The Matter l'’luully Settled. Washington, April 2.—-At the cabi net mooting this morning this morn ing the secretary of war was dirootod to prepnro an order trunsforing tho troops from tho stale houso in Colum bia, S. C., to their camp. Washington, April 2.—A formal or der to Gon. Huger to romovo tho troops from tho stnto house at Colum bia is being propnred by tho Secreta ry of War, but is not to bo sent to to linger or made public till to-morrow., Gon. Sherman was clos- olod with Secretary McCrary for Romo time boforo the preparation for tho order was commenced, which will bo in the nature of a dispntoh to Con- erul Huger nud not through the reg ular military channels. It is general ly beliovod that the order will not bo sent until submitted to tho cabinet to-morrow afternoon. Gov. Chamborlaiu, up to 1 o'clock, did not boliovo tho conclusion to re move the tropps from tho statu houso had boon reached. When he had offloial confirmation of tho foot, ho said, "it ends tho strngglo and makes Gon. Hampton practically, governor.” Chamberlain dines with tho president to-night and loaves for Columbia on Wednesday morning. When Gov, Hampton was inform ed this afternoon, in ndvnnco of tho offloial notification that au order wonld bo issued for tbo romovnl of the troops from the stnto houso, he expressed himself much gratified, but said it was no moro than he oxpeotod ftorn the principles announced in the inaugural addreBS. Ho was somewhat 1 to know whether tho order !iuld take immediate ufloot. ns he bed to bo present in Columbia > it was executed. However, as pri uitionary measure hu would at on italegraph to his friends in Co- lui U his earnest wish that there sh Id be no outwnrd demonstration I as might disturb tho pubho rand ho was satisfied his advice respootod.

Will they profit by it? The special object of this articlo is to sound the alarm to tho country, that many farmers are returning to tbo old and ruinous poliey of rnising much cotton and little corn. Wo de- rivo this information diroet from one of tho most extensiva and entorpris ing farmers in tho stnto. Stimulated by tho late increased price and demand for the groat staple and the enhanced credit which tbo prudent operations of tho past year bavo already created, our Imsmnd- inon aro laying in larger supplies of bacon, nnd purchasing commercial fertilizers to an extent unprecedented Tho latter are procured upon terms highly favorable, nnd wo com mend their general use under free ne gro labor of booping up tho produc tiveness of the soil. But alas, nino tonths of these plant stimulants aro to ho applied to tho cotton crop, and though it is now certain Hint tho yield in oats will he greatly diminished, yet, in many portions of tho state tho acreage of corn ih said to bo smaller than for several years past. This is simply suicidal, nnd affords tho best possible illustration of tho folly nnd greed of man. Now, wo ask, wlmt will bo the con dition of .Southern cotton growers next yoar if, ns highly probable, the Turkish question culininates in a gen eral European war, and meat and broad go kiting upwards, and cotton takes a docondiiig grade, which will be tho inevitable result? • Suppose, also, a dry sunnnurciirtnilH tho yield of the cereals and tlin rava ges of tho graHshoppors are saporad- dod ? Is it not well to bo prepared for Hiieh contingencies? In the event they should occur, and cotton fails to pay for its production, lo say nothing of tho intonso satisfaction and com fort of full hnrncs, wlmt. n bonanza tile southern planter would onjoy in tho foreign demand for liis surplus grain and other farm products. Now therefore, whilo there is yet abundant time, and wo are masters of tho situation, by every consideration of good sense, patriotism and sound poliey, we ndjuro our farmers to cut off tbo cotton crop at least one-third, hotter half, and supply tbo hiatus with corn, pons, German millet, up land rico, Biigar cano, and sweet po tatoes. And don't spare tho fertili zers upon these crops. They will mul tiply the yiold almoBt indefinitely, nnd wo Hindi retain our erodit, and ronlly become independent and happy Tho following oases, oarriod to tho the Supromo Court from Polk, lmvo had n hearing : MoClaiu, vs. Cherokoo Iron Company.

It is ns follows: "Eggs with tho air bladder on tho sides will produce pullets.” The old man was hu certain of the truth of his dogma, nnd tho poultry yard so far confirmed it, that I determined to make experiments upon it this year. I lmvo done so, carefully registering evory 'bladder vorticle' or bladder on ono side, rejecting every ono which was nut decidedly ono way or tho other, as iu some it wns only slightly out of tho centre. The following is the result: 58 chicbens hatched; 3 aro doad; 11 too young yot to deoido upon tboir Rex ; of tho remaining 44 every one has turned out truo to the old man’s tboory.
