1t is the same epidemic that ragged m this
State IL the winters of al and '4S, which
broke up our Legislature, and which car
ried to the grave every one it touched,
until the old fashioned hemlock sws~ts
were adopted, after which every case was
saved.
Our people sent about twenty-five miles,
and procured hemlock boughs, and they
sent for it from all parts Of the State.
There was company here, that was
called the Hook and Ladder Company"
that for weeks did nothing night and day
but 60 from house to house, giving hem
lock sweats, and it saved every case
Thorough sweating might do, but there is
no mistake about the hemlock sweat being
specific. you connot get it twenty
FIVE or thirty miles north of here, and if
the disease does not abate, will get it and
send you a box by express.
p. S.-If any Of your family should be
taken, and you connot get hemlock, sweat
them Thompsonian fashion at once.

at the same time observe, that under scientific cuItiva-
ton there is every reason to believe that soils will no

reference to this Mr.. Johnson ObSerVes,-"I have often
had occasion to enter my protest against the very COM
mon and daluSive phrase of a soil being tired of any
crops q. c. worn OUT; such an explanation is a mere
subtertuge, and is Just as reasonable an explanation of
an agricultural fact as to say that the land is tired Of
bearing the weight ofthe farmers barns or ofhis house"
He then instances localities in which the same crops
had been grown from time i%mmemorial, and adds, "No,
no let Us not be told of tired earthS' or mixtures of
earths, for IN such cases it is not the soil which is
weary, but 1t is the cuItivatOr who is tired Of adding

abound IN nitrate of potash (saltpetre), such as the

but when watered with a weak solution of il. their
growth is very materially promoted. The same re-
marks apply to those plants which contain common

result invariable."
Conclusive as these observations are, they are vet
rendered more SO by the fact, that where large uuanti-
ties OF gypsum have been used for many years, it has
been found not only not to have produced additional
benefit, but, on The contrary, that The crops have de-
Perforated. This is what we could not have expected, a
pr1orl; but 1t is satisfactorily accounted for by the sup
position, that Ny increasing the amount of crop large

movement, but he is nevertheless a
tool OF designing ring, who, being
cut off By the figmness anl bo"est !,
of Gov. Brown from their w0nted

from corrupt administration,
would now sacrifice both Brown
and Cheatham, and the State too. as

Under such circumstances We must

him if granted would compromise
the interest of the State, and estab-
