MILLKPQKVIIiLW, MAY 10, 1W87.
An engineer by the name °f Craw
ford killed a negro desperado at Way-
cross, on Tuesday uiirnt last, in self-
defence. The negro had attempted
to kill a negro woman at JeMup and
secreted himself on the tender of
Crawford's locomotive and stabbed
Crawford three times before the latter
killed him. _
Between two and three o'clock, in
the afternoon of Wednesday last an
earthquake of considerable severity
occurred in a portion of California on
the west and embracing Arizona and
New Mexico and extending to El
Passo in Texas, and also south into
Mexico. It did considerable damage
to buildings in some places and the
shock must have been veiy severe in
some others, as large land slides oc
curred in some of the mountain
ranges and a volcano made its ap
pearance in the mountains twenty-
two miles south of Tucson, Arizona,
where none had ever been known to
exist before. It is said to be the first
earthquake ever known In Arizona
and it was particularly severe in the
region of Tucson, the capital of that
Territory. , .
Later advices than the foregoing
state that the reported appearance of
the volcano was a mistake, arising
from the building of large fires on the
mountains by the Mexicans.
THE TARIFF.
Sometimes we feel wrapped in a
vague dream in contemplating the
sentiments avowed by some of our
papers and people in Georgia and
other southern States on the present
high tariff. They are singing songs
in its praise and on their majestic
march they are absolutely telling
their readers that the tariff battle is
over in the South and protection
holds the flag. The Constitution, the
Augusta Chronicle and the Macon
Telegraph with their large subscrip
tion lists do not afford a test of public
opinion on the tariff. They are forc
ing their opinions upon public atten
tion and imagine that the increase of
their lists of subscribers, is a proof
of the changes of public sentiment
in favor of a tariff for protection.
They are good newspapers offered to
tne public on low terms, and extra
ordinary exertions are inu.de to place
them in the hands of the people.
With kind feelings towards the pro
prietors we take pleasure in their suc
cess, especially, in that ot the Augus
ta Chronicle with whose chief, Hon.
Patrick Wulsh.'we have had a long ac
quaintance and have esteemed and
admired for his noble und generous
qualities and his high order of abili
ties. We have no reason to doubt
the honesty of his convictions. There
is something fascinating and patriotic
in the idea of protecting American in
dustry and labor, and we would go as
far as any man in the United States
to really protect it, if it could include
all classes of our people. These gen
tlemen in Georgia, occupying high
and peculiar positions to do good,
emphatically declure that in their
opinion the protective tariff, while
sustaining the manufacturers against
foreign competition does not injure
the farming interest of the country
nor any other class of our people.
That is the old time doctrine which
Calhoun, Crawford, Forsyth, McDuf
fie, Hayne and all of the leading sta
tisticians of Georgia, Carolina, and
indeed, of the whole South, opposed
und resisted with constant and pa
triotic ardor. The question stands
to-day as it did up to tlie Pres
idency of James K. Polk, niul since
the close of the late civil war.
In arguing this matter it is better
to deal in specialties rather than gen
eralities. All through the w hole of
the contests on this great question
before the war and since,, the subject
has been confused by general state
ments with but a small share of spe
cific demonstrations. A few specific
and irrefutable demonstrations will
accomplish more than hundreds of
columns in reaching the intellects of
the masses. We' intended to begin I
some tariff laconics in this number of
our paper, but circumstances have
prevented our doing so in a satisfac J
tory manner.
We are not proposing to say much, j
f'ur articles will have the merit of
brevity. We shall neither flatter nor
abuse our opponents. We shall show
that immense sums are obtained
which do not go into the national |
treasury. We shall show that these
sums are not obtained from the for
eigners. We shall show that they are 1
paid mainly by the agriculturists, in
directly, and that it. is the cause of,
their loss and Insufferable troubles,
and that prosperity for them und
tneir children, will lie hopelessly lost
as long us the present protective tarill
shall continue to impoverish, if not
to degrade; them. They have tin-
power in their hands to destroy tin-
whole system of oppression, or sub
mit to the humiliation to which their
representatives subject them.

The Sparta lslmiaelite is a paper
of which old Hancock may well In-
proud. It. is the only paper iu the
county. Nothing is more valuable to
any community than a good local
paper. With the competition of
large, able and cheap papers synt out
from daily offices, good local papers
cannot exist without a liberal home
patronage. Hence we believe that,
for all county matters which require
publication, they should receive every
cent the law allows. Such a course
seems to be just, and, in our opinion,
is wise economy. We venture to say
this much without taking any part,
or even pretending to understand the
difference between the Ishmaelite and
the Commissioners of Roads and Rev
enue of Hancock county.

FARMING. *
Besides our usual aapply of farm
ing matter in our agricultural col
umns, we devote a portion of our reg
ular editorial columns to this matter
which is of so much, interest to a ma
jority of our readers, especially as
the special agricultural period is at
hand and has already progressed sev
eral weeks, in that, the greatest of nil
time, for the successful work of the
cultivators of the soil. It is, with the
cultivation of corn, as with that of
cotton, of the first importance to pre
pare the land well, both as to break
ing it up and giving it ample suste
nance for the plants. Wo may state
that com is made of the best quality
and greatest quantity, that is planted
from the middle of April to the mid
dle of May, or oven to the 20th of the
last named month. Within those pe
riods it is scarcely over checked by
the cold and it grows on under the
genial influence of warm soils and
gentle rays of sunlight. Many plant
the whole crons of corn between the
15th of March and 20th of April.
They imagine that much is gained by
this early planting; indeed, pushed
for time, they plant hastily to be
ready for cotton, the great money
crop* Any crop, whether corn or cot
ton, is checked in its growth by
spells of cold weather after the plants
come up. Too early planting exposes
the young plants to this check and
they are retarded in their growth
even to the extent of ten or fifteen
days according to the degree of tile
cold to which they are subjected. It
is said that nature acts witli unerring
certainty, and so it does. There may
be sufficient warmth in the soil, in
February to make corn come up, but
there may be cold enough following
to kill the young growth. Hence it
will not do’to rely upon very early
planting, for nature may both cause
It to come above the soil and in a
colder mood, may destroy it. The
great rule is to plant for certainty of
growing life to the plants. The farm
er may risk early planting of corn to
ready for early planting of cotton.
Wo suggest the planting of each at
a time when it will be almost impos
sible for either to be killed, or greatly
checked in its growth. But the plan
ter may fear that this plan will de
lay him too much and crowd him in I
his work. The delay, in planting
corn will delay him, he fears, in plant- j
ing his cotton. This idea lias done \
serious injury to many planters.
Corn planted the first of May will ,
make more than if planted the first of i
April, and cotton planted the middle !
of May will yield more than if plant-1
ed the first of .May. This will hold
good in nearly every case, if there is
no special preparation of the land
for the respective crops. But the
most successful farmers will take
ample time to put their land in order
for their crops. They will not, hasti
ly, half prepare the land for the
crops. They will at least run the
rows off for the seed, plow them
deeply, break up the clods, having
the manures thoroughly incorporated
in the rows and plant the seed at the
specified time. There will be no
rough clods in them, no grass or
weeds and when the seed comes up,
they will grow off rapidly, free from
very incumbrance of grass, weeds or
clods. The plants will grow <-lf rapic
ly with no frost or clods, to check
their growth. But one umv sav time
will not permit mo to do this", with
100 acres for corn and fifty acres for
cotton. We answer, reduce the num
ber of acres of each. Cutoff 20 acres
from the corn, and 10 or 15 acres from
the cotton. This will save much time
and labor and make the result great
er than it would be from the whole.
In short the whole policy is to enable
the farmer to keep his crop clean and
to give the growing crop a fair chance.
Every day's delay in going over it,
willjadd to its deterioration; thework
will be harder, "the plants will be suf
fering and the crop may be destroyed
or greatly impaired in its yields. Ten
acres thoroughly prepared will yield
more than thirty overrun with grass
and bruised by the hoes in cutting
out. the grass.
We have published Furman’s for
mula, and several others, not once
but' several times. Have the farmers
taken care to improve tln-ir crops bv
using them? Have they taken good
care of their cotton seed to bo mixed
with their barnyard and other home
manures? The great secret is to ma
nure heavily, incorporate thoroughly
and plant when all danger of frost is
over. We have seen accounts of re-,
uinrkubly fine cotton crops, that were i
made from seeds planted as late as the
first of June. We have selected
this subject out of others which pre
sent themselves, because of all the
people in our country the farmers are
the greatest sufferers by tlie protec
tive tariff. They are the greatest
sufferers by the war and by the un
just and barbarous legislation of Con
gress. Present indications leave but
little hope of their early exemption
from the robberies of the tariff. Oth
ers suffer from it, but the farmers
have to bear two-thirds of the iniqui
tous legislation.

at Columbia. Col. Calhoun was a

Hydrophobia.
From a gentleman who returned, on
yesterday, from Morgan, Calhoun
county, the News and Advertiser
learned the horrible details of a well
defined case of hydrophobia, that de
veloped on Mr. W. W. Rooks, a young
farmer of that county.
Mr. Rooks has been only two
months married, and ids young, grief-
stricken wife isnearly distracted with
fearful apprehensions.
On the 31st of March a strange dog
came into the yard on Mr. Rooks’
farm, und before he was aware of it,
tin* dog, which proved to be mad, had
fastened his fangs in Mr. Rooks' flesh.
Choking him off, he took hii axe and
cut tlie dog’s head off. On last* Mon
day, the second of May, he begun to
develop hydrophobic symptoms, at
the sight of water undergoing violent
physical suffering, and on Tuesday
the case was fully and awfully defined.
Every symptom of rabies appeared in

wife bad to be forcibly removed from
dangerous proximity to him whom
she loved better than her life.
No hopes are entertained for Mr.
Rooks’ recovery, and it is possible
that lie may now be dead.—Albany

The Seven Cuticura Boys
These seven beautiful boys owe their beauty of
skin, luxuriance of lialr, purity of blopil, and
freedom from hereditary taint or humors to the
celebrated Cuticura Remedies.
Thousands of children are born into the world
every day with some eczematous affection, such
as milk crust, scall head, scurf or dandruff, sure to
develop into an agonizing eczema, the itching,
burning and disfiguration of which make life a
prolonged torture unless properly treated.
A warm bath with Cuticura Soat, an exquisite
Skin Bcautiflcr, and a single application of cuti
cura, the Great Skin Cure, with a little Cuti
cura Resolvent, the New Blood Purifier, is
often sufficient to arrest the progress of the dis
ease, and point to a speedy and permanent cure.
Your most valuable Cuticura Remedies have
done my child so much good that I feci like say
ing this for the benefit of those who are troubled
with skin diseases. My little girl was troubled
with Eczema, and I tried several doctors and med-
elnes, but did not do tier any good until I used
tlie Cuticura Remedies, which speedily cured
her, for which I owe you many thanks and many
nights of rest.

who attempted to cure it; but it spread with al
most incredible rapidity, until the lower portion
of,the little fellow’s person, front the middle oi
his hack down to his knees, was one solid rash
ugly, painful, blotched, nnd malicious. We had
no rest at night, no peace by day. Finally we
were advised to try the Cuticura Remedies. The
