Editor» Chronicle St Sentinel:
I notice an address to the people of ,
Georgia by Col. George N. Lester, Home 1
Commissioner of Immigration, in the
Chronicle St Sentinel of June sth, in
which he says that he is prompted by a !
sense of official duty as well as by a sincere
desire to benefit the State and people to
address us in this form. In the month of
March last he had the honor of being elect:
oil Domestic Commissioner under an’ act
of the Genera] Assembly, entitled 11 An act
to encourage Immigration into the State of
Georgia and the investment of capital in
lands." By the second section of the act
it is made’his duty to faithfully devote
himself to the encouragement of the immi
gration of good citizens, laborers, artizans,
mechanics, etc., and to the investment of
capital in lands. By the act which he
quotes and the address he makes, we very
readily sec that the immigration he seeks
as wc) 1 as capital is Home and not Foreign;
then it, must be from the Northern and
New England States. I know nothing of
Col. Lester, as an individual, personally
or politically, or of his electors, nor is it
necessary. I only ask leave to differ with
Col. Lester, as well as many other good
citizens of Georgia, and to give my reasons
for so doing. I think it is time for the
mac -os to speak out, illiterate though they
may be, and while I have all confidence in
the honesty and pure intention of our pub
lic journals and public men as a class, yet
if wc will let our minds go back, compare
our situation now and ten or twenty
years ago, and history gives no account
of any nation or generation that has been
by their enemies so perfectly robbed, trod
den down and placed under the yoke of
tyranny and oppression as we of the pres
ent age, all of which was brought about
by former public journals and leading men,
who were, no doubt, honest in their coun
sel but were mistaken. Then, why may
they may not be mistaken again? There
never was, in my judgment, a people more
at sea than we aro at this hour; the steps we
are now making will be lor our weal or
woe, and may our Great Buler arrest us
lor our good and for the good of future
generations ! Ido not envy Col. Lester in
his position, but for the good of my coun
try, in.my judgment, I would hope that
his efforts might be fruitless. Before the
war we were prosperous and happy; the
result of it was wc lost three-fourths to
four-fifths of our property. With the North
it was a money making business from the
commencement, and with what they made
and what they robbed us of they were all
better off and many twice and three times
as wealthy as when it began, and we are
now bciug made their slaves by being
taxed to death, as it wore, to sustain the
cunency, which is the very bone and
sinew oftheir wealth, This amounts to a
flow of happiness and luxury at the North
while it is mortifying and grinding upon
the rights and pride of Southern foeling,
and yet, in the f ace of all this and much
more that might be said by able minds
our Legislature have elected a home com
missi,mor of immigration to invite good
citizens of the North to come and invest
their capital in lands and other interests,
and settle among us. This may all be right
and best lor us, but let us reason a little :
my plan is to lot them keep what they
have made out of us and make the best of
it, and let us keep what we have left for
ourselves and children and improve upon
it, not put another weapon in their hands
to sink us still deeper in infamy and op
pression. I am aware that I will be looked
upofl as an extremist by some; but stop,
don’t condemn yet, this is a subject that
demands' our most serious reflection. Wo
aro the actors; we are now on the stage,
and we are rapidly getting off and our
children getting on, and whatever condi
tion they find themselves in by our course
they will have to submit to or extricate
themselves as best they can. Then let us
:u:t with patience, wisdom and moderation.
Heaven forbid that wo should sell our
rights for a mess of pottage ! What was
our condition the first of June,lß66? Just
after the war closed we had not, so to speak,
one dollar, our property taken away, and
our money or currency made valueless,
while our good Northern citizens were pro
tected in all their property and currency,
and are having tho profits of our labor now
to sustain the currency that their wealth
abounds in. Don’t we know that without
the aid of our good Northern citizens and
their capital, but with the drag and curso
of their vile emissaries we are five times
as well off as when we commenced about
four years ago? Then allow us four years
more with our present means, giyo us time
to hold another election for Governor by
the native citizens of Georgia (both white
and black if you choose),so that we may,by
tho voice of the people, remove his Expres
selency and put in his nlace an honest, in
telligent, good man. Then if it will please
Colonel Lester let him memorialize the
President, which ho can do with a list of
names mountain high, to cause the military
to remove his Expresselency, with all his
Northern miscreant advonturers back to
l heir nativity and I venture the assertion
we would have one of the most quiet, peace
ful, orderly States,both as to prosperity and
good government., that is now in or out of
the Union. All of this we can do without
the aid of our good Northern citizens or
their capital; and Colonel Lester says in
his address, by way of inducing this immi
gration among us and showing a welcome
to them, that at the suggestion of Colonel
Hulbort (I think Superintendent of our
State Hoad) that our railroads and hotel
keepers had reduced the fair to this class.
This is, to my mind,most astonishing when
we consider that largely of the wealth of
this very people was made through out
downfall, and is, in act and thought, more
humiliating than I can be reconciled to, No
doubt the masses would have no objection
to Colonel Lester inviting foreign immi
grants of honest, good laborers, artisans,
mechanics, &c., and then change his pro
gramme and travel over the counties of
Georgia and lecture the citizens upon the
propriety of forming companies for build
ing up factories and machine shops for
manufacturing and putting up all our
agricultural implements; then convince
our peopje tot the necessity of raising
more grain and meat and less cotton
and we would be tho wealthiest, happiest
and most independent people in world,
all without the aid we are inviting with
so much humiliation. The course being
pursued is a deathblow to the very life
and energy of our own sons and daughters
l have seen various notices of them where
they have been raised in affluence but
since the surrender they have, with a
hearty good will and with great credit to
themselves, gone forth, as becomes their
sex, to the kitchen and dairy, and to
the farms and made things tell to great
advantage; and if our own people will
start all these manufacturing establish
ments our sons and daughters, very many
of them, would go into them and make
themselves useful, by learning the various
mechanic and domestic arts, whereas, if
they were started here by Northern men,
they would stand aloof. There is no use
in being mealy mouthed about this, for it
is a fact not to be doubted. Then why not
go forward in all the improvements cf
every sort within ourselves—hold the gov-’
ernmeut and management of our lands aud
water privileges in our own hands—divide
them with our own children as they grow
ur, and work them with what labor we
have and, it need be.witn laborers of good,
honest foreign immigration, and let them
come and work themselves into an interest
identified with us and thereby make them
selves satisfactorily a part and parcel of
our population, as many have done, and
whom we honor and respect as among our
best citizens ; and, while I express myself
thus, I believe we have some good friends
at the North —men that would have the
shackles taken from our necks and hands
—that would have us be free and inde
pendent as themselves. But why turn
loose our birthright, as it were, for a little
capital, rob our children of the chance of
making themselves the very backbone and
-int wof the country, and placing them,
finally, in a condition that they may be
made the most abject slaves and depend
ents of these very capitalists that we are
now so eager for. Much more may be
written upon this subject, and I hope that
more able minds will take it up. Would
to trod that our people, for the sake of
our rising generation and their future
prosperity, would give this subject that
reflection that it deserves 1 0. T.

Bust in Wheat —Its Cause and Remedy.
THE CAUSE OF RUST.
Mcßean, Georgia, June 22, 1869.
Edit an, Chronicle A Sentinel;
It is frequently stated and, I believe,
generally admitted, by our planters that
the Wheat crop is a very uncertain one in
this section of the State on account of its
liability to take rust. If this be true, then
I think it becomes the duty of each plant
er to investigate the cause of this destruc
tive disease, that we may be able to make
an intelligent and successful prescription
for it. And I bold that it is further the j
duty of any | Enter who has discovered a
remedy,or, through hia investigations, has
procured any light on this subject, to give
remedy or light to his brother planters.
Feeling that I have received some light on
this important subject, and as I know of
no channel through which I could give my
broth r planters more generally this light,
than through your valuable paper, 1 hope
you will excuse me for imposing upon its
columns. It might not only be interesting
but instructive to state how I received this
light. It was my pleasure a few days ago to
meet with one of my intelligent neighbors,
when our conversation led us to communi
cate to each other our recent observations in
the agricultural world, thereby forming us
into a miniature agricultural club, which
wea.c so much in need of, and which I
fear our planters generally do not sufficient
ly appreciate. During-that conversation,
he stated that while working in his gar
den a lew days ago, his attention was
attracted to tho fact, that upon his own
garden walks, where the ground was hard
and compacted, the grass had the
rust, and that over upon his beds, where
the ground had been deeply and thorough
ly pulverized, the grass was luxuriant
and healthy. I went home and found the
same thing existing, not only upon my gar
den walks,but upon all the turn rows in my
fields. Now may we not, from this simple
observation ol his, be directed to the true
cause of rust. The conclusion we came
to or the decision of our small club was,
first, that the remote cause of rust could
; be traced to an impoverished, shallow and
imperfectly prepared soil. Second, that
after the germination of the wheat in such
a soil, it was unable to send its roots
down through the hard and unbrokcD
soil, and was, therefore, compelled
to send out its rcots near the surface. The
result of which is, during wet seasons, the
soil i3 pulverized so shallow that it is
unable to absorb these surplus rains and
give off the accumulated moisture in dry
weather. A shallow soil will become del
uged by a single shower, because the hard
subsoil will not allow it to pass downward.
And again, in the drouth ol mid-Summer
a thin stratum is made dry and parched in
a week, while one of greater depth is
scarcely affected ; and, lastly, the result of
these two opposite extremes upon the
roots of the wheat has the effect of debilita
tiag them and renders them less able to
tumuli the plant with that amount of
nourishment and moisture that it so much
needs during the drouth and which is so
necessary for the perfect development and
maturing of the seed, thereby producing
starvation of the plant, whichiscalled rust.
I trust my brother planters will excuse me
for taking the position that this diagnosis
is wrong, and that rust is not a disease but
simply an evidence or symptom of the
starviog condition of our wheat; and lam
confident that the rust that frequently
visits our cotton plant is but the
effect of starvation. Now, if we
are correct as to cause of rust
(a want of moisture and nutrition), we can
easily find a successful remedy in Mr. Dick
son’s mode of farming, which consists in
deep plowing and high feeding of his
plants, tho result of which 13 shown by his
experience, that he has no evidence of
plant-starvation to rob him of his profits,
which is tho reward for his liberality to
ward his plants. Hoping these few re
marks inay stimulate our planters to
organize Agricultural Glubs, big ones if
they can, or small ones if they cannot do
better, remembering that pecuniary power
is secured by an association of capital, and
we can at least effect the generation of
much agricultural light as the result of an
assoo aliou of ideas. And by carefully com
pounding these, it is possible to produce
some wisdom. E. H.
Agricultural and Horticultural.
W here a large number of hogs are kept,
the best place for them is a good clover
pasture. If not put in until the clover
makes some growth,and then not to feed it
down close, they will do well. In small
enclosures, with plenty of good water,
hogs may he kept cheaper on clover than in
any other waj. .
The Cock’s foot or orchard grass {Dac
tylic glomeratu) is a grass that has many
points and all good., It is the one great
general grass, the points of which one
would aim at as if a model grass were to bo
bred, as wc speak of cattle; and here wo
have it ready at hand.
We are to treat our orchards according
to the soil. It would be the extreme of
folly to run your grass and clover roots in
among the roots of the trees lying near the
surface where an inhospitable hard subsoil
will direct them.
The fact that fowls will eagerly devour
gravel and small pieces of shells and bones,
is known to every one. There can be no
doubt also that it is one in obedience to
some demand of nature, and that it is es
sential to the health and productiveness
and perhaps to the life of the fowl.
Hay should always be cut with all its
juices intait, and before its seed is ripe,
To do this effectually, sweating in cock is
better than too mush exposure to the hot
sun; and if the weather is showery, cloth
caps for the cocks will sometimes pay for
themselves the first season, in the quality
of the hay alone.
W ood ashes vary greatly in the amount
of potash they contain, with the soil on
which the trees have grown, the kind and
part of the trees used, etc., but commonly
average some 8 or 10 per cent., often much
less, and occasionally much more. They
contain many other ingredients, imparting
some additional value.
The greatest difficulty in washing sheep
is contagious diseases, and especially the
foot-rot. This is often taken at public
washing places, and farmers should besure
no diseased sheep have been in the yards
before taking a valuable flock to such places
to wash. It will be much better to prepare
a private washing-place at or near home,
than to have such a flock get the rot. It
often happens after a rain that a small
brook can be easily dammed up so as to
make a good washing place.
Strawberry beds will bear larger fruit
and heavier crops if kept moist in dry
weather. This may be effected by regular
and moderate irrigation, or by copious
watering each evening. Or, on a larger
scale, nearly the same results is attained
by mulching well between the rows with
fine out grass or soit straw chopped about
two inches long.
There are strange plants which are ac
tually kafless, making up for this want by
using the leaves of others. Such plants
are called parasites, becauso they feed on
the uutritive juices of others. Thrusting
their roots into the living tissuos of other
plants, instead of into the earth, they ap
propriate the prepared food of these
plants and at one* apply it for their own
purposes, for the production of stem, flow
er or fruit.
It is now an excellent time to furnish a
permanent form to the heads of young
trees, whether in the nursery row or young
orchards. 11' done in season, the work
may be mainly effected by rubbing off un
necessary young shoots at their first start
ing, or, at most, by cutting them with a
knife, so as to have them equally distri >u
ted and without crossing. Thin out un
necessary shoots on young dwarf pears,
and pinch off long shoots that are taking an
undue lead of the rest.
Strong growing grapevines should be
well attended to ; and unnecessary shoots,
which cause a dense mass of foliage.should
be taken out, so as to leave strong ones at
even distances. Continue to thin fruit on
young trees, where they are likely to over
bear, removing all defective specimens and
leaving the smoothest. Shorten back the
new shoots on tho blackborry, to give them
a handsome form and to increase fruitful
ne.-s._ The conversion of bones on the
return to super-phosphate cannot gener
ally be practiced to advantage, on account
of the difficulty of procuring the acid, its
expense, the labor and experience required,
and the necessity of grinding the bones.
We would recommend cracking or break
ing the bones with a sledge, to as small
pieces as may be conveniently practicable,
and then to place them in alternating lay
ers with fermenting manure in a good size
heap. They will be softened and reduced
in a few weeks, and may be then used for
manuring with the manure into a rich
compost.
Cellars that are infested with insects
should be provided with tables, on which
to keep articles ot food. These tables
ought to be scoured frequently. Upon
them green leaves of sage, or tansy, and
sprigs of southernwood should be laid—
replaced with fresh ones when dry. The
legs of these tables should be set in pans
ot water, to be kept filled through the
Summer; this water and leaves will he the
destruction of red emmets, black ants, and
sometimes larger vermin. Keeping wood
in the • riar often brings insects there.
A company is erectirg a factory for can
ning sweet corn at Farmington. Me., and
the farmers have engaged to plant from
150 to 200 acres. \\ hen it is in a suitable
state, it is to be broken off with husk on
the ear, and hauled to the factory, and
they do the rest, and pay tho raiser 44
cents per can: the cans hold not tar from
a quart, so we are informed. It is expect
ed that an acre will yield enough to be
worth SSO to $75. Ihe company wanted
to start with about 400 acres planted, but
the farmers wish to test the thing before
omitting any other crop.
* Naturalists and fruit men have been
searching tor years to find some birds that
will take hold of the culios. Their search
has not been very successful —unless we
except turkeys, and these have to be fed
with the young larvae in the fallen fruit,
and not with the puncturing beetles. So
long as we look on with our hands in our
pockets, hoping that some other animals
will do the work we should perform our
selves. we may expect failure. For a few
years past, during our own experience in
employing men, we have had trees bend
ing with heavy crops of plums. Before
we employed them, we had scarcely a
dozen good ones in a season, from six
dozen trees.
Farm-yard manure, when the farmer is
one of’right stamp, is the most valuable
ami lasting? it is a genu'me article, and can
be relied on wherever applied, for when, r.s
stated, the right sort of farmer is in pos
session, the cattle live well and the prem
ises are properiv constructed and situated.
Thus in the first place liberal feeding
makes rich dung, and the yard or other re
ceptacle being free from water in sufficient
quantity to wash or drain away any of the
moisture, the whole fertilizing matter is
taken on the land, aDd that is benefited
to the full extent of the abstnactioo by the
crops which have been consumed at the
homestead.
There is no more fruitful source of pre
senting our plants with insects than in
carrying them in the manure, as it is also
the fruitful source of weeds. By Winter
cultivation, the seeds of weeds and insects
are destroyed by birds. There have been
found 1,500 seeds of one of the most mis
chievous of weeds in the gizzard of one of
those creatures. Birds do a great deal
of mischief in some senses : but they are
appointed by nature for the purpose of
keeping down insect life, which, but for
them, would increase to an extraordinary
extent; and with regard to insectivorous
birds, we ought to be extremely cautious
how we permit their destruction. A farm
er’s education should not be considered as
complete until he knew something of the
numerous insects by which he is sur
rounded.
A seed must be a perfect seed in order
to grow a perfect olant. It must be
sound, ripe, and well preserved. This is a
branch wh’ch is greatly neglected. A soil
must be in a i erfect condition to grew a
crop perfectly. Here we are, perhaps,
more greatly at fault than in the other case
of those seed. Both, however, must go
together. We grow “fair” crops, “cr
dinary” crops, even “good" crops, and
think we have a good thing, so far as it
goes ; we even surmise we hare a perfect
thing, not in amount, but quality. Perfect
farming requires perfect work throughout.
It is like perfect feet machinery ; it will do
its work well, and with facility. It will
beat the product of the interrupted time.
It is not the rich soil that gives us the
best grain. It is not the rank crops that
are the best. It is not manure plentifully
applied that makes the largest or the best
growth. All things must be taken to
gether.
Cotton, Seed as a Manure. —A corre
spondent of the Mobile Register writes :
That excellent agricultural monthly, the
Southern Ruralist, for May, contains an
excellent article on the use of cotton seed
as a manure. Although the editor dis
claims any experimental knowledge, he
urges that if the seed be allowed to germi
nate at least 70 per cent, of the manure is
lost, and ends by advising the feeding of
the seed to horned cattle and careful sav
ing of the resulting manure. It also rec
ommends the grinding of the seed to ex
press the oil and the feeding the cake to
cattle. This is sound advice, for- experi
ment will prove that the meal or cake left
from a ton of seed used as manure, will
produce far better effects than a ton of un
ground seed. Seconily. It is well known
that a bushel (46 lbs.) of ground corn is
superior as food to a bushel (56 lbs.) of
corn unground. We can then readily un
derstand that a ton of cotton seed may be
deprived of its oil (carbon chiefly) by
grinding, without losing any of its value as
food. Indeed experience has demonstrat
ed that ground cotton seed is a most ex
cellent article of food for horned cattle. It
is evident, therefore, that proper policy
dictates the grinding of cottou seed, feed
ing the cake to cattle, and Saving the ex
crements. We have not leisure at present
to enter into a statistical calculation of the
value of the cotton seed annually produced
in the State of Alabama, but it is certain
that whenever our planters will save all
that is ra’sed, cause it to be ground, use
tho cake for cattle food and save manure
carefully, an amount of wealth will be
added to the State rivalling that which
tho lint itself produces. Should the cotton
stalks prove, as has been suggested, avail
able for manufacturing into paper. King
Cotton will indeed prove itself entitle 1 tq
be so denominated. We commend the re
marks of the Southern Ruralist to the se
rious consideration of our intelligent plant
ers. Ex-Farmer.
Upon this, Col. Langdon, Agricultural
editor of the Register , remarks :—Our
correspondent broaches a subject of great
practical interest to the agriculturists of the
South. Our own conviction is, that cot
ton seed meal, at the price at which it can
be furnished, is the cheapest and most
valuable fertilizer that can be applied to
the cotton lands of the . South. And
further, there is no doubt that the meal,
after the oil has been expressed, is far
more valuable as a fertilizer than the un
ground seed, no matter in what form they
may be applied. We proppse to enlarge
on this subject hereafter.
Bee Food. —Take four pounds of good
coffee sugar, add four pounds boiling
water, boil until one pound is evaporated
and skimmed off, thus making seven
pounds, or about five pints. This is suffi
cient to feed one colony for forty days, if
given half a gill each day, and is equiva
lent to as many pounds of honey for feed
ing. Bees tnay be wintered on this kind
of syrup without any honey, for which
purpose twenty pounds of sugar should
be made into thirty-fivo pounds of syrup
and given to them in October to be stored
away like honey— Southern Farmer.
French Polish for Boots , Shoes and
Harness. —Mix together one quart of vine
gar and one pint of soft water; stir into it
a quarter of a pound of glue finely broken
up, half a pound of log-wood chips, a
quarter of an ounce of finely powdered
indigo, a quarter of an ounce of soft soap
(about a teaspoonful) and a quarter of an
ounce of isinglass. Boil the mixture over
the fire for ten minutes or more. Then
strain the liquid, bottle and cork. Apply
with a sponge, first cleaning the articles to
be polished. Should you find it too thick,
hold it near the fire to warm it a little,
and the heat will liquify it very quickly.
Wash for Fruit Trees. Last year an ex
perienced fruit grower, the owner of a fine
orchard near Niagara River, Western
New York, wrote us that, in the care of
his trees he bad practiced one simple
method with eminent success. He takes
lye from leached ashes, mixes a little
grease with it, heats quite warm, and,
with a syringe, throws it up into all parts
of the trees, branches and trunk. It will
effectually kill all kinds of caterpillars, and
ail kinds of worm- that are either infesting
the trees in nests or running over the baik.
Trees treated in this manner were exceed
ingly healthy, beautiful and vigorous in
appearance, possessing a smooth, glossy
bark and boro tho best applesin the country.
The remedy is easy and cheap.—Horticul
turist.
Cotton Seed Meal, and Cotton Seed.—
Chemical analysis shows that cotton seed
meal is one of the richest toods now availa
ble for farm stock, while its price is rela
tively lower than that of any other. After
considerable experience in its use with
milch oows and other animals, we aro pre
pared to say that its effect in feeding seems
fully to sustain the indications of the ana’y
sis. It is not well to feed it very largely;
aud there are authenticated instances of its
having speedily produced death when given
to young calves and young lambs, although
sucking colts, eating from the lambs’
troughs in the fields, have not been injur
ed. It is almost always necessary to teach
cattle to oat it, by at first mixing a small
quantity of iL with other meal. Its effect
ou the value of manure is very great, proba
bly even better than th .t of linseed meal or
rape cake. A neighbor of ours used it last
Spring as a manure in the hill for corn
with excellent results. He considered the
application profitable, and proposes to re
peat it during the coming season. Aa
Arkansas planter recently informed us that
he regarded a bushel of hulled cotton seed
as equal in value to two bushels of corn in
fattening hogs. The hulled seed, from
which the oil has not been expressed, must
be fed even more cautiously than the meal
which is deprived of the greater share of
its soil. — American Agriculturist.
To Glean Paint.— -There is a very sim
ple method to clean most any kind of paint
that has become dirty, and if onr house
wives should adopt it, it would save them
a great deal of trouble. Provide a plate,
with some of the best whiting to be had.
and have ready some clean warm water,
and a piece of flannel, which dip into the
water, and squeeze nearly dry ; then take
as much whiting as will adhere to it; ap
ply it to the painted surface, when a little
rubbing will instantly remove any dirt or
grease. After which, wash the part well
with clean water, rubbing it dry with a
soft chamois. Paint thus cleaned looks
as well as when first laid on, without any
injury to the most delieate colors. It is
far better than using soap, and does not
require more than half the time and libor.
An Extraordinary Case—A Mouse
in a Child's Stomach.—For a week past
the daughter of Mr. Walshaucr, aged
about three years, and residing at the cor
ner of Spain and Greatman streets, com
plained of an itching ache in the stomach,
which she attributed to her parents, as
being caused by ants. This irritation last
ed from that time until half-past seven
o’clock Thursday night, when she was
worse. The father of the child, supposing
that worms was the cause of her illness,
administered a worm powder. About mid
nigbt she was taken seriously ill. accom
panied by a choking sensation, and it was
feared she would die from the effects, when
she suddenly vomited, throwing up. among
other matter, a live mouse, about an inch
and a half long, not including the tail,
which was near the same length. As soon
as the young girl was relieved of the ani
mal, she immediately exclaimed to her
anxious parents, “Oh, mother, look, that
is the thing that has been troubling me so
much." When we saw the child. Friday
morning, she was as well as could be, and
romping about the streets as happy as a
"gay sunflower.” The mouse which was
so mysteriously lodged in the child’s
stomach, was captured by Mr. Albert
Weilbacher, the druggist, corner of Spain
and Greatrrian streets, and preserved in
alcohol, where the curious, as well as skep
tical, can examine it at their leisure. How,
when and where the animal found its way
down her throat, and how it maintained
life, is a matter of conjecture. —Sew York

OIK TRAVKLLIX6 COBRESPOXDESCE.
On the Wing, June 17th, 1869.
Editors Chronicle A Sentinel:
The adjourned term of the Oglethorpe
Superior Court met on the 14th instant.
This Court was called by Lis Honor Judge
Andrews, in response to the request of the
citizens, to save the county from the ex
pense of a delay until its next regular ses
sion. The case for trial was one of the
most flagrant and diabolical in the annals
of crime; and, for villainous lust and fiend
ish brutality, I doubt if it has a parallel.
It seems that about twelve miles from
Lexington lived a poor widow womaD, with
one child, a daughter, about stventeen
years old, and in the community lived a
negro man by the name of. George Long,
who had, at some time previous, been dis
charged from jail for stealing meat, and
was a noted bad character. By various
cunning devices (acts of kindness one way
and another), he managed to gain the con
fidence and res iect of Mrs. Gray and her
daughter. He frequently visited the
house; got Mary Gray, the daughter, to
work for him, paying her in a manner
doubtless very agreeable to one in as indi
gent circumstances as she seemed to be,
making her presents, which she regarded
as acts of pure kindness, though the motive
was as deep and as black as perdition itself.
ihe mother goes off from home some
two or three miles on business, leaving the
daughter alone, as perhaps she had done
before, and on her return the daughter
was missing; the alarm was given, neigh
bors were soon on the ground, and on
search found her about one or two hun
dred yards from the house in a thicket,
with a pistol shot in her forehead, and ner
skull broken (perhaps by the same
weapon), for about two inches, and other
marks of violence about her persoD, which
were evident indications of an effort to
commit rape, which he did not succeed in
doing until he had murdered her. On
subjecting the body to a post mortem ex
amination the physicians were of the opin
ion that she was murdered and then raped.
1 doubt whether the criminal records of
the cruel and barbarous race from which
this infamous demon uescended, can fur
nish a ciirne which, in all its developments,
would be-darker, more fiendish and re
volting to contemplate.
The evidence of his guilt was circum
stantial, but well connected and strong and
conclusive. Twenty-five witnesses, white
and black, were examined for the State,
and the testimony of every one pointed to
this negro as the perpetrator of the deed.
An alibi was set up by the counsel for the
defence, but not could not be sustained.
An effort was then made to fasten the
crime on another party, which was also a
failure.
Great excitement and a just indignation
pervaded the minds of the large crowd of
citizens in attendance, but no disposition
to avenge the outrage, only by an appeal
to civil authority.
Messrs. Mathews and Johnson were for
the prosecution, and Messrs. Reid and
Shackelford for the defence, and I have
rarely witnessed the display of greater
legal ability in any case. The jury were
out about an hour and returned with a
verdict of guilty, and, owing to the evidence
all being ciicumstaniial, tho punishment
was commuted from the gallows to life
time imprisonment in the Penitentiary,
with the understanding that, in the event
of certain developments of testimony, he
should be recommitted to trial, and dealt
with accordingly. Such an atrocious and
fiendish crime was something new to the
people of Oglethorpe county, but may be
expected wherever savage lust, without the
fear of speedy and terrible retribution, is
loose in the country.
The suggestion of his honor Judge
Andrews that wherever a crime is commit
ted every citizen in tho community should
turn out and diligently assist in its investi
gation, was very appropriate and should
be adhered to.
And I think, further, that there ought to
be a good pack of track dogs in every
neighborhood, which would not only deter
but render invaluable service in the appre
hension of evil-doers. With such assistance
the testimony in this case would have been
positive.
The crops in Oglethorpe county are in
good condition. Wheat has been harvest
ed and the yie- and better than for several
years. Corn has recently been blgssed
with refreshing showers, and looks green
and flourishing. Cotton has been much
retarded by the cold spells and is quite
backward bur, improving, and the hope
entertained that at least as much will be
made tho present as the past year. It is
thought impossible to make any more,
notwithstanding the quantity of fertilizers
used, from'the fact that there is at least
one-fourth- less hands employed the pres
ent than the past year. The advantages
resulting from the fertilizers may make up
for the deficiency in hands, but it will be
about as much. I find that the number
of field laborers everywhere is gradually
diminishing [ suppose this results from
the laws of nature, the drains upon the
country by railroad* and the indisposition
of others to work. 13y the way, you have
a host of boys strolling your streets in idle
ness that might reader valuable service to
the farms of the country.
They are always on hand at the Depot,
'and the hotels, to convey your satchel,
travelling bag, &c., for twenty-five cents,
ten cents, five cents, or any sum you may
give them. Ido not believe in patronizing
any such institutions. I think it is doing
injustice to the planting interests of the
country, besides encouraging a species of
vagabondism that will be the future curse
of society. The query is already rife in
thoughtful minds as to what is to become
of the risin B generation of negroes? With
out property, or anything to sustain them
in habits of idleness, they must necessarily
augment the list of the violators of law
and disturbers of the public peace.
Nothing more surely indicates prosperi
ty and happiness to the white people than
their increasing habits of industry, and no
country shares more largely this element
of strength and greatness than Oglethorpe.
Old men, whose fortunes were swept away
by the revolution, have deft their coats,
i rolled up their sleeves, and gone to work.
| And when I look upon their open, free and
J honest faces, and consider the wrongs they
j have suffered, and the heroic spirit they
now exhibit, 1 no less admire the noble
I sire than his victim of the “Lost Cause.”
• My sojourn at Lexington was, as usual,
pleasant and agreeable. Here I met with
our old friend and former local agent in
Monroe, Doctor Thomas. I believe he has
given up entirely the medical profession
j for the practice of den.istry, in which, I
j learn, ho is very successful, and his work
. highly satisfactory. Mr. Rowe and bis
i excellent family were kind and attentive
| to their guests, bountiful in their table
| supplies and every other desirable accom
-1 modation. Those who may visit the town
on business will find this a good house.

I The Augusta & Hartwell Railroad
j Company.—ld the Cincinnati Gazette of
i last Saturday we find a letter from Hon.
R. Casey, of Columbia county, President
, of the Augusta & Hartwell Railroad Com
; pany, addressed to the Mayor of Cincin
nati. asking that city to grant assistance to
his road to the extent of five thousand
dollars per mile. As the subject is one of
interest to the citizens of Augusta and to
the people residing in the counties through
which tiiis road will pass, in all of which
the Chronicle & Sentinel has an exten
sive circulation, we publish the letter entire
—at the same time indulging the hope that
the city of Cincinnati will have wisdom
enough to see the advantages to be de
rived by .hat place from the early com
pletion of this important railway and grant
to the enterprise that assistance which is
asked of it by the President of the com
pany :
“Columbia, June 14.
“7b His Honor Mayor Torrence :
“Sir —My letter of May 22d was direct- ;
ed to you from Augusta; I write this from :
Columbia. Allow me to call your atten
tion, and that of the Honorable Council
oyer which you preside, again to the sub
ject of the railroad connection which is j
proposed to be made between Augusta and
Clayton, Georgia. While this road is in- j
tended to develope the minieg and agricul
tural resources of North Georgia ams give
to the people along the line of its travel a
rail communication with their market
town, it is also the design, by connecting
with the Blue Ridge at Clayton, to “open
up” more intimate communications with
the great West. Permit me to assure you
that it was with no small degree of pleas
ure I hailed the announcement of your
wise and far-sfecing policy, as indicated in
your determination to build a Grand
Trunk road connecting your city with [the
South. The policy was wise in its incep
tion, and it requires not a prophet’s vision
to see fruit to your eity one hundred fold
as the result. It is true, there is already
a communication between your city and the
South Atlantic seaboard, but it is tortuous,
lengthy, and attended with stoppages and
delays, numerous and tedious. Joining
yon in this common wish to link the South
and West together in a bond of reciprocal
trade and mutual interest, I wrote you as
I did, inviting your co-operation with the
Augusta & Hartwell Railroad Company in
their enterprise. In that I did not go in
to specifications, but simply gave you an
outline of some of the advantages that
would accrue from the construction of this
short route to Clayton.
“In reply to that letter I received a copy
of the Cincinnati Commercial —publishing
it—with a short comment by the editor.
A mere glance at the map is sufficient to
show the nearest route from your city to
Augusta is on the line indicated by the
Augusta & Hartwell I’Anoany.
“It is not only nearer, but its relative
claims in this respect, I might say, is a
straight line in comparison to the arc of a
circle. Now. as to figures to prove the
correctness of this opinion or declaration.
The termini I shall assume, to be Cincin
nati and Port Royal. It is, I presume,
known to you that arrangements are now
definitely made to complete at an early day
the Port Royal Railroad, thus putting Au
gusta in connection with the Atlantic by a
road ot only one hundred and ten miles.
"By reference to maps and published
statements of distanees,we find that reach
ing out your iron arms via Chattanooga,
the State spad and Georgia Railroad, that
you have to travel a distance of 776 miles
to reach Port Royal, South Carolina, which
is regarded as the best harbor on the South
Atlantic border, whilst by the Knoxville
route via Raburn Gap and the contemplated
Augusta & Hartwell Road, the distance is
650 miles, a saving of 14 miles. Is not
this an item, hot only in the way of cost of
construction, but in time of travel? Again,
by the Knoxville route you have some hun
dred miles less of road to build to tap the
great Southern roads, than by going to
Chattanooga. . Reaching Augusta you are
there in railroad communication with
Charleston and Savannah. Do not these
figures and results commend the enterprise
of the Augusta & Hartwell Railroad to
your favorable consideration ? If this
communication does not reach you before
you shall have taken final action as to the
route to be taken, or in case you cannot
reconsider your vote,l have then one other
proposition to make to you.
“Will you become a stockholder in our
road? I will ask but a small moiety of
the $10,000,000 your generosity has 70ted
to this desirable end, that of linking the
West and South together. If you will
give to our company $5,000 per mile, I
think 1 can safely say that will insure its
completion, The distance from Augusta
to Clayton is only about 150 miles. The
Directory will meet in Augusta on the
third Tuesday in July, and I should like
to hear from you before that time,or, what
would be still more desirable, would be
pleased to have your city re iresented iu
that meeting in the person of its honorable
Mayor or his authorized agent. With re
spect, I am, sir, yours,
“H. R. Casey,
“President of the Augusta & Hartwell
Railroad Company.”
Useful Information.—The Peters
burg (Va.) Index has learned, in a con
versation with an old gentleman of that
city, that for several years past he had
kept his house free from cockroaches and
other vermin, by the use of Epsom Salts.
Scattered freely through the holes which
they enter, these ugly visitants will seek
other homes, and assures us also that a
strong solution of Salts, applied external
ly tohorses,will saye them from annoyance
by flies; and that where mirrors, picture
frames, &c, have been rubbed with the
solution, the flies will refuse to light.
Asa preventive against bed-bugs or
fleas, the same remedy will be found of
great service; but a more effectual one is
the recently discovered carbolic aeid or
carbolic soap. Animals washed with this
solution will he forever free from insects.
Perpetual freedom from rats and mice
may also be obtained by the use of this car
bolic aeid or soap; but as this is not always
at hand, our old friend assures us that
kerosene oil poured into ratholes, or rags
saturated with kerosene, will banish rats
and mice effectually.
He has used these antidotes for years,
and is fully convinced of their value. They
are, at least, simple and cheap, and may
be tried.

NATURE’S REMEDY FOR CHRONIC
DISEASES!
Medical Properties and.Uses of the Water.
This water combines in a remarkable
degre those properties which render it a
remedial agent of peculiar, perhaps of un
equal value for the eradication of disease
aud the restoration ofhealth.
The extraordinary cures which have
been made by it in many Chronic Diseases,
and in some cases which seemed almost
hopeless, justly entitle jt to rank with the
most famous Mineral SpriDgs of Virginia
and the world. Indeed there is strong
reason to believe that in many of the most
serious, unmanageable and widely pre
vailing diseases thatafllict the human race,
the Cold Sulphur Water is not only the
most safe, mild and pleasant, but also the
most certain and effectual remedy yet dis
covered.
Under its benign, revolutionizing and
renovating influences, many chronic mala
dies vanish like the mist of the morning
under the unclouded rays of the sun ; the
ruddy glow of health revisits pallid cheeks
to, which it had become a strauger; iu many
cases animation, elasticity, energy and
buoyancy supersede the bodily languor,
debility, irritation and disease which had
long reigned supreme in the system, and
cheerful spirits, the natural companions of
vigorous health, take the place of that
gloomy and melancholy condition of the
mind which is the legitimate oflspring of
physical suffering.
This water presents the rare combina
tion of Aperient, Diuretic, Diaphoretic,
Alterative, Tonic and Eutrophio proper
ties. Acting freely upon the Bowels, Liv
er, Kidneys and Skin, it thoroughly
purifies the blood, and eliminates from the
system the essential elements of disease ;
while by its powerful Tonic and Eutrophic
action it invigorates the stomach; enriches
the vital fluid ; gives tone and energy to
the muscles and nerves; renovates the
entire organism, and re-establishes health
and strength.
In Dyspepsia, Liver Disease, Bilious
Complaints,. Costiveness, and General De
bility, it is a remedy of unsurpassed util) -
ty aud power.
Especially upon the STOMACH its in
fluence is prompt, decided and highly
beneficial. It speedily relieves heart
burn, increases the appetite and promotes
digestion, so that as a general rule persons
using it can eat with impunity, and that
all-important organ which supplies
strength and nutriment to tho whole sys
tem i« soon restored tc a strictly normal
condition.
Being an efficient Aperient and laxative,
it causes a regular and healthy action of
the bowels, and is a most admirable
remedy in cases of habitual constipation.
As an anti-bilious remedy it is unsur
passed.
Over the functions of the LIY’ERit ex
ercises the most powerful and salutary
control. If the bile be deficient in quanti
ty, it acts as a direct stimulus to the Liver,
aud surely though gradually forces the se
cretion up to a healthy standard. And
whether the liver be torpid and obstruct
■ed as in jaundice, or in an excited and ir
; ritated condition, discharging an excess of
| vitiated bile, thejudicious use of this wa
ter is equally efficacious in unloading the
! viscusand ri storing the secretions to a
| healthy slate.
Being.not only a tree and powerful, but
mild and soothing DIURETIC, this water
exerts a decided, sedative and calmative
influence over the Urinary Organs ; and
has been pre-eminently successful in cases
of Inflammation, Irritation and Debility of
the Kidneys, Bladder and Urethra. Asa
remedy in such maladies it has no supe
rior.
In some Diseases Peculiar to Females
it is highly beneficial. Chlorosis and
Leucoiriicea will be readily cured by the
Sulphur and Chalybeate waters here.
Amenorrhcea and jfysmenorrhoee—when
purely functional diseases, and uncompli
cated by organic or structural derange
ment—wil! yield to the same means.
Cases of Erysipelas, Rheumatism and
Cutaneous Eruptions have been cured by
the Cold Sulphur Water. Asthma, Chronic
Bronchitis and Chronic Pneumonia will
4 ither receive much relief and mitigation
irom its use, or be entirely cured by it.
• Various Chronic functional derangements
of the Heart, the Brain, and the Lungs,
and some forms of Neuralgia, Gout and
Scrofula are, in fact, sympathetic or sec
ondary diseases, and have their prime
cause or origin in, and are kept alive by. a
deranged, enfeebled and irritable condi
tion of the stomach and alimentary canal.
In such cases the Cold Sulphur Water, by
virtue of its unequalled curative and res
torative powers iu diseases of the Diges
tive Organs, is the appropriate remedy.
The great Alterative, Tonic, and Eu
trophic properties of this water are clearly
shown by the marked improvement ot the
general health, and the increase of flesh
and strength which generally tollow its
use.
In many cases so speedy and thorough
is its curative agency, that in the lan
guage of* distinguished physician, who
had himself seen its effects, "No one but
an eve-witness would believe in the
marvellously rapid change to a‘ normal
condition or"that of health.”
Some of the ctires which have been
made by it are of the most extraordinary
character. Cases which were apparently
of the most hopeless nature, for the relief
of which not only all the resources of
medical skill but the most celebrated Min
eral Springs of Virginia had been used in
vain, have been entirely and permanently
cured by the Cold Sulphur Water.
CHALYBEATE SPRING
Besides the Sulphur Water, there is
upon the premises a fine Chalybeate
Spring, which possesses the well-known
virtues of waters of its class.

Amelia Cos., Va., Oct. 27, 1868.
S. Goode, Esq. Dear Sir :In the Summer of 1851 7
discovered an insidi us pproach of Dyspept c bymptem*
ot a Dysenteric character (then epidemically prevailin'
in E Va.,) whicu linal y in my case resulted in an un
questionable ulceration of the bwer portion of the colon,
with a gen ral subacute irritation of the smalu r intes
tines. Th j u ceration continue i for more than six months
in a very aggravated form, when in august, 1852, I visit
ed the celebrated curative wa ers of the Rocxbridge
Alum, and after using that water tifteen or twenty days I
was not materially improved, thinking it rather stimu
lating at that time. I left the Springs, but continue Ito
travel in the mountains by Lrivate conveyance until 1
could venture home, where 1 remained in a feeb e condi
tion. In 1854, I returned by private means to the moun
tains, trav l ing and amusing myself by hunting, fishing,
&,c. In 1855, ’sd and ’57, I found nomaiked improvement
in my disease. In June 1858 1 was seiiously and suddenly
at tacked in a more aggrava ed form, wlieu 1 returned to
giv- the Rockbridge Alum another trial, and after a stay
ol several weeks 1 was much improved. Durmg my visit
1 took-n my c arriage a party of friends to the Goid S .1-
phur (which was then in an embryo state of improve
ment), 1 was at once favorably impi eased with the water.
I next visited the Rocfibridge Baths, where I remained a
month and was, I must say, decidedly bonefitted, but
only temporari y. As again in the se&son of 1859 my
gene r al condition was becoming more serious by an ob- ‘
stinate c stive condition of the bowels, with a co: sider
able thickening of the mucous membrani of the colon,
and by two physicians wub pronounced tun orous This
season 1 visited the Warren Springs, and from thence to
Hot Springs, using fir t the boiler for a orpidi liver and
Rlunmatism of the spine. I was by this treatment im
proved as far as the Rheumatic Sympioms were involved,
but no effect on the obstinate Liver, for in 1360 I was so
reduced in flesh and by continued constipation my nerv
ous system was so shatter.d, that it totally disqnalitiedme
for any kind of business, suffering from acid stomach,
nervous debility,palpitation of the heart, with such obsti
nate torpidity of tiie liver and bowds, Ac., a* to compel
the use of wjoden bougies, under a rigid contction of
the spliinctor muscle, iu o zder to pass away y fecul
discharge from the bowels. In August, 1860, in this co i.
dition I visited the Col.l Suiphur Springs, wh re I re
mained a month, and from the constanr use of the water
(and bath occasionally,) I was relieved of acid stomach,
constipation, nervous debility, p Ipilation of the heart and
cod skin. My fe. hie pulse of fifty-four beats to the minute
was res ore j to seventy-five, ausua ly healthy standard,
with a good appetite, no headache, and what is very
agreeable after more rba Li e years cf miserable utrv
ousness, I was e abb and to sl.-ep wen and have continued
to e-ioy b* h eating and sleepi. g web, and have been in
