Tits Brunswick Appeal says: Two bolls of the
finest Bea Island grown, has been placed upon our
tahie by J. W. R. Pope, Esq. This is the result
of fitly years selection and known iu Charleston
a the “ Pope Cotton.” The pods placed on our
table is from a stalk having one hundred and sixty
three bolls and grown without the application of
any manure. This selection was Horn one siugle
staik out ot a field of twenty acres grown iu Car
dins. The peculiarities sought were firmness,
strength, tvenness and length of staple combined
w ith tuliusss ot pod aud prolificnese of plant. That
this remarkable combination so difficult to reach
had beeo, ia a measure, attained, the exquisite
quality ol fibre, and the fullness ot the pods be
fore us, and the number of lull grown bolls on
sulk all show. It requires 600 pods of this va
riety to make a pound of lint. The stalk from
which this sample is gathered stands five and a
half leet high and calls for 50 sulks to a quarter
of an acre row, aDd 5000 to an acre. The marvel
ous yield then is at the rate of 5000 multipled by
lt>-, makes 515,000, divided by 900 is equal to 905
pounds lint of a cotton which would bring iu mar
ket to day f 1 per pound. If the worm can be held
iu eh eek there is no reason why ibis plaut canuo
be gardened by white laborers so as to prove re
munerative to a degree little dreamed of.
Pocket llumlkercliicf Farming.
Gove ot the country is inbred in every one iu
whose veins English blood flows. Few indeed are
they who do not wish for, or look forward to that
happy time wheu they tan go out in the country
to live. Oa the strength ot this feeling a class o!
books have been written, within a few years past,
which has met with wonderful popularity. “TeD
Acres Enough,” “Our Farm cf Four Acres,” and
others have been used with eager delight by thou
sands, to whom they opened a quick and easy
road to that rural elysium lor which they- had been
longing. The books were timely, well written,
and have done considerable good by diffusing
much innocent pleasure, and by fostering that
love of the country spoken of. But all such books
are apt to mislead and delude readere ignorant ot
real country life. It may be that they give noth
ing but facts, as some of them profess, but they
do not give all the tacts. Besides, even if ail the
hard facts were put iu, accompanied by the suc
cess inevitably (ollowiug, the readers are sure to
overlook the gritty facts and jnmp to the cotclu
Bion that “Ten Acres” are erough bupport a
moderate siz.-d family, say six.
In the bauds of one man “Ten Acres” may be
enough, but iu the Lauds of nine hundred and
ninety nine they will uot be enough, it Is in be
half of these 999 that I speak. Beware of “ Pock
et Handerckief Farming.”
If you have been bred to work in the sua; if
you are possessed of well fixed business habits;
it job understand the art of saving what jou
earn, if your wile has been bred to work, it she is
neat and systematic ia her habits, il you have
taught your children to woik, then, all these con
tingencies settled, you may ventme oa the exper
iment, provided you can keep out ul it something
to tali back on in case of tailure. Bat, it you,
ycur Wile and children lack either ot the qualifi
cations named, rest assured “Ten Acres" will
prove just ten too many for you.
But, you say, “ what man has done man can
do,” and, unless this book is a fraud, the thing
has been done. Besides, lam continually reading
accounts _>t people doing quite as well, il uot bel
ter.
All very true—“ what man has done, mau can
do,” under like circumstances and with like abil
ites. But, are you so circumstanced ? Have you
like abilities with those whose success is recorded
iu the books and papers? As to the abilities, ot
course you thiuk you have enough and to spare.
Nothing but tailure will satisfy you to the con
trary. So we waive tiie ability question and con
sider the circumstances
In every case that I ever read, there was good
land, easy transportation, close market, where
high prices ruled. These three circumstances
seem indispensable to success, nut even wit it
those great advantages, a truthful record would
reViul the tact that success had been won only by
the very hardest kind of toil, the most unremit
ting attention, and the closest economy. In short,
work and close living to support a family on a ten
ucre (arm that it would iu any other business, in
volving a proportionately small capital.
it must uot be iufeired that I wish to dissuade
persons Irom go.ng into the country to live. Far
lrom it. One ol the tniugs that I doire is to see
more of the business men go into farming. I
wish to see business principles applied to larming
operations. I want to see farming made a busi
ness, aud not allowed to re main the hap-hazard
practice that, it now Is. My aim is to caution
men from beiug deluded, by rose-colored pictures,
iuto takiug into hand ten acre farms with the ex
pectation of having a good easy time of it. Of a
kin to this Ten Acre talk, is that so current iu
the rural press and iu agricultural addresses at
lairs, advising the laimers of Tennessee, and the
planters oi the South to divide up their laud iuto
small tracts. The advice is bad, and if there were
any likelihood ot its being taken, it might be
worth while to poiut out wherein and why it is
unsound and Lad, but ae it is like pulpit abuse ot
sin, which every one says just tits somebody else,
I pass it by to a more convenient season, in the
meanwhile repeating, beware ol Pocket Ilandket

Eccentricity ANp Lt’Cfc. — A more eccentric
old man than Patrick O’Brien, wuo lives ou the
Jersey Heights, has not beeu heard ot lor many a
day. Patrick has a number ot oddities, and
among them oue that has given him considerable
notoriety, namely the habit of going along the
street muttering all .(sorts ol stuff to himself.
Some times he alternates his mulleriugs with cra
zy gesticulations that afford considerable amuse
ment to the passer by. Pati iek with all his eeceu
11fellies, however, is a man of some fortune. He
possesses a comfortable bouse aud some land and
cattle at West End, just in the rear of the bury
ing-ground, in a lonely spot a short distance from
the Hackensack River. A day or two ago, as Of
ficer Wessefs of the Jersey police was on duty iu
the viriu.ty ot O ilrien’s house at Wes* End, O’-
Brien gesticulated with his anus right and b-lt,
aud muttering at a 3-40 puce came up to him and
said that he wanted to dig up iridO in gold which
he had buried near his bouse, but that his wife
stood in the doorway and was doing her best to
prevent him. Every time he went near the treas
ured spot she drove him away Would the officer
protect him ?
The ( ffi.t r thinking that the otd mau had one
ot his queer treaks, only smiled good naturedly
and consemad to proiect him. Together they
went to the spot near the house, and upon reaching
It O Brit-n pulled off his coat, rolled up his sleeves,
and, under the officer’s protection, began to dig
u*> the hidden lore. True, there was his wife,
and the momeut the old man struck the ground
with bis spade, she endeavored to drive him away
Tue officer interfered, however, and the old man
kept on digging. The persevering energy with
which he worked finally riveted the attention ot
the officer. By and by the spade clicked against
some hard substance. The officer held his breath,
ihe old men, his taee now aglow with intense ex
citement, struck the substance again. Tnen he
dropped his spade, bent over and drew up to the
Eght out ot the hole which was about four fe< t dtep,
two broken bottles, telescoped one into the other.
These he drew apart, and from the interior took
out a buckskin glove, which he opened, display
ing before the astonished effieer a smail pile of
gold. Tue officer, whtu he had contemplated the
sight for a moment, began to think that there
was a good deal ot responsibility in the matter,
so he called together a number ot witnesses, aud
in their presence counted the money, which was
found to amount to SSOO iu gold.
The wife, win had stoood meuaeing, y<.t wit
nessing the whole affair, now grew quite furious,
and said she hoped the ground might open and
stva,low the old man up. Tue old man, who
seemed tor a moment to have lost all his eccen
tricities, paid uo tteutiou to his wife’s wish.
He now grew quite joyous, and, turning atound
toward the witnesses invited them all to go on a
drunk. The officer, however, pievented this by
taking charge of the old mau aud placed the mon
ey iu the Hudson City Savings Bank. O'Brien
says he earned the money in anti-war times, and
placed it in that spot where found some twenty
five years ago. During ail the time his treasure
has been buried iu that spot the old gentleman
has haunted the place night and day. He lives
with his brother, who kindly cares lor him and
overlooks all hia queer ways.
A woman in San Franc'xco proj>ost6 to walk

FORSYTH. GEORGIA, TUESDAY MORNING SEPTEMBER 2 1873.
Tlic Ballad of Farmer Brown,
Oid larmer Browa came into the house,
And wrathtully slammed the door,
And flopped himseit down into a chair,
And flopped his hat on the floor.
For farmer Brown was dreadfully wroth,
And his dander it was up ;
And he looked around with an ahgrv scowl
And wrathtully kicked the pap.
“ I’m tired bom head to foot,” he 6aid,
“And huDgry as I kin be;
I’d like to have a mouthful to eat—
Is dinner most ready ?" said he.
The farmer's wi.e sue w a* pale and thin,
And hungry a*d+m*.w** she ;
And her eyes was dim and her eye was slow,
And her dress wgßhfitght to see.
“ iubui < xsr is ready,” she meekly said,
“ AJffi wdodgers are 6mokmg hot,
But Pfe the meal all out o: the box,
AAffi last jint’s just troni the pot.”
“The mischief you have!” said farmer Brown,
Heaving a doleful sound ;
“ Thar’s plenty ot bacon and corn iu l. wu,
And I’ve no money to buy.
, Up Bpoke the farmer’s daughter, Mariar—
I And she hadn’t spoke before; —
“Thar’s cotton out uuder the shed,” said she.
Some dozen bales or mote."
I
“ Cotton, the devil! said larmer Brown,
(It’s dreadfully wrong to swear,)
“ My cotton’s all mortgaged lor last year’s work
With never a bale to spare.”
“ Well, then,” upspoke the daughter again,
“ It that won’t do tor teed,
You’ve two or three wagon loads more
Oi Dickson’s Prolific Seed.”
“ Qo you think me a beast,” said farmer Brown,
“ I’m ntither cow nor steer;
And whatifl was? I’ve hardly enough
Of seed to plaut this year.”
Then said hiadaughter, Marier, again,
“Thar’s guano, lots,” she said,
“ Thar’s twenty sacks full into the barn,
“ And barrels under the shed.”
“Guano? Oh Lud !” said farmer Brovvu,
“ I need all the precious stuff
To put on my cotton land this year,
Aud then not have halt enough.”
But when the farmer had eaten his fill,
He fell into thought profound,
And smoked his tooacco which cost at least
Some ninety cents per pound.
Aud then lie muttered—“ Thar’s something
wrong
About my larming, 1 swear !
We don’t have even enough to eat,
Nor halt enough to wear !
“My mules are starving almost, to death,
My cows are dreadfully thin ;
Thar's hardly a ear ot corn in the crib ;
And narry oat in the bin !
“The times ain’t like they odcc have been,
When I was young and spry ;
We had fat horses and mules in the lot,
And tat hogs left in the sty!
“ My cribs were always chock fuli of corn,
My smokehouse groaned with meat;
We then had plenty of clothes to wear,
And always enough to eat.
“ By tings! I’ll change my habits at once
From woetul experience learn—
This year my cotton I 11 plant in a patch,
And plant my fields iu corn.”
moral:
All yon whose farms are going to wreck—
Who’ve neither corn nor meat—
Just make the resolve ol farmer Brown,
And go for something to eati
Bandv Himgins.
Some Modes oy Hand shaking and Their
Meaning. —Every man shakes hands according to
to his nature, whether it be timid or aggressive,
proud cr humble, courteous or churlish, vulgar
or refined, sincere cr hypocritical, enthusiastic or
indifferent. The nicest refinements aud idiosyn
crasies of character may not perhaps be discover
able iu this fashion, but the mure salient points
ot temperament and individuality may be made
clear to the understanding of most people by
a better study o; what 1 shall call the physiol
ogy or the philosophy of hand shaking. Some
people are too “ robustious" to be altogether
pleasant. They take the offered hand with the
grasp of a vice, and as if they had with malice
prepense resolved to squeize all the delicate little
bones ot your knuckles into pulp or mince-meat.
And w bile the rears of agony come into your eyes
and tua down your cheeks, they smile at you be
uiguantly, like gentle giants, unconscious of their
strength and oi ll.e tyranny with which they ex
ercise it. Many of them are truly good fellows,
and mean all the cordiality of which their awful
squeeze is the maaltestation. Another, and even
more odious kind oi hand-shaker, ia he who offers
you his hand, but will not permit you to ge„ fair
hold of it—
“ With finger tip he condesends
To touch the tlngere of his friends,
As if he Itartd their palms might brand
Some moral stigma ou Lu baud.”
To be treated with the cool contempt ol super
cilious scorn which such a mode of salutation im
plies, is worse than not to be saluted at all. Bet
ter a foetuau, with whom you feel ou terais of
equality, than an acquaintance—he cannot be
called a triend-who loons down upon you as it
he were a superior being, and will not admit your
social equality without a drawback and a discount.
It often happens, however, that this result is due
to the diffidence of the shakee, rather titan to the
pride ot the shaker. It a timid man will not hold
his hand out tar enough to enable another to
grasp it fairly, it is his own fault, and betrays a
weakness in his own character, and not a defect
In that of him who would be friendly with hint.
Another hand-shaker whose method is intolerable,
and with whom it is next to impossible to remain, is
he who offers one Unger instead of live, as much as
to say, I am eittier too much preoccupied in iny
selt, or think too little ol you to give you my
whole hand. With such a mau the interchanges
of any but the barest at.d scantiest courtesy is
rendered difficult. Friendship is wholly out r.t
the question. To shake hands without removing
the glove is an act of discourtesy which, if unin
tentional and thoughtless, requires an apology lor
the hurry aud inudveitenee which led to it. This
idea would cease to be an occult remnant ct the
notion that that the glove might conceal a weap
on. Hence tiu courtesy and triendMup required
that the hand should be naked as a proot ot good
laith.— Phrenological Journal.
NtURiL Allies.—The Farmers' Granges arc
disturbing the Republican politicians, some of
whom are losing their tempers. The Green Bay
(Wisconsin) Gaa.tte says that, “ Generally speak
ing, you will find the leapers and agitators in these
•movements’ and a urge show ot the members,
men who have signally f tiled as good members,or
as thrifty and successful members iu any capacity;”
and worse than all, declares the Gaaetie, “ It is to
be admitted that alisnch organizations are natural
allies ol the Democratic party.”
And they are natural allies lor the reason that
bolb are aiming to secure the same great objects :
1. As little government as is consistent with
desirable efficiency.
9. Low taxes and frugal expenditures, so that
labor may be lightly burdened.
3. The abolishment of all unnecessary offices,
sinecures aud high salaries.
i. The overthrow or curtailment ol .the power
ot monopoly and class legislation, by which the
creators of wealth sre defrauded of their just share
ot its profits.
. Therein is the bond of union which makes the
Granges and aii other relorm movements the nat
ural allies of the Democratic pa. ty.
