Small Grain Crops, The farmers are just now seeding or prep&r iiUC to seed their small grain crops, and we hope they will aU seek to display anew and greater productive energy in these crops.— Georgia, we are persuaded, is in a far belter latitude for the production of wheat than those sections ot lire Union which now supply the bulk of American breadstuffs. We mean to say that the same quality of land and similar culture will hring, in Georgia, a heavier and more certain product and a better wheat, than in what are now considered as peculiarly the wheat regions of the continent. The latter point, that is to say, the superiori ty of Sou them wheat and flour, is established by every market quotation, and has therefore ceased to be a matter of dispute. But may it not, with equal certainty, he assumed that a uniform superiority ol quality indicates the existence of all the best conditions of climate for heavy cropping? The land may be loss fertile, but that is a remediable defect. And this defect would be far less apparent with bet ter culture. The Ohio farmer mellows his soil to a great depth, and often so lows in the furrow with his subsoil piow—using lour strong horses in the two plows. He then follows with his planter, which, at the pace ol a horse, makes a series of dritls to the width of a barrow, of uniform depth and distance, drops the seed with great uniformity, applies the fertilizer with equal nicety and covers the drill with perfect regu larity—all at a single operation. Next, •he passes a wooden or iron roller over the whole ground, pressiug the earth closely around the seed, so that a uniformity of germination is in . stired, and a level surface is left for nice and convenient harvesting. Now wc will not undertake 10 say what the more enlightened Georgia planters do—but the common process of seeding may be thus de scribed : Some scatter the seed upon the un broken field aud then scratch it in with a little turn-plow drawn by a mule, and turning up the soil to the depth of three inches or less— That is the most rudimental plantiug. Others break up the ground first, with the same kind of a plow to the same depth, then scatter the seed and brush it in, by drawing over the land a row of brushes attached to the traces of a mule. Contrast, then, the conditions of the crop for production in Ohio and in Georgia. Now we have that faith iu the superiority of the Georgia climate for the production of wheat, that we entertain no doubt that the good common lands of Georgia, cultivated in the same way, would, iu a series of years, outstrip the good common lands of Ohio, though those of phio are prob ably far more fertile than ours. We think the difference in climate would more than counter balance the advantage in the soil. The Georgia fanner would beat the Ohio farmer both in the quantity and quality ot his wheat and also iu the price obtained for it. The single acre products on the light soil of Athens, last Spring, show what can be done in wheat growing in Georgia with pains-taking; and that, iu truth, is the only way to do any thing. What sense is there, we ask, in that kind of abortive farming which produces three to six bushels of wheat to the acre, when with better, you can have forty bushels, as some ot the Athens men did ? Is it not cheaper to till one acre thoroughly and give it the proper ma nure—thau ten or twelve acres in the barbarous lashion we have described? There can be but one answer to the question. Hence we ardently desire to see our planters inspired with the ambition to test the capaci ties of the soil end climate by thorough culii vatiou, rather than to number acres under the plow. One man will say I have fifty acres in wheat, and ought to make, with good seasons, three hundred bushels. Let his neighbor say, I have twenty acres in wheat, under thorough culture, and I hope to make six hundred bush els. One man will say, I have a hundred acres in cotton, and expect to make thirty bales. Let his neighbor say, I have put only fifty in cotton, and I look lor that number ol bales, at least. The smaller area you take to accomplish given results, the less waste and the greater profit and satisfaction. It is a grand, grateful and proud spectacle to the planter to see his crops striving to do the very attnostsuch crops can do ; but to see a starved, shriveled and meagre crop is as repulsive as a starved horse the very emblem of famine aud poverty. A remarkable cavern has been recently dis covered in Salisbury, a township in the North western corner of Connecticut, which promises, when fully explored, to take rank among the natnral wonders of our country. It has been partly explored, and found to contain many beautiful chambers, adorned with sno#y sta lactites and gypsum formations.

Sri-tPccklH Constitutionalist. A Retired Editor's Farm. COLOKKL W. S. KINO’S BLOODED STOCK IN MIN NESOTA. A writer in the St. Paul Pioneer describes the fine stock-farm of Col. W. S. King, three miles from Minneapolis, Minnesota. Col. King is a veteran newspaper editor, who some years age retired from active life, and now devotes his attention to liis blooded stock. His farm com prises two hundred acres, of which one hun dred acres are in grass and fifty in lorest land. The writer says: “Col. King has given to Minnesota by far the most valuable herd of shorthorns ever brought Into any Western State. Among them is the ‘Sixth Duke of Geneva,’ a pure Duchess bull, red and while, not yet six months old, but thus early exhibiting those remarkable points of excellence and beauty which have given to that, family of 6hort-horns their world-wide celebrity ;jpd immense value. The young Duke comes marked with the significant figures $3,000. Theu follows ‘Blush,’ a fire-pear old cow of magnificent form and proportions, with five distinct crosses of the Duchess in her blood. This cow Col. King esteems his best, if any ‘best’ can be. distinguished in the splen did herd; her cost fa SI,OOO. By the side of ‘Blush’ stands ‘Varuna,’ a noble animal, equal in size and beauty to her companion, and high up in the Ducbeas blood, being fifteen-six teenths. With these two I also notice ‘Nan netb,’ a beautiful specimen of the high-bred short-horn, flue cut head, large fall eye, deli cately-tapered neck well set on to the deep breast and shoulders so characteristic of this breed of cattle. At her side is her bull-calf sired by ‘Royal Duke of Oxford.’ “ The stock bulls to be used with this noble herd are ‘Wellington’ and the ‘Sixth Duke of Geneva.’ The former was two years old in April last, was bred in New York, is a deep red, of woudcrfnl length and proportion, and one of the finest animals I have ever seen. — Judging lrom his dam aud sire and his present promise, Col. King estimates his weight at full maturity at from 2,500 to 2,700 pounds. He is as gentle as a lamb, aud is highly valued by his owner. Squares. 1 Week. 1 2 Weeks. I 3 Weeks 1 Month. 2 Months 3 Months. 4 Months w 5 Months 0 Months. “ Since liis arrival from the East, with these animals he has purchased of N. M. Prescott, of St. Anthony, his ‘Jersey’ or Alderney stock, consisting of the well kuown bull 1 Minnesota,’ a magnificent animal of nnqnestioned pedigree, and his cow ‘Bukey,’ with her yearling heifer calf. To these Col. King will add some ten or twelve head of Jerseys from well known herds at the East the coming Spring. Os the value of these breads of cows much may be said ; the milk far exceeds iu richness that of any other stock, and I have seen two and one-half pounds of the best quality of butter made from three pounds of their cream. The milk is of such consistency in the full Goods as not easily to be run through a common strainer. “The Ayrßhires, of which Col. King is so proud, are all from the herd of those celebrated importers and breeders of Ayrshires, Walcott & Campbell, ol New fork Mills, Oneida coun ty, New York. At the head of these I find his stock bulls ‘Scottish Chief’ and ‘Rob Roy,’ the former one year old in May last, a beautiful specimen of this breed of cattle. “ While thus devoting himself more exclu sively to the breeding of fine cattle, Col. King is not ‘ blind ’ to good horses, and lie last Fall purchased a high bred and beautiful mure in New York. Bhe also will reach here the com ing season. “ Iu conclusion, Col. King proposes to have nothing but ibe best of everything which goes on to his farm, and his example, though a bold one, will encourage others having the means to follow in his footsteps." [From the New York Commeroial. An Incident of the Episcopal Convention aud Fifth Avenue Boarding Houses. Abont the time of the arrival of the delegates to the General Episcopal Convention a singular con tretemps occurred, in which a “prominent member of Grace church” and a Southern clerical delegate assumed the leading parts. It appears that a “ prominent, member of Grace church" called at a fashionable Filth avenue boarding house, and told the landlady that he had beeu charged with I lie care of two clerical delegates to the Convention ; and the price at the Fifth Avcuue Hotel was too heavy, and that he thought he would billet them on her if she could accommodate them, it being for one week. She conseuted to provide lor them, and iu the course of a few days cue clerical delegate ap peared and engaged rooms. At the expiration of the first week the “prom inent member of Grace church” called on the landlady and tendered her tweuty-dollars, say ing that he had ascertained the convention would contiuue Iu sessiou for more thau one week, and thut he should not staud the expense for so long a time! He therefore begged her to inform her clerical lodger that he must pay his own bills, hereafter. This the lady declined to do ; but she offered to write Bishop Potter, informing him that a “ prominent member of Grace church” declined fulfilling his agreement. To this the “ prominent inetnher of Grace church objected, and said as he had already ex pended some $6,000 this year in charities —be- sides being one of the dozen prominent mem bers on whom the expense of supporting Grace church devolved—he could not pay the parson’s board bill for the second week. Finding; lie coaid not mould the landlady to his wishes, he retired, and afterward sent the delegate his card, on which was written, “ I have settled one week lor you, aud now you must be responsible.” It so happened that the clerical delegate was not iu the impecunious condition which the I J . M. of G. C. imagined, but was at the time in search of a music teacher of the same name as the P. M. ot G. C. Conse quently the message appended to the uanie on the card greatly mystified the worthy clergyman. The matter, however, passed from his mind until the adjournment of the convention, when he bethought him ot engaging a music teacher. He, therefore, looked up the address of the sup posed music teacher on the card, called, sent iu his uame, aud was ushered by the servant into a magnificent parlor, where lie encountered the burly P. M. ol G. €., to whom he was about sialiog his business, when he was rudely in terrupted with “Oh ! I know what you want. 1 have paid one week for you, and I cau’t do it any more. There is no use of coming to me : I cau’t afford it. My charities are too expen sive ; cost me over $6,000. Besides, Brown told mo it would ouly last a week.” Imagine the consternation of a Southern clerical gentle man at being thus rudely addressed by a sup posed music teacher. Explanation followed, and we are glad to know this purse proud P. M. of G. C. was properly rebuked by his cleri cal visitor. Spanish Items —A Paris correspondent of the Courier des Etats Unis writes that the letter of Gen. Prim in favor of a coustitutional monarchy iu Spain is not favorably received by the French Democrats. Like our Radicals, they are gentlemen of ideas, which, though ex ploded a thousand times, they never fail to bring forth at every national crisis. The cor respondent continues, that it has been a secret to no one, that Prim, Serrano, Olozaga and the rest of the chiefs have been from the beginning in favor of the constitutional monarchy—be lieving that a Republic is not adapted to the ideas of their country and to the necessities of the situation. But if tho people, through the Cortes, shall declare for a Republic, the chiefs will acquiesce and make the best of it they can. As to the candidates, the correspondent re pudiates all who have been mentioned. Olozaga has recently informed the Provisional Govern ment that the Queen is willing to resign in favor of Don Carlos, the representative of the elder branch of the Bourbons. This announce ment may mean something. If the heir of legi timacy would in good faith accept a throne, surrounded by free institutions, it might be a very happy solution of all difficulties. Vr hen the mob broke into the Jesuit Con vent, at Madrid, they found it stored with “ superb hams and magnificent sausages,” to the scandal of the holy fraternity. The same correspondent says the breezes from the Rhine are very different from those comes across the Pyrenees. They smell of war. The Franeo-Prnssian situation is more and more stretched every day, and grave events may be expected soon. “Permit me (adds the writer) to tell you a fact, which I have from a sure source, and will be conceded in a month. Know then, Von Bismarck has not been unwell at all—has had no fall from his horse—has thrown away his crutches, and was never bet ter in his life than during the past three months, which he devoted to working up the Spanish Revolution, carrying on his work by verbal orders, never venturing to put hand to paper a single time.” r A New York sketcher sketches Madame De morest thus : “ Madame D. is of medium bnild, a handsome, black-eyed woman, whose busi ness talent is immense. By virtue of the pub lication of a magazine she has begn enrolled a member of the Women's Club. She has a hus band who, it is said, adores her, and she is an excellent wife and mother. She is sagacious, clear headed, and has aa aptitude lor money making.’ 1 ; thq<* , The Earthquakes. An article, of which the following are ex tracts, was contributed to Hunt's Merchant? Magazine just after the recent South America convulsions, aud three weeks "before the crash in California: It was long sinfee observlMf I>y European ge ologists ol eminence that the visible direction of the great fissures left In tbe earth’s surface by ancient convulsions, might enable this to f al low tbe progressive movement of these explo sions of the subterreanean forces. It is certain that every earthquake, by dismissing the cohe sive force of ajhfre or less, considerable seg ment of the fissure, must facilitate the infiltra tion of the earth's superficial waters into the centres of explosions, and so prepare fresh dis turbances of the same kind. California and Oregon are in the direct line Northward of these fearful South American convulsions, ts there no reason to fear that the forces which have just produced such terrible effects upon the earth's crust in the Southern Continent, mag at no dis taw day bring about a similar series of catastro phes in the Northern Continent also t It is com monly thought, we believe, that the earthquake belts, as they may be called, range in the direc tion of latitude rather than of longitude. But that this is an error clearly appears, for exam ple, from the fact that the eruptions of Vesu vius, and the earthquakes attendant upon them, have frequently been attended or followed by earthquakes and explosions in and around tbe Icelandic volcanoes. It would at all events be possible, and it certainly would be important, to gather some valuable indications as to this point from the traces of the recent earthquakes in South America while they are yet fresh, and still bear their formidable story legibly upon their fronts. ##.#*#■* Nor would au investigation such as we sug gest be valuable only from its bearinga-upou the possible future of our Northern Hemis phere. The position of the great metalliferous veins of the earth necessarily bears she most in timate relations to the geographical distribu tion of the earth’s crult, or, in other words, to the furrows made by the central fire. Whether the metallic salts were brought through these furrows by the action of tbe infiltrating waters, or whether the veins of metal were poured molten in masses through the crust from be low makes uo practical difference. In either case it is through the farrows formed by ig neous action that the penetration took place, and consequently the distribution of the pre cious metals depends upon the situation of these deep interior “solutions of continuity,” which are crused by the voleauie movements in the underworld. The reported disappear ance of the silver veins of Huaucavelica in duces the belief that from a close examination of the effects of the earthquakes in that district alone, information of the highest practical im portance to our mining interests in the United States may be procured. A series of investiga tidn3 made by a French geologist, M. de Ciian courtois, some years ago, into the bituminous deposits of Seyssel and Clermont, revealed the fact that these deposits occupied lines ol posi tion exactly parallel to the direction of the sys tem of superficial upheavals in the low coun tries. And a report, written by M. Gauldree Boillean, now Consul-General of France in New York, which appeared some years ago in the French Annales des Mines, on oil region of North Ametica, showed that the chief oil de posits of the United States arc situated on a line which prolongs tbe net work of fissures through which the S . Lawrence passes to the sea. Night Wokk.—Tom Bfoore spoke truly when he said that the best of all ways to lengthen our days is to steal a few hours from the night. Only we must steal for a good purpose, not lor pleasure • or dissipation, else we are losers instead of gainers by tiie theft. Moderate night work does no hurt to bodily or mental health, hut rather the contrary, I fancy, and I speak from experience. Note how well, and to what old ago, nocturnal toilers and watchers retain their strength and faculties. Look at astrono mers, whom in our mind’s eye we always re gard as snowy locked, yet vigorous minded, strong framed men. And are they not, as a rule? Remember Galileo, living to seventy eigtil, Hevellus watching MU he was sevfetity si*. and Copernicus till he reached seventy. Take our English astronomers Royal, too. There was Flamsteed, who, in spite of a dis ordered body, toiled by night and by day, harder, as he said, than a corn thrasher, aud yet reached seveuty-three ; Bradley, who did as much night watching, ran out the allotted period ol three-score and ten years ; aud his successor, Maskejype, told four-score all but. one year. Then- call to mmd grand old Hersehei, whose and lily labors and night watch ings lasted so long, and were performed so well that he may be said to have done the work of three lives, and he reached the good age of 81. And hove ige ppf fiis son, a giant in science, who stole hour nft,er hour froin tbe starry nights of his youth, and gives ns now sparkling essays and sound lessons fraught with the ex perience which 76 years have gathered to his garner ? Lastly, learn that BJaedlcr, who is now 74, came to ihe British Association meet ings a lew weeks back, and told the oayans something that proved his eye—after an opera tion for cataract—and his intellect to be as good as they were when, thirty years ago, he made his noble map of the moon, a work that must have involved night-watching to send an ordi nary eight.hoijr sleeper into au everlasting doze. Whose wishes to rpb the night to the iiestadvantage, let him sleep for two oy three hours, then get up and work for two hours, and then sleep out the balance of she night.— Doing this, be will not feel tne loss of the sleep he has surreddered— Qnee a Week. Young Ladies, Bkwahk!— Tbe New Yoik Sun is severe ou what it calls the silly lashion which our young ladies sometimes employ in writjug their Christian names. To illustrate: A detailed report of a fashionable wedding conveys the information that a young gentle man who bears the noble name of Lionel has just been united in wedlock to a lovely maiden named Jennie, and that among the brides maids on the interesting occasiou three were namdfi, respectively, Lettie, Annie aud Gertie. Tbe ladies were all diessed in the height of the fashion, aud some of the most popular gems from Offenbach’s operas were performed. The young ladies who thus give to public no toriety the pet names conferred on them while they yet bloomed in the seclusion of tbe nurse ry, do not mean, of course, to be guilty of Vul garity aud impertinence, but they are ; and we speak of their fault because it is so general, es pecially among iguorant and thoughtless peo ple. It is all very proper for Lionel to address his brile by the sweet, affectionate appellation of Jennie, but that is a privilege of his situa tion to which the general public cannot be ad mitted without a violation ot propriety. When the name of the young woman comes to be priuted on her visiting card, or in a newspa per, it should be done decorously and simply as Jane. So of her bridesmaids ; their right names are Letitia, Anne and Gertrude, and it is nobody’s business by what tender abbrevia tions aud expansions of those appellatives they may be named by their mothers or their future husbands. There is a rumor abroad that Mr. Carlyle is engaged upon a life of George IU, of whom he proposes to make a hero. The London Review remarks : “It is impossible to say what Mr. Carlyle may not do, but we sincerely trust that there is Tio foundation for the report. Indeed, when one thinks of the great genius who wrote the history ol the French revolution, who in terpreted Cromwell for us, who first acquainted his countrymen with the spirit ot modern Ger man literature, and then of the sham political prophet who pnt slavery into a nnt shell and afterward shot Niagara, one is disposed to think that after a certain age no man whose reputa tion is vainable to bis country should be per mitted to write. We hqpe Mr. Carlyle will let the poor, dull old King alone, if there is any : thing in the rumor beyond the suggestion of a feeble satirist.— Ex. “ The Hidden Hand.”— A new and curious edition of this work has been laid upon our table by that, enterprising firm, Messrs. Tuttle & Adams, 17 Commerce street. We have ex amined it with even more interest than we did the original that came to us with uncut leaves, it is a perfectly shaped human baud, half closed, and with the thumb and Augers perfectly shaped, in a corn cob from which the grain has beeu removed. No more singular freak of nature has come before us than this, and we gratefully “ acknowledge the corn ” to Messrs. T. & A., and to Mr. H. J. Savage, of Claiborne, who “ raised the hand,” though not in anger. It is an honest hand, for it never held a grain that was not its own ; and liberal it must be, for we never have seen a hand that had shelled out more freely and effectually. [ Mobile Register.

Owing to the peculiar and important re lations which they sustain, their pe culiar organization, and the of- Aees they perform, are subject to many sufferings. Freedom from these contribute in no small degree to their happiness and welfare, for nene can be hap py who arc ill. Not only so, hut no one of these va rions female complaints can long be suffered to run on without involving the general health of the in dividual, and ere long producing permanent sickness and premature decline. N. ris it pleasant to consult a phys'eiao for the relief of [jiuse various delicate af fections, and only upon the most urgent necessity will a true woman so far sacrifice her greatest charm is to do this. The sex will then thank us for placing in their hands simple specifics which will be found tfficaciuus in relieving and curing almost every one of those troublesome complaints peculiar to the sex. HELMBOLD’S EXTRACT BUCHU. HUNDREDS SUFFER ON IN SILENCE, and hundreds of others apply vainly to druggists and doctors, who either merely tantalize them with the hope of a cure or apply remedies which make thefti worse. I would not wish to assert anything that would do injustice to the afflicted, hut I am obliged to say that, although it may he produced from exces sive exhaustion of the powers of life, by laborious em ployment, unwholesome air and food, proluse men struation, the use of tea and coffee, and frequent chi'dbirth, it is far oftener caused by direct irritation, applied to Ihe mucous membrane of the vagina it self. When reviewing the causes of these distressing complaints, it is most poinlul to contemplate the at tendant evils consequent upon them. It is but sim ple justice to the subject to enuraer.'te a few of the many add tional causes which so largely affect thp life, health and happiness of woman in ail classps of society, and which, consequently, affect more or less directly the welfare of the entire human family. Thp mania that exists for precocious education and mar riage, causes the years that nature designed for corpo real development to be was:ed and perverted in the restraints of dress, 1 lie early confinement of school, and especially jo the unhealthy excitement of thp ball-room- Thus, with the body half clothed, and the mind unduly excited by pleasure, perverting jn midnight revel the horns designed by nature for sleep and rest, the work of destruction is half ac complished. An enuseout neo of ty Sys tem, unnecessary effort is required by the delicate vo tary to retain her situation in school at a later day, thus aggravating the evil. When one excitement is over, another in prospective keeps the mind morbidly sensitive to impression, while Ihe now constant re straint of fashionable dresg, absolutely forbldfilng the exercise indispensable to the attainment and reten tion of organic health and strength ; the exposure to night air; the suddea change of temperature; the complete prostrai ion produced by excessive dancing, must, of necessi y, produce their legitimate effect.— At last, an early marriage caps the climax of misery, and the unfortunate one, hitherto so utteily regard less of the plain dictates and remonstrances of her delicate nature, becomes an unwilling subject of medical treatment. This is hut a truthful picture of the experience of thousands of our young women. Long before tbe ability to exercise the functions of the generative organs, they require an education of Ihpir peculiar pervoiis si stem, composed of what ig called the tissue, which is, in common with the fe, male breast and lips, evidently under the control of mental emotions and associations at an early period of life ; and, as we shall subsequently see, these emo tions, when exces.-ive, lead, long before puberty, to habits which sap the very life of their victims ere na ture has self-completed their development.
