THE PEANUT CULrURE.-For many
years past, the ground. pea has been q
most important element of commerce
in the Cape Fear country-the annu-
al expectation to the Northern States
and Canada considerably exceeding
100000 bushels. A single planter in
one Of our eastern counties obtained
from II yearly income Of 100000.
He raised from fifty to seventy.fve
bushels to to the acre, and cultivated
FIVE acres to the hand, which at 81 a
bushel--the ordinary price, though
81 25 were frequently realized-yiel-
ded an income OF from $3.50 to $500
to the hand. No such result, under
the old system Of labor, could be OBJ
tanned with the staples on similar
soils. Our cotton planters contented
themselves with crop yielding from
$l2 to $15 per acre, and it was the
summing up on a large surface that
gave living result. The cultivation
Of no crop is so easy, and only the
simplest implements are required
first the pillow, to break the land, and
then simply the sweep and wedding
hoes. The average crop, as we have
stated, is from fifty to seventy-fve
bushels to the acre, besides which
there will be left on the ground
enough to fatten one hundred pounds
of pork. The vine, when the pea is
removed, makes an excellent forage
for cattle--said to be equal to the
best northern hay. From the nut is
expressed most valuable oil. During
the war just closed this oil was uni
versally used in our machine shops,
and its lubricatory properties are pro-
nounced by competent authority, to be
superior to those of whale oil, for the
reason that it does not gum at all

continent. Such, and so varied and
important, are the uses to which this
simple product can be devoted uses
which the uniformed, who have, per-
haps regarded it only in the light of
an indigestible bulb, would never sus-
pect to proceed from its cultivation

The HYDRAULIC ENaINE.-Much
speculation exists in the public mind
in regard to this extraordinary inven-
ton. The revolution which it will
bring about when brought into gen.
era use, 10 all that relates to that
first principle Of mechanics, motive
yower, will astonish the world. No
necessity then for our ocean steamers
to carry thousands of tons of coal for
fuel. No fear of explosions and the
fearful loss oflife consequent upon them.
No danger to be apprehended from
conhagrations through careless en-
ployes. No heavy bills to be paid for
fuel. The elements--water and and
