Interesting Lecture.-Colonel W. W.
Bowie of the Maryland Farmer, delivered a
very able AMI interesting lecture before the
students and faculty of the Maryland Agri-
cultural College, upon Agriculture, on Friday
evening last. lie took theoretical as well
as practical view of the question. He referred
TO the fact that we had not advanced rapidly
in Agriculture; YirgiI's Georges discussed
the very questions of high culture, drainage
and irrigation. The compost heap is not a
modern invention.
He did not believe 10 naming Agriculture a
"caling," but profession" After speak
ing of ''soil food, as necessary to all crops
he touched upon lime, and said II had been
considered pAnacea for all ills. lie did not
SO consider it, but thought that lime is some
times not only useless but injurious. lie ia
vored small applications. Plaster is very ben
eiicial in collecting valuable gases from the
air for plant food.
He referred TO the fact that statistics show
we are shipping more bone to foreign markets
than we are using at home. Seeing the neees-
city for a change in our system of agriculture
on account of change ia the labor question,
he approves Of the following plan for improv-
ing worn out lands Stimulate the land so as
TO produce green crops turn these under and
apply lime in light dressings. Then feed on
the land the product Of otter lands, or pur-
chase corn and hay for sheep and other stock.
This saves the transportation in both manure
and produce, aud sell only the mutton, beef,
butter, milk, &c.
We connot compete with the west in raising
corn, but can in the smaller articles. The
Englishman makes money from sheep, and
wise legislation is only needed in our country
to ensure success. The world must be clothed
as well as fed.
Col Bowie closed his very interesting lee
ture by reference to the science Of Botany,
claiming that il not only gave the agricul-
turist. knowledge Of his plant growth
enabling every farmer 10 be his own cul-
tivator, but it gave him the mastery Of this
floral world for his pleasure. Flowers are
our common inheritance, and they should
adorn our homes and cheer our hearts.
Col. Bowie was listened to with marked in
terest by all present

A G God Sugg estion There never APP
pears in our midst plague but what some sug-
gestive mind fnds remedy equally as quick
u exterminate as the pes,ilence is to annoy
The tramp has become the latest plague and
nuisance, expensive 10 the people all over the
country. This is clan of people who do not
choose TO work, but live at the expense Of the
| counties and States. The expense incurred 10y
this county in caring for these Migrants this
winter is astounding. We have not learned
the exact amount Of Indebtedness contracted
by keeping these fellows in Jail, but we do
know that it is a considerable amount mas
much as many AS twenty two in one night stop
ped over, getting supper and lodging and
| breakfast. To,;he questions, How shall these
men be deferred from vagrancy2 How can they
be punished, or rather how can this evil be
rooted out2 issnggesed in answer the "rclic
of barbarism, the whipping post The Balti-
more Gazette in an article on tho subject says,
England, the most civilized country, with
| Delaware and eeveral western States Missouri
among them, have restored the "relic' all with
good effect" Now we do not see why the press
of this State does not loudly demand the pas
sage of bill by the next legislature restoring
the "relic' in this State, for it would meet the
appreciation Of a majority Of the people. II
would rid US of this low class Of men W no care
nothing for themselves or any one else. Just
so they can beg morsel of bread 10 keep The
threads OF life together degradation is set al
naught We should not encourage vagransy
and let US have the ''relic."
