The following is an extract from de-
scripiion of Vineland, published in the
New York Tribune, by the well known
Agricuiturist, Scion Robinson.
All the farmers were of the swell Il
do sort, and some of them, who have
turned their attention to fruits and mar
ket gardening, have grown rich. The
soil is loan, varying from sandy to clay
ey, and surface gently undulaLing, inter
sected with small streams and occasional
wet meadows, in which deposits of pea
or muck are stored, sufficient to ferliliz'
the whole upland surface, after IL ha,
been exhausted of it's natural fertility.
IL IS certainly one of the most exten
sive tracts, in an almost level position
and suitable condition for pleasant farm
ing. that we know OF this side of til,
Western prairies. We found some of th'
oldest farms apparently just as proftably
productive as when first cleared Of fores
nifty or hundred years ago.
The geologist would soon discover th'
cause Of this continued fertility. Thu
whole country is q marine deposit, ane
all through the soil we found evidences
OF calcareous substsuces. generally in the
form of ind1rated calcareaus mari, snow.
ing many distinct forms OF aneisat shells
of the tertiary formation; aud this marty
substance is scattered all through the soil
IN very comninnted form. and Ia ths
exact condition most easily assitailateo
by such plants as Lhe farmer desires %
cultivate. [juLvI ssu
