TUESDAY. JANUARY 9, 1S72.
The parting with the old year and
kind greeting for the new one are agaiu
extended by the Southern Recordei, to its
respected patrons. In days past this
has often been done by those whose pen
is now silent and mute, while the many
who received the kindly salutation, “a
happy new year’s” are alike death to
its greeting—alike to both the record is
closed—to those who still know them,
selves, readers of the Recorder, we would
express our kind wishes and begin the
year with the hope that the rich exper
iences of the past will be more fully
realized in our relations to them than
ever before—wc have labored in the past
but will labor still harder to make the
weekly visits of the Recorder to the
hearth-stones of its patrons a welcome
guest, fruitful of all good things; Like
old wine may it ever be said of the Re
corder, that it mellows and refines by
age never crabbed or sour by any po
litical disturbances or insipid from men
tal imbecility to make good our promises,
wc are happy to announce that for the
year 1S72, we have secufed the services
of Cil 0. P. Crawford, as editor, and
we consider this announcement the
strongest guarantee that our promises
are not idle words. We leave Cel. C-
to make his own conge in our next is
sue. Having the editorial chair so ably
filled wc give ourselves with renewed
energy to the varied duties of the office.

The negro fellow Howard has been
convicted in Rochester, N. Y., of the
diabolical crime with which he was ac
cused. Previous to his trial, a large
number of the citizens of Rochester for
the purpose of avenging the gross out
rage upon a highly respected lady un
dertook to lynch the villain, when they
were fired upon by the military and sev
eral killed. On reaching the Peniten-
uu me 9tn, ue seemea
very happy to get safely within the
walls. He put his thumb to his nose
and made a fan of his fingers, bowiug to
the crowd outside as he entered the
walls. Verily, tile spirits of old John
Brown and Kansas Jim Montgomery
have depaited from the sunny South
and are now reveling North.
Tjie Swedes.—The Macon Telegraph
says that five of the Swedes who recent
ly arrived ia Monroe county, gave their
employers leg bail ou Sunday, 31st ult„
and made for tbe Griffin and North Ala
bama Railroad, probably under the en
ticement of another Swede at work for
that company, and who is said to have
been an agent for procuring labor for tbo
road. They were arrested ou Thursday
and are now lodged in Monroe county
jail, where they will be taught that la
bor engagements must be complied with
Col. James Montgomery, of Kansas
Free State memory, died at his home in
that State last week, at tbe age of 58
years. From 1S56 to 1S61 he was the
central figure of the Free State cause in
Kansas, During the war he commanded
a regiment of colored troops. He was
one of the most intimate friends and ad»
visersof John Brown.—Balt. Sun.
We know it is enjoined upon us, says
the Macou Telegraph, to say nothing but
good of those who have crossed the dark
river, hut we cannot refrain from adding
that this was the wretch who wantonly
burned Darien, in this State, and com
mitted all sorts of atrocities on the Geor
gia and Florida seaboard. He was a fit
companion and friend for that old horse
thief and murderer, John Brown, and as
they were diabolical in their lives we
hope they have not in death been divid
ed. The knowledge of that fact would
he consolation sufficient for us.

1 he usefulness of earthquakes was a
favorite subject with the late Sir John
Herschel. Were it not for the changes
in the earth’s crust which are constant
ly being effected by the action of sub.«
teranean forces, of which the earthquake
is the raost active manifestation, there
can be no doubt that the action of tbe
se* beating upon the lands, together with
the denuding power of rain, would in
evitably cover the entire earth with one
vast ocean. ‘‘Had tbe primeval world
been constructed as it now exists,” says
Sir John Herschel, “time enough has
elapsed, and force enough directed to
that end has been in activity, to have
long ago destroyed every vestige of
land.”

claimed war against the T " kJlte “ States
Government, last rv.uay. He charac
terized his o- u arrest and that of his
piebald Legislative troupe by the United
Status Marshal, as a conspiracy to over

and liberty, and substitute martial law
therefor. Ho warned the people to be
particularly careful how they lent aid
and countenance te *uch a performanca
and boasted that the State bad ample
means to defend and protect herself.
Now will President Grant dare to knock
that chip off of Wormouth’e shoulder?

The Labor Question.—We are pleas
ed to learn that leis difficulty has been
encountered by planters in procuring
labor for the present year than at any
time since the close of the war. The
negroes have, in a great measure, over
come the desire for yearly changes, and
are generally willing and anxious to re
main with their present employers. As
a general thing, there has been but lit
tle change in the rates paid for labor.
The prices given last year form the basis
of most new contracts. There has been
also quite a decided reaction among tbe-
negroes in favor of the “stipulated wa
ges” system. For several years past “a
part of the crop” was the favorite mode
of remuneration. Now they prefer stat
ed wages. This change iu their views
b . a *,i 0UbU - eSi r b - e — JSSSA ter fast
fwo crops and the very short yield of the
year just passed.
From all quarters we learn that the
best of feeling exists between the two
races, aud that planters and laborers are
preparing for the coming crop with unit
ed zeal aud energy.

Grant And Washington.—Pimp For
ney, by way of a set off to the charges
against Grant, with which the press of
the country of all sections and all parties
is teeming, is resurrecting the long for
gotten scandals which the malignants
of his day uttered against the great and
good Washington. Forney exultantly
demonstrates that if disreputable, dis
honest and tyrannous acts are laid at the
door of President Grant, to was Presi
dent Washington made the subject of
similar denunciations aud abuse. For
ney clearly makes out his case. What
he says is true. But, unfortunately for
the country, the charges against Grant
are true while tbe slanders against Wash-
ington were false.—Savannah News.
Probable Homicide in Lee Coun
Ty .—We learn that a man named Green
Mayo was shot and supposed mortally
wounded, at Starkeville, ou Saturday
afternoon, by the Sheriff of the county.
We did not hear all the circumstances
of the killing, aud therefore will not at
tempt to set them forth. The Sheriff
had, however, as we are informed, been
greatly provoked to use violence , by
Mayo, upon whose property he had been
ordered to levy an execution. — Macon

The Murder of Fish.—The cowardly
assassination of Col. James Fisk, last
Saturday night, excites universal disgust
and indignation. Ho was a bold, dash
ing, reckless man—with many of those
personal endowments which attach and
enthuse the crowd—just and liberal to
his dependents and profusely generous
to bis friends; while his tremendous per
sonal energy was constantly setting on
foot business enterprises as profitable to
others as to himself. His death illus
trates the personal insecurity which
must ever attach to a life of intrigue, to
which many a man wiser than James
Fisk has fallen a victim. The manner
of it was cowardly in the extreme. The
assassin pleads ^phrenzy, but the facts
suggest mere malice.— Telegraph.
The Light of Truth is slowly break
ing upon the cotteu-buyiug public, and
they are beginning to see that the crop
of 1S7I will he short of four million
bales. Our respected friends who con
tracted to deliver cottou next May for
fourteen cents will have a painful duty
to perform ; hut if by any means they
can adjourn it to the May following,
they will be able to fill their bills more
easily. Cotton in Macon has advanced
about half a cent since Saturday, and in
New York the same, and abont a quar
ter of a cent in Liverpool. The sales
in Liverpool on Saturday were 30,000
bags. In short, we are going up at a
time to set planters wild, but if they will
only remember how we shall be coming
down next year, fewer hones will be
broken.
A Terrible Fire occurred in Detriot on
the last day of last year. A clerk in a
drug store, in the act of carrying a box
containing twelva bottles of Rhigolene
into the basement, dropped the box—the
contents exploded, and filling the whole
four story building in a moment with a
highly volatile and inflammable gas
which took fire instantaneously—the
whole building was in a sheet of flame
Of the inmates four were burned to
death.—Macon Telegraph.
Nearly half of the internal revenue of
Great Britain is derived from inland du

this torture smilingly and unmoved, he
is considered fit for the trials of matri-
mony. ^

acid, which is diffused through the air.
When we multiply this amount by the
population of the world, and add the
product of the respiration of the low r
animals, together with that formed by
combustion, putrefaction and fermenta
tion, the quantity of this poisonous gas
thus daily poured into the atmosphere
is enormous, and but for some compen
sative medium, tho air would soon be
imfit to support life. But by the beau

is poisouous to animals, affords food for

soil will not produce ciops. This ex
haustion is caused by a deficiency of
those mineral ingredients which are nec
essary to a healthy growth ; and in or
der to restore fertility to a barren soil,
a liberal application of manures is neces
a ry. Even the deficiency of a single
one of these mineral ingredients would
render all the efforts of a farmer una
vailing. Suppose, for example, that a
soil contains every substance necessary
to grow large crops, with the single ex
ception of phosphoric acid. No amount
of labor would suffice to produce any re
turns. Without phosphoric acid no plant
will grow ; aud so it is with other sub
stances. Hence, the importance of
keeping up the fertility of the soil has
in all ages been regarded as a matter of
vital importance ; and long before the
theory of the action of manures was un
derstood, they were widely used, because
experience had demonstrated their ne
cessity.
Ia the selection of manures the intel
ligent planter will apply only those
known to be efficacious. In the manner
in which farming in this section of coun
try is conducted, it is necessary To re
sort to a great extent to concentrated
commercial manures.
Let them wonder for a while, it
won’t hurt them, and it certainly
won’t you. By and by you can
have a fine house and fine, furniture
of your own, and they will wonder
again, and come billing and cooing
around you, iike so many pleased
fools. Try the experiment. Live
within your means.—Maine Farmer.
Bright Hours and Gloomy.—
Ah, this beautiful world ! indeed, I
, know not what to think of it. Some-
... n ? san y ac ' j times it is all gladness and sunshine,
counts they arc cheaper than barn yard ii -Pur . n
.r, I aud heaven itself lies not tar off;
and then it suddenly changes, and i
manure, as they require comparatively
little labor in their application ; while
at the same time they have other ad
vantages which our best planters hare
not failed to appreciate. One of the
leading fertilizers of this class, which
has been used with the greatest success,
is Whann’s Raw Bone Superphosphate.
Thousands of the roost intelligent plant
ers in this and the adjoining States have
pronounced this article to be unrivaled
as a crop producer, while its effects on
worn out soils have been no les9 re
markable than its geucral success in all
parts of the country. On cotton espe
cially it has produced the most flatter
ing results, and has given greater sat
isfaction than most other fertilizers in
the market.
The cottou plant, besides requiring
a liberal quantify of phosphoric acid,
likewise needs ammonia, salts of potash
and soda, lime, magnesia and those oth
er elements of fertility which are so
contained in Whann’s Phosphate as to
dark and sorrowful, and the clouds
shut our the day. In the lives of the
saddest of us there are bright days
like this when we feel as if w - e could
take the great world in our arms.
Then come gloomy hours when the
fire will not burn on our hearths,
and all without and within is dis
mal, cold and dark. Believe me,
every heart has its secret sorrows,
which the world knows not, and oft
en times we call a man cold when
he is only sad.
