The use of Land Plaster has long been in
vogue, ana its merits fully appreciated in the
Eastern and Middle states, but the fertile
lands of the north west have hitherto seemed
to be equal to any draft the careless husband
man might make upon it. But the deterio-
ration Of the soil is becoming yearly more APP
parent in the decreasing yield per acre in all
the Older portions of the country. There is
no longer a doubt, but that the ground land
plaster which has been so long used in the east
to such good advantage, might be used on
many of the older farms in this county with
equal advantage.
The following, on the use of plaster, and the
crops to which it is adapted will be read with
interest:
KINDS OF SOIL MOST REQUIRING IT:
Are those that are light, dry and sandy, OF
open but they should contain some veget-
able matter to aid in the decomposition OF
the plaster, otherwise its value is destroyed
Therefore to use it upon sandy barrens, We
must bare it in mind to also add some muck
or barn yard manure.
|, Stiff, .mucky soils, in which the vegetable
matter is slow to decay, is also much improv
ed for grass or vegetables, if applied in warm
damp weather. On clayey soils that are stiff
it acts more slowly, and if applied in too wet
a season will do no good, unless applied di
rectly to the leaves of the growing plants
while damp with dew. Any soil that is seri
ousy influenced by drought in dry season.
can be very much improved by the influence Of
the sulphuric acid in absorbing the moisture
OF dew or slight rains, and holding it upon the
plants and earth during the heat of the day
instead of allowing the SUMS rays to yolatilizc
itand carry it away.
Any person can prove this beyond doubt
by actual experiment. 1t is upon the same
principle that salt will become moist in damp
day while things around it remain dry. This
one property alone of Gypsum or Land Plas-
ter, to absorb moisture, is almost invaluable,
to farmers having land that becomes dry
about the time that crops are maturing and
also pasture lands that fail in dry times, to
afford feed to stock, can be greatly benefited
by it's use in the manner before stated. The
crops most benefited are clover, wheat, pota-
toes, buckwheat, turnips, beans, peas, hemp
and Hurd' s-grass, sc.

the oficia! announcement of the supreme
authority in the State, and this arraign-
ment can only be made in order to annoy
peaceful citizens and endeavor to brighten
timid and ignorant persons from exercis-
ing their privilege.
Fortunately no such troubles exist in this
State. No one has been DISTINGUISHED, eth
er by State or Federal enactments, simply
for participating or aiding in the war. 10
work Acknowledgement in North Carolina
two elements must concur: First, the office
and official oath to support the Constitution
of the United States: Second, engaging after
ward in the war. Both must exist to work
Acknowledgement, and must happen in the
order of time mentioned. A person who
has held an office and taken the oath to
not qt1erpard engaged in the war, is not
disqualified. So, too, person who has
engaged in the war, but has not before held
an Office and taken that oath, is not dis
qualified.
Our people, therefore, when our District
Commander issues special order, defining
by name which officers are excluded and
which not, will have no trouble in deciding
upon their own cases, and if registrars will
only regard their oaths and duties, and not
work in obedience to the orders of caucus
or league, there can possibly be no Difficult
ty here. The duties of the Boards will be
very simple and the rights of the citizen
plain, and registration need not be pro-
tracted or delayed. The good order and
admirable bearing of the people of this
State need not be disturbed by unnecessa-
ry excitement, and the registration and the
election should be conducted with that de-
corum and law abiding character for which
North Carolinians are noted.

Registration In Virginia.

Registration under orders from General
ScHoFIELD, has been progressing for sever
al days in Virginia, and the blood-hounds
of party, who seem determined to leave no
stone unturned to control the State, have
arraigned two of the prominent citizens OF
Richmond before the United States Com
missioner for perjury, upon the ground
that the State Constitution, adopted at
Alexandria during the war, disfranchised
all persons who aided the rebellion" af-
ter April 1864, and consequently coming
under that clause of the Reconstruction
Act which expressly disqualifies from vot-
ing "such as may be DISTINGUISHED for par
ticipation in the rebellion
This is a shallow and transparent trick
to brighten the citizens OF that State and
prevent them from registering. If it was
true, that under the operation of the Alex
andria Constitution, all persons who had
participated or aided in the war were dis
franchised, nine-tenths of the white citizens
would fall under the objection. In the
first place, the Alexandria Constitution has
been legally amended and the clause dis
franchising persons for engaging in the
war, stricken out. In the next place, had
it not been amended, the entire State Gov
eminent has been declared illegal and pro-
visional, and all its laws in conflict with
the Congressional enactments are null and
void. And finally, General ScHoF1E1D. who
is made the judge of the highest jurisdiction,
has declared in his registration order that
emo one is disfranchised for participation
in the rebellion, unless he previously held
some one Of the Offices named" This is
