Important Facts for Farmers. None of our readers should fail carefully to ponder upon the following article, from the Commercial corrf spondent cf the Washington Union. It discusses matter of paramount interest to the people of Indiana. The prospect of the larve?t9 in the British ehvi for the coming year is that which must have a most material influence upon the business of the Union. The great change which hau been goingrori Ireland einre the cummencmenl of the potato rt in 1S15. in respect to the cultivation of the igland and the influence which free trade in corn is likely to have on the enable product of the English oi., ore important questions to the Amer can farmers. In respect to En.., ml, it is well known that the policy of her corn laws was avowedly to maintain high rents for land by creating, through tariff restrictions. & liijh price for it- products. As the population pressed upon the capacity of the soil to produce, the level of prices would naturally tend to a higher point a l-ng as the competition of foreign f.wxl wan restrained by legislativ enactments. The effect of this was to preps into cultivation, by a nvst expensive process, descriptions cf lands scarcely fitted for the production of f od, and to warrant farmers in a most expensive system of husbandry. The removal of all restriction upon foreign grain left no barrier between the fertile lands of other countries and the labor wrought soil of England, except that created by freights. These latter were again enhanced by the navigation laws, which have been repealed, and freights are reduced in favor of foreign corn. Thus when wheat was w.rth 90s., per quarter in England, freight was from New York to Liverpool 20s., making 70s. net. The grain is now 50s., and the freight 2s. 6d. The almost spontareous productions of other soils are now at nominal cost placed within reach of the English consumer. It results that the expensive cultivation rnustpe relinquished, and, as a consequence, the acreable product fills off immensely. In Ireland it is known that by far the larger number of farms were under 5 acres in extent, and the larger proportion of these were planted with potatoes, which served as the mnin dependence of the people for food. ' A few pigs and poultry comprised the whole farm stock. When the potato rot made its appearance in 1345, a spur was given to

the desire of the lare landholders to eject tne comers, and whole districts were depopulated by the ferocious cruelty that prompted that prompted the cots to be pulled down and the unhappy people driven forth to starve. Very many were compelled to consume their pigs and poultry, when these were not seized by rapacious landlords and tithe collectors. This process has changed, to a very great extent, the nature of the cultivation in Ireland. The small holdings that have been absorbed in the larger farms have, to a les extent, be-n planted with potatoes, and a less efficient modeof grain culture, it would seem, has been adopted. The census of Ireland in 1341 was taken under the direction of Copt. Larcom, of the engineers ; and that gentleman, by order of Lord Clarendon, has collected returns of the agricultural produce of Ireland fi.r the years 1S47 and 1S43. These returns, as compared with those of 1911, give the following number and extent -f farms: Number and extent of farms in Ireland. Year. 1 to I acres. 310.4JS 125,934 101,77 SIO 15 ere. 225,709 S53,30 S5i,251 15 to 30 acre. 79.342 1J0.999 14Ö.7J5 AI re 30 acres. 48,625 137,147 140,817 Tout.

Most of the occupants hnve become hired laborers on the larger farms; many in the workhouses, and more emigrated or exiled from house and home. The decrease in pigs was from 1,412,813 in 1841. to 577,133 a decrease of 835,625 in aggregate number. In poultry, the decrease on 8,334,427 in 1S41 was 3,378.279; and this, as in the ease of other stock, was altogether upon the small farms. The stock was eaten up mostly, and to some extent seized for rent ; thus increasing the stock on the large farms. The breadth of land cultivated in 1313 was 5,103,062 acres, against, 4.605,593 in 1S47. This was exclusive cf the counties of Waterford and Tipperary, where the disturbances prevented returns being taken. The quantity of the land in grain was diminished, however, white that in potatoes was 453,733 acres, or 160 per cent, more than in 1Ö47. The late accounts indicate that the rot is again becoming serious, and on an increased cultivation will have a more important influence. The returns show, however, that the yield per acre in 1343 was far less than in 1847. The following figures show the bushels per acre for grain and tons for potatoes in tie two years: Wheat. Barley. Oats. Rye. Potatoes, tons. 1347, 31.4 39.0 41.8 40.6 7.27 1343, 22.0 37.3 37.6 39.2 3.83 This deficit was very great, and there is every reason to apprehend that the result was the same in England. Thus although the harvest of 1849 was known to be good, the quantities of grain entered for consumption in Great Eritain for the year, August 1, 1549, was as follows: Wheat. Barley. Oats. Rye. peas, Indian Total and beans, eoni. quarter. Qrs., 4,353,645 1,313,827 12183 1,018,481 2,2S7,MJ 10,174,919 In addition to this was 3,503,375 cwt. of flour, equal to 1,002,393 qrs. of grain. This enormous quantity, equal to 55,1)00,000 bushels, was added to the production of the British islands without much affecting price. Hence the usual consumption must have been very large, or the acreable product, as ascertained in the case of Ireland, very small.. This is, as we have atated, the natural effect of low prices, produced by foreign competition, which will not warrant the expensive mode of culture necessary to a large yield per acre in England; also, in some degree, to the influence or railroads upon labor. The exports from the United States U Great Britain and Ireland for a period corresponding to the above imports were as follows, reducing the flour and grain to barrels aud bushels: Export f'f breadstuff t from the United States to Great Britain and import into Greil Britain, year ending August, 1S49. Flour, bbls. Wheat, buth. Corn, bush. Import R Britain, l,754,l(J7 J4,589,160 18,298,C64 Export U. States, 1,114,0)9 1,04,365 12,721,6-26 The corn and flour have chiefly been supplied hence, and the wheat from other countries. Thia has been under the operation of the navigation laws, which cease with this year. The operation of free trade in coin and freights with the changing culture in Ireland, must operate to check home supplies, while improved employment and low prices will naturally promote consumption. It was ascertained by the census of 1341, that thoe employed in raising food in Great Bi itain were to other employments as 1,000 to 2,934, and this had increased from the census of 1830 from 1,( 00 to 2.H00 the then ratio. The effect of free trade in corn and navigation, by promoting manufacturing industry, and removing the legislative bounty to agriculture, will naturally encourage this tendency to increase the consumers and diminish the producers in the British islands, creating an annually increasing demand for foreign food, in the double rtio cf growing population and changing employments. It is to be observed that the important statistics that have been collected in relation to Ireland are the first returns ever made of two consecutive harvests that approach accuracy in any country. Could they be extended to England and the United States, their value would be incalculable. At the approaching census, efforts will be made to approximate accurate returns in Great Britain, and should by no means he neglected in the United States. The agricultural interest is that on which all others depend. With us, the welfare of commerce and manufactures fluctuates always with the prosperity of acriculture; and Great Eritain, as a manufacturing district of immense capital and capacity, is about to be annexed to Ike United Stales. American food can go without tax, and in ve.sxelsaa free as our own coasters. This i annexation. AH that our farmers now want, is to get the proceeds of thote sales as freely back; and 30.0OO.U0O of British will have been added to our '-home market" Accurate statistical returns of the wants of Britain ar.d the productions of the United States will then regulate the markets so as to carry our agricultural prosperity to the highest point. An organisation of census commissioners for every county in the Union, elected by the people, and caused o make annual return, could eaaiiy and cheaply con -ent rate accurate and invaluable statistics. The crmin? census ought to met public expectation upon this h;ad. You will remember that Mr. Carey, supported by tne whig Review, objected to my assertion that manufactures in the United States had progressed more in the last two years as a consequence of the improved rrx?ana of the agricultural interest, growing out of profitable exports, than for any previous season. A manufacturing circular before me, advocating protective duties, has the following expression which I Coro

trend to the Review. Speaking of the production of ht wis, it says: "We think it aar to aet down the production for the eniu.nt; yeai at 500,000. These will consume 2,000.000 Ihs. of wool an astonishing increase, when we remember L'uit two years ago there woas hardly such an articU as an American shawl in the market." According to the census of 1940, the pros production of wool in the Union was 35,802.000 lbs. Up to 1847, it appears no portion of that was ued in the manufacture of eliawls. Under the present tariff that manufacture hat eprunrr up to an extent which consumes 2,0K),000 lbs. Tho Ability to buy shawls has created a demand for the far. tier's wool.

From the Louiivill Journal. Oreat Central Railway. This is the ge.f rnilrcnd improvements. Tho North, the South, (! Eat and the West, arc alive to their interest allere pressing on with their railronda, connecting th-ir principal cities with the interior, and concentrating their commercial action upon their towns and cities, while they are uniting distant points, and almost annihilating time and space as compared with our former movements through the interior by stages, or even upon our rivers and laks by our steamers. The elder State of the East Id off, and are now reaping the fruits of their foresight and energy. The object of this article, however, is not merely to speak of this matter in general terms, but to direct the attention of our readers, and especially of the citizens of Louisville, to the great Central railway between the cities of Doston, New York, Philadelphia, and Baltimore, through Indianapolis, to intersect the Atlantic and Pacific; railroad at St. Louis. This is evidently to be the great interior thoroughfare t;f business and travel of the United States, and it will be important to form connections with it from the commercial cities situated off the line. The citizens of all such citiea will be deeply interested in having such connection, and especially will this be the case with the citizen of Louisville, as we shall attempt to show. That our readers may have before their minds and be enabled to trace on the map the lines of this great Central railway, we descend to particulars. The Boston line runs through Springfield to Albany, New York, where it meets the Hudson river line from the city of New York ; a singlo line is run from Albany, through Herkimer, Syracuse, Rochester, and the intermediate towns to Buffalo, on the lake ; and from Buffalo a line is being constructed on the south side of the lake to Cleveland and Sandusky in fXio. There is another line from the city of New York, by Goshen, Deposit, Einghampton, And.iver, and Orleans, to Dunkirk, on the lake, where it intersects the line last mentioned. We leave these lines at Cleveland and Sandusky, and proceed to bring up the great Pennsylvania line. This line is intersected at Philadelphia by a lin from New York city through the State of New Jersey. From Philadelphia the line West runs through Lancaster, Harrisburg, Pittsburg, Beaver, and the intermediate towns in Pennsylvania; Salem, Canton, Woostcr, Mnssillon, Mansfield, Marion, iJclJefontaine, Sidney, and the intermediate towns in the State of Ohio; Union, Winchester, Muncie, Anderson, Pendleton, Indianapolis, the capital of Indiana, GreeucastJe, Terre Haute, and the intermediate towns in Indiana; M-trrdiall, Martinsville, Greenup. Ewingtnii. Vandalia, the old capital of Illinois,) Greenville, Pocahontas, UJinoitown, opposite St. Louis, on the Mississippi, and intermediate towns in Illinois. Thi is the crent central direct line between Philadelphia, by Pittsburgh, Indianapolis und St. Louis. The line from Bos'on and New York, which we left at Cleveland and Pittsburg, connects with the main central line, from Cleveland, at Gallion, west of Mansfield; and from Sandusky at Be.Uefontainr, on the Mad river raürond, the great Baltimore line is intersected at that city by a northern line from Philadelphia, and a southern line from Washington City. From Baltimore, the line runs near Frederick and Hagere town in Maryland to Cumberland, from which point it is about being extended through the mountains to Wheeling, Virginia, on the Ohio, St. Clairsville, Zanesville, and the intermidiate towns to Columbus, the capital of Ohio. From this point, two lines will run west, the ore through Urbana, Piqua and Greenville to Union, at the Indiana State line, where it will intersect the great central trunk line before described, and the other through Springfield, Dayton, Richmond, and the intermediate towns in Indiana to Indianapolis, where it will connect with the capital of the State of Indiana, one end with the lines of railway intersecting the main line at that point, which it may be proper to lay down, as the object of this article is mainly to show the citizens of Louisville the interest they have in a direct railroad communication between this city and Indianapolis Cincinnati is about 80 miles or four hours run from the main line. She will doubtless tap the line by her railways through Ohio, and perhaps at Indianapolis, and it is for Louiaville, that is 120 miles or G hours from Indianapolis, to look to her own interest. At Indianapolis, besides the Madison and Indianapolis, and the centre line that enters the city from the northcast, known as the Indianapolis and Belief mtaino railroad, under the charge of O. II. Smith, running 80 miles to the Ohio line, being a link in the great Philadelphia and Pittsburg road with which the Cleveland and Smduky roads connect oa we have stated, there are several other railroads Icing constructed, the main line West, to Herre Haute 70 miles, under the charge of Chancey Rose ; the Lafayette road to intersect the Wabash at that point, 70 miles, under the charge of Albert S. White ; the Peru road to intersect the Wabah and Erie canal at that point, 70 miles, under the charge of John3urk ; and a contemplated rood from Indianapolis to Evansville on the Ohio river. It is only necessary to direct the mind of the reader to the facts we have now stated, to show the prrat importance tf connecting our city at Indianapolis with these great lines of railway. Such a connection wrould put tis in direct communication by railway with St. Louis, as well as with the whole interior of Indiana, Illinois, Ohio, the Eastern States, and the Eastern Atlantic cities by the most rapid novement known to this progressive see. Our connection completed, and it will be but 18 hours by Indianapolis to St. Louis, 13 hours to Sandusky on the lake, the same to Cleveland, 24 hours to Pittsburgh, 36 hours to Philadelphia, 39 hours to New York, 44 hours to Boston, 34 hours to Baltimore, 6 hours to Indianapolis. We will not detain the reader with & comparison of the time here 6tatcd (which is at 20 miles to the hour railroad run, which will be increased to 30 miles on the heavy T rail now generally used) with the time now occupied by the present mode of travelling; the reader will of course do that. There is however one matter to which we wish to draw the attention of the business men of nur city, as well as those of Southern Kentucky and Tennessee, and that is, the great facility that will be created by this connection for the transportation of goods from the Eastern cities. We have now to rely solely upon the Ohio river, and our experience is ample as to the great difficulties that we have to encounter in obtaining our poods after they have been purchased in the East. When the merchant purchases his goods, it is generally upon a short credit fur at least part of the amount, and it is a great object to bim to got them into the market as soon as possible. Here he is met by the obstacles of ice and low water in our river, and hi poods are thrown into the warehouses at Pittsburgh, Wheeling, or Cincinnati, waiting for transportation. AH this will be avoided when the great central line shall be completed through Indianapolis, and our connection shall be made to that city. Our citizens know that there is a road commencing at JeflVrsonville opposite to our city, under the charge of William G. Armstrong, now progressing to completion. This road intersects the Madison and Indianapolis railroad at Columbus (Ind.) and will, when finished, give us the direct connection at Indianapolis, so much to be desired. Will not our citizens at once come forward and give to the company the necessary aid to complete this road without delay J The stocV must amply repay, and, next to the great central line, must become one or the very best railroads in tho West. We have occupied more space with this article than we usually do upon ordinary subjects, but we trust our readers will thank us for drawing their attention to a subject so important to the people and so intimately connected with their interest.

The Canadian League. -The Montreal Herald states thai the Canadian delegates from the British North American league met the delegates from Nova Scotia and New Brunswick on Saturday fortnight. No official account of their proceedings had been received, but the Herald, from other sources, sums up their conclusions as follows: First, that the colony cannot go on as it is at present ; second that tho remedy for the acknowledged evil is independence of Great Britain described in language more or less distinct and a union of the several British North American colonies', with a protective tariff against British and other foreign goods.

If they gain another member in Louisiana, they will hive a majority of seven. Some of the letter-writers say that "five whig free-soilers are believed t be pledged to vote against Mr. Winthrop. In that case, he can have but little chance, even if he obtain the vote of Mr. Wentworth."

THE GLOBE: ? A Congressional, Agricultural and Literary Newspaper. The approach of Congress calls out the Annual Prospectus of the Globe Establishment The time is full of interest. The coming in of a new Administration the consequent broaching of a new policy touching the internal concerns of the country ibe new and most impottaot issues aiising from the la'e vast accession to the public domain, and the great national objects associated with it the i-r pending difficulty in our relations with Franer, and the possible cmplirati n of nur afT.it! with the troubles of Europe, conspire to cieite great expectation as to the proceedings of the ext Cng;res. The approaching; Resion will ptubably continue till late in the summer of 1S50. The debatet, from the agitation of so many question of vital ioteiest to the Republic, will draw forth all the talent of the National Legislature. To biinjj its deliberations home to the people, on each succeeding; da J, while measures are maturing;, is, in effect, to brin the whole nation into council. The discussion, spreading from the Capi'ol to the remotest parts of the Union, Turns a public opiniju which reacts upon Congress and controls its decisions. To become a useful instrument, however humble, to assist the wotking cf Ibe admirable machinery of our popular insti'titions, is the ambition of the conductor of the Globe.

Ei'raordinary preparations hare theiefore been made to meet the increasing dtmanisof our rapi.lly-improving sod giowinjr countt y f.n Concessional intelligence. The Globe Tre .in alitady enlisted the ablest Reporters yet known tu C -neress j it, mateiials and nnrhinerv are of the brat sort; and the exclusive devotion of the individual who for m many years haj made it bis duty tu embody and publish the labors cf Cougiess, gives reason to hpe that ao advance will be made in the ccnmpHshment of this undertaking cornmensuiate with its incieaed impoitance. Ba' the accumulation of exinse consequent on the additional number of Repoiters required the extra charges incurred in punt inn at night the debates of the piereding day the vast additi-in made t the mass published, by the pi oti acted sessions and the fuller reports given, will tender our enter prise a failme, unless Congress shall w fat parrnise it as to become a putchaser of such portion of the dily sheets is. sued, as shall conti ibu'e t make the reports thai fill them. The nnder-igned has ventured on the preparation he has made for Ibe next Session, in the expectation that Congress will sub'ciibe f'r as many daily sheets f.ir each Member, at the subset Ipiion price, as will, in part, defray the expense tf repotting, and give them circulation as Congrei nl dcnmrnts in their several dilr ct. ThU will enable the Publisher in bear the charge of leporting. and it will give an impulse lo the circulation tf the Congiei-nal Pii"t, which, although the cheapest in the Uniun (the expense of prrpaialion considered) will yet jield sufficient profit to make the system permanent. Joh.i C Rites having purchased the inleresl of F. P. Blair in Jackson Hall the printing office macbineiy and material becomes the aole propuetor theieof, and will give bis exclusive attention to the Congressional Department. J. C. Pickett will conduct the Miscellaneous Department of the Newspsper. F. P. Blais retires from both concerns. with prayers lor their permanent usefulness and prosperity. The Globe will be published daily during the session of Congress, and weekly the remainder of the year, and will nndeigo distribution in the form of a Weekly Globe, a Congressional Globe, and an Appendix. The Weekly Globe will contain Agricnltuial and Miscel laneous articles t d will occasionally give debates of such importance as command universal interest. The pi ice of the Weekly Globe ia reduced to one dollar. wi'h a view to obUm a more geretal cnculti n. Subscri bers who have hithetto paid $2 per annum, will be charged only SI after the expiration of the first year The Congresinal Globe will embody, as it has done for the last sixteen years, Congressional ptoceediogs and debates exclusively. The Appendix will embrace the levisel speeches separately, and the messages of the Pre-ilen of the United Slates and the tepotts of the Heads of the Executive Drariments. The Congressional Globe and Appendix will be published as fast as the proceedings cf Congress will meke a number, ubscitbeis may expect one number of each a week during the first four weeks of a session, and two or three nnmbeis of each a week afterwards, until ihe end of the session.

Agricultural r4 have often alluded lo ihe ptactice, advising its adoption, and givinc ninny results showing a saving of aned and of labor, and a greatly Increased yield of grain. Five bushels and upward per acre, or twenty lo thirty per cent, has been the usual increased yield ever the broadcast system. Whe:d planted by this machine ia equally distributed in rows tn a uniform depth. Hence a unilormity in Die aixe and length of straw, not to be found in w heat mixed wilh the earth at various depths, aa by the old method. Many advantages Incident to the drill system, are given by writers, who have fully prove its utility by practice ; one of the moat prominent of which is, the protection of the wheal from being winter killed. About 10 acres per day with a machine adapted to this section of country, and If to It acres per day with those tunable ibr a prairie, may ba estim..! as tha usual days' work for a hand and two borsea to plant all complete. Another practice has alo been added, to-wit : that of korto-koeuir ia Ihe spring; a process by.which the earth between Ihe rows, ia loosened or cultivated, by a cheap and simple machine, by a man and horse, to the extent of six to ten arres per day. A writer in the Genese Farmer, February number, 1813 pare 40, speaking of Drilling and Horn hating, asserta, upon his owo experience, that "land that ordinarily priMluces only fifteen of twenty bushels per acte, will under ruvojnbleeircumst.-tncea, yie'd from thirty to thirty five, and even as high aa forty bushels per aer. ' Farmers of Illinois and Michigan, a well as central and northern Indiana, are desired to make them, aelvee acquainted, as fully as posainle, with this mode oi cultivation. A field of ten acres of wheat, drilled enln, now growing on Ihe farm of James lilnke, Esq. in tlte suburbs of this city, affords a practical experiment, tn which attention is respectfully solicited.
