Ax no subject is attracting more atten tion at tl.is time than farming, so in no department of industry ar<> more rapid chan taking place. Not in all sections are feb» unproved methods fining ready acceptance, but they are in the greater number. In our own St ate, and partic u'arlv in the more densely settled parts, t ii» change is seen to be making rapid progress,year by year. Nothing is full er of good c heer for the future —nothing 1 lore certainly assures us of the ultimate prosperity of our agricultural popula tion, and per consequence, of the State. It is related that uu irngiish farmer, y ars ago, ivas the possessor of 1,000 I"res of land and three marriageable ujghtcr*. He managed to let it be 1 now ii that whoever would marry the i dost should receive with her 250 acres of his land. It waa not long before the 1m l and girl were disposed of, and the parent was still more blessed in finding t hat the yield from his remaining acres txeeodod the sum of what he had form erly received from the entire 1,000. He therefore circulated the same report in regard to his second,and finally in regard to the third and last, with a similar re sult in each instance; and was rewarded 1 y having a larger increase from the 250 acres left to him after the third child was married than ho had made from the 1000. Some of our farmers, however, con tend thai this system will not do for our climate or our soil. The facts do not sustain this view, but rather provo that intensive farming is more remunerative here than in a colder climate. In our own town on little more than one-half a re of ground over 30 bushels of corn h ve been made at Thomasvillo on one acre something over 70 bushels i as produced; a farmer near Valdosta is r> ported as making one baleVif cotton to ech aero planted this year, and as hav ing done the same year by year for some t nu-past. These are only specimens of v’hat has been done in the principle crops ol’ our section. Oats, potatoes, cane and other things have been made to yield similarly large quantities from small pieces of ground. All this goes to provo that a proper management, will insure a levy large compensation for the time t.u<i labor consumed iu farming. This properly introduces another im portant. tboug.it to which the attention of our farmers may he wisely directed at t iis time- that is, the surplus capital 1 icy have invested in land which is not i aly useless but more than useless to tiicin. How much of this capital there no one would imagine until he begins to nil it. a moment. Every farmer com plains of his poverty, and yet. he is real ly poor only in having 100 much land, brooks is blessed in being a white man’s county. The number of large planta tions worked by freeduicn .is compara tively small. Our farmers are generally of the class denominated small farmers. (We hope it. will always remain so.) Hut hardly one even of these but what owns more bin 1 than he lias any use for. He lias a large part of his capital thus bound up and rendered useless to him, thouirh ho feels the need of its aid at almost, ev ery move he makes in agriculture. Reflect lor a moment. Suppose that surplus was loaned out at reasonable interest and upon good security f It would be pay ing turn something every year; or invest i and n city or State bonds would be pay ing interest every six months. The taxes upon dead capital would thus be avoided ami the capital would he rendered posi tively active. Suppose, again, that in stead of lending or investing as indicat ed, this surplus were used in the proper i uitivation of what land he now careless ly manages, the increased income would probably astonish the mau himself. One bundled acres is considered a small tract ii laud to own, and yet, perhaps, the larg er part of our fanners are not really able to own and properly cultivate that small amount. Someone has written a book entitled “Ti n acres enough,” and an a satire upon the present system of farm ing another author has written a similar v.iirk with the title slightly changed: *" ton acres too u.u It.” An Englishman moved into one of the poorest otthe mul ti ■ comities of tins State a few vears'ago end tv.shed to buy 50 acres of land. So small a tract couid not be found, but at last he found 80 acres, which he 1 ought, ;ad nnuied.ateiy ottered 30 for sale. On t c- 50 remaining acres he has lived since i.uJ managed to have a large income from -'s various products. On three aces near a city of a neighboring State SISUO t.oith cl “stuff” was raised iu one year, lucent!y cur attention has been called to an instance of the unwise investment of Roney iu this way. A gentleman bought a trad of land for Slot) and alter own ing it for several years rold it tor S4O. If tlie money thus invested bad been loaned out and the .merest compounded year by year for the t.nie that it was invested in this land, it would have amounted to several hundred dollars; as it was, instead or increasing, it decreased in value. We v< old t ies- i ur already too kng'by talk with oor friends m me country by coun seling tin m to get their dead capital out of their land, ii possib.c, and put it to. t t.k. t /truth of ,t/»•*.

It is but prop r, therefore, should indulge the feeling of which arises at the announcement '9|| death of his widow. And yet j feeling of relief, too, that she is no loflßd cr subjected to the indignities which | constantly presented by the power j bad overcome the armies of her husbancß | Mrs. Lee was a fine example of the truel | Southern lady, with all the strength and] j beauty of character which attaches to the true woman everywhere, without any of I that masculinity which always so deforms the symmetry of that character. It is enough to sav that she was a worthy companion of her distinguished husband. For her own virtues, therefore, wc will 1 cherish her memory, and also because she was the wife of him whom we loved so well. The .State Fair. That the State Fair was a grand success there can be no doubt. Ail the newspa pers agree in that. Wo merely propose to add that those of our citizens who at tended were not only pleased with the exhibition, but were delighted with the quiet and orderly manner in which every thing was conducted, (there being no rowdy-ism, drunkness or profanity,) also with the cordiality and hospitality shown by the citizens of Macs n. Wo hope the Fair will be permanently located at Ma con. It is there eentially located, the Fair grounds can’t bo beat, the expense incurred is very great, and if it’s a fixture the arrangements will he more perfect every year. But if it is to he a traveling institution it cannot be of much perma nent advantage to any place. What is gained one year is lost the next, and by the second year much of the work has to be done over again. This year Macon has accomplished wonders, but her ad ministrative talent and energy are not ex hausted she is progressive, (live her a chance, and next year she will improve on her already splendid achievement, ctonaia mays —Col. Thos.W. Manghrnm, of Macon is dead. Lee Smith, who was convicted for mur dering his wife in Webster county was was hung on last Friday, upon the gal lows erected for the execution of Spann and Susan Eberhart last Spring. - The Atlanta Herald says that a re porter of that paper lias been informed by Governor Smith that the correspond ence between himself and ex-Governor Johnson is still going on, newspaper re ports to the contrary nowithstanding. —The semi-annual convention of the Georgia Press Association, which was to have met at Columbus on the 12th inst., by request of several members of the As sociation, has been postponed until the 13tli of December. —Col. Wm. C. Redding died at hisres idence near Colaparolu e, Monroe county, last Thursday night. —-Columbus Sun:— Our cotton manu factories continue to run on full time, ex cept the Muscogee, which has reduced its working hours one quarter. They are st ill reeeiviiur orders and making col lections. The Eagle and Phenix, our lar gest establishment, is getting along prosperously for the season. Where the agents cannot get money in payment of notes, they take cotton hence the com pany has received more of the staple than usual, which passed not through the warehouses, anil the Columbus re ceipts are swelled that much.— Macon 'FeUyraph : A Good Showing rim the Pi.ai.ters. We hoard something yesterday that re flects great credit upon the planters of this section, and which we think deserves public mention. At one of the banks of this city their drafts to the amount of $90,000 matured on the 4th instant, all of which, except $2,500, was promptly met. On the 6th instant arrangements for the satisfactory settlement of that balance was made, and the account fully squared. This report is from only one bank. We understand that an equally good one comes from all the others. We congratulate the planters and the conn - try upon it. In these pinching times such a record is certainly a prond on-\ There is immense vitality in the land yet —we may rest assured of that. - Hawinsvillc THsquHck: Times at Cochran—The Circus Gives a Free Show, The Great East ern Circus, which left here Saturday night, baited at Cochran long enough for some of its members to break open and rob two or three stores, the owners of which put up a right good-tight on the occasion. They broke open thi stories of Mr. Lorenzo Sermons and Cap tain A. W. Weaver, and then tried to whip these gentlemen for not allowing them to take what they wanted without paying therefor. They bruised Sermons considerably, but he in turn, bruised some of them, and it is said pretty badly. It is reported that two or three of them were arrested and confined iu the guar-1 house. While Marshal Davis had one under arrest another stole Davis’ watch. A son of Mr. Sanies MeGrifi seeing the theft, undertook to take the scoundrel iu charge, but was oveipowered. Altogeth er it was a high-hauiled outrage, and it is fortunate for the rascals that the citizens . of Cochran were not up at that hour, or j much blood would have been shed. This sort of show was uot announced on the j b.Ls. /,, (‘miii.'ii N i'iiii,/ 1 iiininis fikl -'i’l : - 1 ' Wh ' 'f' ' •' ng tin Si-hi.l •.

Our sapient Commissioner, in his a: ti de nub judice, asseverates as follows ; “No teacher, whether licensed or not, lias the right to teach with a view of col lecting his pay or any part thereof from the Public School Fund, until a written contract is made between himself and the Board.” I have this to say, Messrs Editors, in reply to the above declaration, which only adds “insult to injury,” so far as I and other teachers are concerned who have failed to obtain a written contract from the Board : Teachers, licenses (thelaw states) “shall be good for one, two o three years, ac cording to its grade, and shall entitle the holders to be employed as teachers in any of thesohools of the county whore issued,’’ Ac. (See See. 20 of the Act from which we have already quoted.) “And be it further enacted (Sec. 21.), that the County Commissioner shall have power, and it shall be his duty, to revoke licenses gran ted by him or his predecessors,” Ac., Ac. I hold a license, Messrs. Editors, which entitles me to bo employed as teacher in any of tlie schools of Brooks county un til August, 1874, unless sooner revoked. My license has not hem revoked (at I have not been made aware of its revo cation), and I have boon teaching “bene ficiaries of the county,” or of the public school f'- nd (if the Commissioner pleases) the greater part of this year, 1373. The Chairman of the Board has assured me, again and again, that I would be entitled to each child’s pro rata, whether it at tended school the first, second, third or fourth quarter of the year. The Com missioner himself promised to visit my school and enter into a written contract with me for the last quarter of the year. \\*hy did he not comply with that prom ise, if he considered it absolutely necessa ry for me to have a written contract in order to enable 111 c to draw pay from the public school fund ? I presented to him and to she Chairman a certificate fromtbe Trustees of my school, re, coin mending me to their favorable consideration as “a competent, efficient and worthy teacher,” j —stating that I had been teaching in that neighborhood, and I had given uni versal satisfaction to the patrons of my school 9 and, finally, expressing the hope that 1 would be assigned by them to the position of preceptor in the public school soou to be establishsd iu that vicinity. If I have not a written contract whose fault is it ? I have made frequent ap-, plications for a contract and failed to se cure one either from wanton neglect or unpardonable perversity in the school Commissioners of the comity to gtaUt my request Must Ibe denied iny hard earned wages iu consequence of this mal fearance in office ? A negative response finds an emphatic echo in every Lonest breast. But again : Admitting that the Com missioner’s declaration is legally correct, under existing circumstances, what appli cation has it to accounts rendered in by teachers in conformity with the school j law of 1870 and’7l ? Such declaration or law would be ex put facto in its opera tion, and therefore unconstitutional and inadmissible. Section 45 of the then ex isting school law reads as follows : “ And be it further enacted, That noth ing contained in this Act shall prevent the collection of any accounts rendered I from a private school, or the teacher there’of, for the education of beneficiaries of the common school fund, in localities where the common school may not have been organized: Provided, that such ac- II counts shall have been first duly audited Kv the Board whose duty it is to audit accounts.” Iqul have been tea'diing the greater MtSiS 1 of this year locality where the . ooMinon school been organized” on , account, of the or refusal of the !

In conclusion, Messrs. Ed»rs, allow mo to call the attention of ird to an important item of law to wit,-. The public school fund of the county should Ik: (the law says, shall be) disb used to the several sub-districts iu proportion to the number of children between school ages (6 to 18,) residing in each of said sub-districts, Ac. (See Sec. 22 of the “Ait for perfecting the Common School System,” Ac.) Finally, Messrs. Editors, allow mo to state furthermore, that a copy of the Banner containing th,- Cornuil; .doner's [ rebutter to my former hill of indictment, was not received soon enough to enable ! me to write out and hand in this my ■mr i rehvtUr in time to secure it an insertion in the previous number of your valuable paper: hence the unavoidable delay thereby, and “and further deponent saith not.’’ Respectfully, > “Brooks.” P. 3. The law nmkel it the duty of | the Grand Jury to investigate the record j of the Board of Ijducation, and I would particularly enjoin upon them the impor tance and necessity of ascertaining from said Board what moneys have been re ceived and disbursed by them, Ac., Ac., with full particulars as to the when’s anil where's, the why's and wherefore’s, ei cetera. B, I’. S. No. 2. Excuse errors, Messrs. Editors, fori have written in great haste, by a lightwooil-knot fire, at that (the poor j man’s kerosene lamp, both ante and }.od i the financial panic,) extemporizing my knee for a table neither dotting my i’s, nor crossing my t’s, nor even “minding my p's and q's”—for all of which said sins of omission and commission I shall expect to receive (as I certainly deserve) the printer’s devil's manifold maledic tions. B. The A'cjct Chief Justice. The New ioak Herald has been inter viewing several prominent lawyers for some time past, relative to the appoint ment of*a Ghiif Justice of he Supreme Court of the United States, to take the place of the late 8. P. Chase. Judge Freedman was recently interviewed by a reporter of that paper, and he expressed the following opinion : Reporter U nat names suggest them selvis to you for the office ul Jus tice f Judge Freedman—My choice would certauuy be Charles* O couor, who is a lawyer iu the widest and tannest accep tation of the term. Nine-teuths ol tue lawyers of this city would make h-.m Uieir selection, it called upou.

Ex-Gov. Brown has erected a beautiful and costly monument to his sou Franklin Fierce in own, recently deceased. The great loss sustained by the death of this excellent and promising youth may be inferred from a remark made concerning him by lion. A. H.

CUFI EE ON HIS DIONJ - t— V.'aN KD 'JO Eat at the Table Vs ith White Folks. —About tea days since three darkey:;, Small, Hamilton and Green, the former a so-ea'led ‘Senator,’ and the latter “Rep resentatives” in the South Carolina Leg islature, arrived at Yemassee, the junc-! tion of the Port Royal and Savannah and Charleston Kailiroads, from Charles ton. Whilst waiting there, these three eminent roosters pranced into the eating saloon of A. E. Owens, and with the pom posity which they considered became their exalted positions, called for dinner. As Mr. Owens is n»t running an estab lishment on mixed principles,he politely : requested thqofctinguighcd strangers to i pass out retire sotk some more con genial hash house, where they would be more at home—in brief, to vamoose to j other quarters. The cnidits hash hunters i became indignant and, to Uu- an old saw, “cut off tlieir nosi to s]»:te tt.cjr faces,” by refusing to travel to am f. ; . r house,! where they could get aecumnoilation, and retired from the seem with fury in i their hearts and nothingin their stonaebs. ! The result of this was that the able trio | appeared before R. K. Carle-ton, a trial j justice at Port Koval and charged Mr.; Owens with a violation of the civil right; bill, claiming that they had gone into 1 Owen’s saloon and asked for dinner and that he had refused to serve them on account of their color. Poor hoys! Mr. 1 Owens was arrested and carried before the justice on Mondy last. He waived ; an examination and was bound over to the next, term of the court in three, cases, : in the sum of s£oo each.—Sav. News, i The St . Louis Globe, a Repulliean or gan, says: “We l ave, the lu st authority I for saving that, at a very early stags of i the approehing session of Congress, one. ; of the Connecticut Senators will intordu-e j a hill to wind up tl, ■ national banks, redeoem their currency and issue green backs instead.
