BSTElection on Tuesday, November 3d.
The Campaign in this District.
Col. Blount spoke in the Represents"
tiva Hall of the Capitol, on Tuesday the
20th inst. The audience was not as large
wo could have wished, but those who
were present glistened very attentively
whilst the Col. related many of the ras
calities of the party now in power. He
was particularly severe upon the Civil
Rights bill and depicted with much ener
gy the evils of that infamous measure
which the Radicals are trying to force
upon the country. But the most impor
tant portion of the Col's, discourse, was
the warning he gave the Democracy, not
to be caught napping at the November
election. We fear we are in some danger
of that very thing in this district. The
people can’t be persuaded there is any
danger when there is no enemy in sight.
If Mr. Gove is a candidate at all, he is
very still about it. We have not seen
him or heard from him during the cam
paign. But we are told a still hunt is a
part of his tactics and that he operates
in the dark. We must not be deceived
but on Tuesday the third of November,
every Democrat should be at his post and
vote and work as if the next Congress
depended on his vote.
The Campaign in Alabama.
The great efforts made by the admin
istration to defeat the Democracy in Ala
bama has given unusual interest to the
campaign in that State. The efforts
made to defeat the white men in that
State are mean beyond all comparison.
In some counties large numbers of the
most influential mon have been arrested
and carried off to Mobile or Huntsville to
keep them from voting afc-the November
election. In-other counties a great num-
cummnnmi to appear as witnesses
df(y before the election, at places
wliern there can be no courts, and of
course no occasion for them only to keep
them from voting. But amidst all of
these discouragements, the Democracy
of Alabama keep up their courage and
don’t, scare worth a cent. These efforts
of Attorney General Williams to keep
them from voting, will perils diminish
* the Democratic majorities in some coun
ties, bitt it will nerve those that are left
to greater exertion, and we have groat
confidence that the Democracy will carry
the State and gain two or three Congress-
TviAn iu-KXkite lit’ Will’ 0 *"" oil r '* *»»•*
soldiers, backed up by a whole army of
Denuty U. S. Marshals. But the efforts
of {he administration to carry the elec
tion in Alabama and Louisiana shows to
what desperate means they will resort to
maintain their ill gotten power, but we
believe this spell is broken and the time
is near when these tools of Despotism
will stand before the tribunals of the
country to answer for their misdeeds and
suffer the penalty of their crimes.
Tttesr York, New Jersey and Penn
sylvania.
Advices from the above three States
are favorable for sweeping Democratic
victories in November. If these three
States, or any two of them, give Demos
cratic majorities in November, the reign
of Radicalism is over. The Republicans
can have no hope of success with these
great central States together with Ohio
an l Indiana against them. But besides
these there is a prospect of great Demo
cratic gains in Illinois and Wisconsin
These together with the large Democratic
gains which they will receive from the
South, will in all probability give us a
Democratic majority in the Representa
tive branch of the next Congress. The
Senate will still contain a majority of
Radicals, but this majority will be great
ly reduced after the election of this year
bo that if the Radicals intend to inflict
the South with a 113- more of their evils
and persecutions they must do it the
coming winter, whilst the old corrupt
members of Congress retain their places.
But after they have received such loud
warnings from the people, will they close
their ears and go on in their warfare upon
the South? We shall see. They have
committed most of their crimes and their
blunders for the benefit of the negro, and
we predict they will see the negroes de
sert them in their greatest need. Sambo
likes to be on the strongest side and will
have no more use for the Radicals as
soon as they get into the minority.

Geo. E. Badger, formerly United States
Senator from South Carolina, Stephen
Smith, his client, and John Little, color

jure detective Hester. They were arres
ted during a session of the Circuit court
of Sumter county, some 200 miles from
Mobile. Upon delivery to the United
States Marshal here they were released
on parole, to appear before Commissioner
Gilbert tomorrow. The warrant was
issued by a commissioner resident at the

An amusing jiassage at arms occurred
between Mrs. J. G. Swisshelm and Mima

at Chicago, on Thursday last Of course

Anthony had spoken in .favor of universal
female suffrage, Mrs. Swisshelm obtained
the floor and said that she was in favor
of allowing tax-paying women to vote,
but the women had injured their own
CausfiJjw demanding too much; they had
drawn their bow at the Sun, and might
strike the Moon. She liked men better
than she did women. If the women, in
stead of making an issue against the men,
would only sit down by the side of the
men—they might even sit on one of their
knees—and ask for their rights, they
would be more likely to receive them.
Mrs. Swisshelm concluded by saying that
she knew more about the men did
Miss Anthony.

Atlanta, Oct. 22d 1874.
We left Milledgeville under the pleas
ant conductorship of Capt. Whiting, and
had a^pcedy run to Mat on. When the
train for Atlanta bad ed under the car-
shed, the rpsh or occupancy of the seats
showed that that fr irful monster termed
a “crowd” was to be wrestled with on our
nignt journey hither. We succeeded in
getting a comfo table seat in some re
spects, but in othe s shockingly uncomfor
table. We still 1 .aintain that at last one
half of o.e car on every passenger train
should he give a exclusively to gentlemen
wao do r ot use tobacco. In this age of hor-
distinguished ability in Georgia. No bet-.
ter statistician could bo found in the
world Ihn.n this pains-taking, accurate
and labor-loving gentleman. Circulars
will be sent from this Department to a
number of gentlemen of Baldwin county
whose names we furnished to Mr. Smith:
and we trust they and others will take a
proper interest in this important move
ment.
We most not neglect to mention a sig
nificant circumstance here. While “in
terviewing" onr friend Smith, statistician
as aforesaid, in looking about the well
fitted apartments of the Agricultural De
partment, we trod on a loose plank in the
floor which yielded to our weight some
what, and gavej an audible creak. We
stepped wanly aside, advancing toward
the door, remembering all that we had
heard about the insecurity of this crude
pile of brick and mortar built in violation
of all the rules of architectural taste.
But Smith heroically held his post in the
midst of apparent danger, assuring us
that the creaking was from a plank which
he had loosed to remedy a gas-pipe, or
purs- e a rat, we do not rerne mbe • u j 'Il
We composed ourself at this assurance;
but our calme • judgment still ccl-c’e.ans
ridtoba 'o-dissipation, a fere gentlemen
do not use tobacco, and to them the dense j the building as a snitab’e Caprio 1 . We

tours is extremely unpleasant. At
Forsyth, however, this formidable “un
pleasantness” hid its diminished head in
the presence of a greater. A number of
Ocher px c sergers came aboard considera
bly under ihe influence of a very noisy
a: dele of w liskey; and from that point to
Atlanta in the dawning light of Wednes
day nrorninj, the uproar of yells, vulgar
essaj s at wit, vociferous guffaws, oaths
and obscene language, and at one time a
row among the crowd of vociferators with
drawn weapons, convinced us that a
peaceful cloud of even tobacco smoke
would ha\e been a happiness. We whis
pered to the Conductor a complaint; but
he said he was powerless. At Barnes-
ville, and at Griffin, a number of the nois
iest of these revelers went out on the
streets in quest of more whiskey, yelling
as the r went. We really hoped that the
police of those worthy towns would quiet
the noise by an arrest or two ; but ex
pressing our surprise that it was not
done, our friend informed us that thes9
villages (Barnesville and Griffin) were
unincorporated, and the constable and
Justice of the Peace were doubtless asleep.
We were led by the sore experience of the
night to two conclusions: First, Ade
quate regulations ought to be made by
all railroads to protect peaceable passen
gers against such rowdyism ; and Second.
The new generation of youths just come
up to manhood are deteriorating in man-*
ners and in morals as compared with their
predecessors. A youth whose name “Ben”
was yelled a thousand times by his com
rades, was the ring-leader of the night.
We pray that “Ben” (we know not his
name in full) may bo reformed for the
benefit of future railway passengers, if
nothing more.
We found Atlanta thronged to overflow
ing with visitors to the State Fair. It
was amusing to converse with these jolly
Atlantese, in ecstacies at the immense
crowd the Fair had drawn hither. “Ah !
glad to see you ! Come to the Fair, have
you ?” “No” was our stereotyped answer,
T came on other business. ’ “But you
are going out to the Fair Ground?" “No,
I shall return home as soon as possible.”
The look of utter incredulity with which
my last reply was unniformly received
showed what an Elysium of happiness
the Atlantese are enjoying.
At eleven o’clock yesterday we repaired
to the Room of the Chamber of Commerce
of the city to attend the First Annual
meeting of the Georgia Associated Veter
ans af the Mexican War of 1846-7-8.
About forty of the Veterans were in at
tendance. Since their organization last
year in Macon, more than two hundred
have been enrolled in the State as mem
bers. The meeting was highly interesting.
Ool IWid S. JoWlou of \I«<Uoon read his
Report, and declined a re-election to the
office of President. Gen. W. S. Walker, of
Atlanta was then elected President for
the ensuing year ; Col. David S. John
ston was elected First Vice President
(which he was prevailed on to accept) and
the following other elections were also
made :
Vice Presidents ; Gen. E. L. Thomas of
Covington; Capt. John Jones of Atlanta;
Col. W. J. Magill of Atlanta; Capt. H. J.
Sargent of Newnan, Capt. John McMa
hon of Savannah, and Capt. J. B. Smith
of Cuthbert.
Executive Committee (any three of
whom have power to act): Capt. John
Jones, Col, W. J. Magill, Maj. C. C. Ham
mock, and Mr. John R. Wallace, of Atlan
ta; Gen. Alfred Iverson of Columbus;
Gen, A. H. McLaws of Augusta, and
Capt. Charles A. Hamilton of Macon.
Col. W. G. McAdoo of Milledgeville
was re elected Secretary and Treasurer.
Col. Johnston, on retiring from the
chair, made some graceful and earnest
remarks, and Gen. Walker on assuming
the duties of President, expressed his
thanks for the honor conferred and indul
ged in some eloquent and spirit stirring
reminicences of the Mexican War. It is
earnestly requested that every Veteran
of the Mexican War not already enrolled
will send his name to the Secretary, Col.
W. G. McAdoo, Milledgeville, Georgia,
to whom communications on other sub
jects may be addressed also.
Through the courtesy of Col. H. D.
Capers, we were favored with an invita
tion “in the words and figures following,
to wit": “The Surviving members of
Gordon’s Brigade “A. N. V.” respectfully
ask the pleasure of your Company at a
Social Re- Union to be held at the Hall of
tho House of Representatives in Atlanta on
Wednesday night the 21st inst. at 8^
o’clock. Respectfully, H. D. Capers, J.
M. Goldsmith, J. M. Page, J. M. Jemi-
gan, Hugh A. Haralson, Committee of
Arrangements.”
We went; and a more brilliant affair we
have never witnessed. Gov. Smith pre
sided. Gen. Lawton of Savannah, in the
name of the ladies, presented a silver cup
to Gen. Gordon with the inscription
'Our Hope," followed by a speech of
«*T»<iiiW;,l,]« length and characteristic
ability. Gen. Gordon's response was all
that might have been expected from his
high genius as an orator, and his magnifi
cent gallantry in arms. Pathos and hu
mor succeeded each other, and the hear
ers alternated between laughter and tears
Gen- Evans was next called np by the
persistent throng who accrued detcrrnm
ed to hear him, and mode one of the most
telling and peculiarly eloquent speeches
we ever heard. He too, held the com
plete mastery over the smiles and the
tears of the vast throng that filled every
inch of space on tho floor and in the gal
leries. Gov. Smith made a brief and fe
licitous speech, as did Gen. W. S, Walk
er and others. Indeed we did not hear
a dull or common-place speech on the
occasion. Nor was the occasion one sole
ly, of a “feast of reason and a flow of soul.”
The gallant “surviving members” made a
“charge" on an exquisitely spread table,
and the din of demolition of delicacies, and
the brisk fusilade of uncorking cham
paigne bottles made a hilarious mimic
battle cheering to behold.
To-day we visited the Capitol (“so call
ed," better known as Kimball’s Opera
House) where we had a passing glance at
the Supreme Court in session, apparent
ly unmoved by the swirl of tho vast
crowds in the streets. We had the pleas
ure of meeting Col. J. R. Sneed former-
editor of the Savannah Republican and
one of the ablest newspaper editors of
Georgia. He ought now to be conduct
ing a leading journal of some city. We
also visited in a lofty perch in the afore
said “Opera-House.” the “Department of
Agriculture” organized under the Act of
last February. The Commissioner ap
pointed by Gov. Smith, Thomas P. Janes
(whom we met for a few moments) im
presses us as a gentleman well suited to
his place. Here as “Statistician” of this
Department, we had the pleasure of meet
ing the gifted and indefatigable J. Henly
smith, well known «c a /onaar editor ot
house,” and find better rooms in the
stanch old Capitol at Milledgeville so
soon as the Constitutional Convention
shall have spoken. There, no creaking
floors are to be found among its stanch
timbers.
We have met here many members elect
to the next legislature; and niauy of these
and others have expressed to me their
warm congratulation on our selection of
the able and widely-known Col. McKinley
as our Representative. He will be warm
ly greeted next January by all the true
friends of Gergia’s prosperity as contra
distinguished from Atlanta’s selfish poli
cy. We may rely on one thing, beyond
doubt, and that is a Constitutional Con
vent ion will be called. No patch-work
of “Amendments” by Legislative tinkering
will be tolerated by the in coming Legis
lature. A Convention will restore the
Capital to Milledgeville.
Among the literary on dits here, we
were pleased to hear that Mrs. Maria J.
Westmoreland, author of “Heart Hun-
gry,” who had separated from her hus
band and essayed a literary career
in New York, has returned to her old
home. A reconciliation having been ef
fected between the husband and wife,
they are now again happily re united for
life, as we trust.
We close, determined to take the train
homeward an hour hence; glad to escape
from the dust and throng of this over
crowded city; rejoicing that we can retire
without having been subjected to the tor
ture of elbowing our way through the
dense masses of human beings who crowd
the Fair Grounds, as we are informed by
many who have escaped alive from tho
scene and had strength enough left to
tell us about it. W G. M.

She Results of the Great Victory.
[Special Correspondence Chronicle and Sentinel ]
Grkenbury, Ind., October 19, 1874.
The elections in Ohio and Indiana re
sulted in an unexpected Democratic tri
umph. It was generally believed that
both States would be carried by the
Democracy, but no one anticipated such
a glorious victory. Every county, every
township and every votingprecinct shows
large and satisfactory gains. This State
had been outrageously gerrymandered
for both Legislative and Congressional
purposes, making it impossible, the Radi
cals thought, for the Democrats ever to
get a majority of the members of Con
gress or a majority in the Legislature.
But we have eight out of the thirteen
Congressmen and a majority in the lower
branch of the Legislature and twenty-
three Democrats to twenty four Republi
cans in the Senate, besides there are
three or four independents who will more
likely vote with the Democrats than with
the Republicans. At all events we will
elect a Democratic United States Senator
in place of Daniel D. Pratt, one of cham
pions of the Civil Rights bill. In this
county, which has always been Republi
can, the Democrats received a majority
of 157 for their State ticket, a gain of
319 over the vote of two years ago. This
election does not leave more than half
a dozen counties giving Republican ma
jorities in the southern half of the State.
Among the Congressmen elect we will
mention Judge Jeptha D. New, from this
District, who, we believe, was a classmate
of Elder J. S. Lamar, of your city, at Be
thany College. Hon. W. S. Holman has
also been returned. The last Legislature
had fixed up a District especially for him.
They made it as strongly Radical as pos
sible, giving him a majority of 1,412 to
overcome. This he did, and besides re
ceived a majority of about 2,300. He is
a man of the people, and one who cannot
well be spared from the halls of Congress.
Another District, fixed up to return a Re
publican Congressman, was the Tenth j
Who Cook up Southern Outrages.
The Scoundrels l.aaditalel Williams Ra-
play* SAwenr Away the Lirn and l.ifc-
rrlirs al Ihe Maathera People
Washington, October 16.
The Attorney General employed six
weeks ago two consummate villains nam
ed Hester and Beach, and sent them into
Sumter county. Alabama, for the purpose
of inciting ignorant and vicious men to
violence against the negroes. These two
scoundrels came into Alabama from the
direction of North Caralina, disguised as
mountaineers, and having with them
whisky and tobacco, which they retailed
to negroes and poor whites. They talk
ed loudly about what the white people
ought to do with the niggers, what they
would do if they had a chance, and in
this manner sought to elicit expressions
of disloyalty from those they had made
drunk.
They told the white people of plots
to murder them, which they pretended
they had heard negroes talking about
while they were loafing about their shop
drinking; and urged the organization of
White Leagues and Ku-Klux Kans as
offsets to the negro plots. In one or two
instances they pretended to know that
negroes were assembled in particular lo
calities, and offered to lead the whites to
the spot and make short work of the
black villains: but they never succeeded
in leading even a drunken man into any
adventures of this sort. The utmost
that they succeeded in doing was, as they
allege, to worm out some of the negroes
the fact that they had been parties to the
murder of Billings ; that they had over
heard the whites plotting it, and not told
for fear. These negroes gave the names
of certain whites as the parties who were
concerned in the murder, and thereupon
Beach went to Mobile and obtained war
rants for the arrest of the parties denoun
ced.
The evidence against these men would
not warrant a United States Commission
er in holding them one moment, yet he
commits then and refuses bail; and now
the news is received here this evening
that fourteen more innocent men have
been arrested on the affidavits of Beach
and Hester, and doubtless arrests will
continue until enough whites are locked
up to insure the election of Charles Ana
nias Hays to Congress. Hester is one of
the fellows who was used in Ku-Klux
trials, in North and South Carolina to
convict innocent men. He was an appli
cant for the position of Chief of the Secret
Sen ice of the Treasury Department, and
failing to get it, came into the Sun office
to complain of the treatment he had re
ceived at the hands of tho men he had
served. He acknowledged to your cor
respondent that he was heartily sorry
for the part he had played in the Ku-Ivlux
business, and declared that many of the
persons who had been convicted and sent
to the penitentiary were innocent of any
intent to do wrong, having been led astray
by designing men. He said that he would
never again have anything to do with
this sort of business. But it is quite
evident that his necessities were such that
he was only too glad to take Landaulet
Williams’ blood money and go down into
Alabama and begin anew the work of
swearing away the lives and liberties of
the people in order that the men who
had just snubbed him, might thereby
make political capital for their party in
the North. Beach was one of the lazza
roni who went down from New York to
assist Hester and other scoundrels in
carrying the election in North Carolina
in 1872. He is a fellow wdiose evidence
would not be sufficient to convict a chick
en thief in any respectable court
SSome.
We assert, as a rule, the whole tone of
a home depends upon the woman at the
head of it—t e average home ; not the
poverty stricken home, nor the wealthy
home in this average home whether
sunshine shall enter the rooms, whether
the parlor shall be used and enjoyed
whether the table shall be invitingly
spread, whether bright lights and bright
fires shall give warmth and cheer on win
ter nights—whether, in brief, the .home
shall be an agreeable or a disagreeable
place, is usually what the woman deter
mines. Men are powerless in the matter.
Some find solace for a dismal home in
stud}', some occupation in business, some
submit with what patience they can,
others are attracted by the cheer of the
public house, and it is young men who
are apt, in consequence, to drift into bad
habits. Our whole argument refers to
individuals among men who succumb to
bad influence—not the sex, but a class.—

Who is Lieutenant Fitch ?
The Lieutenant Fitch lately honored
by the hand of Miss Sherman, daughter
of “the General of the army," has the
following personal notice in a Brooklyn
paper:
The new son-in-law of the General is
a young man belonging to a poor emi
grant family, lately an apprentice at the
District. The Republican majority in Novelty Works, and received what educa-
this District in the last election was 1,496.
The Democrats placed in nomination Dr.
tion he has at a public school. His fath
er was an Irish laborer of the humblest
W. S. Haymond, well known to your cit- | class, and his only brother who died about
izens as the President of the Chicago i a year ago, was well known as the driver
and South Atlantic Railroad. He over
came all this opposition, and I think it
but prognosticates the success he will
finally meet with in building that great
route from the lakes to the sea; that he
will be a useful member I have no doubt,
and that he will redouble his energies to
accomplish the great work he has under
taken is equally certain.

Grant Don’t Take Advice Worth a
Cent.—The New York Post having ur
ged its contemporary of the Times to
advise General Grant to repudiate the
third term project, the latter replies:
“Perhaps the Post knows that in this
world advice, even good advice, is not
always taken. The President is a very
shrewd man, and when he sees what is
going on he may, perhaps, bo tempted to
put an end to gossip which at first was
simply malicious and absurd, but which
becomes mischievous the moment the
people attach any importance to it. But
as for our venturing to offer advice on
the subject, wo must respectfully decline.
Let tho Post read up the back numbers
of ths official organ at Washington and it
will see why.”
The Pott has expressed the conviction
that the articles in “the official organ at
Washington," advocating the third term
movement, were, if not inspired, at least
authorized by Grant It thinks that good
advice, under such circumstances, would
be impertinent
of an ice cart in Brooklyn, and is a “jolly
good fellow.” Most men in a position
iw>t half so exalted as that of General
Sherman would have frowned upon such
an aspirant for the hand of one of their
daughters ; but what did the General do ?
Why, being satisfied of the meritorious
character of his daughter’s suitor, he not
only approved of his suit, but gave him a
wedding tit for a prince of the blood.
People who were in Washington at the
time all agree that we have had no wed
ding in this county to compare with it in
magnificence since the marriage of Boss
Tweed's daughter. The fashionables of
Brooklyn were startled when they read
of this bri liant wedding and saw that
Assistant Engineer Fitch, or Lieut Fitch,
as he was styled in the reports, belonged
to a Brooklyn family. They ran hither
and thither, inquiring what family of
Fitches it was that had been so honored,
and never dreamed that the little frame
house in a back street in Greenpoint was
their abode, especially as the family resi
ding in it are generally known to their
neighbors by the name of Fitzpatrick.
The New York Tribune cites evidence
to show thaf General Grant is committed
to a third term and to another recon
structionof the Southern States in orier
to insure the success of his candidacy. A
permanent committee of the Outrageous
Convention will set in Washington City
next Winter, and work up Southern
atrocities for Congressional consumption
We think the November elections will
effectually block this little game of the
Administration. A Democratic majority
in the next House of Representatives will
upBet reconstruction and the third term
scheme together.
Life Without Trials,—Would you
wish to live without a trial ? Then you
would wish to die but half a man. With
out trial you cannot guess at your own
strength. Men do not learn to swim on
a table : they must go into deep water,
and buffet the surges. If you wish to
understand their true character—if you
would know their whole strength—of
what they are capable—throw them over
board ! Over with them—and if they are
worth saving, they will swim ashore of
tbemselTeft.
Tea and Sugar in ’Europe.
The growth of tea and sugar in Euro
pean soil are perhaps branches of culture
which we can scarcely expect to be re
munerative in a commercial point of
view. Be this as it may, the sugar-cane
is now grown and sugar manufactured to
some extent in the neighborhood of Mal
aga, Spain. Tea has also been introdu
ced into the southern districts of Sicily,
and though the first attempt made last
year to raise the plants on a large scale
was not successful, owing, it is said to the
injury caused to the plants and seeds by
immersion in sea-water on their transit
from Japan, it is confidently hoped and
believed by the promoters that another
attempt with healthy seeds and plants
will prove quite successful. Meanwhile
tea is being grown at the Cinchona plan
tations in Jamaica, and a sample has
recently "been received at the Kew Mu
seum which was grown and manufactured
as above from Assam tea plants received
through Kew in 1868. So far as the
apperrance of the sample is concerned, it
is roughly manipulated, not being suffi
ciently twisted or curled, and apparently
not sufficiently roasted. Nevertheless,
its manufacture is little inferior to that
of the earliest samples of Assem tea that
appeared in the English market. Its
quality, however, is another thing, for it
produces a very watery infusion of a very
berby flavor, and devoid of the aroma for
which tea is noted. Care, however, in
the cultivation of the plant, as well as in
the selection and manipulation of the
leaves, may in time produce a more mar»
ketable article.

grow clover. Unlike buckwheat, the pea
is not unfriendly to other plants; hence
as there is nothing in itself deleterious
to weeds, it is necessary to have the
ground in good order before sowing, so
that the pea may take entire and early
possession, so as to smother out other
growth by their luxuriance.
In the selection of variety, the large,
black field pea is to be preferred, owing
to its very luxuriant growth and the low
er price. The black-eyed pea makes
much growth, but it is too expensive on a
large scale.
The ground being well plowed and
harrowed, the pea may be drilled in with
the wheat drill, having every alternate
tooth out of gear, at the rate of five pecks
to a bushel and a half to the acre, allow
ing room to cultivate between the rows.
If thorough cleansing is to be obtained—
and this object should always be kept in
view—Thomas’ smoothing harrow should
be passed over the ground before the
pea is up. As the seeds of most weeds
are already in the ground and ready to
vegetate, they will now be easily destroyed
The cultivator ought to pass weekly
between the r dws till the peas are eight
or ten inches high. Some good farmers
sow oats as early as possible and cut
green for bay or soiling, sow peas on the
stubble, and plow in with single horse
plow about three inches in depth.—Oth
ers sow broadcast and cover with the
heavy harrow; every farmer will be gui
ded by the circumstances of the case, but
we think that by drilling so as to be able
to cultivate afterwards, the peas will be
put “where they will do tho most good.”
In drilling, the rows should run at right
angles with the ridges for the following
crop.
When the pods begin to ripen, a por
tion may be gathered for seed, though it
is more economical to buy than to pick
by hand. The balance is to be buried
under with a two or three-horse plow,
having a heavy ox-chain attached to beam
and double tree, to facilitate tbe covering
of the vines. Plowing across the drill
will insure a more equal distribution in
the ground and more uniform covering
of the vines.
The following crop, whether wheat,
winter oats or rye, may be covered by the
smoothing harrow; the teeth being nu
merous, fine, and slanting backwards,
are not apt to catch and drag the vines
to the surface. As wheat likes a com
p$ct soil, and as a rank growth of peas
turned under, is apt to leave the ground
lose and springy, it ought to be rolled
after seeding with clover in the spring,
with a heavy roller.—Report of Commit
tee on the Pea to the Tuckdhoe Farmers
Club.
Colonel Ruffin agreed generally with
the essay read, but called attention to
the fact that there were certain lands
where the pea could not be made avails
ble or useful as an enricher—the soil
not being suited to it. He contended
that the pea would not answer its pur
pose in our stiff clay lands that were
suited to clover; that it flourished only
on the sandy loams, and even there left
the soil so open that a stand of clover
rarely, if ever, would follow its use. Still
its great present effect upon such lands
was great.
An instance was cited of the use of
this pea as the only fertilizer on a farm
near this city for seven consecutive years,
with the following result: This farm (of
sandy loam) at the time produced about
five bushels to the the acre. The first
turning in of peas produced seven bash
els; the second year, nine bushels; the
third year, twelve ; fourth year, sixteen
fifth year, eighteen ; sixth year, twenty
two ; and the seventh year, about twenty-
five bushels to the acre. Still, there was
no evidence of a permanent improvement
of the land. He recommended highly
‘pea fallow” on pea land proper, and that
alone —Southern Cultivator.
