Forming for Glory. To sny that the editor of the Ilona ton Home Journal has just been spliced to a charming young wife is Biitlieient apology for the impertinent questions and remarkable sagacity encased in the following lecture he reads to his agricultural friends on economy vs. “glory:” Hew many of our planters nrc go' lug to farm this year fur profit and not fbr glory ? I low many arc going to make their supplies in abundance, and a moderate attempt at cotton— for profit? And how many are go Hg to make few, if any, provisions^ and a tremendous crop of cotton for glory? How far into tho next rear jean a family live on glory ? How many calico dresses will it buy, and how long will it pay the chil dren’s tuition? Does glory consist in goiug deeply into debt, mortga ging the crop #f the present year to pay that debt, coining out at the end of the year with cotton gone, provis ions eaten up an empty i>ocket and a stomach full of despair? If so, what is glory good for? Is it worth a cent ? Is it worth a “ continental cuss ?’’ Is it worth the twinkle of a blind goat’s tail ? Mutuum at PnAYEK-Mr.KTixa—The Augusta Chrniele and Sentinel says John B. Thompson was killed at Bearing on the night of the 11th in stant, at a prayer meeting held at Mrs. Baker’s. lie had lieen drink ing, and was ordered to leavo the house hy Mrs. Baker. He did so, but stopped ou the piazza, when she again approached him, ordering him •fl. lie disclaiming intention of in sulting nny one, and offered to apol ogize if ho had been rude. Where upon John Baker, son of Mrs. Baker, shot him orcr the shoulder of a lady. He inflicted five wounds, the first of which is supposed to have killed Thompson. A Sensible Fashion.—There arc so few sensible fashions that when one starts up which really does dc. serve that title, we feel bound to give it *ll possible countenance. One has just been inaugurated at Opelika, Alabama, which specially com mends itself. When a young lady over there eats a philopena with a young gentleman she holds the almond between her teeth, and the latter bites his share off. Now what can be neater, nicer, or more practi cal ?—Macon Telegraph. Can a girl stand a college course of study? Mrs. Stanton thinks they can, and says: “ I would like to see you take 1,300 young men and lace them up, and hang ten or twenty pounds of clothes on their waißts, |K»rch them on three-inch heels, cover their heads with ripples, chignons, rata and mice, and stick ten thousand hair-pins into their scalps: if they can stand all this, they will stand a little Latin and Greek.” Blue or the War On Saturday-, (says the Charleston Courier) the workmen engaged in clearing out the drain at the corner of Friend and Tnuid streets, found a large parrott shell, doubtless one of Gilmore’s messengers, reclining snugly on a bed of mud in the sewer, never having been exploded. It was removed, but with the most delicate handling. A Gimno nim on the War l*atli. Messrs Editor* .-—The season is now returning for tho purchase of guano by tho planter. Allow roc a little space in your pajier for a few words to my planting friends. I no tice a combination in Savannah, of guano dealers, to protect themselves against those who purchase and do not pay for their guano. That may all be very well. I shall not fall out with them about it; but I would sug gest a similar combination of plan ters for their protection. They should hold a convention and not buy from those whose guano has proved to bo inferior, or which has not paid in its use. Facts should lie made the projierty of all tho fraternity, anil the parties who have been in tbe hab it of selling us dirt and sand, and ev erything except fertilizers, should lie denounced and published. 1 suppose there are only a few of tho mixtures called guano, whoso base is net com mon earth. And in many of them this is a very base , base. I have heard of one company which dag up two feet of mud on a river bank, and sold it to us poor fools, for tbe simon pure—mixing it, of course, with some thing else to make it smell, and per. haps taste like guano. But if one of us should •happen to refuso to pay for such common earth he must be bran ded as a thief, and his name banded round the ring as a first-class swin dler. Let us have conventions and hand round a few names also. Shall we purchase Guano for tikis crop ? I have bought it every year almost since its first introduction — and what is more, have paid for it all —dirt and all. And if I am fool enough to buy it expect to pay for i'. again. My judgment is that a good article of guano put on land with plenty of vegetable matter will pay; using not more than 100 iiounds to the acre. On clean land it will not I>ay used in any way. It is money thrown away. But then to get that good article is the trouble. Peru vian is the best But a distinguished chemist told me last year that it was greatly adulterated, and not now worth half what it was ten years ago.? We are nearly bankrupt now from the use of guano in 1870, let us be ware of its indiscriminate use in 1872. There is no protection to us if we fail in crops by the use of guano. The [State chemist for examination and approval of guanos is only n disadvantage to ns. It puts us to disablity in contesting nny swindling practiced H|»on ns. And he can't and docs not pretend to examine one sack in one hundred Hint has his sig nature to it. The chemical analysis of guano is one of the most difficult and delicate, aud slow of process; and no certificate of a State chemist should induce us to purchase. In the absence of our convention lot us buy a little of the liest guano put it ou the laud most suitable; make our own fertilizers by compost ing cotton seed muck, stable manure, and all that; raise our supplies at home as far as practicable; and then we shall not go on to bankruptcy, as now seems inevitable. Then, if we can’t go into it this spring we shall lie ready for it by the next, and hold our convention, with our names ready to hand round our ring, and bandy alMint as common swindlers. In the meantime, for the sake of our frater nity, let us pay for all wc have or may buy, and be able to do so by purchasing only limited quantities of that which we judge to be best. That course will compel dealers in guano, to put it down to such figures as wo can afford to give. [ Telegraph and Mcxirngcr. B. The Inaugural Ball. —The grand inaugural ball tendered Governor Smith at Atlanta, on Monday night week, was the most brilliant social festival witnessed in Goorgia since the war—so the papers up there say.
