Evory science, every art, has its theory and practico, the principles of one defining the rules which shall regulate tho dotaila of tho other. Sometimes these aro written out clearly and serve as a chart to regulato the operations of the practitioner, but oftener thoy aro unwritten, like the English consti tution, and liable to much difference of opinion in their definition and application. Perhaps no art offers a finer field for such a systematization than agriculture. Based on the tangible facts of nature, its principles are capablo of classification, and its truths nnd errors of easy separation. Many are its axiomsas-tnaiiptrtabto-M.thoao of mathe matics; and as many its contradictions, as easily tested, and the error eliminated from the truth. And why is It to-day pursued with such a reckless disregard of principles, and many ot its acknowledged truths over ridden to the irjjury of tho former? AH admit that the careful and thorough (ultivation of a few acres of land is produc ,ivo ot more profit than the nogligent treat ment of many. Yet who of those who road (his article will rosolvo that next year shall free his tilled ground reduced to an amount (which he can handle with absolute thorough Jnes? Not a month parses but brings to us, tin your paper, a woll-writtea argument against tho toleration of weeds, showing conclusively the profit of a positive annihila tion of tho "pestilent brood" boforo they acquire ago and strength to damage tho crop. Yet how many fields do you see, as you ride along, cultivated on anything like this thorough principle Jethro Tull is admitted tohao communicated a great truth, when he proclaimed that a thorough comminution of tho soil, and a frequent stirring of it around tho growing crop, would largely promote lis aeration, and to an extent sup ply the want of manure. Vet how many fannerf", however short of fertilizers, etir the ground any oftener than is neoded to keep down the weeds? And so on through a round of violated principles. I have a neighbor who talks with great intelligence, but nevoracts with thoroughness, nor raises a first-class crop. 'Ihe farmer follows a rut from which ho has not tho ourago to escape Ho has so much land, and if thi3 is a good year, he nny possibly get a good'erop oti the whole. Ho his not tho courage to sell half, or to double tho area of his grass-land and put his available labor on the lialr.nco, or, if it is rough, to allow a part of it to grow up to timber to enrich Iho coxt generation. And yet, if ono-half tho present oxtont of cultivat ed land were tilled on this principle next year, ho would admit that the aggregate yield of ell the fann3 would be greatly in creased, ami with less fatigue, worry and cost. Will not our farmers ponder on these things and act? Cor. Country Gentleman. Deep ok Shallow Cui.tuiu:. Mr. Mochi has been in the habit of riiltUating wheat after tho inangfll, kohl-rabi, c.ibbigo and turnip". For tbo preliminary crop bo tube-oils deeply and macnics heavily, but for tbo subsequent wheat crop ho brocks tbo ground only with a single plowing with one pair of l nrscs. Ho finds that doep cultnre ' Ju't bofoio wheat sowing enlarges tho straw product at tho esrcnio of tho grain. Tbo jieiv f liation nf tie plii t i often vryde tti'iieic isard to its jlt'ii, yIjIIo Jtgbt 1'k Ui-p hfclds pmcraUy prodBco largely In . -s: i v And f very sojitrior quality. Ho j ..,.t Uibig 1a upport of his views as fal lows: "But in proportion as tho conditions for tho formation ot the straw became favor able, so did the quality of the seed doterlorato as the quality diminished." He cites tho practico of sorno successful farmers, who, on finding their crops too rank, trod them with men and horses. Salt stiffens the straw and checks a rank vegetation , but it should be used in moderation. He always scattered it in connection with guano. History of the First Steel Plow. At this time , when steel is coming so con spicuously into prominence, and is so rap Idly taking the place of iron for many pur poses, for which the former was considered unadapted, wo deem it not out of place to givoour readers a history of tho Jlrst solid steel plow known to have been made in the United States. Tho plow Itself is now in the office of the Manufacturers' and Merchants Exchange, 118 Main street, where it can be seon for a few days, before being sent to the Centennial. This plow was made over thirty years ago, by Air. T. E. 0. Brinly, In Sirnpsonville, Ky. As this gentleman has been requested to send the old plow to the Centennial Ex hibition, wo will accompany, it with a description of some of tho prominent points in its history. In tho year 1842 Mr. Urinly conceived the idea of making a plow of steel. Ho made the effort, not only without means or friends to rely upon, but with all the obstacles of prejudice and envy to overcome. Ho met with discouragement on all sides, and espec ially from those who were in the same busi ness, and who should have been his advo cates and friends. Plow makers reported that a steel plow could not be "Jayed" and "pointod" after it was made. One of the best makers in tho State at that time remarked to many per sons that "Brinly was crazy, and ought to be in a lunatic asylum." This manufacturer was Alfred Gawslov, of Brownsboro, Ky.j and ho was considered such a superior me chanic that his words had the effect of near ly breaking Brinly up. But with indomit able perseverance, Mr. Brinly disregarded the adverse talk, and. closing his shop for a short time, he took his faithful hammer in his hand and went from place to place tor the purpose of repointing and repairing the plows be had sold. His first attempt wasat the farm of Mr. C. B. Lewis, of Scott county, Ky. Mr. Lewis was soon convinced that his steel plows could be repaired as easily as an iron oue. and rocomraended them to all his neighbors and friends, so that in a very brief period these plows became so popular that Mr. Brinly was ongaged by Mr. Samuel Uttorback, of Midway, Ky., to mako 500 of them. Thus, by industry an'd pluck, was tho prejudice against stcol plows entirely broken down, and their value and populari ty established throughout tho country, and especially in Kentucky and tho Sonthern States. This remarkable old plow has been the recipient of many premiums. At the JJnited States Fairof 1853, Jt received a "fifty-dollar silveV medal against" tho strong est competition. The Judges, however, were selected from the best agriculturists in the country. After receiving its premium at this fair, it was presented by the maker to Col. George Hancock, who was at that time the acting and first president of the Louisville Agricultural Association, and one of the best farmers and high-toned gentlemen In Kentucky. This plow continued in the possession of Col. Hancock up to within a short time bo fore bis death, when ho came to Mr. Brinly and said: "I have your old steel plow still. I always prizo it too highly to use it much, or as I did othor plows of your make, and remembering that it was the first steel plow you ever made , I think you ought to have it, and keop it as long as you live." Ho accordingly gao it back, and Mr. Brinly keeps it as a memento ol the hurdet strugglo of his life. Some three years ago ho took it to tho Southwestern Fair Grounds, near this city, merely for exhibllioh. Sev- oral plowmakers made considerable sport of it.-Mr. Brinly stated that, although tho plow was not brought there to compete with others, yet as sorno fun was being made of it, bo would enter it in the stubble-plow class against tbo field. Tbo competition and ex citement were strong and lively, but tho old steel plow came out victorious, bearing off the blue ribbon. It shows tha mirks of Buporior workmanship, and strong evidences that it might do good work yet. Manufac turer. Prof. Huxley's Views of America. As Is generally known, perhaps, Prof.T, II. Huxley, the famous Englishman of science, is making a flying visit to this coun try. Ho was present at the recent meeting of tho Atnorican Association for the advance ment of hclenco nnd mado a brief speech showing his kindly appreciation of our coun try and our people. Ho said: Since my arrival in this country, 1 have learned o great many things, more, I think, than over before in an equal space ot time in my life. In England, we have always taken a lively interest in America; but I think no Englishman who lias not had tho good fortuno to visit Atnericvt has any real concep tion of the activity of tbo population, tho enormous distances which searato tho great centeis; and least of all do Englishmen un derstand how identical i tho great basis of oharactor on both slden of the Atlantic. An Englishman with whom I hae Leon talking since my arrival says: "I cannot find that I p.m abre.1." Tho grp.it lealurei "f your country ero pll mch a-i I am fiiniliar with in pr'H rT Ktiiliijil nnd ntlnnd. Your beautiful lluda.j l remlnd-i iii ol r. Bcolcli lake. Th mrfcSOf glftcla'lr.n lo ytmr hills i rsmlod ict of thou in Scott NU l.ltrblami. I had heard of tUa elogauoratton of your stock from tho English typo. I havo cot per ceived It. Some years ago ono of your most distinguished men of letters, equally loved and admired in England and America, ex pressed an opinion which touched English feeling somewhat keenly that there was a difference between your women and ours after reaching a certain age. He said our English women wern "beefy." That is his word, not mine. Well, I have studied the aspect of tho people that I have met hero In stoamboats and railway carriages, and I meot with Just tho same faces, tho main difference as to the men being in tho way of shaving. Though I should be very sorry to use the word which Hawthorne did, yet, in respect tp stature for fine portly women, I think the average here fully as great as on the othor side. Some pcoplo talk of tho injurious In fluence of cllniate. I havo seen no trace of the "North American type." You have among you the virtue which Is most notable among savages, that of hospitality. You take us to a bountitul dinner, and aro not quite satisfied unless wo take away with us the plates and spoons. Anothor feature has impressed itself upon me. I have visited some of your groat universities and meot men as well known in the old world as in the new. I find certain difference here. The English universities are the product of Government, yours of private, munificence. That among us is almost unknown. The general notion of an Englishman when he gets rich is to found an estate and benefit his family. The general notion of an American when fortunate is to do something for tho good of tho poople and from which benefits shall continue to How. The latter is the nobler ambition. It is popularly said abroad that you have no antiquities In America. If you talk about the trumpery of three or four thousand years of history, it is true. But, in the large sense, as referring to tlmo before man made his momentary appearance, America is the place to study the antiquities of the globe. The roality of tho enormous amount of material here has far surpassed my anticipa tion . I have studied the collection gathered by Professor Marsh, at New Haven. Tbnro is none like it in Europe, not only in extent of lime covered, but by reason of its bearing on the problem of evolution; whoroas before this collection was made, evolution was a matter of speculative reasoning, it is now a mattor of fact and history, as much as the monuments of Egypt. In that collection are the facts of succession of forms and tho history of their evolution. All that remains to bo askod is how, and that is a subordinate question. With such matters as this bsforo my mind, you will excuse me if I cannot find thoughts appropriate to this occasion. I woul J that I might have offered something moie worthy; but I hope that your associa tion may do what the British association is doing may sow tho seeds of ecientifio in quiry in your cities and villages, whence shall arise a process of natural selection by which those minds best fitted for the task may be led to help on the work in which we aro interested. Again I ifhank you for your excessive courtesy, "fcnd'ff&ay almost say affectionate reception. The great international rifle-shooting match has concluded with a victory for the American team. Our riflemen have main tained their hard-earned reputation vory handsomely, and the exciting contest closed with the best possible feeling on the part of visitors and hosts. Five teams engaged In the friendly strife, and the result for the two days' shooting Is as follows: Americans, 3.I2G points; Irishmen, 3.104; Scotchmon, 3.0G3; Australians, 3,002; Canadians, 2,023.
