Be* lieving, however, those chiefly inter ested in the matter, are row ripe for the discussion, 1 propose to resume it, and I request that, you re publish my first article, promising to have the others ready at suitable in tervals. Yours. A. A. FocdThcuglits toi Farmers. NUMBER ORE.] COMMERCIAL FERTII.IZERS. AND “ UNDETERMINED ELEMENTS.” A painter of old conceived this quaint, yet shrewd device : Drawing a king arrays 1 in royal apparel, with crown and sceptre —a bishop, in mitre and gown—a soldier, armed cap a-pie —and a farmer at the plow handles—lie wrote as follows : King. I rule over all. Bishop. I pray for all. Soldier. I fight for all. Farmer. I feed all. The feeding interest is the great material interest. When it flourish es, so does the whole body poikie.—■ When it languishes, all else goes into a decline. Whatever is inimical to it is an enemy to every other interest of the State. No interest can permanently clash with the agricultural—for every other is really independent upon it ; anrl any interest which opposes the farmer and oppresses him and thrives upon the oppression, can do so only tempo arily—for it is sap] ing the very foun dation of its own prosperity, and must sooner or later, pull down the temple upon its own head. The fanning interest may he noth* ing*more than the “belly” of the old fable ; but it is the “belly” that sup plies the nourishment for all llie oth or members, and it is the most im port ant organ under all the aspects of health and disease. Such were the thoughts excited, when reflecting upon the present lan guishing stale of agriculture in Geor gia ; and, whilst seeking to explore the cause, there appeared three great enemies or classes of enemies to that important interest—yet all bear the guise of friends : I Commercial Fertilizers. 11. Speculators in Bread Stuffs and Lien Laws. 111. Homestead exemptions. On the present occasion battle will be waged against the first, and those insidious friends will be considered under the heads of (1) Frauds ; (2) ef fects upon soil ; (3) effects upon farm ers and farming. Some proofs wil then be given and a remedy pointed out. FRAUDS. Whilst glancing over some tables of analyses of commercial fertilizers largely used in Georgia, the attention was lixtd by the words undetermined dements." Immediately there arose the question, '‘Why are not these elo meats determined ? The reply prompty came. Because they are worthless Curiosity being aroused, the tables were scrutinized with more erne, when it was discovered that every hundred pounds of those manipulated fertilizers contained 25 to 31 pounds of undetermined elements, 15 " 19 ft moisture, -13 “ 34 *' organic matter, 14 ‘’l3 “ genuine fertilizers. That is out of every 10d lbs. of such fertilizers the farmer gets only 13 or 14 pounds of some thing not furnished by his own farm. Every thing else he has theie in abundance, 'fhe nature of the "organic matter" is not given ; blit, as its only province appears to be to yield a little aminoj -Hyt, tlie* presumption is tnat every farm can supply such "organic mat' ter," or its equivalent, in sufficient quantities for all necessary purposes. llesearch being stimulated by these results, other analyses of other-popu lar manufactured fertilizers were sought for, ami this general conelu sion was reached : that none —3o far as the examination extended—con tain more than 30 per cent of genu ine commercial fertilizers not found on farms generally, whilst few contain more than 15 to kO per cent. Those manufactured commercial fertilizers are, there*ore, frauds rp* on the farming int rest. It is true ihe analyses are published ; but few have access to them, or read them with care, or consider their import.— No farmer expects, when he is buying a commercial manure, that four pounds out of every five, or even two out of every three, are nothing more CARROLLTON. GEORGIA. FRIDAY MORNING, NOVEMBER 21. 1873. than the common dirt, water and de caying organic matter that he has in abundance at home. He naturally supposes that he is getting something that, he has not on his farm and that is much more valuable than he has tneie. lie is deceived and therefore defrauded ; and however willing he may be to be humbugged, the fraud is none the less culpable. effects upon soil. Os the value of a good commercial fertilizer tuere can be no question.— It seems to give crops an early and vigorous start—stimulating the soil, so to speak to the greatest exertions to push forward vegetation to abun dant fruitage and early maturity. But it must be judiciously applied, and farmers should remember that plants do not derive all their nourishment from the soil. Moreover, there is some danger to be apprehended from the long contin ued use of highly stimulating manures; for tlm.experience of market gardens has proved that they tend ultimately to make tile soil lifeless, productless and that rotation of manures is as important as a rotation of crops. — Commercial fertilizers should not. then, he exclusively used for too long a period upon the same piece of ground. Different kinds should he alternately used, or they should alter note with home made manures.— Guard the life of the soil, by giving it a jndicious variety and an abun dant supply of wholesome food Too much stimulant may he as had jor the land as for the owner. Home made food is generally better and freer from adulteration than any other. EFFECTS UPON FARMERS AMD FARMING, These are palnfu'ly evident. Re* lying upon commercial fertilizer, fanner have largely neglected home made manures, and have turned their attention almost exclusively to money producing crops. Bread crops appear to be at a discount, and speculative farming to be all the go. The result is, “Hard times and worse a coming.” Georgia owed abroad in 1871, for supplies upwards of thirty six mil*, lions of dollars. Os th is amount ten millions were for commercial fertil izers v The speculative crops did not pay expenses, and the general conse quence of speculative farming is that the people are getting deeper and deeper in debt eveuy year. Speculation is a disease, a mania ; and the speculator is a sort of business loon. He is sometimes successfu' but he generally ends in bankruptcy. When then speculation pervades the entire community, what is to he exs pected ? Universal disaster. So teaches the past. In vain Go Bpecu’ative farmers ar* gue that they can buy their supplies cheaper than they can raise them.— Their figures arc vety plausible, but figures often lie. Experience teaches that the country which depends upon another for its “belly timber,” its very Life, must be content to occupy a de pendent position and to become a mere “h£wer of wood and drawer of water” for the life dispensing sec tion. rftooF. Every community furnishes abun dant proof of the general teaching of this article. There is farmer A. 110 is what is called a “hog and hominy” man.— His crib is always supplied with home made corn, his larder sorted with home made bacon,; his horses are in good condition ; lie is in no hurry to sell his cotton ; his parse is plethoric and he has money to lend IK buys no northwestern corn or meat. lie maflts plenty of everything at home, using little if, any commercial mas nure. Yonder is farmer Z. lie is a cot ton producer Has cotton always on the brain. It is the staple of his thoughts, Avoids dreams and life. He expects to go to cottjpndom when he dies, and Mds fair to turn into a cotton worm even before his death. lie has ‘'speculation in his eve.” Is.always hard run. yet always upon the point of maki; g a “ten strike !” Last year his figures deceived him, or the seasons were bad, or his hands didst t work, or his stock died, or some adverse thing happened ; but this year things are working to suit him, and lie is going to make as much as a dozen “hog and hominy” fellows will make in a life time. Those old plodders are, in his estimation, the geesiest geese in the world. At the same time he is largely indebted to them for money borrowed, or for corn, or for bacon.— His teams are lean and hungry, and always upon the road hauling supplies instead of being at work in the field ; ami he is behind with his factors, his hands, and every body else, lie uses commercial fertilizers largely, but makes no manures at home. His crop may be a good one ; but it is generally consumed before it is gathered, and the end of each year finds him deeper iu debt than he was twelve months before. Every reader can “spot' these rep resentative farmers. the remedy. 1. Let our farmers “live at home and board at the same place;” in oth er words, raise their own “hog and hominy ’ putting in the money crop after making sure of the life crop.— I his will stop the terrible drain upon us tor the purchase of western sup plies. -• Pay special attention to home made manures. Three hundred dol* lars judiciously expended at home, will produce at least fifty tons ot ma nure—a good set oil against five tons of commercial fertilizers. Thus an other drain will be stopped—millions being kept at home that would other wise he sent abroad. 3. Let each county have an agri cultural society and organize a com pany for the home preparation of com mercial fertilizers. The State should aid in this matter by having a coins potent Slate Agricultural Chemist whose, duty it shall be to study the different varieties of soil and prepare formulas for the manufacture of fertil izers the best adapted to the different crops cultivated at different times on the same field, the county companies, organized in the interest of the county fanners and maintained at their expense, supplying the man ufactured fertilizers to home consum ers at the bare cost of production. CONCLUSION. % Commercial Fertilizers, as now mans ufactnred and sold, are enemies to the farming interest, because (1) they fraudulently deceive farmers as to their composition and value ; (2) the continued use ol highly stimulating manures tend to exhaust the soil very rapidly ; (3) their use tends to dis courage the preparation ot home ma nures and develops a state of specula tive farming ; and this style cf farm ing leads to speculative living and fi nancial disaster. Ag nr cot..f Amicus. XsGE It lias often been said that “truth is stranger than fiction.” The following has lately came to our ear?. Whether it be true or not, we are not, at the present time in our pres ent condition, prepared to say, but still it was tons to us as such, and we dare not doubt it. A young man, living near Alcova River, about 5 miles from here Las greatly puzzled the neighbors by Ids ingenious man ner of capturing wild ducks. He puts a hollow pumpkin over his head, and trades into the pond where the ducks frequent. Presently these unsuspect ing birds perceive a floating pumpkin and, with quacks of joy, proceed to dig out the seed What the ducks who view the scene from a distance cannot understand is the singular way in which those who arc investigating the pumpkin suddenly dive and do not come tar the surface again. The pumpkin also reappears day after day in an undiminished state That boy thinks that unless the ducks grow tired of investigating the matter, he will be able to retire from business in a few weeks, and devote the rest of his life to the peaceful pursuits of marbles and mumble-peg. m It appears that Dr. Franklin in his will left Boston one thousand pounds. As he had an exaggerated idea ot prudent savings lie directed that this one thousand pounds should be in vested until it amounted, as he calcu lated in one hundred years, to one hundred and thirty-two thousand pounds. Then it was to be spent on public works. The sum has amount ed up to the present issue, to one hun dred and eighty thousand dollars.— The Bostonians take things in time, so they have commenced the debate as to what shall be done with this mon ey. A public parkis advocated, as preferable, to Franklin’s idea of “for* tification, bridges, aqueducts, public buildings, baths or pavements.” Editorials. —A noted chap once stepped into the sanctum of a vener able and highly respected editor, and indulged in a tirade against a citizen with whom he was on bad terms. ‘I wish,” said lie, addressing the man with the pen, “that you would write a very severe article against II , and put in vour paper.” “Very well,” was the reply. After some more conver sation the visitor went away. The next morning he came rushiu >• into the office, in a violent state of excite meat “What did you put in your paper ? I have had my nose pulled and been kicked twice.” ‘I wrote a severe article, as you desired,” calmly returned the editor and signed your name to it. A Singular Endorsement of Churches.— A well known barkeep er was heard to say that he heartily approved of churches aud the good influence they exerted upon society, for the simple reason that but for their wholesome and restraining teach ing men would become such a reck less and desperat- set of dare-devils that his life would not be safe in his vocation. That man’s head was level. The world is indebted for whatever of good it enjoys to the Bible and the honest and faithful exposition thereof by the churches.— Home Commer ■» cial. — 31 r.

On Sunday evening last, at the Christian Church, in this city. Elder T. 31. Harris concluded his series of sermons on the “Sign other Times,” as to the second advent of Christ on earth. A large and intelligent audience had assembled to hear him on this novel but interesting subjec*. The house was crowded to its utmost capacity, every seat being occupied. For two hours the distinguished divine en chained the undivided attention of his auditors while he snemitted his arguments in favor ot the proposition set forth that “the signs of the times indicate that the second coming of Christ is near at hand— at the very door.” 3lr. Harris stated that since ho had been investigating this subject a tide of correspondence, principally fr 1 a annoin mans writers from all part* ot tiie country had been ushered up u him, calling for answers to questi ms propounded by them. This, he in ferred, was produced by reports of Ids discourse having been published i:i the Atlanta Herald, the culation of which he concedes and appreciates. In support of the first proposition, the speaker added there, io-wit : That no dispensation had lasted more than two thousand years,, and that tins will not ; that the pres* out dispensation is Gentile, as contra distinguished from* the Jewish, and enceeeds the latter. lie also submit ted what is known as the serentary ar gument for the reason that holy writ abounds in illustrations by sevens ; instance—God created the world in six da,sand rested on the seventh.— The application was made to the ef fect that, as God rested on the seventh day, would the Saints rest in the sev en thousandth year. 3lr. Harris as serts that the coming of Christ will be premillenium and not post-milleni nm. Again, that the coming qf Christ will be concurrent with the downfall ot the Papacy which lie considers now in a rapid and permanent de cline. WHEN IIE WILL COME . T he preacher annoiuiced that Christ may come at any time : that it is near at hand, and lie evidently bases it on tie ground that the advent will be contemporaneous with the completion ot the year of the world six thousand, and that tins will occur before the year of Christ nineteen hundred. lie affirms that the cronological table, es tablished by Pope Gregory of Ron in is erroneous, in that it makes the world one hundred years at least younger than it really is—the tables establishing the year, of the world six thousand. He stated that there are Christians now living who will prob ably see Christ descending through the air. The discourse was elaborate and wejeannot expect in a brief a out line, to do more than give the most prominent points made. The speaker evidently has bestowed thought and attention upon the subject, and how ever the fact in regard to the time of the coming may he, Lis theory, when backed by his arguments, appears at least plausible. We regret our ina* bilily to give the discourse entire, and that any person in the city tailed to hear it..— Atlanta Herald. Humbugs and Sv/indles. The world is full of cheats, in every department of its existence. There is hardly any article of common use that is just what is represented to b where there is any chance to imitate it. Connecticut has long been famous for its wooden nutmegs and hams, and the genius who sharpened both ends of his shoe pegs and sold them for anew variety of oats was doubtless a citizen of that State. Many of our readers, whose heads are not yet very gray, can doubtless remember the time when tin pans, pails etc., were almost as lasting as pewter.— Then the thrifty house wife would scour them when they became dirty, and restore them to their pristine brightness and beauty. Now sheet iron of gosamer thickness—of. thin ness—is washed over with a solution of lead, which evaporates after a few week’s use, leaving an unsightly, rust eaten abomination, to remind us of human rascality. Modern pins are another cheat which ought'to stick in the conscien ces of their swindling manafacturers. A genuine brass pin has got to be a thing of the past. We buy a paper of pins, paying full price for them un der the impression that they are real brass, but find to our cost that they are badly made of iron wire, washed over with a thin coat of tin which will last till you stick it in a garment, but wo be unto you if it chances to get wet. No amount of pulling will dis lodge it, till ydn tear it loose by main strength. A fish hook would almost do as well. We once bought a large lot of needles nicely polished, and beautiful to the eye, but which might almost as well have, been made of type metal when put to real use. They were a delusion and a snare. So it goes, all through the catalogue. Cast iron tacks and scissors, paper soled shors, fur hats made of cotton, nothing is re al. We are getting to be people of sham and sh w, and the man who can make the best imitations reaps the greatest rewards We have almost got to believe with Hudilras Butler: • Doubtless the pleasure is as greet, In being cheated as to cheat.” [Ashland Tunes. A Stupendous Swindle—a he South to b3 the Scapeeoat For some time past intimations 1 have been given out in various quar - ters that a movement was on foot, the object ot which is to indube Congress to come to the relief of the South by assuming the debts of the Southern States. The latest development in reference to this grand carpet-bag scheme to render available and good the utterly worthless bonds with which, in their plundering operations they have burthened the Southern States under their control, is in the shape of a Washington dispatch to the Northern press which says : “It , is saidjthut Ben Butler will engineer the job, and that the plan is to scale the debt, paying twenty-five cents on the dollar. It is also said that Gilbert C. Walker, the present Governor of \ a ginia, is largely interested in the job. lie has been investing largely in \ ir ginia securities, and ho ires to he elec ted to the United States Senate this winter through the combined influ ence of Tom Scott’s Southern Secu rity Railroad Ring and the lobby that. 1 is t.i w rk for the assumption by the Unite 1 States of the Southern State debts." We regret to o v serve that some ‘v.'Ui’iern j uirnals favor this stupen* and ns swindle, on the ground that it will relieve the South from indebted* ness which her peep! • never contrac ted, and from which they have derived no benefit. There is some specious ness in the argument that a large por tion of the debt which has accrued since the war was fraudulently crea ted by the carpetbag governments forced upon the South by the Federal Government, and that since that Gov ernment is responsible for the acts of its agents, lawful as well as unlawful it is but right and proper that it should assume the obligations, fraudu lent though they he, that its bayonet installed satraps have created. Such reasoning sounds logical and just, and would not be without force it the re sponsibility of compounding with our plunderers could be devolved solely on the Government. But this cannot be. Whatever obligation the Feder al Government may assume iu the the premises, is shared by the plun dered taxpayers of the South, while the benefits to the result from tire as sumption of the debts of the Southern States, would go mainly to our plun derers and the rings of lobbyists and speculators who may unite their in fluence for the accomplishment of the object in vtew. m \Ye shall not be much disappointed if this grand scheme for plundering the United States treasury, now that the Southern State Treasuries are ex hausted, is pushed through Congress. The interests at work in its behalf are potent. Beast Butler, the unscrupu lous intriguer and corruptionist, it is understood, is deeply interested in bo . gus Southern State securities. As leader of the movement he may safely count upon the carpet-bag strength in Congress, while the temptation for speculation is so great, the scheme will not fail to command a powerful lobby influence. It would be strange in deed, if such a combination of influ ences could not succeed in carrying a measure involving millions of plunder through a Congress that only recent ly belonged to the Credit*Mobilier, and which did not hesitate to perpe trate the back salary steal. But if it is impossible for the hon est men in Congress to defeat this stupendous fraud, we hope for the honor ot the South, it will meet a vig orous opposition and a stern protest from her true Representatives.—>67:- vannah News. Living Advertisement*)* A medicine that has done more than all the prescriptions cf the pharoiaco-* paeia to protect the human system against the bodily ills superinduced by unhealthy surroundings, is certain lv worthy of universal confidence.— It is mainly on account of its extra ordinary preventive properties that Hostetler's Stomach Bitters is so ex ceedingly popular in localities subject to the visitation of miasmatic fevers and other diseases produced by em poisoned air. A family that has es caped sickness during a sickly season in consequence of using the Bitters as a safeguard, is a living advertise ment of the virtues ot the prepai alien. The whole neighborhood realize the fact. “ I coulden't have believed it,” says one. I scarcely credited the 'advertisements ; but one must believe what one sees,” says another. 41 It is the very thing we need in this un wholesome section of country,” re marks a third. And the result is that the instinct of self-defence, the first law of nature, induces three-fourths ot that community to obtain a supply of the g. eat vegetable antipode before the next sickly season sets in. In winter, when the system requires ex tra vigor and elasticity to enable it to j bafile the effects of damp and cold, the Bitters will be found particularly serviceable. Rheumatism will not be apt to fasten upon muscles and nerves that have been braced up by this ex | cellent invigorant and nervine ; nor | will the severities of tire season, which I have such a disatrous effect on the pulmonary organs of the feeble and : delicate, be likely to exercise the same untoward influences in cases where the stomach and the external surface ,of the body (which always sympa j thvzes with the digestive organs) have been toned and stimulated by a ! course of the restorative. Ihe fils of indigestion and irregularities of the bowels which proceed from sudden changes of weather may always be averted by a timely use of the Bit ! ters.
