Mam. Editors: I never, in my life, knew
nun to bo so partial in its distribution. In many
parts of this country, neighborhoods did not snf-
for a day for rain until com was fully raa dc
while, perhaps, a few miles in almost any direct
turn from tho fortunate vicinity, the fields were
bterally burning up, and so they have continued,
bo yon may divine that it is only in parts of the
county that even com crops are good : but I
believe, aye, know that, taken as a whole, it
equals, if it does not exceed, an average yield.

grown off well considering tho backward spring
and was unusually well-fruited; but those bright
anticipations of big crops have been blighted

being dry now so long, farmers have had
tho best timo imaginable to gather their fodder,
and I am confident I am right when I say that
not many times in tne recollection of the people

It is considered, I am awaro, as a minor crop,
still com is much more beneficial to stock when
mixed with excellent fodder.

.Sport in tho Ancient City.
Our old friend of tho Tallahassee Floridian
■ hnB been on n seaside excursion to tho Ancient
E City of St. Augustino, nnd editorially expatintos
upon what he has seen and enjoyed in an nrticlo
which wo confess mokes us n littlo envious.—
Wo copy a part of it as follows :
Wo cannot recall a more pleasant trip than
tho one just taken by us, in company with
several gentlemen, to tho “Ancient City.” Of
tho number was our distinguished fellow-towns
man, Col. Jos. Ji Williams, who was on a visit
to his family, who are residing there for tho
summer.
Accepting his kind invitation our party be
came his guests, and to him, but more especially
to his estimablo and accomplished lady, aro we
indebted for our delightful sojourn anil elogant
entertainment. Certainly no ono conld have
surpassed our kind hostess in tho graco and
charm with which she presided over her depart
ment of the house-hold, and the clover manner
in which she managod to impart to each guest a
“homoliko” foeliug of ease and comfort, and
very certainly no ono conld have prepared
viands with greater skill or have spread them
more temptingly; indoed, each dish seemed to
invite ono to commit suicide. That splendid
“crab” salad, that superb “shrimp" salad, that
magnificent “turtlo” and “clam” soup—cannot
soon bo forgotten.
As to tho ''Vandingo'’ and “Lnngaroo," these
were the colored dishes prepared with the as
sistance of signor Tony, and very relishablo
they wore too—though l)r. B. did say that ono
could not, with entire comfort, dispose of more
tknn two plates each of these dishes, especially
after having already thrico fully tested tho mer
its of tho ,‘shrimps” and “crab" salad.
To those fond of sport wo havo found no place
equal to the “Ancient City.” During our so
journ ^’O were not without some new amuse
ment every day. Fishing, shrimping and crab
bing, wero all "tried, and with success, and an
excellent sport in their way. Ono morning our
party worn Short JUhing—and in a littlo while
we had five of these man-eating monsters floun
dering on tho beach. We took tho trouble to
measure one of them, nnd ho was over six feet
long. Wo never enjoyed a more oxeiting
sport. Imagine six or eight men swinging
to ono end of a line with a huge shark nt
the other, cutting and slashing and making
tho water fairly boil with his furious antics;
hear them shout nt the top of their voices,
“haul in! haul in !" see tho monster as ho is at
* length pulled upon the shore, flapping his great
tail in nil directions, oponing his ponderous
jaws, displaying his rows of sharp teeth, and
watching you with his wicked white glistening
oyes. It is royal sport and no mistake, and
even a rlieumatio would, on being placed in
proximity to such a monster, become as active
a cat. It is very exciting sport. We know
of nothing better calculated to stir up ono whose
course of lifo is sodentary, dull, and sluggish.
Truly, variety is the spice of life, when sea
soned with a shark fish. A party went out the
day before wo did and caught a shark over thir-
teen feet long. Wo saw his liver, from which
five gallons of oil were made. In addition to
these sport-s, a great many plover and choice
sea birds aro to be found on all the sand bars,
and shores, so that a good marksman with his
fowling piece need not be idle at low tide.
But last, though not least of the enjoyments
of the “Ancient City,” are tho charming boat-
rides one may enjoy, tho waters are sufficiently
smooth to be entirelv safe, and a strong breeze
ia almost always ready to fill the sails. Noth
ing can be moro enchanting than a sail by
"N moonlight, with tho grim old fort looming up
so solemnly in the distance, and the strains of
the city brass-band wafted to you upon the
waters softlv blending with the noise of tho
rippling as your boat glides along But we are
getting romantic and most quit, Ad to*, St.

The GF.-rrrsi.nRO FAn.raE.-The great Gettys
burg celebration has but few friends. Even the
correspondents of ultra Radical journals such as
l’ornev'spr.pers and the New York Tribune, de
nounce the whole affair as a failure and ado-
coDtion. A Tribune correspondent says : ilie
present gathering at Gettysburg does not seem
to have "had sufficient motive, or to have an
swered any large purpose, or to have satisfied
the vague expectations it aroused. It was re
buked from the South, slightly attended from
the North, and it will probably be the last in
flated effort to lengthen out the mercantile
uses of this battle-field, which should hereafter
be left as the nation intended, a pleasant ceme
tery to many bravo dead, but not a perennial
fair ground, made ludicrous by failures such as
this which I have noticed beyond its due."

a m ° n botl V 1 ha ™ noticed cotton, upon
, b ting plantation, manured with cotton
eed, which is as badly injured by rust as that
”K. n ?, h \ cb gjtano has been used ; hence I con-
elude that it is not attributable to the kind of
manure used, and that we must look to some
other source for the cause.
That the rust is produced by an insect I havo
no doubt; but it is a great mistake to suppose
mat it is the common plant louse, or aphis, as
some imagine. The insect causing rust is the
plant mite or red spider. You may find An in
teresting article upon this subject in the Sep
tember number of the Southern Cultivator for
1848, by Dr. N. T. Sorsby, of Alabama, and at
one time, I believe, a resident of your city.
Admitting that this spider causes the rust,
(and I think there can be no controversy npon
this point,) the question arises, what are the
conditions or circumstances most favorable to
its production and propagation? You suggest
the idea, Mr. Editor, that **the Guano makes a
rapid, tender and sappy growth of the cotton
plant, and this condition of the plant is just
what the aphis delights in. K?w, sir, my ob
servation and experience is directly the opposite
of this: and that the disease* in question is
caused by deficient nutrition, .from whatover
cause, whether from exhaustion: of the nutritive
properties in the soil, or froiu tho absence of
rain in sufficient quantities to place the nutritive
elements in tho soil, either naturally existing
or artificially applied, in a state suitable to be
taken up and appropriated to tho nourishment
and growth of tho plant.
So long as the plant maintains a rapid, heal
thy, and succulent growth, you need bo under
no apprehension from rust; but so soon as its
growth is checked by heat and dry weather, you
may expect its appearance. I believe the ob
servation of planters will bear me out in the as
sertion that, so long as the rains continued and
the cotton maintained a “rapid, tender and sap
py growth,” no sign of rust appeared; and that
it made its appearance only after tho hot and
dry weather of July and August set in.
I am supported in this opinion by Dr. Sorsby,
above quoted, who says: ‘‘Frequent rains du
ring summer, by forcing the growthof the plant
on rich land, check their ravages temporarily.**
The cause has been ascertained, but how
about the cure. Ah, thero*8 the rub, I have
but littlo faith in any applications to the plant
after the appearance of tho disease. Wo must
look to preventives rather than cures. The
most feasible preventive that suggests itself to
mind is thorough preparation of the soil before
planting. Dot the land be deeply plowed, sub-
soiled, no matter whether tho land be clay or
sandy; and where fertilizers are nsed, put them
deep in tho ground, and then let the culture bo
light, so as not to disturb the roots of the plant.
Of oonrse we cannot supply tho lack of mois
ture ; wo must do all that reason and experience
indicate, and then leave it to the Giver of all
good to send “the early and tho latter rain.**

Taylor County, Ga., Aug. 29, 18G9.
Pennsylvania and Ohio Election8.
During the past week wo have scon several
gentlemen who, in the routine of business, have
traveled tho State from tho Delaware to the
Ohio, and tho reports they give of the tone of
publio sentiment everywhere uniformly point to
an overwhelming Democratic victory. Our in
formants are gentlemen of intelligence, who
would not wilfully misrepresent facts. Their
opportunities for observation have been very
extended, and but for tho fact that wo can place
implicit confidence in their statements, wo
shonid feel inclined to donbt tho possibility of
snch an enthusiastic awakening of tho masses
in behalf of the Democratic nominee as they re
port. In tho large cities and towns, in tho re
tired villages, and throughout tho rural districts
tho universal cry is : Give ns a change of rulers, j
Any chango must be for tho better, is the gen
eral opinion. If this feeling is taken advantage !
of in a proper manner, Asa Packer will bo elec- j
ted by a largo majority.—Philadelphia Age.
It is now about seven weeks until tho election.
Tho aspect of the canvass is excellent. As was
expected, tho nomination of Mr. Pendleton ex- |
cites the liveliest satisfaction and tho greatest
enthusiasm among the Democracy and tho Con
servative men. He will poll a larger vote than j
any other candidate that conld have been select
ed. Tho Democrat who will not vote and work |
/or him with all his might and soul is yet to be
discoved.
Thero lias grown up an irresistible feeling
that a political change conld not only do noharm, |
but would be immensely beneficial. We cannot, |
therefore, doubt tho result. We expect to poll
not only every Democratic voto which was cast !
in October, 1368» (250,000 in number) but to i
receive heavy accessions from the liberal men
of the other" organization. That Gov. Hayes j
will receive moro votes than ho obtained two
years ago (which was 248,000), is very improb
able. He has proved a negative chief magis
trate, in whose success his party don’t feel in
terest, much less enthusiasm. His bargain
with Delano to control appointments in this
State, with the design of catting out Messrs.
Schenck and Sherman, is well known to them,
and it would be strange if he was not consider
ably “cut” in that quarter.—Cincinnati En
quirer, __
PUANCHETTE REVIVED PICTURE DRAWING,
etc.—Portraits are now drawn by “Planchette”
in the West. The “development” of this tal
ent for drawing by planchette will probably give
the humbug a new lease upon life, the Bishops
to the contrary notwithstanding. The Toledo
Commercial mentions that planchette draws por
traits, and says:
“ Some persons have recognized deceased rel
atives. One of the drawings in colored crayons
is very beautiful, the expression of the counte
nance being quite life-like. Planchette com
mences At the head to draw and finishes the pic
ture as it advances. When it came to draw the
dress of the picture above named, it indicated
to the “ medium” to take a purple crayon. This
she refused to do, saying it would spoil the pic
ture. She strove to resist the “power ’ for near
ly half a day, till at last, exhausted, she gave
way and let planchette take its course. It com
bined several other colors with the purple, and
made a very handsome golden tint, which is the
admiration of all who see it.”
The last soldier of the Revolution is to be thus
described: “The old man, survivor of the Revo
lution, more than one hundred years old, who
ahvavs rose with the sun : never drank anything
in his life stronger than brandy and sugar : who
has cut two cords of firewood daily every day
except Sundays for the last sixty-nine years;
who invariably walked five miles before break
fast; who is the father of thirty-eight children,
the grandfather of two hundred grandchildren,
and the great grandfather of thirteen great
grandchildren, and who would shortly have been
the great great grandfather of one gTeat great
grandchild, is dead. And now we hope nobody
will disturb the good old man any more.
Cottos in Thomas.—The Thomasville South
ern Enterprise, of the 1st instant, says :
The warm weather is rapidly opening the
cotton, and thirty bales were sold in town dur
ing the last week. We regret to state, however,
that the caterpillars are making havoc of the
cotton fields in some localities, and it is believed
by many that the crop will be injured at least
one-third.
“ Kisses,” says Sam Slick, “are like creation,
because they are made out of nothing and are
very good.” “They are also,” says the Galaxy,
“like serments, requiring two heads and an ap-
| plication.”

nac for this year, which wo publish for

much valuable information:
Dr. K. W. Carr, of Baltimore, says—I
take pleasure in recommending your Hosa-
dalls as a very powerful alterative. I have
seen it used in two cases with happy results:
one in a case of secondary typhilU, in
which tho patient pronounced himself
cured after having taken five bottles of
your medicine. The other is a case of
scrofula of long standing, which is rapidly
improving under its use, and the indica
tions are that the patient will soon recover.
I have carefully examined tho formulae
by which your Kosadalis is made, and find
it an excellent compound of alterative in-
j gredients.
Dr- Sparks, of Nicholasville, Ky.. says he
has used Kosadalis in oaf *\» of Scrofula and
Secondary Syphilis with patiafactory re
sults—a* a cleaner of tho«Blood I know no
better remedy.
Samuel G. McFadJcn, of Murfreesboro,
j Tenn..says:
I have used /even bottles of Rosadalis.
and am entirely cured of Rheumatism;
send me four bottles, as 1 wish it for m
brother, who has Scrofulous Soro Eyes.
Boniatnin Bcehtol, of Lima, Ohio, writes:
t have suffered for twenty years with an
inveterate eruption over my whole body : a
short time sinco I purchased a bottle of
Rosadali* and it effected a perfect eure.
