Potash AS A FERTIL1ZER.-Pot-
ash forms one of the most essen
tial constituents 0. ertile soil, ana
one Of the most important Of all
the fertilizing agents within reach
Of the agriculturalist. In many
plants itconstitutes more than one
half Of their ash, and 10 most, at
least one-third. In neutra!izing
acids in the soil and in the liberia
tion Of ammonia, it acts in the
same manner as lime; but when
it is desired to simply effect these
last mentioned objects the latter
should be used, as being cheaper;
and potash generally available in
the form ashes, should be applied
as manure, using the word in It's
strictest sense to indicate q sub
stance that contributes directly
to the building up Of the structure
ofplants. But considerable care
should be exercised in the use Of
ashes, and they should never, as
is the practice Of some in manur-
ing corn in the hill, be mixed
with guano or the refuse Of the
hen-roost, inasmuch as the first
rain that dissolves them will cause
the potash to displace the am
monia in the same manner that
lime displaces it from barn-yard
and similar manureS, we have just
mentioned.

The Lesson Of the Last Years
Drought.

The following extract is from q
report by ". ". Daniels, professor
of agriculture in the University of
Wisconsin, which we find in the
JVestern Farmer:
"While there is no means of
preventing the recurrence ofthese
extremes Of the climate, and per-
haps no means Of modifying their
effects that will be universal in It's
application, there is a remedy, gen
erai in its nature, which is within
the reach of all farmers. 1t is the
adoption Of a better system Of
culture, better and deeper cpltiva-
ting, and better manuring.
The stratum Of soil needs 10 be
deepened 10 be more thoroughly
pulverized. and to be made richer.
Any means that may be adopted
that will accomplish these ends
will be ofvalue as a remedy against
drought.
There is another means of pre-
venting the evil effects Of both
droughts and foods upon all clay
lands or upon those having q clay
subsoil, and which at the same
time increases the productiveneSs
Of the soil so as to pay we'll for
its adoption It is undertaking.
The effect Of understanding is to
pulverize the soil by natural means
to nearly of quite the depth Of the
drains and by this pulverizat:on
the soil is enabled successfully to
withstand droughts so severe as to
ruin crops upon similar lands IN.
drained, while the drains beneath
the surface form a ready means Of
escape for the surplus water Of
wet seasons. In the adoption ola
thorough system Of under-drain-
ing upon all heavy soil will be
found the more effectual remedy,
and the one most general in its
application against such extremes
as those Of the past three seasons.

History repeats itself in the war now

propriate to the case Of the ether. Com
menced in the late Republican nom!na-
ting Convention-in which the forty or
more boilers parted from the Ring-this
dirty and d;sgraccfal, beast-likc wrangle
is renewed on every possible occasion,
until some Of the strongest admirers and
up-holders of this free government of
scal!awag incendiar!es, ring thieves, and
ignorant black lawmakers, stand aghast
and cry enough, the farce has been con-
tinued too long. 7, is we'll said, that no
better campaign documents could be sent
out over the length Of the land than the
proceedings Of the late ConVention IN
Columbia, and the subsequent meeting
in Charleston, and it IS to be hoped that
they will be 50 prepared ard scattered
far and wide. Our State Democratic
Executive Committee might find some
thing for their hands to do in this dircc-
ton. And then we are to have contiD-
ration Of this dirty dog-6ght piled up
till the end Of the canvass, unless as
some of the virtuous boilers say, (who
see so much Of late 20 cry out against in
the character of Ring-nastcr Moses.)
they find the Democrats making nom!-

swallow the abomiDabie, ugly, offensive
