Foith lYoni in scabbard, pure ami bright
Flaehed the hivon! of lan*!

High o’er the brave. In the caiwe of right,
ila stain lews idtcen, like a beacon light,
Fed u» to victory,
Out of its ucabbard, where lull long
It almnliered |waccfully—
Rouaed flrom its rest hy the buttle wing,
8h elding the ieeble smiling the strong,
Ooarding the right, t enging tlie wrong—
Gleamed t)-,« sword of Lee!

Out of Its sealitainl!—Never lianil
Waved sword from stain as free,
| Nor ptm*r sword led liravcr band.
Nor braver l.lisi for « lirigliter land.
Nor brighter land had a cause eo grand,
Nor cause a chief like Lee !
Forth from its scabbard! bow we prayed
Tliat iwortl might victor lie!
And when our triumph was delayed,
And many a heart grew sons afraid,
We sti 1 hoped on, while gleamed the blade
Os noble Robert Lee 1
Fortli from its scabbard • a 1 In vain!
Forth flashed the sword of la c !
Ti< shrouded notv in its sheath again,
It si. 11« the sleep of our noble slain.
Defeated, yet without a stain,
Froudly and peacefully.

FT"' •• a«d.i.xy»A» lau-yuaasitir^—The
resul's of the revolution, which have
eficcied so many imp'riant changes in
the condition of the S*>utb, have pro
duct and i lie niecssi'/, which bids fair to
prove * f incalculable value to our sec-
Iren. The interests ol the cotton Suitl
h ive long needed a change in the mode
of cultivating the soil—a system ofdcc|i
tillage that would counteract, to some
exit tit, the continuous thought, that of
lute years, seems to have become more
prevalent, us our soil grows thinner.
The fanning Implements heretofore
in general tiso may have answered all
practical purposes when the lands of
Georgia were fresh, and the seasons
more propiiiousjwlien the native strength
of the soil forced vegetation lo a state of
pith cti m with iho am sliest nmount of
cultivition—t ut ti.c continue u- nse of
short plows, ami the system of skimming
tiro surface, loosening just enough soil
to be wash* and off hy the ruins of summer,
bus well nigli reduced our uplands to g
mere skeleton compared with its former
capacity to produce. I.i former yeans
before tho cotb.n mania bail so com
pletely taken posse-sion of our people,
Georgia produced an nbundr.nco of
g uin, anti a failure of;lto grain crop
w «of rare recurrence. We bad plen
ty of provisions for homo consumption,
ami to spire!
Os lute years, the frequent failures of
the grnin crops have been n source Os
great disadwinlage, as well ns annoy
anoe, to our section, insomuch that
Mr tiers begin to look upon cottou as ihoM
only e- itain crop they can cuhgML;'
