[CNMMUXICATED.]
Messrs. Editors : I desire through
your paper lo give your readers my
experience m farming with the cele
br.tied Cheatham cotton the last
season. Having had serious iloubt s
about such large yields of c- tlon, as
some of ihe planting fraternity havj
reported, 1 conclude,! las. spring tha'
1 would make hi effort and see what
would lie the result, which I give
you. II it proves to be any benefit
to the f.rnvr—a class in whom I
feel h deep interest—l will be amply
rewarded ; if net,-there is nothing
lost.
Last spring, while examining a
bo'l of tlie Cheatham cotton that M-.
J. W. Carswell had on exhibition,
containing eight or twelve leeks (l
do not remember which) one of Un
locks, very mysterious'y, became
detached and found its way into my
pocket. When I arrived home I
extracted six seed from said lick and
planted them in my garden about
, the- 6th of May. Mo'de of planting
and cultivation was this : I broke
the garden up very early in the
spring deep, ans I,tid it off in rows
three feet apah with an eight-inch
shovel- plow, also deep. One of
tliofe rows about the centre of a
square I reserved for the cotton, m.d
planted Vegetables in the adjoining
rows. When l decided to plant my
cottonseed, about the 6th of Miy
I t >ok a shovel and scooped nut in
this row six holes in a basin Shape
nearly down to ih'e c'ay ; in tlies
basins 1 pul at least halt a peck of
lowl house and cow pen rninure;
wall this I added to aeh a single
hand-lull of sea fowl guano,-which
I hail on hind from last year, (do
not think there is much virtue in it;)
with this I threw in the t p soil of
the garden and mixed all well to
gether until it became about level
with the surface. In each one of
these hills I planted one seed, all of
which came up in due time, but
from some unknown cau-e so ne
died and o:lters were destroyed by
tlie cut worm, and 1 lost all but one
stalk : this I nursed carefully, and
cultivated altoge her wilt a hoe.—
It grew to be 6J feet high when it
commenced maturing and opening.
lasked my wife an i little daughter
to keep the proceeds of this stalk
separate from sane others we had
in the garden (having planie I some
ordinary seed in the hills foil which
th; other had been des oyed) as I
wanted to see h >\V much this stalk
wculd make. About the 10th of
October I w igbed 24 lbs. ot seed
cotton from this stalk and counted
twenty-seven bolls that I supposed
to be matured and would often, and
most of which ItaVe opened and been
gathered hut thrown with other cot
ton. This stalk had different kinds

of it, and di-! not occupy a surface

make a bde of 500 lbs., you have
seven bales, and 212 lbs. over,
which is nearly 1-7 of a ba'e.
I am not a farmer, an 1 no not pre
tend to say that the above i- a fair
test, but Ia n coastra tied to believe
th it there tsgre t ro >m for improve

To a Malicious Single Lady.
Oh, no! ol couisj sou were not
envious of that oilier girl because
she has a pretty face, or a better
diess than yours ; and tlmt is not the
reason why you to! Ia lie about Iter.
Th n she has a beau, anil you are
not so troubled. Your rest is nevei
and Sturbed by young gentlemen and
rather lute chats over apples an*! ci
der, or doughnuts and cheese, or jel
ly-cake and lemonade—vvlii hever
happens to be in the pantry. You do
n 't have occasi mi to conjure which
dress is most becoming—ihe brown,
b ack or blue—for none of them at--
iraot the lon-looked-for a'taclimeni
of a real, genuine, recognized beau,
who culls once and again—and keeps
coming, until finally the parson
comes ton,
You often wonder why it is that
the rest of the girls seem to thrive,
and one by one are married off,
while you—perhaps the pretti.-si
one of all; remain in discontented
loneliness.
It will never mend the ma'ter to
ti-11 ii--s obout them.- Malice lias a
long lash that isdaogerous, inasmuch
us it oftem flies back and hits the
one square in the face who would
wie'd it to thrash somebody else.--
The secret ol your failure is only a
mystery to yourself. All the peo
p e of thq tdwn or neighborhood
know th rt you are too anxious (bra
beau to catch one, and that you dis
gust gentlemen by slandering other
young ladies. If you know anilK
n-poit ot a girl to be true, b e the
I us- one to tc lit to men, both for
her sake and your own. To have
the name of a sctndal-mong'r is
most dangerous to success in life ;
Out to malign your Own sex—who
have so iiiucn to Hattie, with so lit
tle advantage, and, to. gentlemen ups
on whom society be stows the liber
ty of suiting their ideas and actions
I I their own pleasure,, so Irrng as
they keep iut of jail—this is very
mean and unwomanly, and meri's
£he co'nteinptjof f rtune.
To relate toa.man scandle, which,
Stiff of Womxny- blights her good
na ne —and give him the opportuni
ty of bandying her reputation from
one month to another, perhaps as
foul as his owir when the same mat
ter attributed to himself, ha would
laugh oflj and others would not con
sider woith mentioning—a woman
who can do this is unworthy is un
worthy the name, and, until she re
p tits ofsuch communications, de
seivisthat bid luck shall follow
j ll'-r.
Not to be too anxious to getm tr

The subject nea es tee heart is often
on the lips Then you never believe
any other girl’s beau intends to inat
ry Ifr, for two -ivasons, namely—
yon hope lie will n >i, and then it
j seems a herculean work to get mar
ried ; you have tried so long and
filled. You meet every man’s at
tentions more than hail way, and r >h
him of his share of the courting.
Yon are two sweet by half. All
sugir, without any spice or tan
taste, sickens a in in. You are some
times displeased, but you never let
gentlrin 11 know it lor fear of losing
them. An honest display of temper
and proper resentment, with an “I
don’t rare whether you like me or
not” manner, would s curea beau
that is to s. y, il you can exercise
some of the malice that has li therio

Clerks at glove counters have a
great tle.il to try their pudence. For
iie-tutic ■, a very s yl sh yuuug lady
will take a pair of six-button and lav

only put on ooc. which, when the
dance begins, she wil re neve to
protect it bom perspiration. When
she goes h une she wil! carefully fold
the glove in the origin and creases, put

Bible to pre.-s, and the next tnorni g
go down to the store and tell the
clerk that those gloves lie sold her
yesterday arc entirely 10 • 1 ght, and
that she vvotiid dkeio exclmige them
