Editor J imes. —ln begfiniiing this communication, the question "hat shall I write ?" presents itself with a greater than ordina ry force. The Legislature has adjour ned. No longer are Trammell and Bacon with their in our midst. And what can be said of the action of the General Assembly that is not already known to your readers. They elected a good Uni ted States Senator and his credentials were presented to the senate yesterday, by 1 lis predecessor the lion. Joshua Hid They repealed tlie usury laws* a measure which is worth all their per diem and mileage, Many other g *od things were done by this august body, before it took its departure, but one very important duty was left un done. No provision, at least, 110 ad equate provision, was made for the payment of the debts of the State now due, and those that will fall due before the next session. It is hoped that our excellent Executive will be able to devise some means to meet the e m erge ncy 1 1 owev er. This is a big day in New Orleans and of course many of our notables are there, among the number General Gordon and his lady. Judge H ip kins returned to this city last evening and looks as though his Cuban trip had done him much good. Tom Glenn stopped to witness Manli Gras, but will he along in a day or two. Tom O’Neal, the young man who killed Anthony in Clayton county, and whose sentence of death was commu ted to imprisonment for life, by Gov ernor Smith, assaulted one of the Guards employed on the Georgia Western Rail Road on Saturday night intending, it seems, to kill the Guard and escape. He was shot and instant ly killed by the young man whom he assaulted. It is thought if he had run in place of fighting, he might have made good his escape. Avery sad end, which ought to prove a warn ing to our chivalrous youth. Hon. Robt. Trippe the new Su» preme Court Judge, although he had a hard fight to be confirmed in the Senate, will doubtless give general satisfaction. Such at least is the opinion of those who know him best. The morning dispatches from Wash ington state that the Radicals have whispered assassination to President Grant, and he will forego his Southern trip. The city authorities of Ma con and Atlanta had invited him to visit both cities. A little surprising that Macon should do anything of this kind, but Atlanta has been deci dedly progressive a long time. The smoke had hardly ceased to ascend from around the city near which Wal ker fell, and his blood with that of very many of his fellow patriots had scarcely dried in tlie ground, before the city council of Atlanta wanted a statue of tlie late lamented, Abraham Lincoln in the place. The stamps couldn’t be raised however among tlie “ God and morality party” North or South, and so we were spared that disgrace, even as it seems that|Grants, prudish tears would prevent this. Quarles the negro minister to Min orca is a son of Frank Quarles a col ored Baptist preacher here. lie was the only negro lawyer in Georgia and we ought to be thankful for his pros motion and removal, the latter especs ially. Scruggs the new minister to the United States of Columbia—a seventy five hundred dollar position deserved it at the hands of his party, lie was the Editor of the New Eta for a long time, the best Editor ever in Atlanta, except A St Clair Abrams and the most decent man in the Rad ical party South. The Heralds, spe cials from Washington this morning indicate that Georgia will get no more pap this whet. She did not g 0 for Grant you know. Trade is quiet—cotton has declined a little. Matters in tlie city dull an and dry— occasionly the tedium is relieved | by a run off on some of the railways and somebody is killed. Joe Dykes was the last victim. Whiskey—a nap on the Rail Road track—a passing train—mangled body and the eternal sleep. The health of our people gen erally is good. Measles are prevalent among children, most of whom recov er. Pardon this 1 ambling letter. J. A. A Written for the Times. Editor Times. —l want to say a few things, to the intelligent farmers of ot this country, about the use of Com mercial Fertilizers. I will make no apology, or explanation, but will go ritrht into the matter in hand. © Your cotton, corn, wheat, potatoes, tfccare made of Carbon, Totash, Soda, Lime, Ammonia, Thosphorus, Silicas and several other ingredients of less note. They are mixed in various proportions, to make the different plants, some need more lime, some more potash, some more of one thing CARROLLTON, GEORGIA. FRIDAY MORNING, MARCH 7, 1873. and some more of another. Now the soil furnishes soaie, and the air furn ishes some, and the manures furnish seme. The lands in this country, need ammonia, lime and phosphorus.— The commercial manures, furnish lime and phosphorus in the “dissolved bones and phosphates,” and ammonia and lime in the guanos, your ground must furnish all the other elements. Now then you raise a crop with guano, you can get all the ammonia, all the lime and perhaps roll the phos phorus, from the manure. It must get its potash, silica, and all its other elements, from the g>*< und,except what it gets from the air, you make a good crop, but in order to do it, the roots of the plant, have sucked up all the pot ash and soda, and silica, and whatever else it wanted, out of the soil, and left little there for anew crop Use the same manure on the same ground for several years, and you “kill your land,” because you exhaust it of ali that the manure does not furnish. If your land is not well broken up, and the seasons are bad, the crop “burns,” because the roots can’t get down into the ground, to get what the plant needs, to balance the ammo nia and phosphorus. The farmers in this country, are likely to ruin their lands, if they and nit do something to supply the'heavy drain, that it made on them, by the commercial fertilizers. What then, in is the thing to be done. Stable manure, piled up, during the winter, and hauled out in the Spring, lias every element in it, that the plant roots need, therefore is the best manure. If a pit be dug, in the lower part of the stable, and all the shucks, fodder, hay, etc., that falls on the ground, be raked into it, and trenches be dug from all the stalls, so that all the drainings ot the stall, may find there way into the pit, and then all the cleaning of the stables, and lots be put into it, you will have a compost, that contains all the “plant food,” in about the l ight proportion. That will strengthen your lands, every year, and you can put it on the same land, as much as you choose, audit will never “kill it.” Then plow deep so that the roots can get all they want, and your lauds a>e sale and crops sure, I like to have said, rain or 110 rain. But you may use the commercial fertilizers to advantage, if you wil plow deep, and never mind turning up the clay. Then in fall while the stub ble is still green, put in a big turning plow, and give back to the land, some of that potash and soda that the gua no stole from it. Turn in a big crop of peas, while the pods are full of green fruit. All that will furnish the land with a good supply of the plant food, that it had lost, and it will be able to stand some “ dissolved bone,” the next year, and a little land plaster, and some salt. I mention these things, to call the attention of the farmers, to the risk that they are running, and to suggest a remedy for the mischief, that might be done. The manures are all good, but the stable manure is the safest, and the cheapest. Carroll. Feb 24th 1873. Hyper-Uentihty We remember reading of three tin fortunate ladies who were entertain ed one summer day at the house of a country friend, and whose consequent sufferings were so remarkable that they will serve to point a little moral. These ladies were high toned, so to speak. They were so very genteel and so extremely proper in their mans tiers, that it society conferred degrees, they would have been Mistresses of Social Arts and Doetresses of Social Laws. So these three high toned ladies sat down to dinner in the house of their country friend, and there were peas on the table “ Peas,” wrote one of the immaculate trio, “such as we nev er see in town—fresh, green, plump, and lusious, and so delightfully hot and tempting 1 But as the forks had only two prongs, making it quite use less to tiw to eat peas with them, we were obliged to leave the delicious things on our plates. The family ate their peas with their knives, but of course we could not do that.” Now our opinion may be social he resev, but we certainly believe that a true lady would have eaten those peas with her knife. She would have done so simply because she would have known that the laws of true politeness made it imperative upon her to use her knife in such a case. But this genteel trio did not appear to under stand that politeness requires a greater attention to the feelings of others than to mere forms ; that what is very genteel in one place is often quite boorish in another, and that there is a hyper gentility and a plu propriety which is offensive to the nostrils of a true gentleman or lady. —Frank 11. Stockton , in “ Home and Society ,” Scribner s for March. Newspapers Their value is by no means appre ciated, but the rapidity with which people are waking up to their neces sity and usefulness is one of the sig nificaat signs of the times. Few fam ilies are now content with a single newspaper. The thirst for knowledge is not easily satiated, and books though useful—yea, absolutely necessary in their place, tail-to meet the demands ot youth or age. Tlie village news paber is eagerly sought, and its cons tents as eagerly devoured. Then comes the demand for county news, state news, national and foreign news. Next to the political comes the litera ry, and then the scientific journals. Lastly, and above all, come the moral and religions journals. This variety is demanded to satisfy the cravings of the active mind. Newspapers are also valuable to ma terial prosperity. They advertise ihe village, county or locality They spread before the reader a map on which may be traced character, design, progress If a stranger calls at a ho tel he first inquires for the village newspaper; if a blend comes from a distance, the very next thing after a family greeting, he inquires for your village or county newspaper, and you feel discomfited if you are unable to find a late copy, and confounded it if you are compelled to say you do not take it. Save Your Labor. Labor is money or its equivalent, and should be so considered on the farm as well as in the workshops. The farmer who performs his own work, needs to economise his force as much as though he was hiring. If an hour is lost, it should be counted at its value. When we say an hour lost, we mean by absence or idleness alone, but have reference to any occasion. If ten hours are consumed in perfor ming work which, with better tools could have been performed in nine, the hour is lost, provided that the extra expense ot tools did not exceed its value, and this should be considered solely by estimating the time at its full value. If you employ 10 laborers at $1 per day, to perform work, which two men at Si,so, and two mules at $1 each, would perform (and this we have of ten and continually seen,) one-half the expenditure is thrown away. In the South, especially, is the value of labor too carelessly estimated. We have heard hundreds of farmers ob ject to labor-saving machinery and tools, for the reason that they had the negroes employed any how, and they must keep them at work ; never con sidering that there is always work upon the plantation, which might re ceive attention if time could be found for it. The same planters are contin ually grumbling about the unreliabili ty of labor, when they could do much to control it, if they would invest a little more in machinery, and double the product of each hand, thereby ren dering themselves far more indepen dent by employing only half the num ber. Or, if one-helf or one-fourth the time could be saved, it might well be devoted to the collection of fertilizing or to other improvements, and we shall not see so many farms going to the bad, as we can see in all directions at the present time. Far mers need to use figures more. All application ot the few simple rules of arithmetic would “ make fanning pay ” where now there is loud com plaint of loss. —!♦> A Clown’s Sermom.— A friend sends us the following sermon, preach ed in Virginia by John Robinson’s clown. It is thus related by one who was present: It was in the evening, when the performance was about to close, the clown stepped forward and in a sol emn tone addressed the vast assm blage present, among which were hundreds of professing Christians of the different denominations, Metho dists, Baptists, Episcopalians and Presbyterians, in the following style. “My friends, we have taken m about six hundred dollars here to-day s more money, I venture to say, than any minister of tlie gospel in this country will receive for a years service. A large portion of this money was given bv church members ot the church. And yet, when your preach er asks you tor money to aid in sup* porting the gospel, you say you are too poor to give anything. Yet, you l come here and pay dollars to hear me | talk my nonsense I am a foql be | cause I am paid for it; I make my living by it. You profess to be wise and yet you support me in my folly. But perhaps you say you did not come to see the circus, but the ani mals. Ah, now this is all excuse.— If you came simply to see the animals why did you not look at them and leave 1 Why did you stay to hear my nonsense ? Now, is this not a pretty place for Christians to be in ? I.)o you not feel ashamed of yourselves. You ought to blush in sach a place as this ?” An earnest discourse was soon after wards preached in tlie neighborhood. A stirring appeal was made in favor of missions. The collection amount ed to four dollars ' and thirty-eight cents. Only think of it, six hundred dollars for the circus, and four dollars for the conversion of the world. OFFICE OF r I iie Confederate Monumental I Association of Georgia, v Augusta, Ga., Jan. 4th, 1873. j We are aware that a second post ponement of the distribution of the shares of the Confederate Monumental Association of Georgia will dissatisfy some of the ticket holders. Provi dence has inflicted, upon almost every section of our country, for the last month, the severest weather that has been known for many years The highways of travel in many sections have been stopped. Communication between neighborhoods has been in terrupted People have been compell ed to keep close at their homes. One Agent writes: “Die postponement was so short that owing to the bad weather it will be iiupossable for me to aid you as I expected. A Slate Agent in forms us that the contribution from his Slate will be cut down to a small amount by the inclement weather, and the shortness of time. One Agent stated to us in person that there were many who wished to subscribe that he had nut been able to see in con sequence of the extreme bitterness of the weather. Another Agent declined to act longer, as the time was too short to obtain the desired results in his State. We might quote from oth er letters to show that complaint has been made; that we sought to expedite the drawing by inadequate time. We frankly confess that we desired to close the effort we have been making. The object sought is a grateful one. We have been influenced to hold on by our desire to lionor the memory of personal relatives and friends, as well as their lost and devoted comrades. We use the occasion to add that we have in no small degree been influenc ed to continue our efforts to protect the credit of our State and section. We looked to a quenchless vestal fire, wihout which there can be no soul, no true greatness, no noble sentiment in communities or nations. \\ e are Agents to guard this great and most sacred enterprise. We ask the ticket holders to give us their con fidence. We ask them to rely upon our judgments for another brief period We know better than they do the ne cessity for a little more time. If any one shall say this additional postpone ment violates our pledges, all that we have to say is, the South is not yet so represented to appear creditably be fore the country and the world. When we honestly tell you that, will you not rather thank than condemn us for the delay. In addition to the difficulties already referred to, we may properly add that for weeks past the excitement of canvasses for county offices, some of which are lucrative, have directed attention from this effort to do a grate ful and patriotic work. These elec tions are over. These excitements are rapidly passing away. Our peo pie can now have time tor reflection. They will now move freely; come to the tombs of their martyrs, streethed on their shields in wakeless sleep, and make their offerings for perpetual re membrance. We trust no one will be dissatisfied* but that all will unite with us in saying that the sepulchral honors of the dead should not be marred by impatience or selfish considerations. Whether we look to the battle-field, or the new made grave, our heroes are wreathed with the honors'of dying patriots.— We now publicly pledge and solemnly aver that the distribution shall take place on the THIRD DxYY OF APRIL. i873. D. V. On that day the curtain will fall upon this most holy enterprise, and we trust our people will enable us to present an expose that will be more satisfactory than we could make on the Bth inst.
