A State Convention of colored people is to he held at Chlllicothe on the 22d inst. The object of the meeting is to enlarge their political irlluence and to secure a share of the offices. The wheal crop of the United States of 1573 is expected by the Agricultural Department to icacli -*130,000,000 bushels. Illinois will harvest. 15 per cent, less corn than usual. *•* A Griffin man has bet amongst other things It.at the cotton crop of the State this year will not be less than last ; that the present growing i rep ol cotton will exceed 4,000,000 li.il cs. The Thomaston Herald says that several ofthe small children in town, both white and black, have been affected with a swelling iu the neck, which lots proven very iiouolesome and sore. Iu acme cases It was with the breaking out ot fever I.listers ou the lips. ♦ • * “ Cotton nearly Injured,” is the way the Bartles ville Patriot puts it, and adds: “Unless the last extremely hot days have put a stop to their rav ages, the boll worm has nearly made a finish ol the crop iu this section. A Green Bax merchant put out a sign of “ ice water free.” Another put out a sign of free lem onade, and a third offered every customer ten cents In money. A fourth man, who couldn't tiiuk ot anything bclttr, got up a dog fight, and it drew all the crowd. —_—*♦ A talkative umu anuoyed a lady at a dinner party by constantly urging iu lavor ol strong drink, and at last ssld to her: “ You know, mad am, drinking drives away care and makes us tor get what is disagreeable Would you not allow a man to drink for that reason? ’ “ Well, perhaps so,” said the young lady, “ if he sat next to you.” ■ ■ Tuts Nor.h East.

Waddell, or the Uui wralty ol Mississippi, and the degtee of 1)1). upon the Rev. 8. J. Battle, President of Mercer University, of Macon, Ga. The Gilkln News has found the meanest tuuii in the State, It says ; A man who owes the Prin Opal of the Sam.

That is, there was a lump npou the top ot its head, very near as large as the head itself, and the nock was fully twice as large as is usually the ease. The chicken was about half grow n, and was said to he as lull ot iile as any in the yard. fur Savannah Advertiser says: We learu that the Btitish skip “ I.ady Dnfferln ” arrived at Port Royal a few days ago with a very large cargo of cotton ties, liquers and hardware for some of the Interior towns in Georgia. The vessel draws nineteen fee: ct water, and crossed the bar, so it is stated, without any trouble and without the aid ol a tug. The captain asserts that if he could load his ship there he would save about £SOO in port charges, lighterage and pllotsge, besides the delay that sometimes attends the departure ol large vessels from the ports of Savannah aud Charleston, where they invariably have to xait for the spring tides, and if they should lose one they must wait for the next one. ■ **• 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 chief Farming. Et. • *♦* 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 l,(Xi miles in 1,000 hours, aud her husband, who is a Methodist preacher, wishes the bet was for ten tunes the distance, and that she would march off in a straight line. 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. “In God we Trust.” MACOX ADYEIiTISEMEXTS.
