Tim cost of (laying out the school fnrnl

commissioner were al dished, less than
six cents would be added to each

prospects of the cotton crop all over

18 percent below those of last year

was in a worse condition than the
cotton, lie eouicM to. the conclusion
that the annual rainfall is no less than
formerly, hut that drought* are ni<*t*
injurious to the r*ps than they ustrd
to he. This he attributes to the steady
decrease in the quantity of vegetable
matter m the soil. The remedies
which tie recommends are the use of as
much stable manure and compost as
can he obtained, the cultivation ol
small nrain and clover, peas and othci
renovating crops (to he plowed timh t
in the fall). He urges economy in
feeding tin* supplies now on hand, and
especially advises farmers to sow oats
liberally. He says the best, time for
sowing in North Georgia is between
the middle of August and the last of
September.

Hfiscoverod to tho ini prove moot of the
rani I, its propor fertilization, and its most
Huoooasful culture. lie must not bo
content with the methods of the past.
They are ill adapted to tho progressive
ones of the present, and an ignorance of
thorn , a refusal to avail himself of all the
aid# and appliances that applied science
and mechanics furnish for planting,
cultivating, and harvesting crops, only
work injury fo his interest, and cause him
to bo loft bcltirt!) in the. race of successful
agriculture. Your profession to day
demands intellectual development,
agricultural knowledge, and, if you would
not he lost in tho great whirlpool that
row threatens so many of our farmers
with dost ruction, you must he able to
apply the principles of your science wisely
in the art of culture. Far out in the
stream is tho sandbank of exclusive
cotton culture, white with the bones of
men and beasts who have perished there.
Their skeletons indicate their loan and
starving condition when they were
stranded and lost. No bread to fatten,
no meat to strengthen, no comforts to
lacs# and gladden them; no surplus
means to provide any or all of there, for
they were all expended to enrich the
western merchant and farmer, tho com
mercial fertilizer agent, and the in
dispensable money lender. What a sad
and suggestive picture! Time worn
implements,Jinlf fed stock, (from causes
stated above), made poor crops—high
priced ciedit consumed net earnings;
absence of homo comforts engendered
jlissatisfac’ im and neglect -a total rc
wire.upon others destroyed self rcsjicot
and manly independence, ami in this
miserable condition, despondent and
n ckloss, they plunged on ami on down
the stream until they wt re benched, with
no arms to help and no hand to save.
There is an instructive lesson in thL
1 istory. You may jetty the stream wbh
temporary pi r of credit, you may
deepen the channel by laborious dredging
with your w >tton machine, but when the
Hoods come, ns come they will, the
was hi tics of recoding hnnksand inundated
fields of ot her indu tries will refill the
exc.'Vticd channel. The make *bift
banters, powerless to oppose tho rushing
•.voters, will give way. and vour vessels,
laden with-false hopes'and heavy obligu
lions, and manned b\ a crow carrying
false hills ol hiding, and dependent for
subsistence upon doubtful letters of
credit, will share tin? fate of others, whose
wrecks cover the bunk with their debris,
and whose crews whitened iliom? sands
wit 11 their bones. How solemn are the
warnings of this dangerous sandbank.
There is a legend of the Fast that the
minds of the pilgiims, as they journeyed
toward their sacred shrines, wre
e nth lined with the belief that on the
summit ot " flic cedar groves of Lebanon’’
ministoring spirits descended at appointed
times to r ctify the actions of men. I
would such a tradition could stir your
souls to day, and that, among the dry
hmos on this dangerous sandbank, tho
spirits of those stran led there would warn
you by precept and sad example of the
danger of the course, and (he certainty of
destruction of all who run it. In tho
stream in vL !*h you sail arc numerous
wrecks that endanger your voyage, and
none more to be dreaded or shunned than
indifference to your profession. Content
to follow ulono tho paths their fathers
went, many are insensible to improve
ment, and almost opposed to progress.
“What cure I,’’ says one, “for scientific
experiments? My father never heard of
them or of agricultural chemistry, yet he
made remunerative crops and grew rich.”
Ho grow rich, because of the increase of
hi- slaves, and because he could yearly
cultivate a virgin soil. How changed
your condition. Your former slavos an*
freemen, your labor system.is illrcgulitfed
and inefficient, your fertile soil by inja
dieioua and wasteful culture has become
exhausted, and the farm’ system of your
lathers is not adapted to your changed
relations, nor to the agricultural pioblem
of reclaiming exhausted soils and in
tensifying their productiveness. The
important questions for farmers now are.
How i- our profession to keep pace with
the world’s advancement in arts, in maim
fauturcs, in mechanics, and in every other
industry? Are we to remain indifferent
tj every development ol science? Are wo
to suffer our sails to become i m po ve r ished,
and do nothing for their maintenance arid
support? Ate we to roman listless and
see our Uhor system detoriorite, and our
laborers decrease, and do nothing to
remedy the one or supplement the other
with artificial hands and labor-saving
appliances? Are we to be contented with
the present productiveness of our soil,
when our noeo.-sities demand diminished
acreage and increased productiveness?
Are we, in our indifference and self
satbfied condilian, to oppose every effort
to elevate our calling and enhance its
usefulness? Are we so versed in financial
ethics that wo can make low priced cotton
purchase high price bacon and dollar corn
oml leave a remainder? Are we to reject
the teaching of science and the improved
j methods of seiontis s because ofutipar
i donable prejudice against bouk-faruiine?
Ate we to discard our profession
j because some underestimate its value and
! ridicule iV pretemions? These questions
addresfl themselves forcibly to your judg
ment, your self respect, and your
patriotism. It is important you should
well consider them, and nerve yourselves
for the duties an enlightened reply will
devolve upon you. The present condition
of the agriculturists of Georgia indue
largely to a false estimate of your
profession, and a want of unanimity and
courage in pushing its c'airns and demand
ing its just recognition. It is a lament
able fact that every effort of individuals
or government to benefit agriculture—if
it involves any outlay of money—meets
the most det rmined opposition from the
tillers of the soil, i grant you, they
should he economical —for they have
heavy burdens to hear—but a false notion
of economy retards progress, paralyzes
industry, “discourages manufacturing
and higher mechanical pursuits,” and by
reason of its inanition, destroys the very
purpose of its stint, and cheeks the
growth of industries and the increase of
wealth. Successful agriculture is based
upon chemical seienne, vet agricultural
skeptics ignore its teachings, ridicule its
pretensions, and reject its theories, yearly
robbing the soil of its productive elements.
Painfully conscious that cotton culture is
rapidly exhausting it** fertility, they
refuse it the necessary food to sustain it.
aad suffer it to grow weaker and weaker,
until finally it is al nndoned to sedge
weed and to waste. This unconcern and
apathy should cense. The time has enuio
for farmers to throw off the shackles thof
fetter t>em, and to march forward
tint ram moled by ignorance or prejudice
?n the road of progress Sustained and
benefited by every other industry,
enriched by the ; r suece nod growth,
thousands of our agriculturist* are wholly
indifferent to tho m Minnie arts r.nd the
growth of manufactures. Away with
this suicidal policy! What agriculture
needs is a full devolopon out of her own
capabilities. This can only be effected
by a gonormi* recognition of the claims
of other industries to successful advance
ment.
Someone. ha- sai l, “The cotton field is
not complete without ti e loom to trans
form its products, nor without n supply
of the varied food product** necessary to
supply the want* of producers”
Southern factories. Southern furnace*.
Southern foundries and Southern shops,
are needed to stimulate food crops for
h r une consumption and increase the
products of the farm; and yet to establish
these industries, to provide for them
skilled w irkmeri. wo must needs look for
aid to Northern capital and for supply to
Norfhcrn*induHtrinl schools nrd work
shop*. This dependent state should
• ease, and will if the planters of Geor ia
-r n njority of our population will
awaken to the necessities of tl ■ ace and
fhe importance of the work. Georgia
lias been paving tribute siiltioienfly long
to the tnnnufa urers of the Nrth, the
iron and e al men of the Kast, and the
for mew of the West. This depleting
policy should oense, and her people are
cu’pable if if does not. for she can he an
“iron state, a coal and lumber state, u
grain and fruit state,” as well as a
dependent cotton state. She is possessed
ot all these elements of wealth, and yet
she culpably refuses to utilize them for
her own aggrandizement. A writer in
the Flanters’ Journal assorts that, last
year the South paid the North and West
fifty five million dollars for wheat, fifty
millions for corn, seventy-two millions for
meat, and twenty-five millions for hay and
other products, and since the war a total
of $3,434,000,000. My God! what a
criminal expenditure, and lor those com
modities her own labor and soil could
abundantly produce. Cun you expect to
grow rich, with such a drain upon your
resources; two thirds of a cotton crop
expended out*ide of the states that
produce it? Do you expect to till tic
vessel, when she is leaking at head and
side and spigot? \ -u plead economy,
when an appeal is made to develp your
own and other imlu tries, while you are
guilty of unnecessary outlay and ex
travagant waste iu supp.ying youiselves
with what your own hills and fields w ill
abundantly furnish if you will develop,
feed and cultivate them. Think how
much we are yearly paying Old and New
England, because they have skilled
machinists aud educated manufacturers
to transform l!io great staple of our
fields. “A pound ol cotton,” says Kx
Governor Fatten, of Alabama, “in its
raw state is worth to the planter ten
cents, or SSO for a 500 pound ba e; man
ufactured into yarn, it i* worth fifty cents
per pound, or $250 per halo, which, after
paying the planter his fifty dollars, aud
giving the manufacturer $25 tor his
profit, leaves $175 lor repairs and the
operatives who guide and direct the
machinery in its transformation.” Wby
this great bonus to Northern capitalists
to bring back our cotton in changed
forms to our doors? Why not educate j
our own sons so that they can build, j
superintend : ud run our own factories, j
and keep our cotton and profits at home? j
Who will be more benefited by such i .
course than the planters of Georgia? j
Who need more competing purchasers for
their products, more home markets,
more consumers than they, and who so
indifferent about building up these in
dustries, which have, by improved nm
chinery lowered the price of manu
factured articles and hove brought within
reach of the poorest conveniences the
richest could not otherwise have obtained.
Consider then your own interest and
encourage divci ified industries and
sustain every association organized for
their maintenance and advancement.
Support those great auxiliaries—your
agricultural papers and your country
societies. Cling to your state organiza
tion, it is the chain that bind> in union
and in interests the farmers ol Georgia.
Break it and von destroy ail cooperative
effort, organized union and purpose. In
this uninjfcj* your strength. Strength to
guard and protect your interests.
Strength to assort and maintain you*
rights. Every trad.t and profession ha*
its organization J he merchant
has his board of The utrohanfo
has his labor physician hi*
medical society. Tho attorney his bar
association. The manufacturer his
spinner'*organization, and each organised
and supported for the advancement and
promotion of it* own especial interest.
This society is yours. Why should you
not maintain it for a similar purpose?
Foster it, for it will advance your
profession, maintain it, it is the protection
of your rights, preserve it and it will gain
strength with hko and grow in usefulness
as it increases in years. To do less would
prove yourselves unworthy of your great
industry, and by your indifference you
would strengthen your enemies, dis
courage agriculture and materially injure
your profession.
lUNIIhU OF CONTRACTION.
The national bank circulation is taxed
one per cent on the entire issue. The
rale of interest on bonds to secure circu
lation is three and one-half per cent.
When other expenses contingent upon
keeping circulation afloat aro taken
account of, this item becomes an actual
loss, in thfc aggregate, to the banka. This
state of affairs has led to the withdrawal
of circulation in many cases to the exact
point needed to retain the charters.
In the lust week in July the Philadel
phia National Bank had afloat notes
amounting to $200,000. On August Ist
the directors resolved to rqduce the
amount to $45,000. Three other Phila
dol| hia hanks have taken the same
course. Several of the strongest banks
in New York are, and have for some time
been, without any circulation at all. The
Philadelphia bank first named retired
la-t week $200,000 nf its bonds, and had
previously retired $ 1.000,000, and
SBOO,OOO circulation.
There is genera! indifference among
the bank*, if not positive aversion, to
continue circulation on the existing basis.
A few who lin’d four and four and one
half per cent hoods, purchased direct
from the government at a shade above
par, can afford to, and probably will,
continue out their notes, tin til those bond
begin to fall due, some seven years hence.
This is one of tho questions that mu*'
bo considered by the new congress; and it
i* one of the very first impoitanoe.
Tin* three and one-half |*cr cent bonds
—the “ Wimlnn.s —are duo “at the
pleasure of tho government, ’’ and
probably two-thirds of the entire bark
•dreiilufion outstanding i*% based or tho*
-ecurnie*. If flic tr< usurer goes to re
tiring the “Windom*” (and he must do
tint! or stop ail act rial reduction ot the
debt) one halfor moreo! tho s3 f ’J t)00,0i)d
of bank notes now out will disappear
very speedily. And, whether the
retiring policy is carried forward by the
government or nt. a continual menace
of it hangs over the hanks, and they, as
prudent hn>inosa concerns, will very
lik<l> the Philadelphia bank*
mentioned have just done lake time by
ho forelock, ami not leave themselves in
a position to be sudden I v forced into a
re ad just ment of their business.
It does not require expert and detailed
knowledge of the tm ional finances to
enable one to foret *ll tho effect of
suddenly reducing the circulating medium
by taking in $200,000,000 or more of
hank notes. It could result in nothing
but panic. Tho volume of the greenback
notes is absolutely fixed by law and
certainly under the Hirst lee. Mons u f the
sup re lie court, that limit . .moot be ecu
Htitutiotiuily overstepped. 'fhe result
therefore of rapid reduction of the
otroulntion. by the amount iodi ated here,
would be either depletion of the bank
and government reserves below'?he point
of safety, or commercial and industrial
po’hjpso.
There need, probably, be no especial
fear that congress will permit either of
these disastrous conditions to become
verities; but the means tor preventing
one or the other are not now clearly in
the vision of our ablest financiers in a::d
out of congress. —( h<ttt<tmnH/a Tim**
