fHCttSDAY, SEPTEMBER 30. 1875
TC4IE rito.'s.
The Sep*en ee rep >rt. of crops fie.,
issued h. he Stair Department of Ag
riculture, is full of Interesting and val
uable i.f i mauori, From this oompre
heiiSiUi' report, >vc make the following
extract in reunion to the agricultural
interests >f the State:
The .tuiiihcr.s following the names of
crop, refer to the estimated yield com
pared to the crop of last year :
f CENTAL STATE AVERAGES.
Corn, 85. Cotton, 73. Sugar canc, 70.
Sorghum, 105. Sweet potatoes, 75. Field
peas, 81. Ground peas, 75. Turnips, 102.
The estimated yield of corn and cotton in
the counties of Carroll, Campbell, Fulton,
DcKalb, Gwinnett, Jackson, Madison,
Elbert and the counties north of these con
solidated to themselves is ;
Corn, 108. Cotton, 89.
Showing an increase of 6 per cent. over
the estimate of last month in corn, and a de
crease of 7 per cent, in that of cotton.
The consolidation of the returns from the
Test of the State, including Middle and
Southern Georgia, give the estimated yield
compared to that of last year of
Corn, 77. Cotton, 67.
Showing no change in the estimate of the
corn crop since last month, but a decrease
of 9 per cent, in (hat of cotton.
It will be seen that Georgia will gather
only a little more than (wo-thirds of a full
crop of oetton, and fifteen per cent, less
corn than las! year.
These facts, taken iu connection w ith the
very low price at which cotton is now sell
ing, arc indeed discouraging, and should
stimulate planters to the necessary steps to
fortify themselves against the consequences
of this double disaster, by planting supple
mentary crops to supply the deficiency in
the corn crop, and, avoid the necessity of
buying, as far as possible.
A deficiency of 17 per cent., or about
2,000,000 bushels of corn, must be supplied
citherbypurcha.se fr;m other States, or
hy planting barley, rye, oats, early pea
crops, and early varieties of corn. GO per
per cent, of the correspondents report a de
ficiency of long forage. This deficiency
can, and should be supplied. Farmers are,
therefore, urged to save all the native
grass and pcavine hay possible ; to sow rye
and barley lots for early Faring use, and
particularly, to seed very largely of oats
this fall.
They very wisely increased their grain
streps last fall and spring; but tho disas
trous drouths and heated terms during tho
past summer, have caused another defici
ency, which much be supplied, if possible,
without purchasing at the ruinous rates of
interest shown in the August report.
The answer to the question, Will farm
ers sow an increased area of oats this fail 1"’
is very encouraging—97 per cents afi'tWer
ing yes.
There is no crop more certain, or more
cheaply raised in Georgia, than oats sown
early iu the fall. The rust-proof varieties,
sown in the full, are positively certain to
yield a remunerative harvest.
Now that the price of cotton is below tho
average cost of production, self preserva
tion demands that farmers raise their own
supplies, since, at the present price of cot
ton, there will lie no money with which to
Vmy, after paying the cost of its production,
todeed, tjie time has come when planters
umist. become farmers. The production of
heme supplies must be the leading object,
more stock must 'be raised, less land culti
vated, less labor employed, that employed
made mere efficient, ami cotton made a
subsidiary instead of a leading crop.
There can be no prosperity until our
agricultural policy is such that the cotton
crop of Georgia shall be the property of the
producer, and not pledged for supplies ad
vanced to make it.
UETIU:CTIO\ OF
\OL I, TEXAS,
% IKvarrJpf ion of I lie t'nlns
troplic.
On Wednesday, the Isth, winds from the
eastward, veering to north. On Thursday
morning it became more steady, increasing
to a gale. The water was waist, deep.
Every man, woman and child was seeking
a place of safety. It blew fearfully. The
situation was awful. Screams from women
and children could lie heard in every direc
tion. The water was six feet deep in the
streets. About two o’clock Friday morn
ing the wind veered to northwest. The
waves then became chopped. Houses were
washed away or tumbled to pieces. The
wind toward morning began to lull a little.
The water was getting lower. The wind
veered to the nerfh. Then came hope.
Daylight began to break, and then did we
behold the awful destruction around, and
thanked our God that we had been saved,
and that our perilous condition was as
nothing compared with the sufferings of
our neighbors and citizens along the bay.
Broad daylight revealed a scene that was
■too terrible to behold. The town could
nat be 'recognized as the Indianola of the
day previous. Ruin, total ruin, every
where. People were seen walking! and
jumping over one gully and another.
Neighbor met neighbor and told of the
troubles and tribulations of the previous
might. Death and destruction were all
■•around us ; houses crushed to the ground,
others swayed round and leaning over.
The wind was dying and the water disap
pearing from placet in the streets. Those
that could, rallied out to learn the news-
Bodies of men, women and children were
found in all directions. Police and guards
were organized, and the search was made
for missing relatives and friends.
How many have lost their lives in this
fearful storm it is impossible to learn. Up
to this time sixty or seventy bodies have
been found and buried. Wemen were
.found, and men also,' who had floated off
on doors or anything they could get hold of.
Some were beneath the roofs, carried
away a long distance. The escape of so
many of our citizens is almost miraculous.
The search for bodies is still going on, and
the number of human beings drowned will
never bo known,as there were a large num
ber of strangers in town. We estimate the
number of lives lost at 150.
It. J. Iluck lost everything but his house.
Eighteen bodies were found yesterday, and
the search will be continued until all the
dead are deposited in their last resting
place. You can’t imagine the extent of
the disaster ; nothing short of its full de
tails will give a proper knowledge. Num
bers of persons were out on rafts for hours,
but In many cases were not savstl. Wm.
Taylor, on trial for the Sutton murder,was
let out ofjail to prevent his being drowned
.and made his escape. All the churches in
the town are swept away. The court
bouse is safe.
Capt. Sam. I!rown and two of his family
were saved. They took refuge in the light
house, and were thereby saved. Brown is
now the only surviving pilot at the pass.
Great destitution prevails. The Victoria
people hearing of it, nobly sent us assist
ance. Information from Corpus Christi
reports that town safe, having escaped the
heavy gale. The town of Saluria was en
tirely washed away. The telegraph lines
are prostrated for miles.

about emigration. After considerable

POhlTICII;.
—This chunk of wisdom is from the
Petersburg (Va) Appeal: Money is no
doubt a question of great dignity and
moment; but a free govern moot rises to
a higher point of mor.it. It UiecqfortA
behooves al! the people who have re
coiled in disgust from Grant and
Grantism to unite in support of Demo
cratic principles, whatever views they
may entertain on the financial question.
First let us make sure that we have a
country woTth being concerned about;
and then we may concern ourselves cs
tewhat kind of currency its people may
circulate.
—The statement by telegraph that
Gen. Jubal AT Early favored the pro
posed new party movement attempted
to be inaugurated at Ro-ton, with Gen
era! Hanks for President, it turns out
was incorrect. The General says: ‘T
am firmly convinced that the Demo
cratic party, as at present organized, is
the only one whose principles and policy
can give any hope of a restoration of
the rights of the States and a return of
the Federal Government to its ancient
integrity; and therefore, standing with
the white people of my State, I will
give my support, in my humble way,
to thist party in the coming contest lor
the eoetrol of the Government, and
cannot g.ivc my countenance to any
movement designed to supplant it.”
—The Daily Graphic (a Grant organ,)
says of the Maine election: “The bloody
shirt has been waved once too often al
ready, Mr. Morton shook it in the
faces of the voters of Maine, and the
Democrats polled 13,000 more votes.
It scares the wrong way. The bull
runs away from the red rag. The pub
lic sentiment favors reconciliation, and
public interests demand it. Rceon
struction is a settled fact, and to reopen
the questions now happily closed woald
be fatal to the party that should at
tempt it. The country is interested in
questions 'of reform and finance and ad
ministration, of public improvement
aud the development of the resources of
the nation,and will not be diverted by
the tricks of political resurrectionists.
—The result in California gives the
Demcrats another State and another
vote in the House of Representatives if
die election for Dresident should be
throwu into that bod}’, There are
thirty-eight States in the Union. To
elect a President requires twenty votes
We count the following for the Dem
ocrats: Now Hampbira, Connecticut,
New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania,
Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, West
Virginia, North Carolina, Georgia, Al
abama, Louisiana, Texas, Arkansas,
Tennessee, Kentucky, Ohio, Indiana,
Illinois. Missouri, Nevada, Oregon, and
California. This will do. If the Re
publican United States Senate desires
to throw out the Southern electoral
votes, and so make no choice for Presi
dent, the election goes to the House,
where the Democrats are sure of twen
ty-four votes out of thirty-eijfht. All
hail to the Democracy of California,
who have given us the fourth vote more
than was necessary!—Cin. Enquirer,
New York correspondence Macon
Telegraph: I have for the past few
days beetroff and on a spectator at the
Exchange in this city. The result of
my observation is, that I atu satisfied
that it is in the power of the farmers of
Georgia, Alabama and Mississippi to
destroy a gigaDtic fraud on thoir in
terests. The amount of actual cotton
on hand is unusually small, but those
gamblers, expecting that the farmers
would rush their cotton in as they did
last year, are selling futures nearly one
cent per pound below what the actual
cotton itself will bring on the market.
Now, if ycur grange organization is
worth anything, act on this at once,and
prevent the planters from bringing to
market only such cotton as they are
'•ompelled to bring. The receipts in
Georgia, Alabama and Mississippi, if
moderately small for even the next ten
days, will smash to atoms one.haif the
cotton gamblers of New York, and
cause cotton to advance from one to
two cents per pound.
The Sort of Uevivul that is
Needed.
From Dr. Cuyler's article in the Inde
pendent.
The revival we need is not only a re.
vival of sounder scriptural preaching,
but a revival of true Christia living. —
We have had quite a surfeit of tho re
ligion which luxuriates in the devout
fervors of the‘prayor meeting and the
camp ground, which sings sweet hymns
and applauds sweet sermons, and then
goes straight off to its money grasping
and its pleasure-seeking, and its pand
erings to selfand sin. God forbid that
we speak lightly of true spiritual emo
tion. But the Christianity which
Christ demands is something deeper
than a song or a sermon or a sacrament.
It is the holy and the humble imitation
of Himself. *
The revival, then, which we need is
a revival of the religion which keeps
God’s commandments; which t.dls the
truth and sticks to its promises; which
pays twenty shillings to the pound;
which caves more for a good character
than a fine .oat; which votes at the bal
lot boxio. the same direction that it
prtkjS: which" debits ti""4W lusts, nd
which can be trusted in every stress of
temptation. A revival which will
sweeten our homes and chasten our
press and purify our politics and cleanse
our business and commerce from ro
gnery and rottenness would be a boon
from heaven. A revival which will
bring not only a B.ble knowledge but a
Bible conscience to all is what the land
is dying for. The world’s sorest want
to-day is more Christ like men and wo
men. The preaching it needs is—
more sermons in shoes.
