[communicated.] Hold on to Your Lantu—lt’s all Yonfre Cot Left. 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. 1 COMMUNICATED.] 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 limes, June. 12. 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.

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. MARRIED, By the Rev. W. B.

THE TRUE FOUNTAIN OF HE ALTH! The Cold Sulphur Springs, Va., TWO miles,from the Goshen Depot of Chesapeake * Ohio Railroad; 34 miles West of Staunton ; 00 miles from the Greenbrier White Sulphur Springs, and within a.n easy day’s journey of Bal timore, Md,, Washington, D. C., and Richmond aud Lynchburg, Virginia, 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. LOCATION, CLIMATE, <kc.

DETuNVILLE, 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 g>od n-al'h and finespiri s eversi_.ee.
