We yeatcrdar paid a flrinjt visit to the packing
booae ofSehenck k Denise, on Boundary gtreet,
and found them very bogy in preparing for active
operations which win soon begin. Tbcv thie
fall put up a largr addition, which hafl been ad
mirably fioiaJic'd off, supplied with several large
furnace* for rendering lard, kettles, coolers, re
ceivers, kc., 4c., and admirably adapted to the
purpoae. Their buildings arc very extensive—
their bulk room* are two hundred feet in length
by perhaps fifty in width. Their packing rooms
are of about equal extent, while their acalding,
dreaaing and engine rooms art' large and conve
niently arranged. A steaming apparatus of the
moat approved description convert* the offal, or
that part of it susceptible of being converted, in
to oil. A large smoke-house adjoins the packing
house.
We found every part of their immense estab
lishment as neat and clean and as free from offen
sive odors, we had almost said as a ladies parlor.
All Uie hair, blood and offensive matter is hauled
away. Their pens have all been rebuilt and ar
ranged with good floors. Messrs. Schenck &
Deuitse have taken great p:iinn to guard it gainst
fire. Their buildings are of stone and brick and
surrounding their engines are nuuwivc walU of
stone, Rome three feet in thickness with no wood
en surface anywhere exposed, where there is a
liability to firo. Theirs is really one of the best
Arranged, best regulated, and modt extensive
houses we have ever examined, going far ahead
of anything we had supposed existed in this city.
Although we have not seen tliem strike a lick, we
are ready to vouch from what we have seen,
thnt any number of porkera can be put through
the several processes, from the pen to the bbl.,in
a style unsurpassed, anywhere outside of Bur
lington.
And as a large business is very generally anti
cipated, wc presume their abilities, so far
as speed is concerned, will be very thoroughly
tried this winter.
Wc shall embrace the first leisure lionr to vis
it the other packing houses in the city.

The reader's attention is asked to the address,
the publication of which will be concluded to
morrow. It is the one over which so much hub
bub was raised at the time of its delivery. It was
falsely asserted by the Gazette, whose editor was
en the ground, that Mr. H. abused the confidence
of the Society by delivering a "Political" Know
Nothing address. No one else made the as
tounding discovery. As the Gazette has since
its publication, reiterated the assertion, thus ad
mitting the correctness of the printed copy, we
now present it that our readers may judge of the
truthfulness of that paper. But, outside of any
controversial matter, the address is an able one

GERMANT.—Not the least im­
portant item of Intelligence received to-day by
the Pacific relates to the action of the Germanic
Diet at Frankfort upon the claim of the nobles
of Wurtcmburg, to be re-instated in the enjov
ment of all the oppressive baronical privileges
which they renounced in 1848, when struck bv
the panic of the revolution. They have suffi
ciently recovered from that panic to" demand that
the old state of things shall be restored. Ac
cordingly they make an application to this effect
to the Diet at Frankfort, and we have the news
to-day that the Diet took eognizauce of the af
fair in its sitting of the 2t'.th of October, and ad
mitted the claim of the nobles.
Accordtng to the Diet, this step is indiapensabl.
for putting the laws of the kingdom of Wurtem
berg in unison with the federal.
Thus we see that the Diet at Frankfort, is noth
ing more nor less than a great Juggernaut in the
hands of |rinces and nobles of Germanv, for the
purpose of crushing out the liberties of'the peo
ple. Its action in reference to the nobles of
Wurtcmburg, is a long stride in the reactionary
movement, which seeks to brush away all traces
of the revolution of 1848. This movement will

Btftfc* ih* Tova Stat* Fnir held at Fairfitld, on
tAe 1WA of September, 1835.
3fr. President, and Ftlioir-citizcn* of Iowa:—
I am not an orator. My business does not re
quire that I should be proficient as.a public
speaker. The lawyer and the clergyman study
and practice those arts which enable them to
most effectually reach the hearts and convince
the minds of their hearers. I am simply a me
chanic, and accustomed to the labor of the shop,
hcnce should I fail to speak in glowing thoughts
and burning words, you will not be disappointed.
Speech making is like ollother tradef,it requires
practice. This much for myself—one word for
you.
My friends, you have assembled here in that
spirit of progress which characterizes the age
in which we live.- Improvement is the order of
the day, and you in common with all other class
es of your countrymen feel the iiupeling influen
ced that drive you unwind and upward in the
mnrch of progression. But a few years since,
and you as agriculturists, were willing to plod
on as your fathers had done before you. You
plowed the ground three or four inches deep,
and thought not that the sources of vegetable
production came deeper from the earth. Now
you know the deeper you plow, the more rapid,
the more vigorous and the more matured will be
your vegetable productions, for it is a fact prac
ticably demonstraied, that all plants, in a deep
and finely pulverized soil, receive sustenance
from a depth of soil, eqaul to the height the
article cultivated, usually grows above the sur
face. Wheat that grows four or five feet high,
under a proper cultivation sends its roots or at
least its attractive powers for collecting
the means of production, 1111 equal distance in
the body of the earth, so with all other vege:a
ble productions. Without this there cannot be
a perfect maturity of grain, or o-lter productions.
Hcnce the practice of sub-.-oil plowing was intro
duced. Formerly you paid but little at
tention to the quality of seed you sowed or
planted. Il it was corn—grains of corn were
8ufficient-if wheat, grains of wheat were sufficient
—if potatoes, the semblance of that popular veg
etable was sufficient. Now v ith what care the
intelligent farmer select* his reed corn—desirous
of obtaining thut variety which is most, produc
tive iu its nutritive qualities, and produces the
largest result from a given quantity of ground.—
Formerly you paid but little attention to the im
provement of your breed of cattle. The science
of animal improvement was unheeded. Now,
the exhibition before you demonstrates that you
have learned that by certain crosses you can se
cure a much increased size at a much earlier day
—more symmetry—more beauty—and the more
essential quality, more profit. Look at your
Middlesex and Leicester hogs, and compare them
with the long-legged, slab-sided, alligator-look
ing animals of 20 years ngo. Look at the broad
forms, the heavy proportions of your full-blood
and thorough-bred cattle, in comparison with the
broad horns, and guant looks of a few years ago.
Your horses your sheep, and even your poultry,
all indicate the agricultural improvement of the
age. An English writer states, that "about the
year 1700, the average weight of oxen killed for
the London market, was 370 pounds—of calves
50 pounds—of sheep 27 pounds." The average
weight at present, is at least of oxen 900 pounds,
of calves 150 pounds, sheep 80 pounds. It
would be a most interesting item in the agricul
tural knowledge of this country, if we possessed
the data from which a comparison could be made
of our progress in this respect. But the farmer
has no record, and tradition alone is his source
of knowledge.
Your presence here to-dav, is to still advance
in this progression—to learn from each other, by
comparing your respective theories and practices
what is the best plan of cultivation. One sows his
wheat broad-cast—another with a drill. They
compare the results and adopt that which has
been most successful. One plows, sub-soils, har
rows nnd rolls his grounds, and another simply
plows and harrows with a big brush. The result
is too palpable not to follow the former course.—
Thus by personal intercourse you learn from
each other. True, there is another means by
which this same information might be obtained,
but there is I regret to say, too great a prejudice
existing in the minds of many in regard to it—
for if a farmer of Iowa, were to write an article
for the excellent agricultural paper, published in
your own State, the Iowa Farmer, many would
read it, and however true might be the facts de
tailed, and however plain be the course describ
ed, to produce the result announced, they
wcull throw it aside, and say it was nothing but
"hco!«-farming—men that write for the papers
do no work—they know nothing about farming."
This is false prejudice, and should not be enter
tained. The farmer who writes lor your paper,
tells you just what.he would were he sitting at
your fireside, in social conversation, and his re
marks ought to be implicitly relied on. The law
yer has his books—the merchant qualifies him
self for his business by the study of books—the
mechanic has his publications. In them they all
find the history of the past experience of the
world, and all who have gone before them, and
those who are now operating in their respective
occupations. The lawyer enters the study of his
preceptor, aud has placed in his hands the ele
mentary expositions of the common law—com
mon justice. lie learns what the world regards
as the basis of law. He then reads the exposi
tion of this basis as recorded by the ablest minds
of the profession at the day in v.-hich they lived.
He then learns the decisions which the Courts
have given to these statutes, and commences his
profession with his mind stored with the knowl
edge of the minds which has preceded his in
his profession. He knows the result of all past
experience, and he is thus prepared to take hold
of his profession fully posted as to the course to
be pursued which will insure success in a just
cause. But how is it with the farmer. He re
ceives a limited education in the common, very
common school- -lie learns to read, write and the
rudiments of Arithmetic. Although it is settled
he is to be a farmer, in his education there is
scarce an idea in regard to his business. lie is
not taught one word in regard to the basij, of
successful agriculture—a knowledge ofthe quali
ties of the component parts of the soil upon
which he is to engage. He knows nothing of
agricultural chemistry. He should be able to
analyze the soil—he should know the ingredients
composing the different kinds of grains and veg
etables, thereby enabling him to determine, more
definitely and certainly the adaptedness of the
one to the growth and maturity ofthe other—he
should be able to determine, in a great measure,
the quality of soils by the common appearance
they present, and the natural productions which
grow upon them. This, fn brief should be the
education of the young farmer. Education of
the right kind is essential to the agriculturist as
it is to any other profession or avocation in life
and until this education is acquired the farmers
of this country will not occupy that high posi
tion they ought to occupy in securing the com
mon prosperity of all and of our free institutions.
Arieulture, however, my friends, is not a
special theme fot eloquence, or the display of
rjietorical pictures. It has an importance that
rises above the mere flight of imagination—
beautiful language, and finely rounded sentences.
As such I shall treat it aud I shall be fortunate,
if in thus presenting myself before you, as the
humble advocate of this great interest, I shall
be able to keep from your minds the fact that I
am not an agriculturist. We are all disposed to
look with (listrust upon those who step aside
from their ordinary avocations, nnd attempt to
instruct us in the line of our own business. If a
carpenter attempts to instruct a blacksmith, the
latter rejects such a course with derision. If a
lawyer should presume to advise a physician as
to the treatment of a lever he would be treated
with contempt. I am aware of all these preju
dices, but notwithstanding theirexistence, I hope
to be able to give you a few thoughts which may
not be unprofitable, although I have not the
honor of tilling the soil.
Politicians may speculate upon the influence
which free institutions, or a partizan administra

Above all other governments in the world, ours
should foster and encourage agriculture. Look
for one moment to Europe. In the Kingdom of
Prussia, there are five agricultural colleges, iii
which arc taught by theory and practice, the
higest branches of Science, together with culture
and improvement of the soil—of agricultural
schools of a more elementary characler there
are ten—there arc also seven schools devoted to
instruction in the cultivation of flax—two spe
cially devoted to instruction in the management
of meadow lands—one for instruction in the
management of sheep, and there are 45 model
farms, intended to serve for introducing better
modes of agriculture. In all 71 public establish
ments for agricultural education, and all these
institutions receive aid directly from the govern
ment, and most ot them are under the superin
tendence of officers appointed by the govern
ment. Prussia is a monarchy with 15,ooo,000of
people. The United States a Republic with
25,000,000 of people. The former has 71 agri- 1
cultural schools—the latter not one.
Belgium, since 1820, has made large appropri
ations for the encouragement of agriculture. i
France, under several administration*, has
been liberal in the support of this great interest,
and particularly in the rearing and improving of
sheep and cultivation of the sugar beet. "She
has seventy-five agricultural schools under gov
crnnient patronage. To one of these she made
an appropriation in 1S49, of nearly half a mil- 1
lion ot dollars. Another has already graduated
six hundred well educated agriculturists, who
immediately found honorable and lucrative situ
ations at the head of their professions."
Despotic Jiiwsta, has ,3 of these schools,
some of which are of a high order.
Spain, too, for many years, has had flocks of
sheep, paying the greatest attention to their im
provement, and sending lhcm gratuitously to the
farmers of the country.
Great Britain has to some extent given aid to
her many agricultural associations, and in Eng
land more especially, has the patronage ofthe
government been most salutary upon her ru
ral prosperity. In Ireland, that "bright isle of
the ocean" the benefits of those schools have
been marked. There, by the rotation of crops,
and improvements founded upon scientific prin
ciples, much of the land which was considered
worn out by bad tillage has been redeemed, 1
and no-" bears most prolific crops. The 'bogs of

nation have by a system of underdraining been
You may inquire why it is, that whilst the gov
ernments of Europejiavc been thus liberal in the
promotion of our favorite interest, that our gov
eminent, which should be the model of all oth
ers in this respect, has been so regardless of its
duty In reply permit me to say, that in Ett
rope, those who make the laws and mark out the
policy of the government are the landholders
those most interested in the promotion of this
cause. In this country such is not the fact. The
President and the members of his cabinet are
lawyers and not farmers. Who are vour mem
bers of Congress Are they fanners or mechan
ics, or arc they lawyers? Who exert the con
trolling influence in your Statu legislatures'1 Is
it the farmers or mechanics I think not. I say
this in no disrespect to the members of the le
gal profession. As a people we owe much to the
members of the legal profession. In our glo
rious struggle for independence, tln-y were fore
most in asserting anil defending tho'riglits of the
colonies, and in the organization of our govern
ment they assisted in laying the foundation stones
and have contributed much to the glorious su
perstructure which has since been erected there
on. I have no disposition to draw distinctions
between our citizens but it must be admitted by
all, that the men who make the laws and control
the government act upon those measures with
which thev are most conversant, and feel the
most interest. If a large number of the mem
bers of Congress had heen agriculturists—identi
fied with the cultivation of the soil—their pri
vate means invested in lands, and expecting their
children to continue in the same connection, our
government would long since have established an 1
agricultural Department with an importance
equal to that of the Department of War, or of
the Navy. The people would have had the ad- I
vantages of extensive importations of the most i
improved breeds of cattle and horses, and other
domestic animals, and the importations of the
endless varieties of grain, that are cultivated in
other portions of the world. Wc would have 1
had model Farms, and agricultural schools, as
well as military and naval schools and everything
that could promote the prosperity of the' coun
try would have the place of those measures
which now operate so disastrously to our agri- I
cultural interests. i
In what I may say in this eonncction, I dis
claim all political motives, or being influenced by
partizan prejudice. It matters not now, whetli
er I am the friend or opponent of the principle
of Protection to American iudustrv, for I lay
down the broad principle, that if "pretection is
right for one intercut it is for another. I11 other
words, if it is right to protect the manufacturer I
it is right to protect the agriculturist. Will not
this proposition be assented to bv every one
present? I think it will. Conceding that this
question of adjusting the tariff of duties upon all
articles imported into this country, from foreign
ports is difficult—yet upon general principles i
there can be no difference of opinion as to the
justness of equal protection or freedom to
all interests. If this be true, whv was the I
celebrated Reciprocity Treaty of the late Con
gress adopted By that treaty, all the agricul
tural products of Canada are admitted to our
ports free of duty, coming in direct competition
with the farmers of all the north-western States.
When the farmer from Iowa sends his wheat to
the eastern market, he will find the agent of the
Canada farmer there ready to compete with him.
The manufacturer of New" England holds on to
his protection, and yet goes into Canada market
to buy the produce which sustains his laborers,
free of duty. Have you marked the slight dif
ferenee between the price of flour in New York
and Boston, and the western lake towns? It
scarcely defrays the expense of transportation.
I admit the construction of railroads has had
much to do with this equalization of prices, hut
the great reason is that Canada wheat comes in
free of duty. Railroads to some extent, equaliz
es the price of sugar, but take off the dutv now
paid on sugar and let the West India Islands
come in competition with our southern friends,
and what will be the price in New Orleans. The
difference will at least be equal to the amount of
duty paid. This Reciprocity treaty includes al
most every article of northern agricultural pro
duct, and come* in direct competition with the
products of tbe farmers of Iowa, Illinois, Indi
ana and Ohio. I again disclaim the intention of
holding any political party responsible for tne
passage of this Reciprocity Treatv for during its
pendency in Congress there was not a whig or
democrat raised his voice in defence of the agri
cultural interests which were sacrificed by it.
Thus in addition to our government having
failed to perform its duty to tit,- great agrienlltt
ral interests of the country, it has added injurv
to neglect. This brings me to another branch
of this subject, and that is the remedy for these
evils. It can only be done in one way. and that
is by the farmers gi»in^ their attention to tbe

and the c\|ense of great treasure, our arms have
extended ottr territory and political power. But
look at the vast appropriations made bv Congress
each year to sustain these two deportments of
the Government,—amounting to an annual stun
of not less than $30,ooo,oi)(.i. Then inquire
what that siirnc government has done to advance
or promote that more important interest—agri
culture? Your inquiries will be in vain, for the
response will be nothing absohitelvnothing!—
Light houses can be built upon the eastern sea
board—thousands of dollars can be expended
annually to beautify the grounds around thecap
itol—expeditions can he fitted out to explore the
Dead Sea, and the reports of the officers making
such explorations can be published in expensive
and costly form, to be distributed to the favor
ites of those in power. Millions can be appro
priated to sustain a school at West Point to ed
ucate our sons in the arts of war—vessels can be
built and maintained at a great expense to qual
ify our sons lor the naval service. But whenev
er the proposition to foster and advance the
great agricultural interests of the counti v is
made in Congress, it is lost sight of iu the dis
cussion of far less Important snhjects. In short
our government has utterly, shamefully neglect
ed its duty in regard to this great question of
agriculture, while it has in too inanv instances
patronized with a lavish and even a r-rckless
hand, oilier and less important subjects.—
Notwithstanding the fnct, that Gen. Washington,
in his first annual address to the first Congress,
and every successive President from that day to
this, has called the attention of Congress toft,
and urged the necessity of devising some means
to promote this interest, yet every attempt has

We have thus endeavored to present our hum
ble opinious of the importance of Agriculture,
nnd the duty of the government to sustain it.
We perhaps might as well stop here, for we told
you before that we came not here to instruct
you in the details of practical husbandry but
simply to arouse a feeling in behalf of that great
interest. I may be indulged however in the re
lation of a few facts which have come under mv
own observation, of the practical benefits of im
proved husbandry. In the county where I re
side, for many years a dissipated, indolent man
owned a farm, autl for many yc rs cultivated a
certain field in corn. The land was originally
about equal in fertility with your best uplands
here but by plowing it year after year about
three inches deep, and planting it in "corn, it be
came so poor that five or six bushels of corn per
acre was the result. It was considered worth
less. An Eastern farmer purchased it—ploughed
it six inches deep and sub-soiled it ubout six inch
es deeper—put it in clover—next year turned it
under with a good coat of top dressing, planted
it in corn, and gathered from it eighty bushels
per acre. Another instance, a farmer had upon
his farm a swamp, or a hillside that was made so
swampy by springs that within my recollection
it could not lie crossed by a horse without his
being swamped down. The trees were cleared
from it some years ago, and the surface dried up
so that a sod of grass grew over it. The owner
finally ditched it with open ditches upon cach
side and ends, with oue or two blind ditches
through the middle. He kept it in gras.sn num
ber of years, and it became so dry, that he coii
cluded to plough it nnd plant it in corn. He
did so, and at the Wayne County Fair, be re
ceived the premium for 137 bushels lrom one
acrc.
For some years previous to 1850, there was
not, to my knowledge, oue single thorough bred
animal in our county. Wc got up a county Fair
—commenced talking about the improvements in
agriculture, and particularly iir regard to cattle,
sheep and hogs. Now there is in that same
county at least one hundred head of thorough
bred cattle, which are worth at least £5o,itoo.—
The number of high graded cattle or full bloods,
has been largely increased, and their vah/Sover
the same number of common stock, about ten
to one.

made tillable, and in one instance, seven liun
dred bushels of potatoes are said to have
been grown upon one acre of redeemed bog I
land.
I might detain you with the recital of many
other incidents of benefits which lmve resulted
under my own observation, but doubtless simi
lar circumstances have transpired within your
knowledge.

Before I conclude this part of my addrcsss,
permit me to say a few words to the voting men
of this audience and of Iowa. Although I am
not much of your senior ii: years, 1 have seen
much of life, and the avocations which men pur
sue. To those of you who are about determin
ing upon your course in life—the business vou
are to pnrsne, I beg of you to consider well
before yon leave the farm for ritv life the
healthful employment of agriculture for the du
ties of an office or the counting room. I know
that parents have much influence, and justly, too,
in th^selections of their sons avocations, nnd it
is too frequently the ease that an over-fond pa
rent thinks he discovers superior intellect in a
son, and at once, in n false ambition to make
him figure in the world, dftermmes that he shall
be a lawyer, or doctor, or merchant. If he tru- ui i |»CISOIIS was iienricr.ite incendiarism, candles

But my Iriends, I desire for a few minutes to
call your attention to the more practical ojera

farmer. In this State you are blessed with a
most fertile soil—you have a genial climate, and
every influence favors a rich reward to the la
bors of the husbandman. But no soil, however
fertile, will long continue thus, unless some
equivalent is returned, for that which is taken
from it. If it is. year after year, required to give
