THETHOMASTON HERALD. J. C. McfIUICH.VKL 6t M. C. CABAMSS, earn** amd raomnrmiM. GA~7mAY 20,1871. The THOMASTOJf HERALD tlfca a Large Circrlaticn In TTpvori, Pike, rA lwrthir, Talbot, Spalding, Monroe, and Rntt«. ' 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. — Patriot. “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 whatsoever state or persuatb n, religious or political; pence, commerce nnd honest friendship withal! nations, entangling alli ences with none; the support of the State Governments in ull their rights as the most competent administrations of our domestic concerns, and the surest bulwarks against anti-republican tendencies; th** preservation of the General Government in its whole Constitutional vigor, as the sheet-anchor of of our peace at homo and safety abroad; a jealous care of the t ight of election by the people, a mild and safe corrective of abuses which are lopped by the sword of revolution where peaceable remedies are unprovided} absolute acquiescence in the decision of the majority, the vital principle of republics, from which there is rm appeal but to force, the vital principle and immediate parent of despotism; a well disciplined militia, our best reliance in peace, nnd for the first mo ments in war till regulars may relieve; the supremacy of the civil order over the mili tary authority; economy in the public ex pense, that labor may ne lightly burdened; the honest payment of our debts and sacred preservation of tbe pubi c faith; encourage ment of agriculture, at and of commerce as its handmaid; the «. iffusinn o informati n, and arraignment of all abuses at the bar of the public reason; freedom of religion; fretdom of the press; and freedom of the person, 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 : Dear Sir—l have been in Goteborg a week, und have beeD to different places. I can get as many servants or laborers here in Sweden as the Georgia people will send for. I think I have had five hundred ap plications already from yourg men and women.

Nothing shall he undone on my port. If I live and keep iny health I hope to carry many poor Swede* to Amen ca.

New Orleans, May 13.—Vincent Bix* onna and Peter Ahnel were hanged at eleven o’clock to-diy fi»r killing sailor about a year ago, and robbing him of twelve dollars, nnd throwing his Indy in the river. Both men behaved with coolness to the last After the religious rites they were pinioned, when Baxonna steeped on the scaffold. He looked at the crowed and ejaculated Cara go, and spat upon thengt. The execution took piece in the parish prison yard. A large crowd gathered around the fv.iaoti. The Spanish, English. Belgian and Frehch Consuls petitioned the Governor to commute the sentence to imprisonment for life, hut acting Governor Dunn declined doing so. Washington, May 15--The Court of Claims adjourns Thursday to November.

Distentions within the walls con tinue. An order has been issued from the Prus sian War Department recalling the royal guards from France.

The opposition have elected a President and Vice- President, of Congress. Romero’s impeachment is progressing be fore Congress. Romero is making a strong defense Impeachment is improbable;* Three steamers with troops have Irfr; Vem* Cruz to quell the insurrection at Tampico. The Senate in secret session passed res* olutions directing Messrs White and Rams dale, correspondents of the New York Tri bune, to be arrested and brought to the btr of the Senate to an-wer for a contempt in refusing to answer from whom they obtained and whether they paid for a copy of the Treaty of Washington, which they procur ed and caused to be published last Thurs day in that pap r. These, gentlemen in their testimony before a select committee on the subject tast night, explicitly declared that they did not obtain the copy either from a Senator or any officer of that body. The Senate was in executive session all. day. I lie nominations to-day were Nicholas Fish, of New York, Assistant Secretary of Legation at Berlin ; Goo. A.

Versailles, May 16—In the Assembly a motion to declare the Republic perman ent was referred to a committee. . . Prayers are ordered io all the churches for cessation of civil war. Grevier was re-elected President of the , Assembly. Among the many scathing opinions on the recent Ku-klux Bill we find non#~ more pointed and truthful than that of Dr. S unechein. editor of the St. Louis Warhie. He speaks as follows : It is done. The first half-bashful and half audacious attempt has been made in' shake the edifice of American popular gov ernment to its vt-ry foundations. The ditch is commenced which will certainly beuofne the grave of the liberty of this country and of the best Constitution that ever was, if thi attempt should not be cheoked by the insight or the superior of the peo ple. Had we not read it every day for weeks in black and white, one might take it to be a had dream. Senators and llepreseniatives. appointed as guardians of our libertDs, have de.iheraied many days and nights h-w they might invest the President, the chief guar dian of the rights of the people, with impe rial po*er.
