OK THE NEW YORK TRIBUNE, CrON TBI VINELAND SETTLEMENT fiTThe following a an extract from the report of Solon Ri.binson, Esq., published in tho New York Tribune, l reference to finelanl. All par-tons oan read this report with interest. Advantage of Fi minej near Home Vine, land Remarks uprni Marl 8ni1, its great Fertility The Ctie of Fertility Atniunt ol Crops Produced Practical Evidence. Uncertainly one of the most eitenslve fertile tracts, in an almost level position, and suitable condition for pleasant farrain; that we know of thia aide of the western prairies. We found soma .of the nldest farms apparently lust as profitably productive aa when first cleared of forest fifty ar a hundred years ago The geologist would soon discover the cause of thia continue fertility. Tha whole country is a marine deposit, and all through the aoil we found evidences of otloarenus substances, generally in the form of indurated calcareous marl, showing mmy distinct forms of ancient shells, of tba tertiary formation: and thta marly substance is aatterd all thmngh tha ant). In a sary nommlnn'xil form, and In the eiaot condition most easily assimilated by each plant aa the farmer desires to cultivate. Marl in all Its forma, hes aeon used to fertilise eropa in Kagiand.from ihe time it was oooopied by the Romans; amd ia Franos and Germany a marl bet) rt counted on as a valuable bed of manure . that ean be dot antd carted' and spread over tha field. How nrach aanra vatwable then It muat be, when found already nrfael through the soil where new particles will be tames! up and eiposed, and trans-lormed to the owners use every tiuM he stirs tte earth. : ibe.as.o,rBi,;.H'U,,' will not be eicited with wonder at aeeing indubitable evidence of fertility In a aoil which in other aituationa, having tho same general oharacteristica or at least appearances, is entiroly nnremunerative except as its productiveness is promoted by artificial fertilisation. A few Words about the quality and value of this land for cultivation, of wbleh ws have strong proof. Our first visit was to William D. Wilson, Franklin township, Gloucester county; who purohased some eight miles north of Millville, about three yearsago, for the purpose of establishing a ateam mill to work up the timter into lumbar, to Bend off by the new railroad, as well as firewood and coal, for which ho bu At a branch track a mil e and a half long. He also furnished sixteen miles of tho road with ties, and has no doubt made tho mill profitable, though bis main object was to open a farm, having beoome convinced that the aoil was valuable for cultivation. Inthiiho haa not been disappointed, aoaome of his crops prove. For instance, lost year, the second time of cropping, SOB bushels of potatoes os one aero, worth 60 cents a bushel in tha field. This year seven acres itnout any manure produced 356 bushels of oats. In one field, the first erop was potatoes planted among the roots and yioldcd 75 bushola. Tho potatoes wore dug, and wheat sowd, and yielded 16 bushels; and the stubble turned and sown to buckwheat, whioh yield ed 33 bushels; and then tha ground was sown to clover and timothy, whioh gave aa a first orop 2 tons per aore. The fertilisers applied to those oropa; were first, ashes from clearings; second 225 pounds superphosphate of lime; third '100 pounds Peruvian guano; then 50 bushels of slakod lime has been spread npon theclovorsinoe it was mowed, and turned in for wheat. Mr- Wilson's growing crops, and the wheat stubble of the present aeason, all indicate hia land as bei ng productive aa any part of the State. At Mary Barrow's, an old atyle Jersey woman farmer, several miles south of Mr. Wilson's, we were so particularly struck with the fins appearance of a field of oarn, that wa stopped to inquire of a hired manhow it waa produced. We found that the lane had been the year but one before in wheat, sown with o lover, and thia cut one aeaaon, and last spring plowed ones with 'one poor old nag' and planted with corn. I ea, '.ut you manured high, wa suppose? we said interrogatively, and got this roply Waal, you see, we couldn't a done that, beoauae we hadn't but forty one-horse load) altogether, for 28 acres, and we wanted the most on it for the truck." The truck consisted of beeta,oarrots, cabbage, en-jumbera, melons, Ao., and every productive patch of Lima Beans, grown for marketing. So wo wero satisfied that the aoil was not infertile, even unaided by clover, which had fed tha oorn, bcoause the truok patch had not been clnvered, and bad been in cultivation long enough to obliterate all signs of the forest- Our next visit waa to the farm of Andrew Sharp five miles north of Millville, from half to a mile east of the railroad, and just about in the centre of Vineland. Mr. Sharp commenced work here in December, 1858, upon 270 acres. In less than three yours ho has (-ot 234 acres cleared and in crops this S'-oson, all well inoloBed and divided into several Holds, with cedar rail or pole fence; has built a two story dwelling, about 86 by 40 feet, and a smaller house for farm laborers, and a stable or granary and soma other outbuildings. Considerable part of the land wasolcared for the plow at $0 per acre, and on some of it the first orop wasb.iekwheat, limed with 50 bushels in powder per acre. This orop may be put in July 4th to 20th and yields 20 to 30 bushels per acre, harvested in November; when the land being lowed with 150 lbs of Peruvian guano and soeded with rye, yielded 12 to ia oudouia per acre ano iu worth of straw. Tho rye stubble turned, after knocking off a large growth of oak sprouts, and dressed sgnin with gu-unoand seeded to wheat, give 15 U 18 bushels. The crop which he was threshing while wa were there promisee moro, of a very plump grain, and tho straw is very heavy. Wewentovor the elubble, and found the clover and limethy from seed sowed lost spring, on the wheat without harrowing, looking as well na wo uvor ii u,wn any oia cultivated farm, and with a little work done in the winter to olear off i,.ma roots nnd rotten atumps.nnd setting stakes to mirk permanent ones, lie will be able to cut tho crop the next year with a mowing maohlna, and wo will guarantee two tons per uoro, if ho willgive t.io tvor plus if it overruns the ostimat . Part of tho land was planted with potatoes for a fint orop, whioh ylehlert Via bushels per acre. It was then limed with 50 buihols per acre, and soeded with wheat and olovor, yielding an average of o.ui '.UU.UIU pi ,ro, ui mo oiovor now looks beautiful. 4 . 1, 1 ' . ,. 1 i . wwi fuiituna uitve ocen mantea with .nm... first orop, which yielded 31) bushels of yellow flint aorn, and the aooond orop forty bushels, ann the inira crop, iroaioa to ion lbs nf guano, we are sure no one wouiu esuinote bou.w 40 bushels por aero. apoiiKing oi ii.ua on'ircly new, and which can aoarcely be Considered in good arable condition. In othor eaaea tho corn crop of lost vear waa f.,1. lowed with oats this season, not yot thrashed, hut will average probably 40 to 50 bushels. Sweet potatoes, 1 eans, melons and in fact nil garden vntn. bles, aa woll ns young peach and othor fruit troea planted thia year show very plainly that this lung aegleoted tract of land ahould remain so no longer, and there is now a strong probability that it will not; for under the auspices of Mr. Lindis.lt will bo divided into small lots, with roads located to accommodate all tha surveyor ia now busy at this worsj..ana an purcnasers will bo required to build neat comfortable houses, and either fence their lutein uniformity, or agree to livo without fence, whicn would be preamble, by which means a good population will be secured, who will et ablish churches, schools, stores-mills, raeshanio shops and homes homes of A merican farmers, sunounded by gardens, orchards, fields and comforts ef oivil iied life.

GOD'S JEWELS. it Has. i. a. wsioar As 'mid the rocks and sands of earth, The costly diamonds lie; As gold is sprinkled through the depths, Unseen by human eye; As pearls lie gleamless in their caves, Beneath the restless ses, Or earth's deep vaults of wealth are hid For ages yet to be-So sleep the jewels of God's grace, The diaoionde of his love, Amid earth's darkness and its gloom, Till raised to joys above. Tbey dsssle not in crowded streete, Nor gleam in gilded hall e; Tbey do not give their brightest ray Within high palace walls. We do not see on beauty'e brow Their mystic flash always; Nor do they wake in hearts of men Their words of warmest praise But oft in lonely homes they shine. With softest brilliancy, Where God's own spirit deigns to dwell, And guard them lovingly . What though they gleam unseen below, Or lie in elamberiog worth, An eye unseen beholds them ill, And loves His gems of earth. Not alvajs 'mid the wrecks of time, Shall Gods own jewels lie, His own right hand shall gather them, To grace his throne on high. There where the Godhead's brightest ray8 Fall with effulgent beam, They shall the radiance evermore Reflect with loveliest gleam. Ah! Yes these toils, these prsyers, thes, tears, Theae conflicts of the soul, These stern ml angry storms of life That o'er the spirit roll, Shall but refine end polish well, Each fond and lovely gem; And mould and fashion it aright, For Christ's own diadem. And he shall tell his holy one. How in earth's gloomy night, He hasted to its awful wreck Aud suis.d his jj.ruli bri'it. Eketch of Gen. Lander, BrtgadterOeneral Fraocia W. Lander, whose iudda death will take the country by aorprise, and evoke a universal feeline ol regret, wis a native ol Massachuse'ts; and in bis thirty-eight year. Hia earliest years were marked with a love of adventure, and taste For the profession of arms. Although not a graduate of West Point he was, undoubtedly, one ol the ablest military leaders of the present unfortunate struggle, and was a very Cour ie Lion on the tattle-field. Innumerable instances have been related of bis personal rlsiirg amounting almost at times to r ckless ness, and there ate I6W special correspondents wto have not ohronioljd instances of his manly courage. His name was first made prominent in connection with an exploration for a agon -road to the PaciB-j some few years since. At the breaking out of the present rebellion he was appointed by General McUlellsn, then in Western Virginia, to be a member of bis tiafT. The brilliant exploit at P lillippi was mainlv d-o to himself aud lirigadier tijneral B. F. K-lly. At Rich Mountain his worth again dis played itself, in the valuable assistance which he rendered to General McClelln. UDOn General McClellan's appdn'ment to '.he command of the army of lue Potomac, Genets! Lin lor sccompau'ed him, and proved a valuable juxiliary in reoiganizing tbe demoralized and difpiticed lorces. 3o highly was he esteemed that the Ujvernmeol shortly after di.-p itched him upon aecret service, which he performed with credit to his own ssgnoity, and to toe entire st is Action of the President. Uoon his return from his foreign mission he was placed in command of a brigade in Gen. Banks' division, and at the bitllo of Klwards' Forry, on the 21tt of October, he waa for tbe first time wounded, being shot ia the leg while g llaiitly cheering furwa.-d his men. Tbe wound was of such a rerious character that he was compelled, al hou.'h reluctantly, ts relinquish his command lor several weeks. About threo months since be was ap pointed commander of our forces at Uouiney, Va. On tbe approach of tbe rebel Gjncrul Jack son.be was forced to evacuate that position, to Drevent himself from being ouithnked a movement extremely distasteful to httnself, and only made at tbe las ta nee o: ma com- manacr-in-cnier. It was but a few days since that we chron icled his dashing exploit at Bloomery Gap Having beard that a rebel camp waa at mat place, be marched a distance of tb'rtytwo miles with his four thousand men, and succeeded h surprising it completely. By this anun ha succeeded in capturing no less than seventeen commissioned olfioers and forty five nrivates. losing but two men. The afl'iir elicits t tbe following complimentary notice from tbe Secretary of War: Wab Department, i Washington.

However, tha wound received at KJwards Farre- waa still Dsinful. and excited the alarm m hia frianda and medical adviser.

Central Lander was finished scholar, and a rentlaman of fine literary tastes His wet the trus type of tbe American soldier' Fear was ao emotion of. which his rsisr? was in- nahla,and fionrare the strongest impulse w hit bieast, His sphere was the battlefield, aad bis pride the Lead of bis oolunrn. Ho other man so justly deserved thecompliment of General Scott, 'Hhat he was America's natural born soldier." Tbe nation has few such soldiers to immolate their lives oil tbe altar of its nationality. uen. Lander was married less three years since to Miss J. M. Davenport, the distinguished tragedienne, and emo-t accomplished lady. Her loss is tbe nation's loss, and ber grief will be shared by the entire Americin people.

Mr. Tburlow Weed writes a letter to the London Star of February 18tb, in which be gives the following account of the manner in w bio John B. Floyd was brought to resign his place as Secretary of War under Mr. Buchanan, which lie had used to furlhor the ends of treason. "In February, Major Anderson, com manding at Fort Moultrie.Chailestoa harbor, finding his position endangered, passed bis garrison, by a prompt and brilliant movement, over t the stronger fortress of Sumpter; whereupon Mr. F oyd, Secretary of War, much excited, called upon the President to say that Major Anderson hid violated express orders, and thereby seriously compromised him (Fiord), and that unless the Major was immediately remanded to Fort Molutrie, be should resign tbe War Office. "The Cabinet was assembled directly. Mr. Buchanan, explaining (be cmbarass-mnnt of the Secretary of War, remarked that the act of Major Anderson would oc casion exasperation in the South; he had told Mr. Floyd that, as tne uovernment was stroncr. forbear tnce towards erring brethren might win them btck to their allegiance, and that that officer might be ordered back. Alter in ominous biience the President inquired how the suggestion struck his Cabinet? "Mr. Sianton, juit now called to the War Office, but then Attorney General, answered. That course, Mr. President, ouht certainly to be regarded as most liberal towards 'erring brethren,' but while one member of your Cabinet has f audu-lent acceptances for millions of dollars afloHt, and while the conGdental clerk of another himself in Carolina, teaching rebellion has just stolen nice hundred thousand dollars from the Indian trust fund, tbe experiment of order ng M jor Anderson back to Fort Mouliri would U'i Jitngrrous.

Ho incenied were tbe rebels. that they spared nothing in their work of destruo tion except a pinion or private property. The evecua.thn commenced on 'Thursday, the 27th of February, but all the rebels did not leave until a late hour in the afterncon of Monday, March 3d. The torch of the incendiary was first applied on Friday, and the conflagration rsged with great fury until Sunday. Even as late as Tuesday large portions of the enemy's barrracka, magssines and other quarters were still burning, sending up heavy olouds of emnke and ashes. The rebels did nnt destroy the fortifications which bsve cost them so much labor, but left them unmolested. Kverythiut which they enuld not carry away with them they either burned or throw into the river. A great many cannon of the most affective range have bsen dismantled and sunk in I he river. In one plsoe there were five hesvy guns, and in another seven, wbich bad been thrown from a hiijh 'bluff on the bank of tne river. Hut in their descent tbey bad been stopped by the trees which overhang the s resm below. It is as yet impossible to ascertain how many cannon the rebels bave thrown into the Miss igfippi supposing that in so duirg, tbey would ren der them useless to os. Lieut-Col. IWir of the Second Illinois Cavalr', fi on Psducah, ia company with 250 men was th first to enter the enemy's works at 5 o'clock Monday afternoon Our gunboat and transports reached the pluce at eight o'clock Tuesday; but the oB. cers not knowing bat the position had been evacuate., and occup-ed by our troops, the gunboats were cleared for action, and moved down the river in line ofbvt'e. They soon, howevir, descried the glorious Stars snd Stripes which were proudly waving over the bluff, where they hal bei-n planted by Liaut. Col. Hogg. Although thnre wore no gun, in the water batterios, still the gun carthges thst remained presented a similar appearance to mounted guns. The Rebels entirely destroyed thoir barracks.
