srticles of impeachment against Bclk-
nap, preferred by the House of Re
presentatives, and his trial before tho
Senate will soon commence. The
managers of the impeachment arc
seven in number, fvo Democrats and

In tho impeachmont trial OF Andrew

Democrats, discarding tho "Lex tails

Republicans two out Of the seven, but
wo fear shat they havo cast pearls be-
fore swine. The Southern Democrats
declined to allow any one oftheir num-
ber to act as manager, considering,
and, perhaps justly, that it was none
OF their funeral, and that tho North
Orn and Western men who were
"under fire'' for high crimes and
misdCmeanors in office should be in
veStigated by Northern and Western
Republicans; and knowing, further.

Aeid Phosphate.

~ Il
. If tbe farmers wish to have Q cheap
and powerful fertilizer, wo would,
from our knowledge of the chemical
ecnstitucnts, shy to them that the acid
phosphate, when manipulated and
thoroughly mixed with barn.yard ma.
nure, cotton seed, or in fact with any
animal or vegetable matter, forms q
superior fertilizer. The excess of
,splphuric aoid contained in the acid
phosphate rapidly ~decomposes either
barn>yard manure or cotton seed, and
at tho samo time this acid seizes and
retains in soluble but solid form all
the ammonia evolved by tho decom-
position. This ammonia, as is well
known, is the great food and stimu-
liant of oil kinds of crops. Hence, as
the acid phosphate is cheaper than
othor guanos, superior fertilizer is
in the roach of every farmor, and at
far less cost. 1t enables tho farmer
to utilize his cotton seed and barn
yard manures; and, furthermore, the
acid 1t contains so thoroughly pull
veriSos tho barn-yard manuros that
they are moro easily handled and ap-
plcd-oqually as easy to be distrib-
utcd as tho impalpablo commercial
fertilizer. BY this process every farm
or could make immense quntilics of n
very superior fertilizer, at compara>
lively small costs. The sulphate of
ammonia, which is formed in great
quantities from the decomposition of
barn-yard manures and cotton seed,
sulphuric acid being present, is n
powerful fertilizors, as is we'll known
by all chemist Ammonia is vola-
tile alkali; and, if there is no acid pre>
sont TO seize and combine with il. il
escapes as soon as it is generated from
tho decomposing animal and vegeta>
bic matter. BY mixing this acid phosu
phato with stable manure, tho escape
of The ammonia is entirely prevented
ii result to be secured by all possible
means.
