THE WANTS OF TIIE SOUTH.
Hclwf.h has observed that the newspaper is
an accurate mirror of a countiy’s social and
political condition. A tribe of barlmrians
standing in no need of the counties* appli-
* antes incident to our modern civilization,
feel not the want of type and ink. Assuming
the first proposition to lie just, wc Soutlicm-
\en art etgoying a marvellous degree of pros-
' jierity. From Virginia to Texas, the papers
teem with advertisements of parties catering
to every imaginable physical and intellectual
want. Old firms have resumed business,
new one* are entering the list for public pat
ronage. Professional men, grocers, druggists,
■brokers, and representatives of every other
calling are offering either their skill or their
goods to the favorable notice of the public.
As if to corroborate these cheering evidences
of prosperity, our cities exhibit as much or
more commercial activity tlum in days of
yore. Yet the hectic flush should not be mis
taken for the ruddy bloom of vigorous health.
The fact is patent that the basis of prosperi- ,
ty of any State is proportion; whereas nil j
these advertising parties arc mere factors of j
emnmwtption.
In commercial and manufacturing ‘coun
tries, like the Eastern States, artisan industry
constitutes the substratum of production. In
our purely agricnltual sections, per eontro, the
yearly crops formed Ihe foundation of flic
public weal. As it is we palpably have an
ticipated production. We have taken it for
granted that somehow or other this great
source of income would not lie found lacking,
when it waa actually wanted. We know of
many farmers, rice and cotton planters, who
have entered the commercial arena, ns commis
sion merchants, etc., depending on somebody
else to till the soil. '
Now, is there in other ipuirtcrs manifested
aa adequate and corresponding energy shown
10 make the fields yeild their accustomed
ir.pal Are our agriculturists testing the
truthot tlic adage'‘Help yourself, nmlGod
will help yon f* Arc our country producers
olopting resolute measures to‘-take the bull
by the horns" and wrest from adverse fortune
p. -it ive and actual success*, or are they sank 1 well, reported that wild committee had been una-
j to the acre—their poorest a third of a hale.
I If the farmer should now apply himself assid-
uously to the work, he might be expected
to do as well as one of his negros formerly
did—with the difference in Ids favor of cot
ton at ten cents a pound, and cotton at forty
cents a pound. Should, then, a farmer him
self work on Ills plantation, withont any help,
he might raise right bales ^of cotton, which
would bring him in at the close of the year
sixteen hundred dollars, and, in addition,
might, the same year, raise all the provisions
necessary for his family. If he has sons to
help him, Itis profits might be proportionably
increased.. If he hired help, the same result
would tollow.
Now what young inau can calculate, with
any certainty, on such success, in any calling
which he may choose to follow i .. It is noto
rious that many who enter upon any of the
professions or trades, make miserable failures;
others barely obtain a subsistence, and the
fewest possible reach cither the fortune or the
renown which had attracted them, through a
long life.
We need enter on no argument to prove
the respectability of the occupation of farm
ing. The greatest poets of ancient and of
modem times have extolled the occupation
with their pens: the greatest of earth’s heros
have illustrated it by lifetime devotion to it;
and multitudes which no man can number
have found themselves advanced to fortune,
if not to fame, by the sure and profitable re
turns which this branch of industry has ever
made in return for the labor bestowed.—
Health, respectability, longevity, fortune, arc
the sure rewards of a life devoted to agricul
tural pursuits.
If our young men, and our old ones too,
would cease to repine over past and irreclaim
able losses, think more of the advantages by
which they arc still surrounded, and address
themselves in. good earnest to the delightful
task of making the earth bring forth her fruits
iu her season, wc should see smiles on tlieir
faces, and in the end prosperity and happi
ness.

METHODIST ANNUAL CONFERENCE.
FOURTH DAT.
Macon Ga., Nov. 18,1803.
The conference met at 0 o'clock, a. »., pursuant
to adjournment. Bishop Pierce In the clialr.
Prayer by Rev. J. W. Parks.
The minutes of the preceding day were read and
approved.
The following mcnilrc’re of the conference were
recommended and elected to ciders orders: A. J.
Jarrcl, R. A. Seals.
James Thurman from tbc Methodist Protestant
church was recognized aa deacon In the Methodist
Episcopal church, South.

THE SUPREME COURT.
Ed*. Telegraph—Then are two judges of the
supreme court to be elected by the next legisla
ture, and several persons have been mentioned
to fill the vacancies. Allow me to bring to the
notice of the politic one whom not I alone, bnt
all, I believe,who know him, regard as eminent
ly worthy this position. I mean the Hon. E. H.
■Worriel, who has long been the judge of the Co-
lnmbns circuit. The itiggeslion of his name is
made withont liis knowledge, without the inspi
ration of intimate friendship^ and without any
motive, 1 trust, but that patriotic one of desiring
to see the high offices of the State filled by the
best men. A man of real merit, true worth and
modesty, Judge Worriel ha* never puffed him
self, norgot himself puffed into notice by others:
nor has he used his.office aa a means to advance
him to higher poeition; bat with unusual ability,
patience and honcaty of purpose, has discharged
its duties with an eye single to the public good.
That lie is eminently fit for tbc supreme bench,
all who have been witnesses to the ability with
which ho has acquitted himself in his circuit,
and the purity and dignity of conduct which he
has uniformly exhibited,.will bear cheerful tea-
timony. No party “hack,” involved in the in
trigues of the times, ho is.freo from those preju
dices and associations which so hurt the useful
ness of many who are advanced to places of
trust. j,
If the revolution shall restore us to our normal
state and “ make the office seek the man,” it will
have compensated for many disasters; and judging
from a number of instances in the recent elections
this restoration seems to be in process. It is earn
estly hoped that tbc members of the next legisla
ture will determine the “ log rolling” system to
be obsolete—especially in the matter of these grave
appointments; and, by spontaneous action, Under
them to those who arc beat entitled to them by
peculiar fitness and merit. Bibb.
: Finding New Homes.—What tile .first of
May is to New York city, the first of Novem
ber is to New Orleans—a general moving (lay.
It is a singular infatuation which a great
many people, otherwise ’frith nicely balanced
minds, succumb to, that of thinking it abso
lutely necessary to change their place of resi
dence every year. Of course, there arc a great
many people who are obliged to move, in or
der to accommodate themselves to the fickle
goddess, but tjie great proportion are those
who move simply for a change.
Wi th these people tio, there is an idea that
they may, perchance, get the better of their
neighbors in this practical game of “stage
coach;” and, consequently, each one rushes
wildly around to bccutc the hest scat as the
first of Novemlicrdraws near.
Yesterday was by far the biggest moving
day on record in New Orleans, and from early
in tlie morning until late in the evening, fur
niture cars and wagons of all kinds could Jio
seen driving heavily laden with furniture and
other household goods from place to place.—
