a host of others of their stamp, are
flpod enough in their places; bnt their
opinion as to where the capital ought
to be isn't worth a groat, and if i; were,
they have no right to express iLunleas
they favor Milledgeville. The national
capital was removed to the wilderness
of Washington, because there coaid be
no corruption there As there is no cor
ruption at Washington, remove tbe
state capital to Mi!!edgeville,and there
will be no corruption there. Remove
the capital to Milledgeville, and the
: iate will lose a building worm $200,
0„0 (to say nothing of the cost of re
moval and the proposition of Atlanta )
Let it remain where it is, sud the state
loses nothing; therefore, it would be
economy to move it. The logic of events
will settle the capital question.

Havana, October 27.—Advices from
the city of Mexico, dated the 18th,
•ays: The attempted revolution in
the state ol Michoac win was instantly
suppressed. It is authentically report
ed that the state of Smora has seceded
Peace prevails iu the other states. The
reported insurrections on the northern
border prove untrue. President Diaz
shows an inflexible determination to
extradite criminals on the Rio Grande,
believing extradition necessary to pre

THE NATIONAL DEC'RUM.
Gen. Trevins and Gov. Charles, of
Coabuila, arrived at the capital on ;he
16th inst. fiom the border states,bring
ing favorable accounts of the situation,
excent that discontent is manifest
at Diaz’ determination to extradite
all crimiua’s. Several regiments of
infantry and cavalry have marched for
the bolder. The allies of the Lerdu
faction are still at work. The Lerdes-
ta are actively organizing to co-oper

severe C lughs, Croup, Aatbma, Pneu

diseased. No person can use it without
immediate relief. Three doses will re

duty of all Druggists to rec-.mmend it
to the poor dying consumptive, at least
to try one bottle, as 40,000 dozen bot

FEUfirV ACER OF ROWLAND
CORN.
Statement or Sr. Jsa T. 4'armlchael,
of Coweta County.
The land on which this crop of corn
was raised, was In cultivation fifty yeans
ago, but having become very badly
washed, it was not cult! vated any more
nntil about twenty-eight years ago.
Daring the war it was again turned out
aa worthless, and so remained until
some four years since, when I began to
cultivate it again, and to restore it by
ray system of levee ditching by which
I have secured a good alluvial soil of
from one to three feet in depth over the
entire bottom. These ditches keep
themselves cleaned all the time.
The land was broken in the latter
part of February last, with a common
one horse turning plow, and bedded
up the latter part of March with the
same plow. Tbe corn was planted on
the 7tn of May, by opening the bed
with small shovel and covering with
doable foot plow. About the last of
May it was ran around with bar side
of plow, and then chopped out with
hoes. Eight or ten days later two more
furrows were run with a one horse
turn plow, throwing dirt to the corn.
List of June I plowed the corn, put
ting five farrows to the row, with same
kind of plow having a
scraper behind it. Ten days later
it was hoed and laid by.
I planted fonr or five different kinds of
6eed. No fertilizer was applied to the
land, ' he sworn statements of Dr.
A bran ’oung, Joseph Young and J.
B. McClure show the quantity of land
to have been one acre only, and that
the corn gathered therefrom actually
measured ninety-two (92) bushels.
Experiment With One Acre of Cora.

ground was fair uplaud, well broke in
the spring. On the 20th of Jane it was
so wed broadcast with a compost made
as follows: 1,000 pounds acid phos
phate, 400 pounds salt, 300 pounds d/
stable manure, 20 bushels ashes. Then
plowed under deep and subaoiled.
Laid off in rows f *ur feet apart and
strewed in 600 Dounds in tbe drill of
the best commerc : .1 fertilizer. For fear
of unjustly injuring the reputation of
the guano will not name it. Then plant
ed the corn about 12 iuches in the drill,
cultivated with a harrow and kept clean.
Result, a large amount of forage; but
there was less than ten bushels of corn
matured. Loss on the acre was fall
$25. _
It is proper to add that there was a
a continued droutn all through the
month of August, while the crop was
making effort to mature.
There is certainly a great risk in high
manuring with thick planting, unless
provision is made for irrigation.
Hoping that our failure will save
some other poor “clodhopper” from
being kughed at, and at the same tima
save Dis money, I send you this for
your columns. J. M. C. Reed.

Elilon, H Miner Couuijr, Ur
The lucerne was sowed March 15.
1874; used as macute, the formula ot
M. George Ville.* Tne land was deeply
plowed, with two horse plow, and sub
soiled and harrowed. The seed was
sowed broadcast with the manure and
brushed in. Two crops were cut the
first year. Siuce then five cuttings have
been made each jear. In 1876 there
was applied to the land thirty cart loads
of ashes. In 1877, after second cutting
there was sowed on tho field one bushel
of plaster. There whs cut Dom the
land this year 6,129 lbs hay. Expense
of cutting, caring and harvesting same
$6 27; and ten cents per bale for baling
same.
I wou’d, however, advise that the
Lucerne shoaid be planted in drills,
eighteen inches apart I used ten
pounds of seed at a ccs* of 35 cents per
pound, seed procured from A. B. Allen
Co., of New York.

London, October 27.—The Parte cor

President MacMahon has fallen under
the influence of th«we who are deter

but the cabinet is divided about how

agriculture, might go as far as
A SECOND DISSOLUTION
of the chamber of depu ies, but if the
senate returned this they would resign.
There are others who dream of estab
lishing a dictatorship on the mins of
the constitution. The correspondent
does not believe President MacMahon
will follow them that far. Well-in
formed conservatives think that a ma-
ority of the cabinet will be pleased to
rave the senate refuse a second disso
lution and thereby afford them the op.
portunity to bow
TO THE WILL OF THE SENATE
instead of the chamber of deputies.
The correspondent farther adds: “If
such te really the idea of the govern
ment, 1 think the senate will be dis
posed to facilitate their retreat” It
may be remembered in this connection
that Gambetta in his recent speech at
Chateau Cbinon, bitteny attacked the

in a very conciliatory tone oi the other
parties and predicted an eventual alli
ance between them and the republicans

Colorado Springs, Col. Oct. 22, 1877.
Dr. Wm. II. While, Atlanta.—My
Dear Sir: Your letter would have
been answered long ago, but for the
supreme indefiniteness of my plans.
But now that I have decided, will try
and perform the pleasurable duty.
Instead however, of attempting a des
cription of our retnrn trip from “San
Juan,” as you requested, let me tell
yon a little about some of the many
attractive places in this part of Colora
do. Bnt first, I must preface my des
cription, by quoting trim some one,
recentlyjdefecribiug this.b ’zatiful^ e e
ry, these, in my case, only too tr*»«
words. “Brilliant writers have e sa. Q1
in vain to do it justice, and weitx
the monarch of them all in genius, I
should feel that ’twere sacrilege al
most to point ray puny pen for deed so
majestic,” I assure you, could y. u
once see the beau* ies of these graud
old mountains, you would feel asT do,
in attempting to describe them, the
force oi these few words.
As you see from the cip’.ion of my
letter 1 am at what I call ray "Colora
do home,” with ray l'rieud Mr. Btnker
of the Crawford house, to whom Gov.
Brown gave me a letter of introduction,
and who has been exceedingly kind to
me, as indeed he is to all of his guests
I have spent most of my town ibj
here, finding it quite a pleasant luue
place, aud surrounded by mauy points
of interest. Like Denver, it is a little
city of the plains; perfectly level and
prettily laid .off, with the shady cotton
wood tree on all the streets, making
the most splendid drives I ever saw;
the population is about four thousand.
Imagine yourself in a nice buggy
with me for awhile and I’ll drive you
first to “Monument park,” where we
wifi see, I’ll venture to say. some of
the queerest formations in the world,
and it te an easy matter to imagine
yourself in some ancient cemetery;
with monuments in almost every con
ceivable variety of forms, some of them
as regular as if they had been turned
in a lathe, others fashioned into
more rugged shapes, and representing
to the imagination figures of animals,
statues aud beings. Some argue that
these curious and fantastic forms are
caused by the action of wind; others
attribute it to the rising and falling of
the water, which, »hey claim nice
covered the park. This last however
I think is the m re reasonable suppo
sition, and for ibis reason the park is
dotted here and there with small hil.s
or bluffs, and it is a noticeable fact
that the monuments are found princi
pally on these bluffs. VVhile out on
the * plains s »me days sin^e, not very
far from this park, I chanced to cros* a
small branch and accidentally looking
down ite bank-, saw a few formations
exactly like those in the park, and as
far as I could judge of the same com
position. They were protected from
the wind by the banks of the stream
and just above the surface of the
water, where the bed of the stream
had evidently once been, but since, by
the constant .flowing of the wate», has
been v ashed deeper. Thus sho..ing
the resemblance, as regards their posi
tion to those on the bluffs, where water
may once have been, giving tnein
their peculiar forms, and then, like the
little stream, flowing on to perform its
mission some where else. The park
is about nine miles north o( this place,
and now that we have seen ite beau
ties and wonders, lei's drive a few
miles south west and see the beauti ul
little valley “G en Eyrie.” The glen
lies just at the foot ot the mountains
aud scenery through it, like every view
of thee inouniai s is nugnifLeit
with a giory • >f its own. VVithita k*
markable’and fantastic masses of rock;
its beautiful trees and shrubbery; the
bright and sparkling waters of Camp
creek flowing though it; its banks ou
either hand fringed with foliage of ten
der green or every tint of the rainbow,
as the season is summer or autumn.
Beautiful wild flowers grow here in
profusion, especially noticeable among
them is the trailing clematis, winding
its snowy flowers among the shrubbery
along side tbe stream, m&kiug a
beau'.if ul contrast with gentle spring
or mild summer’s tender green. But
we must hasten on and see that won
der of wonders, the “Garden of tb©
Gods.” Here &ga'<n we fiud innumer
able quaint and artistic formation.
The Cathedral rock towering above ite
companions, resembling some ancient
castle, with its rugged walls and frag
mentary windows. The Balance rock,
which seems to be on the very verge
of toppling over, and yet I dare say a
hundred men could not move it from
its adamantine foundation. On all
sides are the rocky groups, many of
them assuming forms, from which one
can fashion whatever the mind dictates.
There is tbe seal making love to the
nun, the eagle, the elepant attackin.
the lion etc. etc, and hundreds of
other equally fauciful obiecta. “The
tradition of these rocks is interesting
It is that this was once the abode of
Jupiter, he, who from high O.yinpus
flung theb dis of his wrath down upon
the world, that before bis exploits and
conquests in the Gtecten archipebg ,
he lived and ruled in this beautiiul
garden; that here the forces of the
g dsmet in battle strong, and hurling
ikese rocks at each other, caused them
to assu-ue their novel shapes.
Those familiar with the locality will
take you to *upiter’s cave, and also to
tbe great hollow in the rocks where,
tbe story goes, the beautiful Venus
was wont to perform her matutinal
ablutionB. With thisglauce at these
curious ireaks of nature, we will pass
on to the cclebtated Manitou, with its
eiegint hotels, fine scenery and soda,
sulphur aud iron water springs. It is
needless to say this is the principal
health and pleasure resort in »he state.

Washington. Oct. 27 —The Repub
lican iu an article on “The Duty ol the
Senate,” among o her bitter things,
says: “We should regard it as a palpa
ble dereliction of dntv on their part
if they ehonlu yield their approval to a
proscriptive line of policy that removes
capable and honest republicans Irom
office and places in their stead tbe en
emies of republicans or republics os
who are not their peers in any regard.”
In a separate paragrph the paper says:
“The fact has leaked out that Fitzsim
mons, the de nocrat who lias been ap
pointed marshal for Georgia, is a
nephew of Wade Hampton, and that
his appointment was asked by the
South CArolina governor. Perhaps Mr.
Hampton will be called on to suggest a
name for the English mission.” Tl ese
extracts are telegraphed as showing
the feeling which animates the wing
of the radical party ot
hich f e Republican is the organ.
RANDALL AND THE COMMITTEES.
In conversation, Speaker Randall
scid that in forming the house c om
mittees, he had endeavored as far as
was possible to harmonize the claims of
sections aud of individuals. He had
consulted with members of his own
party, and in this way he had received
valuable assistance. The committees
were now all complete so far as the
democratic partoi them was concerned.
He would bj engaged for the rest of
the week in assiguiug places to the re
publicans, and on this point the views
of prominent members of that party
would be given careful consideration.
He said that as there are ninety repub
licans who are new members it will, of
course, take some time aud thought as
to the proper disposition to be made 01
them on the committees. Seven dem
ocrats will be assigned to each com
mittee and four republicans. This is a
much more liberal proportion than was
generally allowed under the republican
speakers.
