Tub Griffin News says : We have learned that
at one of the colored churches a few miles from

some time, that the zeal of the members has run
into fanaticism, or perhaps more properly speak
ing a wi'd, ungovernable excitement. Me are
told that numbers of them strip themselves of
everything but their outside clothing, form a

they give away from sheer exhaustion. The
wildest enthusiasm prevails, and the scenes are
indiscribable.
The Chronicle & Sentinel says the programme

finest musical treats that has occurred in Au
gusta. The tenor singer who will assist the Au
gusta Quartette Club is said to be unsurpassed in
this country. The violinist who.will also take part
in the picgramms is one of the finest players in
America. Altogether, the concert will be a grand
affair, and we predict a crowded house on the oc
casion.
From the Albany News we clip the fallowing
weather and cotton repert: The last ten days have
been the hottest, divert aLd most oppressive of
the season. Cane, peas, potatoes and turnips are
sutleriug seriously for the want of rain. Cotton
Las had somewhat of a respite from the ravages
of the caterpillar, and is doing well in this county
auel above this. We bear less complaint than ten
days ago, and the belief gains ground that Dougu
erty, Calhoun, Early, Lee’, Worth and ail South
western counties above this line are sa e lor three
fourths to a lull crop. If the worm eats no more
we shall make a large crop. If it continues to
•at we may be reduced to two-thirds.
Wliat Gov. Smith Said at Athens.
We copy tte fcl owing.sensible remaika from tee
great speech of Gov. Smith, delivered be ore the
Agricultural Convention at A then-:
‘‘Our agriculture, so far as oar great staples*
concerned, is iceumb red with peculiar bardetss
and trials. A strike in May, or a wholedeser
tion of a crop tL n, is a .
by bid men, or by a venal v. to ex.-, r. bare
terms of the employ* r,' a w.. tor , m m eat
of the crop seas n, and .-ert?, and the cot: .-n p.anter
Is ruined. Well, tt.j r ply to ail this . . av the
parties on their contract. We are told • m n
who know, or ought to know, that a judgement
on such a contract is f imply— a bit of p --poll
ed by the lines written on it.
This is no redress, either to the individual
wronged or the Plate, or the wor.d eg deeply in
erestsd in the results of this years* labor. The
remedy is not simple or self-evident I admit, said
the speaker ; but something must be done to alle
viate the evils tliat arc* pressing cur section over
the precipice of bankruptcy. Let us all contrib
ute the best we have to offer, iu promoting meas
ures of relief, I suggest as my contribution, that
in all such cases as appeal to the courts for the en
forcement of a ‘specific performance’ cf the con
tract, The remedy is as old a3 equity law itself,
and if courts now in existence are not numerous
e&ough or convenient enough for a proper care of
sacn cases, let us establish and empower them
whenever they may be needed.
While we were cariDg for the pe: verse and dis
honest laborer who engages to work, don’t let us
forget to take care, at the same time cf the dis
honest hirer who is too corrupt and dishonest to
pay. Let all have equal justice and be made to
stand on his engagement. Then when we have
secured reliable labor, let us reform our mode of
life as planters aud fargKr*. Send no money out
of the country to enrich strangers which can as
well and better be kept at home to enrich and
adorn home. Study email economies— waste noth
ing, the charity and hospitality may never be felt
as a burden, and that the great staple cop which
I so blesses or rather which might to bless our laud
if properly used—may be held iu reseive for that
diversified industry which it is so much the fash*
| ion of those preaching reform to urge upon us.
1 Now it is worse than lolly to talk to us o! “di
versified industry,” manufacturing and all that
I sort of thing, when there is no surplus money in
the land. Make the tiiiers cf the soil prosperous
and then call upon them for aid to manufacturers
and mining. There is sense as well as logic in that
sequence, bnt until the money is dug from the
soil there is no hope or sense in talking to ns of a
diversified industry.
The Wheat Crop.—The encouraging experi
ence of the past year iu growing this crop as well
aa the limited area planted in corn this year
.should induce farmers to sow largely in wheat
during the present fall. The earliest seeding, be
ginning with that made by the first of September,
produces the best crop. It is too often the ease
that wheat sowing is delayed until the cotton
crop has been fully picked, hut this is bad policy,
and should only be done from inevitable necesssi
ty. Wheat must have lime to gain a strong root
and a firm hold in the soil to ensure a safe win
tering. Perhaps it is a misfortune to us iu the
South than a crop can he made by sowing as late
as the middle of December, as that fact induces a
dilatory habit in the farmer with respect to this
work. A late sowing brings late ripenir gin the
Spring, involving the crop in the perils of lust end
insect ravages in the spring, which the early ri
peniug crops are more likely to escape.
It is a poor business to expend seed and culti
vation on an acre of land, and reap six bushels of
wheat from it, which is about the average of
wheat production in Georgia ami adjoining
States. It is much better to prepare well one
fourth oi the usual number of acres, and to leap
twenty to twenty-five bushels per acre. This can
be done in an average season by properly working
and fertililizing tbe soil. The first requisite is
deep and thorough plowing and harrowing, to
give depth of loose soil and a fineness of texture,
free from lumps and clods. The second is the
addition of a fertilizer suited to this crop. Home
made manures are always to be preferred when
to bo had, not only for reasons of economy, but
for the contained ammonia, which is the dominant
fertilizer for wheat. If a compound fertilizer for
wheat. If a compound fertilizer be relied on, it
should contain ammonia in full supply as well as
a fair proportion of phosphate of lime and potash.
The fertilizers prepared for cotton do not contain
enough of the former ingredient for wheat.
It is to be regretted that a special fertilizer for
wheat is not properly prepared and offered in cur
markets. Those who would compound it from
the simple eubstances should, if possible, procure
nitrate of soda, sometimes called soda-salt petre,
which is less expensive than sulphate of ammonia,
and[contains the requisite nitrogen, but in another
of its combined forms. Either ot these, in com
bination with muriate of potash, the Charleston
acid phosphate, and land plaster, (gypsum,) would
in our estimation, form a complete fertilizer tor
wheat in any of our soils in the cotton region.
Where these cannot be procured the only refuge
is in the use of the fertilizers for cotton, which
are good, but not the best. When the seeding is
done late in the fall it is possible to make the
seed of the current year’s crop of cotton available
for wheat, but the seed should be crushed, if pos
sible, to give tte crop its whole fertilizing power,
without loss by dissipation of any of its constitu
ents, ensuing from its germination, in the soil, as
Mell as from its slow process of decay.— Bur a

The True Story of Kate Stoddard's Con
fession. —As the question has been raised, “ Did
Kate Stoddard, the alleged murderess of Charles
Goodrich, ever make a confession ?” the subjoined
account of what the prisoner admitted shortly af
ter her arrest, though by no means part ol the
official record in the case, will prove interesting.
All other stories concerning her connection with
the tragedy are without any foundation in fact
whatever.
Shortly after the arrest of Kate Stoddard she
stated there was no person implicated with her in
the shooting of Charles Goodrich ; that she did it
unaided, and for the reason that he had cast her
off after having pretended that she was his wife,
and she could not bear to see him living as the
husband of another woman. After thing the three
bullets that were found in his skull she tock his
pistol and discharged down the cellar of the house,
as she supposed, three shots. But she must have
mistaken the count, as the p'.stcl found by his side
had four empty chambers. The weapon used in
the murder, which had but three chambers empty,
she retained. This latter revolver was found in
the same condition by Chief Campbell among her
effects. The watches, ring, money, etc., she ad
mitted having taken, saying that she desired not
to realize any thing from the disposition of them,
but simply to retain them as mementoes.
Previous to the inquest she expressed an earn
est desire to make a full statement of the case,
and was only deterred from doing so by the advice
of her counsel, Mr. De Witt, who stated as an ex
planation that it was impossible for him to say
what the line of defense of the accused would be
at the trial before the Court of Oyer and Terminer.
She still insists that the story in regard to any
person having assisted her in the killing' of Good
rich is totally without foundation; and as to the
name of Roscoe—she said, turning to her counsel,
on the inquest, “ This is all Greek to me; I can
not understand it.” There was an air of sincerity
and simplicity about Kale’s manner which sur
prised the counsel. The theory of the defense
will doubtless be insaaity.
A Bad Mote.—The National Temperance Con
vention at Saratoga last Wednesday resolved to
make Teesperance—that is to say —Total Absti
nence—an issue in every election. It seems strange
that the Temperance leaders did not learn long
•go that they may work tor a majority, but they
can never safely attempt to use .that majority in
the political arena. To engage in parly politics is i
to commit /do de te. As everybody now knows, !
“ Maine Liquor Law ” was a great mistake—a ca
lamity to the morals of the people of that and
every other State that adopted it. The Temper
ance brotherhoods can, and do peiform, a good
work ; but, whenever they conclude to adopt the
plan of operations marked out at Saratoga, they
might as well disband for their usefulness wili j
have ended. i

COTTON PICKING.

is now conceded, by all who have used fertilizers,
this year, that tfciy have been a complete failure
throughout this section of Georgia. How our
farmers are to bear ti.b loss in conaec ion with a
short crop, is not tor mo to say. Cut I cm say
that a repetition next year, ot this year's purchase
of fertilizer, will r.--r.lt in a general bankruptcy
of the peoale of this section ot the State. The
question arises, How are the guano companies to
stand such heavy losses as were entailed by the
failure of crops in 1871; and the lories that are in
evitable this year? Can it be possible that we
have been buying dirt at 3 and 4 cents per pound?
But I will not discuss the question as the agents
ot tbe “ dirt companies” might try and throttle

SPECIAL NOTICES.
Undeveloped Vigor. —The feeble and de
bilitated usually fancy they a:e ia a more hopeless
condition than they really are. The resources of
nature are not easily exhausted. Even when
strength and appetite fail, when the eyes are
heavy and lustreless, the complexion pallid, the
neives tremulous, the body attenuated, and the
mind depressed, there is generally a reserve of
latent power behind such palpable evidences of
weakness. Various modes of treatment are re
sorted to by physicians in the hope of developing
and rendering available this store of sleeping vi
tality, but the surest, and indeed the only thor
oughly safe and reliable means of awakening the
dormant energies of the system is a course of
Ilostetter’s Stomach Bitters, Electricity, shower
baths, the flesh brush, sea bathing, etc., may
be well enough in their way as auxiliaries, but
they do not reach the source ot the evil. All
physical debility proceeds either from a. derange
ment of the functions of the assimilating, secre
tive and vital organs, or from a sluggish consti
tution. In either ease, and also in eases where
both causes exist, the Litters will invariably pro
duce an immediate and salutary change in the
condition of the patient, and eventually effect a
complete cure. None of the dangerous alkaloids,
too ‘often administered es tonics, can be other
wise than deleterious under such circumstances,
and to give mercury is positively criminal. The
direct effect of the great vegetable specific will be
manifested in an improved appetite, a more cheer
ful frame of mind, a gradual return of strength,
an increase of flesh, and a healthier complexion.
Meanwhile, however, the constitution, if inert and
feeble, will have been rouied and renovated by
the subtle elements of iuvigoralioa contained in
the Bitters.

PAIN-KILLER.
HAS been tested in every variety of climate and
by almost every nation known to Americans.
It is the constant companion and inestimable
friend of the missionary and traveler, on the sea
or land, and no one should travel on our Lakes or
Rivers, without it.
Since the PAIN KILLER was first introduced,
and met with such extensive sale, many Lini
ments, Relief's, Panaceas, and other Remedies
have been offered to the public, bnt not one of
them has attained the truly enviable standing of
the PAIN-KILLER,
Why is this So?
It is because DAVIS’ PAIN KILLER is what it
claims to be, a Reliever of Pain.
ITS MERITS ARE UNSURPASSED.
If you are suffering from internal pain, Twenty
to Thirty Drops in a little water will almost in
stantly cure you. There is nothing to equal it for
COLIC, CRAMPS, SPASMS, HEART-BURN,
DIARRHEA, DYSENTERY, FLUX, WIND
IN THE BOWELS, SOCK STOMACH,
DYSPEPSIA, SICK HEADACHE, etc.
In sections of the country where
Fever and Ague
prevails, there is no remedy held in greater es
teem. Persons traveling should keep it by them.
A few drops in water, will prevent sickness or
bowel troubles from change ot water.
From foreign countries the calls for PAIN
KILLER are great. It is found to Cure Cholera
