Gt&ton.
The increase of acreage of cotton, as
indicated by the returns of county cor
respondents, averages 12 per cent., and
• aggregates'nearly a million of acres.
It is almost literally true that ‘the
people are devoting all their energies
to the culture of cotton.’- The condi-
{j.op of the crop is so far favorable for
a good yield—fully and average in
Georgia, Alabama. Louisiana, and Ar
kansas; slightly belowan average in
the Carolina?, Florida, Mississippi,
Texas, and Tennessee. North Caro
lino had a surplus of rain in June,
which in places has occasioned injury,
especially in the counties of Martin,
Carteret, Edgecomb, Hen ford. Beau
fort, Greens, Bo wan, and Meck'pn-
burg. : ’ The plant is late and small in
parts of ; South Carolina, but thrifty,
growing" rapidly in ' recent favorable
weather.' To defective seed or drought
in planting'-time, a' bad stand is attri-
‘buted in many places, and growth has
been retarded by excessive ram.
ppavy rains in Georgia have done
some damage. In Clay ton and Span!
ding Counties fields have been badly
infested with lice, which threaten fail
ure in sorne jnjjianc.es. To the influ
ence of commercial fertilizers is attri
buted the promising appearance of the
plant in many fields. In Alabama the
crop is generally flourishing, though
'local reports are quite variable. Com
plaint of iinurjes ' from hflil pr rain
■storms are reported in Dallas, 5/Iacon,
and Etowah, and from lice in Sumter
•and Randolph. While the crop is re
ported as backward in some counties,
it is ‘two weeks in advace of last sea
son’in Conecuh. In Mississippi heavy
rains and cool nights have proved un
favorable in the counties of Neshoba
Washington, De Soto, 4 Yalabusha, and
La Fayette. Lice are reported in. D
Soto and La Fayette. Heavy r,
more favorable fo? the growth of gras:
than of cotton, and obstructive of elea
culture, have been injurious in Arkan
sas. In the Red River region of Tex
as cotton is generally flourishing, with
some injury ' from lice.
Neither the caterpillar nor boll-worm
has appeared, and there are few draw
backs which a few weeks of favorabl
weather cannot repair. With an aver
-age season the present acreage should
give nearly three and a half millions
of bales; with one of the extraordina
ry length of the last, the product \\ oul
? be little short of four millions—whicl
was of so remarkable a character for
continued growth and late picking that
-our October estimate, a reasonable one
a the time, of 2,700,000 bales, was
rdvanced at the close of the season to
3,000,000.— Patent office Report for
July.

Sam’s Confession.
More than two huudred and fifty
years ago two boys, name l Samuel and
John, robbed the orchard of a man
named Goodman Jude, of a lot ofmel
low pears. The fruit was sweet to
their .taste, bat itflecame bitter in their
hearts the next Sunday when they
heard a Mr. Ward preach about Zac-
cheus. -Among other things this
•preacher said:
, ‘Let no one expect pardon of God
of the wrong done to another’s estate,
except he make fall restitution to the
•wronged person, if it may be possibly
done.’ ■
■ These words wentinto Samuel'sheart
like a swift arrow. He could not sleep
the next night through fear of being
punished by the all-seting God for
stealing,the pears. On Monday morn
inghe rose early, ran to John’s house,
and said:
,Jack, I’m sorry I robbed old Jude
I’m going to confess to him, and to car
ry him twelve pence as restitution for
the three-penny-worth of pears I
stole.’ .
‘Pooh! you musdnt dp that. Sam,’
replied John. ‘Old Jude, will tell our
inaster if you do, and we shall get well
whipped.’
v ‘Q, I must teijhim!’ rejoined Sam.
'God will never forgive me if I do not
make restitution.’
< ‘You talk like a fool, Sam,’said John
gngrily. ‘Gjod will forgive us ten
•times sooner than old Jude will forgive
u$ once.’
iI don’t believe that,’replied Sam
uel; ‘and whether old Jude forgives me
or not I’m going to do my duty.’
Away ran Samuel to Goodman Jude.
The old man received him coldly‘ but
kindly; heard his confession, smiled,
forgave him, but refused the proffered
shilling. Sam found, as all penitents
do, that doing right was notsuch aterri
fele thing as it seemed to be.
Still the boy was not satisfied. He
had sinned against God as we l as man.
He therefore wept to God as a lost sin
iier, sought mercy through Jesus
Christ, and soon found peace, and joy,
and heavenly love. Sam afterward
became the Rev. Samuel Faircloth, an
eminent minister of the Gospel.
What tb uk you of Samuel, my
children ? I do not mean of his steal
ing. .Iam sure you all pronounce that
wrong; even if done in an orchard.
Isn’t .A orchard-robbing one of the
meanest-kinds of stealing? But what
think you of his going to Mr. Jude,
and offering to make a restitution.-? I
think it was manly and Qpristian.
What do you think?
Did my reader ever steal ? Did he
ever rob an orchard ? Did he ever
rob his father or mother? If so, let
him go back to the beginning of this
story, and read what Mr. Ward said
about the folly of expecting God to par
don sncKYw sTn unTesf Vgl'tftatjb'ff'

The Little Chimney Sweep.
In London, May 1st, 17—, the Count
ess of- Ilelyille and her son, -eleven,
years of age, were sittiug in a magmfi
cent saloon, at the head of a long ta
ble , around her table, filled with cake,
sugarplums, etc., fifty little sweeps
were scale *, with clean hands at.d faces,
and with joyful hearts, singing,
‘Sweep he! sweep ho!
Frond the hettcya. to the top.’
Some years before, Lady Belville
had a son about five years old. She-
prayed that God'would touch his heart,
and that he,might be ^converted. The
more she prayed arid the" more pains
she took, the less he seemed-to regard
her. He was idle, disobedient and
wilful. When the Bible was read to
him he became weary. When she re
qmred him to repeal his morning
prayers, he said he wanted his break
fast first—ip the eyening lie was too
sleepy, and wanted to go to bed. He
had no d>site to be more wise, no wish
to ask God to teach him, and his moth
er neyer could be satisfied that he evet
prayed from the heart In the hope ol
encouraging him, she comOQSejf sum
prayers for hjm io recite every night,
but he woulj never learn but one ol
then;.’
‘Lord, convert qie; change my heart,
teach me to love Thee, and to love my
brethren as Jesus Christ loves us.
Amen.’
She weeped much, prayed more, but
did no; c r.- c. him. Emboldened to
disobedience he became very wicked.
Seeing that he changed not, she began
lo doubt the promise of God. It seem
ed that the promise failed, ‘Call ’upon
m-yand I will answer.’
■ One day, while she was plunged in
grief, a servant came to tell her, that
for an hour they had soughL for him
without* finding hini w ; that the Outer
gate had been kept fast—that all the
morning he had been in the garden.
No person could give any news of
him, servants §ought the streets of the
city—notipes were sent lo the authori
ties^, published in the papers, and larg e
rewards off’e.etf. Twenty different
pagje within a few days to tell
dren—but qpnp was satisfacto
ry-
Qne was seen going away in coach,
oue in the streets asking for his mother,
near the bank of the river, etc. • She
had reason te> believe that lie was
drowsed, and had .been picked up and
buried.
Bhe concluded to raise a tombstone
oyfer-hjis grave, Rnd pray God to console
her. She tried to persuade hersell
that he had not been so wicked—to
remember some one time when he
seemed to have uttered the prayer she
taught him, from his heart, but, alas
her remembra ce was only of his dis
obedience, impatience and weariness
during prayer She caused to be sculp
lured upon a tomb a young child
kneeling, and had iuspribed upon the
black marble the prayer, ‘Lord, con
vert rue; change rr|y heart;’
etc.
Three years passed away. Everv
fo child his age she rr.et she examined
with care, but found newusnt.j, her son.
One da V, returning from the coun
try, unexpected by her servant, she
saw with surprise, on entering the sa
loon, a little sweep Ipgning against the
jamb. IJe was very sorrowful; and in
spite of the soot might be seen his
white'skin and extreme thinness. His
head rested upon his breast; the pool
child was weeping, and large tears
were rolling down his cheeks, leaving
white traces upon his black face.
‘What is the matter, child?’said the
Countess.
Nothing, madam—it is nothing; we
are come to sweep your chimney.
My master is on the roof—he is com
ing down.’ %
‘Why do you weep?’
‘It is because,^trying to regtariq his
tears, ‘it is because-——,’ *
‘Take courage, my boy, tell me your
troubles.’
‘It is because my master will beat
me again.’
‘Again, you say j does he beat you
often ?’
‘Alificst every day, madam.
‘And for what?’
‘Because I don’t earn money enough.
When I teturn at night, after having
cried out all day wjthogL having obtain
ed any work, be says I have been idle;
but I assure you, madam, it is Dot my
fault. I cry out as loufi as Jj can, and
nobody calls me. I can’t force people
to let me sweep their chimneys.’
‘But then, eVery day cjoes not pass
without work, and then your master
dou’t whip you?,
‘Then he. says to me that.I do not
climb fast enough—do not scrape hard
enough: and when I come down he
strikes me again, and all the time I do
all I can. More than once I have run
the risk of falling; yesterday I hurt
my leg ; and you see madam,' my pant
aloons are worn through at the knees,’
and he wept bitterly.
‘Bur, then, when you work better?’
aid the Countess.
‘Oh ! when I woik better he is con
tent to scold me.’
‘And how much do you gain each
day ?’
‘Nothing—only he gives me my food;
but so little that! often go to bed hun
gry-’
‘Ah ! well, I will speak to thy mas
ter.’
.‘No, madam—he. will beat-me inore,
yet I eomp'ain to nobody, but in'' the
evening to .’
‘To whom?’
‘To God.’
‘4nd what do yoq say to. him ?’
‘I ask him to take me tac^t to
mother. 1
‘You have a rqother, then ?,’
‘Yes ! and a very good mother. If
could go to her I should not be so un
'PPJ-’
'Do you know where she lives?’
‘No; I recollect only one house—
one garden. Madam, it was like this.
The trees of the garden were seen
through the windows, as you see tliose
poplars in front. The chimney was on
jth'e'rfght, h’aridTike* this';'lifer door in-
front; at d my mother .was like yon,
ouly shc was handsome, and not dress
ed irl black aS ydir are.! i .
Shivering t^rougb^her frame, her
hands trembled—she could scarcely
stand on her feel. Sinking on - a sofa,
she took him by the hAriel, continuing
the con ven ation.
‘And has tfie Lord ever answered
you, my child ?’
‘Not yet, madam, but He will hear
tile-one day. 1 am sure.’
‘Sore, anil why?’
‘Because lie said si; in his Word.’
A ou haveconfidence then, in prayer?’
.. ‘Yes, madam ; because I have already
hee?i hoard.’
‘Li what ?’
‘1 have asked G> d to make me better,
and it seetns to me that I am not so
bad as formerly. Now 1 do almost ail
that my master tells me. When 1 can,
I lead a little in the New Testament
which a good gentleman gave me; and
f p'tiy every day with pleasure.’
‘With pleasure, do you say ?’
‘Yes, with pleasure; above all, when
I repeat that prayer my m,other taught
me by heart.’
‘Ami what is that prayer ? tell me, I
bc.-eech you V
‘I’ng phiid kneeled down, j mnod his.
hands, and shedding some tears, said,
in a trembling voice:
‘ford, convert Tf(C ; change my heart-,
teach me lo lave llffe, and to lore my
brethren us Jesus Christ loves us. Amen.'
‘My child! my child I’ cried the
Countess, pressing the bov in her arms;
th >u art my son, Charles!’
•My mother,’said the child, 'w here
is she? It was thus that she used to
call—Charles ! Ctiatles!’
V am thy mother,!, tell you.’ And
sobs-stopped i he voice of mother and
aud child. They both wept, but they
were tears of joy. The mothu kneel
id by the side of her child, and ex
claimed in the fullness of heart: ‘My
God! my God ! forgive me for having
offended thee by unbelief; pardon me
for having doubted thy prbniis s; for
give me for impatience. I have p ayed
lor his cun verst -d, but I was ui\\f tiling
to wait, and yet thou hast heard me,
and answered my prayer. Teach me,
O Lord, to eo fide in thee; teach me tc
remember that thou hearest always,
but if thou deferest to answer, it is in
order, to biess the bettet ; bin if thou
dost iio.t.as we wqqld wish, it is because
thy ways arc not as ur ways, and thou
kndwest better tbait we what fo,r out
good. Henceforth Isay, t thy \yiil,
not mine, be Jone.’

Tliis won<1 erfnl vegetable
restorative is the sheet-
anchor of the feeble and
debilitated. As a tonic and
cordial for the aged and
languid it has no equal
among stomachics. As a
remedy for the nervous
weakness to which women
nre especially subject, it is
superseding every other
stimulant. In all climates,
tropical, temperate or
frigid, it acts as a specific
in every species of disorder
which undermines the
bodily strength and breaks
down the animal spirits.
Wherever it is intro
duced it becomes a stand-
ard article — a medicinal
staple. It is to-day the
best and purest tonic, and
the most popular medicine
in the civilized world—bo
sure and get the genuine.

From this time Charles was the joy
of his mother; and she, to perpelunie
the event in iris histori, 'assembled
every year, on the 1st ot May, a laig -
number of sweeps of Ins age, to give
iheni an entertainment, and io relaie
the history of Cinaries, to teaph them
that God always hears our pravers, and
answers them ; but oltentiines in a uian-
ner that we do not expect.
A Sunbeam.—Tie great e -t tj jihys -
ca! pa-adoxes is the saubeatq It is
the most potent and versatile forge we
have, and yet it fit hayes itself like the
gentlest and most accommodating.’
Nothing can full more s >ftiy am| more
silently uptni the earth than (.fie taysof
our great i'unjinRry—not even tliefeaih
ery flakes of snow; which thread their
way tUrouglj the atmosphere as if they
were top filmy v« yield to the demands
of gravity like grosser things. The
mo«t delicate slip of gold leaf, expos
ed as a target to the sun’s shafts, is not
stirred to the extent of a hair, though
an infapt’s fainLest breath would set in
ti tremulous motion’ i he tendcre.-t
of human orgat s—the app'e of the
eye—though pierced and buffeted each
day by thousand of sunbeams, suffers
no pain duting the process, but rejoices
in their sweetness, and blesses the use
ful light.
Yet a few of those rays, insinuating
themselves into a mass of iron like
Britania Tubular Bridge, wil! compel
the closely knit particles to separate
and will move the whole enormous fa
bric with as much ease as a giant would
stir a straw. The play of those beams
upon our sheets of water lift up layer
after layer into the atmostphere, and
hoist whole rivers from their be$s on
ly to drop them again in« snows upon
the hills, or in fattening showers upou
the plains. Let buf thtTair d' ink in a
little more sunshine at one place than
another, ^nd o^tt o( ^ springs the tem
pest aqd the hurricane which desolates
a whole region in ^ts lunatic wrath.
The marvel is tfi^t a power which is
capable of assuming such a diversity
of forms, and of producing such stu
pendous results should come to ug in
so gentle, so peaceful a guise !
Cumulative Voting.—Under the
new constitution of Illinois three mem
bers of the lower branch of the Cjen-
eral Assembly are allotted to each
Senatorial district. In voting for these
each voter has the privilege of casting
his ballot for three individuals, or he
c(in cast three votes for one individual,
or cast two votes for one man and one
vote for another. This is an entirely
new. idea and has been invented to se
cure top representation of the minority.
Whether it will answer this purpose
remains to be tried-—Atlanta Constitu

It is Purely Vegetable.
‘‘The Life of the Flesh is the Blood.»?
This being the fact, it is very obvious that
when the blood becomes corrupted the
whole system becomes corvuptalso. To relieve
this, the true policy undoubtedly is to direct
the remedy to the sou'rcp.of the disease. It is
in this manner that Dll. TUTT’S SA HSAFA-

Its specific effect is on the blood: it purifies it,
vitalizes it, and expels all distemper from the
system.
Being free from violent Minerals, it is adapt
ed to general use. The old ai d young may
use it; the most delicate female, at any time,
may take it; the weak and enfeebled will be
strengthened by it; the tender infant, who
may have inherited disease, will be cured by

Ayer’s Sarsaparilla,
^OB rafi BLGOJL
The reputation thisex-
ceilent medicine enjny.«,
is derived from its cures
jnany of which are truly
marvellous. Inveterate
cases of Scrofulous dis
ease, where tiie v systeru
seemed saturated* with
corruption, have been
purified and cured by it.
Scrofulous affections and
disorders,which wereag-j
giavated by tiie scrofu
lous contamination, until
they were painfully afflicting, have been radically
cured in such great numbers in almost every sec
tion of the country, thaVtbe public scarcely need to
be informed ol* its virtues or uses.
Scrofulous poison is one of the most destructive
enemies of our race. Often, this unseen and imfelf'
tenant of theorganism undermines the con sti in both
and invites the attack of enfeebling or fatal diseases,
without exciting a suspicion of its ]»resence. Again,
it seems to breed infection throughout the body, and
then, on some favorable occasion, rapidly develop
into one or other of its hideous forms, either on the
surface or among the vitals. In the latter, tuber
cles may be suddenly deposited in the lungs or
heart, or tumors formed in the liver, or it shows
its presence by eruptions on the skin, or foul ulcer:
ations on some part ol* the body. Hence tiie occa
sional use of a bottle of this Sarsaparilla is ad
visable, even when no active symptoms of disease
appear. Persons afflicted with the following com
plaints generally* find immediate' relief, and, at
length, cure, by ^l* \his SJiR SA PA liIL
EA: St. Anthony's Eire, Bose or Erysipelas*
Tetter,'Salt Jihettm, Scald Head, Bingirorvh
Sore Eyes, Sore Ears, and other eruptions or
visible forms of Scrofulous disease. Also in the
more concealed forms, as Dyspepsia. Dropsy*
Heart Disease, Pits, Epilepsy. yettrtdyat*
and the various' Ulcerous affections of the muscu
lar and neryoiis Systems.
Syph itis or Venereal and Mercurial Diseases
arc cured by it, though a long time is required tor
subduing these obstinate maladies bv any medicine.
But long continued use of this medicine will cure
the complaint. leucorriteea or Whites. I 'tenne
Ulcerations, and Ectnale Diseases, are com
monly soon relieved and ultimately cured by its
purifying and invigorating effect. Minute Direc
tions for each case are found in our Almanac, sup
plied. gratis. Rheum atism and Coat, "hen
caused l>y accumulations of extraneous matters
ip the blood, yield quickly to it. as also *; ie -
Complaints, Torpidity. Congestion or Jupainj
motion of the Lirer. and Jaundice, when
as they often do, from the rankling poisons m uig
blood. This SARSAPARILLA is a great re
storer for the strength and vigor of the system*
Those who are Languid and Listless, Despon
dent, Sleepless, and troubled with yerrons Ap
prehensions or Tears, or anv of the affections
symptomatic of Weakness, will find immediate
relief and convincing evidence of its restorative
power upon trial.
