SPIRIT OF THE MORNING PRESS. The Union, in noticing that, to-day, members of Congress are to be elected for New York, for New Jersey and Indians, for Minois, Michigan, Wisconsin, and Massachusetts, say: «WF t for the Democracy some important gains; bat'it is useless to disguise the apprehea- zion which res us to of very serious disasters. I( can hardly ve otherwise ia the cir- cumstances which surround the contest. The ‘Bame causes which conspired for our discomfiture in Pennsylvania, Indtana and Obio, are still in operation; defection in the Democratic ranks, fusion, alliance, union among the various factions of opposition.” The Intelligencer notices the “elections tc- day.” eo * > The whole number of deaths in New York last week was 348. i> The number of deaths from yellow fever in New Orleans up to the 2ith of October was 4,457. i>” The Howard Association of New Orleans have closed their labors, the yellow fever being no longer epidemic in that city. So says a dis- Patch from E. F. Schmidt, President. © U7 The weekly statement of the New York city banks show an increase of $1,219,000 in loans; $729,000 inadeposits; $160,000 in undrawn depos- ites, and a decrease of $1,991,000 in specie and $57,000 in circulation. i> A Virginia gentieman proposes to donate $30,000 for the erection of an Agricultural Col- lege in the vicinity of the University of Virginia on condition that the farmers of the State will sender the donation available for the purpose, by contributing an additional sum of $50,000. pe Sa ceeeceeuseeabas i> A long, low, black schooner called the Madison, lately employed in the coast survey, has been taken i charge by the U. 8.

AcricuctunaL Fit [ Editorial Correspondence J, £ Rueamoxrp, Va., Oct. 27, 1858. The crowd thickens here, momentarily. Few among the new-comers of the day on the Fair grounds, however, appear to be Virginia farm- ere. ‘Sporting’? men, speculators in the means—methods and modes—of agriculture, wondermongers and itinerant showmen, seem to be most numerous among them. One can see around the inélcsure’ almost everything, from the wonderful colt, born with three lege, to the machiné man, aud the “live man’* (in the next tent) who dispenses strychnine whisky at six- pence glass. Accordeon girls and triangle boys salute one at every turn in the inclosure, and the handsome but brazen Yankee woman who follows the vagrant Italian harpist (but does not play on the guitar she holds in her hand) is as inevitably in every Richmond bar room one enters, in these times, as in such places in Washington during a portion of the last session of Congress. The rooms of all the hotels of this city are crowded to overflowing with the classes, from the North for the most part, who always take occasion to make por- tions of such gatherings. I am not impressed with the belief that their interest in the pro- gress of American agriculture will be likely to benefit the cause ezzentially. Be that as it may, perhaps the entrance money they pay is necessary to make up suf- ficient to defray the heavy expenses of agricul- tural shows. If so, it is to be regretted that the farmers do not subscribe sufficient to carry them on in a manner which, while not attrac- tive to this objectionable army of chevaliers @industrie, in a hundred ways will prove more attractive to the real agriculturist, who, in visiting such a fair, does not desire to be set by peddier people at every turn, essaying to force on him everything they may fancy he, by any possibility, might like—from toothpicks and eranges up to thousand-dollar bulls and five thousand-dollar stallions. The display of novel agricultural implements on the ground is excellent, many of them be- ing articles almost wholly unknown to farmers north of Maryland. There are the tobacco presses and machinery for the use of farmers working very large forces; horse powers for sixteen horses, with threshing machines to match; and Southern corn-planters, which de- posite fertilizers with the grain, draining plows, &c. All flat land at the South is. or should be, carefully drained, as well asditched. That is, it should, when prepared for a crop, be careful- ly surface drained by numerous plow fur rows emptying into the ditches of the field. The best machine on the ground to effect that object is a plew invented and exhibited by a Mr. A. P. Routt, ot Somerset, Orange county, vit Behind this plow follows a para- bolic roller of cast iron, so arranged as to make compact the surface of the drain as left by the plow, as well as to press down toa level any soil thro: t ofthe ditch by the mould board. It is a imple implement; and, having been thoroughly tested in the region where manufactured, it is adopted by all there who appreciate the importance of saving labor in the Preparation of land for crops. Without such an implement on a considerable farm in flat land, especially, many days labor are requisite to trim down the sides and surface of the fur- row drains; and then nothing is done in the way of packing the earth that has been dis- turbed (loosened) in making the furrow drain— which is essential if the farmer would hope that they would stand the frosts and thaws of the spring. I know that Mr. Routt’s plow Saves at least half the work of making such drains, and makes them far more satisfactorily than in any ether way I wot of. So I write it down really a valuable implement. So, also, is his Southern Corn Planter, now more used in Virginia than any other, owing to its cheapness and efficiency combined. It is designed for drilling and covering corn, and depositing guano, ashes, bone dust, £c., in the hill at the same time. There are perhaps twenty different patterns of reapers and mowers on the ground—every day scems to bring forth a new one. Of them all the only one which appears to embrace a useful improvement over the rest is the ma- chine ef Mr. R L. Allen, of New Yorke For & year or two past it has been coming exten- sively into use in Virginia and North Carolina, wherever a reaper to be efficient must be able to pass freely over the numerous ditches with which the fields are necessarily intersected. Perhaps on account of the facility with which it accomplishes that end, it has already taken first premiums at Virginia and North Carolina State Fairs. Its draft is comparatively light, also, aud the workmanship of it is capitally executed. These are substantial reasons why it seems to attract so much more of the notice cf the Southern agriculturists now here than any other such machine on exhibition. Mr. Cummins, of Harrisburg, Pa., exhibits a cut- ting-box and stalk-crusher upon his patent, which turns out a bushel of such feed per min- ute when driven by two-horse power. On es- tates keeping from twenty to forty horses and mules, and hundreds of cattle and sheep, such a machine is invaluable. I have had one of smaller size in daily use for a year past; it has not cost a penny for repairs, and I am sat- isfied that the saving of time and food from its use has already repaid me its original cost five or six times over. The display of wheat fans is extensive. Fow real improvements have been made in that im- plement in the last ten years, and it is high time that it should be rendered more efficient. The Jatest invented threshing machines em- brace fans also, but their combined application requires an expenditure of horse Power such as few farmers have at command. I have taken up the idea that wheat “got out” with ma- chines that thresh over two hundred bushels per diem, are prone to break the grain, and thus essentially to injure it for market or seed. The thresher which, while it leaves no grain in the straw, also breaks no grain, is the imple- ment for me. The trouble with fans arises from the fact that both cozkle and garlic seed are so near the size of grains of wheat that it is almost impossible to regulate riddles or screens te separate them, while their weight is so nearly alike that to essay to blow them out is to blow away much merchantable wheat with them. My remedy for the garlic and cockle nuisances, now that I despair of finding a fan that will really rid me of them, is the exercise of great care in picking over seed wheat to be cut for the next years’ sowing. It isa very tedious job to pick over from ten to thirty bushels of wheat almost by the single handful. ¥et, untilsome enterprising inventor arranges ® fan which will cure the garlic and cockle Buisances, that will be the farmers only guar- pe — afoul crop. In what is termed & tolerably clean crop, after passing the grain three times through the fan, by hand picking ope can reap an average of more than an eighth pik “ppt to the bushel of wheat us cleaned. ve no doubt that every bushel of wheat sent to market thus cleaned would sell for at least five cents per bushel more than the balance of the o of considerable profit to the farmer if thus to clean wheat did not cost him more than five cents per bushel. But it is to be hoped that in due time something in the way of s wheat fan will be invented which, while blowing away no merchantable grain, will surely relieve it of all impurities. W. D. W—a.
