Lou. Jour. Fallou'ing of Ground and Sowing of Fall Grain. So soon as your harvest shall have been got through with and your several grains secured from harm's way, plow up such fields as you may intend for rye and wheat. Of the first of these grains we would advise that it be sown a early in September as possible, and that the ground for each be put in tip-top order taking care that limo or marl ehher be naturally in the soil or applied. Altho' rye may not require as much lime for its food as wheat, still it requires some, and the prudent husbandman will see to it that it be supplied. Of the time of sowing wheat, we have long thought that many farmers delay it too long. The Mediterranean wheat may, without danger, be

sown any time after tlie 10th of Septem

ber, and we are of opinion that none of the other varieties should be delayed longer than the first week in October, as we really believe that more injury results io thi3 crop from winter-killing than from the Hessian fly, as disastrous as are the ravages of that insect. It is obvious that if the playing be delayed till late in the fall that the plants cannot root sufficiently to resist the thawings and freezings of winter and early spring, and consequently that a very large portion of them must perish. .liner.

C7An article on the 'Literature of the Negro,' in the Magnolia, states it as a significant fact, which has been strangely overlooked, that the three words Ham, Shem, and Japhet, nean, in the original Hebrew, black, red, and white.
