Island are better thought of; for what
reason, we are yet to understand; and
that matter puzzles us somewhat.
Let this be rs it may, we will not omit
our duty; but still continue to act as we
should !; and, leaving the members of the
Colonial Council to themselves, and to
perform their own duties, we will at once
begin to say what we consider o wrong,
or, perhaps a grievance.
Now, we have had no communication
from st. Thomas since Saturday, and we
write to-day, Thursday at s O'Clock a. m.
Calm weather, we admit, has prevented
the arrival of the packets-the Govern
ment packet, Of course, included.
TO think of such a thing as this, must
bring to the minds of many, a sort of dis
gust and bad feeling. Disgust, we say +;
because the public are humbugged, in
not having stcam-communication between
the islands and, certainly, a very bad
feeling must ensue, when people-even
in the business-line-are deprived of
that communication between the Islands,
which is not only essential to the impulse
of trade here; but also, to the expecta-
tions and comforts of TOO many persons.
In what age do we live Can any one
answer that question honestIy9 Has not
the Colonial Treasury the MEANS to es-
tablish steam-communicatlon between
these islands We believe the Treasury
can afford it consequently, let the Colo
NAL COUNCIL adopt the proper means to
prepare steam-communication at once;
and thereby satisfy the public.
Is it not important for a merchant TO
have his letters answered in due time;
and his orders attended to properly9 Is
it not necessary that single persons-fa-
miles also included-should hear, as
often as possible, of their friends and re-
Iatives? If a proper measure cannot be
thoroughly carried out, we beg to say,
with all politeness, that the public should
not be humbugged in this way; but that
steam-communication should, without
much delay, be adopted.
We could, conscientiousty, dwell much
longer on the subject we have introduced
to-day /; but refrain from doing so, for
certain reasons. Knowing however, that
there is a quarter, and a source, from
whence the Good should flow, we must
stop, and say no more.
The European Mails arrived here yes
terday. The papers do not contain much
of importance. We have, therefore, in
order to give some reading matter in this
issue, introduced a very interesting, and
we may say, important article on tue
treatment of Fellow Fever.
We have heard it said, and we have
read in Wilmer & Smiths Times, that
medals are given to non-commissioned
officers, in the English army, for long
and faithful services; but strange to say,
that this, being customary in the Mother
country, should not be extended TO her
W. 1. Possessions. This tribute of merit is.
with injustice, we say, denied the Danish
army in the Colonies; for what reason
and cause we shall not attempt to say,
nor does it come within bur sphere to of

BRINGING TP woRN- o. LAND.

r From The american 4gricuaurist.
tits ever and anon asserted that the only
systematic and intelligent way to bring up
land that has been run down, is to have the
soil carefully analysed by a professional az
ricultural chemist, to ascertain the lacking
mineral ingredients, and then to topurchase and
apply the same.
Theoretically, this is all very well. But let
us remember two or three things. 1t win be
necessary to analyze nearly every field Of a
farm, if not different portions Of the same
field because the soils VIII be more or less
unlike. Then, too these analyses are expen-
siye. And lastly, they are very liable to ia
tai errors.-prof. S. w. johnson writes 81
do not doubt that in many cases a careful ia-
restigation Of soil-chemieal, physical and
historically genuine, scientific 5a1Wa,
one familiar with science and practice, weuld
afford safe and nearly accurate data for its
proper treatment But this would be always
expensive, and in nine cases out of ten,
would not pay. Soil analysis, at tbe best, is
q chance game and where one wins, a hun
dred may lose
Instead, then, Of looking abroad for some
special process of recon struction, let the far
mer turn to the farm itself and his own braius
aud see what they can do, IF our farm is ex-
hausted, it is because it has been abused, and
to restore it, 1t must receive kind treatment.
Let US see. Some parts Of 1t may need drain
ing. Other parts viii need deeper plow-
ing, and all viii doubtless need more manure,
and cleaner tillage.
The owners Of such farms generally com.
plain that they have not manure enough on
their premises, and cannot afford to buy
more. Then let them try plowing under
green manure, such as peas, buekwheat. and,
best of all, clover. Marvellous results have
been achieved in this way. And muck has
done and will yet do as great wonders. Many
a farm has a bed of this, and ghosoeycr has
il, has mine of wealth. Get it out every
leisure day, and after it has drained, stack it
up with alternate layers Of lime or ashes. IN
a few months. it viii be nearly as eiiicacoas
as so much barn-yard dung DIR. Danna
classes 1t with COW manure IN value. Now,
these two sources Of fertility are enough,
with deeper blowing and cleaner culture, TO
set any 'worn-outn farm on a career Of inn
pgoyement. But as "eyery little helps, the
farmer should save the droppings ofhis poul-
try house, the slops and waste from kitchen
and chamber, the contents of the priyy. al
bones and chips and sods and leaves lin
short whatever win decay. and so become a
