WALKER, Columbus, Ga. and Cotton Planting- A correspondent of the 3 nitliern Cultivator, taking a lesson from the sharp school of experience, nays that no people on earth ever did or ever will thiivu without grass upon which to graze their stock. Ho says there is a plan of (arming per fectly pra 'ticblo in the south that would solve the labor question, en rich the land and enrich the tnr iner. tic proposes that all ottm farms bo divided into four fi ids, one to be sown in grass OeruniJ.i., Japan, clover, white clover, or chard grass hills gra-s, red clover, or any kind of grass that stock will eat—the second field to be sown in peas, the third in corn, and the fourth in cotton. The next move to procure a number of sheep —four hundred head for hundred acres—graze them on the grass un til the peas are ripe, then put them on the peas, and during the winter feed them on thu cotton seed grown on - .ho place. The corres pondent says this will make the land rich enough to grow cotton without manure, and t hat if this rotation is kept up, smu all the farms will bo rich, and the profits off the sheep will pay family ex penses, or the sheep may be sold as fat sheep after,l aim ry, and will pay one hundred per cent tun on tlm investment. lie declares, furthermore, that sheep-raising ou the coltot: plantations would, in ten years, enrich every acre of land and every farmer in the south. This, it will bo observed, i* Mr, Atkinson's theory and it is un doubtedly the correct ono. Cultured Capitalists Mr Mnckny anil his father-in law, Col. llungerford, sat side by aide in a proscenium box in a l’,ir is theater.

The Colonel then shook hands with the ComstO'JK millionaire and c nigral ulatod Tim on his llow of French, The curtain wont up, and one of tin; stars Unshod like a meteor be fore i lie spectators, “Miigiiifi ek !“ cried the CoU on and. ‘Tray Lean !‘ shouted Mr M. ‘Onkoree!‘ shrieked tho Col o ioI. •Toot sivui t !‘ yelled John. Aftni' the pli> Muck ay drew tho Colonel to one side and whispered in his oar: ‘X don't mind tollin' ye, I spake Italian as well as I do French— do you ?' * ‘ Vos,' replied tho Colonel, 'I guess we've both been cultured in the same business-'--Stiver Cliff Pr spect. a—. What Congress Should Do- Chicago Tribune. Congress ought now to provide a standing appropriation of $50,000,- 000 annually in aid of national education, This money ought to he appropriate per cupita among the several states in aid of the schools. The money appropriated by congress for this purpose would he a release to the land in all t.iese states. The $3,000,000 falling to the sliare of Illinois would enable the state to relievo the lands of Il linois of $3,000,000 now raised hom them by direct taxation for educational pu. poses So in other staies, where nearly tho whole bur den of taxation falls upon the land, and where the taxation for schools is limited because of ttie inability of the already lax-oppressed lauds to bear ttie burden. The appro priation ol this $50,000,000 would be one of the gr atest of national blessings. It would be tho begin ning of school funds in states where there are now none and where they are especially needed. The school system thus endowed with a fund of $1 per head of the population, once begun would never cease, but would grow until made equal to the educational wants of each com munity. Let congress now abol ish the no-long, r needed and yet burdensome sinking fund, and turn the momy now suns in that fund over to the suvei al states to endow a school system in all parts of the land. The establishment 1 schools is of infinitely m ire impo • "<w than the p.yuaeut of LODdg not due and only bearing 3 I Z p.r cent interest. USKVKIt.iI.

The owner of a largo cranberry farm at Berlin, Vis., employs a hundred girls, and h 1 pr anises to marry the one who picks the most'berries this season, pro idmg she wants him. In 1779, the British Peerage con. tained twenty-one Dukes, and in 1879 precisely tho same number. Statistics go to show that sui cides are more frequent in hot weather than during a lower tem perature.

That European nations are gradually learning fiom America something about Comtnrt, convenience and snlety in 1 ravel ing, appears in the fact that sleeping cars on tho American pluu are now run on must ol tho principal railroads of the continent. Marriage Law in Sparta.— Some of our disconsolate maidens to-day may wish they had lived in Hpnrtn where the time of marriage was fixed by law. If a man did not marry w hen he was of full age lie was liable to prosecution, and so too if ho married above or be low his social grade. Three child ren entitled a father to great im munities, and the man who had tour was exempt from taxis. Maidens were married without portions, because neither want should hind r a man nor ricu s in duce him to marry contrary to his inclinations. Tribute to Columbus, Ga, In Hub connection every Georgian will take pride m the fact, which also runs in the line of our elate auprein cy to which no many allusions have boon m tde, that the city ol ColaoibtM,{Georgia, furnished more manufactured artiel s of every kind to the Confederate quarter-master de partment thm any place in tho Confed eracy, except Richmond, which had all tho protection and fostering cure of tho government.
