LETTER FROM ATHEXS.
Editor Advertiser:
Perhaps it would not
be amiss to give your many loaders a
few items of raws from the city of
1 learning.
The rains of the last two weeks pro¬
duced the largest freshet ever
in Athens. The older citizens consider
if equal to the celebrated freshet of
1840 Tha dam at the Athens
| was broken, nnd two bridges that span
ued the Oconee were swept away,doing
I considerable damage L> trade, for the
: merchants depend to a considerable ex
: tent on the people of the country for
thetr support.
The mumps are,, prevalent here and
seem to bv. all the go They are not
very pleasant company, as 1 can testify,
for they c ose a persons j iwa so he can¬
not cat, and make him stay in doors,
but there is one consolation, they never
visit you but once.
The extension of tho North Eastern
is agitating the minds of tho people
| here and l trust it will eventually be
j completed. From Lula, the present
i terminus to Rabun Gap is only 57 miles
1 whicu could bo built for $12 000 per
mile amounting to the aggregate sum
of $(584 000. securing to North-East
Georgia a means of t ransporting her
products to market ar, a small cost, and
benefiting Athens and the country along
the route by bringing the trade of
mountains to th m. Then will prosper
itv dawn anew in th* mountain conn
ties, and her citizens instead of making
their surplus grain up into ‘‘mountain
dew,’’ will sell it fur a fair price and
realize a handsome profit from their la
lors. If the U. S- Government, instead
of sending raids through the mountains
tu to Ilnur hunt, her li.r citizens niri-/<mo S.iivn down 1 like 1 L-H, dogs, 1 , 7.3
would appropriate the amount necessa¬
ry for tho construction of this road it
would in the end be cheaper. Of course
I know this will never be done; but still
it is reasonable to suggest it. I am not
in favor of violating the laws of a coun¬
try but think that the mountain people
who do so should be pittied iustead of
being censured. They have no market
for their grain unless hauling it 50 or
75 miles, aud then the expenses incur
red m this takes all tho profits off their
! loads so as a natural consequence they
resort to the cheaper plan of boiling it
up in juice when it is stronger but oc¬
cupies less space, thinner but more cost
ly, aud this is the only way they can
make anything out of their products.

be thicker than if they were chopped.

I Success With Late Pla ited Corn.
,
For soiling stock and supplying my
table with green corn the past, season,
! began to plant tho last week in April
and so continued iq the 23rd of July.
This last, patch was tho Evurgreen
Sweet. 'I'his was done in rows four
feet apart, and the kernels dropped
three inches apart in tlyo row. The
rows rau North and South, and ! made
them this distance apart in order to let
the sun well in daring September and
October, which l thought could be
much better for the growth of mo crop
than if closer together. I preferred
drills instead of hills as I did not ex
pect tho corn planted so late cou.d
produce good ears, but would answer
well for sailing. September 5th the
corn began to tassel, on the I 2 th, to
silk. I then commenced cutting for
soiling, the stalks generally wore live
to nearly seven feet high. S t no lew
| ears wore tilled by October 16, and
! were picked for the table. No doubt i
j should have had many more at this
| time had the corn been planted in hills
| three feet apart or so in tho row, in¬
| stead of the kernels bring drilled in
only three inches apart. The latest
s falsa left for soiling remained green
till NoVeintel l l LllS .MtttWS h'MY 0 IAV
it is to grow corn for soiling from tho
1 st of July (when I began this season
to cut for that purpose), on to Novem¬
ber. four mouths in the htitude of
about 40 deg., where 1 have my suhm
mar residence. One tbits obviates tho
want of pasture for stock in a Summer
or Autumn drougtb. ' Corn is the most
reliable of all feed at this time, for if
properly cultivated it will grow sufli
cieutlv for soiling, however dry tuo

Do this, and people will learn to trust
