Dr. Willingham had represented Oglethorpe county in the Legislature, and was cor dially i steenicd as a skillful physician and good citizen. lie was a Director in the N’orth-Kastcrn llailroad. and took a warm interest in that enterprise. work within the first year. 1 had at that time grave doubts as to the suc cess of this movement, not from any fear that this class of labor would be again; this soup is made of vegeta bles, and either salted or fresh meat boiled with it, cut up in rations of say one-fourth of a pound for each man, before hand. There is, as every one knows, no difficulty of providing, with our magnificent range of vegetables, such as soup, every day in the year, with hardly any other outlay than the co-t of the meat, and that, every good farmer ought to raise in abundance. What a rich domain our country is for sheep-raising; could we hut do away with the dogs, by legislative enact ments ; and what meat is cheaper and more wholesome than mutton? A good interval is given for dinner.— When white laborers are employed with us, during the long and hottest days, they should stop the morning’s work at eleven o’clock for dinner, and go out at half-past three, working until eight. Starling at four till eleven, and from half-past three to eight would be a good day’s work of eleven hours, taking off the half hour consumed in their second breakfast, and wo inav rest assured that neither employer or employee, would be hurt by such a sys tem. It is customary to give a piece of bread and a drink of light beer to the laborers at four in the afternoon. The evening meal varies in summer and winter. In winter a piece of cheese and bread ; in summer, often boiled potatoes, instead of bread, with a lit tle fried bacon and onions hashed, or, when to be iiad, a howl of clabber, of which all laborers arc fond in the sum mer—are given. The Sunday varies in this, that soup, of tained, fair to the laborer and accepta ble to the employer generally, in this State. And to make it an object of interest, let the wages rise to S12 per month the second year, if mutual sat isfaction be given. If the proper peo ple are brought in, they will be emi grants with ambition to rise, and, of course, the employer must not expect to have them in perpetuity ; but sup pose, we make it the interest for such a striving man to tenant, av 50 acres for us, for a nunih-r of rears, after lie has saved, l>y his labor, enough to go into the tenancy, with the prospect that he can purchase 25 acres after the term has expired at a rate now fixed; which will give him the heart to de vote all his skill, money and attention upon these 50 acres during the tenan cy ; the line, at division being run so that A of best and A of medium land, goto his purchased portion, the rest back to the employer, worth, then, at least 300 percent more per acre than now. For this is the magical effect wherever new freeholdces settle and teuants are placed, and another, and as important a fact will be developed by such striv- our surprise that such a production should have found a place in its columns. Perhaps the best answer to it is to adopt the Scriptural line of argument, on an ob durate subject, and “ answer not a fool according to his folly.” Surely, our con temporary cannot expect to advance the claims of Milledgeville, or reverse the action of the Governor, by such a sense less tirade.
