This subject, though “ stale and flat,” is far from being an “unprofitable” one. We insert elsewhere a most encouraging extract concerning the prospect ahead—taken in a general sense—as pertains to the Southern States. Did we desire to do so—and did our space permit—we could fill column after column of our paper with/* crop news” from our State papers, of the most favorable and encouraging character. And though we have, as yet, no large list of exchanges from abroad, yet we believe we hazard nothing in saying that wliat is true of Georgia is also true of all the Southern States. From all quarters of the “old Empire” come the “ glad tidings ” of good crops of small grain—that is, generally speaking : as a mat ter of course, there are isolated excep tions. In the immediate section in which we are located, every one seems satis fied with the yield of wheat. Oats, where planted at the right time and with the ground properly prepared, have come up to general expectation, we believe ; there are no doubt as before remarked, exceptions to the general rule. As to the growing crops of corn, cot ton, potatoes, etc., there is but one opinion, and that is that the prospect was never bright er. The rains are coming at the right time, the crops are clean, and unless some unseen and unlooked for calamity should overtake our land, the husbandman, as he thanks a kind and beneficent Providence for all His goodness, can truly exclaim, “ See the corn again in ear. How the fields and valleys smile ; Harvest now is drawing near, To repay the farmer’s toil.” Another Precinct Heard Froml A correspondent of the Southern Watch man, writing from Banks county, is in gux orious ecstacies over a “ little event*’ of the feminine gender which has transpired in his household. And at the same time the South ron, of Gainesville, says Judge W is looking more “ fatherly” than usual; it's of the male persuasion—weight 12 pounds! It is always pleasant to note the progress made in home productions abroad, but while so do ing, we must not forget what is due our own section. We learned, only a few weeks ago, from a most trustworthy source, that three “ new scholars” had been reported to the County School Commissioner, all in one day —in the same neighborhood—and that too, during the late “ dry spell.” Had the season been propitious, there is no calculating the result! “ That's the kind of county Jackson was!” CF"We acknowledge the receipt, at the hands of J. A. B. Mahaffey, Esq., of a copy of “ The Pioneer, a Journal devoted to the interests of all persons seeking information respecting the Free Homesteads and cheap lands of the Great West;” published by the Union Pacific R.

The Managing Editor of the News was the recipient, on Wednesday last, of a box of the most beautiful fruit of the “ plum species” we have ever seen. And what is best of all, the taste was equal to the appearance. They are denominated the “ Wild Goose” variety, and were from Mrs. 11. W. Belt, of Jeffer son, who will please accept our thanks for her kindness. Some of these plums measur ed 4| and 5 inches round. Death of an Esteemed Lady. The remains of Mrs. Olivia Dunnagan, formerly Hood, wife of Dr. A. B. Dunnagan, of Gainesville, was buried at her mother’s, five miles from Jefferson, on Thursday last. The funeral service was conducted by Rev. A. J. Kelley. She was a most estimable la dy, and leaves numerous relatives and friends to mourn her death. Planting “Small Corn I” The fed lowing little anoedote, read long ago, was brought vividly to mind the other and. y as, passing along a public road, we notic ed a most excellent friend “ and brother” making a desperate effort to “capture” some diminutive oats scattered over something like a ten acre “ patch.” We had no time to tar ry—can’t say how he succeeded. He told us if we wanted an item we could mention his oat crop. We have performed the duty. lie must certainly have “ planted small A traveler, on horseback, was once jog ging along a road in the wire-grass region of Georgia, when his attention was attracted by a small, tallow-faced urchin who was plowing a “ patch” of corn near the roadside, the patch being, in every respect, in full keeping with general surroundings. The traveler ac costed the boy, when the following conversa tion ensued: “ Hello, my son, your com seems to be small!” “Yes, sir, we planted small corn.” “ Ah ! but what makes it look so yellow?” “ We planted yellow com, sir.” “ Well.” said the traveler, as lie moved off, “ I don't think you’ll make more than half a crop.” “ No!” says the tow-headed youngster, raising his voice, “We don't expect to make but half a crop ; we only planted on shares any way /” The traveller trotted away, perfectly satis fied that it won’t do to judge by appearances at all times. FiPMany a “ bold soldier-boy,” as he reads the sublime piece of poetry on our first page, will, we cannot help but believe, “ live over again,” as it were, those days when on the “camping ground of Fame his tent was spread,” and, in imagination, hear the “ Roll Call—After the Battle.” [communicated.] “ Render Unto Caesar the Things That Are Caesar’s.” J. D. Johnson and A. H. Pendergrass have not got a Thresher, Reaper, Mower and Fan, all combined, but they have got a first-class Tresher, (Spike,) a Bill Arp Horse-Power, and a good Fan. which, when properly managed, will do you excellent work, and on short time. They are now on the wing, threshing for the public. In six days, they set down their Thjesher at thirteen places, and threshed, in the aggregate, 1200 bushels of grain. On Saturday, June 26th, they threshed for Mr. James Elder, 33 bushels in 22 minutes.— Next gentleman will please step to the front! Paris. For the Forest News. Legg’s Mineral Springs—Free to All I Editor Forest News:— It may not be generally known, even to all the citizens of Jackson county, that they have free access to as fine mineral water as there is in the South, almost at their vert' doors. Some remarkable cures have already been effected by the free use of Legg's Mine ral Springs, four miles from Jefferson. By careful analysis, these springs are known to contain Iron, Sulphur, Manganese, Potassa. Soda, Magnesia, Lime, and just such other constituents as make them a specific for Dyspepsia. Rheumatism, Liver and Kidney diseases, and all diseases of the blood and skin. One after another of these springs boil up, for hundreds of yards, making quite a little stream, at times almost obstructed by the thick mineral deposit. One hundred yards below these springs, and surrounded by a beautiful grove, is a neat white-washed Bath-house, through which this little mineral stream is conducted, giving the shower-bath to all who desire it. The trunks of the trees around the springs are white-washed, rustic seats prepared, and the invalid cannot help but feel cheerful as he views these beautiful life-giving fountains. Mr. Lego informed us that he had made no preparations to take boarders this season, on account of the feeble condition of his health ; but that he would give to all who may desire it, the free use of his springs, bath-house, wood, and camping ground. We have thus, Mr. Editor, given you but a glimpse of what may prove to be a great source of health and wealth to the citizens of Jackson county. Anonymous. Jackson County. Ga.. June 25, 1875. For the Forest News. Oats versus Com. Editor News :—Last year I commenced sowing the common Yellow Oat upon thin upland that had been planted in oats the spring previous, but which were not worth cutting at the proper time. I sowed at least two bushels to the acre, and turned them un der as deep as I could with a one-horse plow. I sowed on through September, and finished in October ; a part of the land had been lying out and I turned under weeds as high as my head. I commenced sowing again January last, upon land adjoining that sowed in the fall, turning them under in the same way; and now for the result: Those planted from August to October, are now ready to cut; are from waist to shoulder high, and as many as fort}’-two stalks from one grain where they had room to spread. Those sowed in Janu ary are scarcely worth cutting. Adjoining these oats, is a field of corn, which, with four plowings and lioeings will not probably yield more than ten bushels per acre. The fall oats will yield twenty bushels per acre; at least eight times more work has been done to the corn than to the oats, and the money value of the corn will be about half that of the oats. But suppose the yield of the oats only equal to that of the corn, there is a dif ference in favor of the oats of all the labor done to the corn since it was planted, besides the improvement of the land. Now, Ido not mean to discourage the growing of so impor tant a crop as corn. Cultivate the best lands in corn and sow the thin uplands in oats in the fall. Philomatiiean. Jackson County, <Ja..

Dis patch. John Purifoy, the negro, while in Fulton county jail condemned to death for murder, had to make a written request to lawyers and newspaper reporters not to “trouble” him any further. We think that John will be lucky if he escapes them even in another world. We learn”from the Augusta Chronicle that Columbus \Y imberly, who in 1872 was elected tax collector of Burke county, as an “inde pendent” supported by Radicals, and who has since held over in consequence of the inability of the Democrat elected in 1874, to give bond, has been committed to jail as a defaulter. It It is said that he is in default SB,OOO to the county and SII,OOO to the State. John Purifoy was hung in Atlanta on Friday, for the murder of John Casey. lie confessed his guilt, but did not appear to be as sanguine of forgiveness and salvation as most murderers are. He said on the gallows that he did not feel certain about it. He struggled severely for a few minutes, and was pronounced dead, and cut down after hanging fifteen minutes. The Blakely News says: Mr. U. J. Bush, of that county, while out squirrel hunting re cently, discharged his gun, and so great was the rebound “that it broke his arm ; the ram rod flew out of the thimbles, going to the dis tance of some forty yards, and the gun passed backwards, and reversing ends, the muzzle went some six inches into the ground. We believe that the editor of the News is a preacher. The Rome Commercial gives the following mode offixing up a “strategic bait” for big fish, which it says has been successfully tried by Jay Cooke and others. [We never be fore heard of Jay Cooke’s success in cath ing anything but suckers and gudgeons.]— “Take a large glass jar and fill it with water ; then put into it as many minnows as it will hold. Put the jar, with its contents, into the fish hole that you frequent. The big fish, seeing their coveted prey and hungry for the expected feast, will swarm about the jar. Drop your hook among them and haul out the victims of this novel delusion until you get tired of the sport, or ashamed of thus swin dling the piseenian dupes.” li ♦♦ - A Free Horse at Rest. During the pioneer days of lonia, the town had an editor who was patient and long suffering. Some of the members of the 'Lurch got him to give S2O toward securing a minister; then they wanted $5 for the heathen ; then they wanted their religious no tices inserted free ; then he was asked for $25 toward helping to build a parsonage, and he finally found that he was giving the church more than he gave his family. lie, neverthe less, “ hung on” for a time longer, until one evening he went to prayer-meeting, and was asked to leave his office for a week and go and help clear the grounds for a camp meet ing. That was the last straw, and he arose up and said : “Gentlemen, I’d like to go to heaven along with you. I know you all. You are clever and obliging, and kind and tender, and it would be nice for us all, as a congrega tion, to go in together, but I’ve concluded to leave you and dodge in along with somebody from Detroit, Lapeer or Grand Rapids. It’s money, money, all the time, and, I've given this church until, if my wife should die, she’d have to go to heaven barefooted.’’ The congregation seemed to realize that a free horse was being rode to death. They let up on the editor and pacified him. He even had a special tent assigned him at the camp meeting, and all was well. A Vision of the Future. Yesterday morning a young man who was on his way up the river, having a satchel filled with a remedy for corns, a lotion to remove freckles, and many boxes of tooth-paste suc ceeded in selling a negro resident of Clay street aSO cent bottle of freckle remedy. The purchaser was exhibiting it to some of his friends, when one of them exclaimed : “ Shoo! you has bin swindled! What does niggers want ofdat stuff? Niggers nebber hab freckles ! ” “ It's fur my wife,” explained the man. “Your wife han’t got freckles—she's black as tar.” “Well, you can’t tell what'll happen,” was the response. “Fust, dar was de mancerfa shun ; den cums de freedman bizness ; den de Civil Rights bill; and who kin tell dat de next thing won’t be white niggers wid heaps of freckles all over der faces! ” His line of reasoning was too heavy for them.— Vicksburg Herald. “ What shall we do,” said Mrs. Partington, “if this astonishingtrepidity in the increase of f population extinues.

The following, taken from the Elberton Gazette of the 23d ult., may not be uninter esting to many of our readers : The District Meeting. —At the District Meeting held at Hartwell last year, it was understood that Clarkesville, Habersham county, would be the place for the one to come off during the present year, and up to a recent date the determination of the meet ing at Hartwell was unrevoked. We learn, however, that for good reasons the place of Convention has been changed from Clarkes ville to Toecoa City. We think the last named town much more desirable than the first for the assemblage, as they are largely attended, and Toccoa City is so situated as to be very accessible both by rail and private conveyance, and then the accommodations at this town are much better than at Clarkes ville, and consequently visitors can, without trouble, fmd places to stop while attending the meeting. It convenes on Wednesday be fore the 3d Sabbath in August, according to adjournment. Tribute of Respect.
