Southern Planter lives alout seventy -five, miles from the office jh rough which that pajer is issued, he knew nothing of the mistake until the paper had been published. He made a very satisfactory apology for the error in a private letter, promising at the same time a correction1' in the succeeding, number but the correction never made its appearance, and moreover, the mistake reappeared in the. index at the end of the volume. Of course the matter was forgotton by the worthy editor. The, experiment above alluded to was fairly tperformed, but can hardly be considered as con clusive evidence that dry gypsum will act upon ammonia, since the manure used was moist, and therefore, soon moistened the gypsum mingled with it.

was certainly not moisture enough present to dissolve the gypsum. Othes experiments liave confirmed me in the belief that ground plaster affords one of the most convenient, as well as most eRectual means of "fixing" (that is, decomposing) the carbonate of ammonia, generated in fermenting vegetable and animal manures. The presence of moisture is certainly advantageous iu tli is as in most other cases of chemical action but there is no necessity whatever for having the gypsum in a state of solution. On the contrary, I think this would result in a disadvantage, frpm the large quantity ot" water required to dissolve it; the proportion being not less than about five hundred parts of water to one of gypUm. If, in this condition a sufficient quantity were, used to answer the purpose fully, a portion of the resulting sulphate of ammonia would undoubtedly hi washed out arid lost.

The moisture alwav nresen in ina- rnaure collected from stables and barn-yards, if sufficient to cause fermentation, will also be suf ficients to cause fermentation, will also be sufficient to promote the required chemical action between the plaster and carbonate of ammouia, When gypsum is us-ed for fixing the ammonia ot guano, the mixture should be muistened; otherwise, he chemical interchange of elementsw.i!l go on very slowly. Ashes should not be used with the plaster when mixed with guano, as the carbonate of potash in the ashes would reduce a portion of the plaster to the carbonate of lime, which does not act upon the salts of ammonia under ordinary circumstances. Yours very respectfully, J. L. Campbell.

"This remedy," says our contemporary, "ap pears to have been thoroughly effectual so ef fectual, that persons who deplored their uncontrollable propensity, have petitioned for admission tc the hospital in order to be cured; and they have been cured." The following anecdote of Munden's foresidit I heard, says a writer in Frazer's Magazine, from the lady herself, who was the victimized party.

LETTER FROM PROF. EMMONS. To His Excellknct, Davto S. Rejo: Havwood, April 3, 1824. Sir The principal object for which I visited Stanly and Anson Counties was to determine the character of that of -rocks which in Chatham and Moore contain the coal, and especially to 'satisfy myself of the continuance of ihat portion of the' fottuation which is immediately associated with the coal.

Of the special object which I had in view, I regret to say, that I was not so fortunate as to add much to the information which we already possessed. coal shales, however, am satisfied, exteud to wiUiin a few miles of the Pee Dee, but immediately upon the river the alluvial covers deeply that portion of the formation which in Moore and Chatham contains coal. I am not, however, without hopes that hereafter a fortunate excavation of some kind may be made which shall disclose the coal shales, On my return from Stanly and Anson, I passed through portions of Randolph, Davidson and Oh ath am, which I had not previously visited, and I deem it proper to state that these fouriievs and visits over the coal field have increased my confidence in its irunortance, and I now it more important to the economical fulfilment of a national design than ever. You are aware, Sir, that the Government pro poses to establish a National Foundry. It must be plain to every considerate man that such an establishment should concentrate'in itself or in its location, as many advantageous elements as possible; and in order to be carried on with proper economy some of these elements, at least, must becoinbiued in its location.

Of these necessary elements, it is plain there should be coal and iron. It is scarcely necessary to sav in thi coke, for smelting, melting, or reducing the iron ore, or for all the purposes for which tuel is required in the manufactures; it may largely used for creating heat before it is de- bitumized. The iron ore of Deer River is both abundant and excellent, existing in connection with the rocks belonging to the xal series, and al- soin those whicli underlie them. The amount in the underlying rocks is inexhaustible and that the coal series may probably be regaaded in the same light, as ere is a bed nine feet thick extending for miles in the formation. Copper is also another metal which is furnished, or which believe will be furimhtd iu the neighborhood Deep River.

The two metals iron and cop per are the metals important to a national estab- lithtnent. exists Davidson county, but has been hitherto lost; and wasted in processes which the ore has been subjected for the purpose of obtaining the silver and gold which are associated with it. In addition to the coal River, the country turni nf ivimd and timber. TI pine are as yet uninjured. For wood work and building, timber can be furnished cheaply, for a omr to comc Deey River is accessible.

It is scarcely nec essary to memtion the lines of communication which are opened, arid which may be opened. Deep River, 1 may remaik, will soon be navigable, and which will connect it with the Atlantic by Wilmington and Fayetteville. Beaufort will ultimately be another terminus upon the Atlan tic But to complete the lines winch shall ter- minate upon the seaboard, a line of only 30 miles of railroad should be built, beginning at some point ten miles west of Raleigh, and euding at or near the Gulf on Deep River. The comple- tion of this wouiu bring ieep itiver wiunn 12 hours of Norfolk, passing through Raleigh, Weldoq and Portsmouth. It will be seen that Deep River need not be a country of little account as it hitherto has been and it will also be perceived that it has 'all the important ele ments which are necessary to constitute tue site of a national scheme, which will end an increase of the power of our country; and it fur thermore appears to me that government snouia esteem itself fortunate if it can secure so favorable a position for the contemplated national es- tablMunent.

It is a fine agricultural section of country, a fact of sonsiderable importance, as it ensures a supply ot the means 01 living at nome and at the cheapest rates. It is not proper for me to suggest those meas ures which may bo deemed necessary to secure action upon the matter. ludeed, I do not know hnw th National nroiect now stands any thing definite has been determined upon niv not; OUt It seemeu pruwci wi-o not but it seemed proper to state to your celleney the iwh.c. tu.M. produ- ced npon my rn.na 7 a a I a 1 aTT mo HirillH I II Mi II If'll I I rt I l-T 1111111 WF" i y-M-arv irnw I am, sir, most respectfully, Your obedient serv't EBENEZER EMMONS, Geol.

SeymOurV toueliingHhe manifest; destiny the Turkish empire renders certain and inevitable the fearful ultimatum of a universal, complicated and bloody war in Europe. Th Rubicon js crossed andfrarjce and England are entering into a conflict which though it may not last as longj-will in all human probability result in more numerous and more jadical changes in the boundaries and po-Iitacal systems of the Central and Western Pbw ers of Europe, than were achieved during the twenty-five years of the vrnrs of the first French revolution The first inquirysuggested to the mind, in view of this terrible drama before us, is, what is to be the termination of this deadly struggle among the European Powers Prima facie, the general conclusion will be that Russia; hemmed it upon the Black Sea and the Baltic by the fleets of England and tftt.ofr from the support rf Prussia and Austria, while a nucleus of French and British troops are to give discipline and efficiency to the Turkiu forces -tho general impression will be, that Russia must, in the end, succumb, and accept the terms of peace which the Western Powers may be pleased to dictate as their ultimatum. "This, howerer, is but a superficial ngement of the probable issue of the grand impending struggle.

The English journals lay claim to a vast amount of virtue, integrity, self-denial and generosity on the part of their Cabinet in to accede to the tempting overtures'of the Czar for the division of the spoils of the dying Turkish empire.

But it may well be questioned whether, in this self-complacent refusal- to cooperate with the Czar in the appropriation of the plunder, England is entitled to any credit whatever on the ground of a lofty and disinterested magnanimity. Policy is the full explanation of her generous forbearance regard to lurkey. Suppose she had entered into the proposed secret alliance with Nicholas upon the basis of an understanding "as between gentlemen" the first step to the reduction of Turkej of terms involved would have instantly aroused the resistance of France. The French steam, navy, built expressly with the view of meeting the possible contingency of a rupture with England, would find little diffiulty in lauding, in a single night, fifty or a hundred thousand men upon her shores, and lessdifhcultv in exciting an Irish in furnishing the insurgents with arms and mu nitions of war. The acceptance of the Czar's proposals would have involved, in a word, the alternative of a war with France.

This contingency, in giving full employment to the. fleets and armies of England, would leave the Czar in the undisputed occupation of the Turkish dominions. The Czar, in his eargerness for the prize, overreached himself. lie has shown his hand, and England, in refusing his alliance, has only consulted her interest a coalition with her more immediate and combustible neighbor. What is the position of England an'd France towards Turkey At this very moment it is substantially'tbe sort of protection proposed by the Emperor Nicholas.

Turkey this day is only under the protectorate of England and France, instead of England and Kussia. Her sovereignty is an abstraction, her independence a fic uon. cue is, iaci, out iiuie man a colony. fl I ..1 1 1 under the joint occupation of the Western Powers. They may divide her territories as they please, for the issue with Russia is recisely the same as it the partition had obsolutely been made against his prior claims and pretensions.

What are Jigypt, and Candia, and the Holy Places of Palestine, to Turkey now Mere nominal dependencies, subject to England, witl theconsent of France, without further trcub'e. The'Sultan is but the depeudent of his western allies. His fate is their hands; and if thev expel the Czar from his territories, they must umue mem upon uie plan 01 iNicnolas, or con tinue their protection over the Sultan as the vice roy of England and France. The fate of Tur key is sealed. She cannot be abandoned by her present allies without being absorbed by Russia.

Hencefprth she muBt form a dependency of ranee ana anguine, or a part ot the lttfssian empire. In any events, the reign of Islamisra is extinct and Christianity, for the future, is pro- dominant in the East. As between the Cross and the Crescent, the struggle is al reads decided The political issues of this continental on test. however, are the questions in war our gins. 1 he fleets of England and France scelb the Russians from the Black Sea and the Ba-tic The armies of France and England imnart terrible energy to the resistance of the Turks upon the Danube.

IbenrosDect is that they will be compelled ultimately to join the Czar, in which case they will leave the bulk of ins'armies iree tor tne occupation of the Turkish dominions in Europe and Asia. 15u there is to be a third great party in this continental war, which appears to have been en-; tii ely overlooked in the estimates of the French 1 and imglish journals.

We are not apt to think of that vast pi of pork, beef, mutton, corn, drc, carried from the fafm, for two or three generations, without having the same elements restored again to it.

Very well said the Bishop. So calling to the two bailiffs, he said You two men come to me to-morrow morn ing, and Til satisfy you." lhe men bowed and went away.
