Two evenings since, as Mr. Hirsch was

JOIINPREEVILLE.
JoiiXPREKVlLLE, March 4, 1882.
Editor Recorder:—As I have about
recovered from the binding across my
forehead caused by a late visit to your
city, I will report from the ville. It’s
strange, bnt true, every time I visit my
old home, your city, I have that binding.
I meet tome friend who is very glad to
see me and says, “won’t you hav* some
thing?" 1 hate to refuse, and in a lew
minutes I feel like a different man, and
feel like I ought to trent hitu. Walks
back with myself nnd asks him what he
will have. He answers, “some of the
same.” This is tho way the thing starts.
It's useless for me tc tell you any more
about it, for you know a great deal more
than myself. 1 enjoyed ray trip very
mncli and arrived home safe and sonnd.
The ville is on a Loom and is improving.
New houses going up every day, made
out of old ones. I will send you the
population ns soon as I liavo them to
tako a census of the ville. We are hav
ing some beautiful weather nnd the farm-
are making good uso of it getting
ready nnd planting corn. Wo aro com
pelled to plant early to make any corn,
as the seasons are so uncertain. Late
crops Inst year were a complete fuilure,
owing to long dry drouths. The grain
crop continuos to look well and all ex
pect a fine crop. I don't kDow much
about politics, but think they are resting
very quietly at present. I hour some
talk ol who will be our next Governor.

spoken of very favorably for that posi
tion. As to who will be our Congress

people’s choice. But should ho quit tb
field, wo want Judge (’. F. Crisp. Every
body Hpcnks well t.f him and would be
glad of an opportunity of voting for
him to represent ns in the while house,
but would nt the same time be very sor
ry to give him up ns our Judge, but are
willing to see him go higher. I don
know who wants to go to tho legislature,
but more than will get there I expect,
want to go, bnt I know it is just like
didn't. Homo want to go to help out
short crops. That’s tho fever 1 have,
dou’t think we would better ourselves by
ranking any change. I am a candidate,

Don’t belong to any party or clique. I

Corn planting has commenced in good

more planted this year than usual, per
haps sad experience is nn incentive in

more promising than now. Some oats

Not a Fall Peach Crop.
While quite u number of the peach
trees liavo bloomed, it will be noticed
that many of them liavo not yet shown
flowers uud grave apprehensions are en
tertained ah to anything like a full crop.
It is said tho mild weather of the past
winter huxleucd the swelling of the fruit
buds in December and tho cold snap in
that mouth killed many of them. We
earnestly hope our informants are mis
taken. AU trees sheltered by yard fences
and etc., are reported doing well. Should
the iieaches fail this season, it will be tho
fourth yeur since a full crop.

Farm Dote.
Most of tbo corn has been planted,
Good stands of corn have been obtainod
from tbo early planting.
Preparation for cotton nnd putting in
guano is now the order of the day with
furmers.
If you are scarce of labor send to the
over flowed districts on the Mississippi,
where thousands of bands are tbrown
out of work.
There is a growing disposition among
our farmers tcr plant less and cultivate
more thoroughly.
Now is the time to prepare your patch
for german millet. There is no bolter
puy crop and nothing more profitable
and timely to splice out a short corn
crop,
Tbo credit system, that buno of the
Southern farmer is not dead yet, but itia
dying. It is against reason that it should
die at once, but it is slowly and surely
going. Necessity has decreed its death.
Going at It Right.
Mr. J. J. Siappy, of the Plains of Du-
, is going at farming in the right way.
This year he is putting 350 acros in small
grain, corn, potatoes, peas, etc., and 200
acies in cotton. He says be is going to
raise provisions first and cotton after
wards. Heretofore he lias put most of
his land in cotton, nnd has been more
Kuoessful than most farmers, but bn
thinks it will pay better to raise cotton os
a surplus crop than to depend upon it al
together and have to pay out all his cot
ton brings him for provisions. We hop*
all our farmers will follow his example.
He reports small grain as looking well in
bis section.
The “ark" was filled up very soon,
With the bnbieen and the babioon
And so 'twill be in Gyles' store,
With clothes enough to shake the floor,
And Mat* of fur nnd lint* of straw,
And ShirU-mor* than allowed by law,
With Drawer* and socks nnd other wear.
All theso geods will soon bo bore,
So wait a while and don’t yon buy,
Or else aloud you’ll surely cry
“I can’t excite my darling’s smiles,
Becnnso I did not buy from Gtlen.
