Sew Methods or Cotton- Cnltnre. According to the Yorkvillo, S. C. En quirer, a planter in Edgefield district, in that State, under a process similar to that proposed by Mr. Poullain, raised fifteen handred lbs.Jint cotton to onencreof land. Ho planted two stalbs to the hill, at a dis tance of eight feet each way. The bills were ptepared as if for transplanting fruit trees, being dug down to a depth of twen ty Inches and two feet in diameter. Sans dy loam and raanuro was then filled in, and the seed planted. The enormous yield is attributable to the thorough sub- soiling, the manure and the spado—the tailor being sufficient to allow tho rays ol the sun to penetrate to the lower branch es of the plant and develop those fully. As cotton is assontialiy a sun plant, never thriving unless fully supplied with sun warmth, the philosophy of this method is at once apparent. Another method has been tried in Union district, in tho same State, and with the Dickson improved seed. This is tosubsoil deeply, and plant in hills three feet each way, thinning out the plants when large enough, to two in each hill. About fif teen hundred pounds of seed cotton to the acre was obtained from a five acre field planted in the spring in this. Guano. It will bo a matter of surprise to our readers to know tbai the aggregate quan lily of guauo that passed through Sevan nah up to the first of the present month is 5,836,614 pounds less than last yoar, ano it is said by those well informed that 01 tho first of May the difference will be siil greater. Our figures from Charleston an Augusta show tho same rate of decrease. We read and beard so much about tl largo quantity of guano bougbilbis scas< that wo weto led to an investigation, ex peeling that the consumption would b largely increased. Our surpriso to find a decrease will be shared in by our reed ors.—Savannah Advertiser. CARPETS. Great Bargains in Carpets, FOR CASH OR CITY ACCEPTANCE.

This Company ia prepared to issue policies on the Stock Plan,” the premiums on which are from 30 to 35 per Cent. LESS THAN THE MUTUAL RATES. An opportunity is thus afforded to all who desire In surance, or who may wish, from any cause, to trans fer their policies from other Companies, to place their risks in a The Secret of Yankee Prosperity. Under this head the veteran editor tho Mobile Register, Qon. John Forsyth lias this to say : A southern man, after having made flying trip through the New England States, comos back filled with astonish ment at what be has Been, and perfectly discouraged with bis own section of the country. Tbero he saw little villages stirking in tho midst of barren and un inhabitable mountains, with no surround ings to Bupporl them, evincing a spirit ot life and prosperity unknown to our large towns—therecognized trade centresof our best agricultural ^regions. And in the country he saw little farms producing like first-class English gardens, though on soil originally too poor to have grown bear-grass, and in situations that a South ern man never would have thought capa ble of being converted into a goat pasture. Tho poople, as a general thing seemed contented and prosperous; and if ho had inquired into their circumstances be would have fouod, strange as it may appear, eve ry body in these little villages well off and making money, and tho little farms, with their stone piles hore and there, and their stones constantly working to the surface to be covered off into other piles, and tbeir annual calls for fertilizers to the extent of one hundred and fifty dollars goneral dilapidation, and upon our broad and fertile acres, and reflects that they are per acre, actually clearing their owners from one to three hundred dollars on eve ry acre enclosed. No wonder that be is discouraged when ho looks from this pic turo upon our favorably located towns, and notes their inactivity, their poverty and really, in very many instances, not paying tho expense of culture. One would naturally conclude that thero must bo someseoret connected with all this, and so there is. At the village station tbo close observer would notice piles of cotton bales, a circumstance ealen lated tocreato no particular interest in the South, but there, thousands of miles away from whore cotton should bo grown, it would take the form of mystery. Step ping out upon the platform in quest of a solution, his oars would bo greeted by a sound as of a waterfall, huving a peculiar humming accompaniment—spindles Tin case would be made plain—tho strung, little village would bo recognized as » manufacturing point, and then he would know that wo in a far off section wer digging its prosperity trom our soil—feed ing it into u vigorous lilo upon the very food for which our towns were starving and asking it nothing in return; actually shipping our cotton at ourown expense and then, in order that it might grow fa> on its business, buying its fabrics at it- own profitable figures, and paying trans porlation on them to our homes. What a kind-hearted people we Southerner, must be ! Then for tho socret of success among the farmers. Passingthrough tho country with his eyes open, the close observer would at the proper seasou soon have his attention arrested by an improved mower sweeping offer the meadow under the ex clusive management of a youth of, say sixteen, and accomplishing more in a day than could in that time be wormed ont of a {dozen freedmon with their soy then. A little later and be would seo the younger brother of the youth turning the bay; and then in dne time would come a Still small er boy with a rake, followed by a trio ol little fellows having ail sorts of fun as they, with a hay fork, stored away the crop in the hay loft. In everything done on the farm in New England this same plan is resorted to. If tbo soil mast be prepared, instead of set ting a dozon freedmon at it with tbeir mules and plows to sweat through a week as we would do, oat comes a machine managed by a boy or two, and in an in* credibly short space of timethejob is done and well done. A lotof seed is to besown that would give our hands a long, tedious task; but there a stripling with a seed sower puts it down exactly right and in very short order. And when the crop is ready to be hoed, instead of charging it with a blnok army ready to play for pay, a boy harnesses his nag to a horse hoe, takes bis seat as in a sulky, and rides about over the field hoeing several rows at u time in short, New England works by machinery, and therein lies tho secret of Yankee prosperity. She bassimply chan ged places with as—sbo owns her labor If it wore otherwise, or, indifferent words, did afro have to work on our plan, and do* penaon our kind of labor, and did we not in the goodness of our hearts give her the profits on oar produets, a few years would find her entirely depopulated, a happy hunting ground, upon which the red man might pitch. m To Preserve Eggs for One Year.
