I I think the ebote propoeitton rtn be tenlv anHwered in the negetije.

Now unless we increue the bulk of the orou 225 pound, seed obtton per acre and ■ell the lint for twelve cento per pound we are actual losers. It will require good cultivation with fine aeaaons, to do this. Now, we can't afford to buy .guano to in crease onr crop, which Increases our la bor, and oorae out even on it, because the iuorease of the whole orop of the oonntry, by uaiug it, makes the supply so great that it lowers the price. Aud, sir, it frequently happens (hat we use these fertilisers when they prove to be entirely worthless, either because they are put up on the smngg- gling idea, or the season makes them so. I have, myself, used them free ly and have deliberately oonoluded that, tutside of their depressing the price, I lavs no doubt, however, that, taking the rbule Southern belt in the oount, the use these foreigu manures probably fo resee the crop nearly one million bales, * whioh brings the price down at least one- third, or to about the coat of production. I graut, sir, that when wo got 20 oonts per pound for our cotton, we made money by using it; for then our 225 pounds of seed cotton, that cost ns $8.50, would sell for twice that amount. But we sell our cotton now for not more than 12 cents. Then, why pursue a policy of this sort, when nine-tenths of us admit that it is doing us, as individuals and as a great . community, much harm ? Now, I will say something about our general system. We Southern farmers llant all the cotton we can get renters or lired hands to cultivate, only a few of us making our own provisions. We make about com enough, on an average, to do us four months, and bny our supplies for the remainder of the year. This plan is alrnust universally followed. So many acres are thus planted in ootton, whioh be ing stimulated by fertilisers, swells onr yield to such an extent that we more than supply the demand. The price of oonrse goes down, and the rest of the world prospers while the farmer suffers. I do not claim these as original ideas; they are facts that every farmer acknowl edges and fully understands. Eaob far mer seems to go upon the idea that every ither farmer, being as fully persuaded of inr present folly as he himself is, will ihange the rule—plant more grain and less cotton, thus leaving him to reap a lorious harvest with his fall cotton crop, ’hue the thing goes on from year to year, ■nd we, as a class, are growing poorer as we grow older. Ur. Editor, we all see the errors into whioh we have fallen, and we all know the remedy, although, knowing it, we fail to use it. Let us all determine that we will use he lights that we have, and oome oat on this darkness that is growing thioker around us. I am sure that, if every far. mer of this section (I mean the ootton country) would raise his own supplies of every description, and then all the cotton ha could use, would in a few years from to-day be the richest and happiest people on the face of the globo. Let our papers and farmers, too, in their intercourse with each other, encour age the people to this course.

And what he saw there, be mentioned not in a spirit of complaint against the merchant, but as a comment on the Southern system of farm ing. “That’s What I’ve Bren Txllxmo Emily.”—Canada’s bright aud sensible Governor General, Lord Dafferin, has given to the Dominion people a new by word, which has spread with electrio ra pidity from one end of Canada to the other. On his voyage out, being oalled oh bv the emigrant-* to address them, he alluded to this phrase, which had grated harshly on his ear: “He had the misfor tune of having too many children.” Lord Dufferin said: “I remarked that >erhape no better idea could be given of be difference between tbe old oountry and their new home than by tbe faot that whereas in England a struggling man light be overweighed in the battle of life •y a too numerous family, iu the land to rhich they were going a man oonld oaroaly have too many children. Here I ras upplanded lustily, with a cheerful so- ompaniment of laughter also, when I vm further greoted with an improving thump on the back by a stalwart young emigrant, who cried oat, ‘Bight you are, air; that’s what I’ve been telling Emily.’ ” The Canadians have got up the slang phrase, “That’s what I’ve been telling Emily,” having had the anecdote made familiar by going the rounds of the news papers, and now one hears everywhere, ‘That’s what I’ve been telling Emily.” [Harper'* Magazine for December, —Whilst the jury in the safe burglary trial were out it has been ascertained that continued communications passed be tween them snd the parties indicted, by which the state of the poll wss made 1 -nown and hopes held ont to them of fl- \*1 acquittal. Among those suspected of siding in keeping up this communication ie ex-Governor Shepherd, who wss found in the hall of the Court House late at night, after the jory had been lockod up, in company with a restaurant keeper nam- «d Wsloker. It is supposed thsthe wss ar ranging with Welcker a contemplated dinner to celebrate the acquittal of Har rington. —Baltimore American. For Tax Collector.
