Whether eMS'dn^ afford to take the risk of less from tUi: esource, depends upon what, in each case, is the cost of raising hogs, and their value when ready for market—' as the cost and value approach eaob oth er, the smaller the risk that is justified. In thickly settled neighborhoods, we very seriously doubt whether it pays to keep the hogs running at large, half starved the greater portion of the year, against James Monroe, but without the > ANOTHER CIVIL WAR THREAT ENED - [From the New York Sun.] M r. George S. Boutwell, lately Grant’s 1 Secretary of the Treasury, and now a 1 Senator fro 1. Massachusetts, in the coarse of a debate in the Senate the other day used the following language : "No, sir ; if the people of this coun try fail to do their duty the government is lost. If they fail to overthrow the r Democratic party by a vote so over whelming that there can be no excuse for bribery, for falsehood, for doable returns, this country a year from this will be involved in another civil_wir- Nothing but an overwhelming vote ef the people, from which there can be no appeal by traitors, will save us from civil war**-, - What does this mean ? What can be the purpose of such a threat ? Who is to begin the oivil war which Mr. Bunt- well announces ? Is it the Belknaps, the Robesons, the Baococks. the Shep herds, wbo will set on foot this method of retaining power after they have been beaten in the election ? Have they au thorized Mr. Boutwell to speak iu this manner, and is he their mouthpiece ? •Are the people of the United States not to be free to choose in accordance with the constitution, in the election of next November, such candidates as the majority of them may approve? Or must they take men who will be satis factory to Grant, Belknap, Robeson, Babcock and Boutwell, under penalty of a new civil war ? What else can be the signification of Mr. Boutwell’s menace ? If the Dem ocratic party is not voted down by an overwhelming majority in November, he tells us, this country a year from this will be involved in another civil war. Will the Democratic party make this civil war ? Not at all, for, as he tel's us, the oivil war will follow the snccess of that party, and a successful party can have no occasion to appeal to arms. It is the unsuccessful, the de feated party, which can alone expect or desire to gain anything by such an ap peal. This threatened oivil ,war, then, will be made by the defeated Republi cans, and be made simply because they are defeated. This is the whole sense and the only sense of Mr. Buutwell’s declaration. He requires the people to let the candidates of the Republican party be elected in November, or a civil war will he commenced in March next, immediately after the inauguration of a Democratic President. Such is the programme put forth by one oT the most conspicuous supporters of Grant and Grantism, and of the whole indescribable system of fraud, corruption, and public plunder which Grant and hia followers have fastened upon the country. For these revolting features which the Government of the United States displays at the present time, Mr. Boutwell is, according to the measure of his ability, as much respon sible as any other man. He has been in the administration, and be left it to become a member of the Senate. From < the first be has done nothing but aid, i abet, applaud and justify the enormi ties that now surround os. But his i threat of a new civil war is foolislf and contemptible. The people will not be I frightened by it.

And yet, nil through this eventful epoch in the history of the nation, tew York has been in every particular, the foremost State in the Union, and, at nearly every Presidential election, her tote has decided the contest. The italics arc mine, and will serve to call the readers attention more emphatic ally to the fact that New York has, for a half ccntnry, had the casting and decisive vote in every presidential election. -In view of these facts, it would be well for the St. Louis convention, while selecting a man of pure and inapproachable per sonal character (and none other can be elected, in the present temper of the peo ple,) to see to it that he can carry the Em pire State. The South will be solid for any good candidate, and the very fact of securing New York will send such dis may through thejranksj of the enemy, as will render victory comparatively easy of achievement. Bainbridge, Ga., Apri 20, 1876. THE GEORGIA PRESS ASSOCIA TION: The annual meeting of the Georgia Press Convention will be held in Savan nah on WEDNESDAY, May 10th, at 12 o’clock M. J. H. ESTILL, President. IL II. Cabaniss, Rec. Sec’ty. the revenue -it. It is papers on ■Aeiabject in advance of final action. ■ At the proper time the facts can be Ifsd/iilly and properly stated. At | j—-cot it is proper to say that the peo- I-; *h mid give no credence to such as ‘Carlos.’ The memorial of ■k Feltou and myself, as the represen- fcrlve districts, had long before been I- - nted, backed up by letters and Istmoriala from our constituents, and ru being favorably considered when fre telegraphic memorial signed by r arsclf and others arrived. Your me- t rial was endorsed by every member ithe Georgia delegation in his seat s the time and immediately presented :;aieto the president and, at the ycfiJunt's request, to the attorney paeral in the name of the entire dele- f.ti"n. We were in accord then aud* i-e now. At least I so believed, and tsJcrstood. At one time I thought litre was unkind and unreasonable op- jtn’tion from some of the revenue offi cers. • 1 now begin to see there was eolr a misunderstanding between us tad them, and I still have hope we shall vTi have peace and amnesty all round. 1 tVl it uiy duty to do the heavy work htjase uiy constituents are more in- v,iked than all others combined, and I in verv sure I aui not small enough to cliiui any political credit for what I tare done >*r may have d me or may do ia this w >rk of kindness and clemency. Th» pre->id nit has sp iken kiad ! y all v.eliuie. .o.id I believe wit jii lie fully S'tsthe facts will act with cheerfulness.” —Atlanta ('oust it at ion. in propria persona-, as, strictly spiAtag, he was required to do so. He could, Tiad he so wished, have appeared by counsel, which would have been entirely satisfac tory to the Senate sitting as a High Court of Impeachment; but he was advised by his lawyers to put on a bold front, and by his presence, endeavor to impress the court with the fact that he was not afraid to confront either it or his accusers. It be confessed that he went through the or deal remarkably well. It is almost need less to say that he was the cynosure of the Senators who sat as the judges in his case, of the members of the House who occu pied seats on the floor, of the “lynx-eyed” reporters, and of the thousands who thronged the galleries; and, that through out the entire proceedings, he maintained a calm demeanor scarcely to be expected under the circumstances. A portly, fine- looking fellow of forty-six or forty-seven, of the pure Saxon type, with blue eyes and long blonde beard, he sat between Jeremiah S. Black and Montgomery Blair, two of his counsel, holding in one hand a pair of lemon-colored kids, apparently as unconcerned as the Ethiopians who slnmbered peacefully in the gallery. EX-SENATOR MATT. H. CARPENTER is the senior counsel in the case, and will probably take a leading part in the trial. Self-possessed, and amiable in manner, Capenter, with his conceded ability, has an easy, swaggering air about him which endears him to the “b’hoys,” who are ready to shout, “Hi! Hi!” whenever a witticism drops from his lips. Somehow or another, the people of Wisconsin saw lit to drop the Honorable Matt, from their list of favorites, and he returns to his pro fession to defend Treasury thieves like Ottman, safe burglars like Harrington and Babcock, caput-bag. .Senators like Spencer, and vendors of post-tradersliips like B-iknap. The Honorable Matt, has always strenuously insisted that no United States Senator can live on his salary. l J 0!.-si!;!y not, if Senators will keep paee with the ex-Senator from Wisconsin in his lavish expenditures. Said he, during the Speucer in vest ig itioti—“Gentlemen of the Committee, 1 object to that question. If General Spencer did borrow money, it was no crime. You know, gentleman, us well as 1, ill,it after a man has been in the United States Senate three or four years, tfe must necessarily be poor; and, certain ly none of you will say that poverty is a crime.” Querry: If serving in the Senate is such an impoverishing process, why are there so many aspirants for seats in that body who are willing to spend thousands of dollars to secure the object of their am bition? A prize chromo, valued at twen ty-five cents, will be awarded to the per son who will solve that conundrum. THE CHIEF IMPEACHMENT MANAGER. Having referred to the counsel for Belk nap, let us take a look at the Chairman of the impeachment managers on the part of the House of Representatives, Hon. Scott Lord, representative delectation this evening. Mr. S. during his connection with this office and his residence here, has so conducted himself as to gain the esteem of all our citizens— AMONG OUR NEIGHBORS. A correspondent writes to ask “when Whiteley was a detective ?” We suppose he refers to Maj. R. H. Whiteley, of this city, who lias never been a detective, but whose name probably has been confound ed with that of the fellow who worked up the monstrous conspiracy against the Columbus prisoners in 1808. To the further question of “where Whiteley is, and what he is doing ?” we will say, It. H. Wliitely is in this city practicing law, and, so far as we know, is out of politics. If it is possible for us to borrow an um brella we intend to go to the Press Con vention in Savannah. Make room for us, but we prefer that no demonstration be made. Suppose we get up some more talk about the P. G. in G. She’s an old woman now, and has thirteen children, but will do to talk about all the same. Triplett said something the other day about the approaching Floral Fair at Thomasville, and, by some strange and unaccountable oversight, forgot to men tion that the “latch string hung on the outside” of his oftice. Henry McIntosh has laid in a supply of cough lozengers. He evidently means ’business at the Press Convention. Henry don't look so big, long and ugly for notli- the young ladies included. Long may he wave ! Americus has a minstrel troupe orga nizing for the road. Fort Gaines is goin; to play base ball. Cuthbert is complaining that her water works do not work well. “H. H. J.,” of the Macon Telegraph, in sists that the office of governor “is held at a great pecuniary loss to the incum bent. Thus, from excel .eat authority, I learn that it has cost Gov. Smith seven thousand dollars to keep up the executive establishment, even with a small house hold."

Bat with proper and specific arrangements therefor, a farmer ean and ought to raise his bacon. . The first item » to procure a quick-maturing breed, and one that fattens readily. It does not pay to keep a hog two years; ht oaght to be ready for the knifs when from ten to twelve months old. In the next place, the fewer the number ot hogs that can be mado to yield the amount of pork requited, the better. In other words, the intensive is better than the extensive here, as well os elsewhere on the farm. In the next place it should not be forgotten that, except on farms pecu liarly fitted for raising corn (with» large quantity of bottom land), it does not pay to raise pork oa corn. The best calculators consider that, when corn is worth 70 cents a bushel, pork fed on it will cost from 8 to 9 cents, or baoon from 12 to 13 cents per pound. How can pork bo made without eorn ? We answer, by devoting a part of the farm specifically to this purpose, so that only a little good, tight fencing will have to be kept up- In this enolosure a part should be sown to rye and oats for win ter and spring grazing. To these may be added some California and crimson clover, where red clover will not grow; another planted in early peas, another in oats to ripen, another in sweet pota toes, another in goobers, and another in chufas. Fruit trees', wild and cultivated, should be planted in the hog field- plums, wild cherry, peaches, apples, blackberries, persimmons end mulber ries, These fruit trees could be plant ed in the poorest spots—the graxing spots alone need be very rich. A suc cession of food can th us be secured, fin ishing off with sweet potatoes and cho rus—the latter it is claimed, making as white and as firm as corn itself, A very great advantage of this plan ia, that the hog is kept always under the owner’s eye. But enough has been said to convey our ides, and we pass on. Peas after oats intended to benefit the la-d. This benefit is worth more to ’.be farmer than are all of the gleanings by the hogs. One of the greatest evils of our farming system has been that of trying to get everything possible oat of the land, and giving it no chance what ever ; too little specie in the vault, and too many bank notes in circulation.— American Scotch Journal. over to Cuthbert (From the Alexandria (Va) Gazette ) The oration of Ben Hill, the great states man from Georgia, in response to Mr. Blaine, who advocated the exclusion of Jefferson Davis from amnesty, was an able and elo quent defense of the “chieftain of the lost cause,’’ which elicited a feeling of gratitude frojn every Southern heart; and a local poet, though not presuming to effect poetical ex cellence, chooses to express that gratitude in the following words : From the field of Appomatox, from Manas sas’ bloody plain, From the lips of those now living, from the lips of those who’re slain, From the widows and the orphans, from the children yet unborn, From the ruined homes and places of a peo ple most forlorn, There swells a voice of gratitude no strife nor storm can still, A rousing shout of thanks to thee, great, glorious Ben Hill.

Wc have no idea Oupt Triplett would accept, though he would undoubtedly make a strong race if he would allow his friends to press his claims. The followiug advice comes from one of the oldest and most experienced far mers in Georgia, Mr. J. Ceres Harris, of the Savannah News: “If we mistake not, this is the proper season of the year to plant cotton,.and the more you plant the more you will make. This will have a tendency to lower the price of cotton stuffs, and if there is anything the poorer classes need it is cheap clothes. Thus every farmer has it in bis power to aid the poor.” We find this unparalled piece of wit in the Savannah News We have embalmed it- “A subscriber writes to say that he doesn’t know whether we are friendly or unfriendly to Mr. Hill. Well, we can say this much confidentially, that but for the clarion voice and eagle eye of R. Mel ville. J., of the Bainbridge Democrat, we would long ago have stabbed Mr. Hill with a boiled potato or a peeled horse radish. or something of that kind.” The building of the Thomasville Li brary Association and Museum is very nearly completed and presents quite a handsome appearance. The Thomasville Enterprise is forever telling some truth. Listen to it now: Some of our exchanges seem to have discovered a good many more good points about Governor Smith since he has positively declined to be a candidate again, than thev could see bcfdre. Most all of them can now say something in his favor even those that seemed most anxious to decry him before. Savannah News' Editors who desire to attend the May meeting of the Georgia Press Association, and who have to travel over any of the lines of tlie Central Rail road, will be supplied with passes upon application to the Piesident of the Asso ciation.

Folks as editor, will be commenced next week. We would like to stop long enough to inquire if Kayton will be at the Press Convention ? The address of Col. Clark, will be an in teresting feature of the Press Re-union. The Albany News is getting lazy. It now takes from Thursday until Saturday to reach Bainbridge, Savannah News: “W’en you see a town nigger gwine rou"’ wid a string uv pullets try-in’ fer ter sell ’em.” said an eld coun try darkey to a crowd of his acquaintances in the Macon passenger depot the other day, “you jes’gcr right long’n him a saft place in de chain-gang, an’ te’l de calaboose keeper fer ter make room at de table fer a new boa’der. He gwine lan’ dar fo 1 de week’s done. Dey ain’t no merkils dese days fer ter keep him out. Thomasville Times: We are pained to chronicle a very serious accident to Mrs. Sarah Young, mother of Colonel Wm. J. Young of this place. It seems that she, in company with a little negro girl who accompanied her in a buggy, started to town Thursday morning from her place some three miles from town. The horse took fright and started to run, when both Mrs. Young and the negro girl were vio lently thrown from the vehicle. The g'ri was not hurt, but Mrs. Young struck on her head, producing a violent concussion but the physicians say no fracture. Medi cal aid was at once summoned, and th«* sufferer brought to the residence of Colo nel Young, where she now lies in an un conscious state. But little or no hope is entertained of her recovery. Cuthbert Messenger: We hear it report ed on our streets that some parties while out burning, came across a dead negro and a very large dead hog lying together in a low flat among some scrubby bushes, on Mr. Dixson’s plantation in thiscounty, and close by the negro was a rusty shot gun and an ear of corn. The negro is said to be very bodlv chawed up, so much so that he could not be recognized, but the hoe showed no sign of external inju- *ry. It is generally believed that the hogs have organized a Ru-Klux Klan to kill out those who are bent on stealing for a living, and that this poor old hog died from over exertion in the noble canse. The hogs are now said to go in drovdsand ; when you perchance find one a little, away from the herd, he has his bristles ; up and his teeth snapping, while the | angry salvai rolls from his mouth.

In politics he is a Democrat, and his neighbors speak well of him. The Savannah News seems inclined to consider the election of an United States senator in the place of Mr. Nor wood as a matter that is settled—that does not admit of nrgement—that is signed, sealed and delivered. It does not look just so up this way. The people of the State will be apt to pre fer the best man for the place, even if Miat man does not live in Savannah.
