Prt-venlloti of Il«st iu Cotton,
\V« ibelow the opinion of Dr. E M.
Pendleton, of Sparta, Georgia, on the above
subject, which we think should be consid
ered by the farmer, both in view of pre
venting rust in cotton nnd in restoring the
elements which have been taken fr< ni tbe
soil by planting the s.-.me crop year after
jfar. There is r.o feature connected with
farming that requires the study and atten
tion of the farmer, more than that of
restoring the exhausted Ti e nil.
like the human body, becomes exhausted of
its strength, and unless such exhaustion be
considered by the fanner his lands will soon
become worn out and useless. Plants are
incessantly consuming ammonia, water and
carbonic ac and. Just as the light of the sun,
in the economy of nature, in indeed highly
ftecepsary to tie heal h and growth of
plants, so too must the phint draw from the
soil neutr merit without which it cannot
grow and flourish. # The only ways of re
storing exhausted elements are by
rest, Icrtillizers and contributing vegetable
matter to the soil. ‘"By the gift of light, a
beneficient God has spread upon the face of
the earth organization feeling and thought.”
This source of nourishment does not con
cern us as to its becoming exhausted. The
atmosphere is furnished ammonia and nitric
acid fr< m wl ich plants get nitrogen, by the
action of the powerful electric sparks which
fl*-h firth in stormy clouds ; from volcanic
eruptions; from the flashing of the light
ning and from the fury of the tempest
ireelf. If there should be a dearth of these
elements in the atmosphere, it is not in the
ingenuity of man to supply them, but man
can reetore to a very great ex rent those
elements which have been taken away by
Buc«etsive crops. It in only by rotation of
crops and contributing vegetable matter to
the * il that in Europe a piece of land is
made to support five i.r ten men, where in
America it only supports one. Dr. Pendle
ton speaks ns follows;
Our plan to make humus, prevent rust
ard still gather a remunerative crop everv
year from the same land, is as follows;
Take a field, for instance, that has been
worn by repeated crops of cotton and ce
reals, hut still with fame productive capaci
ty. We plant in c >tt"n, applying a good
nitrn-nhosphate, at the the rate of two
hundred to three hundred pounds per acre.
It makes a very good crop, but shows un
mintakahle evidence of rust. We gather
the cotton, and put down in oats, any time
from November to February, broadcasting
with cotton seed as many as we have to
spare, and plowing in oats and cott<>n seed
together with a shovel. The heat produced
by the fermentation of tbe cotton seed keeps
the ground warm and protects the oate,
while in the sprout, from being killed by
the freezes. A good crop of oats is assured,
and the nitrogen of the cotton seed not ex
hausted, is spent upon a fine coating of
grass and weeds, which, together with the
oats stubble, forms a first-rate supply of
organic matter for cotton the next year.
The land lies in stubble for fifteen months
without being disturued by the plow, equal
to one year’s rest, and then comes the
nitre-phosphate w ith the cotton again. A
better yield is the result, with lei-s rust, if
any at all, and the cotton seed and oats
again (or wheat,) may be repeated, and
followed by the cotton without faar of rust,
1 ecanse the land in kept supplied with hu
mus by a rotation of crops.
I would not recommend this rotation for
every field in the farm, but only those which
would seem to require just such treatment.
Poorer fields might be allowed to rest until
brought in better heart, while those recently
cleared should be pushed in cotton and corn
for about four or five years, until the humus
has been partially exhausted.and a rotation
becomes necessary If there are no new
grounds a judicious system of rotation
might be instituted between corn, small
grams and cotton, which wou'd k°ep the
lands from rusting by insuring a sur-ply of
humus. When lands arc plentiful, one
year’s rest might be allowed with good re
sults. Such a system established and car
ried nut, w»'uld soon drive the rust from our
farms, and ciuse our denuded hill and
barren fields “to hb>«snm as the rose.”
A claim t r the refunding of tax collected
under the act of July 14. 1870, having been
allowed by the Commissioner of Internal
Revenue, and presented to the Secretary of
Treasury for his approval, the following
queries relative to the questions involved
and kindred subjects were submitted by the
Secretary to the Attorney General for his
opinion :
l<t. Is the tax on interest or coupons
paid on bonds or other evidences of debt
imposed by the fifteenth section of the
above- mentioned sot applicable to interest
paid subsequently to August 1, 1870, and
prior to January 1, 1871 ?
2d. Is the tax on dividends of earnings,
incomes, or gains imposed by the 6ame
section applicable to dividends declared
subsequently to August 1, 1870, and prior
to January 1, 1871 ?
3d Should officers and employees of the
United Statesand Senators, Representatives,
and Delegates in C ngress, from whose pay
or salary s tax of five per cent, per annum
has been withheld continuously since De
cent her 31, 1800. be required to include in
their income returns for 1870 the pay or
salary received by them during the last
five months of 1870, on which no tax has
been withheld ?
The Attorney General answers each of
these questions in the affirmative, and the
corporations and persons interested will
therefore be held to pnymen' of the t*'X.
The above decision ot the Attornev Gener
al fully sustains the ruling ol Deputy Com
missioner Douglass, made while he was
acting Commissioner, during the interval
alter the resignation of Commissioner De
lano, and which was revoked by Commis
sioner Pi en son ton immediately upon his
taking charge of the Internal Revenue
Bureau. It involves something like five
millions of dollars of internal revet ue,
which the Government would have Ins' h and
the , tiling 0 f >l,-. Pitasoatou been s tsuined.

“The Creed of Our Political Faith."
Wc bow at the same shrine and worship
the same spirit, the only true, preserving
and perpetuating creed of a Republican
government, with theNashvilD Union. With
a str ct adherence to the great nod immuta
bile principles laid down, our grand
txf erirußat of free government cannot fail.
Uovtatju* from them will usher us into thy
quioksanda and quagmires that now con
tain the wrecLjt of government* long
gone before \M We fully endorse the cre«T
of the Union nnd the sage cf M inticelM;
“Equal and exact justice to men, of

Governments in ull their rights as the most

Constitutional vigor, as the sheet-anchor of
of our peace at homo and safety abroad; a

under the protection of the habeas corpus;
and trial by juries impartially selected.
These are the essential principles of our
government, and those « hich ought to shape
i's administration. These firm the bright
constellation which has gone before us and
guided our steps through an age of revolu
tion and reformation. The wisdom of our
sages and blood of our heroes have been
devoted to theire attainment; they should
he tbe creed of our political faith, the text
of civic intrusion, the touchstone by which
to try the services of tho-e we trust; and
should we wander from them in moments
of error or alarm, let us hasten to retrace
our steps, and to regain the read which
alone leads to peace, liberty and safety.”
We have been quoting from the inaugural
address of President Jefferson, delivered
seventy years ago. Every word is as perti
nent to our times as though written only
yesterday. We are engaged in the same
struggle against the same centralizing fed
eralism, from which the country had just
emerged under the leadership of tbe sage of
Monticello. Let every father take this
“test of civic instruction” and teach it to
his tons.
Swedish Immigration to Georgia.
We tako the following from the Telegraph
and Me-senger of the 16rh inrt.:
A leading citizen of Jasper sends us the
following copy <>f a letter received from Mr.
John Foss, a Swede. now in Sweden as the
agent of the people of Ja-per and adjoining
counties, for procuring immigrants from
that country. Our correspondent says that
Mr. Foss has established a high character
for integrity, and his agent in Monticello.
to whom this letter is addressed, M-. N. B.
White, is one of the. most esterprising mer
chants of that place.
It will be seen that Mr. Foss reports his
countrymen very anxious to make engage
ments to come to Georgia. lie will bring
two hundred with him —has had five hun
dred applications to come, and would like
to bring a ♦housand immigrants ; and we
wish we had them.
There are no better people than the
Swedes. We think among European im
migrants employed in farm and domestic
service in the United States, they stand
every where about No. 1. as sober, industri
Otis faithful and trustworthy, and there is
no doubt that the great mass of these Swed
ish immigrants, starting from this humble
beginning, will, in a few years, rise to the
position of prosperous landholders and lorm
a highly valuable addition to the population
of Georgia. There is not a man or woman
among them who cannot read and write,
and few who may not fie called intelligent.
Well ground “and in childhood in all rudimen
tal moral, religious and literary knowledge,
and exceedingly frugal in theT habits, the
road to comparative wealth wilt be found
easy and their progress rapid. We wish
there were enough of the. e people in Geor
gia to-day to elevate the standard of lahor
by their and to create by some
small competition and appreciable value for
a wages engagement. It has none now.
and therefore we are withoot the smallest
means of enforcing reasonable service for
reasonable wages, unless the employee
chooses to give it. We append the copy of
the letter in question ;
Gotkborg. April 11, 1871.
Mr. N B. Wh>te, Monticello :
