prosperity of this section.
Review the past four years and you will see

‘ Their hand was heavy on every interest

^advice, solicitation and testimony of a lit-
7 minority of carpet-bag adventnrers and their
•'iiEoring of ignorant negro politicians, were
-elusive against the judgment, wishes and
Spirits of the whole body of intelligent Souto-
rS whites.
Indeed, to state the case correctly, it was
-fficientfor Radicals to know the opinions
, wishes of the Southern whites to drive them
"directlv opposite conclusions; and this seems
.,be pretty nearly the case with Congress at
ie present time.
With a party in that temper, we might roason-
,lv apprehend an executive exponent of the
oaie disposition. But if, instead of that, we shall
isdliim fair and reasonable—disposed to listen
a on( , aide as well .is to the other, and willing
, ute a course for the benefit of the country,
jsinad of the particular benefit of radicalism at
tc expense of the country, much trouble will be
voided, which, in the complete triumph of the
u ny. we had good reason to fear. It seems
ss, this istho true standpoint from which

Right Alton}, Fact*!
The Kentuckians say, that since emancipation )
“a fatal change has come over the negro as an
agricultural laborer,” and they are, consequent
ly, digesting an immigration system which will
bring in white labor from the.North and Europe.
Kentncky presents such extraordinary induce
ments to immigration that there is no doubt, in
a few years, she will be as populous as Ohio.
This prospect has stirred up a violent opposi
tion to the immigration bill among the Kentncky
radicals, white and block, just ss similiar meas
ures are beginning to do in other Southern
States. They have no idea that this negro pow
er, in a new shape, shall be overborne, curtail
ed or abated by white immigration to the South.
In old slavery times it was the cry of the
freo soilers that the “sloee holder” sealed up
the South against white immigration and im
provement, and their destruction was therefore
demanded by the interests of civilization. No
sooner, however, is the “negro power" in the
hands of slaveholders prostrated, than a new
“negro power" is erected under the auspices
of the Radicals, avowedly bent on preventing
white immigration.
Then it was charged by the Radicals that the
slaveholders were wielding this negro power
against the white race—against civilization—
trade—progress and refinement. How is the
“negro power” now wielded in the hands of the
RadicalsClearly against the white race—the
white ballot—white supremacy—white intelli
gence, order, progress and civilization. It is
wielded for the perpetuation of negro power,
negro ballots—negro supremacy for the bene
fit of carpet-bag Radicalism. It is wielded to
perpetuate a system of shiftless, slovenly, semi-
barbarous labor, and to check the onward pro
gress of Caucasian civilization, intelligence,
culture and refinement.
The Radicals in Congress charge falsely that
the Southern whites are now opposed to white
immigration to the South. We, on the contrary,
organize societies and appropriate money to en
courage such immigration from all parts of the
world. We are supremely anxious to introduce
more white people into this section, with
their better agricultural and mechanical labor—
better morals and a more intelligent suffrage
than the Radicals have forced upon us. Vi’here-
ever these movements have encountered oppo
sition, it comes from the Radicals who are op
posed to a disturbance of the relative political
forces in the South, and to an improvement of
the ballot. Thus the Radicals take up the cast
off garments of what they used to call the “slave
power” and give the world a new illustration of
“negro power" more fatally at war with civiliza
tion than any yet complained of.
Pot Called the Kettle Bl:tck Face.
The Washington special of March Gth, to the
Louisville Courier-Journal, says:
The special message of the President to the
Senate to-day, asking for the repeal of the sec
tion of tho Treasury act of 178!), which prevents
Sir. Stewart from accepting the office of Secre
tary of the Treasury, created a profound sensa
tion. It was looked upon as a dictation that
smacked of the days of Andrew Johnson, and all
efforts to consider it at once failed utterly, the
leading Radicals declaring in conversation that
it was a matter of too profound importance to be
rushed through in a day. “Why should we re
peal this time-honored clause, creating one of
the departments of the Government, merely to
allow an importer to decide on dozens of his own
cases now pending in the Treasury?” said a
Senator. It was urged that the President
should have taken well posted men into his con
fidence, men who knew the laws, so that he
' would no? hare made such a terrible blunder on
the eery first day of hit official erisienee as the
Chief Magistrate. ’ Others declared that the
I easiest way to settle the matter was to send in
another name for Secretary of the Treasury.
Although the House was nothin session, a large
numbers of its members were about the capital,
and the opinion was uniformly expressed against
any repeal or modification of the law in ques
tion. ft iu .ks now as though Mr. Stewart wonld
have to sail out his business or resign the posit-
iioii he accepted.
The Senate, it seems to us, is in a bad con
dition to talk about that blunder. They con
firmed the nomination of Mr. Stewart unani
mously in the face of the law; and if fifty odd
Senators of the United States were profoundly
ignorant of the law organizing the department,
how could they expect more of a .soldier imper
fectly educated and whose studies and attention
had never been drawn to these matters ? It
was a blunder; but the Senate, having unani
mously and notoriously committed themselves
to it, had no chance to throw stones.

The Breakiko up op the Indiana Legisla
ture.—The resignation of all the Democratic
members of the Indiana Legislature having
been published, the following, which is the form
in which all were written, will explain the rea
son for their action:
Senate Chamber, >
Indiantpolis, MarchS, 1SG9./
Ooe. Conrad Baker:
Sib—I hereby resign the office of Senator, in
the present General Assembly of the State, from
the counties of Cass and Fulton.
I beg leave to add, that I do so for the pur
pose of securing to the people of Indiana, and
particularly to my own constituency, the right
to express their voice on the adoption or rejec
tion of the Constitutional Amendment, enforc
ing negro suffrage, which is proposed to be
adopted by the present Legislature without such
an expression of the people.
Respectfully yours,
Charles B. Laselle.
The night proceeding the morning npon which
these resignations were handed to the Governor,
a caucus was held in the Senate Chamber, at
tended by every Democratic member except
two, who were absent on account of sickness.
This action was then and there resolved upon
unanimously. Governor Baker issued writs or
dering a new election in all the counties thus un
represented—the election to take place in April.
The bolting members will all be candidates, and
the papers say they will be re-elected by increased
majorities. In that caso they will repeat tho
same thing over should a motion prevail to vote
npon the constitutional amendment.
Mnnicipul Klection in Brnnswicli.
Tho Banner of the Gth, says: On last Mon
day the following gentlemen were elected for
the present year:

Fob Aldebmen—BurrWinton, H. B. Robinson,
Richard Orme, G. S. Cook, JL B. Holland, Jas.
T. Bluin, C. G. Moore, U. Dart, Jr.
The election was conducted qnietly. Tho
colored people joined harmoniously with the
whites nnd showed a disposition to confide in
their old friends. Tho colored people of Bruns
wick can’t be beat for good behaviour. We
hope they will always act in the futuro as they
have in the past and all will bo well with them
and the whites.
The Gkant-Pollabd Verdict.—The Rich
mond Dispatch closing up its report of tho trial,
says:;
We learn from an undeniable source that tho
verdict of tho jury was not founded in tho
slightest degree upon tho plea of provocation.
Tho minds of tho jurymen were generally de
cided before any evidence upon that point had
been offered, and there was bnt little difficulty
in coming to tho final conclusion. The instruc
tions of the Judge left them no room for consid
ering the question of provocation, and bronght
the issue to one of life and death. This being
the caso, no one of the jurors was willing to say
positively, upon the evidence adduced, that the
accused was guilty of murder in the first degree.
But two members of Grant’s Cabinet were
ever in Congress—Washburne and CressweD.
Gen. Grant, says tho Cincinnati Enquirer,
“seemed to consider the fact that Congress was
now in very bad odor with tho people, and that
the less any of his appointees had to do with it
thelietter.” , • V

Hour to Plant Corn. . j
Editors Telegraph : As it is com planting j
time, it occurs to me that it might not bo amiss
to remind onr planting friends of Mr. Dickson’s
method of planting com The readers of the
Southern Cultivator, aro familiar with his sug
gestions on this snbjeot; but as very many of
your readers, possibly, do not take this valuable
Journal, and would be glad to know the plan
pursued by this “prince of farmers” as the re
sult of his experience and scientific researches j
in farming for more than twenty years, I will
take the liberty of furnishing the desired infor- •
matiou. -• - ,
Certainly, if our planters could but take a
peep at Mr. Dickson’s com cribs, still well filled
with com which ho made three years ago, and
see the abundance and even waste of that valu
able product which seems to grow around him
as if by magic, they would be anxious to leam
the secret of such success. For the benefit of
those not posted, and who feel an interest in
this all important subject, I will furnish Mr. Dick
son’s method of. precedure in his onw words,
for breaking the land and planting the crop :
“Have good turning plows, and according to
your ability, use one or two horses, and subsoil.
Ride over the field and lay off the land so that
the horses will go round on a level, and the
dirt will fall down hill. A team will break up
tho soil nine inches deep in this way as easily as
they conld seven inches on a level piece of land.
Continue to take the lands in the same way un
til the field is finished, one team following nn-
onothcr—all the time going round the circle ;
and if you subsoil, have one team between each
turning plow, running in the bottom of tho fur
row. When you finish, the field is ready for
planting, if the proper time has arrived. In
deciding this point, you must be governed
by the weather. It varies from the 10th of
March to the 1st of April. According to my
experience, a man only gains hard work, and
more of it, by very early planting.
“Now for the planting: Layoff furrows with a
long shovel plow on n level, seven feet apart.
Commence at the opposite end with a longer shov •
el and open out the same furrow. The reason for
this if, you get up to trees and stumps, and
make a better finisb at the ends. This furrow
should stand open seven or eight inches deep.
Whether yon use compost, cotton seed or gua
nos, let each hand have his three feet measure,
and deposit the manure jnst three feet apart.
Then drop the corn within three or four inches
of the manure, one or more grains, as is your
custom—dropping on the near side of the ma
nure, as the dropper goes; then with a very
light harrow cover the com one or one and a
half inches deep. The harrow should go the
same way the dropper goes to keep from pal
ling the manure on the grain.
"If you cover deep yon lose all the advanta
ges of low planting (but not of the deep break
ing) and for this reason: Com, in good weather,
will come up from a depth of one to six inches,
bnt will strike out roots about one inch from
the surface of the ground and all below that will
perish. That is one reason why I am opposed
to dirting com ns soon as it comes up—it brings
the root of the stalk to the top of the ground.”
This, Mr. Editor, is Mr. Dickson's method of
preparing the land and planting the crop. The
plan is subject to the approval or disapproval of
your many readers. We must mako our own
corn; and some change from the usual popular
system of planting is necessary, in view of our
dull labor nnd increased liability to drought.
We must guard against the effects of hot, dry
summers, and the deep plowing and deep plant-
ting, as advised by Mr. Dickson, promise the
appropriate remedy. Mr. Dickson’s plan of
cultivating I propose to give to your readers in
another communication, and earnestly invite
their attention to a calm and unprejudiced con
sideration of the same. J. Dickson Smith.

From the Millcdgrville Recorder.]
It becomes our sad and painful task to record
the death of tho senior editor of this paper, R.
M. Orme, Sen., who died on Monday, 8th inst.,
of pneumonia, after an illness of one week, in
the seventy-second year of his age, having been
bom on the Gth of August, 1797. He was per
mitted to live to see the Recorder, which he es
tablished, enter its fiftieth year, and was, per
haps, at. the time of his death, the oldest editor
in the State, and among the oldest in the United
States.
Of his character as a man and a citizen, we
do not feel disposed to speak, when we consider
the near and dear relationship he bore to the
writer of this notice. We leave that task to
other pens. But we may be permitted to speak
of him as a father, and as such, he was one
among the best of fathers. In the domestic re
lations of life, he was kind, tender and con
siderate ; and gave to his family a life unstained
and untainted by any vice, and ever impressed
by his teachings, while sitting around the do
mestic hearthstone, the precepts of virtue, truth,
integrity and religion, and fully illustrated them
by bis example. His loss to his family, they
alone know and feel. He leaves a wife and
nine children, all bnt one grown.
He died in full communion with the Presby-
teaian Church, of which ho had been a member
for over twenty years.
The late unhappy condition of our country
weighed with crushing weight upon.him, and in
his old age, he saw no silver lining to the cloud
in the future for himself. The death of many
of his old personal friends throughout tho State
—for he had many—in the last few years, grieved
him mneb, for he deeply felt their troubles and
his own; for, like them, by an nntiring energy
and a perseverance that knew no abatement in
hi3 younger days, he had accumulated around
him the comforts of life, and fondly hoped to re
tire from the cares of public life to enjoy the
rest he so much desired and coveted, but it was
not permitted him.
It may be gratifying to the readers of the Re
corder to know that he appreciated the gener
ous support given him, and ever spoke of his
subscribers in tho kindest terms, and classed
them among those of the most reliable and in
telligent in the State, for he was personally
known to the majority of them. To tho counties
that he visited yearly for the last twenty, thirty,
forty and fifty years, he became much attached,
and ever felt a lively interest in their welfare
and that of their citizens. Particularly did he
remember Newton, Jasper, Jones, Greene, Put
nam, Hancock, Wilkinson, Laurens, Montgom
ery, Telfair, Coffee, Tattnall, Decatur, Thomas,
Lowndes, and many others, having done in
them, in days past, a pleasant and profitable
business. But those who looked for him so
regularly at their courts, will seo him no more
forever, nnd as his old friends pass away, like
himself, the waves of time will wash out the
memory of his existence, and his tombstone
alone will point to his last resting place.
The good that he did through his paper will
only be revealed beyond tho grave ; and we can
but feel, though our father, that the world was
better for his having lived in it.
Farewell, my father, adviser, counsellor and
copartner; green be the turf above thee, and
sweet thy memory.

After the fight, the downy nest;

A Modern Peteb the Great.—The New York
correspendent of tho Providenco (Rhode Island)
Press, describing a modern Peter tho Great,
says “in the great ship-yard of Webb there
work a steady yonng man, whose father,
one of these days in the course of nature, will
leave a fortune so luge that it would quite turn
the brain of an ordinary young man to think of.
This young apprentice to the ship building trade
is the only heir. Early ho leaves his father's
splendid mansion on Twentieth street bright
and early, and joins the throng of hurrying me
chanics bound to their work. He is in the ship
yard busy all day, and eating his dinner from
one of those “little tin pails,” which Brick
Pomeroy writes so affectingly about. When
night comes he washes off the trace of work,
and takes his position in society.
The Newton (Iowa) Sentinel learns that Sam
uel Sparks, of that vicinity, lost a fine horse by
being killed by lightning on tho morning of the
14th. There was not the slightest appearance
of a wonnd externally; but when the animal
was opened its lungs were found to have been
literally tom to shreds.
The procession has just started from General
Grant’s headquarters. Tho General appeared
on the portico and entered a carriage, in which
was seated Gen. Rawlins. Vico President Col
fax followed and entered tho next carriage, then
came General Grant’s staff.

length, wa? headed by a regiment of cavahy
Under command of Col. Wallack.
The rain has ceased, and the prospects are
good that the remainder of the day v.-ill be fair.
When the piocession reached the Cnpitol, the
scene presented was most magnificent to behold.
The long line of military and other organiza
tions extended as far as the eye could see.
The White House, Treasury buildings, and
every available point of elevation on the house
tops and in tho trees were loaded down with hu
man beings. Not less than 75,000 people were
on Pennsylvania Avenue. Flags and national
emblems of all devices were to be seen on all
sides, the buildings being completely festooned.
When the carriages containing the President
and Vice-President arrived in front of the Capi
tol, they were received amid the deafening
cheers of the assembled multitude and escorted
to file Senate Chamber.
The scene here was brilliant in the extreme.

General Remarks.—There has been only a mod-
eratadogree of animation noticeable in toe gener
al wholesale and jobbing trade of the city since the
date of opr last weekly ieview of toe market.
In drV goods it has been one of toe dullest week3
of the season, as lhe winter stocks havo run very
low and those for too spring trade havo just begun
to arrive.
Tho money market is wholly without change since
our last weekly report and continues to work -very
smoothly with an ample supply of currency to meet
tho demands of all legitimate business. ' 4
The stock and bond market is now very quiet and
the transactions of tho week in this class of securi
ties have been of a very restricted character. Wo

Cotton.—Receipts to-day 61 bales; sales 44;
shipped 112.
Receipts for the week ending this evening, too
above included, 485 hales; sales for too some time
404; shipped 920—showing a falling off in receipts
this week from those of last of 79 bales, and in sales
of 172.
Hie movement in cotton has been of a very re
stricted character throughout the past week,
era'and sellers’ views were generally so far apart
that no heavy operations transpired on any day, and
at the present writing there is no evidence whatever
of a better understanding. Advices from Liverpool
and New York have generally been of a depressing
and circumscribed character, and the operations in
gold and exchange have steadily favored holders of
cotton. Factors, owing to the steady and rapid fal
ling off in receipts, appear to be wholly indifferent
as to the motives assigned by purchasers for refusing
to operate, however, and while toe offering supply
has been equal to tho daily demand, most of the
better cotton has boon withheld from examination
during the week. In the meantime prices have
ruled with unusual steadiness, and the varaitiens in
quotations never exceeded a fraction by way of ad
vance or decline. We quote middlings this evening
at 26^0—about the price they have been afc all too
week. Market quiet and but little offering.

Trade in this line has been rather quiet during
the most of the week under reveiw,owing to tho bad
weather which has generally prevailed and too great
activity going on in farming operations. Bacon has
been a little weak all toe week and prices have de
clined about idc per pound on all descriptions.
Corn is firm and unchanged. Flour is quiet and
there is an ample stock in the market. Sugar and
Molasses continue firm with an advancing tendency,
and the stock is getting very light. Tobacco is in
fair request, but we have still no charge to note in
prico.

house of Mr. Tucker, who lives out on toe Colum

by thieves on Tuesday night last and robbed of
a lot of bacon, and his horse stolen to carry it off
on. Tho thieves, or one of them, offered the bacon
for sale to Mrs. McKevitt, who lives near where it
was stolen, and after she had bought it, the horse
was turned lose and the thief made off with the pro- .
ceeds of the sale. A warrant was sued out against
Mrs. McKevitt, on a charge of purchasing stolen
property, knowing it to be such at toe time, and she
was brought before Justice Burnett yesterday and,
after a hearing, was discharged on payment of costs.
The horse and all the meat were recovered except

The Explosion of tiie Tallulah.—The Haw-
kinsviilo Dispatch of yesterday says:.
Just before going to press, aeon of Mr. Ike Mitch
ell brought the news to town of the explosion of
too Tallulah, at half past 12 o'clock, on Monday
last, at Lampkin's landing, seven miles below here,
while tho hands were at dinner. Cause of explo
sion not stated. Tho boat sunk in a few minutes
afterwards, and it is thought will bo a total loss.
One negro was killed and seven wounded. With
tho exception of Mr. Worrall, the superintendent,
no white person was injured. The extent of this
gentleman's injuries aro unknown, but we trust they
ore not serious.
Tho Tallulah was partially insured. She was
owned by the Georgia White Oak and Lumber Com
pany, and was built a few months ago in Macon, at
a cost, including machinery, of §12,000.
The explosion must havo been a fearful one, as
