Frightened.

The Springfield Ne,os has got the notion
into its head, that the Democratic party
contemplate nominating General SHER-
MAN as their candidate for Governor,
and calls upon the Abolitionists to nominate
their strongest man for that Office, in
view of this supposed fact. So, then,
General SHERMAN has some strength
with the people, Notwithstanding Sec
retary STANTON and the Abolition PRESS
undertook to shake their confidence in him

The New York Herald says:
There has never been an enterprise inaugurated
inthis city, which has been more generally patron
lied or given more general satisfactoi than that Of
the Presentation Entertainment given by the New

The eNow York Tribune says: , -. -,..,
The best artists procurable in the city, are en-

the determination of the directors to leave nothing

to know what they will receive. The present is Civ

Theory OF Land Drainage.

A plaut, though spreading its roots to
n certain distance ,l around it in the soil
is stationary, and must have its food
brought to it. That is the first main fact
on which the need depends for current
of water through the land. Water, .
powerful solvent, brings substances out of
the air which plants require as food, and
these substances Increase its powers as
solvent Of other matters in the soil which
the plant alsQ needs as food. Moreover,
water brings from the air materials of use
IN the soil in manufacturing food for the
use Of plants. On all these grounds.
then, it is Of importance that water
should 90 throusl. the soil after going thro'
the air. 1t becomes laden with vegeta.
blc food by passing through the open air,
and it bccomesstilI more laden with veg.
e'abIe food by passing through the soil,
till, when traversing the soil, it passes
stationary roots and enters them, and
feeds the plants TO which they belong
Aud these are special reasons why rain
water should be induced to pass through
the soil rather than lie stagnant on it. In
the latter place it is not only useless to
the plant, but it is directly miscLieyops.
BY evaporation it cools the surface.
whereas by peroola,ion through the land
1t carries tho warmer temperature of the
surface into the subsoil and Of what
value this is to the growth Of the crops
may be gathered from the experience Of
the last autumn, which has been SO pro-
ductive Of growth IN our pastures to 80
unusually late season,-uot SO much
from the Increased temperature of the
air during November and December
which has been only 2 deg. or 3 deg.
above the average Of the last thirty years,

soil and >u9soi at one anl two feet deep,
which has been 3 deg. and deg. above.

Management Of Muck in Com
posting,

The following statement was made BY
Moses Z. Wentworth; the successful ap-
plicant for tie premium offered by tho
Kennebec Agricultural Society, for tho
best premium in the use of muck:
1.-The following is tae method | prac-
tice in the preparation and use Of muck
on my farm in Winthrop, and which I
find very beneficial. BY thus composing
it, Increase my dressing two.thirds more
than | could have without it, and | think
it so prepared makes very much better
dressing than barn-yard manure alone
[ dig the muck as soon after haying as I
can, that being generally the dryest sea-
son Of the year, and the sun and the air
will have good effect upon it before |
take it to the barn-yard.
Before moving this muck, after it has
been dug, ! clear my barn.yard of the
previous years accumulation Of dressing,
say on the FIRST of November. or before
the ground freezes-cnrting it out into
the field where propose to plant corn
the next season, or for the purpose Of
top-dressing, &c. | then haul into the
vacant yard the muck, aud spread evenly
all over the surface. My cattle are then
allowed to run over and stand upon it
during the fall and winter. In the spring
as soon as it is dry enough, [ run the
pow through it, and follow this practice
during the summer.

mer nights. | have barn cellar, into
which | drop the manure from my cattle
during the winter and spring, and when
eyer housed. This / fork over in the
-pring, and during the summer, keeping
It in the cellar until the last Of AuguSt of
first of September. then commence
mixing the p la in my cellar with the
muck in the yard, in the proportion Of
one-thrd manure from this cellar to two
thirds muck in the yard frequently plox!

gether as intimately as 1 can unt;l it 10
tlpe to haul into the field.
stated taat cleaned my yard just
before the ground closed up for winter,
aud the sooner it freezes after it is oqt
the better, as it prevents evaporation or
further drying. / drop it in long pile,
and stack it into a sharp ridge, like the
roof OF house, hattng it,and smoothing
the sides with my shovel, which causes il
to shed rams, and you'll find it all there
in the spring.
Muck prepared in this way meyer failed
to give good crops, and proves more last
ing for the hay crop than the same
amount of manure does. l have now
about Is cords, which is my usual amount
prepared every year.
