Columbus Times: Yesterday aliout n->on, in the facto ry boarding-house near the gas works, occurred one of the most shocking accident* that it has ever fallen to our lot hronicle. An infant, a girl baby of ten twelve months of age. was burned to death. The infant was the child of Mr. John ffardis who lives on the Echols place, acros* the river.

She was commanded by W. S. Clieesman, an old and ex- perience<l seaman, ami her first officer was Sir. L. M. Murray, at one time commander f the famous Nashville. It may lie re marked here as n singular coincidence that about seven years ago the steamship Cha*. W.

Everything that can be said has been said, and more too. Two or three hundred lies e been told on one side, and we admit that some slight prevarications have acci dentally slipped out on the other.

For three months your pa tience has been taxed and your credulity ]*j*ed on, and it's high time you were allowed to make up your verdict.

We have been asked for a remedy to re lieve cattle from bloat or hoven. Pulver ized charcoal is an excellent agent for re lieving cattle suffering from any derange ment of the stomach. BEEKDIXG SOWS. In the early spring provide sows with dry, warm pens. Cold pens have killed many pigs. Before a sow brings forth her young she should be separated from the other hogs. In looking after the breeding sows,do not permit them to become too poor. CUT WORMS. Several times we have received communi cations asking for remedies for cut*worms. have, in former issues of The Constitu- r, suggested remedies, but say to our readers now that clean culture is the best way to avoid them. Fall plowing and har rowing is an excellent way to destroy worms. STREET CAR HORSES. The Philadelphia street car company, af ter experimenting in regard to the feed of their horses, now give chopped corn and hay. The horses fatten rapidly on this food, and it gives them greater strength and endurance than any other. TREE PLANTING. We have been asked a question or two re garding the planting of fruit trees. As long the ground remains open and tlie tem perature is not freezing, trees may be p lanted. If the root* be well spread, and the soil properly settled down over them by tramping, they will need no stakes. A GOOD FERTILIZER, all the bones on the farm.

Dr. Dunlay, one of the government coin- wion who has been examining the hogs Iowa, rejiorts just what The Constitu tion has frequently predicted: that is, that there is hut little Log cholera,but much bail treatment, miserable looking after, and very indifferent keeping* He says where he ex amined hogs In pens, tlie pens were nasty and never cleaned; when they were in fields, they were fed on sour grass, sour slops, and fed in filthy pools. _ When the hog was treated decently, no disease could lie found.

For race horses it excellent. FRESH MANURE. ii walking about Atlanta we notice some flower-growers are making arrangements to itect their plant* this winter, and some placing fresh straw manure around roses 1 other plants. ^ This, in our judgment, ill result in an injury. Young plants are juently killed fmm the salt in the straw manure. Pure, good straw will answer very not rank, fresh straw manure. If plants require covering, anil straw is not handy, dry leaves with a little dirt thrown :ry good. APPLE TREES. Many fruit growers object to tlie low training of apple trees. Perhaps they are wrong in their judgment. Low trained protected from the blighting of the trunks by the heat of the sun. Tlu* fruit is kept near the roots of the trees, ami ital force is washed in carrying the nourishment from the soil. The apples can be gathered easier from such trees.

SCRATCHES ON HORSES We have received a letter from Cherokee county, asking for a remedy for scratches horses. A very g-xxl remedy is to keep the lower part of the leg washed clean witli castile soap, and apply a mixture of lur-l and gun)Miwder. Another is to wash the sores thoroughly with warm*water and cas tile soap, then rinse off with clean water after this rub dry with a cloth. Ther grate some carrots and bind them on th- sores. Repeat this every day for four or fi v< days. CHICKEN CHOLERA. A correspondent from Clayton count ishes to know a remedy for chicken chol era If he will refer to the back number* of The Constitution he will find several. We will give an additional one this morn ing. Remove the hens from their present location. Then make a change in their usual food. Give to each hen a pill com posed of five grains of powdered chalk, fiv grains of powdered rhubarb, three grains c Cayenne pepper, and a little mucilage. If rel'axation continues, mix one grain of opium and one grain of ipecacuana, and give each hen every five hours. Let them have no water except that in which lime has been slaked. will be on the farms. The orchard and the garden will beautify the landscape. Farm ers, with due respect, will discard the old ideas of the fathers???quit planting by dark moons, or pointing stars, but will adopt m w methods, employ new agricultural imple ments, cultivate their lands in the best manner, and greatly improve their farm stock. FARMING. The Georgia legislature will meet in a few days; in the making of laws, and in provi ding for the well-doing of the people, it is hoped that farming???the great interest of our state???will be looked after, and that laws will be enacted that will give it a stimulus. Laws are needed in regard to our public roads; protection should be ex tended to sheep: m fact there are other provisions requisite for the well-doing of the farmer. The Constitution will refer to these matters at another time. Who does not recognize the importance of agriculture? Who does not admire its beauties? Lord John Russell not only con fessed to its importance, but wrote also on its advantages in a moral point of view. Swift thought that whoever "could make two ears of corn or two blades of grass grow upon a spot of ground where only one grew before would deserve better of mankind, and do more essential service to his country than the whole race of ixiliticians put together.??? Lord Chat- ham thought "trade increases the wealth and glory of a country, but its real strength and stamina are to be looked for among the cultivators of the land,??? and our own poet, ???hittier. says: Give fools their gold, and knaves their power. Let fortune???s bubbles rise and fall; ???ho sows a field, or trains a flower. Or plants a tree, is more than all." Farming is a business just as are commer cial matters, manufactures, or any other trades. Members of the legislature are ever ready to look after merchants and manufac turers, and advance their interest. We trust that as agriculture supplies much of tlie life of our state, it may meet with much con sideration from the general assembly. PROFITABLE COW. Keep a good cow, one that will feed well and pay you back In milk. The right cow i keep is the one that will eat all the owner ill give her, and in return give him go-xl interest. Give your cow good shelter in had weather; give her pure water, and now for awhile fee-1 her -in a mixture of bran and meal; the bran will make her produce milk, \vjule the meal will fatten her. THE HORSE. Wet days and chilly winds will soon be U]xiii us. True there will be no jwrticular hard work for the horse during winter, hut not neglect him on that account. See that he lias a sufficient*.* to eat and a com- irtable stable to stay in. It is a reflection upon the fanner who permits his horse to roam over bare fields in the had weather -luring the day, ami shiver in the fence-cor ner in the stormy nights of winter. Give him a goo-1 warm stable, fee-1 him well ami give him a pleasant bed of leaves or straw to sleep on. BLOODY MILK. ;e that cows sometimes give bloody inilk. Administer a -lose of laxa- tine medicine, composed of half a pound of epsdln salts, a pound -if treacle and a pint of beer, mixed together, externally to the affected quarter; may lx? applied twice daily after each milking, a cooling and as tringent lotion.

FARM NOTES. meal is excellent for cows.

Kimball, assistant quartermaster of tlie de partment of Missouri, has been ordered to report here for duty .and will fill the vacancy THE GARDEN. Let the garden receive due attention at this season. Beds that are not in use should lie manured broadcast and roughly spaded under. Cold winds and rains and mud and ieet will come after awhile; make general improvements in the garden now and have ready the ground as far as possible for spring work and planting. Flowers that are tender should be re moved to pits or green-houses. A pit can be easily made by removing dirt three feet, which place* a hot lied frame and sash If they are not on hand use boards.

If this is done, the tools will l??st longer and be better. FALL PLOWING. This is beautiful weather to plow the fields for the next crop. Are you engaged it. farmer?

Eggs and oultrv can always be deluded upon, there- _jre those who breed and raise chickens should know all about them. To raise chickens, and have plenty of eggs for home consumption and for market, requires a little patience, time and trouble. Feed and care ???ill tell either in eggs or in'flesh. Bone meal is very good to mix with the f-xxl of chickens. ICJit is not convenient to I imcure bone meal, teed some animal f-xxl. f the object is to have eggs, feed lilier- ally with refuse meat, chopped in winter. Some chicken raisers boil the meat and bo with soup, chopping it fine and mixing with meal. Once a week, mix with the chicken food (say for fifty chickens) one-half a table- sixMinful of pepper, one dozen medium sized onions, one tablespoonful of sulphur, and one-half a quart of ground charcoal. This, with green food, chopped cabbage and comfortable Quarters should give plenty of eggs and fat chickens. As to the grain food, chickens should not be fed exclusively on com. The greater the vari ety of foo-i the better the returns from the fowls. If you have chickens you wish to fatten quick for market, place some fifteen twenty in a closed coop that is clean and comfortable, wihtout crowding them too much. Give them fresh water to drink ith a little cayenne i??epper thrown into two or three times a week, fee-1 them three times a day on boiled corn and wheat meal with |Hitat<ies (a little salted), one part of each, into which, while hot, stir a pound of lard, or beef tallow, to six or eight quarts of the mash. Feed this while warm; have a of coarse gravel lmndy: occasionally a little powdered charcoal with the soft food. In three weeks the chicken: be very fat. HOGS. Always a subject of interest, we therefore offer no excuse for writing aliout the hog repeatedly. Farmer, push up your fatten ing hog. Have him ready for killing the first suitable weather next month. The eather is beautiful now. The lio; take on fat finely, as whatever he eats will make fat. and is not lost keeping up animal lieat. Discard the old idea that the hog is a dirty, filthy animal that can eat whatever is offered, and sleep anywhere. Give him a comfortable place to sleep, make him a bed of leaves or straw, and the hog will thrive, and the owner will have good manure for his ground. Very often we have seen kill ing hogs shut up in miserable pens, covered with mud, water and filth, and have wondered how the j??oor animals could thrive. Pure air is essential to hogs; let them have it. Very recently in Atlantu, we have had ordi nances* relative to pig-pens, established by the city government. A pig-pen should never be a nuisance to a town, to the farm or to the hog, and if it is, the fault is in the owner, not the animal. Not only this, but it is poor economy to l**t tin richness of the manure in the i*en eseajxs ami annoy any one. when it should lx? utilized to make land rich. See to it that the hog is kept clean; be will be thrifty, and will stand but little chance of being taken off by cholera, but will eat and sleep well, and grow fat by the time he is wanted for i*ork. armiiii umiMFiMT EVERY HOUSEKEEPER in THE COUNTRY Should read this very carcful.v, and learn how to secure A HANDSOME SET OF SOLID SILVER PLATED SPOONS,.

We have received a communication from southwest Georgia, a-king about tlie dis- ease???hog cholera. So many prescriptions have been recommended, and so many have failed, that The Constitution is a little slow in making a suggestion. A southwest i??r - ??? Georgia fanner is very* confident that cottor atsuch'an'angle as will cause the water to ] >ved will cure this disease. Its duration i; rin off Ground thns prepared will be in a ! from seven to fourteen days, and tlie disease ??? -- ??? - ??? ??? be taken m from s*even to fourteen ??lay I Kisure. There is one thing ver the disease???bad air. crowding, bad food and bad water will cause the dis- ???d |. ndition to allow moisture to escape the atmosphere to penetrate. If your land utter is not plowed the soil will not pulverize. Unplowed, water will saturate the soil, and it will turn up raw in the spring. There other advantages attending plowing land now. Surface weeds will be disposed of and root weeds will be killed. When the soil is exposed to cold and frost, worms and other insects will be destroyed. Georgia has been blessed with a large number of fairs this year. It shows that anything else. Filth great canse of the disease???dirty, muddy pens or lots to stand in. Bad water is another cause. Hogs, in fact all stock should have pure," good water. Some hog-raisers are firmly of the opinion that inter-breeding will gen erate cholera. A gentleman of considerable experience in hog raising, and one who has UUU1U[I v , j examined the disease closely and- experi- agriculture ia advancing, and that farmers I mented considerably, gives the following are growing in their calling. The benefits J receipt, which he states he has used on hogs _ of these annual gatherings will be felt more with great advantage. Hypo-sulphite soda , custom* receipt* to^flay 9276.000.

I ^AIN in the right side, under the edge of the rib-v, increases on pres sure ; sometimes the pain is in the left side; the patient is rarely able to lie on the left side; sometimes the pain is felt under the shoulder blade, and it frequently extends to the top of tlie shoulder, and is sometimes mistaken for rheumatism in the arm. The stom ach is affected with loss of appetite and sickness; the bowels in general are costive, sometimes alternative with lax; the head is troubled with pain, accompanied with a dull, heavy sen sation in the back part. There is gen erally a durable loss of memory, accompanied with a painful sensation of having left undone something which ought to have been done. A slight, dry cough is sometimes an attendant. The patient complains of weariness and debility: he is easily startled, his feet arc cold or burning, and he com plains of a prickly sensation of the skin; his spirits are low; and although he is satisfied that exercise would be beneficial to him, yet he can scarcely summon up fortitude enough to try it. In fact, he distrusts every remedy. Several of the above symptoms attend the disease, but cases have occurred where few of them existed, yet exam ination of the body, after death, has shown the liver to have been exten sively deranged. AGUE AND FEVER. Dr. C. McLane???s Liver Pills, in cases of Ague and Fever, when taken with Quinine, arc productive of the most happy results. No better cathartic can be used, preparatory to, or after taking Quinine. We would advise all who are afflicted with this disease to give them a fair trial. For all bilious derangements, and as a simple purgative, they arc un- cqualed: I1EWAIU: OF IMITATIONS. The genuine are never sugar coated. Every box has a red wax seal on the lid, with the impression Dr. McLane???s Liver Pills. The genuine McLane???s Liver Pills hear the signatures of C. McLanb and Fleming Bros, on the wrappers. Insist upon having the genuine Dr. C. McLane???s Liver Pills, prepared by Fleming Bros., of Pittsburgh, Pa., the market being full of imitations of the name Me Lane, spelled differently but same pronunciation. 000 nov3 difcwly cow next rca??l mat I brie* 5a5>^;j>rint*_4}???????*>*?????; brov 378 jun??22...deowly Awkyeowljr FINANCIAL. r-Y*. sWtfngs 7; , bleached sheetings | bleached sliirtings la8; checks Salih;; yams 85.
