Washington County. Qa., April 22, 1869.
Editor* Telegraph :—Once more I am at
ray old home, the place of my nativity, and
amidst the scenes of my childhood. Ten
years ago I left this old county for the pur
pose of earning a livelihood in a different
portion of the State, among different people,
who had different ways and customs. Of
course, during the period of ten years, many
changes have taken place. But as has ever
been the case, the people of Washington
connty are doing well.
As a class, no people can boast of a better
record than the people of this connty. They
are honest, hospitable and industrious. It is
pleasing and encouraging to notice the vigor
and cheerfulness with which they enter upon
the duties ot the year. Their lands are care
fully and prudently prepared to receive the
cotton and corn. I have not seeD a farmer
since I have been here but who is ueiDg more
or less fertilizers. Upon lands that have been
in cultivation for a century, the farmers talk
learnedly of making a bale of cotton to the
acre. Such land, with such people to culti
vate it, (an never wear out.
One of the most systematic and practical
farmers in this section of the country is Col.
T. J. Smith, better known as Col. Jack Smith,
This gentleman favored me with a ride yes
terday over his entire farm. He owns abont
six thousand acres of land raoning parallel
witn the Oconee river. His hands work in
“squads” and are both white and black. He
is using about one hnndred tons of guano.
Not being familiar with the different names
of fertilizers, it is impossible for me to give a
list of them, but suffice it to say that he is
using fifteen different kinds, and intends to
give them all a fair trial. He uses from two
to four hundred pounds to the acre, and on
all kinds, of land. Tbe better the land, the
better the guano will pay.
And strange to say Col. Smith has not got
the cotton mania. “I will convince you be
fore I get through” said the Colonel as ho
pointed out to me a large field of corn about
■twelve inches high, “that I am trying to make
■some corn. Experience has taught me that
1 can raise an abundance of corn and bacon,
; and five or six bales of cottoo to the hand.
<1 think it pays better than raising so much
•cotton." Would that more ofour farmers
•could think the same way. Col. Smith also
showed me a very fine Chester sow. She has
a brood of twelve pigs following her now,
iten days old, and os large as our common pigs
at a month old. The sow is now nine months
old and weighs five hundred pounds. Not
withstanding the enormous Size of these bogs
it takes less for them to eat than our common
hogs, and they ean bo fattened at any age.
But as Col. S. proposes to take the sow and
tier family to the fair that is to be held in
Macon this year I refrain from further com
ment
The Savannah merchants are doing a lively
business in this section of the country. Their
agents and circulars are as thick as hops all
over the country. I think it would bo well
for our Macon merchants and warehouse men
to give this and the adjoining counties a lit-
th, attention.
Superior Court has been in session here
about two weeks—Judge Gibson presiding.
The Judge i# a thorough relief man : holding
that the whole relief act is constitutional, and
instructs juries to make up their verdicts nc-
cordingly. One of the most important cases
■ tried last week was that of the State vs.
Washington Jackson, charged with the raur-
• der of William Taylor. The State was repre
sented by Judge Jas. S. Hooke and Hon. R.
W. Flournoy, the prisoner by Gen. A. R.
’.Wright and Hon. L L. Harris. Verdict: not
.guilty.
But I commenced simply to give yon a few
“‘dots” abont the prospect for a crop, and will
tSnisb by saying that a refreshing rain fell
here on Tuesday last, to the great delight of
both man and beast. I could say something
more but I partook of a fine dish of green
peas gathered from Mrs. Smith’s garden yes
terday, and feel a little unpleasant to-day.
I fear that I ate too much. Too many peas
and Oconee catfish do not set well. A.
From Sumter County.
Danville, Ga., April 23,1809.
Messrs. Editors: Tou have not yet asked
□s to write you concerning the crops, &c.,
but thinking you would not object to hear
from this once glorious part of Sumter - but
alas! for several years has been cursed with
■ the. sweets of freedom- Radicalism and such
like; but now I am happy to inform you we
■ are getting to be ourselves again.
The Freedmen—are conducting them
selves in terms satisfactory to all with so
■little exception as to be not noticed. Expert
-ence has taught them that they are not t e
■white man’s superior, and they acknowledge
that*4hey have been led astray, and now
manifest a disposition to retaliate.
Farmers.—Those who procured bauds at
* the proper time are generally very forward,
and prosDects before us are brighter than at
any .time since the surrender, and all goes as
SR* a , ma ? 1&ge belb Corn is looking
Plante^' gh ‘ ly fr09t Wt who
planted cotton very forward, in a few in
tobe e l haVe ha3 * kUIed; and there «em3
great a demand for seed as there
was a few years back. There being a few
scientific men in the commnnity who always
plie^d en ° USh t0 PlaDt over > aU wil1 be SU P-
Ebetilizers—are being used extensively,
and should they prove successful to planters
ey will be unanimously used in the future!
Our people are waking up from their lethargy
and their old fogy system of planting. Ex
perience is teaching them that there is ■
money nor discretion in cultivatingfouracrcs
of land to make a bale of cotton, when
the money expended for the cultivation of
four will make one acre bring the same, and
in stead of wearing out our lands we are
making them rich. So eoon as we adopt
this plan, no. North, no East, nor West can
compete witlf us, and the result is we are an
independent people. • ■ ■ > i ■
Wc have superior advantages over any
other country, and would we apply ourselves
properly, time would soon show to the world
what they are. Factories are being built,
and every improvement is rapidly develop
ing.
Oi.d Danville—is hero yet, reduced to
one little grocery. It is an excellent stand
for a small business. If some clever man
would open a family grocery with a capital
of three or four thousand dollars, he could
make as much money as in Macon or any
other town. Vours truly,
Danville.
Interesting from Houston Connty.
Fort Valley, April 24, 1869.
Editor* Telegraph .-—This Spring has not
been very forward nor late, wet nor dry. Our
farmers seem to be inspired with hope and
courage, and are as busy as bees. I hear but
little complaint of the weather, labor or
stands. A few who planted some fields of
cotton very early have had to plant them the
second time. This has made cotton seed
scarce aod high, some oskiog $1 50 a bushel
for common seed. Guanos have been exten
sively used and a large cotton crop planted.
Our town people, even, have been so blinded
as to plant their patches, and in some cases,
their gardens in cotton, notwithstanding
everything to eat is scarce and high. Corn,
peas, potatoes, chickens, butter, eggs, etc.,
from the country can’t be hsd. Will our peo
ple never learn sense ?
Money is scarce, snd our merchsnts adher
ing to tbe cash system are doing but little.
Oor place is improving a little, some more
brick stores are to be built this summer. The
Dow Law patent is owned here. Over 1000
cotton planters were made here and sold this
sesson, at $10 apiece. The same firm are put
ting up a machine shop. Another firm is
going into the fruit canning business this
summer. And s cotton factory will be in
operation here next fall. But our people
must grow wiser before they can get rich.
They must go to work, produce more, man
ufacture more, sod buy less.
“Grace Greenwood” in the Political
Arena.
The Washington Star, of Wednesday, con
tains the following spicy card, from the well
known female author:
A Card.—Editor of the Star :—Sir, I
find in your issue, of yesterday, tbe following
paragraph:
“Dr. Lippincott, (the husband of Grace
Greenwood,) a lourth class clerk in the Post
Office Department, was an applicant for tbe
>osition of General Snperintendent of tbe
?o*t Office Department, but failed to get the
appointment.”
During tbe visit of Mr. Macready to this
country, as he was travelling on a Western
steamboat,* he was pointed out, by a waggish
clerk, to a rough backwoodsman, as Ole Bull,
who was then giving concerts in the West.
The great tragedian sat apart, on the deck,
wrapped in poetic contemplation and insular
dignity; but the tall Missourian strode im
mediately up to him, and with a startling
slap on the shoulder, thus accosted him:
“Hello, old boss I Old Bull! wbar’s your
fiddler
Tbe stately actor turned upon him, and
with a “withering look,” and in the most
tragic tone, replied: “Sir I am not a horse,
neither am I a bull, neither have I a fiddle 1”
In like manner. I have to reply that Mr.
Lippincott, of Philadelphia, “the husband of
Grace Greenwood,” is not a doctor, neither
is be “a fourth class clerk in the Post-office
Departmentneither has he been “an appli
cant for the position of General Superinten
dent of the Post-office Department;” neither
has he failed to get the appointment.
As for the excellent Dr. Lippincott, is it
not enough that he should miss of the office
to which he aspired, that you must divorce
him from his lawful wife, a mo3t estimable
lady—and bestow him upon a stranger ?
As for us, belonging to another branch of
the Lippincott tice, we have applied for no
office at Washington, though we have, we
will confess, held ourselves open to the prof
fer of u first class foreign mission. With
slight solicitation we would consent to be a
“looker on in Vienna,” though, perhaps,
Madrid would oe a better point, as our
worldly possessions principally consist of
certain dilapidated “castles in Spam. That
we missed of Paris, was not, we feelassared,
because our honored President loved Phila
delphia less, but Galena more. A. Curttn
has fallen upon our hopes of St. Petersburg,
and if we mourn, it will not be in Russian
Sables. As for the Court of St. James, it
stems “your Motley is the only wear.
I think I have some reason to complain ol
your editors, for apparently classing me
among the “bigamistic writers of the day,
in assigning to me so many amiable consorts.
If you would only vary the name rccastonal-
ly, there would be some relief m the variety.
But toujours Lippincott 1 .
The same disclaimer I now put forth fo
the benefit of Dr. Lippincott, must app y t«
Mr J. B. Lippincott, the great publisher,
and to Gfheral Lippincott, late Door-keepe
° f They are 1 “all honorable men,” doubtless,
but they are not my husbands; and I here y
wirn all persons against trusting me on thci
account. 1 .

War with England.
COMMEN TS' ON THE BRITISH PRESS—OPINffOXS.
From tie Chicago Timet, 2Oti 1 .
The ocean telegraph gave, on Thursday
synopsis of the opinions of tbe Londo °7 > “
and Lord Stanley, with reference to ‘“e re
jection of tbe Stanley Johnson agreement.
No. 2751..
!ifnv?f eriDg ’? * d ‘ ffereot f°rm, aubstan-
Ually the same terms that were proposed bv
Revertiy Johnson; but it precedes this state-
mart with the assertion that there is nothing
more to concede op tbe part of Great Britain
It characterizes any downright demand for
payment as an unfriendly and offensive action
Which it does not believe is contemplated by
General Grant, but which, if made, England
would know how to treat.
There is somewhat of menace in the Times’
YZj} C A*!!t a tr “e of tbe Glasgow speech of
Lord Stanley. The tone of the discourse is
an intimation that only the good sense ofthe
American people can prevent the difficulty
between the two countries from taking an ex
treine character. He concludes by advising *.*-
Ins hearer 3 that it is their doty to show a n *
united front in case of any dispute with the
outside world ; and by pledging himself to
Strengthen, so far as be can, the hands of
whatever foreign minister to whom may be
entrusted tbe settlement of any mensem**
questions. 3 menacing
As the country does not know what Mr.
Motley may be instructed to offer in lieu of
the proffer of his predecessor, and as it is
doubtful that even the administration itself
basyet concluded what it is prepared to ask,
and to enforce it refused, any discussion with
reference to ftp ure negotiations would be
premature. It is safe to leave this aspect of
the matter, with the charitable hope that
General Grant, vrhui he bhull conclude what
he does wish, will have reached a conclusion
in which the honor ofthe nation will be fully
consulted and established. A present ques
tion of more importance is the feelrag of the
PIJ’Pthis country with reference to a war
It cannot be denied by any man familiar
with public sentiment, that a war with Great
Britain, whether that of 1776, or that of
1812, or one which may occur within the
present decade, or at any time in the future,,
is popular with the American people. This
feeling has its origin, in part, in tbe heredi
tary instincts which have come down to ns
from our revolutionary forefathers; and, in
part, in the large Irish element in our nation
ality, among which hatred to tbe Saxon is
as permanent and bitter as the feeling of the
Pole for the Austrian. There is additional
reason for dislike to Great Britain, which
has originated in the burlesques of its
writers, the unfriendly action of ita states
men during tbe late war, and in the constant
assertions of its authors and thinkers that
we are a loose, anarchical government,
destined to early fail in pieces from our own
weight.
In view of this chronic dislike of Great
Britain, there is no doubt that, were every
thing favorable, public sentiment, with en
tire unanimity, would push the settlement of
the Alabama claims to the arbitration of tbe
sword.
What Is It?
A singular bird has recently been seen
at Foster’s Ferry, in this county. The
same character ot the “feathery tribe” was
discovered in that vicinity a few years ago,
just preceding a great freshet, that is well
remembered by our citizens. Tbe bird is rep -
resented.tp be of tbe size of a common dog;
its head is shaped somewhat like a horse’s;
its tail of long leathers banging down like a
horse’s; its plumage is of various colors.
Usually when seen, it was flying very high.
It bas tbe voice of acolt, when loudly whick
ering. A gentleman of the neighborhood
fired with bis rifle at the bird, that was la3t
seen at the ferry, as it flew over. One of its
long tail feathers was taken out by the shot,
and is said to bo now in tbe possession of
Mr. Geo. W. Foster, on exhibition at his
store. It is nearly four feet long, of a creamy
color, and • the feather portion resembling
coarse hair. It was shot off at tbe root
Judgiog from the unearthly screaming of
tbe singular creature, it is believed to have
been wounded by the shot Borne who pre
tend to be skil'ed in tbe science of ornithoman-
c*: assert that the appearance of this singular
visitor is a sure sign of the approach of high
waters—most likely a freshet during the next
month. Many of tbe best citizens of Foster’s
settlement have bad a good view of this colt-
bird, as they have named it, and we cannot
for a moment question the truth of tbe dis
covery. Hope some enterprising and watch
ful person may yet succeed in securing one,
dead or alive, in order to furnish a wonder
to the world, and a new subject for natu
ralists.— Tuskaloosa Monitor

A Lively “Interview.”
Interviews are getting to be lively about
this time. Witness tbe following, which the
Louisville Courier-Journal says occurred on
the 22d:
A fierce interview took place between Jack
Hamilton and Attorney General Hoar, on
Tuesday last, and the following conversation
is said to have occurred :
Hamilton—“I called Mr. Attorney General
to inquire whether it is trne that you intend
to appoint Mr. for the Texas 1”
Attorney General—“Yes, sir; I have already
made out bis nomination.”
Hamilton—“Then, I think, itismydnty
to say that be is a bad man, and not fit to
hold the office.”
Attorney General—“I had beard that you
were opposed to him, and was not surprised,
os I also hear, that you are going over to the
Copperheads.”
Hamilton—“G—d d—n you, or any maD,
who impugns my political motives. Where
were you when the war was raging ? What
were yon doing that justifies your blatant
Unionism to-day f Dispensing the only law
yon know—Massachusetts law—whilst I was
risking my life in behalf of the Union. As
you do not know what is decent or well bred
in your intercourse with gentlemen, I will
not trouble you further, but will go to your
master. 1 ’
So saying. Jack struck off, leaving the re
spectable Massachusetts pettifogger in a be
wilderment of rage and astonishment; and
proceeding to the White House laid theca3e
before Grant and had the appointment an
nulled. It is said Jack is pretty certain to
be elected Governor of Texas, and this inter
view will not set him back much.
