Jeff' Dmtor Rural ooctherxeh : The Rural Southerner, Southern Cul tivator, Rural Carolinian, and Practi cal Planter, especially in editorials, I and through some at least, of their correspondents, are not only advocat ing but urging the Southern agricul turalist to diversify his crops, both for individual good and prosperity, as well as to develop more fully anil profitably the various resources of our Sduthern climate and soil. 1 mention these because I regularly read most of theip. I suppose all the agricultural journals south of the Potomac (and 1 tliinlc some north of that line,) are advocating that policy. For the day lias passed when a man is pronounced a fool by would-be wise men, who raises more supplies than is actually needed tor his own consumption. The time was, hut no longer is, when a farmer is looked upon as insane, who does not bend all of his energies of every kind, to the neglect of every thing else, to King Cotton. The sta ple is no longer worth 25 to HO cents, even in greenbacks. But he is fast becoming the prudent, judicious, and successful farmer, who raises a little of almost everything conducive to health and strength of man and bea.it, and then as much cotton, on as few acres, as he can. The Plantation in a recent number, says: this is a stock country, if the right kind of stock arc raised. In your April number, you made a good start to give us information on the stock question, by giving sketches and illustrations of the different kind of cuttle. But you omitted the little Irish Kerry. The Emeralder thinks he is unsurpassed. Won’t you con tinue the good work, by giving us sheep, nogs, and horses, in the same way t And w ill not your correspond ents give practical information as to iidaptcdness to our wants from actual observation and experience? Some one, nmy-bo Col. Howard, says, where Red Clover will grow, stock can he raised, and parent helically asks the pertinent: question “Where will it not.” My experience satisfies me anywhere, at, least, except in very light land with hut little clay founda tion, if one-half the attention be bc \ stowed on it that cotton has had here \jofore commanded ami secured. \ Rut it strikes me, there is an inter, Vnemute and prbpamtpvv step, lor a wumial change,"to b_p "taken from one, to a diversity if crop.-. From Cotton to Clover, Crass, and Stock. We all have a little land qow rich enough, with wlia| home-made fertilizers wo can make read y with the right kind of preparation, for a rich return in clo ver. But most, of it is rather thin for its successful culture, It used to be said the cow pea was the clover of the South. In a great measure this is true. But it w ill not, cannot compete with the various clovers. But there is a fine place for it, an intermediate and preparatory step. With anything like attention it is the cheapest crop I in results wo raise. It is good food, as pens or forage ; it is a fine fertili- 1 r.er, either turned in, led oil, or as a ! shade and inuleher, and then saved for the pen or as forage. Smile farmers say they have tried three ways, ami are vuinhle te decide which results in most good. The shading from hotVun is eon-ideml, and seems to be very beneficial. By putting stubble or resting land in jieas, in a few years the capacity of the land for better crops will be greatly , increased, and in a few years clover may h<; sown successfully, and then brought up in the same Now is the time to put in the pea cron.,, far the sake of the pea itself or t> forage, but may be sown much la ter to he turned in green, just before frost. In a few years the wheat crop may be vastly increased, by following it each time (same year) w ith peas, to be turned in for next crop. Vi ho will try the experiment, and also that of driltfug peas, half cotton row distance, and before frost, run an opening furrow between, lime the pea vines, and turn the two rows into the j furrow between them, to he planted in cotton next year, and report results ? I Respectfully, John- T. WixcniiLD. Washington, Mag 3d, 1871. On the Free Sowing of Grass. Atlanta, Ga.. VI .ty 1871. Mr. S. A. I'choir :—Dear Sir:— you request me to write again on Gras*. In the letter-;_. ;cd ‘'Atlanta." published in the April number of your paper, I contended that the free sow ing of grass in the extensive country between the wire-grass and clover ■■ regions would tend to produce rain : ! that the grasses would absorb tliefer-. tiSizing elements from the air and im-! jtart them to the earth : and that in j that region there was an absence of! elements essential to th health of j vegetation, ahima! anti iiuman beings, j and that a free cultivation of the grasses would restore thorn. Arguing from the same standpoints, 1 find drawing reasonable deductions 1 from tVve same premises, 1 also con- THE CHATTOOGA ADVERTISER SUMMERVILLE. GA., -JUNE 15, 1871. tend that the free sowing of the grasses would lower the temperature of the air and increase its humidity, making itcoolcr, balmy andagreeable ; and that it would equalize the tempera ture, knocking off the rough corners of both summer aud winter. In speaking of sowing grasses be tween the wire.grass and clover regions I do nat wish to he understood as be lieving they will not grow in the wire grass country, for I think they will on the lowlands, and on the uplands where there is n clay foundation and not too much sand. In that letter I said I could not ac count for the scarcity of rain in parts of Texas and California, where there was so much native grass. May it not he that the conttant winds "pre vailing there blow away tin- evapora tion* so rapidly as to prevent the ex istence ol that particular condition -of the air neces-ary fur rain. Now, sir, these views are novel, I admit, and are either right or wrong. If the latter, I would like to see7t proved; and if the former, I would like to see them universally acted up on by the agricultural community, as any one can see it would annually place millions of dollars in their pockets. 1 hat a change is w-ees-a. y, nil will admit; that it. can be worse than the present system, is almost impossible. I have been trying to faamit for near forty years. \\ hen 1 commenced, everything was favorable and 1 did very well and made a good support, which is more than 1 can do now un der the old system. 1 am now the daily recipient of the benefits of the grasses, and can. v, ith out doubt or hesitation recoin:nett 1 them to till; and those who w:1 so.v them can commence numbering the days of their prosperity from the time they are a year old. ‘in speaking of grasses, I mean blue-grass, clover, herd-grass, orchard-gl ass arid timothy. They have stood the test of time, and received the approbation of the world. We must raise our own subsistence. By a free sowing of the grasses, every one can have a bountiful supply of rough food for all his animals, and a plenty of green grass to graze on all the seasons of the year, except July, August and September, when wo do not want them, their plrees being sup plied by the native grasses, lie can raise his own mules, horses, cattle, sheep and hogs, almost without ex pense, to supply his own wants and to sell. Under the old system we had to work “from early morn till dewy eve," and from the first day of January to the last day of December, every day, every year, to make a scanty subsist ence, without the ability to educate i our children or provide reasonable comforts for our families. C otton is too heavily taxed. It is taxed to fertilize the land, to buy mules, meat, cattle, farming imple ments, and nearly all the necessaries of life. \\ e boast of our cotton and call it king, yet it is not equal in Mil ne to the grass crop of the United States. It is a hard king. It keeps its subjects poor and will not educate them, by giving them the advantages of schools, books, or travel. It makes them go barefoot, in summer aud poorly elrd and shod in winter, and live i,i poor houses; and it is exhaust | ing the fertility of our lands and en ! ricking other nations and sections at j our expense ; and some of its subjects i have commenced making a fuss about ! it- There is one ex-Governor in that 1 part of his dominions known as old ! Georgia, and one Dick Peters in the j hilly country, who are crouching doe- I trines and are guilty of practices in (jurious to the prerogative, authority j and dignity of his majesty ; and then arc many other subjects* quite rebel lious, and the feeling is so strong it may end in a regulrr pronunciauieiito. I rider present circumstances the price of cotton --ill not hear the expense of making it. The manufacturer takes it at lus own price, and when manu factured, he sells it back to us at nnv price lie chooses to put upon it. In oflect it is the same as if our lands, as well as ourselves, belonged to him.— lie makes u.- buy the lands ourselves to raise cotton on for him, and pay the tax, and then don't 1: If pav iis for our labor, in the form of pretend-; ing to buy our cotton. As Mr. Lin-1 coin would say: “this reminds me of j an anecdote." A man met a negro one day and asked him if he was a good fisherman. The negro replied, “Yes, tint 1 is, and asked the geinie . man what he would give him to fish | tor him. The gentleman replied, “one halt of all the fish you catch, if you furnish your ow n bait!'" We are making cotton under some such ar rangement, and though we furnish our own bait, we don't get half the fish ; and it has taken us longer to find out we were not benefitted than it did the negro to solve the inequality | of the proposition to fish. ! lam not opposed to raising cotton, i It must and should be largely raised by us. It grows better here than any where else. It is an accommodation to the world for us to raise it; they are obliged to us for it, and ir is to our interest to make it, hut what l contend for is, that we ought not to depend altogether on cotton. That we have a good grass and stock coun try. and that every, farmer should plant a considerable portion of his land m grass, so as to be sure to raise food enough for himself and all his animals ; then, if the cotton fails, he would not be materially hurl ; and if ] it brought a low price, lie would not ihe compelled to sell. In i word, he ~ would be independent at home, and could make a bountiful subsistence within the limits of his own farm, | while this poor country now trodden under foot and bleeding from every pore with poverty, injustice and op pression, would rise again. This is believed to he as good a grass and stock country as any in the world, and if we will adopt this system, it will place us ori a level with the most fa- J vored sections of the United States, leaving cotton entirely out of view, except that they start off rich and we poor, h disadvantage we can soon rc j cover from by a judicious raising of j cotton, an article they cannot raise, | and to raise which our capacity will i nut be impaired'by raising the grasses and stock, bqt will be improved, as it will afford a clu*p means of enrich j ing our lands without paying away ! the proceeds of our cotton for fertili i i'/.ors. My countrymen, will you listen ? | Do you want to lift up your poor, ] down-trodden country and place it on | a level with the most favored sections iof the world ? Do you want to live i abundantly and happily '< Do you I want your country to look green and fresh, new and beautiful as it did when | we received it from the first settlers? j Do you wish to open the doors of ed ucation for your children by admit* iing them to the ad vantages of schools, valuable hooks, and travel? Do you w ish to he improved in your princi ples of morality, piety and self-re spect ?

The blackberry season will soon be upon us, and wo would urge our rcad ! ors to make the most; of it. This do- I lieious fruit is not the less valuable, j ntrinsically, because it grows sponta neously all over our country, and may I lie had in profusion for the picking. | Apart from the delicious pies, cordials, ! and marmalades, it yields a wine, with : proper manipulation, superior to the best claret that an he nought in our market, and valuable for its medicinal properties. Mr. George HunViker, tof Bum tuft, Mississippi. - last summer, made ten i 1 mrrefiyjor*blfpkhoi rv wine, specimens ■of which ww have tasted, and must | pronounce it a good, palatable and wholesome article, superior in many ! respects to the wines of commerce i .

How to Wash Lacs. —The first thing to remember is that lace, and all such line materials, should be washed i,t hot, soft w ater. Well soap : them, and squeeze and shak \ but on ino account rub them. Repeat the i squeezing and shaking out again until they are clean, hot water ind well soap them again, and put them into a sauce pan, with enough hot wetter to cover them. Soft water is the best, but it that cannot be procured, add a (dee of soda—say a quarter of an ounce to a half a gallon of water.— Boil for half an hour. Then wash them out again ami rinse in cold, blue water. Hang them on a clothes-horse t'o dry, when they can he startehed. Lastly, roll them up in a dry cloth for t wo hours, by which time they w ill be fit to iron. Things out West.

The wild pigeons have caused the low a farmers much trouble and vexa tion. I'licy picked up the wheat as soon as it was sown, and it was neces sary to watch the fields from davlight until dark. Some farmers have been compelled to sow two or three times, ami a few fields have been seriously damaged by the pigeons pulling up the wheat after it had sprouted an inch high. A Northern gentleman.
