Every act is new word in the cx-

The Cotton Rcfundins Tax.

A despatch from Washington states
that the friends of the cotton tax re-
funding scheme arc making a power.
fhl and what they think will prove
successful muacmcnt in iurtherance
of their object. y circular acoompa-
MED by the argument OF Judge d. II.
Curtis and AfcssfS: Hughes and
Sbarkey and Ierschcl Y. johnson, as
memorial and resolutions of nearly
all the Southern States and cities, has
been signed by all the members from
the cotton States present. This cir
cular which with the accompanying
papers will be laid on the. desk Of
every member, Is declaration that
they Intend to press the passage of an
act at this session to refund the tax
collected by the general government
after theclose of the lac war.
They set forth that IN their belief
the law imposing the cotton tax vas
unconstitutional that it Was unjust
and oppressive In its operations that
1T fell essentially upon producers, and
was passed when their States were
wholly unrcprcsented, under the mis-.
taken idea that it would fall upon
consumers. They ask Of Congress a
fair examination of the arguments
submitted, which they claim dcmon~
strate the correctness Of their posi-
tfons and the reasonablcncss Of their
demand.
1t is stated that this paper is signed
unanimously by all the members of
the House of Representatives now
present from the cotton States, irre-
srective of politics or color and IT,
is expected it will have a powerful
effect and give dignity and force to
the movement.

Instead of standing in fear of a
generous consumption Of ripe fruit,
one should regard it as decidedly con.
ductivc to health. There arc so many
erroneous notiuns entertained Of the
bad effect of fruit that it is quite
time oounterac,ing impress
sion should be promulgated, hlv-
ing it's foundation in common sense,
and based on tic common observation
of the intelligent. No one ever lived
longer, or freer from the attacks Of
disease, by discarding the delicious
fruits of our country. On the con-
trary, they are very essential to the
preservation of health, and a:e there.
fore given to us at the time when the
body, operated upon by deteriorating
causes not always comprchcudcd, re-.
quircs their grateful, renovating in
fucncos. Unripe fruit may cause i'll.
ness, but fresh ripe fruit is always
hcalthful. - Good Heuih.

lost child found "About ten years
ago white boy by the name Of Henry
Pnrdie Jane, then only about s
years old, mystcriously disappeared
from this city, it being the general
impression at the time that re was
stolen by u circus company. Nothing
more was heard from tho little fellow
or his whereabouts, and his relatives
mourncd him as lost to them forever,
when few weeks since, letter was
received from him by Postmaster
Brink, written in Michigan, in which
he gave detailed description of his
rcoolle ctions in regard to his family.
Col. Brink went to see Mr.. John Tur-
ncr, the grandfather of the boy, who
is an employee at the Gas Works in
this city, and tho result will be tho
speedy return of the boy to his friends.

Helps 10 Enrich the Soil Without Mn.
nurc.

~ student once ked great artist
by what wonderful PROFESS he mixod
his colors 7"
81 mix them with my brains, sir,'
was the reply.
This suggests to It's that the (,tyme,
may mic his soils with bis brains, to
! very great advantage. The firet paint
we would urge is that every farmer
accumulate and use ou his soil all the
manure he can, and when this is done
to considor the suggestion made be-
low to increase their fertility ir some
other way. Aud first, the influence
of mechanical means:
There arc often remarkable natu-
rnl laws in husbandry, which some
times border upon the marvellous.
"Thc spade, which breuks, turns, AMI
mixes the soil, makes field much
more fruitful than the plough, which
breaks, turns and displaccs the earth,
without mixing it. The effect of both
is increased by the harrow and the
roller, SO that, in the very same places
where crop has grown during the
preceding year, a fresh crop will Md
nutriment and this proves that the
earth was not exhausted"
Making soil fine and mixing it by
the usc Of Implements, may be COM
pared to the chewing of food by our
animals they add no uutritive quail.
tics to it by so doing and nothing
can TIC more certain, than that the HE.
chanical operations Of agriculs urc do
not add to the store Of rutri;ivc sub
stances in a field, but that they act
bcneficially by preparing the existing
nutriment for the support of the fu
turc crop.
Baron Licbig states that "nitrate
of soda, (Salt-petrc) salts of ammonia,
humus (decayed vegetable matter If
any kind) and lime, besides the action
peculiar to their elements, perform
also kind of digestive function" in
tho soil, comparable to that Of the
stomach in animals.
These substances act bcncGcially
upon those soils only in which there
is defect not In the quantity, be it
observed, but in the form aud condi.
tion of the nutritivc element aud
they may be permanently replaced in
their action by an exceedingly fine
pulverization Ut the soil.
Our best course then consists in OBJ.
serving the means which must be an.
piled to make the nutritive elemen' $
in our fields effective. We must take
the greatest care that tho rhy steal
condition Of the earth be such as to
permit the smallest roots to reach
those places where nutlimcnt may be
found.
When we have done this, we shall
lind TINT comparatively poor, but
well.til!cd soil, may yield better har-
vests than some which are called rich
ones. That is, land containing more
Ut the elcmenta of fertility, but which
arc not difuSed through its mn.ses.-
