Wa are daily in the reoeipt of lettera and aomniuaioaUoea from anonymoua oorreapondente. In oonfurmity with uewa- peper usage, we tnnat continue to throw aside erary article that ia not aecompa- nied tty the name of the writer. I* is stated that the Bepoblisan men. tiers of the Congressional Committee on Appropriations hare made up their esti- ttatta without coaaalting the Democratic members of the committee, and that the Democrats, in consequence, will not bo piepered'M point eat any improper items when the Appropriation bills are reported. The design appears to be to rush them through aa quickly as possible, and with little examination, Bos. fan M. Oaitiei has retired from the Opelika Timet. He made a eery cred itable record aa an editor, and did good aerrice In the lata political campaign. Mr. D. H. Kisser offers one-half of the paper for Cals. Mr. Kisser ia an ener- getio man, and would no doubt be an ex. oellent associate for any one wishing to engage in the newspaper business; and Opdllka If a place that ought to support a good paper. Taxes ia to be quits a pressure upon Congress, when it meets next week, to engage in great works of internal im provement—the three proposed oanals, the Southern Pacific Railroad, Aa.—as a menus of affording work for the people. A "log-rolling'' echeme of this kind, call ing for hundreds of millions in the shape of bonds or more greenback issues, may succeed; but this is certainly not the road by which early specie payments can be CURIOUS INTERPRETATIONS. Major Calhoun .-—This aehtenee occurs in an article on Foreign Labor and Cap ital that appeared in the Eaqurnas yester day i "Let the ' itUtflUg^ntnieader sit ea|mly down sad dtflmfai Irish, other forhigm aad then imagine them out-sf t|B tomt, and what would tt %dt\ A trHff|fa'e**o| ruined houses filled with (griper whites, and its streets paved with' starving ne groes.” 8ome people—and I am not one of them—imagine yon reflect on the Southern people as a' clefs. 1 am a Southern man, and have reaJIoo fnaiiy tributes to our people from your pen to believe you mean anything but what wee manly and just. I know it is easy.to And fault when one is inelined that wsj; hut I trust there ia a day of better feeiibg coming to onr people—a feeling of diA passionate justice. Lex. We know of a gentleman who said he would vote against Mr. Hcllhenny be cause Calhoun was his friend, and this on account of the article our correspondent refers to. We remember a fable of JSaop that tells how a wolf and a lamb met by a stream to drink. The Barrent Sowed to ward the lamb, but the wolf aoeused him of muddying the water. The Iamb pointed out the impossibility of this, when the wolf charged the lamb with hav log urged the bounds after him six months before. The lamb vowed he was not born then. The wolf shouted, “It fpjn dam or your sire, then I ” Ho he 'spr* on the lamb and tore him to pieces. The moral drawn ia that if yok want to quarrel with a man and place yourself with his foes, yon can easily git a pre text. Mr. Hcllhenny and we are two aepsrafe and distinot men, and great as ia our gsrd for him, our interest in this city is infinitely greater, and through the winter, we felt that his eon-7 * ditioo was pitiable Indeed. He did not, as we laaraetLhave any small grain planted feed. He had Politicians are speculating on the prospect of s lively fight In Congress, this winter, between Butler and Hoar, of tbo House, over the Civil Rights bill. They aay that But'er will eootend for amendments striking out the provisions requiring mixed schools and mixed buri als in the cemeteries, and will probably be unstained by General Grant; while Hoar will demand the passage of the bill just as Sumner committed it to hishands. The bill it the first thing in the calendar of the House of Representatives. It ts becoming quite a common thing for Federal Judges and other officials to resign in order to escape impeachment; and the readiness with wbiob their resig nations are accepted when tendered under suob circumstances ia a crying evil. Last year a United Stales District Judge in Ar- kausss was permitted to resign, with charges pending against him that demand ed his impeachment. A mouth or two ago Judge liusteed, of Alabama, with ar ticles of impeachment pending against him, and immediately after conduct that necessitated the preferring of new oharges of a serious character, was also permitted to resign. And now we hear that Durell, of Louisiana, also under impeachment, has resigned. No doubt his resignation will also be aocepted. A Fedeial Judge is encouraged by these examples to out rage law; justice, and deeenoy to any ex tent, knowing that the only penalty re quired will be bis resignation. What a fall from the standard of judicial purity and integrity that was reoenily the boast of our oountry! Flobida.—Amounts already published by us have shown how the Radical offi- rials in two or three counties of Middle Florida manege J to oonut in members of the Legislature whom the people rejected, and thns Secure a small majority iu that body. They are now greatly alarmed at the prospect of losing the prise they were struggling for—the United States Hen atorehip—after all their trioky proceed ings. They say that Governor Stearns has efacted a sort,of “combination' 1 with the Democrats, by whioh an oppo. nent of Gen. Grant's administration will be elected to the Senate. The Wash' ington Republican refers to this as an “ugly rumor,” and de nounces the reported design of Htearus as “despioable treason." It says that "Democratic sucoessos mint have some what demoralized him, snd he is either frightened at the prospect, or has delib. erately planned the betrayal of his party.” We know nothing about this matter ex- ( cept what we flud in Radical papers. But it sums to ua that the proceedings by which the Radicals of Florida have ob tained a majority iu the Legislature ought to “demoralize" any man among them who prises honesty and law, and that all such men ought to refuse to participate in the conspiracy for stealing a Senatorial seat in that way. '' —Whiter 8treet,of Buffalo,arrived from the Black Hills, where he has been pros pecting since August. He reports having found eouie packet gold, but not enough to pay for working. He declares there ia no truth about the gold discoveries lest summer. Two of his comrades were kill ed by the ludians, who swarm among the hills. —Before the eleotiou #700 only was paid at pnbHc outcry for a tract of laud iu Mad ison oouuty. The tonic land sold lest T«ek at El.l'-’i. This is only one of the many indications of the good of Demo cratic rule.

We can only feel, however, that those who array themselves against our friend because they hate us, would vote against him under any oireutn- atauoes. Let the objector read the arti cle, word for word, and while he may think it very candid, he must not Imagine it applies to any but a small class of tj>e people. Our oourse sinoe we came to Columbus has been unflinchingly in the interest of the South, and no man has paid more earnest tributes than have we to Hpulllern manhood and womanhood. And It is our appreciation of these people that leads us to oppose as wrong the types selected to represent us. While we must ever de nounce the suicidal expressions of the negro who clsimed to utter the senti ments of Mr. Wilkins, we stand ready yield all praise to the great and overwhelming majority of South ern people, who have so heroioally striven to remedy the poverty and the ruin of the war. Do we not daily ory.fyr more ospital, and more skilled labor? Are they nut essential to our rapid devel opment ? Then, why should we nyt raise our voiee and rebuke as non-Bouthnrn the sentiments so calculated to Injure us, not only materially, but because they are not an index lo the feelings or character of our people? Depend upon it, the mab who strikes Mr. Mellbenny over our shoulder, would do it iu any event, and this ia but the pretext. The oourse we have adopted in this journal we can never ohange, and ’that we measure the people rightly, let the success of the Enquirer testify. “We haves sublime faith in the people of the South and the future of this country; bnt it is tq.ha achieved by hard, indefatigable work, and by exeroiaing a broad charity and eXterid- ing a oosdial welcome towards all men who come to make this their home. Co lumbus ia going to rise, but it must rise by the generosity of its citizens,' and the wisdom and liberality 61 its people. Iu conclusion we can only say the article yesterday was intended for our personal trsdnoers, and they number in this city of tan thousand inhabitants, just thirty, seven. We think it is glorious that this is the ease. We think it would be infa mous if this small number were looked upon by strangers aa tha representatives of our people. upon ootton, that he mnoh money •(►fay in tha faMfjaad cotton was the ocop mi Which IwialMto bring ia money. It bsppenaa that the seasons were not favorable to a good ootton crop in bis im mediate locality, aad his crop was short, buy they never had a better season for corn. This farmer, by. his exclusive de votion to cot ton (which he deemed a ne cessity imposed by his indebtedness) failed to avail himself of Providential favors, and struggle unavailingly against adverse seasons. The efipwieuce of him- •elf aad neighbors hught to admonish them that by diversifying tge|r crops they mly almost any year- make a lucky bit with some important produot, instead of lpting everything, as our unlucky friend did, by depending on ootton alone. To the Grange organization is due, in large ^ait, tbs beginning that has been made fa the economy ot planting less cot ton and more food-produoing crops. That intelligent organization cannot fail to see the good effect of tbepolioy^thongh com menced on a small soale. If it could gather up and make publio some data by whioh an estimate oould be formed of the extent of the reduction of tbo cotton crop effected in tbie way, it might huve a good Iffect th ahotrigg (h» sffaoltou planters what they would have loti in the price of their cotton had all planters followed their example. Alahaesa Legislature. Thurtday, 'Ml.—Ia the Senate, Mr. Cooper intsodaoed'the'following bills: To make the sale of liquors to minors an indiotable offenoe; aldo, to flx the liabil ity of inn-keepeo who have drinking sa loons connected therewith ; Also, to se cure the payment of fines in cases of illi cit dis^ljery, selling liquor to minors, wllowlngeniaoas lo»play ot billiards where a drinking saloon is kept—all referred. Mr. Harris, of Russell: To authorize Charles Abercrombie, administrator, te sell lands at private sale—referred to Ju- dhiaty Otnmnittee, with' isatructlona to report's general BIB coveHng such oases. Mr. Moore: To repeal the act giving the aid of the State in expediting the pon- ■tmetfon ef railixada; aloe, to tiz the rate of taxation on real odd pemonal properly —both refaired. The Senate took up the special order—the bill to prevent the sale of agricultural plpdooie between sunset and sunrise —amended and passed it to its third reading. (It punishes such sales of cotton, corn, wheat, oats, potatoes or pees,*hy fine not exceeding fffiou, or im prisonment.) The seoond special order— the bill to repeal tbe “recognizance” law of the last Legislature—passed its third reading and goes to tbe House. ' The following were among tbe bills in troduced in the House on the call of the couqties, and all referred unless other wise stated: Mr. Price, to amend section 3,706 of tbe Code, so as to make the steal, ing of any domestic animal, or any out standing dropoi ebro Air cotton, to tbe value ot *}». grand larceny; Mr. Burnett, to amend section 3,743 of the Code, so aa to punish careless and wilful setting of woods on fire; also, to amend section 3,- 610, so ss to make better provision for tbe punishment of persons receiving stolen property ; Mr. Barnett, to amend section 3,6A3, so as more effectually to punish the carrying of ooncealed weapons, except in asses of apprehended attack, or setting out on a journey ; also, to amend the elec tion laws and to prescribe tbe mode of registration. Mr. Mitcholl introduced a bill to regulate the eleotion of municipal officers in Montgomery—ordered to n second reading. The House took up the report seating tbs Democratic members eleot from Barbour county, and it was de bated to tbe hour of adjournment. PERSEVEREI The farmers of tbe Booth, east of the Mississippi river, initiated a beneficial reform in their plantation economy this year, by*de voting more labor and atten tien to food crops. True, they only made a beginning, preparatory to further steps in the same direction if tbey should find the experiment beuitteial. The object of this article is to urge a ooutinuenoe of the experiment for another year. Every planter may not diatiaotly see wherein be has been benefitted. But when we red Set that, in spite of the slight diminution of the ootton crop effected in this way, the crop of tbe oountry is'still too large for it to command a good price, we can form an idea of the depression that would have followed had half a million bales more been added, which would probably have been done but for the larger area devoted this yaar to grain crops. A half million bales mors would probahly have sunk the prioe of ootton to a figure barely payiug the expense of production. The late de cline in price is attributable mainly to large receipts, and nothing ia plainer than that future prioee depend mainly upon receipts indicating a crop above or below the general estimates. Planters may also, in many individual rases, form a correct conclusion an to whether they have been benefited by plant iug more grain snd leas eottoa this year, by contiaating their years' opera< tiona with those of some neighbor who adhered to the nearly all cotton rcutiac. Tbe other day we were conversing with a planter of Russell county, Alabama, about bis yeans' operations. He farms on a small scale, working only two mules He complained that he had brought ia his last bale of cotton, except one pledged to tbe payment of rent, and that he bad not bantu able to settle in full either his gro- oery or dry goods account in Columbus He had divided between them, leaving still seventy or eighty dollars unpaid. This seemed a very bad showing ia i'self, but when the unfortnuate farmer added 'nMs —Haven large droves of turkeys, num bering 1,000 to 1,100 in ell, were driven dopn Feaehtree street in Atlanta on Wednesday. —The gin-house of Mr. L.
