lorcat vr ur «(ni<ultqral column, u wall
■a clippings from rxrharger, in re ation
to eropa tbroophcut ronr aiate. I tee
in your paper ol the 7tb inat, » mention
of where Captain Henry G. Lamar, of
Baker county, will likely reap twenty
hualiela of wheat to the acre, and aleo
where Ju<!jre Wright,of Dougherty,ex-
picta a yield equally aa good. Now I
would like exceedingly to have aoroe
of I here gentlemen giye us their m'de
of preparing toe ground, etc., what
manure, if any, is used; or, in lieu of
this, won't you instruct o»? Youra,
very truly, Aanaxw Jamaon.
The above, and one or two other let
ters asking information about wheat,
have been reO-ived, and we reply In
regard to rust, wheat growers generally
know that when the rust attacks only
the leavea little harm is done, hut when
it is sctuered over the leaves and
atalks, and the weather becomes moist
and warm, it grows rapidly and soon
destroys the crop. After the rust t«
gins an arrest of the filling out of the
grain takes place. If the grains are in
the dough state when it b< gins, it is
better then to cut the wheat; if the
grams are in the milk state, cutting
will not answer. Bust is not as apt to
attack wheat that linens ear'.v, hence
it is better to tow early varieties. Some
persona have sown salt and lime on
their wheat ground, and believing these
things stimulated growth and thus
worked an advantage. Soma think a
lop dreaaingof stable manure, followed
hv h arrowing, would have a good ef
ect.
lo make good crops—If you have
land you can devote to the purpoee,sow
peas on it broad cast, at the same time
lime applying from ISO to 200 pounds
of some good -uperphosphale—one that
has at least ten per cent of available
phnrpbnricacid, and if it is pine land.it
should have about two per cent of pot
a h.
Turn under the crop of pea vines in
Heplemlwr, and apply on top of the
land afier plowing in the pea vines,
four or five bushels of lime per acre,
broad cast. At the proper time sow
and harrow in the wheat.
If it in intended to sow wheat on land
on which acrcp of corn is now growing,
apply broad cast, when the corn is last
plowed, from ISO to 200 pounds per
acre of a good superphosphate, and
plant peas in rows between the corn
rows. The superphosphate will very
materially benefit the corn as well as
the peas. Phosphoric acid ia a good seed
producer, and ahould be used to pro
duce all seed crops.
When the corn Is gathered either cat
nil burn the s'
and burn them
you turn under the pea vines. If the
season ia favorable superior wheat will
be made.
In his directions for wheat growing
tbe commissioner of agriculture says:
“If possible procure seed from a reli
able grower. Early ripening is an all
important quality. Hardiness to re
sist disease is next. C dor or sixe of the
grain are minor considerations. Ked
wheals are generally more hardy. The
early red May is an old and very popn
lar variety, and generally eecspes rust
by reasons of earlineas and general
hardiness. The early red purple straw
ia another good varieiy. The Nicarau-
ga, a new variety seeded for three year*
by Mr. C. D. B ack, Gampbelllon, Ga.,
ia believed to bo peculiarly rnat-proof.
but ia somewhat objectionable on ac
count ol its exceedingly long rough
beard.
“.Select, if possible, high, rolling land
with clay subsoil, not too rich, and after
thorough preparation of the soil by
deep plowirgand harrowing, sow 15 b
October to 1st December, according to
latitude—using, if convenient, the Tol
lowing compost, which will answer also
for oats:

one, and the three when mixed is still
better. For tbe beat winter pasture,
we know of nothing to equal orchard
grass, blue grass and red clover sown
together Tbs clover does finely for
three or four yean when it begins to
give wav to the vigor
ous growth of the orchard
grass. The clover leaves the ground in
a fine condition for the grass to spread.
The orchard grass improves by age,
and will last a long time. One pound
of white clover town to tbe acre is ex
ceedingly beneficial to the above mix-
tore. Tbe b'oe grass is of slower growth
than the orchard, but it is very tena-
c'oua, never lets go, holds on until a
good strong root is formed, when it
enroea forth in beauty and luxuriance.
The planting is very simple. Plow
the land thorougt.lv and deep and finely
f mlvtrixe it. Then barrow over smoo'h*
y, and if cot rich soil, use 200 pound i
of good commercial super-phosphate
per acre, or 20 wagon loads of lot ma
nure. First spread over your fer
tilizer, then sow your eeed and
harrow in, and if convenient, roll'
After this, a top dressing of
land plaster in tbe sprirg and ,al1
be of great advantage to you meadow.
August and September are considered
the best months for seeding. Februa
ry, March and April are also good sea
sons, tbe sooner the better. Clover
when quite young may be killed by
freeze, but orchard, blue, and red top
grass are perfectly bardy and maybe
sown any month durirg the winter.
Ked top, or herd grass, also makes a
good winter pasture, but suits only
damp or wet lands.
Lucero is almost invaluable, but in
should be sown alone, in drills and cul
tivated. On your winter pasture you
may sow oats to advantage, plow in be
fore ‘sowing tbe grasses. Do not pas
ture too soon.
FL0BAL ITEMS.
—A simple means of temporarily
changing the colors of natural flowers
is by immersing the stems in liquid
ammonia. In this way blue, violet and
purple flowers are changed to green,
and white ones to yellow.
—Geraniums require sun, air and
water; a rich loamy soil, and weekly
watering of liquid manure. A good
compost ia made of one half two year
old manure and one half good, fresh
loam.
—Fuchsias and heliotropes can hard
ly have the soil made rich enougb,
always provided the drainage ' _
If th'e foliage on your helioti opes turn
black and tall off,shower ithalf a dozen
times a day.
—Fine flowers can be had by keeping
up the soil to a regular degree of
strength. The floral creation requires
fuod.
—Roses require a rich,rather compact
soil, but at roe same time one tbat is
friable. If the soil is naturally light,
thoroughly rotted cow manure mixed
with good loam will be best for en
riching the soil. Tbe more delicate
tea roses do best in a lighter soil than
the other varieties.
—Nothing beautifies a house more
than healthy house plants. To be
healthy they mu,thave proper care and
attention.

crops, tbe fertilizers should ue applied

The Commissioner also aays: “Far
mers who are determined lo succeed
will have perfected their plans, aecur

thin report will reach many of them,
and are only waiting for the seed
time to arrive. Let every step in the
preparation of the soil, the manure*,
the selection of seed, and the sowing,
be as nearly perfect aa possible. Sow
no more than can be sown according
to the requirements which have been
taught by experience an J by precept
to lie necessary to rttoceea. A farmei
who shall merely scratch in a hall
hnahela or three pecks of inferior seer
to the ecre, on thin land covered with
cirna’alka, grass and wtela, using,
perhaps, the worn-out plows from the
lust summer’s plowing, has no right
to expect a good yield of good wheat
—no right to complain if Provident-*
dees not smile upon bis slipshod ef
forts, or perform a miracle for his
special benefit.
The farmer who has not secured
his seed wheat, should do to wilhoo
delay. Karly ripening red wheats an
the most reliable. Ezrl
early purple straw (red), Fulls, Ntear
augua, are recommended. Tappahsn
nock (white) does well in middk

land if possible. Prepare the groom:
by deep plowing, and sow the sees!
and fertilisers, and harrow or plow in
smoothly with a small plow. It wil
pay to roll the land after covering the
seed."
If wheat Is sown on cotton land, or
any land which cannot be prepared bs

rinea, it should have a good super
phosphate, applied with the reed, un
less the composts n commended by the
commissioner can be prepared and

It ia netter to tow a few acres and so

bushels per acre.

, r.VRU NOTES.
—Those whe prepared their ground
thoroughly, planted early, and had
good seed, find their com coming for
ward finely.
—To drive insects from vines—sprin
kle the vines with plaster, soot or air
slacked lime.
—Shorten in your fruit tries, that is
do not trim np your trees five or six
feet, but let toe limbs come near the
ground.
Remember tbat frequent plowing
and aurriiig the soil is Equivalent to
good coat of manure.
—Worms in b rses are canned from
hard work, poor food, and general neg
lect. For ordinary cases of worms,
common salt, nutritions food and pore
water will prove saiisfac'orv. 8alt
ahonld always be kept in the stall ol
horses.
To wash the wool on the sheepY
c is not a profitable practice. Tni
wool is not half washed, and the differ
ence in price will not psy for the lose
01 weight, to ssy nothing ot the tronbie
and risk for both ’men end fl ,ck. If
the sheep sre kept reasonably clean,
and the wool free from rnbbif b, it wil!
be found better than having to wash
them to get rid of unnecessary filth.
—Hog Cholera—The following is
good reimdy for lour grown begs: To
2 gallons of buttermilk add J gallon of
soft lye soap, } pint spirita of turpen,
line, } pint kero ene oil. Mix well and
put into tbe hog trough.
—All wbo can do ao should arrange
so ss to keep nogs in their apple or
chards to eat up all the wormy Iruit as
it drops during tbe season. In this
way, easier than bv any other, can the
ravages of the worms be checxeii
Where hogs are not sulfieient, a small
flock of aheep should be used.
—An intelligent and successful pouf
try breeder states that experiments
have satisfied him that the chickens
from hens led on oata are stronger and
more hardy than bom those fed on
corn.
-Stock Raising—This branch
farming has not received snfllcient at-
tention in onr state. The kinds and
breads of stock, si well as the manner
of keeping, decide the question of nrofit
or loss. We should hieed only from
the beet parents, as to constitution
soundness, symmetry and nil theqnuli
ties desired in their offspring. Any
breed can be modeled and improved by
proper crossing and ke 'ping.

W e have not yet received a report of

we learn verbally that two witnesses
swore positively that Palmer did noi
do tbe shooting, while it appears
that no witness swore poeilive-
ly to having seen and recog

shooting. That a tool murder *.*-
committed does not kdmit of question
But such was tbe confusion of teeli
mooy, the darkness of the night, and
tbe grea: excitement of the chief wit
neases for the state, that the court
seems to have been forced to the con
clusion that the proof was not “evi

said heretofore, we do not qoestion tbe
honesty of purpese with which the
coon endeavored faithfully to oomph

great reeponsibility which devolved ot.
Judge O'Neal and the difficulty ol ren
dering a decision which would be
universally accepted; and the
contemplation tf hit delicate

cism even if, in onr judgment, he
honestly went beyond the require

that the bond, though small, ia tuffi

the law requires where the case is bail

Special to the Charleston New. anil Courier.
ffrAKTANBCRG, May 27 —In accor
dance with your instructions to visit
Bald Mountain and report the facta in
regard to the alleged rupture of that fa-
tuoas peak, I left Spartanburg last
Thursday morning, and after a fatigu
ing ride of forty miles through the
mountains reached Bald Mountain next
day. F>nding it impossible to recoL-
ciie col flicting rumors, or to ascertain
the truth by inquiry, I procured gold, a
and ascended the peak the same after
noon. But one man had ever seen the
fissuie.acd him Icould not find. After
a long and painful search, however, we
finally chanced upon the objset of our
quern, and found it to be a crack about
one hundred yards in length, about f zt
feet in width, and of unknown depth
The crevice, which runs nearly due east
and west, ia parallel with and bnt a
abort distance from the brow of the pi -
cipice, which mark* the southern boun
dary of tbe moon lain. Tbat it ia ot re
cent origin waa plainly to be seen, and
is farther proved by the frerhly tom
roots of the trees groeirg near it. Car -
fal investigation lead me to the con ii *
sion that the crevice merey marks tic
separation of a very large aecuon of ihe
cliff from the bedy of the mountain,
and the break will result, sooner or
later, in aland slide, differing only in
extent from others like it and of fre
quent occurrence in this legality. There
has been no appearance ot smoke, nor
smell of sulphur, and the mountain ex-
K rienocd ila last ague at least a year

or not tt e latter was caused bv ihe for

one told him if he would get same tar
and lard, mixed fend rub it on the hogs
that it would kill the vermin. But the
gentleman having no lard, robbed tar
un them. For several days his hoga
failed to come np, and he concluded to
look for them. He found them in

—Thomasville Times: Most of the
cotton has been "chopped out” ard
plowed, and ia free from grass. Corn
is receiving the second plowing, and
generally looks well. Sugar-cE
fine and the quantity planted consider
ably in exce.8 of last year. The oat
crop ia being cradled, and is, perhaps,
the largest ever grown in the county.
The acreage in ground peas, chufas, etc.,
is unusually large, which argues favor-

prospects for the future are decidedly

Washington, May 16.—The mis
ohievous god has shot his flower-tipped
■-rows into ancient circles, and
-mongthe desperately wonnded are
the Hon. Thomss Swann ol Maryland
and Mrs. J. W. Thompson of Trenton,
N. J. Gov. Swann is nearly three score
years and ten; his scant locks are silver
ray. For many years he was presi
dent of the Baltimore and Ohio rail
road company. In those days he was
politically a whig. Later he became
one of the pillars ot the know nothing
party, and under the notorious pit
ugly regime was twice elected mayor
Baltimore. Daring the war his sympa
thies were with tbe south, and he grad
ually drifted to the democracy. Bring
rich and powerful, he soon became
leader, and was elected governor
Maryland.
While in that position he was chosen
United States senator by the legisla
ture, but declined the proffered honor
because the then lieutenant-governor
was a republican, and he deemed it
impolitic to the place the state govern,
ment in his hands. After the expira
tion of the gubernatorial term he was
elected to congress, and is now aerving
hia fifth term in that body.
Only a few weeks since his will wss
made public, wherein he bequeathed
about $3,000,000 to hia children, grand
children and great grandchildren.
Next we hear of his approaching nup-
tnals with the widow Thompson, rel
ict of the renowned president of the
Pennsylvania railroad company, the
man who raised Tom Scott frqm obscu
rity, and to whose position Scott has
sn. ceded. The great railway king left
hia widow with ready millions. She '
a daughter of the late Aaron Ward
New York, a sister of Mrs. Simuel
Randall, wife of Ihe present speaker
the house. Mrs Thompson is one
tbe most well-preserved woman on tl
continent. Hervariedaccomplishmenta
fit her for any society. Sne has trav
elled the world over, is biessed'with ex
cellent health, rare tact, charming man
nere, and altogether is considered the
mestfuc.nating woman in New Jene?.
The wedding will occur before the
summer eolatice, and the billing and

raallou with Her Slater.
Saodenyilla Courier.
We are glad to ace tbe press almost a
unit in favor of the immediate pardon,
by the governor, of Mrs. Kate Sothern.
More light has been thrown upon the
case by new evidence which has come
to the surface since the triaL The
whole matter is now in the hands of
Governor Colquitt, who, doubtless, will
ere long set the unfortunate sufferer at
liberty.
A few days tince, we in company
with Col. T J Smith and his estimab e
lady, had a conversation with Miss
Amarilla Hambrick, a sister ot Kale
Sjihern, who has been for the jrast
twelve months in the penitentiary, and
has twelve months yet to serve, she hav
ing been charged w'ith being accessory
to the murder of Mrs Cowart, and sen
tenced tor two years. She was assign
ed to Col Smith’s charge whoee excel
lent lady haa done everything consis
tent with the law to mskeber imprison
ment pleasant and uselnl to her. Mrs
Smith has learned her to cut aud sew
garments and do all kinds of useful
house-work. Miss Hambrick was only
fifteen years old at tbe time of the un
fortunate occurrence, and is now in her
seventeenth year.
We learned Iron, her that her father
is a land owner m P.ckens county; that
the whole family work out in the field;
that they make pienty, and to spare.
That the family consisted of father
mother and four daughters, Kate and
an elder one being marriea, she and a
yonnger sister remaining under the
paternal root She states that Kate is
now in her twentieth year. Sne says
that Narcissa Fowler had been previ
ously married to a man by the name ol
Cowart, and tbat Cowart had qmt her
on account of her intimacy wun S Ah
ern, tne husband of her sister Kate; that
Mrs Cowart had slandered her sister and
used every device to separate her from
her husband; that after their marriage.
Kite had uflieuced her husband to
move off fourteen miles, hoping tnere -
by to retain his undivided affections;
that Kate was a member ol good stand
icg in the Baptist church, and that on
the evening of the violent death of Mrs.
Cowart, Kite and her husband paid tne
lamily their first visit after their re
moval; that the family did not know
they were c.ming or they would rot
have had the dance, knowing her Bis
ter's aversion to that kind ot amuse
ment, and that Kate did not know of
the fact until she asked, “What are so
many people coming in lor?'' She
then threatened to leave her father’s
house, but being impormned to stay,
ahe remained. The dance began,
and about nine o’clock Mia. Cowart
entered the room accompanied by
a named Lewis; that after
the lapse of some time, as she after'
wards learned, Mrs. C. endeavored lo
get Sothern to dance with her, to whit h
her eister objected andaekud her net
to dance with Mr. Sothern, to whith
Mrs. C. replied, “I knew bob before
you did and have aa good right to him
aa yon.” She heaiu one say to the
other, did not know which, “I am
ready for yon;’’ that they g-asped each
ou er, and slapped and pulled each
other’s hair; tbat she took bold of both
and endeavored to puff them apart;
that ahe did not know Kate had aknife,
nor that Mrs. Cowart waa hurt until
she fed and soma one said, “She is
dead.” She said she had no intention
of injuring Mrs. C. Her only object
waa to separate and prevent them from
injuring each other.

The wily manufacturers of thete spurious
