five live Yankees in the mountains of Kentucky few
months since, returned to this place day two ago
from another successful dash through the enemys lines
in Kentucky. With squadron of 200 men, and during
absence of twenty days he reconnotered thoroughly
the enemys position, inhictng consid rable damage
upon the vanda and watered his horses in the Ohio at

march he encountered the Yankees at four different

Williams, commanding about 800 men of the l4th Ken

miles, succeeded in driving him back into the town. kill.

ESCAPE OF THE RAIDERS.

We have no official news of the Yankee raiders in
their retreat after the destruction of the bridges and
private property at Messy Greek, that they had
passed through Powder Springs Gap of Cnch Mountain
into Powsls Valley closely pursued by SCOTS cavalry.
Various rumors in circulation in the streets last
night among Others that Scott had captured their
tle-y, that they we're flying in great confusion, and
abandoning only their plumber, but their
own equipments in their haste to get out The general
belief however, founded all the reports is that,
ing to the aded condition Of the pursuing cavalry and
the absence of any Confederate forces in front of the
enemy, they will make good their return to Kentucky
wi no great loss.

ROTATION OR CHANGE oFCRoPs.


A subscriber to the Anericas Agricm-
itnist, at Somerset CO., Nd, writes IL
have about 80 acres Of medium quality
tilable land Soil, sandy loan. One
half is in corn The other half'lies fall
low. with natural growth, quite thick
aud green. According 10 the system OF
planting prevailing in this Peninsula, this
fallow ground would be put in corn next
year, and the other palt lie out to recruit
itself with its natural growth. l find that
so much corn makes eKhausting work, and
thing such a system Of tillage is gradu
ally impoverishiDg the soil.
/ think l could do better, as follows
Suppose turn under my present fallow
ground, while it is yet green borrow it
well; drill it with wheat, and Immediately
after give it a top dressing oflime. Leave
enough ground however, of this half, 10
SOW down in oats, TO make grain Tor my
horses. Then next Spring, SOW the whole
half with clover. At the same time flush
up the other half, and put it in some bet
ter gras, (imothy or clover than its natu-
raj growth, to be cut in the Summer and
cur, d for stock, and then turned under in
the fall to receive wheat and cast, and
thence,orh 10 continue one half in wheat
and oats with clover. and the other half in
clover for cutting, and turning under. 1t
seems to me that this system would make
vastly less work especially if having all
necessary machinary,) and would also
rapidly improve the soil, and exterminate
the weeds"
Enthusiastically the proposed
change of treatment would be an improve
ment. The light growth of grass and
weeds ordinarily springpg up on sum
mer fallow, is veay inadequate return to
make to land from which crop of corn
is gathered every alternate year. Corn is
a strong feeder, and must draw heavily
upon the original productive elements Of
the soil, unless there be added something
to replace what is required for the growth
o the crop. Under such system the fer
tlity Of the land will deterioratc year by
year, until it becomes sworn out" as is
seen in thousands of acres in Virginia,
were uninteymitted cultivation of Tobacco
has drained the soil Of its fatness, and left
too poor to pay for blowing, until brought
into condition By the addition of fertliz-
ing material. But the plan suggested.
may be still further improved by the in.
PRODUCTION Of stock to feed off the clover
during the season after the wheat and
oats have been harvested. They will give
good account of the food they consume
in the weight of beef added 10 their frames,
and also in the manure which they have
scattered over the fields. This will more
rapididly bring up the condition of the
land, than removing the larger part ofthe
groth, by cutting and curing 1t will also
be fully as profitable to buy stock in the
Spring, fattcn, and turn them off in the
Fall, as to cut the clover for their con
sumption in Winter.
