Com vs. Cotton—Farming vs. Cotton- ! Planting. [F. 11. Moofe, in the Southern Farmers* Monthly.] I liavfc for some time been making Comparisons between the protits <l fitrtfting ami cotton planting, and I Will gite my ideas to your readers, hoping that, they may look this thing ftqfiareiy in the face, and may induce some Of them to change from all cot fOn to at least mixed fanning and planting. For vears the South has been told that it is suicidal to plant cotton to purchase corn, meat, mules, horses and other tilings needed Uy the planter, but all to no use ; for each year the idea has been entertained by every one that every one else, save himself, would quit, raising cotton, and that the price would be large and he would get riclf, and last year the price was remunerative, and all went in for the last acre that could be cultivated, and ruin billowed. And, so far as the general prosperity of the country is concerned, it makes no difference whether the price of cotton is eight cents or twenty cents. As every dol lar goes up North to pay for what we buy. This course will bring ruin and poverty as sure as time runs. The sun does not shine upon a land, nor never will, that became a prosper ous country that depended entirely on the plow and the Ime to make mane}'. Farming, even at best, pays but poor wages, and the fact that the farmer raises some stock and his own food is his only chance for making money. In making the comparison between corn and cotton. I shall take the river bottom of the Mississippi valley, and suppose the comparison will bold good in other sections, and will take low middling cotton as a sample, as that is the quality we make. A good crop for a good man that will put in his time well is eight bales, or 4.000 lbs., lint, cotton (the average is less than 5.000. but I will take the largest crop) Low Middling is worth now in New Orleans nine and one-fourth, whieli is eight cents nctF Four thousand lbs.* of cotton at eight cents will he $320 Now, the same labor that it required to cultivate and pick this 4,000 lbs. of cotton will make 2.000 bushels of corn worth now in New Orleans sixt.y-th-ee cents per bushel by the car load. This corn can he taken to New Orleans and put in the elevator by barges for six cents per bushel, ami seven cents will more than cover the cost of shelling and selling, leaving a net profit of 50 cents per bushel, or SSOO, making a difference of SIBO in favor of the corn. Now, if peas were planted in the corn at the last plowing they would fatten one hog to each acre, making at least, $5 per acre. But I am aware that, some planters will say that they rent their land and can get more net money per acre with cotton than with corn. If they will make a fair calculation of the cost of each ami charge up to cot ton the waste of the negro and give the corn credit for the improvement in the land, then they will find that the corn pays double the rent that cotton does. In mv vicinity planters are paying $1 per bushel for corn on a credit, pay able out- of the next fall crop. If cot ton should sell for seven cents net. it, will require 14 2-7 pounds of cotton to pay for one bushel of corn. If a man can exchange his 2.000 bushels of corn lor cotton at these figures, he will get 14,570 pounds of cotton for his crop of corn, or about thirty six bales of cot ton ; in other words, we send thirty-six bales of cotton up North to pay for the corn that one man can make. Is there any wonder that we are as poor as a church mouse ? And Bill Arp Is about right when he says, ** I am afeered we are a nation of tools.” There lias long been an impression up North, and even in the South, that, we can’t raise stock to profit—that we have no grass—on n’t, feed st>ek—that the flies are too bad—that we have too many diseases; while the fact is, we have more and better grasses than the North has. AVe can raise hogs, cattle, sheep, mules and horses for one-hall the cost that it requires up North. And to fatten the stock for market, it can he done with peas even on the poor land of Georgia for less money than it can be done in the North, and while we are raising stock we are im proving our lands instead of wearing them out. I am well aware tlfcrc is a strange fascination In planting cotton. We see in the spring that S4O a bale, and ten bales of cotton to the hand, but from some cause we can’t see the ex pense attending the making of the crop. A few days since I saw an article in an lowa paper telling of the sale of seventy five hogs by one man, all of his own raising and fattening, for si)B7. or about three times as much as can be made by one man cultivating cotton. I sec also an item in the New Orleans Times of a planter who fat tened 600 head of lmgs, making bO.OOO pounds of pork, which he soldjor $4,. 500, nearly the whole of which was net profit. Had he made this into baron, it wonld be worth now $6,000, which is a nice income. Brother planters, there is an easier and better way to make money than by planting cotton to buy meat and bread. Kxistixo Follies. —Many of our farmers aro buying large quantities of fertilizers at high prices, who annually permit tons of manure to go to waste alsmt their baruvards. The accumula tion of filth and manure should be hauled away from the barn and yard, and it is much better to make it serve as a fertilizer than not. AVe advocate the use of commercial fertilizers only when there is not manure in sufficient quantities. The use of poor farming implements will be found to be far more expensive to the husbandman than would the purchasing of the best quality on the market. The cheap im plements will be constantly requiring to be repaired. They bring a source of expenditure without any income. I have frequently seen hands lose the greater part of a day in repairing the implements with which they were at i Win k, and at the same time the work i NEW STOCK AT TIIE OLD STAND !

Italy has a remarkably iarge and line crop of grapes this year; the vintage Lakes place in October, and the prospect of an abundant, supply of wine lias filled the hearts of the peasants with gladness. Mussulman pilgrims now go to Mecca by Mediterranean steamers, instead of making the long caravan trips; hut the greater the fatigue in eidenttotheland trip the more pleasing is the devotee in the sight of God and Mohammed. The Boycotting principle has found its way into Russia, where it is being applied to the Jews. The Germans residing in a district near Odessa have decided, by formal resolution, that any member of their community letting lodgings to the Jews shall be fined fifty raubles. Germany has the most accommoda ting of Fost Ollices. It dailly trans mits birds, beast,s anti fishes, if of a harmless sort. A goose, unintelligi bly directed, was lately put tip for auction sale, when $875 was found under its leftpinion. The sender has not been discovered. Methodism in Chicago is in an up roar in consequence of the Thomas heresy trial. It is said that three conspicuous etergyinen of the Chicago Conference can be convicted on one or another of the charges sustained in the case of Dr. Thomas, and that pro sccutions arc to begin at once. Buffalo Bill introduces real Indians in his plays, and they are expected to let him heroically vanquish them ; hut. in a Chicago performance one of them was drunk, and refused to fall when the sco it struck him a sham blow. In stead, he tried to use .is tomahawk, and had to be dragged off the stage. Mrs. Staples was boastful of her crime whe put into jail for the mur der of her husband at Colwell. New Mexico ; but during her first night in a cell, as she believed, the dead man came to her. cursed her for what she had done, and commanded her to hang herself, which she did on the follow ing day. The help already given to the Michi gan sufferers, together with the promise of more, has saved many a farm to its owner. Immediately after the fire, speculators hurried into the burned over district with cash, expecting to lie able to buy the land at trifling prices; but the farmers, encouraged by the prompt assistance, have declined to sell. An unpleasant sensation has been caused in Bristol, England, by the dis overy that a cargo of 300 tons of hu man bones had been lauded there to the order of a local firm of manure manufacturers. The bones were ship ped at Rodosto and Constantinople, and are the remains principally of the defenders of i’levna. llair still ad heres to some skulls. A girl nt Anderson. Ivy., desired a new hat|trimmed profusely with bright* colored feathers, according to the ruling fashion, but mui no tnot.&y to buy them. A brilliant-lined rooster •ame her vrtiy, ami she killed him plucked his feathers, and adorned the •iat exactly to her liking. I’ut ti e owner of the fowl had her arrested, and she wore tho hat, in court instead of church, as she had intended. Without doubt the only stonecutter in the whole world with sldth-iont as surance to court a widow while en gaged in the very act of recording upon monumental marble the virtues of the late lamented lives in Louis ville, Kentucky. and liis name is Ben jamin Fefguson. The courtship ad vanced more rapidly than the tion. and when the laiter was only half completed the former ended in a wedding. The elegiac pair are now taking tho cu-itomarv jowrnew but the stonecutter has agreed to finish the epitaph as soon as they return. The New York WortJ calls alien tion to the fact that on Tuesday looming last flags of mourning floated at half mast from 57 ocean steamships, 53 ships, 246 barks. 40 brigs and 189 schooners lying in the port of New York, making a total of 594 vessels ; and that the ocean steamers every one, and of theother vessels two thirds, displayed the flags of foreign powers. This display marked two mournful events in the Irstory #f this country the death of our ocean commerce at the hands of the party in power; as well as the death of our President at the hands of one of his partisans. Theqnestion the Itus sian capital from St. Petersburg to Moscow is being agitated in the Rus sian newspapers. r ßhe wannest advo cates of the project are44te Punslavisi s, who look upon St. Petersburg, as the typical representative of the - trait orous reforms’’ of lb-ler the .Great, arid FIRE PROOF MESSENGER BOXES upon Moscow as the true centre of Russian patriotism. On the other side it is urged that tbe history <d’ Russia as a great European power date* from the foundation of St. PeteisLurg. and that the patriotism of Moscow is merely of a local or provincial kind. St. Petersburg is not only the seat of the imperial court, but of Russia's social and literary world. The Galveston News l*awt* of Texas iron and declares that iron will soon become one of the most promising In dustries of the “ Lone Star State.” Ofe has been found in Cherokee, Clarion. Rusk, Smith, Upshur and other conn tics and. in fact, is abundant through out the State. There is as yet onlv one furnace in Texas—at Jefferson. It tins' recently been turning out iron for tbe Marshall Car and Foundry Company, which declares it to be equal to the best; on tlic continent. The Texas Pacific is now using car win els made of this iron, which the master machinist of the company declares is splendid, close grained, smooth, strong, and. posses sing the finest chilling qualities. The only drawback to the development of the iron of Texas has been the lack of accessible coal. As soon as coal can be found—and there is ever} 7 reason to believe that it can be foimd all over the State—buried perhaps a little deep j —Texas will take a high place in the i rank of iron producing States.
