PREPARING SoIL.--This crop s SO similar to corn in
all its habits and requirements that any who
make good crop Of corn can likewise make good
crop of Sorghum. For both crops thorough poughing
is matter of first Importance. The roots Of such plants
generally penetrate to great depth the best cub
soil plough can reach. The more deeply the soil is
broken, then the extensive will be the of
nourishment and the more completely will the crop be
guarded against drought.
1t is point of no little Importance 10 have the soil
intended for Sorghum well pulverized The young
plant is not vigorous that Of corn, and conse.
quently, the germ when coming up makes its Wsy
through the overlyiDg soil with greater dhculty.-
Cods rough manure, or any similar obstacle may en-
trey prevent the germ from finding it's way to the open
air. To avoid this difficulty, which is generally
fined to clay Soils winter poughing should be resored
TO- wherever practicable. Frost ar surpasses the hor
row in reducing cloddy surface.
MANURIEG-In this crop as in corn, manure can be
made most available by being applied IN the bill; but II
manure s abundant and the farmer pEeirs to give the
whole surface Of bis land dressing, he may spread it
broad cast If howerer he wishes to improve both land
and growing crop to the highest degree let the
be applied top dressing after the ground has been
thoroughly broken up. II the manure is applied some
time before planting, the soluble portions carried
down by rains, become incorporated with the soil are
more fully elaborated, and thus become ready to feed
the plant its ootg begin to Pread themselves
in search of nourishment.

Bishop seems emulous of sharing the fate of Valandig-
ham:
l. An effective tribute to the closing acts of Bu-
chanau's Administration
2 The South didn't commence the war.
g. Old John Brown did.
A. Slavery had nothing to do with it.
s. The attempt TO throw reinforsments into Fort
Sumter was the chip on the shoulder F." which the
South dared to disturb
6. That the botioniss iLstjgated the attempt in
order to naugurate hostIlities
T. Democrats must declare open, determined war
against the Administration.
g. Not another rap should be spent, not another man
recruited unless Mr. Lincoln turns copperhead III bis
policy.
9. The object of the Administration is to ensave
one State alter another and where this object cannot
be accomplished by other means, mercenary soldieIy
will reduce them to bondage.
TO- By the lst OF November every Democrat will be

VALUE OF OxRA.

David ETart, Esq, writing OF Okra to tn South
CGrOtlnian, says:
While reading an article republished in your valua.
BILE paper, under date Of the 9th inst, entitled Okra
Hemp, the following thoughts suggested themselves
l. 1t Is fbrous plant, and snch may be convert
ed into some of the useful arts.
2. The seed be compressed the result will ba
US ful OIL equal to- and answering most II not all the
purposes OF olive oil.
3. Tie cakes after compression are equal to the
cakes OF nseed oil alter compression for the food of
stock.
4. The seed has been often used with approval as
substitute for coffee.
5. The bulls of the seed eagerly sought after by
stock.
6. The residue OF the stalk, after the fbles will
have been removed will answer for litter for stock
thereby producing large quantity of valuable man
ure.
Z. It's value an Ingredient in soup and as vege-
table the table, alone too we'll known quire
any remarks from any one.
AS to that variety of the Okra best adapted to the
arts the soil culture, composs, manner of preparing
and dressing for the and purposes intended must be
necessarily left to the observation reflection and tn The
experience Of its cultvators
The fact which has BEEN published that it's strength
o. fibre is considerably less than hemp, ought by
any means to retard its experimental cultivation,
1t is admitted fact that the texture and strength
of both flax and hemp have been vastly improved since
their first introduction Why not the ibre of the Okra
also?
l know of no plant more deserving of notice and
practical consideration than Okra.
