Discovery of New Farms
Lwy ß have known for a long time
that a landholder owned ever so far
below the surface. But farmers never
seemed to suspect that their deeds gave
them any right- to more than about six
inches of the surface. Nobody hardly
has thought of looking deeper than that
except the diggers of gold and water.
We have all heard of the classics being
covered all over by the prosy homilies
of the monks of the middle ages; in
Consequence of which generations have
been content with the comparatively
wdkhless surface parchments, in igno
rance of the rish deposits beneath. Our
agriculturists have had a similar expe
rience, till now, when the sudsoil plow
is revealing to them treasures before un
known. Discoveries in the earth are
keeping pace now with those of the sky
and new earth is opened to the cultiva
tor as anew heaven is to the astrono
mer. The following conversation at the
Farmer's Club, cut from the New York
er brings some information of news:
Dr. Underhill—l omitted speaking of
another great source of phosphate of
lime, and that is one of whieh few far
mers have hit upon. I mean that part
of the farm which lies six inches deep
under the surface. There since the del
uge, lies undisturbed the fertilizer, usu
ally hard. Roots of the grains and an
nuals cannot penetrate it. There it is,
and has been accumulating for years,in
soluble, except when roots apply them
selves to it. Not one farmer in ten ev
er plows deeper than five inches. The
roots cannot got at the mine below—it
is too liai'd. He cannot afford to buy
guano or bone, but he can afford a sul>-
soil plow. Let him go down fifteen
inches into his good farm below, and he
may have anew farm good for fifteen
years to come.
I never thought until this year thst
my loose, sandy, gravelly land wanted
subsoiling ! It is so very loose that I can
almost wade in it But, nevertheless,
this year I have sub-soiled twelve or
fourteen inches deep, and my corn on
that tillage has given me a double crop.
I found the bottom of my very loose top
soil hard packed—the annual plants
could not pat their roots through it.
My double crop has succeeded in spite
of pretty severe drouth. I have many
years always ploughed to the depth from
eight to ten inches, but this season I
have resorted to the farm which lies un
der mint successfully.
Augusta has just been startled by a
decision from Judge Pottle that a con
tract between a man and woman before
witnesses constitutes legal marriage.
This is the law throughout the coun
try-
Partial repudiation is threatened in
Virginia, as well as Louisiana. It is
said that Qov. Kemper will soon send
to the Legislature of Virginia a propo
sition reducing all classes of present in
debtedness of the State to one, and is
sue bonds to cancel the same for fifty
per oemtum of their face, bearing six
per cent, interest, which would be equal
to three per cent upon the present debt
A commission will be proposed to rep
resent the facts to the -rediiors of the
State and compound the debts upon the
fot-going principals of adjustment.
Jewish Statistics. —There are about
7,000,000 Jews living in the world at
the present time. Their density is in
dependent of society, religion or gov
ernment There is 1 Jew to every 445
inhabitants in England, 1 in 486 in
France, 1 in 42 in Russia, 2 in 33 in
Austria, 1 in 105 in Germany, 1 in G 1
; in Turkey,and 1 in about 58 in Europe.
; There are probably 75,000 Jews in the
United /States, or one to every 500, of
whom between eight and nine thousand
are in Philadelphia, or 1 to every 100
inhabitahts.
The English manufacturers, seeing
the advantage of spinning and weaving
cotton as near the locality of produc
tion as possible, are establishing cotton
factories in India. They arc increasing
fast in the British possessions there.
We see it stated that the Bombay mills
alone employ ten thousand operatives
and work up fifteen hundred bales a
week. This is ahead of the manufac
turers in the /Southern /States. Can we
afford to let Tndia get the advantage of
us in the manufacture ef the staple ? It
will not only make permanent and ne
cessary the future of cotton there, but
it will enable the Hindoos to raise it
more cheaply by giving factory work to
their women and children.
A Mr. Dalim runs a large stove store
up at Eagle Harbor,and the Marquette
Journal says. “He must haVe an ex
tensivotrade.for we have heard his name
mentioned in connection with all the
stoves and stovepipe we ever put to
gether here or elsewhere.’
According to the Norcross Advance
there was a large crystallized stone
found on Mr. S. Shabburn's plantation,
in Forsyth county, a few days ago. It
weighed four and one-lourth pounds,has
nineteen small pieces of steel the size of
fine knitting needles riming some of
them through the ontire rock.
A country paper exclaims “Lives
there a man with a soul so dead, who
never to himself has said, I’ll pay be
fore I go to bed, the debt I owe to the
printer ? Yes, there are some we know
full well, who never such a tale could
tell, but they, I fear, will go too well
the place where there’s no winter.”

Confiscation in South Carolina.—
The Union Timex prints tho tax rece
ipts for taxes upon 800 acres of land
near Jonesville in that comity. They
make the following exhibit:
Taxes on 800 acres of 1and,1867. 8 7 83
Taxes on 800 acres of land,lß6B. G3 00
Taxes on 800 acres of 1and,1873. 11 780
Thus,says the Charlestion Courier,
the taxes on one piece of property in
Union conpty were increased eight-fold
during the first two, years of Radical
rule in this State,and fifteeen-fold dur
ing the six years of its corrunt domina
tion. The property upon which the
above taxes were paid has not enhanced
in value one dollar—in fact,the build
ings and fences are not as good as they
were in 18G7.
“Blue Hen's Chickens.” —Almost eve
rybody knows that citizens of Delaware
are often called in cant term“ Blue Hens
Chickens,"but there are few persons
perhaps who know the. origin of the
phrase. The Philadelphia Bulletin
gives the following :
A certain Capt. Caldwell,an officer of
the Fist Deleware regiment in the war
of the revolution,was greatly disting
uished for his daring and undaunted
spirit. He was exceedingly popular in
the regiment,and its high state of dis
cipline was g- norally conceded to be
due to his exertions. Caldwell was ex
tremely fond of cock-fighting and he
kept a large number of game fowls fro
the purpose. When the officers of the
regiment were sent upon recruiting ser
vice to enlist new men to fill vacancies
caused by death or otherwise,it was a
saying that they had gone home for
more of Caldwells game cocks. Cald
well had a theory that no cock|could be
truly game unless the mother was a
blue hen,and so the name of “Blue Hon
Chickens”wftß at last given to the regi
ment,and finally to the people of the
State, of Delaware.
Oua Imports from Great Britian.—
One of the most hoperul signs of an im
proving financial conditions in the coun
try is the decline of imported luxuries.
According to the report of the Bureau
of Statistics there was a considerable
falling off in the importation of the
principal articles of British manufac
ture for the year 1873 as compared with
the previous year, and particularly dur
ing the last months of 1873. Take cot
ton piece goods, for example, and we
find that in 1872 131,617,336 years were
imported, while in 1873 the number of
yards was 109,500,345. No we might go
through the list of imported articles
and find a corresponding reduction.
Iron, however, is specially worthy of
mention. In 1872 there were 467,304
tons of railroad iron, 64,553 tons af bar,
angle, bolt rod iron and 195,151 tons
of pig iron imported, while in 1873 the
amount was—railroad ir0n,185,702 tons;
pig iron, 102,624 tons, and bur and oth
er kinds of iron, 23*006 tons. This is a
difference of over $20,000,000 in iron
alone. If we can cotinue to reduce our
imports and increase our exports the
exchanges will be more in our favor,and
this would be more to bring down the
premium on gold and carry us to a
specie basis than all the proposed legis
lrtion of Congress.— X. Y, Herald.

The Puhlio Crisis in Spain.— The
Spanish Cortes has beqn dissolved by a
ministerial decree, which was issued in
Madrid yesterday. The government
promises that elections for anew legis
lature will be held as soon us order is
restored anil (lie citizen franchise ren
dered equally free in the country. Ser
auo thus condones tho Pavia <imp and,
to a certain extent, accepts the posi
tion as head pacificator as the leadrr in
war against all Spanish political extrem
ists. Carlisra appeal's to lie very ac
tive. Don Carlos and General Elio have,
wo are assured .entered Santona at the
heard of a considerable force- Bilbao
is completely surrounded by Carlist
troops,and tho royalists are preparing
to give battle to the republicans. It
looks as if flic dull monotony of the
Spanish political system were about to
be relieved and something decisive in
the line of fixed government attempted.
— N. Y.Hrrald.
Disruption of Parties. —The Now
York Herald reproduces the remark of
the President in liis late message to
Congress,that “political partisanship
has almost ceased to exist,especially in
the agricultural regions,” and adds
that“timo place and circumstances con
sul ered,this is a very significent hint
from a Republican President to a Re
publican Congress. It has some-thing
of the ring or a declaration of inde
pendence from General Grant,or of a
warning that lie must no longer be ex
pected blindy to conduct his adminis
tration in ilie interest of the Republican
party.when ‘poli ical partisanship lias
f. lrnost ceascp to exist among the peo.
pie.”
Chicago Tribune : A year ago the
credit of Georgia was gone. Governor
Bullock uiid Henry Clews & Cos., had
slaughtered it between them. Now the
State had just negotiated a loan of sl,-
200,000 at par. The cost of negotiation
was less than 1 per cent. Geogia is now
ruled by her own citizens. The /States
that repudiate are ruled by carpet-bcg

of Federal power. This system may
