upon which uur p .mlcr« must rely for;

what hi y.trm. One great trouble with the
farmers of the present day is, that w hat i
money they get-for eoM’oit, they have to 1
pay it out for labor and provisions.
Labor, we i-.innot directly control, but
the provision qm .'Foil is in our own;
hands, and t hrough that, if properly man- j
aged, we can. to ■< cuiioderAble extent,
manage the subject of labor. The. plan-;
tors of thnj sc ti«.n have generally raised
about criun<d corn and oats, and in
this respect, are better off than some ill
other ps't s -of the tState, but they have,
with icy. exceptions, neglected raising
meat, ns th ’V once and; 1. And this is one
of the p; ep, u--s of cuibu t raesment.
to many ot cidl'iin. We are awjwe
there may 1,.* s. ~ e ditileultiea in raising
bogs, wh'.-’i did not ot.ee exist, st ill, we
are satisfied, it will p-iv yet. We have
seen it fig : and out beautifully on paper,
that it w ; eh, , per to raise cotton to buy
meat, bn; we never knew a man that run
this schedule tin ough a long series of
yearn, that la’d up money. We, once
knew two biotlic: ■! who lived near to each ;
other, irei.i \ iih Auled about the samel
quality of lend. A always made an
ahuudam <■ of prm biious,and what cotton
he could; If, who, by the way, had the
advantage of A iu the force ho work
ed, insisted that his brother A was fool
ish, iu taking so much time in raising
provisions. He could cipher it out all
right on puper, tuid show that with his
Cotton crop, he could much bet ter afford
to buy provisions, than to raise them. It
all looked fair and plausable enough, but
mark the «'quel-. At the end of fifteen
years, A h:t 1 more than doubled bis prop
erty, and li was totally insolvent. But
meat, it is said, is frequently very low,
and cotton brings a good price, so the
old rule will not apply now. IL>w often
have you found meat very low V I’oßsi
blv, it mav be low occasionally, in the
northwest, when you are not buying,
but by the time summer comes, ajid the
freight and profits to middle nu n are
paid, how i .v of yon lu re complain of
low prices! An intelligent and success
ful planter told us the other day, lie had
rather raise bis ow n meat than buy it at
Ihrt c «•• >//<-■ per pound. Hits estimate was,
that by p r u go eund-peas, to' fatten
our hogs w i could raise meat as cheap
here nseiiv whore. He plautshisground
peas belw cii his rows of corn, which lie
says does,not dimiu'sh tlie yield of corn,
and increases the work very little, so that
his ground-pi as cost him almost nothing.
If we will p!aut oats, n° most of our far
mers in th s . IYu do.liogs, with very
little feed, will grow and thrive on an
oat pastui - until time to turn them on
the ground-pens. And then there are
the field p' as, and potatoes, all admira
bly adapted to this section, excellent food
for hogs, and raised at very lit tleexpcnse.
Hut we can refer to exempt sos recent
date, to sup] -rt our tlice y. We could
point ta.t ;udii duals in our county,
known to him i of our readers, who raise
their me its. md almost inva t iably, these
men an tl- • 0.-t prosperous and inde
pendent. If they do not have quite so
much it or ‘V in t! fall as some others,
vet what v onov toy have is their own,
and so ie< f it is apt to stick by them all
tin summer. Some men content them
selves by r.-ising • ough for their own
family. ; ml con ’ 1 V, us their hands will
have too.' so till r meat, they will buy
for them, and thus as they get-the same
or more for the’ provisions furnished,
than they have to give, that they loose
nothing. .Woll.ci course it is ln'ttAr to
raise that tilth'. than none at all, but is
it not best !<> be able to supply your
hands without buying V Lot to lose;
may satis ;, _\ -• -n e j ■ ople, but to lumi j
would b' irore satisfactory. While!
the pay for tl i.a at may come not out
of your r> k.t,! id out of the hand’s
portion of the crop, t : f he makes enough 1 ) •
still, the .u. y goes out of the country,
and is distributed, . me to the western
producer, si-me to the packer, some to
the railroads, some to (he commission
merchant, and pc;’, q -some to the re
tail merchants, and (-..me to pay high
rates of int--- -1, an 1 thus, as before re
marked, bowev.r chop bacort may be

by the time it »-• is to the consumer.—
Novr.jf the fir -••• w ■u , d raise las own
meat, it h ev'.' . * H; ihe sumo amount
of jreut t 1 ■iis t 1 ( .would go legiti
mated ii ' 'll ivj ; ket. It is just
as fair ci ’ • b!e way of making
money, c - otton, and then the
farm* • f •••-' f ■ : s.-.-ure and inde-
pendent when he 1 ; s his smokehouse in
his own yard, and not in Cincinnatti
or Louisville, and subject to so many
contingences, as to getting it where he
wants it. In all this, we have said noth
ing about the annoyance of stopping
teams, end sending to the depot, per
haps at the very time when you can’t
well spare tnem from the farm, and the
danger sometimes of disappointment and
the trouble necessarily incurred by mak
ing temporary arrangements, Ac., Ac.
Jsut, as before intimated, the mint ques
tion indirectly has much to do with the
labor question. How? Very few of our
lal iorersare able to furnish their provis- j
• ions, and they are therefore, to a great
extent, dependent upon their employer
to feed them, and the man. that has pro
visions, rarely finds much trouble in get.
ting hands. The man that has not pro
visions, and can’t get them, will not be
able to hire. Even the few negroes that,
may have provisions, are generally shy
of the farmer who wants to hire them,
and has not the money to buy w ith. But
(bis is not all, if you have provisions, 1
you generally get your labor with little
!or no money. Very few laborers save
| anything at the end of the year. Some
| a,re disposed to blame the farmer for
j this, but, generally speaking, the causes
{ are three-fold Ist, the extravagance of
the laborer; 2d, the high price of provis
ions, :M, their negligent cultivation of
their crops. For these things the farm
er is not to blame. 11l fact, lie is gener
ally disposed to remedy them, as far
is intbis power. If tin farmer, therefore,
is in a condition to supply the wants of
his hands from his smokehouse, and corn
crib, and these hands, either from ex
travagance or necessity, cat up their wages,
fit. matters not whether hired for part of
the crop, or for a certain sum,) it costs
him no actual cash. His cotton money
in so much clear, for he pays his laborers
with provisions raised on his farm. We
do not pretend that this is an additional
profit to that already alluded, by selling
j bis provisions to the laborer. It is the
name thing, presented in a different light.
In all this, there is no injustice done tl;.
laborer. He speed ; I,«» money any way,
and the. only difference is, the farmer
gets and keeps it himself, inst ead of pay
ing it. out to parties at a distance.
It will bo observed, that we have con
fined ourself entirely to the question
•of dollars and cents. Wo have said
nothing of the pleasure of having your
own meat, and of the glories of hog kill
ing time, of sp®e-ribs, back-bones, nau
sages, Ac., Ac. But the field opens too
wide for us to enter it at this time.
FEDERAL PROSECUTIONS.
The New Orleans Republican, the Rad
ical official organ of that city, and also
the official journal of the United States,”
lias been reading the Anti Rcpultiicans a
lecture on account, of Iheir want of grati
tude and appreciation of Gen. Grant’s
kindness iu “directing a nolle promtui to
be entered in certain cases pending for
allcdged violations of the law protecting
personal rights.” Well, we suppose they
ought to be thankful for small favors.
But if these defendant sought tobe thank
ful fornot bcingillcgally convicted, ought
not we all to be more thankful because
we have not been even illegally prosecu
ted ? With the machinery of the courts,
as run in sonic places the juries being
drawn to accomplish certain party pur
poses the officers of court being ap
pointed to effect certain ends, and ready
witnesses being easily found to prove any
desired fact, (so called) it is just as easy'
to convict one man as another, ortogain
one case ass another. Doubtless illustra
tions of this seeming rash assertion could
be found without leaving the city of New
Orleans.
But the editor could not close his arti
cle w ithout affiydiug evidence of the cor
ruption of Federal officials. Wo give a
quotation alluding to the Southern peo
ple:
“Many of the upper classes had,
through personal influence or by the
paid agency of the pardon broker, ob- j
taiued a remission of their disfranchise
ment.”
So there was a pardon broker, who, for
money, obtained a remission of their dis
franchisement. It will lie remembered
that this whole matter was iu the hands
of the Radicals, and the “upperclass,” by
paving the proper agents, could obtain
remission. The money of Ihe ‘‘upper close ’
and not merit was the “open sesame”
to Radical favor.
! But we give another quotation:
I “It will be noted, however, l y the poo
i pie that those who flaim to be their ten.
ders exhort- them into nets of discontent
and resistance to the federal government,
j that none of the richer classes are con
victed and imprisoned.” •
Why are “none of the, richer classes;
convicted and imprisoned r” What is
the difference between a rich criminal
and a poor one ? One has money and
the other has not, consequently, before a
i Radical louvt, none of the former are
! convicted and imprisoned. These ex
' tracts are from the official journal of the
, United States. The deductions are our
; own, but we leave it to any candid road
; er, if they are not fair and legitimate,
! and we might go further, and say, if
; they are not in accordance with the prac
' tiee frequently seen in the courts of the
United States, and also in State courts
where Radical officials exercise supreme
authority.
(SOUTHERN Hf hSPITALIT T.
So long as the South could exclude
the outsit! r> world on the bypoth., is that
the institution of Shivery would not ad
mit of a promiscuous immigration, the j
aristocratic. Mb-rail of that section wrote;
up in the highest colors, the hospitalities j
mid the !'a ntii'S of the inside South.!
Gilded palaces and broad spreading;
lawns and -hades w. re presented .to the j
fervid fancy of the innocent Northern i
render; but where a luckless adventurer ;
sought for these beauties, he did well if
he get away without a coat of tar and ,
feathers.
Tin* war changed all this, and devel- !
oped a stage of civilization a century be- ;
hind the times.
The above is from the Topeka Blade, a |
Radical paper, edited by one J. Clarke
Bwayjie, who achieved some reputation
in his line in the.city of Macon, a few
years ago. Swayze, if we are not greatly
mistaken, lived-in Griffin, Ga., before tlie
war, remaining South during the war,
doubtless pretending to be all right *<m
secession, and if the Confederacy had
succeeded in the fight, would, in-all prob- j
ability, been an ardent Confederate. Bu!
when the South was finally overcome I>y
the numerical strength and wealth of the
North and hired mercenaries, and was
helpless in the grasp of its relentless and
vindictive foes, true to bis yankee in
stincts, for greed of gain, Swayze started
a paper to tradnye and slander those wit b
whom he had lived, and put money in
his pocket by thus sewing the patron
age of the Radical Government. We
don’t know that *<• cvr roCvd any
“Southern hospitality.” Ho certainly |
deserved none. It is sufficient evidence, :
however, of "Southern forbearance that ;
t his creature was allowed to live among
us so many years, and finally “got, away j
without a coat of tar and IVat.lu
But Swayze says, "thewarhas changed j
all this anil developed a civilization a
century behind the times.’ Well, if the
conduct of the Radicals, who, to a great j
extent, have controlled most of t he Bout h- |
ern States sinit the war, is a specimen!
of Xaukee civilization, wo thaqk God
that wo were a century nohind the times.
Swayze right! Such old fogy file is os
iiOnost ofiii* holders a government run
for the protection and benefit of llm peo
ple, and not for the purjio.se ot plunder
and agrandisoment, of those in power,
must he a long wavs behind the advae. • and
ideas of yanked sharpers. No wonder
that, such men as Swayze are astonished
at the speetaclo. For men of sense, to
have had political power arid not have
used it for their individual profit, is to
tally incomprehensible to some people.
But Swayze has left in. Wo like him
better in Kansas than in Macon or Grif
fin, at)d if ho should taken, patriotic in - !
tion “to leave his country for Mu coun
try’s good,” and cmig ate with his ad
vanced civilization to the jungles of Al
rien, we think he would ho still more on- ;
durable. With some objects, "’Tis dis- j
lance leads enchantment to the view.”
A l‘hmiolof/iet in l.oirntl' .
We learn that a week or two agon
talented phrenologist stopped at our 1
neighboring town of Valdosta, and discov
ered that all tlie citizens thereof bad re
markable eraniologiral devel o prnent s. A s
hefolt of the various heads that were pre
sented for examination, lie found unmis
takable indications that this one, was in
tended for a profound lawyer, another
for an eloquent divine, another for a
brilliant statesman, then a renowned
General, "and so on through the whole j
list of celebrities. Os course our neigh
bors were highly pleased with their new
ly discovered greatness, and the phrenol
ogist, was equally as well delighted with
the liberality with which they exchanged
greenbacks, for bis very complimentary
delineations of their character. We were
’a, little uneasy for the fate of ValdoM.t,
lest our good friends there should stam
pede, for some large city, where their
newly discovered talents could find mote
space and opportunity for development.
We presume, however, most of them well
have to wait until they can recuperate
their finances, as the phrenologist seems
to have carried, off till their spare change.
The fellow appears not to have been sat
isfied with merely turning the town "up
side down,” but it seems, from a corres
pondent in the last Valdosta Times, that
lie basinvadcd'she country also, and there,
too, undreamed of greatness has been
discovered, and, as soon as known, Is
forsaken the ordinary paths hithcito
traveled, and brought confusion upon
the country, and trouble to Uncle Jopl in
Appleby. Can’t someone stop this dis
turber of the quiet of our country ?
Tin Potato Question in Thoninsrillc.
The Times, of week before last, was
bragging over a large potato that was
show n him, as Wing a splendid specimen
of tiie “Hati variety,” raised on Col. Sew
ard’s farm. The last, -EW< rprite says,!
however, it was not a Hati at all, “but, a ■
common wild potato, which was dug up 1
!bv the road hands, about the middle of
! last month, and lay by the road for more i
! than a week, undisturbed 1 y the passing
swine.” Ah ! Captain, we are afraid you j
have not much more discrimination in !
judging of potatoes than of babies. We
grant, however, in the matter of young
ladies, you have shown a keen apprecia
tion, and most excellent taste.

Oran yes--Patrons of Husbandry.
As we published a week or two ago a
long article in favor of the Patrons of
Husbandry, from Dr. J. P. Stephens, we j
this week by request, copy the following |
communication, from the South >rn T\ r <dch - j
man, rather on the other side of the
question. We do not pretend to be
posted as to all the objects of this newly ,
organized institution, or as to the means
to he used to effect the desired end. If :
the object be to counteract plans and !
combinations to practice extortion upon j
the planters, no reasonable man should
object to it. We think, however, the j
surest protection the farmers can have !
from laud shark:), is pi lie out of debt, i
have provisions at home, and cash in hi:; i
pocket. With these safeguards, he is
rather too independent to, suffer much !
imposition, either from tlie manufacturer ;
or the middlemen. We will s;«y this!
much for the order here, that thedcscriji- ;
tion of the “men who ought to join/’ the
Grange, as given by the correspondent;
of the Watchman, don’t fit the members
here, at, all. So far as our observation
goes, the Patrons of Husbandry here in
cludesomoof our most, sober, industrious,
energetic, and prosperous farmers. In j
fact., we have noticed that in other parts
of the state some of our best ne ” ::l “
connected with the inslitutmn. V\ c can .
imagine many dificultie# in the way ot j
its success, hut the future, must deter

Mr. Editor :— I see that an effort will
be made when the .State Agricultural ,So
ciety meet-': in Athens next mouth, to cs
tabfish one or more a ;socialion» with
these names in our county, and us some
inquiiv is made m- to what t.ticy are, un
what they propose to do, perhaps a few
ideas in relation to them muv not bo un
i. vrptuld •to your readers. The declared
object, of these Sw it sis too look after
the interest of the farming class of the
country. *A very large number ofiali
sorts of trades and on’.bags, merchants,
grogshop-keeper;;, lawyers, polities ns,
governin', ul (.ffleials, Ac., &e,§,e<‘ getting
ri. il, accumulating vast, properly, whilst
the poor farmers are getting poorer.—
Now, it. is time t int, a stop should !»• put
to this state of things. Th. grand qu ■ -
tion is how is this to be done "t The
Granges are going to solve that problem.
The Patrons of Husbandry will take it
ill hand, {fist, to nt,i,ko till the poor lend
rich and productive ; secondly, tocffnt.i ive
some plan to obtain large crops from the
lend without much labor ; thirdly, to got
high prices for all sorts of agricultural
products; fourthly, to buy everything
that they can’t make at homo OH the low -
est pos able t erms and Oh long credits ;
fifthly, to have their farm products cn -
! iled to the market for little or nothing.
I do not say that, these comprise all the
objects of the Bociel v, hut they may be

patriotic Patrons who devote their val-1

ciugly-demonstraie to the farmers how j
! rapidly thov call grow lieh’hv cultivating ;

Ac., but who themselves grow poorer
year by year. I say these gentlemen will
require some small salary of say three or
four thousand dollars, to enable them to
devote their whole time to the much
needeil obn. .* of I.i gislatures, Railroads
and col ion-buyers.
Then, if the Granges decree that the
price offered for cotton is too low, or the
Railroad fivights too high, the relnutei* i»
not allowed to sell his cotton, but must
have gome inoiu v to settle with his tner
chaut and Tax (Vulecior, and the com pa- ;
ny must needs advance him the nets Hull j
Mim. This alone would require a small.!
i'uud of say about twenty millions to |
draw upon. Now. if you ask lire ■ howl
this money is to be raised, I say, Mr. Ed- j
ilor, t hat is a question of your ow nasi. ing. l
and therefore you must mum it your- !
self.
I merely mention these small items to !
show that, these machines for rapidly ad-!
Vitneing the agi 'cultural prosperity of
the country cannot he run without a lit-1
tie nioni'v. Iu short, Air. Editor, that!
your ' :,n!ers may most clearly comp re.
; "bend the end a .id aim of the Granges and
Patrons of Husbandly, it is nothing more
or less than a proposition for an A-jrieul.
tural strike. The formers have been
working for nothing and finding them
selves and everybody else kmg enough,
and they don’t mean to do it any longer.
Ami if the manufacturers and cotton
buyers will not give them a good price
for their cotton, corn and wheat, and if;
the Railroads will not carry tlfese pr(>- !
j duets to market on exceedingly reason-;
! able terms, then they will quit raisings!
! them, and then what will you printers i
| and preachers and professors dor Or,!
! if having made cotton and wheat for mar
j ket, the Railroads refuse to take them
! at such charges as shall be satisfactory,
I then they will keep them in their g.n- '
j houses and barns,, and then what will I
: the Railroads do ?
The on I v original independent Patron
i of Husbandry 1 ever knew was old Bob j
Basher, who owned the plantation where !
Dr. Linton lives. A man noticing his year’s j
; crop of cotton piled up under his gin- !
| house late in the summer, asked him why
| he had not sold his cotton, was he waiting
i for a higher price ? "No,” said uncle
I Bob, ”1 am not thinking about the price,
| but lam not going to look after people
to buy my cotton ; if the people of Au
j gusta want my cotton they can come
after it, and by golly, it will stay where
j it is till they do.
Uncle Bob was as independent sn purse
as in mind. Unhappily the great major
ity of our planters are not in a condition
so fortunate, and hence the necessity of
effecting by combination what can not
always be done individually.
The Patrons say they will have nothing
to do with polities ; that, no lawyer or
politician shall he a member of their or
i gauization. Very wisely ' determined. —
i For if any class legislation is needed for
! their benefit, instead of making a public
fuss with lawyers and politicians, and
! Ihus get head and ears into politics, they J
f will quietly- elect one of their own men to
| procure the passage of the measure, and
| so of all State and county offices, they |
i will till with their own men, mid have
| nothing to do with politics. You see at !
once what a g» it bh-.-. ing !*at would j
| be.
Warm friend as you may suppose me
Ifr. ltd it or, I would not advise a man in
tolerably comfortable condition tocon
! lteet himself with a Grange. Men that
| arc always hurt! tq>, wbos- crops are al
ways in tlj■ uni- s, whose hired hands are
always leaving them, whose affairs are in !
great, confusion at the. dose of the year,
