the Darien Timber merchants are ever
ready and willing to aid and assist the
cutter by unlimited ndvances in cash
or supplies, .and again yon can buy
lands in that section of Georgia at
from 10 cents to $4 per acre, but the
average price is SI per acre only, it
being even money and easily calculated,
which assertion yon will perhaps lie more
fully understood when you have finish
ed my interesting article. Ou this land
you can almost invariably get two
marketable pieces of timber per acre,
and then the land is, though unbeliev-
cd by many—valuable for family pur
poses, the average yield per acre being,
(by the application of 200 lbs fertili
zers) of cotton in seed is from 800 to
1000 lbs per aero, (some as much 2500
lbs) which, when properly ginned into
lint will make from 250 to 350 lbs.
This section of Georgia is also well
adapted to the raising of corn, oats,
.rice, sugar owe and. potato^,, the two
latter of which grow to perfection.
OF THE WIRE GRASS.
This portion of the natural growth
is neither cut nor mown in any man
ner, it being worthless after maturity
—which is about the latter part of
August in each year, then until the
month of March it is untouched by al
most anything, only as stock remove
the same in order that they may cap
ture the tender herbs under it.
In Match, this grass is fired in many
parts, I might say throughout the en
tire country, and hums with great
rapidity, making lines of fire in al
most every direction as far as the eye
can -see, but, in April following the
grass in this country, begins its growth
again', making a scene, using the
words of the celebrated Gen. j in
the “ Horse Jordan” case “ one of the
lovliest scenes (country) that the hu
man eye ever beheld,” it Wing, at from
this season to the first days of June,
a land of sol'd' green, “ where ndik
and honey flows.” (A great country
for butter milk and butter. O, my!
how delightful it would be to have this
season in a country like this during a
“ life time,” for as for health this part
is surpassed by none, not even the
mountains.

TaiUlly Grocery and Bar lioom ! here to express myself as did an Irish
friend of mine when speaking of a cer
tain lady’s form—when he said that
ihr lowest, he \ Vas confident that she was a lady of
fine natural form, so I must say for
these people, that there as fine natural
intellect as any people on the globe,
but, owing to the fact that they have
never had any advantages of even au
English education, they are illiterate,
yet an honest and noble hearted people,
who live by the “sweat of their brow.”
THEIR HOUSES
are generally built of logs cut from tho
forests, and generally have but one
room, with a huge fire-p]ace, the chim
ney of which is dirt and stick, and
piany of the cracks, so to speak, of
these buildings are not eealed only by
thin boards nailed” on the outer edge.'
every planter seems to think “ that if
you want anything done right, do it
yourself.”
THE PROFESSIONALISTS.
There are but few lawyers—though
they make some money by their pro
fession, and hut very few physiesans,
who pretend to practice, and, as a gen
eral thing, they are in adverse circum
stances, the country being so distress
ingly healthy.
I can but say God bless the Wire
Grass and its people.

The Springfield Republican declares
that “ the sewing-machine ring has
pooled nearly half a million of dollars
to carry through a renewal of its pat
ents.” Unless there should be an
unexpected rise in the price of Con
gressmen, we should think that sum
will be amply sufficient for the pur
pose.

The Washington Chronicle say that
“ In the Crdit Mobilier investigation
there was more cry than wool.” Per
haps so; but if that investigation had
produced half as much wool as white

have declined at least two hundred per
cent, already.

THE PLANTERS
generally plant no more than 20 acres
Doing a Peddling Female.—We
had a visit from a book-peddling fe
male last week. She was alone in
this world and had no one to whom she
could turn for sympathy or assistance,
hence we should buy her book. She
was unmarried and had no manly
heart iu which she could pour her suf
ferings, therefore we ought to invest in
her book. She had received a liberal
education and could talk French like a
native; we could not in consequence
refuse to' pay two dollars for a book.
We had listened attentively, and here
broke in with, “What did you say?
We’re deaf.” She started in a loud
voice and went through with her rig
marole. When she. had finished we
went a got a roll of paper nnd mnde it
into a speaking trumpet, placed one
end iu our ear and told her to proceed.
She nearly burst a blood vessel in her
effort to make herself heard. She com
menced :
“I am all alonein this world.”
“It doesn’t make the slightest differ
ence to us though. Weare not alone; in
fact we are husband and a father. Al-
thia is uot leap year, bigamy is not al
lowed in this State. Weare n6t eligi
ble to proposals.”
Oh, what a fool this man is!” she
said iu a low tone; then at the top of
her voice, “I don’t wnn’t to marry you.
I want to sell a b-o-o-k!” This last
sentence was howled.
“We don’t want a cook,” we blandly
replied; “our wife does the cooking,
and she wouldn’t allow as good looking
a woman as you are to stay in the
house five minutes. She is -very jeal
ous.”
She looked at us in despair. Gath
ering her robes about her, giving us a
glance of contempt, and exclaiming,
“I do believe ifa three hundred pound
er was let off alongside that blamed old
the non-producing, wealthy hundreds
may live—it is robbing a thousand
farmers’ wives of their calico dresses
that the wife ofone bondholder may
array herself in silk; it is robbing the
poor farmer boy of comfortable cloth
ing that the son of the man of money
may dress in purple aud fine linen.
The sou of the farmer is just as dear to
him, just as much loved and of far
more service to the State than the son
of the bondholder.
In the days of Democratic-adininis-
tions it was the rule to enact laws that
would do the most’good to the greatest
number; in these days of Republican
misrule, it is the custom to make laws
for the benefit ofa favored few of llje
pets of the Administration, who are ex
empted from taxation and who grow
wealthy at the expense of the people—
richer as the people grow poorer!
Hard times !
How could we except anything else
but hard times. An aristocracy of
money is growing up in this country
tinder the fostering care of the Repub
lican party that will lie worse than any
thing ol its kind in Europe, if permit
ted to go on. Already the Federal
Government is completly in the power
of this aristocracy, and if its outrages
and enoroachraents are submitted to,
it will not stop until it has reduced the
people to servitude nnd tenantage. It
is possible to remedy these evils, and
avert the danger now—in a little while
it may be too late!
liis case forever, and lay dead in the
bed. His wife lay there with, him,
and two of the three children, and also j
another that first looked upon the
world almost at the instant the father
had closed his eyes upon it.
8©“ It is said that all the professions
are now represented in the Georgia
Penitentiary except Congressmen. The
State ought to import a few Credit
Mobilier Congressmen from New Eng
land and break down such a disgraceful
exception. *

The Nashville Repulican says it nearly
killed a couple of its'acrobats while in
that city, and while the slaughter was
going on inside the canvas, a pious
Christian on the outside was crushing
the skull of a fellow-mortal with a
brick-bat. At Louisville the tent-
pole fell and killed one and wounded
several others. Subsequently, while
its “grand pageaiit” was traversing the
streets of the of the same city, one of
the teams ran away, killing the driver,
also running over a small boy and kill
ing him, and dislocating the shoulder
of an old man. The-Republican ex
presses the pious hope that it won’t go
to Washington and kill an ex-Congress-
man, before he has had time to collect
the extra back pay be voted himselfa
the last session.

an area of about 27,000 square miles;
while Podolia, with an area of about
16,000 square smiles, is equally rich

much of their time to cattle raising. If
the story he true that the insurgents
are murdering their opponents, and
plundering and burning property in
all directions, it is evidently the out
cropping of that bitter hostility of a
conquered * to their despoilers,
which dong years of apparently
peaceful submission have failed to up
root. the eternal law that where
guilt is, sorrow shall answer it; and
