or clay Many Of the most fertile lands of the globe
have been desolated in this way.
Most of the young oaks about the town site will
probably die in few years from the attacks of
borers" and the planting of better kinds Of trees,
IL c. those which will live longer and grow more
rapidly should begin at once The poplar (Liaiodsn-
d,0n huhpyera) would probably do well here as
shade tree for the streets But cannot enter upon
the question of the kinds of trees to plant. Many
trees can be left standing grass lands, but grain
and vegetables cannot be grown under them. But
all land not available for cultivation should be pre-
served as forest and the trees used only with the
greatest economy, while new ones should every
where be planted and carefully protected.
The other interest embraces both the cultivation
Of the soil and the preservation of the health of the
inhabitants. 1t is the matter of the disposition to
be made of all decomposing and waste organic sub
stances, nightsoil, Stops of all kinds, &c. The soil
cannot be kept up properly without the use of all
these as ferzing materials, and it will soon be i'm
possible to maintain health where these substances
neglected, where slops thrown on the ground
around dwellings, or where privies are managed as
they usually in this part of the country. Dry
earth should be used everywhere, and all waste and
decomposing organic substances should be removed
daily to the garden or farm. OBSERVER.

The Rugbeian. (Rugby, Morgan Co., Tenn.) 1881-1882, 1881-03-01

THERE are two great interests which, along with
others, require serious and intelligent attention in
any new settlement in the tmbered portion of the
United States One is the matter of tree-preserva-
ton and tree-planting. No land which is too steep
or rough for profitable cultivation should be cleared
at all. The steep, narrow ravines, and all rocky
land, the banks Of streams and all such situations
should as far possible be devoted to treegrowng
and should be left in their native wdness-as to
the surface of the ground. Such places should never
be burned over.
If the trees on the ravines are cut off and the
ground pastured or burned over, the springs and
small streams in these ravines will dry up, and when
the network of roots, which now keeps the banks
in place, dies and rots the banks will slip down and
there will always be mere barren surface of sand

The Cumberland table-land, on which, near the
centre, the town of Rugby stands, is uniform block
of coal-measures, everything the silcious and lime
stone beds of the Lower Carboniferous. These are
nowhere exposed on the tableland, though probably
everywhere underlying it. Some of the valleys, as
that of the Sequatchee to the south and the Big South
Fork of the Cumberland River to the north, cut for
greater less portions of their length into the under
lying limestones. The nearest limestones to Rugby
"a matter of considerable importance both from
building and agricultural point of view-are prob
ably the outcrops of the mountain limestone on the
western face of the tableand, seventeen eighteen
miles west of Rugby, while the same radius would
strike the topmost reaches of the same formation
posed in the floor of the Big South Fork Valley.
The lime hitherto used at Rugby has come from the
Tennessee Valley at Emory Gap, some forty miles
down the Cincinnati Southern Railroad.
Small bodies of limestone, apparently of stalagmitc
origin, occur here and there in the sandstone bluffs
around Rugby and there one or two semi-cal-
careous bands in the lower coal.measures which
are of interest as possible Of hydraulic &C.
ments. and mortars and of lime for fertzing.
Above the mestones lie series of red, purple
and green mars, thirty to forty feet in thickness,
which in Kentucky are reported as containing an
amount of potash, phosphoric acid and lime, which
gives them value as fertilizers The outcrops of these
marls follow Immediately over the limestone, show

in the Big South Fork and its branches about the
Kentucky state line and few miles to the south

Over these transition beds come the lower coal
measures, from $50 to 200 feet in thickness They
consist of thinbedded sandsones at the bottom and
shaes with rock bands towards the top. They carry,
near the middle, one workable seam of coal, which,
at Jamestown, has thickness of three to four feet
appears to lie regularly and is Of excellent quality.
The lower measures on the Big South Fork appear
to hold another seam, which is reported also work

their higher successors, lies the conglomerate, a

PRESIDENT OF THE SENATE.

President Arthur has called the
Senate to meet in executive session
on October 10th. 1t is generally
supposed that the Democrats will
elect Thomas +. Bayard president OF
that body without opposition. In
doing 80 they will honor the fore
most statesman in. country. We be
lieye that Mr.. Bayard has more adj
mirers among both Democrats and
Republicans than any other man IN
the nation. He would have been
nominated by the Democrats for the
Presidency years ago, only for OPP
position from expediency politicians
who feared that he was too good a
Democrat to be elected. Had Mr..
Arthur retired from his seat during
the last session of the Senate to per-
nit the election Of a president pro
tenn. Mr.. Bayard would have been
chosen to that position. then; but
Mr.. Arthur failed to perform this
customary courtesy, and there
was no president pro tenn elected.
1t is generally supposed that Mr..
Arthur prevented Bayard's election
at that time because he fBayard)
supported Mr.. Garfield, and favored
Roberston's confirmation Now that
there is to be a permanent president
elected, the Democrats are III duty
bound to again choose, Mr.. Bayard.
If the Democrats of the country
should follow up this wise action Of
their representative III the Senate,
by nominating Senator Bayard for
the Presidency in 1884, he would
leave stalwarts and half-breeds far
behind in the race for that office.
And we feel assured that an admins
tration with him for its head would
so endear itself to the hearts of the
people that the success Of democ-
racy would be Of permanent du-
ration

that extraordinary body except the
final motion to adjourn. For this
he deserves credit considering the
bad influence surrounding him. His
record on questions interesting us
locally as city, district, OF
county, is fully up to the average.
With his experience and prominence
in the part of the majority, he ought
to be able to explain to the appor-
tionment committee that the cult
walton of hoop-pools and the mining
of ginseg, although well calculated to
increase the desire for remunerative
political preferment, justice forbids
their having two votes to our one.
If the Democratic party in coun-
Gil, decide to make the usual an
nual sacrifice, we, of course will
abide its decision.
