It will then be time enough to dispone of them.” A Correction. Wo Are in roceipt of a communica tion In which tho writer complains that we hare done injustice to an esti mable young lady in Cherokee county, by stating, in a recent issue of our pa per, that we were credibly informed that she was in the habit of taking frequent rides on horseback in com pany with a negro. We are totally u> acquainted with the party, and on ly mentioned what was told us by a resjionsible, Christian gentleman, who lives iu the neighborhood, and whoso name we can give if necessary. It is not our intention to do injus tice to any one, and wo take great pleasure in giviug lo the public the statement furnished by our c»»ire sjxMident, and hope it will be satisfac tory to the aggrieved young lady and her friends. Our correspondent, writing from Barnwell, S. C., says: " Die circumstances are these: The \ mug lady iu question, a few woek-t ago, weut fr<Hn this State and county where she had been laboring for uiue month*, as teacher, to f pend her three month* vacation with her parents who live in Cherokee county, Gu. Her health hud become slightly impaired by constant application to her duties, and her anxious mother suggested rill ing on horseback as perhaps the best exercise for her. The young lady knew but little about riding, henco tlio necessity of some ouo to accompany her. Her brother cannot at all times find time to do so, and in order that someone shall bo uear in case of acci dout, her cautious mother vtu*y proper ly sends along with her a trusty and respectful house boy as au attendant, not a large bwk nigger , as your corre spondent has it. And thus ends this story of sfx'iat equality, that has such a wonderful effect upon the sensitive nerves of jour correspondent. Respectfully, A Friekd of the Family.” We hope that the above correction aud explanation will be publishod, so far as is necessary, iu order that am ple justioe may bo done.

The C.rcHl Snuff and Tolmeen Hen Don't Warn I Southern Trade. In a conversation ft (lay or two since with a prominent tobacco merchant of this city, and a gentleman who stand** high ns u Christian and an honest man, be told us that on a recent vi»it to New York, be went into the great tobacco f ietorv of Hie Lorillards. The i ••bjec.l of his visit wuh to make sons x enaive pureh.ises of siuiff and to bueco, ns he, like nenrly every dealer in the South, had tr ded more or less 1 .vith this firm. Before making his pin chases, be informed the business man of the concern that be had been solicited by the Lee Monument Assoei at ion to establish ngenreis in that ci’.y for the sale of the picture of that im mortal hero, and in tho course of n business transaction, asked the mana ger if be would not subscribe for one. b’or a reply he received the following, given in a most abrupt and insulting manner, -‘Sir, I would not permit the picture of such a traitor and rebel to come into my house, if I knew it— much less to encourage the building of a monument to his in- m <ry by paying my money for it. I think it uu insult for you to ask me to do such a thing.” The Atlantiau asked Mr. Loriliard if he di«l not care f.»r the Southern trade. To which he replied, that lie would not give one cen for it. It is unnecessary to ndd that the gentleman felt insulted at the remarks, and changed his mind about purchas ing the goods. Would it not be a good idea for • >ur merchants, in ordering goods in lino, to remember this insult to our section? The Lorillards have striven harder than any otln r house of its class to obtain onr trad *, and have grown rich u]M>n it. Hardly a house through out the country but what has a flashy card of these men hanging in their stores as uu advertisement for their goods. The spunky old gentleman referred to in this artii lo immediately wrote home to his partners to take down all such signs, and uever }ierunt ouo of them to be put up again. We have heard of several otner gen tlemen in the country doing the same thing, and will cease to trade with any bouse which offers such an insult to the noble dead. —Atlanta Sun.

Let the good work go on, for it is much needed iu i these corrupt and degenerate times. t&T The corn crop in Cherokee county has recently suffered serious ! injury from heavy winds. We learn I that a gre .t pari of it is lying pros trate, and is in danger of rotting, if the heavy rains coutiuue and it is not j gathered soon. Taken altogether, the present year has been one of disasters ; and farmers have labored under many difficulties ; yet things might lie icorae, aiul all should take courage aud be thankful.

Telegraph sends !his broadside into the trilx* of nil cot ton on-the-brain planters: Planters generally understand their business. As here may bo few, how ever, who do not, we offer them a little gratuitous advice. It. is a well settled maxim, that corn grown in the West is better than that grown here. It comes further, and goes further, grain for grain. Asa crop for twelve or thirteen months, corn will not answer at all. Planted in March, you can’t work it safely after June, and you are bound to get it out of the field in October or November, at the farthest ; otherwise it will rot. Asa manure for next year’s crop, peas, or cotton is much better. Corn is objectionable, because it does not need any bagging or ties ; you can’t send your wagons to mar ket fifty or sixty miles if you raise corn, and bring back pork, bacon, lard, etc. Corn is a good provender for stock, but not so good as cotton seed, and they are just tho thing to make soou pork of pigs. In tho spring when the weather is not warm, and tho earth loose and dry as in summer, corn must necessn ily be worked. It will not wait, and go through 44 Juno sweat,” like cotton. Horses and cows grow much fat tor on cotton blooms than green corn, and a roasted cotton boll is superior as an article of diet to a roasting ear. Little children will ciy before they are out of 44 their little beds” for roast ed cotton bolls. Try it. In summer, fall and winter, yon will lmve very little lo do, if you plant corn. You will be conqx lied to keep your hands employed to improve your fences, set out orchards, raiao stock, build out houses and lots, and do oth er wholly unnecessary thiugs, so as to kill time until tho uoxt planting season opens. Or, if you prefer it, you may reduce yoiu laboring force, and curtail your pay roll. This, how ever, is never desirable to a country where there are no taxes to pay—like ours for instance. Il is a result of growing corn, that tho country always has a surplus stork of poultry, of meat, and some money to lend at interest, or to invest iu public works. It is much belter to buy provisions in the West for cash, to operate at home on a credit, with one eye on bankruptcy, and to appeal to foreign capitalists to build your railroade, etc. It is a grand thing to have a com mission merchant, and support him lil »ei*:«lly-—and let your old minister ; and Id* horse starve ! 44 What’s the price of cotton ?’’ How could you ever ask that question, till ing your mouth with the words, if you should make a fool of yourself by raising n Hood crop of corn ? People would laugh at you. And how could you ever draw a draft and lmve the thrilling pleasure of having your draft 44 protested ?” “My father’s house,” said a little boy to another, “is finer than your father’s, because it has a cnpuloon it.” “ No it is not finer,” retorted the other, 4 because my father’s house has got a mortgage on it.” If you raise plenty of corn, you will never get to the emi nence of a mortgage on your house, and you will die without a big succes sion for the lawyers and courts to light over. No Restating tli© Women. A Berlin correspondent of the New York Nation relntes tho following ns having come under his own observa tion : 44 On the entry of one of the Montz regiments, (the eighty-seventh, which was recruited iu Nassau,) I witnessed a little incident which is worth being narrated hero. Tho regiment was on its way to the Sehlosplatz, when a stout, resolute peasant woman broke through the ranks, put away the officer at the head of his squad, and embraced her husband, loudly crying, 44 He lias belonged to you long enough, now he is mine once more, and you will never get hold of him again P When the other women standing , along the street, and eagerly watching for their turn, noticed this unceremo nious procedure, tliero was no longer any re-strumt ; they all broke into tbe lines, and each one seized her son, husband or sweetheart. The Captain could not «l< 'end himself agaiust this invasion, and good naturedly suffered to pass what- he could not stop, and ; led Ir.s men and women to the Belli os- | plptz, where, amid the cheering of tho! people, the women assist'd tho sol-; •hers in unstrapping their knapsacks, j r In Id their needle-guns, while in the ! otlnr hand < aeh curiud a bundle of j modest citizen’s clothes, and afterward! all ato and drank merrily together.” We clip the following item l from the Courier Journal: Mr. Josiah Newnan, an officer in' the Young Meu’s Christian Assoeia ; tion, at N wton, L. 1., left home quite ! suddenly the other day. The most curious part of the story is that he j got six or eight htiudred miles from I home before he found out that the woman he had taken with him wasn't his wife. At least wo suppose ho ; didn’t find it out any sooner, or he ! surely would have carried her back. ) 5 .. «• ' ‘ The Atlanta Constitution says that | the investigation has disclosed the fact , j tluit the lab* Treasurer of the State' 1 lioud ha* about $50,000 in his hands l rom the Tennessee papers we lenrn that general religious awaken ing is taking place throughout the State. More interesting amt protract ed meetings seem to have been con ducted in various localities than for mitliy years. So numerous have been the meetings, nnd wide t j, e for the good work, theta scarcity of min isterial labor is the only want. *‘ well known New Orleans Munster, walking along the street a few days siutv, met a lady for whom he had recently performed the mar riage service. Desiring to renew the acquaintance (for the la iv had inter est, and him greatly nt the time,) be ac costed her with tho remark : "Madam, did l not have the pleas ure of marrying you a few days since?” ‘I was married a few days since sir ’ "Yes- I thought I was not mista ken. I married you.’ “Indeed ! \\\ H, J thought my hus band was a much younger man than you are; but I have not seen enough of him to make his acquaintance thor oughly. By the way, my dear, my chignon is getting shabby; please give ine some money to buy* a water-fall. Evidently this was more than the minister bargained for, and with a hasty Ihiw, accorapained by "No, you arc not the lady—l’m mistak in,” he took his leav.— lndex. A pious negro woman was once caught by her master stealing a goose, and the next Sunday partook of the communion, after which tho master ac costed her us fallows: ‘‘Why, Hannah. I saw you to-day at the couimuniou table.” "Yes, tank de Lord, inassa, I was lowed to be dar wit de rest of His family.” ‘‘But., Hannah, I was surprised to see y< >u there,” lie said. ‘‘How is it about the goose ?” She looked a little surprised, as if she did not understand tho question but catching the meaning exclaimed : ‘‘Why. sab, do you think I’se a gwine to let au old goose stand atween me and my Maker ?” Punch told the story some years since of a man who loaned an umbrel la to a friend—a tradesman iu the street, on a wet, nasty day. It was not returned, and on another wet dis agreeable day, he called for it, but found his frioud at the doqf going out with it iu his hand. ’‘l’ve come for my umbrella," ex claimed the loaner. ‘‘Can’t help that,” exclaimed the Iwirrower, ‘‘don’t you nee that I am going ont with it ?” ‘‘Well—yes,” replied tho lender, ns tonished at such outrageous impu dence—yes, ‘‘but what am l to do?” ‘•Do ? ’ replied the other, as he threw up the top and walked off—“Do as I did, borrow.” i CoNfiUMPTio n. —Recent statistics show that 311,000 deaths occur annu ally iu England from consumption and j the number of jvatients constantly suf fering from its wasting effects is esti , muted ut 78,000.

Exuberant Health Is a blessing vouchsafed to few. Even those who have been favored by nature with strong constitutions and vigorous frames are apt to neglect the precautions necessary to preserve these precious endowments. In deed, as a rule, the most healthy and robust a man is, the more liberties he is inclined to take with his own physique. It is some consolation to the naturally weak and feeble to know that they can be so invigorated and built up, by a proper use of the means which science has placed at their disposal, as to have a much better chance of longlife, and exemptions from disease and pain, than the most athletic of their fellows who arc foolish enough to suppose themselves invul nerable, and act accordingly. It is not too much to say that more than half the people of the civilized world need an occasional tonic, to enable them to sup port the strain upon their bodies and minds, which the fast life of this reckless age occa sions. In fact, pure, wholesome, unexciting tonic is the grand desideratum of the busy millions, and they have the article in Hos tetter’s Stomach Bitters. Kt is a stnminal medicine, i. e. it imparts permanent strength to weak systems and invigorates delicate constitutions. Its reputation and its sales have steadily increased. Competitive pre parations have been introduced ad libitum. and, as far as the public is concerned, ad tim/xrum, in the hope of rivaling it; but they have all either perished in tho attempt, or been left far in the rear. It has been the great medical success of the present centu ry, and it is quite certain that no proprieta ry medicine in this country is as widely known, or as generally used.
