In culIMJf the attention of our people to thia fnotm-ntpu.-'ly practical we would in the Very out et, record our ratn- rat protest, and warn against th* idea of imported lsb»r. Without catering iut> the elaboration of the oonaidcrationa up on which thia vtatomont ia bused, we content ouraclvea for the proeent, in say ing, that tho idea of foreign laborers did not originate with ua; mid although this in itaelf considered is no good reason fur discording it, yet it may become auob, if its Attendant circutnstanee* giving ii birth, arc such aa to point it out aa an ad' ditional element w herewith to prostrate the South still more and prolong her con- fusion, a ad loner her humiliation. We look upon it ua a olevsr piece of political strategy. And all tho more dangerous, aa it seems to spring from a benevolent regard fur our comparative helplessness. When it is borne in mind tbut, thepren eat dominant, wing of the Republican party, interpreted by their easnya in Leg islation, contemplate nothing lees than a practical antagonizing of the whites and blanks in the H uth, it would seem that it can only be actualized by securing through our own act as a people, tho dis placement of our present black laborers with a fore’gn wh t* lubor. Since the fix ed and persistent determination, now palpable to every one, ia to get rid of tho blacko, and this ia only abolitionism car ried out to its logical completeness ; and siocs the fuel bus also been developed und made patent to radicalism, that the negro cannot be mode ioiurraotionul, w hlch would inevitably result In his ex termination, tlicro is manifestly no way left to abolitionism to realize itaelf, save tho adroit run of getting ua to kill the negro by imported lubor. Wu then fore deprecate tho thing in this nspoct of it. Its humniiitarianism is devilish, and our whole soul revolts at it. We trust that in vindication of tho fuct of our being our former slaves beat frionda, we will not be wheedled by their anomies to da them a lasting and futul wrong, os thoy ociiiihcI us to do, but thut wo will historically demonstrate that fact by continuing them ii* onr laborers. And we should do this nguin no less on the scoro of economy to ourselves. It is hardly necoesnry how ever, to ui go this pica - f a cheaper labor. Mankind uro quick enough to find out nud take advantage of their own pocunij ary interests. That ia tho cheapest labor, which is tho moat ready nod tho most ef ficient. This is a little different from the usual statement, which runs snmewhut thus: The rhenpest is the lowest price.] Ours is yet an agricultural country; tho mochunic arts and Industrie; arc yet lim ited in their operations and therefore few or laborers of this kind mo in outuul de mand. For field labor we hove already to our hands n largo and sufficient sup ply of well trained und otliciont labor- is Bhnll our fields lay Idle, and tho country bo brought to atnivatinn ?

Moesrs. Newsome & Thornton have purchased the "Georgia Weekly," nt Tnlbottoo, mid changed it* name to the "West Georgia Gazette.” The pa per is now under the editorial charge of Mr. B. T.

As to the Northern Masses, men and women, they hato u.i with a malignity unalterable. If they hud no other ren- eou L>r linking us, it is (bund in tho truth which the hellish malice of our centres* onn never suppress in Impart nil history, that thoy made war against us when we wore right, thnt they linvo tmivtrsally and uniformly slandered and traduced a*, thut they carried the v.»r by foul means, and against the usogues of civ ilization, and uftor being tkvM upon a thousand fi Ids, thoy triumphed at last by dint of overw helming nurol/cra They (into ii* because they know that it is be yond the pow I jf Blunder nnd defflhintion, or the uplifted and burnished sword of tho conqueror, to dim the Lus tre or obscure tho glory of Southern Con federate arm*.

"that h large minority if not u mu- jority of tho South, Were Union to the core until after Secession Lest seem to arrogate more knowledge upon thia subject than we poaaosa, we will state, thut in the section of Georgia in which we then resided and m the county, of our residence, winch voted Oguiust secession, we know hut few Th- ion m<s. Thoy were nil either secession- ists, and for immerliato nud *eperate Htats notion, or for action by s oo-oper- ntion of all tho Bouthcru B aton. There was not one man in fifty who would no knowledge that ho was willing to liv» in the Union under President Lincoln. The man who wns a fVe* sms to tho tort, was, in the opiuion of us all, rotitn h tho ton and in nine cane* out often was in sympathy with our enemies during the wnr.

There may bavo been n few out and out Union mon, who did the same thing. II so they are entitled to double honor. It matters not whether the pooplo in tlo honesty of their hoart*, changed their opinions of the Federal Union upon the election of Mr. Lincoln, upon the vote of their Btutee or upon the opening of the w ar. Y’e love every man as a friend and brother, who was true to the cause while we 1-nd a crust, and havo but little patience with those who seek to dodge th** re.xpomabikty of thoir own vol untary action. si c told that feeding with corn for a short time before killing will harden tho lard. This is doubtful. Tho additional layer of lard deposited while th* hog i* fed on corn will he hard ; and the mixing may harden the soft lard to some extent — Hence tho longer the hog i* fed on corn tho better. In the sections where the ground pea doe* well, aim usually docs not. There fore the ground pea has been strong recommended in fcUcinng hog*. Dut i.t is ?V* Iru® that in the same sections the sweet potato* yields abundantly ; and this crop has many advantages over tho ground pea. It is easier cultivated : is of quicker growth, can Imj propagated from vines cutting after tho busy spring neason i* over, nnd nt times when it is too" wot to plow nnd hoe. It i* better to fatten hog* l>ecau*c the lard though durk is firm. Tho crop i* easily gath ered, may serve a* food fur man in lieu of bread and meat: good for cat tic and horses,und the hog* will fatten on what is left in the field. Mode of culture: Tho ground |*ea roquiror. tho long seasons ami sandy noil of tho lo\v-country. Y’o havo tried it on the rich soil of Cedar valley, with n yield of rank vines and but few pea* snd they poorly matured : nnd on th# san dy soil in Locator County Gn, with fine yield. Many person* hull tho pea tn plant. This is tedious and nonecc**nry by it tho cuticle of th* kernel is often thus broken. Planting in the hull often givoe two or three semi in a place, in* ronsing tho chnnec* i f n stand, with out which the pea orop is a failure. It is an error to stipposo tho germinating plnnt has not vigor to break tho hull. Guard well tho field lin'd tho young plants toko root; for tho {hinted seed yet sound, und exposed at tho aurfaco, offers peculiar temptations to the birds st that season of tho year. Plant in row* 'Jj to !» fee^ apart, and in the drill from 12 to 15 iueho*. It desirable, a* in the case of Sugar cane, thnt tho crop occupy the whole surface. •Picnt in low ridges, cultivate with the plow and hoc un cotton until tho arm* begin to «cnd dewn the stringer* that hoar tho pod*. Then these arms should not be disturbed. Lay them by clear of grass. The plan of covering th" oontro <-i , the hill with dirt is wrong. The pea t j OBi which con! hus to bloom before bearing, nnd in case J {{nmcetcud Hill, they ure coverod with dirt the crop is j un tioe. Ms. Editor: An^ariicte in the col union of the Journal & Messenger of tho 24th ultimo, captioned ' The Clamor for Relief,'" and yclept Justitia, in which tho writer has mi*Ulud the claims und intentions of a large portion of the voters of Randolph county, call* for a brief no tice at the hand* of some person who is more conversant with thifir principles than Justitia seems to be. Usd this wri ter confined himself to facts, I, for one, would havo considered it a waste of time and paper to notice him. But, this ho has not dune.

The fiift allegation is, that the mem ber* of thnt meeting believe that tho I.egielftture of Georgia has the right, nnd deeirea thnt body, to pnaa law* au thorizing repudiation. Now, whatuvor may be the privuto opinion of some per *qd* compr-sing said meeting, nothing was said or douo by anybody, in attend ance thereon, to render this charge war rantable. In support of th e | reposition, I appeal to the preamble and resolutions passed on that -ocasion.
