Advice to Planters.
Tbe Augusta Constitutionalist alluding
V> tlte uj^weaching agricultural season giv
es thb following advice .to planters in re
gard to tie choice of crops: • ’
It is to be hoped that cotton planters will
at! be betrayed by the present low prices
cf cottas a»d their want of money to. com
mit the folly of planting a larger crop than
usual in order' to make up the required
sum by increased quantity. Increase of
production ! ut aggravates the evils under
which the planters suffer; for too many
atrain all their energies to make Cotton to
tie neglect comparatively of snpplies of
provisions and other articles which .every
plantation needs, and of- which a surplus
oen always find a ready market. Ibis. is
especially true now, for while cotton is
unusually low, almost every other article
usually made on a cotton plantation is un
usually high and likely to remain so. Corn
especially bears a very high , price, with
no prospect of • abatement. The home
oonsumptidn cannot-diminish, while the
demand for export is all the time increasing
Corn is now a regular article of shipment
to Europe where it is yearly coming more
Into use. This country will also continue
to have a large market abroad for all the
flour bacon beef and every other'trauspo
table article of food.
Let not the prospect of an early peace
deceive the planter into the belief that
prices of Cotton will. necessarily in that
•vent greatly rise’ or prices of provisions
grately fall. Though the war should ter
minate to-morrow it would be a long ri me
before a material change could be effected
iu the causes now regulating prices.
To diminish the production of Cotton
and. raise an increased quantity of provis
ions would at all events be a safe policy.
Preparing I.and for Corn.
As tbe time for planting this most im
portant crop is rapidly approaching a few
hints on the proper preparation of the soil
may not be inappropriate. The warfare
now raging in Europe with the excessive
drouths we have had in' the last few years
the certainty Of an increased .demand . at
high figures all combine to draw from every
farmer increased attention to this subject
In making preparations for a new crop of
eorn we would suggest to our readers that
they cannot commence that they cannot
commence their operations too soon nor
push them them too fast when they do
commence. The first grand prerequisite
necessary is a team and plow not a mere
excuse bv which with hard pushing the
land mayi ossibly be scratched to the depth
of three or four inches, but a plow that
will not only break your land but breau it
thoroughly. Land that is only hall broken
will never more than halt produce under
the best system of tillage . of a seasonable
year, while the product ot such laud, ot a
dry season, is certainly anything buteuci u
aging. It is to the interest of every plantei
that his corn land be deep and thorough
ly broken. Not. a furrow ever saould he
rjan short of a depth of ten inches while
•ven fourteen inches would not be too
much. The advantages of deep plowing
are so many and so plain to be seen that
we deem it useless to dwell upon them at
length. Corn growing upon land broken ten
or fourteen inches deep derives a greater
benefit in any seasou by being better able
to expand its roots to a larger extent o

Proof Reading.
Some of our correspondent* complain
(and we are forced to-admit with a good
deal of justice) of the numerous mistakes
in their communications, advertisements,
Ac. Now the printer must bear all the
blame, and the Editor must be supposed
to know what a writer indites whether'
written plainly or not. An M. D. will use
some of the technicalities of his profession
with the same confidence of being under
stood as if writing to a professional brother,
or for-a .medical journal. A lawyer will,
in like manner, (exeept with a worse chi-
rography,) quote Law Latin in the same
handwrite that he prepares his bill or de
claration, that no body but himself or a
brother chip is to read. A merchant will
write you hia fancy dress goods and em
broideries, in modern french dress, with
much the same hand that he makes his
orders upon his professional brother iq
New York. The printer is presumed to
he familliar with the te hnicalities and pe
culiar phraseology of all these and many
more callings and professions. A bold
presumption that, a supposition not war
ranted by the facts. Now so'~ far as out
paper is concerned, by much -the larger
portion of our correspondence domes in
manuscript from a distance, there is no
chance therefore to have the writers them
selves read the proof. Agd if they did,
they would/be often surprised at the errors
they'themselves overlook.' If you wish
your communication to appear well be su,re
and write it plainly—especeially that which
is technical or peculiar—dot your i’s and
and cross your t-’/a, distinguish between m’s
n’s, and u’s, and always be upon your p’s
and q’s when you write. There is three
times the labor attending the getting out a
correct sheet for the public eye than what
the uninitiated suppose. The writer has
never yet had an article of much length
to appear free from errors, the proof of
which he did not himself read. And too
often even then, though installed in the
sanctum at the time when first impressions
are taken. A good proof reader is hard
to find. It is a mere mechanical work
with him, he is looking at words, not
thoughts, he is not caught by a pretty fan
cy/or a novel idea, that some witching
writer h is sprung up. He reads,—con
densed deductions of pecuniary reconsider
ations with the same unmoved gravity that
goose listens to a mellow horn on the
lake at twilight. Or to the last Horrible
Tragedy, or the Latest from Sebastopol,
(more anxious how it is to be spelled than
when it is to be taken,) with as much sang
froid as the butcher does his work at. the
, o slaughter pen. < He is a rare^.bird.^ AJas

A “ Knight of Jericho," discourses
on this wise to his young friend, the Edi
tor of the Temperance Banner. The Edi
tor must be pleased- with' such a corres
pondent, who flanks his communication
with seven new subscribers. W» thank
;hitn for his endorsement of the Georgian,
and tender him an opportunity to endorse
the Banner in our columns^ Flankers
not objected to- They are,—as the mer
chants say—“ an article of prime necessi
ty” to the columns of. a newspaper, as to
the columns of auarmy on-the march in
an enemies’ country.
Mr. Editor—I seldom feel disposed to
write, nor do I now know that I have any
thing of great importance to say to yon,
unless yon should deem the enclosed names
of seven new subscribers to your invalua
ble paper, the Temperance Banner of some
importance.
For want of time and opportunity,
have made but little effort to procure sub
scribers, but intend to make- an effort as, I
feel when working for a Temperance paper,
and especially for the good .old Banner,
that I am nofconly working for the Editor,
as many good brothers may think, but for
" ^ mankind}' 1 ^
They, the people, regard his plan as the services rendered 1 her, and the latter es-
purest kind of old foggy “ tom foolery” teerasdi as a complimentary tribute to your

the people are nojtready? Why ^.“public
opinion so immature in Georgia ?' Is it ;be-
cause the people are too dishonest ? If so,
Mr. Member, say so. Or is it because they
have no. sense ? I do not know what sort
of people “ A Member” keeps company
with; hut I do know him to be a very poor
expositor of tbe opkaoua of my associates.
If by “public opinion” is meant the
opinions of the great mass of Ike people,
I say it has imposed-no obstacle in the way
of prohibition far years: but if we are to
understand that public opinion only Eves
among a few offioe hunters, thpn, surely,
public opinion is not ready for a nrohibi-

There is in tbe'town- of Shawanguirk,
Ulster county. N. Y-, on the premises of
John Bruyh, Esq., a cherry tree of such
aise, beauty, and productiveness, as cannot
perhaps, be excelled m our country. This
tree measures thirteen feet in circumference
around the trunk, immediately under the
limbs, and fifty feet across the extreme
point of one limb to that of another im
mediately opposite.' It cannot be less than
forty five feet in height. It is in full
bearing and is estimated to produce a wag
gon load of fruit in one season.

balls entered embrasures as if cast by the
band. One ball went into the very mouth
of a cannon, but was too large to penetrate
more thank third. It however, stuck fast.
The gun was carried to the General s tent
to be shown to him.” Another relates
that “’an eight-inche gun had just been
loaded with a live shell, and the. match
was applied to fire it off. At the nvnqeut
one or the enemy’s shell’s entered the gun,
and, the two shells exploding, hurst the

A Significant Sign—Mark Well.
Among other presentments of the Grand
Jury of Chatham County, which tell a-
gainst the retail and grog shop business, we
copy the following as significant of the
course which old Chatham is likely to pur
sue in the coming canvass. “ As goes
Chatham so goes the State,” wm once the
Jubilant note of partisan victories, boom
ing upfromthe “city Oglethorpe,” like the
roar of cannon. Let other Grand Juries
throughout the State follow up in like man
ner in the coming spring session. They
are composed mainly of the-bone and sin
ew of the counties morally and intelleotu-
tdly. Their, influence will be felt Espc
cially do wc hope "that the voice of old
Washington will be heard. Our last Grand
Jury signalized themselves by their
prompt and unanimous action against it.—
Let the/next do likewise.
“ advancing the cause ,
as well as “ Humanity, Temperance ahd
Charity,” which is only carrying out our
principles—the great cause of reform—
and “ proving tq the world our faith and
sincerity in tne great object we profess to
have in viewj” not only by -all honorable
means to prevent, but by legal prohibition,
to abolish the accursed liquor traffic.—
This is the last motion placed* before the
people, and will be taken up and voted up
on at our next fall election by the people
at large. , -
AIT are ready to acknowledge that it is
only through the, medium of-the Press that
the minds of the people of Georgia are to
be thoroughly prepared for this great ques
tion. If thia be true, I c would ask the
friends of Temperance and good order, if
it is not time for work. I fur.one think it
is. Do you think so ? If so, are you ready?
Methiuks I hear a response, “ We are.”—
Then let us go to work, altogether; and let
every man who is in favor of abolishing
the liquor traffic, be not only a working
man at home in this noble and holy cause,
but for the world by acting as Agent for
any and every paper that will devote a col
umn to the Temperance Cause—hut espe
cially to promote the interest and wide cir
culation of the Temperance Banner and
the Central Georgian. Should we see
that one or both of these papers are lodg
ed in every family in the State, take my
word for it, that at tbe next Gubernatorial
election, when the greit battle of Te uper-
ancc and Reform shall be fought at the bal
lot box, Victory will perch upon our Stand
ard.
I have now written more than I expect
cd when I commenced, hut in conclusion
I must remind you, my young brother, of
the high ard responsible position you now
occupy in our ranks. “ Your difficulties no
doubt will be many, hut perseverance will
accomplish much,” and if .faithful to your
duties as “seutiuel upon the watchtower,
your end will be most glorious.” Keep a
good lpok out for -the hreoxe.

[COMMUNICATED.]
Mr. ’ EditorIn , your paper of the
8th inst, I find an article of the real old
foggy school, by one who profosses to be a
member of the majority of the last Tem
perance Convention. I acknowledge his
right to be one of that majority; and I
certainly accord to him the right to be ah
old foggy, if he has a fancy for it. “ A
Member”*can employ himself, if he choos
es, in making war upon the prohibitionists
who are to hold their Convention in Atlan
ta on the 22d, and thereby contribute his
might to the overthrow of Georgia’s best
and last hope in reference, to the abomina
tions of the liquor traffic ; but if He sup
poses life can stop the storm, now gather
ing over the enemies of all good, He has
succeeded in deceiving himself beyond our
accounting for. In a. large portiAn of tRo
State there is already an excitement in fa
vor of the coming Convention and its ob
jects worthy of the glorious cau*?e so near
the hearts of every true patriot. He ad
vocates the silly doctrine of the Athens
Convention, which proposed to leave the
whole thing with the -Inferior Cogrt—
South Carolina has been bedevilled with
this very inferior plan of leaving it with
the inferior Courts for ffiany a long and
drunken year. . I am sorry that any Geor
gian,. mueh leas a Georgia State Conven
tion, should try to introduce that system
into.Georgia. It was taught by some ten
derfooted office huntera, two yoars ago,
that the Inferior Courts already Had the
control of- the subject. That humbug was
exploded by a decision of the Supreme
Court, thus sweeping away at one stroke,
the last weapon with which the enemies of
the Temperance reform, could fight prohi
bition. Now the- policy is to procure i.
weapon with which to renew the contest,
and-this “ Member” of the. Temperance
Convention is in favor of it. Well: won-
defe have not ceased. When will they ?
Echo answers, when!
“ A Member ” pretends to think that
the people of old Georgia are not ready
for prohibition, but they are ready for his
Court plan. Now he and I think widely
different. The reverse of his notion is
true. They are ready and anxious to vote
for prohibition} huf not for his plan.
utter a voice of their own. There is n
one State in the Union that ever did or
ever will vote for the liquor traffic. ~ It has
been voted down by the people, in some
form or other,, in Seventeen States and one
Territory, without a single failure, office
hunters swearing all the time that they
were"in advance of 11 public ' Opinion.''•'-y
In every instance, it turned Qttfc, just as it
will in Georgia : they were in advance of
the opinion of a few tenderfooted old fog-
gies, who wished to be on the strong side,
but could not appreciate the honesty and
intelligence of the people. Your corres
pondent discusses the reasons of the last
Legislature. This is decidedly rich.'—
Why, he ought to know that the greater
portion of that distinguished body, left

When Col. J. H. Hook of the'committee

‘‘ Presented to.Capt. Henry C. Lang,by
the Justices of .the lnferior Cpurt of

The Spirit Level, was inscribed with the
name “ H. C, Lang.” ,
In presenting these tokens of the coun
ty’s gratitude
Col. llook said— :
Capt. Lang—On the nigkt of the 21st
November last, when our town suffered to
some extent by fire, aud all the public
buildings of the county (in close proximity
to which the fire ocourrod,) and indeed the
entire business part of this place, were in
iminent danger of total destruction, You
with a noble and unselfish daring and en
ergy, worthy of all praise, ascended the
court house alone, and there, almost parch
ed.by the flames aud suffocated by the
smoke, successfully contended with the
fearful element which had already com
menced its work of annihilation upon the
very roof where you stood. Thus secur
ing to the county, this building with all its
valuable public records, ras well as all the
most thickly settled part of the town,
which, if the court house had b? en burn,
cd, must have shared its fate. Such man.
ly and praiseworthy eonduct could not
escape the speoial notice of the Justices of
the Iqferier court of the county, who are
the legally constituted guardians of its
public interests. And accordingly at a
recont session of that court for county
purposes, an order was passed and spread
upon its minutes, appointing Dr- William
son, -Cob Evans and myself a committee
on behalf of-the citizens qf old. Wash
ington to select and present to you a
suitable, testimonial of the county’s grat
itude for, and high appreciation of, your
valuable and heroic services on the oc
casion referred to. In pursuance of the
duty assigned us, we have selected, and
now beg leave to present to you, for your

they what they may, in checking the
progress of the devouring element. Com
munities like ours, composed of the vari
ous professions which ws follow for • liveli
hood, are dependant upon eaoh other for
support and protection j and when we live
up to! the Golden Role, of doing unto oth
ers as we would they should dofuoto us, it
is easy for us to provide, protect and prc«
serve our common interests. Our various
professions, fit us for the discharge of our
various duties; for instance, I being a me
chanic, and in the habit of rearing super
structures, and one who assisted in putting
the roof 0* this very building In which we
have. now assembled, was perhaps better-
qualified to climb to its top, and there dis
charge my duty ts z citizen, than one less
accustomed to such work. I doubt not
on the night when this house was threaten
ed with distraction, that I appeared to
those on the ground unaccustomed to such
work to he in great danger, climbing to
where the fire had already commenced its.
kindling; but feeling anxious, I felt safe,
and felt it to be my duty. Being so suc
cessful with the prompt assistance of those
below in confining the flames to where they
had already commenced, I felt amply com
pensated for HI that I had done, and re
joiced that it was no worse. And now
gentleman of the committee, and to thes
honorable court through you, I will say, I
accept with great pride the beautiful Silver
Pitcher and the useful Spirit Level, as
tokens of your unmerited kinduoa,—^with
a desire to remain useful whenever and
wherever my services may be required.
The following resolution was then offer
