Deep TiIling and Understanding.

Intelligent and observing tiIIcrs Of the
try where the drouth has prevailed to
any considerable extent during the past
season, have been olrkingIy impressed
with the surprising advantage to the
growing crops arising from thorough
drainage Of heavy soils in connection
with deep tIIagc and abundant icrtilza-
tion Of the sccd-bcd. When the water
line ola heavy soil that is disposed to be
wet, is sunk by means Of Il system of
thorough undertaking, say thirty or
more inches beneath the surface Of the
soil. if the sccd-bcd bc broken up deep,
the finely comminutcd soil will retain II
much larger quantity of moisture in
dry and hot weather than if there were
no undcr-drains. \, the soil is decpened
| by understanding and deep blowing, the
capacity to absorb moisture from the at
mosphcrc is greatly augmented. Hence,
/ in Il dry season. if the Sccd-bcd he bro

spread farther in every direction through
the soil and a- the mellow earth Will
absorb much larger quantity OF moist,
urc than if the entire strata were one solid
mass, every growing plant is, in a great
measure fortified against the trying in

Gus instances, have been the means OF
saving large crops from utter ruin by

i, now known to have been prccipitatcd,

mcnts of gold from San Francisco from

for the first six monthsof 1874 footed up
42,3ll ,l00; for the same period in 1873,
it reached the startling sum of SIS,23I-
400. No such amount Of gold had ever
been shipped from that city in the same
period. In fact it was more than the
market could bear. Even during the
London panic in 1866, no such volume
of coin disappeared. Hence the incon-

TIM consumption of Brazil coffee IN
this country Is enormous. During the
.eo.on of 1874 it wa, IO5,7jl tons, or an
average Of S.Gi6 tons per month. lhls
was the largest consumption ot Brazil
coffee in the United States that was ever
known. with the exception of that oi 1870,
when lO2 .jO2 tons were consumed. lhe
coffee trade is now on a firm
footing, and the consumption stead
lily increasing, especially in thi' conn-
try. where it is about onc-l0urth
of that of the entire world. II is worthy
of note that the worlds consumption OF
coffee is nearly, if not fully, 20, ,oOO
tons, or 93j, 100000 pounds! The people
of the United States consume more coffee
than any other people on the globe. The
main source Of coffee supply is Brazil,
but Java. Ceylon, and the West Indies
furnishes q considerable quantity. The
yearly value Of the coffee crop is csti-
mated, by an Amsterdam authority, at

From the discussions Of the Associa-
ton of the Boards Of Trade in England,
we gather the pregnant fact, That not
withstanding the balance Of trade with
the world at large is in favor Of Eng
land, it yet frequently happens that gold
is exported to meet balances against her
at particular periods. Another fact is
also demonstrated, and that is, that gold
is Il commodity which goes where it is
needed, and where it will bring the best
price.

TUE state railroad tax as,cs,0rs OF
Tennessee have just completed their Ia-
bors at Nashville, under the law, just
enacted, which makes railroads liable to
tax for both state and county purposes.
The railroads were all allowed to choose
between being taxed per cent. ON
heir gross earnings or 10 cents on the
500 ON the assessed value of their prop
crly lying in the state. Nine embraced
the former proposition, including The
Memphis and Charleston while fourteen
refused the Il per cent. alternative
some denying the right of the state to
tax their roads. 1t is estimated that the
taxes derived from all lines of railroad
in Tennessee will aggregate 100000.
