Tlici o is still a (llllorciicn of opinion In this country as to tho policy of deep plow ing. Tho shallow plowing advocates claim llio acquisition to llielr ranks of men who havo long advocated deep plowing. Wo bcllcvo that tho difference of opinion, and tho results of experiments, is largely duo to lack oT knowledge as lo liow and when deep plowing should bo performed. In England, a Jlr. Kvcrshcd li:is been oppos ing deeper cultivation ol.tho holl. Mr. Mcehl thinks lie is (hereby doing much harm to the cause of agricultural progress, and insists that (ho piesenl cultivation of tho soil is loo shallow. Wo copy Mr. Mechi's interesting ailicle. IIo says : I say ".soil" becauso in Xaturo it comprises what we call soli and subsoil. Tho moro proper definition would bo "disturbed and undisturbed soil." Why plants or trees prefer tho upper and disturbed soli is ob vious. Disturb, roralo and manure tho subsoil, and then tho plant or lico will multiply its fibres of joots in that lower soil, especially as tho surfaco becomes moro healed and dry. I havo a Milking proof o( this in my yard, whero thero was a piggery. I filled up tho spaco some six feet witii ordinary clay soil, and planted on it soino ancubas, laurels, bays, arbor vitro and box, In order to hido a slablo wall. Al though tho plants wcro small, their growth has been so rapid and luxuriant that tliey aro from ten lo fifteen feet high, and they absolutely wedgo or press oaeh other with a development which surpihes, and also proves that if tho lower soil Is both distuib cd and amply manured, a small surface spaco is sulllclent to maintain an Immense vegetablo growth. They liavo found in tho deeper soil the needful food in somo drop pings from tho ancient piggery. As re gards the. removal or transplanting of fruit trees, it is only another proof ol tho necess ity for moro deeply disturbing and manur ing tho soil. By removing them after hav ing exhausted tboir surfaco food they thus go to a new supply, and prospcraccordlng ly. Tho removal would not bo necessary if they had an ancient piggery or well ma nured soli lo feed on deep below tho sur faco. Said my balllll'to mo this morning, "Do you know why theso cabbages don't grow as they generally do ?" I said "No." "Well," ho replied, "becauso wo omitted to follow tho plow with a second ono going somo Inches deeper. Wo wcro busy, and could not sparo tho horses, and now tho roots aro on tho untitled bottom." Tho fact is, tho plowmon aro always too glad (o oseapo subsoillng, becauso it is harder work. Tho loss in crop by late and shallow plowing is, taking tho wholo coun try, something fcarlui. Tho roots of crops soon strike through tho thin furrow-slico and como on to what I call a paved floor, and then tho palo and sickly plants give ovldcnco of their uncomforlahlo and un profitable condition. Many a mangel crop has failed to mako its appearance, becauso tho thin furrow sllco lias been dried through. Wo novcr miss our plant of mangel, becauso tho soil is deeply doublo or trench plowed beforo winter, and It thus holds and gives moisture, as well as being a good filler in wet weather. I allribulo tho generally satisfactory ap pcaranco of all my crops lo very deep cul tivation, and I would mako It much deep er had I steam power, keeping, however, tho lower soil still under tho older culti vated surface. I consider it both a national mlsroituuo and disgraco that our general agricultural plo crust is only as thick as an old family Illblo. It ought lo bo as deep as our tables aro high, and It is so In tho case of Mr. Campbell, of IJnscot, who, alter draining four feet deep, cultivates with thirty-liorso power engines llilrly-slx Inches deep. Wo aro now about to manuro and plow our land for transplanting cabbago aflor grcon tares aro mowed off. Aftor spread ing twenty loads per aero ol good, rich shed manuro (no rain on It), two horses will be on tho first plow, tho second one, without its broast, following in tho track of tho first ono, and drawn by four strong horses. That Is tho way to grow maximum crops. Drain ing, whoro rcfjulred, should prceedo doop cultivation. It should always bo rcmombcrcd that wo cannot manuro tho subsoil through tho lop soil, for a fow iuchos doop of tho jailor havo tho power to arrest and fix a much larger quantity of manurlul elements (especially ammonia, phosphato of lime, and potash) than Is over applied In ordinary farming. This Is why clover and other deep-rooted plants can only bo grown at long Intorvals, for only a vory small porllon of inanurlal oloments can pass tho surfaco soil oroscapo being fixed by It. Tho raw and unaltered appcaranco of undisturbed soil lmmcdlato ly benoatu the plowed land glvos unmls takablo confirmatory ovldonco of tho fact stated. liloblg and Way oxplaln tho eaupo of this fixing. It Is thereforo quito certain that If wo do sire to manuro tho subsoil, tho manuro must bo Incorporated with tho subsoil, or tho subsoil must bo Intermixed with llio surfaco soil. Tho Rov. H. Smith of Lois Wocdon, used to throw nsldo tho cultiva tion soil and Incorporate tho manuro with tho itndlslurbcd3ubsoll.-iiraJJVciw York- ti.titui' itur.its.t.xti t il st i it cvr. TIV.ITIO.X. A I'ilW TACTS AND HINTS l'Oll TUN I.ADIKS. Tho treatment and culluro of bulbs la as slmplo and easy ai tho veriest tyro may do slro and may bo enjoyed by tho humblosl, nswcll as llio most f.ivoicd In tho land. Most, If not nil, bulbs succeed best In a light, rich soli. If the soil whero you pro poso toyourbulhi bo stiff and heavy, do not fall to procuro n barrow-load or two of sand and well-rooted manure. This should bo thoroughly mixed wllh tho soli lo n depth of fifteen Inches, and tho results will bo most astonishing nnd satisfactory. Tho majority of tho so-called Dutch bulbs aro grown In and around Haarlem In Holland, and ll Is probablo that In no olhcr part of thocaith is n soil and cllmalo so suited lo their wauls lo bo met with. All bulbs that bloom early in llio spring must, to glvo satisfaction, bo planted In tho fall of tho year, during October and No vember, and should bo planted In a dry, well enriched soil, choosing u spot whero water does not stand on tho surf ico, us tho bulbs would bo apt to rot and causo loss and disappointment. Alter tho beds aro planted, If possible, cover llio surfaco wllh adicsslng of com so manuio to the depth of six Inches, which will help lo keep out frost, and will at the miiiiu time keep the bulbs so much drlor a point to bo deshed. Tills should bo raked oil' in early spring as soon as hard frosts aio over, alid bofuro tho plants havo grown too much. All bulbs may bo planted In beds (whero tho finest elfcct is obtained), masses, groups, or as slnglo plants. It is it general custom to plant tulips, hyacinths, etc., in beds which, as llio samo ripen and decay, aio filled wllh sunimcr-llowcrlng plants, such as verbenas, petunias, phlox drumniondil, geraniums, Ac. A pretty effect may bo obtained In a circular or oval bed, by llrst planting thickly around tho outsldo a band of snowdrops ; next a heavy band of cro cus; tho center lo bo planted thickly with doublo and single) Van Tholl tulips. These as they ripen may bo all removed lo a cool, dry cellar, and the bed filled with the sum mer ornaments of 1'ie garden. Hyacinths intended for blooming in the houso should bo stalled In pols or glasses, In the month of Oclobor. If in glasses (llio most pretly, clean and ollVctlvo way,) tho glasses may bo filled with water, so that the bottom of the bulb will just touch the samo ; then place them in a com!, dark place, where they tniv remain until plenty of roots aro made. When the flower spike begins lo show itself, tliey may bo giadual ly brought to the light, Inking caro not la give them loo much heat at any lline, even afterwards, as they succeed be-t In a rather low temperature. If tho water in the glass es becomes discolored and dlity, it sliould bo poured olf and replaced with clean, soft water, which may bo icpaated as ofieu as necessary. Tho tulip will succeed in almost any good garden soil ; still, It should bo b irno in mind thai, not only tho tulip, but all bulbs, will succeed best in a liglil, rich soil. Tbo bulbs should bo p an led in Oc tober or November, in deep, well eniichcd soil, riant lliem three Indies deep, and six Inches apait, and if convenient, mulch tho bed willi coarso manure, etc., during winter llio effect, when in bloom, will be much finer. When llio plants aro through blooming they may, if desired, lie carefully lifted and replanted thickly together in any con venient spot in the ga: den, where they may remain mill! again wanted in tho fall, and the bed from whence tliey wcio moved bo filled with suninier-lloworlng plants. Some coplo prefer, when llio follago begins jo ripen, to lake them up, drylhcni, and keep them In llio house until they aio wanted again. JJriygs iO lirolhcr's Full Catalogue.

An Existing Race ok PiOMins. Dr. Sehweinrurtli, who lias travelled exten sively in Contial Africa, recently entertain ed tho lieilln Geographical Society with an account of n diminutive raeo ol' men, tho Acca, whom ho takes lo bo llio originals of tho pigmies celebrated in Grecian litera ture, agreeing with Aristollo In tho opinion that tho pigmies nl Iloinor and Herodotus wcro not altogether creatures of llio imag ination. Dr. Seliweinrurlh mado diligent inquiry wherever ho wen. as t llio oxlstouco or dwarfish races of men. On tho upper Mlo ho was told er men "not over three red in slaluro, wearing whllo beards, who wore skilled In elephant hunting, and who sold Ivory to foreign traders." Rut It was at thecourtof Munsa, klngof the Mombullu, that ho first saw an individual or this di minutive race. "One morning," says lie, "the cam) rung with a joyous shout as my pcoplo brought In a curious, timid, llttlo man, tho palpable embodiment or myths which havo been current for ever so long." lly means ef gifts and kind usage tho pigmy was induced lo take a seat, when his meas ure and pot trait was taken. Ho slated that ho was llio head of a family, living hair an hour's journey from llio capital; that Ills tribe nro called Acca, and that their country lies south of Mombnttu : that they havo been conquered by tho latter, and settled In the neighborhood of llio royal residence. His height was one meti'o (llilrty-niuo Inches) and albeit lie had a pendent belly and vory slender shanks, ho performed Incrediblo feats of agility. On tbo noxt day several others of Ids tribe, induced by tho promlso of gills, paid our traveller a visit, and they, loo, wero meas ured and had their portraits taken. It Is to bo rcgrellcd, however, that during llio on tiro three weeks' stay of tho Doctor at Munas couit, ho never had llio good lort- uno to sco a pigmy woman. Rut why did ho not go to tho settlement and visit tho ladles himself? Tho Acca are noted war riors, notwithstanding llielr dlminutlvo stature. It happened during Schwcin rurth's slay at the couit that kin,- Mimicry, csculed by several hundred Ac;a warriors, paid a visit to his brother Munsa, bringing him a shaio of plunder takon In a recent campaign. Tikllikl (men who understand war) fought sham battles ror tho entertain ment or tho traveler. Tho only domestic animal among tho Acca Is tho common barn-yard fowl, and it is worthy of remaik that an ancient mosaic at Naples pictures tho pigmies lu company with such fowls.
