(£hi Ijcinhi c=r ~ 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. GLEANINGS. * :o: A water spout destroyed fifty houses at St. Chinian, Yt. Cactus leaf is to be used in paper making as a substitute for rags.

Clay says: “ I am against inflation, but still more against Grantham. I should hardly have turned lory in 1776 because of Continental money.” A man seventy years old is to be hanged at Cleburne, Texas, on the first Friday in October. Determined to make the most of his opportunity, he has asked for three hours in which to deliver a speech on the gallows. The lightning struck an oil tank at Oil City, l’a., on the 10th, and a high wind took the flames which followed to other tanks and destroyed forty thousand barrels t-f petroleum and the entire works, which are the most extensive in the country. The United States Marshal of Tennessee has arrested five “ respectable’’ citizens of Alabama for counterfeiting. Among them is 8.. B. Bowers, foreman of the grand jury of Greene county, steward of the M. E. Church, and Sabbath school superintendent. Chief .Justice Peyton, a Republican, lias granted an injunction restraining auditors from laying money to support Ames’ militia, and held that mustering the militia in a time of profound pence was creating a standing army of the State troops in viola* tion of the constitution. The condition of the texile manufactur ing interests of Massachusetts is still far from encouraging. Thousands of eases of printed calicoes on hand at. the present time, it is said, will have to bo carried over until next season. Manufacturers say they cannot do any business of importance at the preseut extreme low prices, and the re fusal of operatives to work unless on their owu terms. Worcester, Moss., September 22.—1n the Democratic State Convention, Edward Avery was made permanent Chairman. In the course of bis address be said: “Varied accounts of annual autumnal outrages at the South no longer direct the attention of !he people from incapacity and mismanage men . and of those in power. Men begin to discern that blood is artificial and agony manufactured, and are read}’ to administer the affairs of government like tlieir own private affairs.” Nominations : Win. Gaston for Governor and li'u. F. B%tlett for Lieutenant Governor. The Democratic Coirs*. — ln 1670 there were four Democratic Governors; in 1875, twenty-four Democratic Governors.— In 1870, four Democratic'Legislatures: in 1875, twenty-four Democratic Legislatures. In 1870 ninety Democratic members of the House of Representatives of the United States: in 1875, one hundred and eighty members of that body. In 1870, twelve Democratic members of the Senate of the United States; in 1875, twenty-eight mem bers. The ratio of progression will furnish still more suggestive figures in the eoming centennial year, when they will make a clean sweep. STATE ITEMS. Hart county has 24 public schools, six being colored, with 1,250 white, and 300 colored pupils. Bishop Geo. F. Pierce expects to make his future home in Oxford. lie has pur chased the Capers place in that village. All the leading towns of the State are making strenuous efforts to secure the loca tion of the proposed Baptist Female Col lege. lion. Eli Shorter, of Alabama, has applied to Brown's Hotel (Macon) for rooms for Hon. Thomas A. Hendricks and lady, of Indiana, during the Fair. At Sun Hill, Washington county, a few days ago, a Mr. Echols was instantly killed by the accidental discharge of the contents of his gun (in his own hands) through his head. Richard Peters, Esq., says the Atlanta papers, received thirty head of Angoro or cashmere goats, from Asia, per express.— The goats left New York on the 21stand reached here on the 24th. Two Twiggs county farmers Messrs. W. n. and F. E. Stoke, have been experiment, ing this year w ith rice as a paying crop, and will get fifty bushels to the acre on land that was too wet for anything else. An ex-Judge of the Supreme Court pro pounds this conundrum, which has tripped several Congressmen : If three cats catch three rats in three minutes, how many cats will it take to catch fifty rats in fifty min utes ? On Friday night an infamous attempt was made at Clarkston, on the Georgia R. R., to throw tho night passenger train off the track by placing broken iron rails in the frogs at both, ends of the switch. Fortu nately the wheels of the engine forced the rails out and the design of the outlaws was frustrated. At a recent meeting of the Farmers’ Club of Baldwin county, a “small grain” club was organized. The conditions are, that the member who produces the largest yield upon one acre, either of rye, wheat, oats or corn, shall receive from every other mem ber that enlers the contest, one bushel of the grain contended for, or the equivalent of the same. The Sandersville Herald & Georgian, of (lie 23d, says: “A large number of the col ored people of the county met in this city on Saturday last to talk about and hear about emigration. After considerable speechifying in front of the Court-House they adjourned to the old Clmrch to close the business and appoint two men to go and search out anew borne for them.” 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. To All Concerned? MINORS cannot get Liquor at my Bar without a written Order from their parents or guardians. <Jo!mi I*. Cartwright.
