their stomachs had room, then take a

“it just raises ’em up!” The citixen

some very fat, but greatly indisposed,
rats in his yard and dispatched them.

“A NATIONAL NECESSITT.”
Who Will ■Urn T
Yesterday the publishers of the Tele-
oraph receivod an envelope enclosing a
circular signed by William EL Thaw, of
Philadelphia. Also an argument head-
ed " Protective Tariff a National Necessi
ty ”—two copies of a memorial to Con
gress, by the "undersigned business men
of ths city of Macon,” protesting against
the revision of the present tariff, and a
request to put them in the bands of our
Postmaster for signatures. This request
shall be complied with; but thero was
one other which we must refuse, and it
was this: “Will you not,” (srics Mr.
Thaw,) “raise your potential voice against
a revision of the tariff at this timer”
No, Mr. Thaw, wo can’t do that 1 If it
would do any good we might say this
mnch: We might say, Gentlemen of the
Hoase, we don’t think there is tho small
est chance o! getting a modified tariff
bill through the Senate, this session, but
if there is one chance in a hundred of
lifting that incubus off tho industry of
tho country, go ahead!” Wo might say
that much to obligs Mr. Thaw.
But, perhaps, chance or no chance-
in season and ont of season—it is tho
better plan to potter away at that mis
taken and unrighteous policy of taxing
to build up class interests instead of for
revenue, until it js abandoned, which it
is certainly destined to bo at no remote
period. The intelligence of the country
is evory year moro strongly enlisted
against taxation for protection, os not
only suicidal so far as the general mate-
rial welfare Is concerned, but false every
way in principle and pernicious in prac
tice—giving encouragement to tbo idea
that the Government is a contrivance to
bo nsed for money-making purposes, in
stead of rd institution designed solely “to
establish justice, insure domestic tran
quillity, provide for the common defense,
promote tho general welfare and secure
tho blessings of liberty.”
This false idea lies at the bottom of
the flood of corruption now deluging the
land, and wo repeat, in our judgment,
thero is no great moral distinction be
tween nsiDg the Government to shut ont
tho people from the benefits of an open
market, and thus compelling them to pay
more for their supplies than to use it for
robbing them through tho arts of cor
ruption and misapplication. Let the
Government stand true to its office os
the common and impartial protector of
the people, and leave them to pursue
their industries and drive their bargains
under impartial laws. This is sense and
reason; but when Government steps be
yond this to interfere with trade and
stimulate this or that industry by indi
rect bounties, there is no end to the de
moralization, disorder and trouble which
must result.
Judging from tho circular of Mi*.
Thaw the protectionists must be in con-
sidorable alarm, which just now seems
to us needless. But they may rely upon
it their system is doomed. They must
soon content themselves with such pro
tection as must necessarily be accorded
by a tariff fo rrovenue, and that is enough.
In attempting to keep up the absurd and
-outrageous protection of the present,
they are wasting their timoand strength
and alienating the respect and confidence
of just men all over the country.
JBrlstow.
In the way of prejudicial rumors, Bris
tow seems to bo unlucky. Many rise
against his fair fame, and not all of them
go down and under so promptly os is de-
sirablo. Yesterday in Washington, they
had him decamping suddenly “for good,”
rather than face Grant in that story told
on Bristow by Gen. Henderson, in bis
testimony. Tho story we allude to is
printed somewhere else in this edition,
and wo are willing to conecde was calcu
lated to raise the President’s choler. But
then, Bristow, like a gallant soldier,
should havo stood to his gu ns, and not
have fled on “pressing private business”
at such an inopportune moment. We
are afraid Bristow is injuring his pros
pects for the Presidency^by this conspic
uous display of lack of personal courage.
It must bo confessed that things are
getting terribly out of joint at the na
tional capital, and every day brings some
now trouble to tho faithful exponents of
high morals m politics. For a “do-
nothing House of Representatives ”—so
raw and so green—they are making a
terrible clatter. Sampson with his jaw
bone did not lay about him more lustily.
Hendersen’g Testimony.
Gen. Henderson was again last Wed
nesday before the Investigating Commit
tee charged with examining into the St.
Louis crooked whisky trials, and the
Washington special to the Courier-Jour
nal says his testimony was important,
and members of the committee have no
h'eritancy in saying that it exposes a
grand ring, embracing Grant, Babcock
and Pierrepont. Hr. Henderson testified
that, to his knowledge. Fox, one of the
jurors in the whisky trials, left the
grand jury room at St. Louis on different
occasions, came directly to Washington,
and unformed the President of all that
had token place therein. Wnen Piorre-
pont would come to the President with
information from the trials, which reach-
ed the Attorney General through the
regular routine channels, ho would be
anticipated by the President’s remark:
“I know all about that.” Mr. Hender
son stated that no reason ever existed for
issuing tbo circular letter, and it is his
belief that tho story circulated that the
President at the start believed that the
prosecution of Babcock was to be a pros
ecution of his private secretary intended
to injure him (Grant) for political effect,
is false. He is said to be of the opinion
that the President from the begin
ning knew that Babcock was guilty;
that the circular letter was printed to
help him; that the man Fox was hired
to’give the secrets of the Grand Jury
room to the President, who in turn gave
them to Babcock, who handed them over
to his attorneys. He thinks that the
circular letter was published with the
President’s knowledge and consent.
Little Storm ’Possea Walls.
In passing through the Oconee swamp
Wednesday morning, on the Central
Railroad, Mr. Adams, the road inspector,
stated to tho writer that the day pre
vious, when the freshet first came down,
while crossing on a hand car he saw
hundreds of trembling little rabbits
perched on every bush or brake that
could afford them foothold. A boat load
. of them might have been secured.
Afterwards the waters rose still higher,
and the poor little fellows were all swept
away. The only animals we saw were a
few frightened swine who lay cuddled up
on the side of the embankment with
their noses almost on the iron rails. It
was a dangerous place of refuge, hut
there was no terra firma in sight, and they
-were cut off from escape by the trestle
•work.
The Movement for the Formation or
r Ynuug Men’s Christian Associa
tion.
On Thursday night lasl, a few pious
young men belonging to each of the
evangelical denominations, met in one of
tho public balls of the city, and an inter
esting discussion ensued os to the design,
propriety and benefit of such an institu
tion.
The question was thoroughly argued
on both sides in all its bearings, and
tbengh the expression of opinion in its
favor was almost unanimous, a resolution
was adopted to defer the election of offi
cers until Thursday of next week, when
it ia hoped, there will fce a full attendance
of all interested.
Those engaged in the good work have
this obstacle to overcome, that a similar
organization was once effected in Macon,
and after a brief existence failed. But
it is easy to show that tho first experi
ment fall by its own weight.
That organization was abnormal in
character and endeavored to accomplish
too much. Thus, to the regular func
tions of a Christian Association were
ituperadded, the formation of a public li
brary and debating club. Each of these
undertakings was useful and meritori
ous, but it was impossible to combine
them all; and besides, the two latter
were not only incongruous, hut utterly
foreign to tho 6cepe and objects of the
former.
To prove this, it need only be stated
that even political questions were al
lowed to he discussed by the debutants.
The expenses of the concern also were
large,and became too onorous to be borne.
What agency, likewise, the renegade
minister who assumed the leadership in
the matter, had in effecting its destruc
tion, may only he surmised.
But the present movement is intended
to be purely of a religious character.
The object is to unite in ono working
brotherhood the young men of all the
evangelical churches, for the purpose of
supplementing tho labors of the ministry
and promoting tho ends of charity. It
may be said, however, this can he done
inside of each denomination by its own
members. But that is impossible, for
tho field is large, and the number compe
tent and willing to perform those duties
very small in any single church.
Co operation is required hero, just as
much as in any other undertaking. All
know too, the power of sympathy and un
ion in achieving desired results, and the
salutary effect of example and the attri
tion of mind with mind.
Tho expense involved would be very
little, as a suitable hall can he had at the
nominal sum of thirty dollars for six
months, and tho necessary seats borrow
ed from the park.
This benevolent enterprise should
commend itself to the favor and support
of every Christian believer. Through its
agency, tho poor and snffering in thb
highways and hedges, and the erring and
abandoned, who never hear the gospel,
may he reached, relieved, and, perhaps,
reformed. Besides what more effectual
means of banishing sectarian bigotry
and promoting peace, harmony and
united action between all the people of
God?
Wo trust the meeting next Thursday
will he numerously attended by the pious
young men of the city, and receive the
countenance and support also of the cler
gy and older memhera of the several
churches.
Teachers Association or Georgia.
This body, which comprises much, of
the learning and talent of the common
wealth, will meet in Mozart Hall, Savan
nah, on Tuesday, May 2d.
The nddress of welcome will he pro
nounced by Dr. R. D. Arnold, one of
Savannah's most gifted sons, and the re
sponse come from the distinguished
President of Mercer University, Rev. A.
J. Battle, D. D , who is also President of
tho Association.
The printed programme for Tuesday,
Wednesday and Thursday is replete with
interest, and covers tho whole field of
common school education, including nat
ural science in public schools, and indus
trial education. Various essays also will
bo delivered, among which we notice one
on tbo "History of Arithmetic,” by Prof.
Sanford; “Law as a Branch of Popular
Education.” by Walter B. Hill, Esq. "How
the Blind See,” by W. D. Williams, Prin
cipal of Georgia Academy for the Blind,
and an address upon State education, by
Hon. W. H. Buffner, LL. D , of Rich
mond, Va.
The usual reports of committees also
will be received, and various discussions
take place upon all the salient questions
relating to the education of the masses.
The whole will conclude with a de
lightful excursion to Tybee Island and
the Atlantic Ocean, to return by moon
light.
Georgia has just reason to he proud of
her noble hand of professors and in
structors of youth, and none are more
useful or deserving of praise.
We trust the meeting of the Associa
tion will be largely attended, and result
in great good.
Shocking Ignorance and Superstition
While we are laboring with praise
worthy diligence to send the gospel to
the uttermost parts of the earth, and
isles of tho sea, few are aware of the
amount of sickening ignorance which ex
ists at our own doors. We are led to
this remark by the appearance in this
office, on Friday, of an elderly hard fa
vored man, hut with an open, honest
countenance, who lives m the country.
He is able to read, and when presented
with a paper gratuitously, said: “Now,
mister, I know something that you can
print if you are a mind to, that will do
the world lots of good.”
Upon inquiring what it was, he re
plied, “the way to cure burns, other ail
ments in people and the grubs m horses.”
Well, what is it ?
“I will tell you,” he said-
“If anybody gits burnt, it don’t mind
how bad, jist say this over him:
X have two sued, in the world;
One is fire, the other frost;
Come out fire, so in frost,
J n the name ol Father, Son and Holy Ghost.
“That is bound to cure him. It reliev
ed my grandchild and a woman who was
burnt all over, and never did fail. Lots
of people can prove it.
“It will cure horses of grubs too, cause
I have tried it.
“When the horse is troubled with them
varmints, jist change one line and say,
‘come out, grubs, go in health,’ and it
will be all right.”
The poor creature could not be shaken
in his belief of this, nor made to under
stand that it was nothing hut blasphe
mous superstition and besotted igno
rance on his part, and so we let him
alone. He ia a native of Twiggs county,
Georgia, and we have his name.
Hero is a chance for the home mis
sionary.
Cost or the Public Schools.
The regular quarterly meeting of the
Bibb County School Board was held on
Saturday, bnt owing to previous engage
ments on the part of some of the mem
bers, most of the business was postponed
to an adjourned meeting, to be called by
the President.
The following statement was before
the Board of the monthly cost of the
public schools of the city and county as
now running—showing all expenses to
be $2,847 GG per month. There are fifty-
five teachers employed, at an aggregate
compensation of $2,597, or say an aver
age of about $41 apiece. Two thousand
and forty-nine children are under in
struction, at a total estimated cost of
$25,667 for eight months’ tuition, ter
minating the 1st of Juno next—showing
an average cost of a dollar, and five cents
per month per pupil. The relative cost
of the white and colored schools will also
be seen by this table.
The income to meet these expenses is
a3 follows: County appropriation, $20,-
000; State appropriation (estimated the
same as last year), $2.650; poll tax (es
timated), $2,000; Peabody fund, $1,000;
receipts from tuition, $200—total, $25,-
650.

New York Herald.)
Same important inculpating evidence
has been taken by the Committee on Ex
penditures in the Interior Department,
and among the persons implicated
are the Delanos. It la said that the orig
inal claim for tho Flagstaff mine, in Utah,
was contested by a w ell organized ring,
who sent lawyers and money to Washing
ton to get a patent issued. But, in spite
of all their efforts, three decisions were
rendered against the new claimants, and
there was no prospect of success for them
until suddenly a patent was lss'-ed in
one day and the original owners deprived
of their former rights to the mine. Large
sums of money were involved. From the
beginning of the litigation George C.
Bates, an attorney, an ex-Washingtonian,
of reputed influence with President Grant,
was employed by Haskins, the first own
er, to resist the demand for a patent by
contestants. He thought that he had a
good case, especially as three decisions
had been rendered in favor of his client.
Delano seemed to incline toward the
original title, when, suddenly, the matter
was referred to Attorney General Wil
liams. But before the new referee had
time to act, Delano issued the patent. It
is alleged that John Delano was the real
actor in the case, that ho received $40,000
for getting his father to grant the pat
ent, and that the money was sent through
the First National Bank of Omaha. Oth
er witnesses are expected in a few days
to further corroborate the allegations. It
is also charged that the patent of the
Emma Mine, which is in the neighbor
hood of the Flagstaff Mine, was obtained
by fraud; that $30,000 was paid for the
patent, and afterward a false panic was
created and the English stockholders were
made to believe that the patent was to
he set aside, whereby they were induced
to pay $32,000 in order to hold the claim.
Not True to Themselves.
Agnew, Mayor, and seven members ont
of twelve, (five of them negroes,) have
been elected by the extreme Radicals of
Columbia, South Carolina, in the recent
municipal election. This, the corres
pondent of the Ncxcs and Courier from that
city writes, was wholly due tj tho apathy
of some, and the treachery of others of
thA whites. The Radical Mayor was
chosen over his Democratic opponent,
Stanley, by twenty-four votes only.
Mr. Stanley’s defeat i3 to be attriouted
solely to division and indifference on the
part of the white Democrats, enough of
whom voted for Agnew to secure his
election by the pitiful majority above
given. Seventy five white men failed to
register in the third ward alone, and
even with this disadvantage Stanley
would have been elected had not a few
white Democrats voted against him. A
ruling majority in the council was also
lost by the miserable conduct of those
whito citizensjwho failed to do their duty,
or who threw away their votes on the
irregular nominees. Stenhonse, Hayne,
Wing, Senn, Darling and Diercks are all
conservative men, and the city can con
gratulate itself upon having secured
these at least. The feeling in regard to
the result is very deep, and is directed
solely against the faithless whites, to
whom the credit of the failure is due.
The whites of our sister State will
lose much of the sympathy of their
brethren from abroad, if they thus show
that they are willing to hug their chains,
and submit supinely to negro and rene
gade domination. Shame on a people
who once led the van wherever thero was
danger to he encountered, or glory won.
Let ns hope that this sad result in their
own capital will arouse the people of the
State hereafter to greater exertions.
The Eloquence of Hr. Moody.
If any one can read without emotion
the thrilling story of the cross as told in
ths sermon of the evangelist, to be found
elsewhere to day, then hnman language
is powerless to movejthe heart, and con
trol the actions of sentient beitgs. There
are no deftly rounded periods—no start
ling antitheses—no rhetorical flonrisht s —
no ponderous arguments presented; bnt
still the attention and souls of listeners
are irresistibly borne along with the ora
tor, despite the simplicity of his utter
ances.
If thi3 he not real elo jnence, then how
may the word be defined ?
There is an indescribable magnetic
power in theso short sentences which
come like spasmodic throbs of the heart,
and move the multitude to tears.
This single discourse is sufficient to
explain the wonderful effects of Mr.
Moody’s preaching. Who will dare deny
also that the Spirit of the most High
God is with him ?
SIGNS OF HANGER.
The I,e-sons of Four Years—Who Is
Responsible for the National Deg.
rndatlon ?
[Senator Bayard's Answer to Boutwell.]
Bear with me fora moment while I call
your attention to some of tho signs of
danger. About four years ngo an emi
nent statesman and patriot with whom you
all, I think, probably—certainly most of
you—differed during his long political
life, but whom you all respected, not
only because of his learning, not only
because of his eloquence, but because a
patriotic heart beat within his bo3om—
four veara ago, standing in the Senate of
the United States, Charles Sumner [ap
plause] warned the people of the dangers
which lay before them. You remember,
for you recall tho speech, how it fell upon
ears that were deaf, and that, notwith
standing this warning, expressed with
matchless eloquence and with consum
mate skill, the people of the country
blindly walked in the path against which
he had warned them, and re-elected to
office the men against whom be bad
uttered his warning. Hardly were they
in their seats—nay, his second oath as
President had not been administered to
Gen. Grant before the country was amaz
ed at a revelation of a scandal in connec
tion with the construction of the road
from the Mississippi river to the Pacific
ocean.
One after another the public idols went
down; one man after another, previously
in good repute, was smirched, and the
people stood amazed. This was hardly
ended before disclosures were made os to
the practices by which great sums of
money had been extorted from the mer
chants of onr great seaport, and the in
former Jayne became familiar to the
people. "We then saw how the prosecu
tion of the law was made an instrument
for blackmail, and that while the Treas
ury Buffered the informer grew rich.
Hardly was this ended before other reve
lations were brought to light, and ono
gentleman after another left the Presi
dents Cabinet. Proof of incompeteney
compelled the Secretary of the Treasuiy,
Mr. Richardson, to retire. Suspicion of
unworthy conduct next drove Attorney
General Williams out of tho Cabinet, and
then certain disclosures affecting his son
and other persons upon intimate terms
with him, compelled Mr. Delano to re
tire.
Before long disclosures of frand in the
West leading to the conviction of certain
minor officials there were traced into the
very household of the President, and his
private secretary, a ward of the nation,
educated at its military academy, was
thrown under suspicion. I don’t know
how you felt, but I was glad enough to
hear of his acquittal, for I wished to be
lieve that it had not yet come to this
that eves the soldiors who had carried
our flag in their hands and had worn
our swords upon their thighs and our
uniforms upon their shoulders, had de
scended to the common degradation; hut
this morning’s newspapers leave so
doubt even upon that offense of Gen.
Babcock, and show him not only to he
guilty, but to havo endeavored to steal
from the hands of his prosecutors the
evidence of his guilt. [Cries of "shame.”]
Well, we had endured so much with
what patience we could command, when
we were suddenly astounded, and I be.
lieve every citizen was shocked at the
terrible revelation with reference to Mr.
Belknap, the Secretary of War.. I will
not dwell upon this; thoso people who
like snch scoundrels may descant upon
them, but it was the first time in onr
history that any such suspicion had ever
attached to an officer of the Prasident’s
Cabinet. Whatever reason there was to
suspect the purity of men holding
lower grades of official station, we have
always found that the process of 'se
lection by which Cabinet officers were
chossn was so strict that a thief could
not go into the Cabinet, nor have the
right of daily access to the President,
nor the right to take a seat in his council
chamber;.but this time—bringing, too,
the fair repute of woman down—William
Belknap, Secretary of War, went down
into utter infamy.
My friends, is this accidental? Are
these mere occasional manifestations of
slight disaster which we may suppose
will presently pass away to occur no moro,
or are they, as I think they aro, proofs
of deep-seated disease, which can only he
extirpated by the most efficient—nay, by
the most heroic—remedies? I stand
here to say to-night that in my judg
ment the President of the United States
has his full share of responsibility in the
degradation of our public service. [Ap
plause.] We have been accustomed to
having our Presidents men who were
trained to the methods and systems and
traditions of our Government, bnt. when
he came to tho Presidency the Govern
ment fell into the hands of a soldier un
familiar with tho governmental pro
cesses, and accustomed to the rude and
arbitrary rules of the camp, and in the
very choice of his Cabinet he showed that
he was a stranger to the institutiosa of
his country, for he brought into his Cab
inet, in a very large part, men not only
without a tithe of the training which we
hare been accustomed to think so neces
sary, bnt he brought into his Cabinet
men who were unknown, whose very
name3 the people did not recognize,
showing that he looked upon the high
office of the State to be not a trust com
mitted to his hands by the people, but as
a property to be used by himself as he
chose. And so in tho same spirit he put
all of his family [laughter] into office.
[Laughter and applause.]
I certainly am not giving you novel
information when I say to you that up to
the accession of Gen. Grant to the Presi
dency no President of the United States
has ever appointed his relatives to office,
unless it was that a President has select
ed for his private secretary a person in
such intimate and close relation to
himself as a President might well
wish to have in a person filling so confi
dential an office. With this exception,
no President ever appointed relations to
office before Gen. Grant. A distinguished
Senator from New York defended the
President because he said he had looked
carefully through the list, and the Presi
dent had only nine of his family in office
besides himself. Well, the President
w&s in the White House and his son was
at West Point, and there were nine o'.her
gentlemen in office. Now I wondered
when I read that observation how many
people fitted to hold office the gentleman
supposed the average President would
have in his family ? You will remember
that in order to hold official positian one
must be a male; that is a thing to be
greatly regretted, for I don’t doubt that
if the Iadie3 were in office we should be
spared some of the scandals, but at pres
ent he must be a male, and twenty-one
years of age. In other words, a voter.
Now, taking the ordinary proportion of
voters to the whole population as one to
five a man must have a family of forty-
five in order to find nine men among
them. [Laughter]
I say nothing about General Grant
being in the White House or his son at
West Point; if they were added, why
then it would require a family of fitty-
five. [Renewed laughter.] Senator
Conkling must have had large ideas as
to the size of families when he supposed
he was defending President Grant by
proving that he only had nine of his
family in office. But, if so, the question
of nine men taking office, you would for
give, especially in case of a soldier who
had done much good for his country.
But, my friends, that does not disclose
all the evils of such example. I tell you
the difference is not very great- between
the President who forgets his duties,
who neglects to exercise his power as if
it were a trust, and puts relatives in of
fice—there is not much difference be
tween him and s Secretary of War who
sells post-traderships. [Applause.] It
is one of degree only.
Now, I don’t mean to say that because
Gen. Grant put his relatives in office that,
therefore, he would be willing to sell post
traderships; far from it that I should
throw Buch an imputation upon him, but
I do mean to say this, that such a derelic
tion of duty upon his part as was shown
by hia appointment of his relatives to
office, coming to the knowledge of a
coarser man, such as Belknap has shown
himself to be—coming to the knowledge
of a venal man, such as Belknap has
shown himslf to he—coming to the
knowledge o f a poor man who was in a
great place and tempted by his poverty as
Belknap was—he seeing the President so
neglectful of h:s duty, and using his
place in another way, legal, but against
tradition, against conscience, against the
judgment of his country, to make money
for his family—3uch a man as Belknap,
in the face of such an example, might
well think that he could do what he did
do—take the money o: infamy into his
hinds <nd put it into his pocket. [Ap
plause.] Travelers in the mountains of
Switzerland tell us that a word, though
it oe broken in a whisper, will some
times loosen upon the perilous edge of
the precipice a few lakes of snow, which,
gathering and gathering and accumulat
ing in quantity, finally pour an avalanche
into the valley, wetting the earth to
great depths, and covering men and the
habitations of men. And so he who
holds such a place as the Presidency by
tho slightest lapse from duty may set
another avalanche in motion far more
terrifying to tho imagination, covering
the land, as it has covered it, with the
vile blaze ot official corruption. [Ap-'
plause.]
Can’t They be Invited to Macon ?
The Chronicle and Sentinel says:
We understand that Mr. Moody, who
is at once one of the must earnest and
practical preachers now living, will hold
services in this city the first week in M»y.
He will come (D. Y.) from Jacksonville,
Fla., via Savannah—spending a short
time at each place. Oar people are anx
ious to see and hear the groat revivalist.
So great is this desire that extraordinary
provision will have to be made in the
matter of a place of worship. None of
the churches are large enough to accom
modate the thousands that will daily
wait on Mr. Moody’s ministry. It has
been suggested that soma one of our
largest warehouses will have to be me
tamorphosed into an audience room for
the occasion.
The evangelists will visit Augusta un
der the auspices of the Young Men’s
Christian Association. Our young breth
ren havo ample time to perfect their own
organization in season, as it were to in
augurate the noble undertaking with the
services of these great revivalists. Will
they not make an effort to do so ?
The movement we are sure would be
hailed with the liveliest satisfaction by
the entire community, and might, by
God’s blessing, be the means of immense
good.

CflBFASli JAPAN PEAS
T HE introduction of these crops throughout
thA South will enable us to keep our stock
and fill our smoke- houses hr cheaply as it can be
done at the West. The CHUFA is planted in a
ridge, like potatoes, yields on common land 200
bushels per acre of tho richest feed, unequalled
for fattening hogs, poultry—and children. One
acre will fatten more hogs than ten acres of tho
best corn, besides furnishing grazing nil summer.
For tho truth of these claims we refer to IT. S.
Commissioner of Agriculture, Washington, or to
any agrirultural paper in the South. Price, by
mail, postage paid, c. a package, 40c. a pjnt,
75c. a quart; by express, §4 a peck. $15 ft bushel.
The JAPAN PEA fully established its merits
several years ago, and is now in universal de
mand. It grows upright, like a cotton stalk, w
cultivated like corn, and yields from 150 to wj
bushels an acre on ordinary land. Stock of all
kinds relish it and thrive highly on it without
other Led. Also excellent for table use (after
boiling about a week.) Price, by mail, postage
paid, 16c. a package, 30c. a pint, 60c. a quart; by
express, $3 per peck, §10 per bushel. These seeds
are so scarce and costly that we cannot make
anv discount to wholesale dealers or Grange*.
When Southern planters grow their own stork,
feed and fatten their own hogs, we shall hear no
moro of hard times and “middle men,” fortnw
will put an end to both. If you fear to invest
largely, ft will cost but a trifle to try these sends,
and unless your experience differs from all others
you wifi bo forever thankful for the trial. Ad
