Two weeks ago, under the cap
tion: “The Beginning of the End,”
wo published an extract from the
Savannah Times, giving an account
of the salo of the land of a Mr. Bob-
son, of Washington county, to sat
isfy the claims of one of
those Northern companies which
are now lending money so exten
sively upon real estate mortgages
throughout the South. Our com
ments upon that article seem to
have struck one of those companies
which has an agency in this city
and a wrong construction 1ms evi
dently been placed upon our words.
Our object was not to censure the
Northern capitalists who have
brought their money South for in
vestment that we wrote. Northern
capital lias built our railroads and
our factories, and is to-day de
veloping the rich resources of our
country in every direction, which
never could have been done with
out this aid. The Northern cap
italist has found a remunerative
field for investment in the South,
and he deserves a reasonable profit
for the use of his money.
The object of the article referred
to, and of many others published
during a series of years past, was to
open the eyes of our farmers to the
suicidal policy which they have
adopted, and which many have pur
sued to their utter ruin, while
many others are close behind them
on the same road. These Northern
capitalits have stepped forward,
and have offered them an opportu
nity to retrace tttgir steps, but they
are so misusing their chances that
at is plain to an observant eye that
“‘the beginning of the end has
come.” There is now no escape
from the inevitable. What is that
end? It is to place the millions of
acres of land already mortgaged
and which are being mortgaged
daily in the hands of these capital
ists. The Southern people cannot
buy it; because every Southern far
mer who has any surplus capi
tal already has as much land as he
wants, or rather, can handle, while
the mortgagee cannot afford to sell
it for less than their advances and
the accumulated interest, and thus
will it pass into their hands. The
result will be that these lands will
be placed upon the Northern mar
kets and will be purchased by
Northern farmers. It is nonsense
to believe that they will not come;
it may be slow at the first, but the
tide will widen and deepen until it
becomes like the seaward sweep of a
mighty river, and in the course of
a quarter of a century our country
will be filled with these Northern
farmers. Then the effect. These
immigrants are inured to toil, and
will depend upon their own labor,
the agricultural policy of the South
will be totally changed, and the
lands which have been worn out in
the culture of cotton and abandon
ed will be made to teem with abun
dant harvests, and these men will
grow ricli and independent where
our present farmers have buried
their opportunities.
This may not be a pleasant pict
ure for our farmers to contemplate,
hut our business is to deal with
facts, however stern—not with flat
teries. We have warned our far
mers often of the end to which their
course was leading them, but they
have turned a deaf ear, or scorned
the newspaper which dared to ut
ter a word of advice. And now, if
they would save themselves from
the gathering storm, which will
overwhelm them, they have no
time to further waste in whining
over “time prices,” the extortions
of merchants, and the just demands
of those who have furnished them
advances of money and provisions—
they must he up and doing. A to
tal change in the agricultural pol
icy, the farm must bo mnde self-
sustuiniug, the farmer must “live at
home,” and not onlv he, hut every
hand whom he employs. When that
is done, the farmer will bocome in
dependent, and lie will have money
to lend instead of a need to borrow.
If Burke county would produce
15,000 Instead of. !fO,00() hales of cot
ton, and devote the time required to
raise the other 15,(MX) bales to the
production of provision crops and
the raising of stock, within two
years her farmers would lie out of
debt, their property would not he
covered with mortgages, and they
would be in u condition to begin
the world once more on a level.—
Ami if the whole Houth would fol
low this example, and cut her cot
ton crop down from 6,000,000 to 8,000,-
000, raising all her own provisions,
then would her farmers receive re
munerative prices for their cotton
uml would soon accumulate a capi
tal at home, and preclude the ne
cessity of going North for every
dollar necessary to develop her re
sources.
Hut although those remarks are
founded upon a close observation
of transpiring events, it is newspa
per advice, and it will doubtless
iiioit the fate of all articles of its
Kind,
Meeting or the It on aril Agricultural Club.
Mr. J. M. Jones, of Midville, wel
comed the members to his home
with brotherly hospitality.
Mr. F. A. Jones was made chair
man. Mr. J. M. Jones, who was ap
pointed at last meeting to open dis
cussion read the following essay:
“‘Hog liaising and the most
Economical Way of Feeding.’ I
claim if we will diversify our crops,
planting oats corn, peas, potatoes,
groundpeas, chufas, Ac., then all
the cotton possible after enough of
other crops for home consumption,
with good pastures, we can raise the
hog at a profit. I prefer to have
my hogs eighteen months old, but
kill down to eight months and some
times younger. My average age
for killing is about pine to ten
months old.
“On the first of March we have to
take our hogs out of our fields to
commence planting, then we should
have pastures for them to run in
until our small grain is ready, which
ought to be at least one-fourth to a
third of our entire farms, then it
will carry them until your field of
early corn, which should be filled
with early maturing peas, is ready
and these should take them to frost.
Then comes your potatoes, and by
this time your main crop of corn
will be ready to gather, and of
course it will be full of field peas.
The next and last crop for them
should be your ground peas.and
chufas, as they will keep through
the rain and cold better than other
crops.
“I generally put up and feed corn
from ten to twenty days from the
first of November until I can get
suitable weather for killing them.
I always prefer to have my hogs
fat and ready to kill in November,
as they fatten better in warm
weather, and I can have my meat
cured before the bugs get so bad in
the spring.
“As to stock I prefer a cross of
some of the full-blood boars on com
mon sows, having tried Berkshire
and Chesterwhite. A nursery of
four or five acres for sows and pigs
is very essential, it saves great loss
of young pigs. As to cost, I will
give my actual experience of last
year, which was very bad, lost all
my sows and pigs and had to buy
another stock. I killed twenty-one
shoats, 3,423 pounds, an average of
162 pounds each, ago about twelve
to eighteen months:
13 months feed, one ear corn
each a day $ 65 10
4 sows feed 12 months
5 bushels groundpeas
15 “ field peas
12 “ corn while fat’n’g
charcoal, salt, copperas and ashes,
and to this a little sulphur may oc
casionally be added if vermin are
found upon them. Hogs that go
through the spring in a healthy con
dition are not likely to take on dis
ease during the summer and fall
months if properly fed. Our re
sources for hog raising are more
numerous than we are thought to
possess. With the first fruits of
early spring, plums and mulberries,
succeeded by rye and oat crops,
with surplus apples, peaches and
refuse from the garden and field
peas, melons and sorghums bring
ing them to the root crops of pota
toes, chufas, peanuts, artichokes
and a supply of ruta baga turnips
for the winter, pork can be raised
here as cheap as West. But raised
on grain alone it the dearest animal
food produced with us. We need
at the South a small black hog,
the large overgrown varieties raised
in the North and West are quite
unsuited to our climate. While we
might raise these large hogs our

“I gave a cropper an interest am
the crop, he did all the work, and
put in Ids hogs to fatten. When I
raise all my corn, peas, Ac, I don’t
feel the cost of my meat mo much,
and often think it is about all I
have clear on my little two-horse
farm, selling all surplus over family
use to my tenants at market time
price.
“I once bought some hogs, run
them through my fields, and killed
them at a cost of about 2 1 ., cents
per pound. At another time I
bought a stag, estimated net weight
150 pounds, and fed him corn,every
pound I put on cost mo 12 cents,
while bacon was selling in Midville
at 8 cents per pound. So you see it
doesn’t pay to feed corn exclusively
I give you, brother members, my
experience, imping thereby to draw
each one of you out that we may all
he benefltted.”
Mr. F. A. Jones gave us some
facts in regard to pushing pigs from
the start by giving them all they
can eat. He had made shouts 12
months old go 200 pounds, and
thinks he could make them weigh
even more.
Mr. W. H. Bullard told the club of
his lino range, and stated the gener
al opinion of the club, that tills was
the cheapest way to raise hogs if
they could bo protected from thieves.
I)r. W. B. Jones said the essay of
Mr. Janies Jones covers pretty
much the whole ground. Success
ful hog raising must bo accom
panied' with shady clean pasture
lots, pure water and a variety of
food. Hogs need protection, par
ticularly from the cold rains of the
latter part of winter and early
spring. February, March and April
are especially trying to hogs in this
lattitude. Cheap shelters from the
sudden atmospheric changes and
cold rains of these months will save
them from much debility and dis
ease. Having now exhausted the
field crops, they must be fed from
tho barn alone; fortunate is lie who
has ruta baga turnips, rape or any
vegetable food to givo them. At
this season of the year all hogs in
this lattitude need some medica
tion, and there should bo kept con
stantly before them a mixture of
precarious winters forbid baconing
it, large joints are difficult to cure
in this climate. The Essex and
Berkshire are the best varieties
ever introduced. The Essex is a
small easily kept animal free from
disease, easily controlled, but breeds
slowly as thoroughbreds, his crosses
are admirable and make the jiret-
tiest thriftiest pork hogs. The
Berkshire is a nervous, rambling,
gluttonous animal. Berkshire sows
if fed bountifully will produce 30 to
40 shoats a year. Either of these
animals are medium size and large
enough for our use. The range sys
tem when practicable gives the
cheapest pork we can raise, but tiiis
is possible to only a few.
Dr. Jones then read the following
receipts from the American Cul
tivator, as preventives of (lie disease
known as hog cholera: “Where the
sick animal can be induced to drink,
take sulphur 8 ounces, copperas
8 ounces, madder 8 ounces, black
antimony 2 ounces, saltpetre 2
ounces and arsenic 8 ounces. Dis
solve the copperas and saltpetre;
mix the whole with ten quarts of
slop and feed a pint to each hog.
The above quantity is sufficient for
fifty animals, and should be given
daily for three or four days.” The
following is said to be a sure pre
ventive of the disease: “Take 4
pounds of common salt and 1 pound
each of black antimony, sulphur and
pulverized copperas, mix the whole
thoroughly with 8 quarts of un
leached wood ashes and place in a
trough where the hogs can eat it at
will.” It is stated upon the best
authority that the above will not
only prevent the disease, but will if
fed freely in its first stages effect a
cure. Another preventive exten
sively used by Western farmers is
the following: “Take one bushel
of charcoal,broken into small pieces,
three bushels unleached wood ashes,
one-half bushel slacked lime, one-
fourth bushel salt, two pounds
Spanish brown, five pounds sulphur,
one-quarter pound saltpetre and
one-half pound copperas. Pulver
ize the last two ingredients thor
oughly and mix all in a box or bar
rel, then place it in an open trough
where the hogs can have free access
to it, and keep well moistened with
swill or milk so as to encourage
them to eat as freely of It as possi
ble. If the herd is small the quan
tity of each ingredient can be much
less, but the proportions should be
maintained.”
When the club was called to order
in the afternoon, we had some dis
cussion on forage plants. Milo maize
was thought to be a valuable ad
dition to our list Mr. It. H. Burton
said his stock liked it well and it
made a large amount of forage. I
gave the club the weight of milo
maize, which is sixty-two pounds
to tho bushel, making it heavier
than either peas or wheat.
The subject for next meeting is:
“The Best Breed of Cattle for this
Locality, Our ltosources lor liaising
Beef Cattle and Feeding Milch
Cows.” The next mooting will be
held at Mr. W. II. Bullards.

No Georgian, no student of the
lives of great men and their lessons,
no one ambitious to understand the
truth and the whole truth of Amer
ican history for the past forty years,
should lie without tiiis excellent
and attractively planned biogra
phy. The volume before us is pub
lished by one of the great book
selling firms of America, and is sold
by subscription only, Mr. T. lv.
Oglesby, an intimate and trusted
friend of the great Georgian, having
sole charge of the subscription lists,
appointment of agents, etc. We are
of the opinion that|Mr. Oglesby’s
duties in tiiis regard will be alto
gether absorbing for an extended
period, for we have rarely seen a
biography so intensely interesting
throughout, so full of instruction,
so valuable to all, so inspiring to
the youth of our country—affording
them a picture of a pure and noble
life, drawn by the hand of a master.
Tho literary merits of the work
would render attractive a far less
meritorious subject. Of one of the
biographers, we only know his fine
reputation; but the other, Professor
Bichard Malcolm Johnston,as teach-
er, lecturer, literateur, and gentle
man, par excellence, of the old
school, is known of all. For more
than a quarter of a century lie was
the close and intimate friend of Mr.
Stephens, and Dr. Samuel Johnson
was not more closely observed by
the devoted Boswell, than was Mr.
Stephens by his accomplished, dis
cerning biographer. During the
greater part of this intimacy Mr.
Johnston was carefully preparing
for this memoir. The materials
were furnished by Mr. Stephens
himself. His journals, letters, me
moranda—of all kinds—were placed
at the disposal of Mr. Johnston; in
deed the complete work in its first
edition had tho sanction of its sub
ject. It is, therefore, a most impor
tant contribution to contemporary
history, with the attestation of per
haps the most accurate public man
of the country.
It is impossible in the crowded
state of our columns to give an ad
equate review ot this fascinating
book. The reminiscences it con
tains wiil be sweet to the souls of
the generation of ante-bellum Geor
gians, growing less and less every
year, “as the memories of joys that
are gone.” It is, of all the books
we have read, most likely to em
balm aud preserve the old civiliza
tion now forever in the past. The
Georgia old-field schoels, University
life, and its social enjoyments, rid
ing the circuit, the old time revival,
life on the old plantation, the Geor
gia corn-shucking, tho old-fashion
ed joint discussions, with such dis
putants as Walter T. Colquitt, Her
schel V. Johnson and Benjamin II.
Hill, humors of life in Washington
in the ante-bellum times—all of this
will make the volume inestimable
a as record of a social organization,
of which Mr. Stephens was a leader,
written by one who moved with
even step, equally an actor in the
same panorama now swept away
forever.
It is difficult to say whether the
book is more interesting in the as
pect just presented than as a histo
ry, hut in either view it is most val
uable. The life of no Georgian has
been so well written. All of the
great questions which divided the
American Jpeople before the war,
the conduct and opinions of Mr.
Stephens during the existence of the
Confederacy, and his connection
with public events since its over
throw, to the day of his death, are
presented m an engaging and accu
rate form. Not tho least uninter
esting chapters are the memorial
addresses and exercises in which the
elite of Georgia vied in the effort to
place in graceful and appropriate
language the general sorrow for tho
public calamity, the funeral and
sermons completing the obsequies
of tho great Georgian,
Newton county will outer suit
against Henry county at tho ap
proaching term of court to rocover
one-half the amount expended in
rebuilding Island Shoals bridge.—
About two years ago tho bridge at
that point was swopt away by lhe
freshet. Newton wanted it re
placed, but Henry refused to boar
the proportional exponso that it
would entail upon hor. Newton
went ahead then and built tho
bridge, and now seeks to rocover
half the amount Hpent in its erec
tion. The claim amounts to some
thing over.fl ,000.
[According to the above state
ment, Newton county Is very ar
bitrary in her demands, and we can
see no justice hi forcing Henry to
pay any part of Newton’s debts.—

Is the name of a flourishing village
in Coffee county, Georgia, on the
line of the Brunswick and Albany
railroad.
Mr. D. E. Gaskin, a well known
citizen of that village, writes under
date of December 22d:
“Soon after my marriage, about
four years ago, my wife was strick
en with some trouble peculiar to
her sex, which broke down her gen
eral health. In this condition she
was soon after attacked with in
flammatory rheumatism of such a
severe type that it made her a crip
ple. She was reduced in flesh to
sixty-five pounds, and came very
near losing her life. She was at
tended by three good physicians
who treated her with some benefit,
but the swelling in her joints
never left her. Last summer
the llheumatism returned in a still
more painful and severe form
which seemed to defy the skill of
the doctors. She would almost go
frantic with pain and would lie and
scream all day. A friend of mine
who is an engineer on the Bruns
wick & Albany railroad, suggested
that 1 should use Swift’s Specific,
(S. S. S.), which I did. After she
had taken one small bottle she was
up and able to walk over the house,
and after taking the six small bot
tles she is now able to do any kind
of house work; tho swelling has
gone, all the pain has left her, and
she is in better health than she
ever was. The treatment before
using the Swift’s Specific cost me
between $350 and $4(M), and the six
bottles of S. S. S. cost me six dol
lars.
. It is certainly the most wonder-
fui medicine and the best blood pu
rifler in the world. The proprietors
should let the world know about it.

On the 1st of May tho Augusta
Savings Bank will celebrate Its
tenth anniversary. During these
ten years it has been a factor of
strength and usefulness to our com
munity. Its conservatism and en
terprise placed it at once in the
lead, and besides aiding all our pub
lic undertakings that were worthy,
it has been of immense benefit to
private individuals, the working
men and persons of small means, as
it furnished them a safe place for
deposit, and has paid out $100,000 in
interest. Mr. Alfred Baker, its
president, is a veteran autharity on
finance, while its cashier, Mr. Jo
seph S. Bean, is splendidly trained,
energetic and far-seeing.
Its flnaco committee, Messrs. E.
B. Schneider. W. B. Young, and E.
O’Donnell are known to all our cit
izens, and they are justly proud of
the record they have just complet
ed of their bank being in a most,
prosperous condition. The hank
management Inis determined to in
crease its usefulness. It has just
added five new members to its
board of directors, and these new
servants of tho bank have been
chosen from our most prominent
and reliable citizens. Messrs. Wil
iam Schweigert, James A. Lotlin,
E. J. O’Connor, Edgar It. Derry and
Jules Blval are each leading mer
chants in their departments of bus
iness, and make with the old board
a splendid combination of brains
and strength. We predict for the
\ugusta Savings Bank that its sec
ond ten years of usefulness will bo
even more wide spread and prosper
ous than tho first.
A recent San Francisco special
says: In an interview the Bev. J.
II. Newman gave some interesting
unpublished facts in regard to
Grant, which his intimacy with the
general makes trustworthy. He
said: “The oft-repeated statement
that Grant was the author of Ba-
deau’s Life is utterly without foun
dation. Grant did look over the
proof sheets, but made no material
change. Badeau’s Life would have
been one of the most successful
books ever published in America
had it been properly pushed. The
Appletons, who issued it had no
sympathy with Grant, and did little
to aid the sale. Badeau turned over
the copy right to Grant, but the
general never realized anything on
it. lie ought to have received as
much as Sherman got for his me
moirs. When the Appletons pub
lished Jeff Davis’ book, they made
extraordinary efforts to push it,
with the result that it netted the
author something^like $50,000.

ease that has come under my observation,
the same good results were obtained.
