Conmiunlcutcil. Mr. Editor:—There has boon much written, and moro said rolativo to tbo propor propotions of tbo various crops natural fo this section. A very largo does condemn tbo syutom of cotton planting n/most to it* exclusion. Of this class a largo majority aro con- Utimers who aro Interested in largo grain crops, and of consoquonco low prices. Wo roadily admit this is host fur non producers. j&uolhdr class, uot so uumorous, contond that as cotton fa tho prineiptd money crop, moro money can bo raado by planting all colfon-aud buying all itupplico. In fanning, as in almost overy thing ol«o, tbero is a middle ground, and in tins, wo thir k, Is to bo found tbo only safety for tbo southorn fanner and planter. It is this; Itaiwo all tho corn, whoat, oats, potatoos, liogn, cattlo and m tiles, nccossary for homo consumption and uso, but uot to soil; then raloo all tho cotton poa- siblo. Now for tho reasons* 1st We cannot successfully compote with tho Groat West in tho ruising of any of tho grain crops, and concc- quotilly in stock raining, for it is a no torious fact that they can mala and ship grain to tho south for loos than its production coats us. 2d. Corn impoverishes land morn than cotton. It will not bo douied that more is added to tho laud from the stalk, hulls, seed and leaves of cotton, than there from tho stalk iu Mhtfr. Editor:—Our oootlon within tbo past two woeks, has boon blessed with rain; somo places loo much, otb era hardly enough, but all groatly bonofltod. Crops havo improved con siderably aud with uo further disaster will mako a fair average. Cotton is brauohiug fiuoly, and heavily loaded with forms. Corn iu small but hns a good color and is growing finely. Our whout has all bcou threshed and hous ed in good condition. Tho quality is oxoolont, aud tho yield wo thiuk, rath er moro than an avorngo; somo of our (armors making as high as fourtcou buuhclo to ono sowing, aud that, too, without fertilizers, and by simply scratching iu tho seed iu lho old way, What could wo mako by proper prop- oration aud aliboral uaa of fortillzois ? Our Bnbbath Bchool and woekly pruyor mooting utill continues with uuabatod iu forest, A deep religious feeling seems to porvado our whole comtnuuily, aud much good iu expect oil to result thorofrom. A series of religious mootiugu will oommonco at Autioch Church on Fr day night boforo next 4tli Bubbnth. Tho Habbath School, Qraugors and citizous gouornly, purposo having n oolobratiou and basket dinner somo timo during next month, of which your roadoiu will be advised in duo timo. Wo think that tho “Record” man must bo getting rich, cluo iu backed by a heavy capital, for tho reason that ho proposoa to ftuuish so much n ail ing matter for such a email amount of wheat, and for tho farther roason that ho proposes to do tho county ad vertising for nothing. Conductors of nowspaporo, wo prccoivo aro not free from tho iutirmitio* of their fellow in on. If tho proprietor should hap pen to "mu aground" in his very uu- 8clfii.li efforts to maintain a news- papor without expense to its patrons, and a saving to tho lax payers of tho county of such a huyc amount of money which tho printers would oth- orwiso get, for in luting tho oounty advertisements, toll him not to "go west" but to “coiuo oast" wboro ho can at loast Loop himself and family in “hog and hominy," and not bo sub- joctod to HO many of tho petty annoy ances ol ucuvspapordom. As biographical skotches of nninvn living men booms to ho tho order of the day, wo propose . to furnish your readers at somo fuluro d vy, u sketch of the life of a very noted cilueti ol this county, viz, Cm* ' lUt* . • That's All 3d. An aero of land that will prodco twoufcy bushels of corn, will yield ono half bale of cotton. Tut tho corn ut soventy-fivo cents, (aud wo vonluro to say it will not bring fifty coats por bushel, if our fannors generally mako it to soli) and wo havo fifteen dollars por aero. Two hundred and fifty lbs of lint cotton, at ten conlo per lb will mako twenly-fivo dollars. It in said this incrcaso of vnluo of cotton over jru, la overbalanced by tho increas ed cost of its production. Wboro tbero is an equal division of tho crops between land lord uiln tmaut, tho for mer purchasihg laud, slock and food for tho steel;, tho landowner pays no moro for tho cultivation of an aero of cotton than for ono of corn. But you ask how about tho renter? Wo nu- nwor that in a largo majority of in stances ho dooo uot pay out ono cent for labor, which is dono by himsolf and family; .that there is not so much diflorcnco iu tho cost of tho produc tion of tho two, and that as renters seldom romnin at ono plaoo long, should tho crop of corn bo largo, tho cost of transportation would bo sufil- ciontly grout, if moved any distauco, to “oat up" tho profits. 4th. Wlmt would bo tho vnluo of corn, wheat, oats, hogs aud slock l ovory farmer wero to prcduco and raico them to soil? Wo off r tho fol lowing figures, behoving they aro not underestimated. Corn 50 clu por bushel. Whoat 75 cIb; oats 40 ctn; bacon 8 ots por lb; inulos and horses from fifty to seventy- five dollars oaoli. Proof: Whit is tho prioo of whoat w w, that fanners have just harvested ? Ono dollar por bushel, and that loo, when tho avorngo of tbo couuty will not o.xoood threo bushels per aero. Last win tor, wbon most farmers batl somo stock to soil, mules wore a drug. Why lay all our liunuei d troubles to tho production of cotton? Who is making urjuoy ? The morohant, law yer or doctor V Ono probably, in ton. There aro fully nu many farmers mako monoy. Wlmt is tho causoof this stringency in money matters all over tho union f Wo will not attempt to answer for tho Gcction north id Mnuoua and Dixooii lino. But for our own section wo an swer; a corrupt government, misguid ed legislation, lie extensive uso of high priced fertilisers, c.rjtenmcnts ii free labor, for which wo pay highc than almost any eouulry, aud great oat of all, reckless uubridolod oxtrav ngnnee. Loft by tho vioisitudea ui‘ tho war well nigh bankrupt, labor doiuoi alined, corrupted and controlled by unprincipled adventurers, our people plunged into oxtravaganqes tho most suicidal. Lot us all lonru lcssoua of economy from tho oad oxporii tho past few years, and whatever tho crop may bo, this southern land of ours, will soon flourish aud prosper with abundance and content, may it be.
