uiself the policeman took him down to
llurrold and Johnson’s wagon-yard, where
he claimed to lie stooping for the night.
Erskine accompanied his prisoner to the
door of the wagoners’ lodging-house. Stubbs
stepped inside of the door and called toone

making this request stepped to the

HAWKtNsviM.r, April tl—It becomes

exclaim: “Send for the doctor—ola, Lord!
how can I stand it?” He fell instantly af

Griffin, April 17.—Some time
1871, a white man named Wm. Brown,
iesident of Williaiusville,l*ikecounty, Ga.
was walking one Sunday afternoon in com
pany with two companions, when they met
a negro named Columbus Lovelace in the
road. Columbus had his coat off, hanging
on his arm. Brown stopped him and asked
why he had liis coat off. i/ovelace replied
because it was warm. Brown told him to
put it on. but Ixivelace refused. Brown
then told him if he didn’t put it on before
passing a certain bush, he would kill him.
Dwelace did not heed, and passed on,
- Brown, who had a pistol belted around him,
I pulled it out apd shot him dead.
| After the murder lie fled to Texas, and was
unheard of until some time since he put
himself in correspondence with relatives
here, regarding some settlements. His
whereabouts then became known to De

Wednesday and Thursday the case was

FLOW EES.
We do not admire the door, yard and sur

proved; there should he flowers for the
ife—pretty emblems and lender remind-
of a happy girlhood. She should be al
lowed to have them, that her home may
prosper with the peace, love and content
ment which their beauty and fragrance
betoken. Farmer, do not be too severely
radical; do not take a narrow view of life
and its requirements; make your farm
pleasant; so have it that in after life your
sons and daughters will look back to their
farm home with the most tender recollec
tions. Let health, peace, beauty and honor
live there and from thence will go out
those who, because of the home likeness of
dear old place, shall ever revere the
name of their parentage and the fireside of
their childhood. Make home cheerful with
flowers—have the trailing arbutus, the rich
;nd aromatic arethusj, the sweet scented
pagonia; fill your house with the perfunie
heliotroj»e; let azalias load the air with
their riches; let the clethra throw out its
long white spikes, filling tne air with sweet
perfunie, and have theapios, while conceal-
its purple clusters under the green
leaves, yet revealing its presence by the
fragrance that floats in the wind. Fix
your yard and have flowers—treas

the cow PEA.
Cow peas are not grown to the extent they
should be by our farmers. Lav off vour
land in three foot drills, dropping ten or
twelve peas together each short step, cover-
*'— with two light furrows, and breaking
the middles. When about one month
run one sweep furrow in the middle,
and repeat this again in four or live weeks.
ORATE EOT.
We have a letter before us, asking the
cause of grape rot. We believe that it is
pretty generally presumed now that several
:ircuinstances combine to produce it. In
first place, hot weather, and warmth and
moisture of the soil, cause rapid growth of
vines, a vigorous flow of sap to every
and berry, and of course a oorresponu-
ngly rapid progress o: elaboration and as-
ilation by the leaves and young fruit;
in order for these vital functions to go
freely, there must also be a corresponding
rate of evaporation of the watery ftortiou
of the sap from the leaves. Now if there
conies close, sultry, or muggy weather, then
evaporation from fhe graj»e leaves being
ped, there Isa pressure of sap in foliage
fruit which is just in the right condi
tion to invite the action of fungus spores,
causing mildew of leaf and wilting of berry.
trr.I.NC PLANTING OF Fr.tJfT TREES.
Have the ground well pulverized and put
fine order by plowing and subsoiling to
b depth of twelve or fifteen indies in the
rows where the trees are to be planted.
Wet lands are never suitable for orchards.
Transplanting may be done at any rate
when the ground is o(*en and free from all
frost and water. Do not plant too diep; in
fact no tree should be planted deeper than
grew before. The roots are often stifled
■ the want of air, or starved by the poverty
the soil. The roots of trees are very sen
sitive things, and a change of sanation not
favorable as before quickly shows itself
the decaying looks of the tree ami
branches. Nearly all the roots of the tree
that contribute to the production of the
fruit or wood are found near the surface,
and have little need of the subsoil for food.
Wlieie manure 1.* to tie applied, do not put
In contact with the roots, but either at
ie bottom of the holes dug for setting out
and then covered with eaith, or still better
by applying on the surface after planting.
The rains and frosts will leach the manure,
and it is in better condition to be absorbed
by the roots; also in case of drouth, no
damage will be done. In planting, examine
the roots; clean out all worms or insects. If
the roots are bruised or broken, prune by-
cutting from the underside of each enu.
Shorten in the tops and limbs in proportion
the loss of roots before planting.
CULTIVATING ORCHARDS.
screenings. But during the dav some cooked
food, tn which the skim milk should be
freely used, but not soar milk or sour bread
Chickens can be fed profitably four or five
times per day.
THE VEGETABLE GARDEN.
Parasitic insects are a source of trouble to
the garden, and great care should be taken
to protect young plan ts from these enemies.
The sads from carbolic soap sprinkled over
plants twice a week will keep away a great
many. Every good gardener should exam
ine his plants daily and catch and kill such
parasites as have not been kept away bv
other means.
Beans should be kept clean of weeds. In
planting the Lima, place the eye down. A
rich sandy loam is best for bean?—a well
rotted compost in which stable manure fig-
u r**l* r g e ly is the most grateful (ertilizer.
Cabbages should be put oat la good
ground so soon as the plants are large
enough to handle safely. Waiting for
plants to attain to large size before trans
planting is a.l wrong.
Cucumbers succeed best in warm, moist,
rich, loamy ground.
Melons, a warm, moist, rich, loamy soil
six its them best. There is no danger of get
ting the melon pa^ch too rich. The vines
should never be moved after thev have
commenced to blossom.
Okra is of easy culture and grows freely,
bearing abundantly on any ordinary garden
soil. It is sown at the usual time of all ten
der vegetables in drills two indies deep,
setting the plants some two two three feet
apart.
Parsnips—The soil should be mellow,
deep and of a rich vegetable character.
Sow in drills, cover lightly, and press the
surface with the back of the spade.
Squashes shonld not be planted until the
weather has become settled and warm.
Light soils are best suited; hills should be
prepared for the seed, incorporating two or
three shovels of well-rotted manure with
the soil for each hill.
Tomatoes—A rich, sandy soil suits this
,'lant best, though it does well on any kind
of good land.
COTTON CULTURE.
We are fully satisfied that the farmers of
tlie cotton states have perfected .arrange
ments to plant too much cotton this season.
Well, we desire to see them make a igood
crop.
Cotton requires a soft deep bed. M heavy
rams have packed the beds, run a harrow in
advance of opening plow. Cotton needs
only a light covering. It will sometimes
liap|*en that a heavy rain, followed by a hot
sun, will fall upon the field just after the
planting is concluded. Unless the soil is
quite sandy, the surface may bake in a
firm crust dVer the seeds, and delay their
sprouting. In this case it is a good plan to
pass lightly over the beds witli a harrow,
taking care to draw up the teeth so as only
to scratch the surface and crumble this
crust; this will also kill the first crop of
grass which will then be ready to come up.
MORE LIGHT.
Farmers should do all they can for the
agriculture of Georgia, and one way is to
improve themselves. The old-fashioned
farmer is now laughed at. Once even our
farmers laughed at the idea of the tillers of
the soil being educated, but now many of
them see what knowledge and science are
doing for them. They are learning what
nitrogen and potash and phosphoric acid
will do for their crops They are beginning
to understand how and when and where ami
why to use lime and salt and gypsum and
ashes. Yet many of them need more light.
They should know the mode in which dif
ferent fertilizsrs aid the growth of plants.
They should so improve themselves as to
ascertain whether a given commercial fer
tilizer really supplies needed elements of
plant fool, or develop those already abund
ant in the soil, but now inert or dormant,
or whether they stimulate only to ex
haust? It is becoming more necessary
the farmer to learn from ge
ology something as to tlie
formation of the crust of the earth, the
qualities and elements of the substances
which compose it. He must learn from
chemistry how to analyze his soil, to trace
out every element of its fertility and the
principles of its exhaustion and replenish
ment. It will teach him also the properties
and value of the different kinds of food for |
stock, what kind supplies the bone, what
the muscle and what iaysLOU the lat. Bot
any will instruct him of the nature and
structure of plants and their adaptation to
the soil ami climate of his home. Etomol-
ogy will teach him the habits of insects in
jurious to vegetation, and how to prevent
or remedy as far a* possible their attacks.
Natural philosophy will explain to him the
principles of mechanics. These principles
will learn him of horse Dowers, of the
forms of good plow?, of the digging a drain,
the construction of a good axletree. or the
proper harnessing of a horse. In short,
many of our Georgia farmers are rapidly
Learning that knowledge is power in agri
culture as well as in every other depart

OUR VISITORS.
In speaking of cultivating orchards, we
refer more |>articu1arly to apple trees. The
land should be dry; if not naturally ?o,
should be made so by draining for apple

As to situation, the highest ground on

The excursion train from Cincinnati
reached Atlanta Thursday at noon, with
180 passengers. The committee, consisting
of J. W. English, R. D. Spalding, Amos
Fox, E. P. Chamberlain, W. D. Grant and
Aaron Haas, were at the train to meet the
excursionists and escort them to the hotels
of the city, where dinners specially pre-
oared were in waiting for them. Before an
hour had elapsed all of them were com
fortably quartered and appeared to be enjoy
ing themselves. A good many ladies were
witli the excursion, which is composed of
the leading merchants and business men of
Cincinnati.
Some of the excurrionists say that they
were well received along the entire liue
from Chattanooga to Atlanta. At Marietta
numerous baskets of flowers were sent on
board of the train by the young ladies of
that city. A few of the ladies came out of
the cars and took a bird’s eye view of the
city. The trip from Chattanooga to Atlanta
was made in about four hours. Over some
portions of tlie road it is said that the train
ran at the rate of forty miles i»er hour.
During yesterday afternoon the excursion
ists were driven about the city in private
conveyances and all others that could be
procured. Many of the interesting sights
were looked upon, and the latter half of the
day made to pass as pleasantly as possible.
THE RECEPTION LAST NIGHT.
After enjoying the lovely afternoon in
driving about the citf, the excursionists
returned to their hotels for tea. About 'J
o’clock they gathered at the Kimball house
where a reception had been arranged for
them. Tlie aicade was brilliantly lighted
and gayly decked with national 11 igs. The
baud of the Fifth artillery discoursed
stirring music, giving all the popular airs of
the day.
At half-past nine the crowd assembled fn
the ball room where the visitors were for
mally welcomed. A large number of At
lanta ladies and gentlemen were present,
and extended to their guests a hearty
greetiug. The occasion throughout was re
markable for ita perfect sociality. Captain
J. \Y. J£ugiisli, chairman of the committee
of arrangements, presided.
Mayor Calhoun welcomed the guests of
the city as follows:
Ladies and Gestlemex—Hospitality is defined
to be tlie practice of welcoming visitors with

a common llag. And why should it not t>e so?

and that it will bring untold millions into the
west aud south. You have j lined us to
you bya magnificent railroad, running through
a country of splendid farms and beautiful scene

in its construction. siud which must inevitably
be grand in its results. You have honored us,

called it the Cincinnati Southern railroad. Few
cities would have undertaken it—few would
have comoletcd it; and 1 believe it will ri?ult in
gieat good for the entire south. You have bound
us to you by strong commercial tics; you have
bound us to y u by ties of iron, and now you
are binding us to you by the still stronger ties of
an unselfish friendship. By our social and
friendly visits we are learning to forget the past,
with its bitter memories, and to feel that we are
again one people and one country, and that, as I
said in your city, as the "red rose” and the
“white rose” are intertwined in the crown of
England, and the victories of Pompeii and Cscsar*
are the common renown of Rome, so the achieve
ments of the north and tlie south, the east and
the west, are the common glory of the American
people. And thus have our people come, in-
lormally, to greet you to-night, and to mingle
with you iti social converse and friendship, men
of the west aud men of the south are here to
night; fair ladies, too, from both sections have
brightened the occasion by tlu-ir presence, and,
like beautiful flowers, add loveliness and pleas

visitors upon this occasion, that which I know
will be most fully extended—our wannest south

and hospitality.

buy from agents who are a long ways front

go to your nearest nurseryman, if he is re
liable, and select good stocky trees. In set
ting them, be careful to have no vacancies
about the roots; use your baud* freely,
then pack the earth well around the roots,
stamp it well, and finish with loose soil,
and it is a good plan to mulch thre*» or four
ittefaes deep and reach out three feet each
way around the tree. The object is to re
tain the moisture in the ground. The or

conies well into (tearing in any hued crop;
re should be taken not to plow too near,
too deep near the trees.
QUESTIONS ANSWERED.
—Ilose Bugs—A good way to destroy
them, is to use fresh made quick-lime.
Give the vines or trees a good dusting of it
early in the morning, while the dew is
that the lime will stick.
—'The Escutcheon—We are asked to ex
plain what part of the cow that is? On the
udderof a cow, thence up between the legs
towards the tail, the hair points upward,
instead of downward, as on t he legs and
sides of the animal. This patch of hair
pointingthe wrong way” is the escutcheon.
—Repelling ants—Clean off the shelves,
and then bnndt them over with a strong
solution of alum water. Another, is to use
tartar emetic, mixed with white sugar.
For the quantity of sugar that a small
sauce plate would hold, put in as much
tartar emetic as you could put upon the
point of a large penknife blade. After it is
mixed, moisten it with water to prevent
the ants from carrying it off, and place it
where they can get it. It is simple and
effective.
•The lawn—Foi keeping up its freshness
and vigor—a spring dressing should be
given, either of ashes, truano, fine bone,
nitrade of soda, or a rich and thoroughly
fine compost. Sow grass seed on any bare
spots.
—House plants should be washed or spong
ed off with water once a week.
—To raise poultry—Have dry, vermin
proof roosting and laying quarters, clean
wa»er, gravel, lime, and a variety of grain
to choose from. If any hens arc found
lousy or sickly under such condition, kill
them. . Poultry should do some work for
their living. Scratching for their bread ii
healthy.
FLOWER ITEMS.
—The heliotrope should have a good sized
pot, with leaf mold and rotted manure. It
also requires a warm situation.
—If plants are inclined to grow strag
gling, pinch off tlie points of the shoots,
which will induce them to form a bushy
habit.
—If the central branches of the fuschia
are pinched off, they will bear more flowers.
—In pottir.g geraniums fill with good
earth composc-d of old rod, sand, leached
ashes, decayed leaves and well rotted ma
nure, and a handful of powdered charcoal
to each pot. well mixed with the soil. If
they are given tepid manure water, diluted,
once a week, they will produce splendid
flowers.
—Carbolic soap snds, with a few drops of
ammonia, is good to sponge the leaves of
plants. It brightens and prevents them
irom becoming infested with insects.
