Raise Provisions and Thrive— liaise only Cotton and Starve! It is high time for every farmer and planter in (he Cotton States, to pause and reflect seriously on the past, the present and the future. A large por tion of the people of Georgia, arc now fed on Northern bread and meat, and are clothed with Northern fabrics. \V e are essentially an agricultural people. When nti agricultural people have to Luy their victuals and clothes, they are fast going to ruin. Already there are thousands starving in our" midst— we are literally begging for provisions to save their lives, and if we continue to depend on cotton, times will get worse instead of better. The Cotton crop does net appear to do any good. It does not feed or clothe the pror. — It does not go to pay honest debts.— It all goes to the North to buy provi sions and gew £awsnnct furbelows, that u few empty headed men may sport fast horses and fine carriages through our streets, and a few vain and foolish women may parade their finery', and be called fashionable ladies. It is a burning shame, for any Southern wo man now to try to ape the Northern fashions. It shows a want of heart and soul, for her to talk of fashions, and waste hundreds and thousands of dollars in frivolity, when there are hundreds around her suffering for bread. In many cases also whilst she is flaunting through the streets, her father or husband, owes for the house lie lives in, and for the very fine clothes she wears. If our farmers and plant ers would turn their chief attention to raising provisions, these things would not exist. The provisions would feed our own people, and save in the coun try millions of dollars which are now sent to the North to buy food, whilst all the proceeds of the cotton crop by' spring has vanished “ like the morn ing cloud and the early dew.” If there are men in the country that havu money to invest, let them invest it in cotton factories and not in merchan dise. Cotton factories is a Safe and sure investment, if well managed ; and whilst Radical legislation, taxes cot ton, it favors manufactures, ami they can’t legislate in favor of manufactures at home, without favoring Manufac tures at the South. If we cannot change their legislation, we can and must change our business so as to take advantage of their legislation. Thank God our climate does not depend upon the Radicals, and our God-protected climate enables us to vary our pur suits, so Hint we can take advantage of Radical legislation. —Milledncvillc Federal Union. . Not a Had Flan. —The South Ca rolinian is for starving the North into just and honorable terms, and thinks the ladies of the South can do the -work. It says : What Woman Can Do. —ls she will serve hrr country by a sacrifice of expensive clothing ; if she will show her loveliness in homespun ; fashion her slave instead of being a slave to fashion ; give employment to our own people as was done during the war; keep the spinning wheel buzzing and cotton cards at work in humble homes; buy home manufac tures in preference to those -procured from abroad ; content herself with be ing neat and not gaudy ; drop all such gimcracks as artificial watei fails, the taseelled thingamies which go ground the hole end of stockings, and what Wood Davidson calls “ the veritable overshot-high-'pressurc--perper.dieula’r- vibrating-duplex and eaUdiptie-kiicc plus-ultra-tiltareens if she will make up her mind to go only half way to the war standard ; induce her hudbnnd to plant corn and -fill his.mcat house— in short, if she will by every and all means contribute to stop the supplies that now fill Northern*coffers with the best part of their stock in*trado, the South co n produce a financial convul sion, out of which pence wii] come. Since the surrender of I,ce’s army, probably, two bundled millions of dol lars have been sent to the North by the South,- and three-fourths of that amount has gone into the hands of our enemies. We have whetted the knife that is at our throats, and the timo has come when we should stop severely. Lord Brougham. —A late I’aris letter says :—“ The venerable Lord Brougham, now* verging on his nine tieth year, passed through I’aris sev* eral weeks ago, on his wn.y to bis plea. sant,villa in the vicinity of Cannes, in the South of France, lie is still a sprightly, vigorous, clear-headed old man, still retaining much of that fire which used to wake his antagonists in the House of Commons more than 50 years ago. 7?ut, admonished that his time of puhiic service is passed, he has just taken his leave of the literary and forensic world, in a letter address ed to a member of the French Insti tute, conveying to him a copy of his address at the last English social Con gress. The parting advice to the world from the veteran statesman and schol ar is, to live in peace—to beware of royal murderers—‘lilro Napoleon the First;’ meanwhile, he accords high praise to the present ruler of France for his pacific and enlightened policy. He insists that wars are wicked and fruitless, and always retards vilization. And so the great Henry Brougham, who has been almost constantly in men's mouths for considerably more than half a century, passes from the stage. Few men have left more nu merous or more substantial memorials of iamc. When wc -look back upon that long career, so full and so varied, vre cannot but marvel at the extraor dinary genius of the man—excelling, as he did, in legal lore, in oratory, in science, in political philosophy, in moral theses, and in various depart ments of physical knowledge. 11c has now gone, of his own accord, into his> tory, and the biographer has a heavy task in sketching his past life. jlonflimi Enterprise V~( SEMI-WEEKLY.) ~ L.

At a meeting on the 28th ultimo, of the citizens of Thomasville, hastily call ed together, on the state of the coun try, and after considerable discussion, the whole sul-jcgt was referred to a meeting of the citizens of the County j to meet on Saturday next, 2nd instant, at the Court House, at lOoclock, a. m. | Wiley Blfavett, ■ Chairman , L. Dekle, Secy. MEETING IN THOMASVILLE. Under the influence of Ex-Gov. j Brown’s letter to the people of Geor gia, which we will publish hereafter, a j meeting was gotton up in Thomasville J last night, speeches made by several j gentlemen and resolutions drafted, rc- j viewing the situation, and petitioning ! Gov. Jenkins to call a State Convention ! for the adoption of measures in accord ance with the views of Gov. Brown. The i action of the meeting finally termina- l ted in the call of a County Convention to-rinyrow, for the purpose of giving force and character to the movement, and embodying the views of those who are taking the lead. We were npt present at the meeting and only write, what we received from others, but it will not be amiss to state, that the I movement was advised by Col. Sesvard, who, we understand agrees with Gov. Brown, and addressed the meeting last night, ably and eloquently reviewing the history of the country, and coun seling immediate action on tli« part of the people of the South, in order to save themselves from that worse fate alluded'to by Gov. Brown, the final ; “ confiscation of' all our property to ! pay the public debt.” We have no ! room for comment either upon the let ter or the meeting, in ourpreseut issue. WIIAT SHALL WE DOj> We publish entire the bill passed by the Radical Congress for the com plete subjugation and humiliation of the South. It is a measure which had its origin in the Jean of the Radicals, that the South migjjt yet arise from the dust and ashes of the late w r ar, and j present herself a formidable opponent in the halls of Congress. To place it j entirely and forever beyond her power, j to thus confront them again in their j .violation and ruin of American Lib- | orty, they hnvo reeolve-l upon tl-e tulnl destruction of her political influence in the government of the country. The ; bill referred to is well calculated to [ perform the work, provided the South- 1 ern peoj/h allow themselves to fall into | despair, and giving up all industrial 1 pursuits become demoralized ; b'ut if true to themselves, the Southern peo- pica ill not long suffer by such ini qnitious, wiM-Amoricnu mOßUtcs. The blow is intended to crush Southern society, for iu that.alone ,lo the Radi cals recognize our" invulnerability.— lJteak up and demoralize Southern society, aud, our political power is ef fectually ended. But this cannot be done if OtlY people will bold out Lrrith fullr, and pSticntly suffer whtfro they eanuot remedy, until the tide of fanati cism and tyranny turns back. Tyrants are always in desperate'straits, and in consequence, pGss«de»pqr*tc measures. They strike, blindly and desperately to annihilate, but tire tlvemgclvca anifihi lated. The Radical pynver must of necessity exhaust-itself in a brief pe riod, and then, under the crushing weight of the return oT the American people to common sense and common justice, both the Radical faction in L'ongress, ami the negro power they set up in the Bouth by this bill, will pass away as disturb nig elements in American polities. At present, how ever,'the Radicals are triumphant and SambO reigns supreme where once he was a slave. What then arc we, his former masters to do'! 1 If wo have Court# and Juries Sambo must ho our Judges and Jurors, or if not Saiplio,- tlien his Radical elevators, who do not seem.to oqnal lifoi in justice and hu manity. The justice a degraded ft.hcl might expect in such Courts would be extremely doubtful, and hero we'hnvc advised the Southern people to settle their differences among thenmelvcs, without appeal to tho Courts. Ust them consider jho matter. . . But we have other means of avoid ing conflict with tho Radicals and their agents, whether white or black. They have already devoted so much of their time, blood and "money to the adjustment of our difficulties, that we ought to excuse them for the future and for tho lyvo of -our departed heroes, and the good of our posterity, try and manage our own affairs without calling in their aid. To this end lot us trou ble them-up more with our Cotton, tobacco and rice. Wo ought, iu gra titude for their long service, spare them the trouble of shipping our produce to Europe and the North, and in as much as they condescend to allow us to cul tivate the sod of our fathers, and gra ciously promise t» protect us in right of our property, guaranteed by the Constitution, we ought to release them from all further obligation to carry oft' the proceeds of our lab-nt and ourselves take immediate steps to be come oer own guardians—open trade direct with Europe, and make all our purchases of those Uouthuu houses I who have invested their capital in di [ rect European trade. Europe can come' to the South to buy Cotton, as easily as she can Jo to the North, and . she will do it, if we invite her. If the ! North wants cotton sell it to her, of course, but let her pay in gold on the same footing with Europe, and let the money be invested in Southern manu factories. Build up these and we shall ! then outstrip the North, and compel all the world to come to the South, not ' for Cotton, but for Cotton goods. — These manufactories wilt bring Ma chinists, Artizans —population—and population political power, and politi ; cal power fear and respect at home and abroad. Tbcsc are the elements which | conquered the South in (lie late war. ! The North possessed all the manufao* | tories of the country —they brought wealth and population—she built and j kept all the shipping, she sold us all our goods and provisions—and what | did the South do? She made Cotton. \ Alas 1 atid Cotton (though famed a king) was her ruin. And it-will he her efil genius forever, unless the Southern people make their own pro visions, and manufacture their Cotton in the South. Our people have made Cotton for many years, and what is their expericncc--have they any capi tal, or have they added to the wealth of the South 'I Have not the merchants carried the mo’ncy for all their cotton lack to the North '! It has been truth fully said, “ all we get by making Cotton is our victuals and clothes.” Tell us, friends, is it not true ? Then, why not make your own provisions '! temperance speech. ! ftev. J.W. Mills, P. E. of this ! District, delivered a temperance speech at the Court house on Wednesday ; night last, to a large and attentive ! audience of our citizens, and his suc cess may be judged by the result. A Society was immediately organized for Thomasville, officers ducted and many persons obtained as members. This t is a good work, and we sincerely hope lit will prosper. Bro. Mills must par don us for the omission to announce ! his lecture in the Enterprise, and at tribute it to forgetfulness alone. The Secretary must, also pardon u.s for not publishing the proceeding of the or ganization this week. We bad more matter on hand than could be managed for the. present issue and -they were compelled to lieoycr for next Tuesday. THE SHOW COMING ! Mike Lipman with his famotis show of Th.vinri> Animals, Ac., Ac., ; Ac., &c., is coming, and will bo ex | hibited here on the Btli of March, as, | will be seen by advertisement. Alike I is opt afraid of territorial bills., Tliad j -Stevens, hard fiines nor bad weather. I Our exchanges are full ol .high enco miums upon the great success ho has every where met with, and declarp his show entertaining in a very high de- j grcc. Thomasville is a great place for shows ol all kinds. They are very j popular here and rousing audiences can at all times be obtained. Little, j big, young aud Old, white and’ black, ■ all go to the shows, with few excep tions. The whole County, like a bee hive swarms in Thouunvillc on show day, and Sambo is absolutely frantic with delight. The only harm we wish all show men, is, that they were coin- | pellod to spend all the money they made in the places where they obtained it. ■ ALEXANDER 11. STEPHENS.

Tho Agricultural Situation. X season is past and another crop of .eottcni .lias been added to the records, but as far as its visible effects can be seen on" tho wealth —of "t'#r Southern country, it had as well not been made. A million bales has bean counted, worth At least a hundred millions of dollars. Rut it has gone —gone.glim- mering to help other people, and en rich otlrefjppckifs:-. There is nothing left of it. Xo more money is in the -South than before it was gathered.— Sonio.iiiay ask, where is it ?, Wo point them so, the huge heaps *>f freight and .produce daily lan fowl, at the wharf,and .which,, the moment it touches the shore, is wheeled a fray to tiifc railroads and coast stetmiers to feed the farming people. There is the answer to Where has the cotton gone? ’ Y.crtly, wc. are working omy for our victuals and clothes, and unless a different policy is adopted by our. country people, and tho arriculfurai situation is changed that is all we will ever get. Is it not possible for us to learn wisdom from past experience 'l lias not fifty years experiment pointed out the proper course to follow ? Look at the thousands (4‘ millions worth of the Southern product that Was paid for in gold, and how much of it remained at the time of the unfortunate separa tion of the States. m Not even enough could bo found to satisfy the desires of the people’s Butler. Is tlfisalways to be the ease, or is there a time com ing when the clink of something pure —some surplus will be left to delight us with its glitter and charm the oar w'dh the now ijmost forgotten sound ? The suggestions presented in the. above extract from the Now Orleans Picayune, relating to the present agri cultural sitaatiou of the Sotith, com-. In end themselves to the con sideration of every planter. They demonstrate beyond question ihat if we would improve on the present, we must make our breafl and moat first, -and then give the rest of onr time to cotton. In that way only car- any advance be made tram our present de plorable condition. If the entire ri'outh could Le induced to-adopt a self sustaining policy by milking their own food and raiment, and devote the balance of their time to the cult ure rs the staple, no people, on earth would be as rich and independent as wo would soon be. As the Picayune says, no people can be self-supporting halt so easily as the people of the South.— Every thing that is needed can be easily fertile hero. 9 * Then, why not pursue the policy which admonishes our planting people to grow their own corn and make tl.clr own bread and meat. Do’tlris first, and give up (lie exploded idea that “ cotton is king.” Would in not bo belter economy, too, to ;ut in a gooj breadth of rye lor feeding stoSk in the spring, than to half starve them, or buy so much Western corn and hay ? Would not a smaller number of acres planted in cotton, properly, thorough ly 4'ertalized and cultivated, yield nibre profit*than double the number nut ar tificial fertilizsdamd thoroughly culti, vafgd '/ We are confident it would, with the additional advantage of re qnirifig hut about one-half the amount of labor. We think flicso views are worthy of general adoption, and wc would pu-s* them upon the favora ble consideration of our country readers especially. It would cost less to buy l'erjilizCrs than to hire, a double force of latn-f in order to product a given quantity, to say nothing of the surplus land upon which tax has to be paid, and which might, be sold off to other farmers. The - paramount and first interest of every Soutjiern community is that it should be st’lf-subsisting.— There are no figures however specious that can •prove it to be wise for an ag ricultural people to derive their bread stuffs or meat in any notable quantities beyond their own limits. — Saeannah Herald. B-i6"Tlic unsettled condition of the country is a great draw back to South ern industry and enterprise. Men do 'not feel that their property is safe They btTieva the Yankees are deter mined to mb them. The wealthy are very much exercised to find a sale place for their property. There is n place where treasures will be -a tin/y safe from the Yankees ' lie.t the tjiu-\s arc getting squally, and editors must be careful whut they say, so wc will only refer the reader tor information to the G,'/i chapter and 2U//’i cise of St. Matthew. — Federal Union.
