GIiUUGU FARM' AXU’PRI IT ITKItIS. | Corn never looked belter iu Doo- | iv comity, and cott n h.ie started ( off vigorously. Fruit trees full down about Mon- > tczuiua, Messrs. J A D Hughes, of Dooly county, are selling home raised lard, bacon, corn and syrup. Fine wheat and oar. crops in Walton, good many peaches in some looslitios. Many farmers in Dooly have tin slied chopping out their cotton Colton planting finished in Bar low county. V ir g wheat and oats looking well in Newton county—not enough wheat sowed. The strawberry crop about Cov ington is very promising. Farmers in M riwether county are busy plowing corn. Cotton plan l ed. More cotton than corn is planted around Gordon. The fourth of the fruit crop of Monroe will mature. The oat crop of Stewart county will be a good one. II R Hotchkiss, of Putnam coun ty, lias a head of lettuce which weighs three j omuls andmeasuros five feet in circumference. Fine stands of cotton in Monroe county. With two plows, U If Ramsey, of Columbia county, made last year 35 bales of cotton and 350 bushels of cut 11. tvestern corn is killing st ick in Putnam county. Peach trees around Jesup are laden with fruit. About Wrightsville the fruitier p is vary promising, Wheat and oats look well iu Gor don county. Cotton is coming up well m Wilkes county. Corn crops are looking finely in Johnson county, Around Petersburg, in Gordon county, farmers are tiding more gi.ano, and planting more cotton and loss corn than ever known there before. Cotton seed very scarce in Sum ter county. There will ho considerable fruit in Pulimtu county. From Ainericns to Mac in the cottcn crop will compose tluee fourths of the area in cultivation. Western corn, lmv and bac n gen erally used. Mr Mellec, of L nviidcs county, lias t ken every tree and stump out of 500 acres of land, with his new cultivator, lie says ho can make corn nt a cost ot ten cents per bushel. A heavy yield of wheat and oats counted on in Dooly county. The corn acreage j of Lowndes county is greater than last y ;a>\ and more good land and manure is being devoted to it. Sir B II Harrel, of Doolv county, uses hickory ashes and salt as a remedy to keep stock in a healthy and thriving condition, as well as a preventive of grubs, colic and oth er diseases. Farmers if north Georgia are buying western meat nt 12 cents a pound and corn at $1.25 per bushel, payable out of the proceeds of their next crop. They also pay $2.00 for western hay. Farmers who cut oats while iu the milk state and letting them par tially dry before fhedinirplo wrong. All who feed iippn oats before they are fully matured, should give them freshly cut. Three Living Poet . St. Loni. Glolie-Dciuocrat. There are still living the three greatest poets that this age has produced—Victor Hugo, Alfred Tennyson and Henry. W Longfel low. Of the llirec we claim the last named, not as the greatest of the three great s!, but as the young est and freshest, and therefore the most long-lived. There is not a line in his poetry that is not young and fresh. Tennyson lias already passed the limits assigned to poet ry, and like bis friend, Carlyle, fall en into a state of hopeless misan thropy. But Victor Hugo ranks above his two compeers in this, that while he has under full control all the skill of versification that Tenuyson employs, he has besides Longfellow's great gifts of simplic ity of utterance, all the ta'enls of a born dramatist and novelist. Lit os hope t lat the greatest of the three will not be struck down by the death blow till he has sung his sw ,u song in words of sweetness to which no other poet of this age dare ;vpirc. Debilitated Digestion. HOW VOLTAIRE CURED THE DECAY OF UIS STOMACH. Iu the ‘Memoirs of Count Segur* there is the /allowing auecdoto: 'My mother, the Countess de Segur, being asked by Voltairo respecting her health, told him that the most painful feelings she had arose from the decay of her stomach aud the difficulty of finding any kind of ali meat that it could boat. Voltaire, by way of consolation, assured her that he was once for nearly a year iu the same state, and believed to be incurable, but that uevoitbeless, a very simple remedy bad restored him. It consisted in taking no other nourishment than yolks of oggs beaten up with tho flour of potatoes and water.* Though this circumstance took plneo ns far back us titty years ago, aud respected so extraordinary a person as Voltaire, it is astonishing how little is known, and how rarely the remedy lias been practiced. Its efficacy, hows ever, in cases of debility, cuu not bo questioned, aud tho following is the mode of preparing this valuas ble article of food as recommended by Bir John Sinclair: ‘Beat up an egg,in a bowl and then add six tablespooufuls of cold water, mixing tho whole well to gether, then add two tablespooufuls of farina of potatoes; let it be mixed throughly with tlm liquor in the bowl. Then pour in as much boil ing water as will convert the whole into a jelly and mix it well. It may bo taken alone or with tho addition of a little milk, in c.tso of stoinsc ie debility or consumptive disor ders. This dish is light nnd easily digested, extremely wholesome and nourishing. Bread or biscuit may bo taken with it as tho stoumch gets stronger. Bernhardt’s Farewell. Bernhardt sailed to Fiance Wed nesday, and said of the United States, as sho went on the ship: ‘Dining my six months* sojourn iu this country aud Canada 1 have travelled over 18,000 miles, and was much surprised everywhere to find the same type of man, In Franco it is vary different, for in nl cost, each department the races are different, both in manners and appearance. Your women are very pretty. Xo one call gainsay that. Then, again, tiny know how to dress to perfection, ami with a chic that, I did not at all expect to see. It is quits French. Then your children—how beautiful they are* nnd so sweetly dressed, too.* Her opinion of the country is: ‘No foreigner of any perception whatever coining here for the lir-t time can liil to be perf ctly aston - ished at tlm vnstneas of your coun try. The comforts ot travelling ex cel those of any part of Fit rope But the cooking I cannot endure No, no, that is horrible. When ever it wrs practicable I remainid m my ear and had my dinner pre pared by my cook, who went, every where with me. The only meats, i with a few exceptions, that. I at nil relished were those prepared by him.* The Credit System- A New York paper says that if Southern planters and farmers wish to become more prosperous they should at onco abandon tire perni cious credit system. In tho cotton States, particularly, it is a weighty drawback. As the system is prac ticed, tho planter gives tho tnrr chant a lieu on his crops to he grown, nnd the merchant, beiug lolly secured, furnishes tho necess ary supplies and fixes his own prices. Hbo planter or fnrmsr is thus wholly at llio mercy of the merchant, nnd has no redress against exorbitant rates. A decis ion has just been rendered by tire snpreme court of Mississippi which will afford the farmers of that State some relief. A merchant who held a mortgage on the crops of a far mer forclosed it. The lower court ullowed i.ts bid against tbc farmer, although it was shown that the prices charged were at least double the cash rule: The supreme court, on appeal, reversed the decision and affirm and that the purchaser was not in a position to decline the purchase on account of tho prices charged, and chut he acquiesced in the prices from an overruling nes cessity- His extorted assent to the prices fixed was without con sideration,and was therefore void. Bought corn and hay is killing up males in some localities of S.uuli Georgia. .SLunlftV Mathews lms been confinne<t associate justice of the Supreme conit by t.hc U S Senate by :: m - jority ot one.
