{Conclusion of Lecture Fourth.) 
One curious circumstance, perhaps, you 
Avould not anticipate, is this: The average 
length of winter at Frederickton, New- 
Brunswick, which exceeds yours by some 
^5 days, does not appear to interfere with 
the produce of the land in the more north¬ 
ern climate. In the northern climate, veg¬ 
etation grows more rapidly in spring. It is 
a curious fact, that on examining the average 
products of New Brunswick, New York and 
Ohio, the average produce of New Bruns¬ 
wick is found to be greater than that of 
New York or Ohio, though the summer is 
longer in both these States. Therefore, the 
farmer in these northern regions, has every 
encouragement to occupy every leisure mo¬ 
ment in the preparation of his land, for the 
soil is not niggardly in its returns, though 
they must do more work in less time than 
in more southern countries. 
Another fact; though the severe frosts 
last so long, they are not altogether without 
benefits; if tlie frost descends to the depth 
of three or four feet, as it does in the coun¬ 
try between the St. Lav’*i-ence and the Bay 
of Fundy, the effect of warmth is such that 
it lieaves up the ground, and renders it al¬ 
most ready to SOW wheat, as SOOh as the 
frost is out; and it is a fact which practical 
men tell me, that the depth of the frost ac¬ 
tually aids in preparing the land for the 
crops, and makes the work of plowing easi¬ 
er. Thus we see that nature is sometimes 
far kinder to us than we to ourselves, and 
that while she is shutting up land, as it 
were, she is preparing it, the better for use 
when the summer sun shines; so much in 
regard to temperature. 
I told you that the next clement of con¬ 
sequence, was the quantity of rain that falls. 
On a former occasion, I described to you 
the condition of various parts of the earth, 
where no rains ever fall. In parts of Asia, 
and Africa, no rain ever falls. Now the 
fall of rain, is a matter of interest. First, 
in regard to the ^quantity. Secondly, the 
time when it falls; and thirdly, in regard to 
the manner. First, as to quantity. From 
the observations made in different places, I 
cite a few statistics. In London, the quan¬ 
tity is 23 inches, that is to say, supposing 
all tlie rain that falls, is dammned in and 
measured. In Edinburgh, it is 24 inches; 
in Liverpool, 34 inches; in Manchester, 36 
inches; in Keswick, a very wet place, 76 
inches; in New York, 42 inches; in Roches¬ 
ter, 39 inches; in Worcester, 39 inches; in 
Portland, Maine, 44 inches; in Savannah, 
55 inches; in St. Domingo, 150 inches; in 
Bombay, 80 inches. In some parts of the 
world, I may state, as on the Runn of Kutch, 
in India, between June and September, 240 
inches of rain falls, that is, during the rainy 
monsoons. You all know how important 
the quantity of rain is to the growth of 
plants. Let me illustrate this, by reference 
to the statistics of my own island. 
On the west side of the island, you will 
have seen, that the quantity of rain that 
falls, is greater than on the eastern. At 
Edinburgh, it is 24 inches; at London, 23 
and 24; but on the west side, at Liverpool, 
it is 34 inches; at Manchester, 36; at Kes¬ 
wick, 76. This is found to be universally 
the fact, that more rain falls on the Avest, 
than on the east side; and it is known, that 
the green crops, the potato and the turnip, 
which require more moisture, are more 
grown on the western, than on the eastern 
coast of England. The average of these 
crops, in the western part of the island, are 
nearly double the average of the same crops 
in the eastern part. Thus you see that the 
kind of husbandry depends upon the quan¬ 
tity of rain that falls. Where no rain falls, 
there is of course, barrenness, unless certain 
causes come in to supply the deficiency.— 
Where rain falls periodically, as on the 
Runn of Kutch, there you have a season of 
growth, and a season of barrenness. Where 
rain falls in autumn, it often impedes the 
ripening of gTain. In Iceland, Avhere the 
temperature is high enough to ripen barley 
the rain comes on in autumn, to prevent it. 
But there are circumstances, which, what¬ 
ever the season at Avhich the rain falls, mod¬ 
ify the kind of husbandry, and render the 
soil capable of producing certain things, 
which naturally could not be groAvn. Sup¬ 
pose the rain to fall only in certain months; 
the consequence is, that evaporation, not be¬ 
ing as great as the rain that falls, the land 
becomes saturated Avith Avater, and the con¬ 
sequences of this are Avell knoAvn. 
But art can do something to make such 
lands capable of producing some crops Avhich 
they otherwise could not, and that is, by 
drainage. An artificial mode of relieving 
hmd of surplus Avater, not caiaied off by 
evaporation, and Avhich otherAvise must re¬ 
main and stagnate. Drainage is of tAvo kinds: 
one is for the removal of springs, the Avater 
l^at comes from the earth—the other for 
the removal of the surface water which falls 
from the clouds, and Avliich cannot be evap¬ 
orated. All know that stiff clay soils require 
such drainage. In our climate, all the clay < 
soils can only be made productive beyond 
their natural capabilities, by drainage. But 
there are other soils of a light character, 
such as the loamy soils, approachiiig the 
character of gravel and sand, which liave 
been found to be improved by a thorough 
drainage for the removal of the surface Ava¬ 
ter. But drainage becomes more or less 
important, not merely Avith reference to the 
character of the soil, but to the quantity of i 
rain that falls. Take, for instance, London i 
and Edinburgh, Ncav York and Rochester. 
The-quantity of rain that falls in these places, 
other things being equal, determines the de¬ 
gree of necessity for drainage. When I 
tell you that near Edinburgh, Avhere the 
rain is only 24 inches, it is found that an ex¬ 
pense of five, and even eight pounds an acre, 
for drainage only, is found to be profitable, 
in the removal of surface water, you will 
perceive that it is a matter well deserving 
the consideration of the practical man, who 
desires to improve his soil, whether this sys¬ 
tem of thorough drainage, could not be in¬ 
troduced Avith advantage in this country, 
Avhere the rain that falls is more than in 
England. 
We find that in almost all soils, such ex¬ 
penditures are not only profitable, for the 
time being, but that it pays its own expense 
in a few years, and leaves the land perma¬ 
nently good. At Albany, you have forty 
inches of rain, and in other places mention¬ 
ed, you have much more, showing that in 
this State, at leastj the land Avould be im¬ 
proved by this system of thorough drainage. 
One observation here. It would appear 
that the extreme heat of your summers 
ought to render drainage unnecessary, but 
when I tell you that among the places Avith 
which I have had communication, by letter 
and otherAvise, are Jamaica, and Barbadoes, 
and Demarara, Avhere the summers are as 
hot as yours are, and where the soils are of¬ 
ten stiff clays, liable to be dried up by the 
heat of summer, and that in these places 
Avhere I have recommended drainage, the 
results of the experiment have been that the 
land has been improved in productiveness, 
and has yielded far greater crops than sim¬ 
ilar land, not drained. You will see that 
the removal of water from stiff clays, by 
drainage, even in climates where the sum¬ 
mers are hot, and are characterized by great 
drought, may be resorted to with advantage 
and profit, and that after all, the quantity 
of rain that falls is of more consequence than 
the heat of summer. 
In connection Avith this point, let me draw 
your attention to another mode, by Avhich 
Avet and marshy lands can be benefited.— 
It does not properly come in here, but it 
will seiwe to shoAv you what great results 
may be accomplished by human ingenuity,, 
when intelligently directed. Prof. J. here 
pointed to the northern part of England, to 
the Humber and the Trent Rivers, saying 
that through the Trent, the tide runs Avith 
great velocity, far up the river, carrj'ing with 
it a veiy muddy Avater. Froih the Trent, a 
canal has been cut for many years, for the 
puspose of bringing this muddy Avater from 
the river into the interior of the country, 
and pouring it over the surface of the land. 
Thus said he, the Avater is let in upon the 
land, twice every day; as the tide retires, 
the mud is left, and in the course of six 
months, it sometimes leaves a depth of six 
inches or a foot of sea mud, the fertility of 
which is well known. The same process 
has been adopted on a similar scale in dif¬ 
ferent parts of the island, and so it has hi 
NeAV BrunsAvick. 
Another way of reclaiming land has been 
put to use in Italy. There are celebrated 
tracts of country, famous for having been 
once marshes. But in Florence, in Tuscany, 
there occur the most remarkable. It is cal¬ 
led the Val d’Arno, and it is said to have 
been the course of a river Avhich once flow¬ 
ed through the valley into the Tiber. The 
current being sluggish, the valley Avas once 
an entire marsh. Various efforts have been 
made to drain it—but more recently a pro¬ 
cess has been adopted which is exceedingly 
beautiful. The whole valley was divided 
into square portions, considerably elevated 
at one end of the valley, and the water be¬ 
ing made to floAV from one of these square 
enclosures into another, so that the Avhole 
valley became gTadually filled up, and is 
now converted into one of the most fertile 
regions knoAvn in Italy. The water floAving 
in fact, in a different direction from what it 
did originally. Thus you see hoAv by adapt¬ 
ing your operations to circumsttmees, natu¬ 
ral difficulties may be overcome and made 
conducive to health and profit. 
Among other things connected with thi§ 
subject, I may draw your attention to fogs 
and mists, Avhich often cause great injury 
to the farmer. You are accustomed to con¬ 
sider our climate as more foggy and misty 
than yours; but if these numbers, I have 
given you are true, Ave have less rain than 
you. Whether we have more fogs and 
mists at certain seasons, I do not know; on 
the Thames and in London, fogs are more 
frequent than in other parts of England; 
and probably the ideas of our climate, form¬ 
ed by strangers, are the result of impres¬ 
sions draAvn from visiting London alone, and 
not other parts of England. But the way 
we remove fogs and mists, except in the 
neighborhood of London, is by the removal 
of their causes—by drainage. Not having 
it in our poAver to do as in many parts of 
Italy, we have been obliged to remove Ava¬ 
ter by drainage, and by this means over a 
large poidion of our country, fogs and mists 
have disappeared. In Lancashire, there 
Avas a lake, which was celebrated for its
