Boiled Peas for Milch Cows and Hogs.
“ Boiled peas,’* says a correspondent of
the Rich mood (Va.) Farmer, “ as food

far superior to corn, meal or anything

to increase the walk of cow?

but that thg improvement in their gene
ral condition was in like proportion.”—
» With respect to cows,” he says, “the
effect was, in ten days, to double the yield
of milk. My plan in using them was to
emir them in water twelve hours, or thro’
Sc Dight, before boiling them. By this
proceef, their bulk was doubled, and con
sequently they required less boding.—

The President is unhesitatingly of the

the grren crops above referred to. It
was. moreover, found to exhibit fattening

He concludes by saying: “ I regard the

tuends that his “ brother farmers should
lose no time in testing its value in their
own practice.”
Forty-Six Years Experience.—A

farming practice. Among other things
he remarks: ‘‘Some men say that com

Manuring.—Not one acre of land
ought a southern farmer to plant without
manuring it heavily, and making it pro
duce to its fullest capacity. Our candid
opinion is, that one acre of land, on the
average through Georgia, can be made to
produce what it now takes ten toy old
With one tenth, or one-fifth part «>f 'he
labor, then, you can make as much as
you now do. And we believe that if a
man has not the manure on his farm, he
ought to buy the guano, bone-dust, super
phosphates, and so on. No one ought to
cultivate land that yields less than a bag
of cotton per acre, or fil'y bushels of
corn—The Countrymen.

HorrirlI: Affair in Meriwether.
—We have verbal reports from Meri
wether county, in this State, of a most
revolting outrage committed by a negro
man, and of the visitation upon him of
terrible retribution by justly incensed
citizens.
A lady teaching school in a neighbor
hood about seven miles from the Warm
Springs, was on her way home on Wed
nesday of last week, when the negro met
or overtook her, and forced her into the
woods, where he brutally outraged her
person, and then tied her to a tree. In
this condition he kept her until Sunday.
Tisiting her frequently in the meantime
and repeating his outrages, but giving
her neither food nor water. On Sunday
*he was discovered by some white men,
in an in®£.hbtb’e condition. They restored
her to consciousness, when she related
the horrible story oi her wrongs, and
fold them that the negro woa'd probably
jsoon return. The men concealed them
selves to await his appearance, and after
awhile he returned. They had him sur-
The sights and sounds—all things that tend
To kindle valor in tfie soul;
Tlie-e are all here—but in the maze
Of squadrons moved with valiant glee 1
Still true to every vow we made,
I give my thoughts to thee.
The deep booms smite the troubled air,
Each throb proclaims th • foenian near.
And faintly echoed from the front,
I hear my gallant comrades cheer,
Wil ^ joys of heroes marching on
' Through blood their glorious land to free 1
I give to freedom here my life—
But all my. thoughts to thee I
And yet, beloved, I must not think
What undreamed bliss may soon be thiue,
It would unman me in the work.
Ot guarding well our country’s shrine,
Here on this sword I write tin troth ;
These words shall yet tby solace be,
They’ll fell how in this last- fierce hour
I gave my thoughts to thee.
Along the East the holy tnorn
Renews life’s many cares and joys;
This hour I hope some wish for me
Thy pure and tender prayers employe,
Another beauteous dawn of light
These eyes alas may never see,
But even dying, faint and maimed,
' [ still would think of thee.
And then in coming years'that roll,
When scenes of peace and brightness
throng,
And ’round each hnppy hour is twined
The wreaths of friendship, love and song.
Go to the grave whose heftit was thine,
Aud by that spot a mourner be—
One ear for him thv lovi d and lost,
Whose last thoughts clung to thee 1
Fashionable Women.
Too much is not asserted when we say
that it is highly probable the exigenc es
of fashion destroy nn>re women than the
pressure of toil or sorrow. The blind
obedience to the behest of fashion which
