PUJ.i)A V MORNiNO, DEC. 11,1808
[From the Richmond Whig.
The Hog—His. Faults, Virtues and Claims.
ling killing time always comes before
Christmas. Farmers and housekeepers are
now preparing lor it. In Virginia we have
not, since the war, raised as insn.V as we
were accustomed to raise itef’ore the war,
but lie is a poor farmer and a bad provider
who has not some'to kill. In the next fort
night many thousands will be killed, scald
ed, scraped, cut up, salted, and hung up in
the well locked smokehouses to lie cured.
Virginia cured bacon is lamed for its in
comparable excellence. Our only tear is
that {.here will not be it.
May we not be allowed, in view of the
approaching season, to say something in
favor of that, much abused, but useful and i
valuable animal, the hog!
The hog plays an important part in com- i
merce, agriculture and domestic economy- i
He is a sort of citizen of the world. lie i
thrives and multiplies in every part of the i
globe except the Polar regions. The j
l'arnili&r burlesque of the “hog on ice,” is
enough of itself to demonstrate the un
suitableness of those regions to the hog.
With this exceplion he can prosper every
where. He is in his übiquity like the her
ring, which is found in all waters. He does
not rank high in the social scale, being
considered, indeed, less of a gentleman in
his habits than any of the animals. Juke
the elephant, the rhinoceros and the hippo
potamus, lie is addicted to wallowing in the
mire. Naturalists tell us that he does this
to destroy vermin, and to protect himself
from tlie hites and stings of insects. This
lias been his habit from the earliest times,
and will remain such as long as he con
ti lines on earth. “The sow that was washed
returned to her wallowing in the mire.”
There is no reformation for him in this
particular. Another of his peculiarities is
nis grunt. Another is that he carries straw
in his mouth when it is about to rain. The
hog has played an important part in re
ligion, having been placed under the ban of
two great religious sects—the Jews and
Moslems. Tncir lawgivers and priests
prohibited his flesh as an article of food.
Three two religions had their origin in the
hot climates of the East, where swine’s
flesh was found to be unwholesome, and its
prohibition was a sanitary measure.
There are. wild hogs as there are wild
horses and dogs. The historic wild boar,
the peccary and the African ground hog
are some of the varieties. How anil by
whom the hog was first domesticated, we'
leave to the more curious to inquire. The
hog finds his Paradise in Ireland, where he
is tenderly adopted into the social circle.—
Every tenant raises a hog as lie raises his
children, and with that hog lie pays his
taxes. The Romans vadied the hog, and
with all his unclean ness lie was reckoned
the fittest sacrifice to Ceres, the Goddess of
the harvest. * 4
We read that Mr. llo# was introduced
from Spain into Hispaniola by Columbus,
in 14SC5; into Florida by Dc Soto, in 1538 ;
into Nova Scotia and New Foundiaud in
155;} ; into .Canada in 1(508, and into Virginia
in 160(5. It is related that here they multi
plied so vapidly that the colonists were
compelled to palisade Jamestown to keep
them out. Different breeds are preferred in
different localities according to the fancy of
the farmer, facilities for raising, or the par
ticular object of the raiser. The following
are some of the varieties that have by turns
been in most favor: the Chinese, the Nea
politan, (the most celebrated of the Italian
breeds,) the Irish grazier, the Berkshire, the
Cheshire, the Essex, the Woburn or Bedford
breed, sent to General Washington by the
Duke of Bedford, (being a cross between the
Chinese boar and the large English hog,)
the Middlesex, the Chester, the Hampshire
and the Suffolk, which last originated from
the old Suffolk crossed with the Chinese
and Berkshire. Without entering at lengtli*
into the discussion as to the best breeds, wo
may say that there are hogs that seem to
be capable of taxing on more fat than
others. After all said, written and done,
the cam laced hog that Is supplied from the
time he cau crack corn to the time he falls
under the knife, with as much corn as he
cau consume, is the best of all. There is a
wonderful correlation between the hog and
Indian corn. We shall not undertake to
describe the old fashioned, unimproved Vir
ginia porker which, having beep left to
roam at large aud scuffle for Itself, con
tracted a shape so strangely ludicrous and
habits so wild, queer and perverse, as to be
ajuotable curiosity. If we remember aright,
2ri-UJcdUfl Constitutionalist.
this eccentric variety has been described at
length by “ Moses Addurns,” in his learned
lecture on “ Bacon and,Greeus.” We take
occasion here to say, that if in aught we
have said, or further say, we should tres
pass upon the demesnes of that favorite
author, it will’be unwittingly done.
The fecundity of the hog family is one of
the marvels of nature. That animal is
capable of procreation at the early age of
oue year, an age at which the human in
fant can scarcely crawl, is without teeth,
and is unable to express itself, and when
the calf and the colt are still sustained by
the mother. Mrs. Hog produces eight to
twelve, and even more at a birth, and that
twice a year. Vauban estimates the pro
duct of a single sow, with ouly six young
at a time, in ten generations, to be about
six millions five hundred thousand, from
which he deducts five hundred thousand on
account of accidental death. The ease
with which the hog is raised, his omnivor
ous appetite aud his industry aud self-reli
ance make him the cheapest of all animals
to keep, To the poor, he is, Indeed, a pre
cious boon. To “ increase and multiply,”
seems to be regarded by tiie liog as his first
duty.
The whole number of hogs in the United
States, in 1856, was put at forty millions,
abont a hog and a half for every man,
woman aud child of the then population.
Valued at $7 per head, the aggregate value
would be $280,000,000. What a country
this for hogs and Indian corn! With them
it will be easy to ward off starvation.
There is no part of the hog that cannot
lie utilized. His flesh, fat, bristles, hair,
hoofs and bones are all turned to account.
His very entrails are eaten. The divisions
into which his body are cut are as well
known as the divisibns of the earth—hams,
shoulders, middlings, jowls. His ears and
feet are made into souse, and his brains are
made a choice dish lor the epicure. His
tail has for ages been claimed by succes
sive generations of'children as tlieir pe
culiar property. Tradition points out the
way of cooking it—roasting on the coals—
aud of eating it without salt, and held in
the fingers. Spare-ribs and chine! Is
there a man with a heart in his bosom and
teeth in fils head who does not delight in
them ?
Some call the hog stupid. Stupid, in
deed ! His intelligence is of a : igli order,
and his instincts are as sharp as—wel M a
razor or a briar, or a steel trap. His cour
age, when he gets his bristles up, and
chooses to use his tusks, make him the
terror of both men and dogs. He knows “a
hawk from a handsaw,” and can tell his
feeding time as well as if lie carried a clock
in his body. He is an early riser, and the
familiar “c-h-o-a-r-k, c-h-o-a-r-k ” of his
feeder just at the peep o’ day never fails to
be answered. He never misses roll-cali,
though he eanuot be called a soldier. A
“hog in armor” is said to be the most
ridiculous of all tilings. His sagacity in
determining latitudes exceeds that of the
most scientific men.
What would mankind do without the
hog? He supplies food to millions. Those
who are too distant from market to sell
their grain and truck products feed them
to the hogs, and then sell the hogs, thus
killing two birds with one stone. Bread is
called “the staff of life,” the hog is life it
self. The beauty iu her silks aud satins
may turn from him in disgust as he emerges
from his sty all recking with mire, but she
eats him, and enjoys him, too, when he ap
pears on the table. As has been observed
by those accustomed to eater for the public,
that the favorite diet of ladies generally,
however delicate and dainty, is shoal.
The hog is a mighty institution —a power
in the land. In spite of his snout, of his
bristles, of his grunt, of his foul habits and
his perverse ways, the hog deserves to be
nTrrrrm mgn esreem ; to ne Treamr-k+nmy
while living, and to be killed gently, and
with as little pain as jiossible, when his
time comes. The time of many is at baud.

[From tho Macon Telegraph.
Wltat is tho Possible Product of an "ere of
Cotton ?
Upon this question we append some figures
furnished by a planter:
If cottou is planted live feet apart, each way,
two stalks in the hill, in one acre there wiil lie
ii,200 stalks. If each stalk produces
50 bolls the yield per .acre will be % bale.
100 do do do IJ* “
200 do do do 3 “
300 "» do do do 4% “
400 do do do “
500 do do do 8 “
If planted eight feet apart, each way, two
stalks in the hill, in one acre there will be 1,356
stalks. If each stalk produces
50 bolls the vield per acre will be % bale.
100 do do do % “
2(H) do do do “
300 do do do 2 “
400 do do do 2% “
500 do do do MX “
The foregoing is calculated on the rule of a
hundred bolls to the pound, but a good quality
of cotton and a iuxurinut growth will average
tar above that. Now, of course, when tlie
writer talks of three, tour and five hundred
bolls to the stalk, lie is speaking of transplant
ed cotton, with the calculation that it will be
gin to mature early in June, aud continue to
produce till iro.st —say, in this latitude, five,
and a half mouths of actual production.
Who will undertake to say how many boll3
of cotton a luxuriant stalk will produce with
such opportunities ? All we can say is that we
saw cotton stalks last Fall, seeded in April,
which we have no doubt produced three hun
dred matured bolls to the Stalk, and these
stalks sown in the usual way—say rows five
feet apart and plants about fifteen or.twenty
inches apart in the row.
Some people sneer at brag acre crops, but
they are properly sneered at only when the
laws ol a sound and enlightened economy are
violated. If a man should expend on one acre
Hie outlay of labor and money which is usual
to apply to five, and shall produce a better yield
than on the five, is his acre to he sneered at?
On the contrary, has he not practiced a sound
economy—has he not saved the fencing and
the exhaustion of four acres—more than one
half the labor of gathering his crop—and is
not his well-cultivated and fertilized acre in
better condition for the next crop ?
In our judgment it will be a long lime before
we have any brag acres in George, well han
dled, which will not he the most economical
acres on the plantation ! Let the planter con
sider this proposition: If! am now producing
at the Tate of one bale to three or four aeres,
what can I afford to invest upon a single acre
in order to produce that bale upon it ? What
is it worth to fence, break np, cultivate and
gather the corn from these two or three extra
acres ? Planters and negroes in grassy times
think it is worth a great deal to keep that much
land clean of grass—hut whatever it is worth
to do all these things, the planter can certainly
afford to expend upon a single acre if he can
thereby realize the same product from it.
We believe tbetrue economy of planting lies
in fertilizing and thorough tilling.
