THURSDAY, JUNE 5, 1873. GEORGIA CLOVER. Several years ago there was consider able interest manifested in a variety of clover ( Sespediia Striata —Georgia clo ver), which made its appearauco jest after the war in our State. It grows anywhere, and first made its appearance on the side of tho most worn roads, where all the soil had been washed away. Its appearance was greeted by many as a God send, to accomplish the won derful results that have followed the growing of clover throughout the North, West, and Southern States of Virginia and Maryland. Our agricultural papers were filled with accounts of the marvelous recupe ration of the laud iu the States above mentioned. The Commissioner of Ag riculture, Gen. Capeuox, published an accouut of the system followed by him, which restored worn out tobacco lauds to their virgin fertility ‘in the State of Maryland, and Jonathan Carter deli vered a lecture before the Agricultural Society of Virginia on the same subject, which was published. The anticipation that our variety of clover would j*rove as valuable to us as the variety grown in the North and West has to those States, furnished the sanguine agricultural writers with a glittering theme to discourse on. But, wlas, for their hopes—like every tiling ■else that promises success to Southern farmers, nothing of utility has resulted from the appearance of Sespediia. We liave never seen it attain any sizt—but neither have we seen volunteer of the varie'y of clover grown in Virginia any thing but a stunted plant, totally unfit for forage and sodding purpo-cs. It is possible that the same attention bestowed on our variety of clover might develop as valuable a crop as is their s. However, we did not intend to dis cus? Setprdiza with referenoe to either it hay or sodding value, but to call at tention to the fact that it will choice out Bermuda-grass, broom sedge, and, ' we believe, nut-grass. In the Court-house yard, iu Waynes boro’, the Bermuda grass is nearly-crad icated, aud we have had our attention called to a small patch of nut-grass that was invaded by Setpediza about a year *ince, with every appearance of gaining a complete victory over it. If we aro right in ou- observations and prognos tics this will be a God send, indeed. Persons who know nothing of nut-grass ennnotimagiue what a pest it is. Burke county farmers generally know, and it 10 not necessary to tell them that if it faina the night after it has been hoed, jit will need hoeing the next morning. ,and that it in impossible to get a stand cotton in a field infested with it. We bave seen it grow through an Irish po tato with a nut inside of the potato. Wo jiave beard that it will grow through a brick, but can’t vouch for that, Wp do not kqovr how to propagate Georgia clover, but honestly believo that in tbe future it is to bo of great benefit to us. t Preaching —The Rov Paul C. Morton will preach at the Presbyterian 4&urch on Sunday next, both morning (nd evoning. Thk recent rains have caused cotton crops to beoqroe very grassy. A farmer 6f nineteen yeafs (jxperieneo remarked fa our hearing, fie had never before seen as much giW the first of June, and that be did not often, in tbe grow ing season, pray for dry weather,but that nothing *MVoul4 h'tH now t “LADIES MEMORIAL ASSO CIATION.” At a meeting of the “Ladies Memorial As sociation" of Burke county, held April 28th, 1873, it was resolved to ask the ladies of the county to unite iu tho effort, by form ing iu their respective localities co-opera tive societies.

The frequent and distress ing irregularities peculiar to her sex have long been to her the “direful spring of woes unnum bered.” In the mnrfSlon of the rich and in the hovel of poverty alike woman has been the cod stant yet patient victim of a thousand ills un known to man—and these without a remedy.— “Oh, Lord, how long *” in the agony of her soul hath she cried But now the hour of her re demption is come ho will suffer no more, for Dr. J. Braiifiki.dls Female Regulator—Woman's Best Friend—is for sale by all respectable drug gists throughout tho land at $1.60 per bottle.— For sale iu Waynesboro’ by Wilkins A Cos. Commenting ou tho Mexican muss, the Now York Ihr aid thinks that it probably means another slice of territo ry, and remarks: “The old Roman fallacy of never ending annexations is not the policy for the United States. We must stop our mad c areer in this direction while yet we may, or wo shall soon be drifting headlong to confusion and dissolution. A confederation of independent repub lics is tho true American iudea of streugth and prosperity. We hope that President Grant, profiting by his St. Domingo experience, will be extremely cautious in pursuing the ignis fatmu of ‘manifest destiny’ into Mexico, drifting onward in that direction, wc shall in evitably become a discordant mixture of diverse elements, races, languages and institutions which cannot hold to gether.” Prince Edward’s Island has at length consented to join the Dominion of Can ada. The island is to have six repre sentatives in the Canadian Parliament, besides supporting the expensive and useless machinery of local government. The Colony held out long against the presturefor annexation, and it is under stood that some of the influences which proved so effective in Nova Scotia were brought to bear in Charlotte town. New foundland is still independent, but it is expected that she will soon follow the example of her sister island. Hn.vpriKLn’s Fjcmat.k Regulator. —Wo havo often road in the newspapers of tho grand success of medical compounds put up at the North and elsewhere. Many of those modioines have had their day, and we hear no more of thorn. Their proprietors have made fortunes, not so much from the curative powers and virtues of their mixtures, as from the notoriety given thorn by advertising, by whioh people were made to believe all tho good that was said of them. A preparation is now before tho public, which is beooming vory popular, and is known as Hraifield’s Female Regulator, put up by L. H. Rriultield, of Atlanta, Ga., at SI.BO per bottfo. Such is its curative virtuos that it has gamed wide-spread populari ty all over tho country whete it has bc-en made known, and it is being introduced everywhere. Wo are informod that immense quantities of this medicine aro being sold in all sections of the South and Southwest, especially in the city of New Orleans and in Texas. This much we say in justice to its proprietor, who is a gentleman of integrity, and who would not engage in the manufacture and salo of a humbug.— La Grange Reporter. Wit" H F.

A MODEL FARM AND FARMER. Ouo of the most successful planters in the State, and a resident of our own city, gavo tho writer some particulars concerning the management of his own planting interest in Southwest Georgia, which are reproduced for tho benefit of our readers : Tho plantation iu question embraces about 3,000 acres, of which 42,500 have boon cleared. The area under cultiva tion is as follows: Cotton 000 ncres, corn 400, oats 250 and potatoes 10. Fifty freedman. of whom fivo only are women, and thirty plows constitute the laboring force of the place. The operatives receive 40 cents per dictn nud rations, half of which sum is paid in quarterly instalments, and the remainder held over until the close of the year. In addition, one acre of land is cultivated by the proprietor for each freedman, and those who have stock of their own and families arc permitted to rent as much land as they can attend at the nominal figure of 60 pounds of seed cotton per acre. The terms of the contract require each laborer to bo in the field at sunrise and continue work under the direction of competent over seers until dusk, with two hours of rest at noon. Forty tons of commercial manures have been applied to the crops, and twenty tons of manipulated, manufac ur cd on the farm from ingredients fur nished by Messrs. Hunt, Rankin & Lamar. The bacon necessary to afford rations to the laborers amounted to 18,- 000 pounds, at an average cost of ten cents per pound. Of breadstuffs and stock feed very nearly sufficient was raised on the premises. For all this meat, guano, etc., the owner paid the cash down, and no crop lien ot any des cription hangs like the sword of Damas cus over his head. Ilis oat crop is beautiful, and enables him to sell seve ral thousands bushels of coru the en suing year; and with anything like a favorable season the cotton will pro - dnee 400 bates. This gentleman can laugh at hard times, and afford to raise corton at even ten cents per pound. Nor does he ex perience the least difficulty in procuring all the labor he needs on the terms above stated. Our farmers need nevev expect to thrive until they return to the system and bo content to regulate the size of their farm by tho means at their command. Pursuing this course, they will progress slowly but surely, and soon regain their former independence. As matters arc now conducted, however, with the ignis fatuus of big crops and big prices ever luring them on, tho prof its of middle men and exorbitant rates of interest to be met, and tho hazards of tempest, drought and worm to encoun ter, also, who can wonder that disap pointment, and bankruptcy so often over take tbe farmer ?
