HOW TO CULTIVATE CLOVER,
Maui in’s Depot, S. C., July 5, ’(57.
In accordance with your request I
give mv experience in raising clover,
which 1 do ti.e more clierfttUy, as 1
believe 1 haw the secret of succeeds
though J make no claim to its discovercs
tor I owe the suggestion to a friend
who lost his life in Tennesse, nobly
hatt'.eing lor -{Southern rights. I have
wasted much labor and seed in trying
the Northern and Western system ol
sowing clover with some other crop,
and only succeeded in one instance in
petting a stand in that way, and that
was on a lot with athiti «laml of barley,
•vliich I killed out the next Spring by
pasturing too early, and too closely.
The secret is to cultivate the land well
the preceding year, say in.-cotton, corn
or potatoes, so as to leave no seed ol
crab grass: (weeds do not hurt so
much.) Prepare the ground well, by
plowing and harrowing smoothly, and
i! not rich, by maturing. Tliisshouhi
I e r, done about the middle of March,
mid immediately sow eight or nine
pounds of seed to the acre. I usual!)
sow bv slakes, lints saving the trouble
<1 laving off- —sowing a land of mr.e
feet. Anew beginner had better al
ways try a small piece of land, meas
uring both land and seed, as lie may
waste a great, deal of seed il lie goes to
f uessing. I sow very regularly, by
keeping the two last fingers clenched,
allowing the thumb and two fingers to
do the Mirk. 1 first throw out with
the first Huger, and then with the
other, making two licks for each
Vmdiull. By takingllieordinary wheat
sowing gate, this plan will sow about
the right quantity of seed. Alter sow
ing. 1 would somewhat prefer to run a
good iron-toothed harrow over it, hut
if not convenient, il will do well with
< ut covering, as l-iie first shower will
cover it sufficiently. The only advan
tage that l have ever seen in covering
was in getting an early stand, but if a
good shower falls soon alter planting
you will not -discover the. difference,
though it will *bow il it is dry.
Now close up your clover field, and
let nothing into it until the clover is a
\ ear old. About the middle of May,
when the first blossoms begin »o turn
brown, the clover is ready to cut. If I
v ou want to graze it, let it gel in bloom
iirst, then you can’t well kill it, but if
vou attack it too early, and graze too
closely, you are liable to loose your I
stand, if the summer should be very !
Imt and dry, you may fear that your j
clover is gone, but it you have half a
stand in the fall, there is no Cause lot*
fear and do not be discouraged, for in
the spring yon will be rewarded for
all voui trouble. We used our first
crop this year, in feeding in, the green
state to mules and cows —cutting it
with a mowing blade. We are now
cutting the second crop for hay, but
this crop will not do for horses, though
good for cows and sheep.
If this plan is pursued, I feel confi
dent that clover may be made grow
on any land that lias fertility enough to
produce a good crop ol cotton, though
the richer the belter. In some seasons
it will do well if sown in the fall, but
the winter must be very favorable,
though it is about as easily killed out
as oats. In a very favorable season,
and on very rich, moist, land, an in
different stand may be had by sowing
with someone of the different grain
crops, but nine times out ol ten such
an experiment in our climate and soil,
will result til disappointment and dis* I
couragemeut. 1 regard a half stand o(
clover as worth more than any other
crop, and nothing in the way of a crop
can add more to our comfort, and
clover can be raised with nearly, if not 1
quite as much certainty as oats can be. i
When a stand is once secured, it will I
last it properly managed, some four
years, and then by turning in the fall
ami cultivating in corn or cotton, fid- i
lowed by wheat, a good stand will j
again come. A little plaster or stable J
manure or both will always add to the
crop. 1 prefer mowing to pasturing, as
thus you cut away all weeds that stock j
usually leave, thereby helping the
clover to take entire possession of the
land. I do hope that everv mail in
tile fcjUUe " jil try ut least a small patch, 1
m
when he can see for himself its value, !
and be may add to bis crop to bis
! liking. 'J be seed is worth from eight
to twelve dollars per bushel, weighing
i sixiy pounds, and a bushel will sow
| well eight acres. All animals, iiiclmi
| ing hogs do well on the first crop, hut
the second crop, should not he given '
to horses, either drv or green. This
has been a very favorable year for
clover this far, and we have had two
cuttings, from two to three feet each
crop, j have tried clover in land that
had never been cultivated, but never
! very successfully li< and, stiff land, is
most favorable to its grow th, but it will
j do well on any of our land that is rich
: enough, unless very sandy.

lion ou Sut«jr<lay.
Early Saturday morning last, our
streets were alive with sable citizens
Male and female —of African descent,
and now and then a sprinkling of
whites. At eleven o’clock they had
prettv well all assembled at a spa
cious arbor erected in the upper end of
town. When we arrived at the ground,
exercises had already commenced, and
Col. J, It. Parrott, as the 'chairman of
the meeting, was addressing the crowd.
His speech was occupied principally
in demonstrating to the whites the pol
icy as well as the accepting the fJber
man bill as a settlement ofour difficul
ties. His speech was short and to the
j point, and well viewed by the crowd.
I lie closed by introducing the Hon.
James Milner ivho proceeded to place
I himself squarely on the Reconstruction
| Sherman bill and insisted on every bo”
j aa d and black, to go along with
him ami save the country from ruin
and the Democratic party. We felt a
little queer when we saw the Judge
holding the aforesaid party out at arm’s
length aad admmisteringtoits dilapida
ted body kick after kick to tlie great
delight of many ol the auditory.—
But il was done in the Judges usual
stvle who never does anything by j
halves—whole bog or none. He closed i
by saving that il what he had been ad
vocating made him either a republican
or a radical —then I am both.
Col. Henry P. Farrow was the next
speaker. He argued die necessity and
the expediency of a cheerful acquies
enee in the Sherman reconstruction
bill —claimed that the only hope of tlie
country was in the republican party —
advocated a liberal system of free
schools for black and white, to be main
tained by taxing the property of the
people ol the State, lie told the ne
groes plainly to look for no confisca
tion—that by ihe sweat of their brows
they must obtain property —that the
republican party bad done enough for
them in giving them freedom —that it
now remained for them to show a pros
ner appreciation of the liberty which
ihev had received by voting for their
friends —the republican party By
general consent the Col’s speech was
calculated to have a good effect Tho’
we differed with him in some things,
vet we listened to him with pleasure,
especially as we knew he was speak
ing the convictions of his life and not
of the last few months or days, Wcj
have known him all through ou r past
difficulties as a firm friend of the U. S.
government and the union of all the
States under it, yet, while he has
been ever a consistent friend of the
unicn, through evil as well as good re
port —in sun shine and in storm —he is
willing tc live and let live and opposes
every thing like confiscation and pro
scription.
The speaking closed by a rambling
harangue from llevd. Mr. Gaskill.
which strikingly iilustrated the old ad
age about the zeal of new converts.
The apeaking having concluded, about ;
two hundred negroes formed themselves j
in a line — ala mililaric —marched ,
through—up and down and back and ;
forth during the whole evening, all the
streets public and private of the town,
ami filled the air almost incessantly
-frl
with yells and screams without sign it- j
icance, to the great annoyance .ot ail •
quiet population. \\ litis passing main
street some imprudent young man
whose name we dal not learn,but who
had taken several cztra drinks, threw a
1 rock in the crowd, which hit nothing
and hurt nobody. 11 ■ was instanhy ,
' reported by them as having thrown at
' their flag and a few minutes afterwards j
a spectator in the lower end of tow;:
; might have seen a file of! IS. Infantry
in hot persuit of said young gentleman
tiring vollev after volley at him as lie
'double quieked over high fences and
level fields. One or two negroes we
. heard joined in and assisted in the fi
ring by the use of their pistols. We
have not learned the fate of the young
'man some reporting him as killed, o'
j vht-.rs as badly wounded and others as
not imrl. It made us feel quite sad to
witness-such a thing in our community,
but we suppose it is all right and in ac
cordance with orders of the powers that
be.
The following resolutions were a
dopte-d Ly the meeting :
M hereas, The restoration of our
country to peace and prosperty should

whereas, concert of action is necessary
for the accomplishment of so important
an object; therefore.

Atlanta on the 4th of July last.
2. That the friends ol Reconstruction

The Sew Crisis—Tlie President
»nd Congress on a ISroad Issue.
From the New York Heraht.
The “irrepressible conflict” between
the President and Congress has sud
denly broke out in a fresh place and in
anew form, which promises to be
something more than a nine davs’
wonder. Tlie “grave public conside
rations” which have constrained Mr.
Johnson to request the resignation of
the Secretary ol vVar, Mr. Slanten. and
the “grave considerations” which have
constrained the latter to hold on to his
office until the next me eting of Congress
make up a broad issue, which simply
outs the President to the duty of fight
ing it out or the alternative of a base
retreat in humiliation and disgrace.—
The reply of Mr. Stanton to the Presi
dent’s request involves an off nee from a
subordinate to tlie Chief Executive
..llicer of the government without a
parallel in the history of the conn'ry,
But with the knowledge that the Civil
Tenure of Office bill was passed by
Congress expressly for bis protection,
.Mr. Stanton has been eucovuaged to
this unpreedented act of contemptu
ous defiance. Yet still the question
recure, is the. superior or the subordi
nate officer by this act to become the
master of the situation ? It strikes us
that if the law will not admit of the
removal of the contumacious Secreta
ry in the absence of Congress, the
President can and must suspend him.
To recognize him in his office after this
unsatisfactory passage at arms with him
is to consent on the part of the Presi
dent tc bis own degredation.
But why this request upon Secretary
Stanton to resign? Unquestionably it is
because, as the bead of the War Office, j
he stands in the way of the President’s
ideas as to the execution of the reeon- ■
sanction laws of Congress. Mr. !
Johnson desires to apply these laws (
with a margin of liberality to those
classes of the Southern people most |
directly affected by them. It is on this j
ground mainly, we presume, that he
desires to get rid of General Sheridan,
commander of tlie Fifth Military dis
trict. But, with a little reflection upon
the matter, Mr. Johnson has discover
ed that the removal of Sheridan and
the substitution ol even Rousseau in!
his place would practically amount to
nothing, so long as Rousseau remained
subject to instructions coming through
Secretary Stanton under the laws, rules
and regulations of the army. Hence
this question for Stanton’s resignation,
i He declines point blank to withdraw
| and fulls back upon Congress. We
j hold, then, that the only course left to
! the President, if he would maintain the
| dignity of his office and his own seifs
| respect, is to suspend the refractory
Secretary of War, and appoint or re- (
cognize some other person in the dis
charge of his official duties for the
time being.
This, however, is but a limited view
jof the case. Mr, Stanton’s suspension
is not only necessary to tlie proper
settlement oftlie personal issue between
him and the President, but it becomes
indispensable to Air. Johnson if be
would so apply the reconstruction
conditions of Congress as to give the
whites of the South a fair field against
the negroes. But is there not some
danger in this thing of making a mar
tyr of Stanton to his advantage as a
Presidential candidate? There might
be if he were left standing alone as a
martyr. But there will not be any
such danger if the whole five command
ers of the five Southern military dis
tricts are made martyrs of at tin: same
time with their removal. The honors
of martyrdom, in being tints dividid
among half a dozen martyrs, will be
neutralized, and so Mr. Stanton’s cal- J
eolations upon tins-score will signally 1
fail. Phis, then, is ilie proper line of
action for Mr. Johnson—thesuspension
ol Stanton, the removal of the five mil
itiry commanders, and the substitution
for ail these of other men who will
cm d'tally co-operate in the t xecution of
the la us of Congress according to the
t h oral ideas and purposes of the Presi
dent towards the white population of
! the ten States directly concerned in
I opposition to negro supremacy.
• Upon this broad and general issue
; Mr. Johnson need not he afraid of
j throwing down the gauntlet to the
: radicals in our approaching Northern
, Let it appear, and let it be
fairly uiiiu.r-.tood, that while Southern
reconstruction undersecretary Stanton
and tiie preset.t Southern military
commanders unde/ bis wing means
negro supremacy in the South, ami the
return of perhaps twenty or thirty
negroes as a beginning to the present
! Congress from the Southern States, the
execution ol the iaws of reconstruction
aimed at by Mr. Johnson contemplates
the supremacy of the Southern whites,
so far at least as to exclude negroes
from Congress,' and we shall have an
issue which will change ihe face of
things even this fall in the elections of
Pennsylvania and New York.
1 he whole issue in the South depends
upon the spirit in which these laws of
reconstruction are applied. If the re
strictions against rebels are rigorously
enforced, while tire negroes, without
question, are freely admitted to the suf
frage, as they have been so far, tlie
negroes will rule in the work ol reor
ganization and send whom they please
to Congress. If, on the other hand, the
restrictions against the Southern whites
are somewhat relaxed, and the require
ments to suffrage are fairly applied to
the blacks, the white majority, where
it exists in any Southern State, will be
brought into action, and white ascend
ancy will be the result. We believe,
too, that under this system Southern
reconstruction may be so fairly accom
plished as to compel even Ihe radicals
ol Congress to accept it; for if the idea
of universal suffrage lus now gone so
far that it cannot be arrested, that other
idea of general amnesty is close behind.
If Jell Davis, on the bail volunteered
by leading radicals, can be turned loose,
surely we need no longer delay in
letting ail the smaller fry of the rebellion
go scot-free. Now, then, is the time
lor President Johnson to make the
issue we have suggested between his
method of executing the laws of recon
struction, which means .Southern white
supremacy, and the Stanton method,
which means Southern negro suprema
cy and twenty or thirty negroes in the
two houses a beginning before the
expiration of the present Congress.
Let Mr. Johnson prepare at once to try
New \ ork and Pennsylvania on this
test, and he will discover before the
reassembling of Congress that they not
yet ready to be jostled by Sambo in the
United States Senate.

was, go into the orchard and bring a

whole number, and to the mother ones
halt the balance and half an apple over, j
and to the daughter one-half the re
mainder and half an apple over, and

Cotton in Texas. — Tlie iollowing is
an extract from a letter received from
Petersburg, Lavacca, county, Texas,
dated July 3Gih. The prospects seem
anything but encouraging in that quar
ter :
The whole country is completely de
voured by worms, with now and then
an exception, which 1 fear will not es
cape them. Everything in the shape
of cotton leaf has been devoured, or
nearly so, within the hist week. Even
small bolls have been eaten in part.—
'Pile destruction has been very great.
The first bale of new cotton was
received at Selma, Alabama, on Tues
day last, and sold for 25 rents per
pound. It was classed middling.
£«gTPapers all through the interior
of the State of Missouri, are complain
ing ol the drought. Unless they have
rain soon the farmers say the corn crop
will be ruined.
The Columbus Rope Factory is now
turning out fourteen hund red pounds
per clay of excellent article of rope,
which is furnished at as low rates as
the Northern article.
—A traveler described New Eng
land as the best watered country he e
ver say. He couldn’t obtain anything
to drink but water.
Editorial Necessities. —lt is cur
rently reported that a well known
editor, about to start on a recent trip,
requested his wife to put in his satchel
what articles were necessary for an
absence of two or three days. He
lodged at- , and in the morning
opened the satchel to take out some
clean linen, when he found it to con
tain only a bottle of whiskey and a
bundle of old news-papers. That

PLAN OF RAFFLE.
A duplicate number for each ticket will be placed In
a rofiod box. on small pieces of card, and mixed indis
criminately. The first number drawn takes the first
prize, the second t'r e second prise. Every fourth tick
et takes a prize. The drawing will take place in pub
lic. and conducted by disinterested men, under oath.
For full descriptions of property and my references
send for a circular, as tax is so heavy 1 will have on
ly one place to sell tickets,
SPECIAL IFLALZCT
Those who wish to buy tickets on this speeial plan,
can do so at foilows : I will sell a one dollar ticket for
fifty cts ; if it draws a prize you will pay $3 for the
prize, or not take it. 1 will sell a one dollar ticket for
twenty-five cents if it draw s a prize you will pay four
dollars far the prize, or not take it - One advantage In
invr sting in this way is this: If yon should pay twen
ty-five or fifty cents, for a ticket, and it should be a
blank, you are out only so much ; whereas if itwas one
dollar, you would be out fifty or seventy five cent*
more. G. M GULLET!’,
