AGRICULTURAL DEPARTMENT. RICH THOUGH POOR. No rood of land in all the esr'h. No ship upon the sea. Nor treasures rare, nor gems, nor gold, Do any keep for me; A’ yesterday I wrought for bread So must I toil to-day; Yet some are not so rich as I, Nor T so poor as they. On yonder t'ee the sun light falls. The robin’s on the bough, Still I can hear a merrier note Than he is warbling now; He's but an Arab of the sky, And never lingers long; But that o'erruss the living year With music and with song. Come gather round tne little ones, And as I sit me down, With shouts of laughter on me place A mimic regal crown; Sav, childless King, would I accept Your armies and domain, Or e’en your crown; aud never feel These tiny hands again? 7 here’s more honor in their touch, And blessing unto me, Than kingdom unto kingdom joined, Or navies on the seaSee greater gifts to me are brought Than Sheba's Queen did bring To him who, at Jerusalem, Was born to be a king. Look at my crown.and then at yours; Look in my heart and thine: How do our jewels now compare— The earthly and divine? Hold up your diamonds to the light. Emerald and amethyst; Thev’re nothing to those love lit eyes, These lips so often kissed.' Oh.’ noblest Roman of them all, That mother good and wise, Who pointed to her little ones. The jewels of her eyes. Four sparkle in my own to-day, Two deeka sinless brow; How grow my riches at the thought Os those la glory r.ow! And yet no rood of all the earth. No ships upon the sea, Nortreas res rare, nor gold, nor gems, Are safely kept for me; Yet I am rich—myself a King! And here is my domain:

'ri ch only God shall take away T.> s-.veme back again! When and How to apply Manar". Ii we i-r a--uit nature —taking her processes as our guide—we shall see her vegetable fertilizers applied in the fall, and there can be no better evidence that thia is a most favorable time for manuring the 1 soil. Circumstances, it is true, may rendcr a 1 is able to varry from thi« time, and it is one of the objects of the farmers, study to be able to modify natural laws, and to cl. o-e, in some cases, convenience as his guide. The more perfectly, however, he understands nature, the better he can command her, but generally the closer will be bis obedience io her teachings. Nature makes no mistake—she never practices fake economy—all progress is by due obedience to her laws. The application of manure in autumn pre-suppose that it has become partially decomposed during the summer, and that it will become well rotted by the following spring, when needed by plants upon the resumption or commencement of their growth. It is thus ready for their use, and this is one materia! advantage of applying manure in autumn. Another tidvantage is that this decomposition has reduced its bulk without deteriorating its value (ifproperly carried on,) rendering its transportation less expensive, while at the same time the team and the roads are in a better condition for the work. The summer season, too, has afforded time for composing the stores of the barn-yard with muck and other vegetable matter, thus increasing largely the amount and value of both classes of material—an important object to the farmer. Nature, if asked the question, ‘how shall we apply manure?* answers ‘on the

surface.’ She has no operation analag»us to plowing—and while we may think we have improved upon her methods—as we undoubtedly have in this and other respects —we s’ill may learn wisdom from her example. In applying manure to sivard land in the fall, let it be spread tipoa the surface —the growing grass will keep it in place, will keep it moist, and will gradually work its decomposioa.— When we would plow in the spring, it is in the right state and position for our use —for the use of the succeeding crop—and practice proves this to be one of the best methods of manuring sward for any crop. In appiving manure on stubble land, it would be well to cover it imraeuiairiy with the gang-plow or cultivator, incorporating it as thmongldy as may be with the surface soil. In spring, before . >v> ., r |^ t t- t . 'tn 'be plowed to a pro |w=r ri-p<l- for c: 7 .-'Pph _’, and the

result has been, in the case in which trial . has been made, a better crop than from manuring in the spring in the usual manner. Practical farmers are studying more closely than heretofore the nature of soils and plants, and the demands made upon the former by the latter, and from the operations of nature herself, the most economical method of supplying these demands freely, fully, and so as to derive profit from the operation. The ‘manure question’ is one of great interest, and one freely discussed, and we hope to see new light thtown upon it from this source.— Surely the practical man has the means, if any one has, of developing natural laws and of testing the principles which lie at the root of the labors in which he is constantly employed, and upon which he depends (and not vainly) tor a livelihood. It depends upon himself whether he shall be a mere hireling in the great laboratory —knowing and caring nothing for the operations he aids in conducting—or whether he be a skillful analyst, understanding. combining and directing—learning and putting to use the important principles evolved. It shall be our aim to offer all aid in our power, as a journalist for the farmer, to the fuiberance of the work. — Country Gentleman. Farm Talk. If proof of hard times in North-west Missourri were wanting, it might be found in the following statement of acts, though numerous others could be cited: Some two years ago a farmer friend of ours purchased, for agricultural purposes, between three and four hundred acres of land, three miles from St. Joseph, ala cost of forty-five hundred dollars. Recently he sold 43 acres of it at fifty dollars per acre, and with’n the past week has been offered the same price per , acre for the balance of the tract; making ’ over seventeen thousand dollars as the picceeds of his 64,500 investment in 1856. Another friend, originally from Garrad County, Kentucky in 1857, paid 650 per acre for a farm of the hun-

dred and thirty acres, lying three miles north-east of St. Joseph. Although he was known to be a man of sagacity, many persons ridiculed him for paying what they termed an exorbitant price for Missouri land. The seqnal will show how greatly his sagacity and the true value of ■his land were underrated. During the past season our friend c included to test the quality of Lis land in the way of producing vegetables. Upon jof an acre be raised cabbage enough lor family use and sold between 830 and 840 worth besides. His yield of potatoes was likewise abundant, and for these he received 40 cts. per bushel, at home. Fifty acres of his land he planted in corn, which averages, by measurement, twenty barrels to the acre. This, at 50 cents a bushel, which it is paying him, realizes 850 an acre for his land, which as before stated was its original cost. It is a matter of astonishment to us that more farmers in the older States, when these results are made known to them reliably, do not leave for the West.■ Missouri has thousands and thousands of acres of most fertile land yet uncultivated. I Her soil produces from 100 to 300 pounds of hemp more per acre than the best Kentucky lands, and is as well adapted io wheat, rye, oats, barley, corn and the grasses, as any land in the United States. We speak, not from rumor, nor from partiality, but from the actual and extensive observion of a number of years. Manuring Young Fruit Trebs —lt is an excellent practice to top-dress the ground r-bout young fruit trees with yard manure, early in winter, ft protects the roots from cold, and the soluble portions . soaking into the earth by each successive

rain or melting snow, fertilize them with spaded manure. Spaded in, in the spring all the remaining advantages are secured. The manure should not be placed in a little heap at the loot of the stem, as many do, but should be spread broadcast to a distance on every side, equal to the height of the tree, as the roots exteod much further than is commonly supposed. — Country Gentleman. We understand that Hon. Henry L. Ellsworth, a prominent citizen of this State for many years, died in Ccnnecticut a few days ago. Mr. Ellsworth was formerly Commissioner of Patents, and is probably the richest man in Indiana—or, at any rate, the largest landholder.— Mr. Ellsworth removed to Connecticut recently. Moderation is the silken string running thri'iiid, tin pearl chain of all virtue. “ s

The whole «ill make oetween 11,700 and 2.000 pages. It is believed that no i book has ever been published at so low a rate. Last year I advertised in the Daily Globs, for six months, and in about one hundred other newspapers in the United States, a reward of $215, to be paid to anv person who would produce a book published at so low a rate, and none was produced. The large number of copies subscribed for by Congress enables me to afford the Debates to subscribers so cheap. The Congressional Globe and Appendix pass i free through the mails of the Lnited States, as , will be seen by reading the following joint res- I olution by Congress the 6th of August, 1852: JOINT RESUTION providing for the distri- I tion of the Laws of Congress aud the Debates thereon: With a view to the cheap eirculation of the ; laws of Congress and the debates contributing | to Cue true interpretation thereoff, and to make . free the commuciation between the representa- I tive and constituent bodies— Be it resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America, in Congress assembled, That from and after the presen t session of Congress the Congressional Globe and Appendix, which contain the laws and the the debates thereon, shall pass free through the mails so lor gas the same shall be published by order of Congress: Provided, that nothing herein shall be construed to authorize ! the circulation of the Daily Globe free of postage I Approved August 6. 1852 TERMS.

THE SOUTHERN MONITOR. FOR 18-6 8-5 9 It is now certain that the fearful rsset b*. tween the North and South is near its terming, tion and must be decided one way or the other iu 1860.

Theentir* South, with Pennsylvania and New Jersey, can elect the President; and with a President’true to the Constitution and vindicating the validity of the decisions of the Supreme Court of the United States, there will be security for property of the Southern people, and a gatirantee of the equal rights and privileges of all the citizens.
