A November Dajr. * A sun, a wind, a sky like March" So bright, so keen, so clear an<l blue, The broad, untroubled azure arch. Vttlch not a cloud is Hailing through; earth, a festive way, though she woke from slumbering entered on agbol iday jmmF Might tempt one half to dream of spring— Except for trees whose glow la fled, W Except for withered leaves and brown, r That rU3tle underneath our tread i And make woodland of the town. | For, as I walked I turned to see The vista of a cllmblug street. With leaves o’erdrifted perfectly; It was a forest road complete. Above, the branches softly bent And scattered still their brown and gold The sunshine to the pathway lent k The glamour of some tale of old. To-morrow morn the rain may fall. ■V The clouds may gloom, the (lay be dull, W w But I must still remember all r That makes this day so beautiful. Emily S. Oakey in outing for November. OUR HOME AND FOREIGN TRADE. ItiscoiiMng to be genially recog nized that the volume oi business tran sacted throughout th e country lias, for the past two months, been largely over estimated. The vacation given them selves by thousands of iron-workers and the promise of abundant crops are re sponsible for the error in calculation and have since served to hoodwink the public into a belief that a fair rapidity in the distribffchm of merchandise sig nifies also large invoices. The misap prehension respecting the situation in U/he iron trade has already been discuss ed. Reports from leading jobbers of clothing and dry goods at the principal report sparing purchases, al though the total of the piecemeal busi ness will be larger tlAu was at first ex pected. Even in sucTi absorptive com munities as Kansas and Nebraska sta ple goods, groceries, paint fbtlß and boots and shoes have blbn very quiet for a number of weeks. The far North west, reaching into Dakota and Mon tana, is experiencing a heavy trade as compared with the region previously mentioned, but fewer goods were sold there during October than in Septem ber, which was a surprise to the trade. Boston boot and shoe manufacturers have declared that an advance of not less than 5 per cent, will be made in their prices the coming sejison, due not to an unusually heavy demand, but to the peculiar situation observed in “the statistical position’ outlie hide market. Collections in the tfrtdle and New En *l and states are r nceably slack. - J I shudder when I hear describ ed as “jolly.” When amaiden gets to be impatient of restraint, and anxious, first and chief of a11, to time,?’ she is in amoAi of at [east possible peril."' ~Jb'roiuHftlly gfr m certain ranks in society tne Jenlß Cra recruited—girls who mejff no harm, but who are so careless of con that they aware.#t)ur so Icial customs allow a freedom Pfche sexes which is wise and healthy, but contains perilous possibilities. I There is room at least for the inquiry | whether what may be called the calis thenic craze, the cultivation of ‘-man nish” sports, games, and other forms of physical exercise among girls,may not have been the occasion in part for the diminished gentleness ancPw-manliness observable in the jolly girl of the period. —Ex. The grand jury in Xew York is so firmly convinced ilnu sane persons are confine l illegally that it has addressed the following letter to .Recorder Smythl At the inquest of this grand jury upon matters relating to the management of Ward’s island lunatic asylum there has developed strong evidence of a system so danger gerous to the rights of citizens we feel it our duty to recommend that! a change in the laws may be made to remedy the evil and prevent, as far as possible’ the incarceration of sane per sons in eitherpublicjor private asylums. To this end we recommend that the al leged lunatic, in all cases before com mitment, shall be ex mined by three physicions. each acting separately with out the presence of the others, aud that the examination shall be had btTore a* judge and in the presence counsel for the accused; that the physicians shall be selected by the judge, in the same manner that jurors are drawn from the names of all reputable physicians who may have been m active practice in the state, county or city during a ]Bm tod of five years* at least and tiiat a hh jority verdict with the concurrence of the judge, shall be necessary to a com mitment, We find the sanitary arrang ments very deficient, especially in the use of baths, where healthy and diseas ed persons are compelled’ to use the same bath without change of water. From the testimony before us, we find that opportunity afforded to# pa tients to communicate with the r friend are too limited, if not altogether forbid den and we urgently recommend that such changes be adopted as will patients to confer with friends ;*1 counsel- On Sunday, August 10 1870, Mr Mark ley.

Editors Chronicle and Constitutionalist : I vrite to thank you for the hand some manner in which you have seen fit to refer to myself in your editorial headed “the Furman farm and theory.” From the conclusion arrived at therein, however, and reiterated in a subsequent article entitled “Furman’s Formula,’’ that my system in the hands of others would be likely to prove a failure, I must beg to differ and under the cir cumstances feel that perhaps it is dne the public that I should assert that dif ference, and give the reasons upon thich it is based. It is au old saying and one in which ere is much philosophy and more truth that “there is more in the man than there is in the land,” and this saw would seem to bear you out in your conclusion. Take two men with equal advantage of soii, capital, and education and start farming, and the one will grow prosper while the other is sold out Wthe sheriff and starves. This is true of men in every calling in life, and yet that it is so should be no disparage ment upon any system or method that properly pursued and carried out is a certain load to success, as when trod with caution and intelligence. Even with a system the inevitable re sult of which is perfect success if per fectly applied, few arrive at that per fection; but, nevertheless every at tempt to reach perfection brings about growth and development, and as a cer tain resultant, au amount either great er or less of improvement in methods and results. It may be that not many of the far mers who read Mr. David Dickson’s hook and adopted his system referred to by you, were as successful as Mr. Dickson; but the fact is uncontrovert ed that the system of cultivation advo cated and introduced by Mr. ®>ickson has been adopted bjr intelli gent farmers throughout the South, and has constituted an important factor in what little development we have had in our agricultural interests. The sys tem which I have adored and advo cate (for with me it longer a ry) is one I am satisfied wilflß no distantly prove the salvation of the"agriculturists of this country. With our old slipshod methods, and unsatis factory results, farming has fallen into disrepute. An impression prevails.and justly too, that with the prevailing svm| tem is no money to be made ini this coWi-y- at farming, and we have had no example as yet with us of a sec ond Cincinnatus, so that no inducement is held out to the brains of the country to draw them toward the soil as a prob able source from whence wealtlPor hon oware If be derived. my system properly applied, re rarns and remunerative ones sured, and surely the fact that all wffo follow in my footsteps not equal my results, should be n*ground for dis couragement and the prediction that my system in the hands of others will prove a failure. Once let that system be understood (and it is simplicity itself, for all that it does is to follow nature,) and its ap plication will, I predict, be general, and generally successful. In proof of this assertidll will say that my negro tenants are wop ting it with marked success, and are now as much interest ed in compost and chemicals mi I am myself. Three years ago I could not keep tlfcn from selling their cotton seed. T^lay^fcninducement make them them. I find them quick to catch my ideas and eager to apply them practically. When our young men of talenlA%rn j their attention, as they Moon will do, to the true source of wealpl and happiness which they have so long spurned un | der their feet, a few decades will see ! the Georgia future what her cli ! mate and sgflrombined make her, the garden spot of the world.
