W. I.. ULEISKBR. Editor. Sunday, lam ~ TO l’USTMASTFRS. When newspaper* arc not called for it I* mode j aud_„ !:e duty of Postmasters under llic law to notify ‘ Ilia proprietor* of this fact. Card*, already print* ed, are furnished on application to the Postmaster, whose only duty will be to fill out with the name of the party not getting the paper. A Practical Esperlineut with Fit- tllizers. Wc would call the especial atten tion of our readers to llic account, in the local column, of a series of practical experiments made with fertilisers tiyjCapt. John A. Coiili, one of our largest and most enter prising farmers. There is much that is valuable to lie learned by our furmers by this .report, and es pecially that which relates to the fertilizing properties of cotton-seed. From this report it will he seen that cotton-seed from which the oil lias hecn extracted is much more powerful ns n fertilizer than Hint in its natural state. A more powerful argument ill favor of a colton-sce.l oil mill at this point could not be ndvn iced. There are marketed in A morions each year an average ol 2,500 hales of cotton. The estimated yield of seed to each hale is thirty-live bushels, making an aggregate of 875,000 bushels. Kstimating eighty bushels of seed to the ton, wc have nearly 11,000 tons, and ns it is calculated that a ton of seed will yield thirteen' gal lons of oil, we have 140,000 gal lons of oil which is not only wasted lint worse than wasted, for the seed witli the oil extracted is worth more to onr farmers as a fertilizer than it is in its natural state, and more than most of the high priced fertilizers in the market. When the farmers ol this county learn to save wlint they raise they will be come prosperous and independent, and it is time that they are inform ing themselves as to their rc- ho:i(ccs. A Most llrlllhint Success. Wc feel pround of the following compliment from the Dawson ./««;•- hill, because it expresses the hon est .judgment of an honest man: While wc noticed the fact, some time since, that the Americas Itu- cniiiiKit laid changed hands, wc held our judgment as to the merits of the now editor, brother (Jless- ncr, in ubcyr.ncc until such time as wc should have thorough opportu nity ofdoilig tlie brother justice. We now rise to remark that the Rkcohiikii is a most brilliant suc cess under its new management, brother Gicssner's editorial on the lari If question alone is wortli thrice the amount of subscription. Uy tlie way, the Kkcoiidkii lias a gooil many subscribers in this section, brother Olessncr. Tlie new Postmaster General Inis relieved of his duties a $ 1,400 clerk, whose occupation for some months past, according to Ids own state ment, has consisted altogether of cutting out of Hie newspaper com plimentary notices of the lately retired Postmaster General and pasting them in a scrap book. So as to continue in this labor of love lie li'id commenced work on a simi lar scrap book for the new chief of Hie department. After glaueing over the book Mr. llowe ordered it to be thrown in tlie lire. The following Stales will eleet Governors this year: Alabama, Arkansas, California, Colorado, It seems that-Mr. .lames Wilson is not absolutely certain of tlie Iowa Scnatorsliip after all. The Legislature met last Monday, and the election will take place two . weeks lienee. Governor Gear,wbo SQttDJTOll Fsa^lH] is Wilson’s chief competitor, has <socwMor to J. n. Covington.)

We should like to sec how the Amorieus IIkcokiier can prove that ,— | protective tariff goes into the pock- S2. | ets of the manufacturer, while rev- ' rime larill goes into [tlie treasury.

Enquire et JOBPAN S STABLE. spectacles and give us his alien tion, we will try and show him how it is done. A protective tariff must necessa rily he so*high as to prevent tlie importation of foreign goods, so as to protect tlie home manufac turer from foreign competitions. This being tlie ease, there are no importations, and consequently there can lie no revenue. The home manufacturer, taking advan tage of tlie protection nllbrdcd him by the law, places the price of his goods at an amount that will nearly equal the price of tlie foreign goods with the high tariff added to it. Tlie difference between the price of tlie foreign article and tlie price asked by tlie home mnnufucluiTr is tin: profit which a protective tar- ill places ill the pocket of the home manufacturer. The home inanti- fucturcr pays no tariir upon his productions, and as the protective tariff prevents importations, then can be no revenue to the govern ment. For instance—tlie tariff up on some goods is liU percent. This enables the home manufacturer to gel 511 pur cent, more for his goods limn if there was no Lurin' mid yet prevent foreign niuiiufaeturers from competing wilii him. The home maiiuliietiircr, then, is ena bled to pocket this extra 50 per cent., while lie pays the national overnineiit no revenue. A tariff for revenue is necessa rily a low tariir, in order that for eign manufacturers may he enabled to compete successfully with the home manufacturers,and it encour ages importation. Under a reven ue tariff there arc generally large importations, and from these im portations tlie national government derives a large revenue, which goes into tlie treasury. In this ease tlie tariff contributes money' to tlie tresuary,while the people gulclicap- er goods. A revenue turifl also af fords incidental protection to uur home manufacturers, because they have the advantage of not having to pay any larill' on their goods, and if they can manufacture goods as cheap as foreigners the diflcr- cncc of Hie amount of tlie tariff should lie to them clear profit. Now then do you sec how it is done ? According to tlie Duller llertilil a meeting was held on .Inn. .‘id, in Untier, to devise ways and means to gel a railroad from this point via Tazewell to Duena Vista. Mar lin D. Chapman, Esq., was called to the chair and II. Moiitfo'rd, re quested to act as secretary. K. II. Waters, Esq., made a speech, and stated as his opinion Hint a road from this point via Tazewell to Hueim Vista would meet with more favor from railroad men than from any point west of til's place; as it would from this point open up a large area oflieavily timbered coun try—a thing of prime necessity to railroad men. From oilier points, while the grading would cost less, the timber is scrubby and eompar- ntivelv worthless; and aside from Connecticut, Delaware, [Kansas, | limber facilities, the road could be Kentucky, Maine, Massachusetts. Michigan, Nebraska. Nevada, New Hampshire, New York, l’ennsyl- vauin. South Carolina. Tonne .see and Texas. Ofthcsc li States have llepubliean Uoverno'-s and 7 Demo cratic Governors. Arkansas has tost her oldest in habitant. His name was Deter of lull little worth to other roads. A committee was appointed to confer with tlie Kucuu Vista and Marion county people and solicit subscriptions and report at next ■ meeting.

Kirkwood lias some ot a following, and should he be released from the Cabinet now would be likely to as sist in any combination against the administration favorite. Iowa is not an easy state for a Stalwart crowd to manage. It has twice been solid for ISkiinc in national conventions and holds pretty steadily to its laitli. In the White Sulphur Springs corrcspondenceof tbeLnGrange Ite- /airier wc Him the following: Tlie railroad excitement is get ting hold of our people again. It is a road proposed to he built from Hood to Sulphur Springs, on to Warm, then to Chaly beate Springs. They only ask for $.'15,000, and $21,000 have been subscribed and only two thousand of it from this district, the first to lie henefitted. The managers of the enterprise think that $10,000 should be given by this district. It is u separate company from the Columbus A Home road. No money is to be paid by any district until the road is built through that district. It seems a fair proposition and is meeting witli some success. ^ For ;t number ofyenrs tlie Driucc- ton factory failed to pay a divi dend, owing to the fact that it was equipped with old-style machinery and could not compete with the improved. But a year or so ago it made a partial change and the con sequence was it declared a divi dend/)!' 10 per cent. Still further changes arc being made, and the capacity enlarged, when it is thought it will earn an annual prolit of 20 per cent, on its capital stock.—Athena /tanner. ATTENTIVE HELP!
