From th at. Y. Evenlnf Fot. COL BENTON'S HISTORY. Yhe Character of Qrn- Jackson. Co!. Benton wu known throughout the whole of Gen . Jackson's administration, as one of his most xealous personal and political friends. And in his " History" he gives the following sketch of hi character. We do not of course, agree with him la all that his friendship impslahim to say of Gen. Jackson; but he does write much that U truo of his -Benevolence and warm-heartedness; and the whole sketch will be read with iterst even by those who differ most widely from its author. The first tinu that I siw Gen. Jackoa was at Nashville, Tennessee, 179 J he was on the Bench, a judge of the then Buperior Court and I a youth of saventeen, back in the crowd. He was then remarkable man, and hd hie ascendant over alt who approached him, not the effect of hi high judicial station, nor of the senatorial rank which he had held and resigned, nor of military exploits, for he had not then been ti war, but the effect of ' personal qualities cordial and graceful manners, hospitable temper, elevation of mint, undaunted spirit, generosity, and perfect integrity. In charging the jury in the impending case, he committed a slight solecism in tanguage.which grated on my ear,and loJged on my memory, without derogating in the least from the respect which he inspired.and withoutawakening the slightest suspicion that I was ever to be engaged in smoothing his diction. Tne first time 1 apoka with him was some few years after, at a (then) frontier town ia Tennessee, when he was returning from a southern visit, which brought

him through the towns and camps of some of the InJian tribes. In pulling oflfhis over coat I perceived on the white lining of the turning-down sleeve, a dark speck, which had life and motion. I brushed it off," and put the heel of my hoe upon it little thinking that I was ever to brush awav from him game of a very different kind. He smiled; and we begin a conversation, in which he very quickly revealed a leading trait of his character that of encouraging young taenia their laudable pursuits. Getting my name and parentage, and learning lay (mentioned profession, he manifested a regard for me, said he had received hospitality at my father' house In North Carolina, gave me kind invitations to visit him, and expressed a bolief that I would do well at the bar generous words, which had the effect of promoting what they promised. Soon after, he had a further opportunity to shjw his generonj feelings. I was employed in erimiaal case or great mignitud", where the oldest tad lolest counsel a?pcorca iiywoou, urunuy, tvimcaiaj unit it tviil nf iritlfh fZstn rtflf.tn I a -a a llv m4 4 tiw ) V I v mivi we wwvstwsa ien. attended through concern for the fate of a frieud. As junior counsel I bad to precede my elder and did my host; and, it being on the sldo of his feelings, he .found my effort to bo better thin it wu. He complimented me greatly, and from that time our intimacy began. I soon after became his aid, he being Major General In the Tennessee militia

children, or the weak and helpless, for

all whom hie feelings were those of protection and support. His hospitality was active a veil as cordial, embracing the worthy in every walk of life, and seeking out deserving object to receive it, no . matter how obscure. Of this I learned a characteristic instance in relation to the son of famous Daniel Boone. The young man had come to Nashville on his father's business, to be detained some weeks, and had hi lodgings at a small tavern towards the lower part of the town. General Jackson heard itsought him out found him, took him home to remain as long as hi business detained him in the country, saying, "Your father's dog should not stay at a tarern where I have a house." This was heart! and I hid it from the young man htmsclf.long after,when he was state senator of the General Assembly of Missouri, and as auch nominated me for the United States Senate at my first election in Id JO his name waa Benton Boone, and so named after my father. Abhört enco of debt, public and private, dislike of bank and love of hard money were ruling passions with Jackson, and ofthese he guve constant evidences in all the situations of life. Of private debts he contracted none of his own, and made any sacrifices to get out of those incurred for others. Of this he give a signal instance not Ion j before the war of 1812 seliinj tho improved part o' his estate, with the best buildings In the country jpon it, to pay a debt incurred in a mercantile adventure to assist a young relative, and going into a log house ia the forest part to begin a new home and (arm. - He was living in these rude tenements when he vanquished tho British at New Orleans; and, probably avKw of their conqueror's domicile would have astonished the British officers as much as their defeat had done. .He was attached to his friends, and to his country, and never believed in the first reports of the surrender of General Hull, and became sad and oppressed when forced to believe it. He never gave.up a friend in a doutfulcase, nr from policy, or calculation. He wn a firm believer in the goodness of superintending Providence, and in the eventual riht.j-i lfm nt, an 1 justice of the people. I have seen him at the most deserate part oi ins lortunes, and never saw . . . . m a m waver in the belief that all would come rif'nt in the cnl la the time of Cromwell he would have been a puritan. ' Tha chtractor of hi mind, was that of j.dgnv?nt, with a rapid and almost intuitive perception, followed by instant and djcisivj action. It wai that which made him a General and President for the tim-s In which he served. He had vigorous thoughts but not the faculty of Irring! ng them in I regular composition, cither writt;n Of epkan; and in papers n.uallv trava his manuscnot to an aid. a frieud, or a secretary, to be written over 4 m s often to the loss of vigor. But the thoughts were his own, vigorously expressed, and without effort; writing with a rspld pen, and never blotting or altering; but as Carlyle says of Cromwell, hitting the nail upon the head as he went. 1 have a great deal of hi writing now, . some on oublic affairs and coverinsr severat sheets o( piper, and no erasure or livs, Hii coneluaianfl wer mnlJ tn.l i ----- Immovable, when he was under the niTOn2 convietlon. though yielding on mnor points, to his friend.

tion were both Urge and various,) en ables me to join in the declaiation of the belief expressed by hi earliest friend and most intimate associate, the late Judge Overton, of Tennessee. , The Roman general won an immortality by one act of continence; what praise " is due to Jatkson, whoso whole life was continnentl I rcpoat it: if he had been born in the time of Cromwell, he would have been, a Puritan. Nothing could exceed his kindness and affection to Mrs. Jack son, always increasing ia proportion as his elevation and culminating fortunes drew cruel attacks upon her. I knew her well, and that a more exemplary woman in all the relations of life wife, friend, neighbor, relative, mistress of lazes naver lived, and never presented a more quiet, cheerful, and administrate managemeut of . her household. She had not education, but a beart.and a good one; and that was always loading her to do kind things In the kindest manner. She had the General's own warm hoart. frank manners, and hospitable temper, and no two , persons could have been better suited to each other, lived more happily together, or mado a house more attractive to visitors. She had the facultya rare one of retaining names and titles in a throng of visitors, addressing each one appropriately, and dispensing hospitality to all with a cordiality which enhanced its value. . No bashful youth, or plain old man, whose modesty sat them down at the lower end of the table, could escape her cordial attention, any more than the titled gentlemen on her right and 'left Young persons were her delight, and she always had her house filled with them clever young women and clever young menall calling her, affectionately, "Aunt Rachel." I was yonng, then, and was one of that number. I owe it to early recollection!, and to cherished convictions in this last notice of the Hermitage to bear this faithful testimony to the memory of its first and long mistress the loved and honored wife of a great man. Her greatest eulogy is in the af

fection which he bore her living, and in the sorrow with which he mourned her dead. She died at the moment of the General's first election to the Presidency, and every one that had a just petition to present, or charitable request to make, lost, in her death, the surest channel to the car and to the heart of the President. His regard for her survived, and lived in the persons of her nearest relatives. A nephew of her wu his adopted son and heir, taking his own name, and now the respectable master of the Hermitage. Another nephew, Andrew Jackson Danehon, Esq., was his private secretary when President. The presidential mansion was presided over during his term by her niece, tho most amiable Mrs. Donelson, and all his conduct bespoke aflectionato and lasting remembrance of cne he had held so dear.

After taking his degree, he made a journey into the state of New York, spending some time In' the city, where he became attached to a theatrical company, not intending to go upon the stage, but, having the design of writing dramatical works, he wished to gather knowledge upon such matters which ho might turn to some account. We extract what follows from the biography: After seeing what he wished of New York, he returned to Sheffield for his horse, intending to pursue his journey westward. Hi uncle Rev. Ephraim VI I.I a vuuson was assent, and a very pious young man occupied his place. His conversation was characterized by a godly sincerity, a solemn but ccntle earnest ness, which addressed itself to the heart. and Judson went awsy deeply impressed. The next night he stopped at a eountry inn. The landlord mentioned, as he lightod him to his room, that he had been tail. obliged to place nun next door to a young man who was exceedingly ill, probably in a dying state; but he hoped that it would occasion him no uneasiness. Judson assured him that, beyond pity for . aa m a . trie poor sick mm, lie should have no feeling whatever, and that now, having heard of the circumstance, his pity would not of courso be increased by tho near ness of the object. Hut it was, never thclcss, & very restless night.

Agricaltaral,

r all, piowirvo. Having some twenty odd acre we intend planting to corn next spring the question comes uo in a practical way. What will the soil gain In the available food of plant by plowing it this fall! On light sandy or gravi lly soils we doubt the propriety of plowing several months before the seed is committed to the earth, became1 we tetr that the elements of both organic and inorganic matter rendered soluble by tillage, may be washed out of the open ground, and the land impoverished rather than enriched by fall plowing. We hare no doubt of the fsct that tillage often operates rreatlv tothn injury of tho soil, sometime by dUeolv. iojf the food of plants prematurely, so that a oart Is lost by the washing of the plowed earth, long be fore it ia planted or sown, and other time the fine clay and aandrun together and become hard be fore pprinj, eo that the labor of fall plow-' log is lost. Thjse remarks aro. made to show that there are two sides to the question of autumn plowing for seeding in tho spring. (Soils which are either very open, or very compact from an excess of fine clay, gain little by atirringthem long iu advance of planting. Frost, however, may and often does, operate to Improve clay land by rendering, if, mord triable, if plowed in the fall or winter. This is particularly true of clayey loains, soils that do not run together like potter's clay.

We are well aware of the recent researches of Prof. Wir and others, showing the retentive power of soils in preventing the loss of manures, applied to laud in estate of solution; we are nol, however, satisfied that the expectations in that matter are to be fujly realized bv farmere. Mr. Mxcw ssye that his liquid manure, after passing through several feet of soil, still contains both organic and inorganic matter, and ws know that In all good land, rain-water that come out in springs and wells is not pure, but abounds in both vegetable and mlueral salts dissolved out of the ground. Tillage increases the solubility and solution ol these substances, which are the food of plants; and hence tillage at tho time of planting and alterwards augments the focding and growth of crops. Having decided to plow a Held in the fall, we should not hesitate to break u? the subsoil a little deeper than it was ever before exposed to the light, heat, frost, and atmospheric gaases above ground. These are powerlul chemical agencies, aud admirably adapted to deepen and improve soil. If one can turn under a good coat bf grass, weeds, modd or manure, so much the better for the Und. Break tho ground fine that Is, cut narrow furrows, as well as deep ones, that tlie tillage may be perfect. Qenesee Farmer. - He Roost Ouaso.
