Zv CONSCIENCE AND FUTURE
™ JUDGMENT.
1 «at alone with iny conscience,
In a place where time had ceased,
And we talked of my former living
In the land where the years increased.
And felt I should have to answer
The question it put to me,
And to face the answer and question
Throughout an eternity.
The ghosts of forgotten actions
Came floating before my sight.
And things that I thought were dead things
Where alive with a terrible might,
And the vision of all my past life
Was an awful thing to face,
Alone with my conifelenc* sitting
In that solemnly silent place.
And I thought of a far-away warning,
Os a sorrow that was to be mine,
In a land that then was the future,
Hut now was (he present time.
And I thought of my former thinking
Os the judgment day to be,
But sitting alone with my conscience
Seemed judgment enough for me.
And I wondered if there was a future
To this land beyond the grave ;
But no one gave me an answer,
And no one came to save.
Then 1 felt that the future was present,
And the present would never go by,
/'irit nvis hut the thought of my past lift)
Crown into eternity.
Thm 1 woke front my timely dreaming,
And the vision passed away,
And l knew the far away warning
Was a warning of yesterday.
And 1 pray that 1 may not forget it,
In this land before the grave ;
That 1 may not cry in the future,
And no one come to save.
And so 1 have louviit a lessor!
Which 1 ought to have known before.
And which though 1 learnt it dreaming,
I hope to forget no more.
Ho 1 sit alone 1 with my conscience
In the place where the years increase,
Ami 1 try to remember the future
In the land where time will cease.
And 1 know of a future judgment,
How dreadful soe'er it bo.
That to sit alone with my conscience
Will be judgment enough for me.

Greeley’s Acceptance of the Baltimore
Nomination.
New York, July 18,1872.
Gentlemen : Upon mature deliberation it seems
fit that I should give your letter of the 10th inst..
some further and fuller response than the
hasty, unpremeditated words in which I ac
knowledged and accepted your nomination at our
meeting on the 12th. T hat your convention saw
ht to accord its highest honor to one who had been
prominently, pointedly, opposed to your party in
the earnest and angry controversies of the last for
ty years, and essentially noteworthy that many of
you originally preferred that the Liberal Republi
cans should present another candidate for Presi
dent, and would more readily have united with ua
in the support of Adams or Trumbull, Davis or
Drown. It is well known that I owe my adoption !
at Baltimore wholly to the fact that I had already j
been nominated at Cincinnati, and that a concen
tration of forces upon any new ticket had been
pfoved impracticable. Gratified as lam at your
concurrence in the Cincinnati nominations; certain
as I am that you would not have thus concurred
had you not deemed me upright and capable, I
find nothing in the circiimstanfcea calculated to
imflame vanity or nourish self-conceit. But that
your convention saw fit in adopting the Cincinnati
ticket te reaffirm the Cincinnati platform is to m«
a source of the proudest satisfaction. That body
was constrained to take this important step by no
party necessity, realtor supposed. It might hate
accepted the candidates of the Liberal Republicans
upon grounds entirely its own, or it might have
presented them as the first Whig National Conven
tion did Harrison and Tyler, without adopting any
platform whatever. That it chose to plant itself
deliberately, by a vote nearly unanimous, upon the
fullest and clearest enunciation of the principles
which are at once incontestibly Republican
and emphatically Democratic, gives trustworthy
assurance that anew and more aaspicious era is
dawning upon our long distracted country. Some
of the best years and best efforts of my life were
devoted to a struggle against chattle slavery, a
struggle none the less earnest or arduous because
respect for constitutional obligations constrained
me to act for the most part on the defensive at a
distance. Throughout most of those years my
vision was cheered, my exertions were rarely ani
mated by even so much as a hope that I should
live to see my country peopled by freemen alone.
The affirmance by your convention of the Cincinnati
l Tat form is a most conclusive proof that its spirit
is extinct ; that despite the protests of a respect
able but insolated few. there remains among us no
party and no formidable interest which regrets the
overthrow or desires the establishment of human
bondage whether in letter or in spirit. T am there
fore justified in my hope and trust, that the first
century of American Independence will not close
before the grand elemental truth on which its
rightfulness was based by Jefferson and the con
tinental Congress of 7fi will no longer be regarded
as glittering generalities, but will have become the
universally accepted and honored foundation of
our political fabric. 1 demand the prompt appli
cation of those principles to our existing condition.
Having done what 1 could for the complete eman
cipation of the blacks, 1 now insist on the full
enfranchisement of all my white countrymen. Let
no one say the bar has just been removed from all
but a few hundred elderly gentlemen, to whom
eligibility to olliee can be of little consequence.
My view contemplates not the hundred proscribed,
but the millions who arc denied tne right to be ruled j
and represented by men of their uttered choice, j
Proscription were absurd if these did not wish to
elect the very men whom they are forbidden to
choose. 1 have a profound regard for the people
of that New England wherein I was born, in whose
common schools I was taught. 1 rank no other
people above thenl in intelligence, capacity and
iiioral worth. But w hile they do many things
well and so admirably, there is one thing which I
am sure they can't do wisely or safely, and that is the
selection for States remote from and unlike their
own of the person by whom those States shall be
represented in Congress. If they could do this to
good purpose, then republican institutions were
unfit and aristocracy the only true political sys
tem. Yet what have we recently witnessed ? Z.
B. Yance. the unquestioned choice of a large
Majority of the present Legislature of North Ca
rolina, a majority backed by a majority of the
people who voted at his election, refused his seat
in the Federal Senate to which he was fairly
chosen and the Legislature thus constrained to
choose another in his stead, another who in our
late contest was like Vance, a rebel and a fighting
rebel, but who had not served in Congress before
the war as Vance hdd, thaugh the latter remained
faithful to the Union until after the close of his
term. I protest against the disfranchisement Os a
State, presumptively of a number of States, on
grounds so narrow and technical as this. The fact
that the Same Senate which refused Vince his seat
proceeded to remove the disabilities after that seat
had been filled by another, only serves to place in the
strongest light the indignity to North Carolina
aud the arbitrary, capricius tyranny which dic
tated it. I thank you gentlemen that my name
is to be conspicuously associated with yours in a
determined effort to render amnesty complete and
universal in spirit as well as in letter. A defeat
in such a cause would leave no sting, while a tri
umph would rank it with those victories which no
blood reddens, and wich enveke no tears but those
of gratitude and joy. Gentlemen vonr platform,
which is also mine, assures me that Democracy is
not henceforth to stand for one thing aud Repub
' licanism for another, but that those terms are to
mean in politics as they have always meant m the
i dictionary, substan daily one aud the same thing’
' namely; equal rights, regardless of creed, or clime.
BAINBRIDGE GA-, AUGUST 3rd, 1872*
or color. I hail this as a genuine new departure
from outworn feuds and meaningless contentions
in the direction of progress and reform. Whether
I shall be found worthy to bear the standard of the
great liberal movement which American people
have inaugurated, is to be determined- 1 - now by
deeds. With me, if I steadily advance—over me,
if 1 falter—this grand army moves to achieve for
her glorious, beneficent destiny.
1 remain, gentleman, yours,

Commercial Manures.
Prof. W. Leßoy Broun, of the State Ag
ricultural College, has prepared a bill to
be presented to the Legislature to prevent
fraud in the sale of commercial fertilizers.
According to the synopsis which we find
in the Columbus Sun, the bill provides for
a State Chemist, who must analyze all
manures, and, on application, furnish plant
ers with it. Companies must pay fifty dol
lars for hiC certificate. He can charge a
purchaser ten dollars. Ha shall furnish
to the State Agricultural Society, each
mouth, a statement of all analysis made by
him. No commercial manure oan be sold
without his having analysed it, and without
having printed on every barrel, bag, or
paroel, which may contain fifty pounds, the
name and place of the seller, and the pet
centage it contains of soluble phosphoric
acid, or insoluble phosphoric acid, of pot
ash or of ammonia. Violators of the law
are punished by heavy fines j in some cases
the seller is required to return the money
to the buyer. The fines go the State Ag
ricultural Society, the Secretary of which,
at his discretion, may publish the analysis
made monthly. The certificate of State
Chemist shall be regarded as evidence in
court of the valUo of the fertilizer.
The sample selected by the planter or
purchase for analysis shall be a fair aver
age sample. It shall be taken in the pre
sence of two witnesses from the bag, barrel
or parcel containing the commercial man
ure, and shall be sealed in the presence of
said witnesses; and signed by them across
the seal, but the trade-mark, or name by
which the commercial manure is know
shall not bo furnished to the State Chemist
until after the analysis is made. By the
soluble phosphoric acid is meant Anhyd
rous phosphoric acid in any form or com
bination that has been rendered in the
manufacture readily soluble in pure Avater
of 70 degrees Farenhoit; and by insoluble
phosphoric acids in any combination Avhich
requires the action of acid upon it to cause
the same to be readily soluble in xvater ;
and by ammonia which shall correctly re
present all the available nitrogen in the
commercial manure. Act to take effect

White Africans, Etc.
The Herald of Monday, contains letters i
from its African explorer, Stanley, giving !
his story ot the meeting with Dr. Living- j
stone, and the latter’s accounts of his ex- !
plorations, say that the Chambizi is the j
head waters of the Nile. The story Avhieli
the Doctor tells of two countries through
which the great river runs, reads like a fa
ble. He tells of ivory being so cheap and
plentiful as to be used for door-posts ; of
the skillful manufacture of fine grass cloth,
rivaling that of India ; of a people nearly
white and extremely handsome, whom he
supposes to be the descendants of the an
cient Egyptians ; of copper mines at Ka
tortg which have been Avorked for ages,
and of docile and friendly people.
Dr. Livingstone and Stanley explored
the head of Lake Tanganyika, and return
ed to Ujiji, where they spent
1871. Stanley says that he found Living
stone in a very destitute condition, robbed
and despoiled by his men. He looks to
be about fifty, quite hale and hearty. In
March, 1872, he began to organize ftn ex
pedition to explore a few doubtful joints,
which he thinks will take about 18 months,
when he will return to England,
The Philadelphia Press says the coun
try owes Gen. Grant a debt that can never
be paid. Grant is evidently of the same
opinion, but he is doing his best to make
his collections. Like the accommodating
country traders who advertise to sell their
goods, cheap for cash or produce, Grant is
willing to take anything in the way of pay
ment which comes to his hand, from a bull
pup to a cottage by the sea. When his
term of office expires, he will have one
thought to console him. If the country
j then owes him anything, it will not be be
! cause he has neglected any means in his
power to enforce a settlement in full. —A.

FOR THE RIGHT—JUSTICE TO ALL.
What Henry Wilson thinks about For
eigners.
If there is a foreigner throughout the
length and breadth of the State, who for
j one single moment entertains a remote
idea of supporting the Grant and Wilson
ticket, we would advise him to read the fol
lowing extract taken from a speech deliv
ered Massachusetts, by Henry Wilson,
candidate for Vice President :
“In the heart of the foreigner beats not
a single noble impulse, not one single throb
of patriotism ! He is so brutal and degra
ded that he has no sympathy for anything
but cabbage and lager beer, potatoes and
buttermilk, or some other outlandish dish,
fit only for hogs of the street of pen. All
the oaths in the world cannot bind them,
Some tell me that many foreigners are
intelligent ; yes, intelligent! How in the
name of Almighty God can they say it ?
Look at the Dutchman smoking his pipe,
and if you see a ray of intelligence in that
dirty, idiotic face of his, show it me.
We must change the laws of the land
find prevent these ignorant, degraded pau
pers her# from and holding office.
They are a set of unprincipled villians and
ruffians who congregate in and around our
cities and large villages and live by steal
ing and begging from the Americans.—
They have the right to live unde* our laws,
and till the soil, and do as we bid ! They
are inferior in intellect and intelligence to
the American, and fnUSt be put down and
kept down, if it has to be done at the point
of the bayonet and with powder and lead.
Again : You see a wide mouthed, lop
eared, mullet-headed German, coming up
just from some hut in the land of kraut,
with the foam of beer still sticking in his
horse tail whiskers, and his breath smell
ing of garlic and onions, enough to kill a
white man three hundred yards, and before
ibe can speak a word of the English lan
! guage but ‘ Dimikrat ’ he must vote and
that vote counts as much as yours or mine.
This is outrageous and abominable). These
foreigners, ay ho have carried the elections
for.the -Old Liners will have to learn their
placteft. They have no more right to vote
than the brutes of the field, and God knows
that I Avould tell these paupers, vagabonds,
these vile, filthy, idiotic, degraded foreign
ers I don’t want your votes and if ever I
am a candidate I hope I will not get them.
The following are extracts from the
Know-Nothing speeches of Henry Wilson,
nee Jeremiah Colbaith; in Massachusetts,
in 1854 :
“The time has come when the uniform
of the State militia should no longer be
disgraced by being seen on the back of a
Catholic Irishman or an Infidel Dutchman.”
“By the light of these burning shanties,
the Teuton and Celt may read the doom
! that will overtake them, in the attempt to
; compete Avith the native born American for
; political supremacy on this continent.”
| What do our Irish and German fellow
i citizens think of these utterances of the
; Grant candidate for Vice President ?
Every Sunday-school pupil has read of
the funeral piles in India, on Avhich widows
sacrifice themselves after their husbands
die. The English newspapers give an ac
count of a similar instance of sacrifice, on
the part of a widow in England. A wealthy
merchant who lived in Brighton, during
one of his mercantile expeditions abroad had
met Avitli a beautiful Malabar woman. He
married her in the presence of the English
Consul. He brought his wife home to
England, where she lived happily. She re
fused to listen to the teachings of Christi
anity, however, but clung tenaciously to
the beliefs which she had acquired in her
native land; and had a little temple built
on her husband’s estate in the country,
where she daily offered up her devotions
according to the rites of her own faith.
At length the husband died. The widoAV
threw herself upon his lifeless form in an
agony of despair, tore her hair, and disfig
ured her beautiful features with her nails.
Oh the evening after the funeral she disap
peared. After three days’ unsuccessful
search for her, it occurred to somebody to
look in the temple where she Was accus
tomed to perform her devotidns, and there
they found; in a pile Os ashes, yet smoking—
the remains of the devoted woman; All
alone, by herself, she had built the funeral
pyre, and unseen by mortal eye she had im
molated herself thereon in obedience to the
severe requirements of the religion in Which
she had been reared. —A r . Y. Sun!
It takes money to run a newspaper as
well as any other business, and no paper

Sheep and Wool Growing.
V e have jpst made a visit to Spring
Bank, the residence of Rev. C. W. Howard,
near where we were shown by
that gentleman a field of corn, on upland
of medium grade, which in point of yield
will, we feel assured, compare most favor
ably with any crops now growing on the
best of our Chickamauga valley lands.
This very gratifying result has been at
tained by a process entirely practical, and
remunerative rather than expensive. The
ground Avas prepared in the ordinary way
last season and sown in turnips, which
were f*d to sheep —they being confined bv
means of a portable fence to such a strip
as the roots were eaten from in forty-eight
hours. Mr. H. folded one hundred sheep
upon an area of from thirty to forty feet
Square, and then removed the fence to a
fresh spot, until the entire crop had been
consumed. To the fertilization thereby se
ctored is Mr. ifoAvarct indebted for the corn
in question, which may be safely reckoned
as promising from nine to twelve barrels,
of five bushels each, per acre. In the ab
sence of such treatment, twenty bushels
would have been a maximum average yield
from the field. Another signal consequence
of tile mode adopted, was the Very thorough
cleansing by the sheep of all weeds and
shrubs. We do believe that a personal
examination of this test would lead every
farmer who could procure sheep to do like
wise, and wish the occasion would bo avail
ed of by a committee from our county and
a report thereof!— Catoosa Courier,
On the 22d of June, twelve thousand
poupds of Georgia wool were sold in Bos
ton at sixty-two cents a pound. If a pound
of wool cato be grown as easily as one of
cotton in Georgia, (as Mr. Howard aud
others believe) cotton culture should rest
awhile, till sheep husbandry fertilizes the
soil up to an average of one bale of cotton
to the acre. Then there will be good sense
in raising cotton so far as it can be done
without injury to the plantation, and at a
good price for the staple. Nothing is easier
than to raise grass and wool in the South,
if the people say it shall be done.
W oiiid Your Loss Be Felt.
Live for some purpose in the ■world. Always
act your part well. Fill up the measure of duty
to others. Conduct yourselves so that you may
be missed with sorrow when you are gone. Mul
titudes of our species are living in such a selfish
manner that they are not likely to be remembered
after their disappearance. They leave behind
them scarcely any traces of their existence, and are
forgotten almost as though they had never been.
They are, whila they live, like some pebble lying
unobserved among a million on the shore ; and
when they die they are like that same pebble
thrown into the sea, which just ruffles the surface,
sinks, and is forgotten without being missed from
the beach. They are neithef regretted by the
rich, moiirned by the poor, nor celebrated by the
learned. Who has been better for their life ?
Who has been the worse for their death ? Whose
tears have they dried ? Whose wants supplied ?
Whose misery have they healed? Who would
unbar the gate of life to readmit them to exist
ence ? Or Avhat face would greet them back to
our Avorld with a smile? Wretched, unproduc
tive existence! Selfishness is its curse; it is a
starving vice. The man who does no good gets
none. He is like the heath in the desert, neither
yielding fruit nor seeing when good cometh —a
stunted, fish-draw, miserable shrub.
Wait.
Wait husband, before you wonder au
dibly why your wife don’t get along with
the house-hold responsibilities “as your
mother did.” She is doing her best—and
no woman can endure the best to be slight
ed. Remember the long weary nights she
sat up with the little babe that died ; re
member the love and care she bestowed
upon you when ydu had that long fit of
illness. Do you think she is made of cast
iron? Wait—wait in silence and forbear
ance and the light will come back to her
eyes—the old light of the old days.
Wait, wife, before you speak reproach
frilly to your husband when he comes home
late, weary, and “out of sort.,” —-He has
worked hard for you all day—perhaps far
into the night; he has wrestled hand in
hand with Care, and selfishness, afad greed
and all the demons that follow in the train
of monney-making.—Let home be aflbther
atmosphere entirely: Let him feel that
there is One place in the world where he
can find peace, and quiet and perfect love,

Cotton spinning and cloth making, on a
larger and more profitable scale, does not
seem to bo all that Mr. >V. H. Young, of
Columbus, devotes his attention to. He
has lately been demonstrating what he
knows about raising oats, as we ff&rn from
the Columbus Sun, of Wednesday ;
Splendid Yield of Oats.— ln conversa
tion with Mr. Wm. H. Young, he stated
that he had raised on five acres of land*
measured by a practical surveyor* 276 2-3
bushels of clean fanned oats, weighing
8,822 pounds, or say 55 14 37 bushels, of
32 pounds each, to the acre. On the land
were employed fifty bushels of cotton seed
and one hundred pounds of Peruvian guano*
costing, We would suppose, abot sl4 to the
acre. The oats will bring $1.25 per bushel.
This will realize a net gain of about $55
per acres The straAV will pay for the labor.-
There was no perceptible difference in the
whole field. The five acres were merely
surveyed in a body to contend for the Fair 1
premium. He further said he tamed at
his Bealwood place, the Character of the
soil being known as old Avom-out fields and
poor sandy land, on nearly sixty acres
64,919 pounds of perfectly clean fanned
oats—all weighed and the Weight of bags
deducted —which, at 39 pounds to the bush
el, amount to 2’028 2-9 bushels, Ove*
fifty bushels to the acrC: On this latid he
employed one hundred pounds of Peruvian
guano to the acre:
