Worn-Out Soils.

Our American farmers talk a great
deal about worn-out soils. just as
though land would not remain fertile
forever II as much plant food was re-
turnrd to ii as is taken out. In the
best agricultural districts of Europe Il
farmer is. expected to constantly in
crease the fertility of his land instead
of wearing it out.
Mr.. Lawes, of England. made exper-
iments with soil owned in one family a
thousand years. lie sowed piece
continuously to wheat for twcnty-scv-
en- years, with an average crop Of 1if-
teen and five-eighths bushels per acre.
A piece in barley nineteen years gave
twenty bushels per acre, and a piece in
grass fourteen years gave $500 pounds
ayear. This soil consequently repre-
scented the. condition of the soil, with
the ordinary cultivation and rotation
rs practiccd, but similar land of the
same farm, to which fourteen tons Of
manure were applied, produced thirty
six bushels of wheat and thirty-siX
bushels of barley: and with 200 pounds
of sulphate of ammonia. and 800 of
phosphate, it produced forty-eight
bushels of barley. This again shows
the value of manure in England, and
the increased fertility of its soil through
the application Of manure: and any
farmer knowing the cost of manure in
his locality, may easily estimate wheth-
or ii will pay him to use il or not
bearing in mind always that ii is much
cheaper, aud easier to keep, up the fer
tiIity OF the soil thmito bring 1t back
when once il is impoverished.

CarbOlic Acid as a Disinfectant

A correspondent writes to the Phil
adelphia Ledger that the use of carbolic
acid as disinfcctant and curative
agent in smallpox and other contayi-
GUS diseases should be universally
known. DIR. Burgess, of San Francisco.
says, in the Boston Journal of Chem
ast'y, ''In the late fearful epidemic Of
smallpox l have tested the disinfect-
ant and prophylactic power Of carbolic
acid in a way that leaves no doubt in
my mind CT its superior merit. Indeed.
during the latter part of the course Of
the epidemic. i trusted TO il exclusive
~. In thirty-siN instances of its cx-
elusive use. the disease spread in but
one, and that was in 4 family OF very
nlthy h3bits, where cleanliness. and
proper nursing were unattainable.
Carbolic acid in a fluid form is a
cheap article. To disinfcct an apart
mcnt two or three teaspoonfuIs may be
put in a small bucket of water. and
scattered about with a whisk broom.
Or the same, or even a smaller guam
fity, may be placed in dish and mixed
with sand. The evaporation from this
will disinfect the air. If the air should
become too strongly charged, the evap-
Grafton may be checked by covering
the dish more or less. as required.
This atmosphere, containing carbolic
acid, is healthy, and soon becomes
quite agreeable, especially when asso-
eiated with its power rs 4 destroyer of
infection.
The bed clothes. blankets. etc. and
clothes worn by persons having the
disease, or coming in contact with
such, may be washed with soap now
manufactured containing carbolic acid.
Or common soap may be used, with
two or three tcaspoonfuls of carboIic
acid added to the suds. Thus NAV
complete disinfection be produced in
bed clothes or body clothes Of patients
subjected 10 smallpox or any other
infectious disease.

HON. j. 7. HARRIS has introduced a
bill providing for a board Of claims to re-
ceive, examine, and consider the justice
and validity Of claims for compensation for
property destroyed by the order Of the
Government Of the United States or any
officer under it. We approve this bill and
hope it will pass promptly. There are
come distressing cases Of hardship which it
would relieve in our own knowledge. Con-
spicuous among them are the noble loyal
lists Of Loudoun county and the Valley of
Virginia. whose barns and stacks were
burned by General sheridan and others to
make the country untenabla for the enemy.
If any claims are paid these should be
among the very first. They should have
been paid years ago.

Rev. Bishop Haven, of the Methodist
Episcopal Church. arrived in this CITY THU,
morning, and is the guest of Rev. Mr..
Manly. The Bishop is widely known as
the popular editor of Zion's Herald, which
position he held for a number of wears.
He has been lifelong friend of the color
ed people, and done more perhaps than any
other man to educate public sentiment in
favor Of tho intellectual and moral eleva-
ton Of that race.
AT the session of the General Conference
OF the M. u. Church, held in Brooklyn last
May, Mr.. Haven was elected to the highest
office in the gift of said church-that of

SENSIBLE INDIANA.--A bill is now
before the Indiana Legislature which pro-
vldes that when person is declared not
guilty of any crime upon the ground of
insanity, the jury shall SO specify, and the
judge shall sentence him or her to a luna
tic asylum for term Of years proportionate
to the crime committed. The" temporary
insanity" plea has robbed the gallows and
penitentiaries Of SO many legitimate objects
of punishment, and turned so many dam
gerous persons back upon the community.
that thinking people everywhere are begin
ming to look out for some means of protec-
ton. In certain localities vagabond who
wishes to murder his family or neighbor
has only to drink himself into proper con-
dition, commit the deed, and then resort to
the temporary insanity" plea to keep
his neck from the moose. The Indiana
people are to be commended for their good
sense.

ORDINANCE VIoLATToNs.-A citizen
was tined So by the Police Judge, this
morning, for turning on the city gas in his
residence. We wish to state that citizen
has no right, under any circumstances, to
turn on or of either gas or water, and we
mention this case solely for the purpose of
admonishing Others Of the penalty Of such
act.
A merchant was fined 81 for obstructing
the street with lumber. The law requires
that goods deposited from boats upon the
basin bank, shall be removed within a GER
tain specified time. If this fact were borne
IN mind much annoyance and some ex-
pense might be avoided by our business
men.
