Cards, already print ed. are furnished on application to the Postmaster, whose only daty will he to fill out with the name f the party not gottlog tho paper. GOOD TRUCK FARMING. Mr. Andrew Burkkaltcr, a well known citizen of Aiken, made dar ing the past year from two acres of garden track and two acres of melons, $600 in cool cask. Tkis is decidediy better than wasting ones nervous and physical energy on planting cotton and coming oat at the end of the year in debt for pro visions and gunno. Mr. li. runs n successful cotton farm also; hut his margins nrc small on this part of bis investment, although lie makes as One a crop as anybody. Why cannot some our farmers try this profitable kind of farming? Let them try a few acres in con nection with their cotton crops, and see for themselves the relative profits of the two kinds of farming The Charleston News and Courier gives the protectionists a hard lick ill the following extract: “As long ns manufacturers nrc blind to the charms ol n wide and open market, and the unprotected farmer and professional man, and the vnst mass of consumers are willing to endure the burden of taxation which they have the power to re move, the improvement of the tariff ' will be difilcult to accomplish. There never was a greater mistake, however, than to suppose that Southern manufactures, especially cotton spinners, must depend for success on a high tariff All the production of cotton goods will soon go beyond what is required for homo consumption, and the only hope and escape will then be in revising the tariir so that foreign ers may send their products here freely, and receive in exchange tho manufactures ol the United States.’ Iloiv Hie Verdict was Itrrrivi-d. The jury had liccn out about twenty minutes when a recess was taken until 5:30, and in ten minutes afterward tho jury called to the bailiff that they were ready with u vordict. They awaited the return of .fudge Cox in their room. All eyos were bent on the fuco of the foreman as lie entered tile court room at the hood of the jury. No one really doubted the nature of tho vordict as soon ns it wns an nounced that one had been reached, bnt speculations bad been so vari ous ns to the way in which the jury was to hang that it was hard to realize that a verdict of guilty had been readied with so little delay. “Gentlemen of the jury, have you ngreed upon your verdict?” qucrli the clerk. “We have," answered the fore man. “What say you, is the defendant guilty or not guilty, ns elmrged in the indictment ?” “UUILTY or Ml'HIlZll.” before tho verdict wus recorded, Mr. Scovlllc demanded a pull of the jury, which was granted mid caeli responded, “Guilty,” as his name was called. As the last man answer ed, Guitcau shrieked out, “My blood will lie upon the bond of that jury, don’t you forgot it." Judge Cox then turned to tIn jury and said: “Gentlemen of the jury, 1 cannot express too many thanks for the manner in which you have discharged your duty. You richly merit the thanks of your countrymen, and with thanks, gen tlemen of the jury, 1 dismiss you." Tho defense has four days in which to make any motion in arrest of judgment, notice having been given before the court adjourned ucli au iutcnlioii. t would seem that those who have been predicting a panic have no oilier grounds for doing so than, simply because the present prosperity is too good to last. The official reports from different sec tions of the country arc sufficient to silence even this class of croak ers. These statistics show that with the advance of the season the K nerai business outlook improves ily, a safe and voluminous spring trade being everywhere indicate.I GEORGIA NEWS. Thirteen Russian Jews hare re cently arrived in Augusta. The Baptist Church at Sparta is now without cither a pastor or a bell. The “no fence” people carried the flection in Houston by 195 majority. The Sandcrsvilie Herald wants Hon. Alex. Stephens for United States Senator. Macon has subscribed about $6,- 000 to the Art Exposition to be held there in October. Tiie Marietta Journal says the South made the biggest “half crop” last year it ever heard of. Fort Valley lias had another fire, and the Mayor lias offered $100 re ward for tiie discovery of the in cendiary. Tho Mayor of Tliomasvillc is paid only ten dollars |>cr annum for his services, nnd yet there is always a scramble—for tiie honors of the office. Most of the firms of Spurlu are made up of young men. There are only three gentlemen, above forty years of age, engaged in mercan tile business in the place. A man employed us porter in an Augusta iiotcl lifted a piano one night and carried it up one flight. He got hold of it in tiie darkness by mistake, thinking he was curry ing the trunk of a Boston drum mer. The Gridin News learns that Jus. F. White, who so cruelly shot Mr. Juim-s Hose in Upson county some weeks ago, lias been captured nnd will be speedily brought to justice, lie was apprehended in Mobile county, Alahnmn. The Columbus Times says: -‘Mr. Kd. McGlaun tells a partridge story which lie vouches for though it is not in accord with the estab lished habits of the bird. He says there lives on the l’incvillc road in Chattanooga county an old negro woman witli whose chickens a par tridge took up. .Since that time it lias come regularly to be fed and roosts witli them in the chicken house every night. It lias devel oped into a very fine cock and is as kune as an ordinary chicken.” Jackson Herald: There is a chicken lien in Harmony Grove which is now in her fifteenth year. It is estimuted that she produced seventy-five dozen eggs anil raised two hundred chickens, which, at ten cents apiece for tiie chickens and ten cents a dozen for the eggs, would bring about twenty-seven dollars, and the old hen is only valued at twenty-five cents, and seems healthy and looks us if she was only n year old. She ought to be worth her weight in silver, and ahoiihl lie nicely buried when dead, and a gold monument erected over her grave. Sparta Jslimaelile: Some of our farmers make a great mistake in taking no pains to save lot manure. It is allowed to lay scattered about the stalls and lots, it is exposed to all the rain that falls, and hence is deprived of much of its fertilizing quality. In wet weather, we have seen lots Hint were regular hogs of filth—to such n degree as to make them impassable. Would it not pay to provide a sheltered place into which to put lot manures? It seems to us that time thus spent would give a good account of itsell in the inerensed returns of the crop, to say nothing ol the improved ap pearances that would result. Montezuma HVivWy: A good !>.« Iv farmer tells iis that he in- t-Mids lo pursue a ilillerent course tliisv ear. Doesn't intend lo buy a sack of guano, will plant only ten acres to the mule, will not buy a cent’s worth on credit, even if lie is compelled to sulfer for some thing to eat, and at the end of the year will tell of the result. “It is better,” he said, “to suffer for a year than a lifetime, if I continue in the same course I have always been following, it will be a perpet ual want with me.” He is one of the few men who are sane. Ho al so informed us that his lands arc llnrrah for Hen. Cook. Uticna Vista A*gm. We say hurrah for Gen. Phil. Cook, of the Third. When it comes to looking after the interest of one's district, he excels any Georgia member, and indeed any •Southern member. He never in dulges in fine political harangues, but lie is a decidedly useful memlrcr of Congress, and looks well to the interest of Ills people. It was Gen. Cook who secured for us a daily mail to Americas, and new he has put Ids shoulder to tlip well to get the Friendship and Jacksonville people mail facilties. He has pre sented to Cngress a petition asking that a mail route lie established lictwecn Buena Vista and Ameri cas via Friendship and Jackson ville, and lie is pretty sure to suc ceed in getting that for whicli he asks. The Marion county folks will vote for Gen. Cook—if they arc a little over the line. The government derived forty liiiilious of dollurs from duties on imported sugar lust year—being u larger revenue than from any other single commodity. The home production amounted to only 12J per cent, of the consumption of sugar in the country; that is, of the real sugar from . cane juice— the glucos manufacture, being in great part a deceptive business, is not so accurately returned. The duty on sugar is high, hut it is so graunted us to protect the North ern refiners fully ns much as the cane growers. Indeed the pro bability is that the latter eould not get protection unless it was coup led with protections to the manu factures. The Grill!li News slates that a short time ago two little sons of Mr. Tlmd. Clark nnd Mr. A. W. Jones, took it into their heads to skip, and, bundling up a few duds, made oil for parts unknown. Al though every effort lias been made to capture the young truants, they have been successful in eluding the anxious hands in pursuit and are still at large. A. Ij. Harris, a prominent Re publican of Atlanta, says: “We Republicans have stood the brunt of ostracism in Georgia, and if there are any honors to be divided we should he first satisfied. Tiie Independents can join us if they choose, hut they can’t swallow up the Republican party.” Georgia never had u set of men at Washington who attended more strictly|io business than her present delegation. Perhaps Senator Hill and Ilrown nrc the two most punc tual men in the Senate. It is a rare thing to see either out of his seat, even for a few minutes. Conklin denies Hint lie is out of polities permanently. He will be heard from yet, and so will Mr. Tildcn. wmrm /The Iren Tent* ie torn ef_Tre»\ VfSppg, eimn Mark, and /mm/c.
