THE ECONOMY OP SYSTEM.
In OUT first artjela, wo described the modus
operand; of preparing the soil, planting the seed
and cultivating the crop. We now re ton to the
diameter of the ferfahzers used, their prepara-
bon and quantity; the organization and disci-
^ f ° rCeS engaeed) 0113 the economy of
• X \T7£5*V» *5^ to P r °“we by announe-
ing that CqJ. Locketts system, as well as the
materials he uses, have the recommendation of
well ordered experience, scientific investigation
and practical illustration. His experiments are
file result of careful and intelligent study, and
ho never theorises or advances till he is forti
fied by the unerring principles of common sense,
and a perfect mastery of the subject before
him. Acting upon the homely, but wise
apothegm of Davy Crockett, he first assures
himself that he is on the right track and then
goes ahead, with almost certainty of success.
Ho ^procures the genuine Peruvian guano
from thbMmporter's agent, and thus avoids the
risk of commercial manipulation and commer
cial imposition. With this ho mixes equal parts
of raw-bono and land-plaster—pounds till thor
oughly pulverized, and mixes with the exactness
of the apothecaries compounding of medicines.
Thus prepared, with his guano distributors,
before mentioned, guaged to distribute the de
sired quantity, ho puts in from two hundred
and fifty to three hundred pounds to the acre,
according to the strength Sir necessity of the
land. • , _jk
As before stated, this deposit is it the bot
tom of the deep furrow, and bedded upon with
the Watt plow.
As soon as a field is thus prepared—aid they
are not mere patches, but broad plains, contain
ing from one hundred to eight hundred acres—
the whole force returns to the first row, the
plows are laid nsido and the plantera and har
rows take their places. The planter and har
row being both light, and requiring but little
exertion to keep them on the center of the bed,
the mules and negroes seem to regard the work
of planting os only pleasant exercise, and by
the time the field is gone over, are rested and
refreshed for the heavier labor of laying off,
fertilizing and bedding the next field.
Perfect system governs every moment, and
the intricate machinery of a Navigator’s chro
nometer runs with scarcely more order, preci
sion or certainty, while the organization and
discipline of the labors is equal, in all essential
respects, to the highest standard of military
regulation.
When tho cotton is ready for the sweeps, as
described in our first article, tho sweeps are
numbered from 1 to 40, CO or CO, as tho case
may be, and No. 1 takes the first row planted,
No. 2 follows in tho third row, No. 3 is tho fifth
row—and so on till tho last sweep is entered.
No. 1 leads, and No. 2 follows at a distance just
sufficient to allow No. 1 to turn as he—No. 2—
drives out at the end of the row. 'No. 3 fol
lows No. 2 at the same distance, and so of nil
tho rest. ; t '.
This regulation is very like a military move
ment, and those who remember tho drill of the
battalion will nt once recognize tho Echdon
monoevre. When No. 1 has finished his two
rows ho drives across the head of tho rows till
he posses No. 40, if that be tho number of
sweeps, and takes tho next row, and as each, in
succession, comes out he follows No. 1, and
again leaving two rows, turns in, and the same
beautiful echelon figuro is repeated, and re-
repeated till tho fenco on the opposite side of
tho field is reached.
When the crop is gone over with tho sweeps
in this way, they return to tho starting place,
and the same order is repeated—tho samo num
bers taking tho samo rows as before.
No. 1 is required always to go ahead, and
none are permitted to drive in advance of him;
and tho same rule is observed to the end of the
line—each keeping next to, but not getting
ahead of, the number next preceding him, nor
falling behind tho next below him.
This confines every number to his own ap
pointed rows throughout the plantation, and
from the first to the last going over, and enables
the manager at a glance to discover the slothfnl
and detect tho careless. Every number must
keep in its place, or tho chain is broken, and
tho figure is so marred that tho machinery jars
and jostles, and the cause is easily traced.
Negro Brigands.
a mnr.n AND CUNNINO LEADEB—ATTEMPT AT AB
DUCTION—EFFORTS TO TAKE THE BAND.
On tho shore of tho Arkansas river, abovo
Napoleon, a gang of atrocious negro highway
men and house robbers is congregated, and per
forming deeds of violence and pillage that are
alarming the citizens throughout tho district.
Swooping down when least expected, these men
clear out a house, a stable or a farmer. riding
home with a dispatch, ingenuity and skill that
calls to mind the deods of Dick Turpin, mingled
with the daring and rapacity of the Italian brig
ands in their mountain haunts.
From the Richmond's Headlight of Satnrday
last we learn that the success of this band is
owing to the acuteness and boldness of its leader,
whom they call “ Ned.” He was once a roust
about on the steamer Belle Lee, is six feet mm,
well made, and very ready of speech—qualities
-that have given him unlimited control over his
black followers. He left tho Leo at New Or
leans two months ago, and commenced coUect-
ing his men, said to now number about thirty
desperadoes, who never dispute his commands.
The band are armed with six-shooters and bowie
. 'knives, and have no lack of stolen horses.
When the Richmond last passed up, the news at
Napoleon was that the country above there had
been thrown into consternation by Ned s having
seized the daughter of an influential citizen,
with whom he would have got safely off but for
the energy of tho young ladys father and hw
neighbors, who pursued the abauejor and at
tacked him and tho portion of the band that
were with him, and compelled them to relinquish
their prey. Ned rides a white horse, finely ca
parisoned, and is himself generally dressed in
fantastic colors. Ho handles his animal with
the skill of a Texas Banger, and seems never to
shirk a fight. On one occasion he was surround
ed by six men in a log cabin, that he frequented
during his hours of leisure. A surrender was
demanded, but Ned, knowing capture to be sure
death, declared he would fight itouton that line.
Preparations were commenced^ for the fray-
A second demand was made, and in reply a shot
from the cabin, severely wounding one of the
attacking party. After this an attempt made
upon the door, bursting it open; bnt on enter
ing it was discovered that Ned had effected an
escape from the rear, having crept under the
logs; and in looking from tho cabin window he
was seen galloping rapidly through a skirt of
timber over tlireehundred yards distant, shaking
his hand in defiance at the chagrined party in
tho log cabin. He has made numerous similar
^toitcation has been made to Gov. Clayton
and it is expected that a reward offered by him
for the leader, Ned, deader alive, andconeert-

KjLmBUWMggwBiiu attUMtag to their homes
on horseback. Jackson was living at the Her
mitage fa retirement; an ex-President, and
85J, one suggested, os they approached the
house, that the party should stop and pay their
respects. loungBrownlow demurred. He had
published in his Knoxville -Whig some stories in
circulation as to Jackson’s domestic life. Bnt the
others insisted, and it was agreed that Brown-
low should not be introduced to Jackson bv
name. Tney entered the large old dwelling,
and indue time the venerable figure of the o£l
man appeared, his countenance expressive of
oourtuness and dignity. The Chairman said:
Resident Jackson, we are members of the
.whig Convention who differ with yon, of course
m political sentiment, but we thought to testify
orir respect for your position by calling on you
as we passed by the Hermitage.”
Jackson replied: “ Gentlemen we do differ in
sentiment, and probably shall continue to do 80-
bnt I appreciate this visit of respect, and shall
be glad to shake yon all by the hand.”
_ They were then introduced severally, except
Brownlow, and there was some manenvreing to
conceal him among tho rest. But Old Hickory ’s
keen eye sought him out.
“ Here is a young gentleman to whom I have
not been introduced, sir!’’
*' ilr. Brownlow, President Jackson.
“Brownlow? That is a familiar name. Where
do yon live, Mr. Brownlow ?”
" Knoxville, sir.”
Ah 1” — looking him through — “I have
heard of you, Mr.' Brownlow. I am glad to see
yon, air!” TT>1
Instead of resenting Brownlow’s visit, Jadc-
son addressed his entire conversation to him,
and overwhelmed him with civilities.
I was not surprised to hear several of these
Tennesseeans say they had often seen Andrew
Jackson staggering in thq. streets of Nashville on
a roaring bender.’ 'fihe-^hastity of both Andrews
was impeached by thesincerities. The fine
talent of Old Hickory to mice money in 4Gq
store at “Clover Bottom” was compared to An
drew Johnson’s “ tolabul fair” thrift; for John
son is well ahead of tho world. And to this fact
his progress in political place is largely duo.
The poverty-fitrioken Congressman is ho who is’
sure, sooner or later, to bo entrapped by some
land grant railroad, or other speculation, and
made to eat ignominious bread.
Andrew Jackson, in the opinion of these
“ loyal” East Tennesseeans, was a man disin
clined to fight duels, and he invariably fonght
with the cold-blooded determination to kill a
rival or maintain the prestige of his prowess.
Hero spoke np John Brownlow, the parson's
fighting son:
“Gath,” he said, “my father would never
have figured in any brawl but for tho condition
of society in Tennessee. ’ Ho was an editor and
a preacher. They say:
“The preacher won’t fight, and, therefore, we
will disgrace the editor.’'
They meant to moke my father unpopular by
subjecting him to insnlt; ho saw tho game and
took np their challenges; this mode him tho
fighting preacher.
Tho general conversation, after this Interrup
tion, proceeded to tell how frequently Jackson
; rat np with insult when it was not expedient to
i Ight. For instance, John ’SVilliams, second in
command nt the battle of the Horseshoe, rode
into Knoxville one afternoon. He was a raging
Federalist. He espied Jackson sitting at the
window of the Lamar Houso (still standing)
reading a paper.
“Andrew Jackson,” he cried, “you’re a cow
ard and a d—d scoundrel.”
- ’Williams was a dead shot, and his pistols were
cocked in their holsters. Jackson rose and
slipped np stairs. This pieoe of evasion being
reported about town and country, Jackson lost
character, and his friends began to fall away.
At this time the duellist, Charles Dickinson,
tnmed np, having come all the way from Mary
land to insult Jackson. So Overton, Jackson’s
friend, told him he must fight or retire from
public life. Then occurred the remarkable duel
so fully described by Mr. Parson, in which both
parties were cold-bloodedly resolved to. kill.
Jackson was forty-five years old; Dickinson
thirty years. They rode to the Kentucky line,
practising on tho way, and all the talk between
Jackson and Overton was as to how Dickinson
could be killed most expediently.
In the duel Jackson wore a long wrapper. .He
bent his spine sidewise with his head straight
up, and received the first shot on the left or
concave side. It was aimed at the heart and
missed by a few inches, striking the shoulder
instead. Overton had disturbed him by crying
in a wild shriek, ‘Tare!” (Scotch for fire,) so
that Dickinson was startled.
“Have I missed the d—d scoundrel ?’’
“Back to the line 1” shouted Overton, with
cocked pistol. ...
Jackson- steadied his pistol and took cool aim
Dickinson standing liolt upright before him—
and after a long and painful interval, he brought
his antagonist down mortally wounded. . Old
Jackson walked off the field with his boot full
of blood, too proud to let Dickinson see that he
had been struck by him. Then ho fainted.
(Hero the East Tennesseans called ont: “Ho
was a murderer 1 He killed Dickinson, taking
all the chances, disguising his anatomy, playing
'possum, and he’s in hell 1” - -
A great unanimous chorus went up among the
East Tennesseans, of: .
“ Yes, old Jackson’s in hell, sure!—Corres

The Radicals Be coming Disgusted at
Their Own Depravity.
The Washington correspondent of the Balti
more Gazette says:
The fearful depravity manifested in official
circles here far exceeds anything ever before
known, and it has become so open and palpable
that leading Radicals are expressing great dis
gust. In a conversation last evening, a Radical
editor who, in the better days of the Republic,
had been a prominent Democrat, declared that
no Government on earth could long continue
under the corruption as now openly practiced
here in high quarters, and his.honest belief was
that the only salvation for tins country was to
reinstate the old Democratic party. His brother,
also a Radical convert from the Democracy, ex
claimed, “Treason, treason.’’ “Yonmay call
it what you please,” said tho first speakert ’but
no one knows better than yourself tho tn ^ °^
what I say.” General Sickles,
during the conversation, remarked, 1 aon t

Special Corretpondence of the Baltimore Gazette]
Washington, April 15, 16G9.
If the diplomatic tactics of Minister Johnson
may be regarded defective because of his guper-
hdive zeal to convince the English peopl^in
advance of his negotiation, that on no account
whatever would Brother Jonathan quarrel with
^bat shall be thought of toe counter-plot
of Sumner, in warning toe British Government
beforehand, that, to avoid a rupture, toe very
terms of any treaty to be entered into with it
must contain an express craven to its infamy ?
Yet such are the quasi-instructions publicly
pnt into Motley’s hands by toe Senate, with toe
approbation of the President, before he even
leaves our shores to enter upon his mission of
peace.” The first demand he is “instructed” to
make is an acknowledgement of error and wrong
on the part of Great Britain in recognizing
the belligerent attitude of toe ConfederateGo?
emment—(so called)—particularly as a mari
time warfare. Before submitting to fbia re
quirement, it is barely possible that England
may see fit to consult Franco and the other Eu
ropean powers who committed toe same grave
offence! But suppose she does, who is sfraid?
“Out of this bitter may come forth sweetness.”
A war with combined Europe would effectually
“restore the Union,” and as effectually settle
all our pecuniary unpleasantness and outstand
ing obligations, as with a wet sponge. H
summer shall succeed in plunging ns into a war
upon a .truly gigantic scale, against all too

as the grand stake, our paltry sectional bicker
ings must cease, toe question of “resumption”
become obsolete, and toe whole comprehensive
platform of Senator Sprague crumble into mere

Yamoka, or Dedicated Sweet Potatoes
From the Brandon (Bejniliean.
Whilst in Vicksburg, last week, Mrs. C. K.
Marshall sent us a Sweet Potato Custard, made
of kiln dried potatoes, which have been pre
served since 1867. Several intelligent gentle
men were invited to tea with us, and they all
joined in pronouncing the Yamoka Custard very
delicious, fully equal to that made from toe
fresh potato. The Roverend C. K. Marshall is
the inventor.and patentee of the process for cut
ting and drying this delicious vegetable, and if
the results meet his expectations his name will
become a household word throughout the sweet
>otato regions of the Southwest Mississippi.—
lo has been making experiments and perfecting
machinery for several years past, and now has a
dry house in operation at.Amite, La., and is
having a great many experiments made by
scientific gentlemen in New York and Washing
ton city. He thinks an ontlay from 9200 to
9300 dollars will supply all the necessary ap
paratus to cut and dry five hundred bushels per
day, and says it can be removed from one
neighborhood to another at a trifling expense,
thus enabling one Aan to do all the cutting and
drying for a whole country. It only requires
about five hours, to dry a kiln; the bulk is re
duced about two-thirds, and a bushel when dried
weighs from fourteen to sixteen pounds.
Scientific men have decided that coffdte made
out of a mixture of Yamoka and pure coffee—
say two parts Yamoka and one of coffee—is de
cidedly more healthy, nutritious and delicately
flavored than that mode from all coffee. For
pies or. custards it is fully oqual to the raw
potato. For batter cakes or puddings it is ex
cellent when ground into floor. Horses love it,
and will fatten on it faster than on corn. In
short, toe potato is fully osgood for all . pur
poses when dried by this process, as when in 1U
natural state, and the advantages of toe dried
aro numerous. The great drawback to raising
potatoes in this section has been tho wont of a
market, and tho difficulty of keeping them, from
rotting. With, this process they can be dried as
fast as they aTo taken from toe gronnd, and a
team that would haul fifty bushels to market in
the raw Btato would haul two hundred bushels in
the desicated state. Heretofore we have had
no market for our potatoes, because too weather
geta too cold by the time they are dry enough
to ship North. When dried they can be shipped
to any part of toe world, at a comparatively
trifling cost, andtwill soon become an important
article of food for toe people of toe Northern
States. But toe great demand for toe Yamoka
will be from the navies of the world. To pre
vent scurvy they aro compelled to have vege
tables to oat, and the dried potato will answer
tfie purpose precisely.
This invention will bo worth millions of dol
lars to toe people of tho piney woods, uhero
sweet potatoes grow spontaneously, Land that
will not make over ten bushels of oom or a
third of a bale of cotton to toe acre, will pro
duce from ICO to 200 bushels of sweet potatoes.
But let us suppose that it will only produce 100
bushels per acre, and that the dried article will
only sell for ten cents per pound—with fifteen
pounds to toe bushel. That would amount to
9150 per acre, or about as fifteen acres in com.
Whenever toe process is fully perfected, and a
market created for too dried potato, our piney
woods land will be worth more than the river
bottoms.
Ambergris.
Wo published, a few days ago, a paragraph
announcing toe capture, off Madagascar, by ton
New Bedford whaling bark Elizabeth, Captain
Spalding, of a whale in whose body was found
the unparalleled amount of 285 pounds of am
bergris. The total value of the unequalled
mass was stated at 920,000—a sum which it is
seen may very likely be truly stated, when toe
additional fact appears, as it now does, that this
rare substance has just been sold by another
New Bedford whaleship at toe rate of a
txrand. This latter capture, like the other, was
also Off toe African coast; but it was fax
less in quantity. It was, however, a much
larger quantity than usual, viz: 71 pounds. It
was made by toe New Bedford whaleship Her
ald—apparently off toe eastern coast of Africa,
for toe ambergris was sold at Zanzibar, for £9i
a pound: and it is stated that Mr. ZenasL.
Adams, of New Bedford, toe ship’s agent, has
received a gold draft for 93,000, on a Salem
banking house, as a part of toe proceeds of the
^Tho ambergris is largely used by toe Mahom-
edans for incense, and it is also used, in some
of the costliest perfumes. It is not often found
and rarely indeed in large quantity. It? only
found in sick or lean whales, generally in too
intestines, or floating npon the seas of warm
climates intermixed with toe food of the whales.
It is thought to be a morbid secretion of the
whale’s diseased fiver, and it m of bright gray
color, streaked with yellow and black. It has a
very fine waxy character—is as soft as the com
mon putty of toe glazier, and on ^g rabbed
