A French ovuic, upon the restoration of the Bourbons, remarked : “ They have forgotten nothing—they have learned nothing.’ 1 Shall wo be subject-to the same sarcasm ? Wbat can we do with out corn ? In the old (itne*, just before the great crash of ’3t>-*37, when everybody was run mad ou the subject of Cottou, just ae we are now, a team —a poor, lean mule team —was staggering up Main street under a heavy load. The owner, in a sort of apologetic way, remarked to a knot of friends. “Upon my word, I wish I did know what would fatten-my mules. I’ve tried nux vomica and assa feedita, and every sort of thing, and it don't seem to do a particle of good.” “ Did you ever try corn ?” quietly asked the Diogenes of the party. “If not, perhaps you had better try it.” We would warn tho people to make corn. Lessees don't seem to care about it—they come to suck out the sub stance, and then, like wild geese, emi grate North with their craws full. See to it, you lessors ; make it a sine qua non that your lessees shall raise corn. Your country demands it. A. full corn crib is better than a full crib of any other kind. Chickens, mules, darkies, and every living thing rejoice in it. Who have been the most successful planters in old times ? The men of corn. We are astonished so hear sensible men advising people to make cotton to buy corn with. Even the old Indians have got drunk. We know some targe plantations that haven't got enough shucks to make their horse collars. Os course the owners of such places “ain’t worth shucks.” The startling announcement was made in town yesterday, that there wasn’tasaek of corn in town. Are we to have a famine? It seems so, It we bow down to cotton and worship it and neglect corn, we ar& bound to end in famine. Would that some Joseph could give us a lecture on the subject 1 He is the only statesman, of whom we ever heard, who got corned in the right way. Look at your situa tion. You are now, in military parlance in a l, cttl du sac," made of gunny sacks. You've got to borrow the money to buy the corn ; you’ve got to feed the mules to haul the coru ; you’ve got to pay the driver to drive the mules to haul the corn,- you have to grease the wagon, etc., and yon can run oh in the style of the “cow with the crumply horn,” and pile up the disasters that spring from empty corn cribs. Don’t be satisfied with ordinary crops, because we’ll have to begin to suck roasting ears before the moustache is off of them. Let all the editors in our land raise the corn song, and let the people join in the chorus, .“raise corn !’’ Let us do it quick before uncle lias a chance to tax us. It is the only thing that isn’t stamped—that's one consola tion. It’s time for ns to speak out and warn the people, plant corn ! May God bless us next season with a cornucopia of corn I —Natchez Courier. The Care of Pianos. —lt should be remembered that tbe pianoforte is susceptible of the change of tempera ture, and when tuned in one tempera ture, will be out of tune in another. Good and well made piano-fortes will stand if they are tuned at proper periods. Many people, as they wish to avoid expense, will let their instru ments remain long out of tune, which is a great detriment to them, as they are less likely to stand well after having been so left. A piano-forte ought justly to be tuned twice a year, at least ; first, when you commence with a fire in your room ; second, when a fire is discontinued, liy following this course you have the best guarantee that the instrument will remain in tune for the longest period of time. Again, the instrument shouiij not lie suffered to remain below concert pitch ; if it is for years tuned below, it will never after stand up to pitch without a great deal of labor, if indeed it ever stands at all. Many otherwise beautiful instruments are nearly or quite ruined for want of proper attention to these simple facts. Yet it will not answer for a professional tuner to recommend these things ; if lie does, the people will suspect him imme diately of selfish motives, and say that he is planning for his own advantage. Tijk Last or a Gi.okious Band.— telegram announces the death, ac Edin burg, Saratoga county, New York, of Samuel Downing, the last surviving sol dier who was actually under arms in the war of the Revolution. Mr. Down ing’s age has been stated at from 100 to 106, but we are not ahle to determine the precise figure. He enlisted in New Hampshire, near the close of the war, and after peace found his way to New York, in which State lie lived tor more than half a century. There have been a dozen or more of “last of the pension ers," but we presume that the decease of this well known citizen closes the list, and that there is not now a man living who actually bore arms in our great straggle for liberty. Sixty seven years have gone by since Washington died, and lie was almost the first (not slain in batlle) to lead the long array ot patriots whose glorious line is fin ished by the departure of Samuel Down ing.— N. Y. Timm. Eccentric Pkayek. —ln a work enti tled “English Eccentricities,” recently published in London, may be found the following extempore prayer attributed by the author to a certain Mr. Ward : “Lord, thou kuowest that I possess nine houses in the city of Loiidou, and that I have recently bought an estate in the County of Essex. Preserve, there fore, I pray Thee, the two Counties of Middlesex and Essex from fires and earthquakes, and as I have an hypothe cated estate in Hertfordshire, look also in compassion upon that County; as to the other portions of the county, do us Thou wjit. Lord, consolidate the Royal Bank that it may honor its notes. Let all my debtors he or become honest men. Give a prosperous and Bpeedy passage to the sloop Mermaid, for the insurance of which I am responsible. Preserve me Irotn robbers ana brigands. Make all my servants faithful and devoted, that they may watch over my interests aud relax not their deliaence by day or •ty night."
