSON Salts, II lbs. Sui
phate of Lime or Plaster of Paris, and traces of
other Substances thIt need not be mentioned) and
pointed that the presence of the highly hygro-
scopic Tor water attractors) Chloride OF Magnesium
(Bittern) in the salt manufactured from sea-water
is the impurity so injurious IN curing meat The
Chloride of Magnesium attracts constantly the
moisture from the atmosphere and imparts it to
the meat and thus eventually spoils 1t. 1t would
not be of much use to take double the quantity OF
the impure salt because, at the same time, double
the Qlantity OF the microscopic substance would be
added The only way to succeed, is to take only
the purest salt and if you have not got that to pu
lily it
The following process is at once simple and et-
fectyc It is apparent that if there fluid that
woud not touch the pure salt, but readily dISs0tre
the Chloride of Magnesium, it would be the easiest
thing in the world to wash and cleanse the salt
Now there is such fuid-and it scarcely costs
anythIng-it is hot saturated solution OF the gerry
salt that has to be purified.
Let us suppose that 100 lbs. of salt had to be pu-
rifed To do this lbs. Of the salt have to be dis
solved in 25 lbs. % gallons of boiling water, Una
king thus saturatc solution, e. one that cannot
dissolve any more sat) and this hot solution has to
be poured upon the 100 lbs. of salt The salt to be
purified may remain in the sack, or better yet, in
CYNICAL filterng bag of some coarse stuff, but the
bag must be put into funnel shaped box that may
easilv be made from any old boards nailed together
1t is better to pour the hot solution gradually or
in several instaments, and not to move or disturb
the salt until the whole of the solution has COM
pletey dripped off 1t is also well not to consider
the lowest layer of salt g. e., that nearest to the
point of the funne) as perfectly pure, and act &C
cordingy Afterwards the salt has to be dried in
the sun or in an oven.
The longer a sample of salt exposed to the air,
keeps dry, the purer it is and samples that dis
solve completely during damp weather, need puri-
flying badly indeed.
Yours, NATRIUM.

MARCHING TO DEATH!-Th National QudrterLv
thus depicts remarkable scene that occurred some
years since on one Of the British transport ships
The commander of the troops on board seeing that
the vessel must soon sink, and there was no hope
OF saving his men, drew them up in order of battle
and as in the presence of human enemy, bravely
faced the doom that was before them. We know Of
no more impressive illustration of the power of mil
itary discipline in the presence of death -
Look at that noble vessel in yon high sea! She
has sprung leak all the resources on board have
been called into play for her release from the deem
but to no avail! The waters are gaining fast on
her-beyond human control. She must sink! A
regiment of brave perfectly disciplined soldiers are
mustered on deck by quick roll of the drum; Off,
GERS and soldiers promptly ill their rank and file
anu shoulder arms See them stand in serried ranks
anu anu completely accoutered for long, long march
NOT a mournul dirge, but the national anthem, is
played oy the band. Yhe regimental colors flutter
IN the the staff that supports them is as firm
as the stout heart OF the ensign that holds it. The
array Of battle is reflected in mournfl annearance
on the lowering clouds, which seem anxious 10 veil
the waters, rippled by the breath of death Insid.
iously does the water leap at last over the buwarks
Of the gallant and doomed ship, and down She goes
The martial voice of the commandant orders, "Pre.

given and calmly executed; the drum beats quicker
ana quicker; the muskets thump on the deck at the

vrIE THERE RE PEACE 2

We have now had a full year and half Of
Civil War under the auspices Of BOrder-State
policy and Pro.Sayery Generals and those
who would have that policy aud those Generals
now say that we have made little or no prog
ress toward suppressiug the Rebellion. From
and after the close Of this month, the President
proposes to try different policy, under the
lead Of Generals who mainly believe in it.
What are the chances Of its SUGGEST
We say, Let the efforts 10 be made under ii
be as generally and fairly supported by the
loyal States az those made under the old policy
have been, and three months viii see the Re-
belion utterly squelched. We do not ask half
50 long trial as the opposite policy has Lad;
give as six months fair trial Of the Emancpa-
ton policy, and if it does not bring the trail
tors to their marrOw-bones, we will own that
it is a failure, and unite ia urging the Govern
ment to make the best attainabie peace. But
we DO not believe that more than three months
will be requisite
Tie standing boast Of The Rebels is TIE
UNANIMOUS determination Of their people to fight
