' Yesterday, being one of the periodical occasions upon which the members of this Club assemble at the Institute, in the Park, for the discussion of co- lateral, as well as stipulated topics, connected with | the promotion of agriculture—the meeting was or- ganized by the appointment of Dr. Underhill as chairman, and Mr. Meigs as secretary, ‘The reading of the minutes of the last meeting | being dispensed with, the Club was opened for the | discussion of the hour ot any miscellaneous matter that came within its province—when a communice- | tion was read from Mr. J. Van Wiske to A.B. Allen, accompanied by various specimens of marl, | produced from the pit of the former gentleman, on his farm at New Hamburgh, Dutchess county. The specific combinations of each species excited an in- teresting discussion, as to the merits of the compo- nent parts—their application to various soils—and their virtues in promoting the diversified objects of agriculture. Here, the various component proper- ties of marl and the method of testing the general combination of potash, soda, decomposed shells, &e., were argued, each advocate claiming a prefer- ence to that best adapted to the deficiency of the soil that that substancefwas calculated to improve or renovate. i shite t . Dr. Frtp entered into his favorite theories, with regard to the efficacy of muck, as exemplified upon his farm, and recapitulated the process by which his general crops have, through that medium of cultiva- tion, exceeded, in quality and pentitg, those of his neighbors, The absorption of the anionia might be promoted by the application of the use of the mate- rialsef the hen roost. Cor. Clarke was of opinion that marls were di tinetly suited to distinet soils. One member sug: gested experiments, upon a small scale, uj difler- ent portions of a farm; while another advocated a chemical analysis—the latter, as too expensive and slow, was repudiated, and the former system pro- nounced more positive and effectual. “The chair- man suggested several valuable processes, by which alluvia—swamp muck—and marl combined, could be rendered serviceable to every soil, by the admix- ture of linae and vegetable alluvia. Mr. McDonap, of Alabama, was introduced at this point to the members. This gentleman is an agriculturist and planter. He carefully examined the specimens of marl upon the table, and saw no- thing in their appearance like the blue marl. His plan of using the marl, was placing it ina lot, and allowing the cattle to tread upon it, ; Gov. Hammonp failed in his experiments, by spreading the marl broadcast. He drew out 10,000 bushels, mixed it with pine strata, and upon thirty acres obtained an unusual crop. A communication was received from Emanven RussELL, upon the advantages of planting French willows, as more flexible and lighter in manufac- ture, than those of this country. He recommended the plants, or slips, of 14 to 16 inches in length,with 6 inches in the earth—to be planted in broad ditch- es, from two and a half to three feet apart. 7 The hour of miscellaneous conversation being exhausted, the legitimate subject was introduced. “Tasects and their Destructive Effects.” _ The Cuairman wished to correct an error which had been attributed to him, of the influence of the Hessian fly, and wheat worm, which he desired to remove, i confining his remarks to the ‘winter wheat” only, After describing the havoc produced in almost every vegetable by these nuisances, and im- pediments to free existence and their destructive at- tributes, he recommended the ploughing of the soil iu the spring as the best means of obviating the future progress of these and the canker worm. The blight in quinces and pears may in the same way be resisted; he recommended the ploughing lute, in the fall, when the insects are dormant, ani liable to be finally inahimated by frost—perhaps when grasshop- pers are abundant, a drove of turkeys amongst them would be the best army of annihilation. Col. Cuarke produced a most venomous and de- structive animalecula with four wings and a sting, that piercing any tree’s bark would diffuse poison through the entire peach plant; chloride of lime and other processes were suggested, but none with any positive certainty. 7 Professor Marzs wished the subject to be defer- red until Mr. Halsey could pieete In the mean time he suggested the experiment of Planlemon, of boring a hole in the tree and plugging it with salt. The Paesin observed that brimstone had been used in that way with success, but he apprehended danger from rotting by perforation. Protessor Mares contended that no salt infusion could be dangerous if it was derived from iron or Ga tae 4 + ; veral very valuable topics of information and instruction were suggested by Professor Mapes upon subjects though not directly combined with the par- ticular objects of the ovcasion, but were calculated to enlarge the scope of future investigation and promote indirectly the purposes of the club— amongst others, he proposed the cultivation of to- bacco, asa_ fit subject tor the next meeting; but a piudent desire on the part of the members, to adapt their subjects to the seasonable requirements of the firmers, induced them to substitute the proposed more important topic, ‘*The best. method of pre- paring ground for the reception of fall wheat.” Mr. McDonatn produced a specimen of cotton, raised last year upon his own plantation, in Alabama, which, for Virgin purity of whiteness and flexibility | of texture, he aunounced as commanding three | cents above the common staple. fear Cant | The Georgetown College. | James Gorpon Bennerr, Esq. In your Herald of ‘Tuesday, you have very gener- ously offered Radi columns to the Jesuits, or their trends, for the purpose of refuting the numerous calumnious reports that have been circulating con- cerning them during the last ten or twelve days. We difler from you in your opinion, that those re- ports have been of such a character as to demand a public refutation. We have considered that they bore with themselves an ample contradiction in the bungling,ridiculons manner inwiich they have been circulated. One correspondent would lead us to im- agine that the whole Jesuitical body was under the immediate control and supervision of the Pope, | whereas, His Holiness very rarely, if ever, inter- feres with the interaal arrangement, or ceaduct of the order. Again, we are informed by one of those wiseacres, that Mr. Verhagen, the present Provincial at Georgetown, was sent over to this country some ten or twelve years ago, to establish an espionage, (which he has ever since maointained,) from his residence at St. Louis, over his brethren at Georgetown. If Lord Ross's telescope had been in existence all that time, we should be firmly impressed that it was the associate of his vigi- lance. “Some people have a natural tendency to be | crotchetty, and we believe the corps reportorial, at Washington, has the crotchet of Anti-Jesuitism as firmly planted in their brains, as ever did the hero of the Jairy tale have the sleeping pia in hiseye. We refer to that portion of them paiticularly, whose names do not figure on the list of invitations to the pleasant col- loge celebrations, ex. gr. the correspondent of the Ex- press last week, on the subject of the Revolution in the College. We give, as a reply to these numerous reports, the information we have derived from one of the gentle- men connected with the College. ‘There are to be in all three changes in the officers of the College, that is among those in ay responsible situation. This was the determi- nation at the time these reports commenced, and we be- lieve since, and there is every probability that so it will remain. Among the teachers and minor officers of the college, there may be such changes as take place every year, but nothing further. In fact there has been no more ground to excite those reports than occurs every year previous to the re-opening of the schools. It | is trae we have understood there is to be a change in the Presidency, but we attribute it to the fect that Mr. Mul- ledy’s appointment aboutjsix months since, on the depar- ture of Mr. Ryder, was only a temperary one, to termi- nate when Mir. Melilroy, the present appointee, should be relieved from his duties at Frederick, Md. _ As tothe character of the new President, we believe, ifever a man were calculated to make himself esteemed and revered by a community, Mr. Metliroy is that man. Ho has presided over a literary institution in Frederick for a number of cats, where he has enlisted the respect and affection of all who knew him. We, therefore, deny, on the authority of those gentle- The Anti-Rent Movements. | Dexa, August 17, 1845. | The Route and its Scenery—Troubles and Altrac- | tions—Public Opinion in and about Delhi, with a | Description of the Place in these Stirring Times. _The town of Delhi, whence I now write, is the ca” pital of Delaware county, and a spot to which many eyes are now directed on account of the late out- Tages in its vicinity, and its being the centre of ope. rations which have been made necessary against the anti-renters, or as they are here called—the down-renters—of this county. It requires twenty- six hours constant travel to make this place. The first part of it, that is to say, from New York to Catskill by steamboat, is done quickly and agreea- bly enough ; from Catskill, after waiting an hour, you start, at half past two o’clock at night, in a stage coach for Delhi. For seventeen mortal hours, you are rolled over a mountain road, crooked, hilly, and just irregular enough in its surface to guarantee the traveller a shaking he will notforget in a month, Ihave heard of being rolled in a barrel, but I do not think it can be a more turbulent mode of locomo- tion than travelling by the Catskill stage. But for one thing, | could not be bribed to repeat the jour- ney, with its dust, the heat of the weather, the risk of the rapid and perilous down hill Gallop, and the meet as aforesaid noticed. And what is that one thing that would atone for so many inconveniences? The scenery, sir, the scenery. [ do not know any place so like Berkshire county, in Massachusetts, whose scenery is greatly lauded, but it is still infe- rior to that seen on the Delhi and Catskill route. The road winds slong the base, or rather the side of the Catskill hills, for the whole distance ; be- times you are so elevated as to have a prospect ef the outstretched country for thirty miles. Nothin, ean exceed the beauty of the diversified surface of the land; and its hilis and valleys, groves and rivers are more thin ustully picturesque in the present season, when the crops are on the ground and wearing the golden tints of autumn’s maturity. As we pass along, the source of the Delaware river is seen hard by the road side, about fifteen miles from this place.

There isno view of it until you are right upon its borders, being encompassed by hills of a considerable altitude. ‘There were plain symp- toms of something more than common, observable even to one entirely ignorant of the peculiar state of affairs now presailing, here. Each of the three taverns—of which the town need not boast—is full, and as hard at work making money as their fellows at Saratoga. Here, however, the lodgers are coun- trymen—tarmers, who have dropped the sickle for the musket, and hurried in to defend the out- raged laws. Around and about these public houses our said irregular forces were col- lected in numerous squads, some of them with arms and accoutrements on, but the most of them without either, and in their ordinary apparel Now and again a file or two of cavalry forces would come daching up street, theirlong swords makin, an infernal clatter, and raising, dust enough to suf- focate a whole regiment. As we passed the jail, we observed it guarded by half a dozen of infantry, whilst others were going to and returning from the prison, to take up or leave off their turn of duty. In the windows above were descried here and there the taces ot more than two or three prisoners, look- ing out upon the fresh green grass and clear sky, and familiar faces of acquaintances, standing sent upon them. Itisa sudden, and it may be feared, also, a disastrous change forsome of them. I have learned that there are about thirty ‘five prisoners in jail already ; all of them are not charged with out- rage, a portion of them being taken into custody to testity against those who shall be indicted crimi- ate ‘The jail is a small building, neat outside, but far from particular within; indeed, it is more like a dirty emigrant boarding house in Orange or Washington st. im the interior, than like a county jail. Perhaps this is not easily to be avoided, where there are near forty men hurried in, without any preparation for their boarding or lodging; but at all events, they might afford to pay some old woman for sweeping the floors, the stairs and the hall, which are exceed- ingly filthy, and in strong and disereditable contrast to the outside of the building. | white and spruce as it is—just as if turned out ofa great big bandbox.

Woe unto ye, Scribes, Pharisees, hypo- crites, who do it—if you donot look sharp the down- renters will come and sweep you all out, without distinction. At the present time there are two or three squads out to take prisoners, and others are talked of as be- ing about to start. . A great and creditable alacrity is shown by the farmers generally to give their services in support of jaw and order. I asked two or three persons, in order to ascertain public feeling in relation to this business, whether they feared an attack by the anti- renters, at anytime, on the town? "The reply was, that they did not, in the slightest degree, fear it, as every one had showed himself ready to turn out—even those who were known tobe tainted with anti-rentism, were as ready to do so as any one else, om the moment the news arrived of the Deputy Sheriff, Steel, being shot. Several meetings have been held over the country forthe purpose of expressing an opinion on that la- mentable occurrence. At all of them, as far as I can learn, there was a very deep and strong depre- cation of that act, and the most earnest call made upon the State authorities to interfere, at once and etiectually, with promises, on the part of these as- semblies, to co-operate, as far as their respective ability would permit, in bringing to condign punish. ment the perpetrators of these erimes. I must say, that, whatever be the depth of the people’s grief for the victim of the late outrage, Mr. Steel, it does not show itself to half the extent | would expect, or ac- counts would warrant one to look for. I do not wish, nor do I mean, to hint, that there is nota very correct and proper feeling prevalent among his sur- viving acquaintances ; but it is characteristic of the cold, and mentally restrained race who people this country, that but one week after a respectable and respected public officer, a good neighbor and cour- teous citizen, has been left in his grave—murdered in the assertion of principle, and in a cause, for whose success all are interested here, or profess to be so—there is not a word of allusion to his name, nota breath of sympathy for the widow, nota vow of vengeance on the heads of the wretches who 2 dren.

I have never yet before seen a population so in- dustrious, sober and honest as this { know many, very many young men, who were the veriest vaga- bonds in the States, who are here respectable and doing exceedingly well. Our crops the past year (184) have been most bountiful, and we have not only a full supplyfof wheat for our consumption,but a large quantity for exportation. Large numbers of cattle are rsised here, which are never fed or sheltered, Many men haverfrom three to four hun- dred head of cattle. Sheep canbe had here in any desirable number, as the H. 3B. Company have a large Hock, and many private individuals have them aye this reaches you, perhaps you will have learn- ed that we have a regular government in most suc- cessful operation in Oregon. When I first reached this region, about a year ago, I thought any attempt at organization might be premature. I had not, however, been here long, before it was conceived that a goverment of some kind was inevitable. It grew out of stern, invincible necessity. Our com- mercial and business transactions were considerable. Difficulties were dailyoccurting between individuals in relation to their “claims,” the estates of deceased persons were daily devoured, and helpless orphans plundered ; crimes were committed, and the base and unprincipled, the reckléss and turbulent, were hourly trampling upon the rights of the honest and peaceable. A civilized population, numerous as we were, could not exist without government. The thing was impossible. We, therefore, organized + government of our own. ZA We had.no money, no means—I was a member of the LegisMture. I had most of the business to do We passed a tax bill, appointed an assessor, and per- mitted every man not to pay a tax, ithe chose so to do, butif he did not pay, being able, we debarred him from suing in the courts asplaintiit. At the same time we passed acts to protect all bona fide settiers in theirclaims to the amount of 640 acres. | The tax bill operated like a charm. Nearly all the whole population paid without hesitation. We selected a tall East Tennessean, Joseph L. Meek. for our sheriff. He had been in the mountains with Wm. L. Sublette for eight or ten years, is exceed- ingly good humored, very popular and as brave a’ Julius Cwsar. The. very first warrant he had de- livered to him, was issued for the apprehension of a very quarrelsome and turbulent man, who resisted Meek with a broad-axe, but Meek, presenting a cocked pistol, tock the fellow, nolens volens. The next, and only case of serious resistance to our laws, was on the part of Joel Turnham, of Mo., son of May Turrham, of Clay County. He had assaulted an individual, and a warrant was issued by a justice of the peace. Turnham was himself constable, and John Edmonds was deputized to arrest him ham resisted with a large butcher’s knif monds had a pistol with six barrels well charged — He shot Turnham four times, the last ball entering ibove the temple, whea he immediately expired These areall the obstructions to the administration of justice we have had, and in Edmond’s case, he was fully justifiable in killing Turnham, even if he had no warrant, as T. assaulted him first, and pursued him with great violence to the last. We have now five counties, and two terms of the circuit court in each county in every year. We have but.one junge, who discharges the duties of probate judge, chancellor, and what not; in fact we have only as yet cireuit courts and justices of the peace.— Our government was intended only as provistonal, to exist until some regular government could be established. We adopted the statute laws of Iowa, where applicable to our condition and not modified by our Legislature. We are now waiting most anxiously for the result of Pakenham’s mission, and if the two governments have not settled the question between them, the moment that factis known, there will be one univer- sul movement made. A regular convention will be held and a constitution adopted (republican no doubt,) and an independent government put in ope: ration at once. Necessity will compel us to the step. The population ofthis country are no doubt sirous to live under the goverament of the United must and will do it for ourselves. “ The none here are worn out by delay, and their condition becomes | every day more intolerable.

Tue Deraware Ourrace —Dernt, August 15th, 1845 —Further and Important Arrests and Di closures.—Nothing of consequence has transpired he since Wednesday, until this morning Mr. McKennan, of Masonville, captured three more men yesterday, who were on their way to Pennsylvania. hey had ‘previ- ously been arrested in the town of Tomp'ins and dis charged for want of evidence to detain them. Mr. Mc- Kennan did not like their appearance and conduct, and so told them they must come along with They as- sented, and before they had come three miles, they be- gan to make disclosures. It seems from these disclosures that one of them, Northrop, was one of the principal chiefs, and had sixty three men disguised and armed under his. command, on | the day Steele was shot. He says Warren W. Scudder, of Roxbury, (the man for whose apprehension the Sherifl | has offered a reward of $300) was the commander-in. | chief on that day, and the man who presented his sword | to Sherii! Wright's breast, when W. was walking in | front of the Indian line. | The number of Indians in the field on that day he states at 220, and the number stationed in the woods, to cut off the horses of the posse, at 40—all armed. | [tis ascertained also who it was that warned out the | Indians on the 29th of July, the day first set down for the sale. Northrop says the man was ongag d three days | in warning them out—that they were ordered out at the request of Earll, to prevent the sale of his property—and that they went to Earll’s house, after the sheriff had left, and t ject told them the sale was adjourned to Au 7th. This man (Northrop) is very penitent—says he expects | to lose his life, but that he shall tell all—and he has dis- | closed more important facts than any one who has yet | testified. He corroborates Wright's statements and tes- timony in every respect. Neither Hilton, Kittle’ or Scudder are yet taken.
