Tlio Atlanta Herald publinheB id full tlio report of Dr. E. M. Pendleton, wbicb bo delivered os an ad iresn liofore the late Agricultural Convention in thiioity. Ilr. l’cudlelon is Professor of Agriculture in 1 the State Colloge connected with the Uui- deemalile in coin and oonvertablo into | versity of Georgia, and to hie use the bonds, and free banking to any one giving Trustees appropriated an experimental farm of ten and a half acres. I ho results _ -g t I which ho Hummarizes below were obtain- Florida is another State that inny have J fet j j,y jji H experiments upon this farm last to “compromise.” Her debt is about six | y oar . lu bis address he particularizes the vurious experiments by which the several results were ascertained, and they appear to be unmistakably indicated by tho crops produced. The soil on the farm was thin, having been in cultivation a number of years. Tho Professor being satihliod that the millions of dollars, and her population not exceeding two hundred thousand, or about one-sixth that of Georgia. The question of admitting New Mexico as a Htuto is being agitatod in that Terri tory. Tho chief objection urged is the expense, tho fnndo] debt of tho Territory being now $100,000. The Livo Oak I'imes says that advioos from Tallahassee state that it is probablo a resolution will pass both Houses of tho Legislature condemning the Govoruor for not handing Littlefiod over to tho author ities of North Carolina, and recommend ing his immediate surrender A dispatch from Han Franoifioo reports the deaths, on the 3d inst., of King Lnna- lao of tho Sandwich Islands. Ex-Queon Emma, widow of a former King, and Da vid Kalukna, the most poworful chief in the nation, wore nawod for tho succesaor- ship, and a lively contest betweou them was anticipated. PoHTMAHTRU-UbNKUAL ClIKBWELL, while before tho Honso Committoe ou Appro priations, on Friday, advocated tho ostab lishment oti all railroads of tho United Stales of a speci »1 mail train, to bo run lit a high rutc of speed, for tho solo purpose of transmitting mail matter. The systom ho recommends is aomowhat similar to that now practiced in Europe. Maiidi Guam occasioned a “mixtry” of drinks and other things in the oflico of the Montgomery Advertiser. Wo copy ono o? its dispatches of Tuesday night: llfouitroxD, Feb. 17.—Govorner Kempor has for lighting a dual, on Fbysiciaus cer tify that turthcr confinement will lie fatal and after fldebustoriug, the House ad journed without final action. Another roads as follows : Atlanta was killed to-day by a borso running away. Ho was an extensivo o jL- ton planter before tho war. FoIaLok's description of tho ostentatious alms givers, who blazed their names “On charitable liata, those toll* that told Of who hud done the poor an alms, and half they gavo Kept to thommdrei to Irnep it Hounding,’’ finds au application in some of tiro public charities of Now York city. According to reports lutoly published, the expenses of tho House of ltofugo for the year 1873 woro $31,086 for tho poor, and $33,238 for sulurios, and thoso of tho Five Points ^ House of Industry, for the same period, woro $14,000 for charity, $10,073 for salaries, and $13,021) for debt and im provements. The late report of tho elections in tho departments of Alsace ami Lorraine, wrested by Germany from Franco, showed that the old French spirit still lived and assorted itself in tho elections for dele gates to the German parliament. And now wo learn by cublo dispatch that the deputies from Alsace and Lorraine have rnovod in tho lteichstag that a pleboscito bo taken in those proviuces to determine tho question of nationality. Tho Ger man government will hardly agree to this, uulous it puts tho supervision of tho oloo-’ tion in tho hands of officer* who can “work sharp and quick" in tho cause of a more thorough reconstruction. Tint Atlanta Constitution gives tho fol lowing particulars of tho death of Mr. John Jouob : “ Mr. Jones was going home to his residence in West End, about noon. Whoa within about a hundred yards of the house, his horse became frightened and dashed ou. A wheel the buggy ran iirto a gully, and Mr. Jones was thrown violently out, his horn! strik iug a rail of the fence. He was at once carried into the house, but diod in tweuty minutes without speaking a word, being unconscious all the while, lie was a little over seventy yonrs of age.” WHO IN TO HATE THE IIAC’O* T The Supremo Court of Alabama de cided, on Monday, in tho ense of a negro of Harbour county, couvicted of larceny, that a confession made by the prisoner to tho bailiff, under the assurance by the bailiff that “ if ho would confess tho of fence and tell where tho bacon was, he would Do turned loose," should not have boen received in evidence against him. This may be very good law, for aught that we know; but we suggest that the judgmeut of the Court would have boon more complete if it hud decreed what dis position should be made of tho bacon. Ought it not to have been given to the .negro as a compensation in Mn.tll part for the outrage upon his persouul rights in volved iu the attempt to muko him convict hiuisolf? l)o the Civil Eights and En forcement acts uft’ord no remedy in a case of this kiud ? An Ingenious Invention.—Mr. George A. Gustiu, formerly a citizen of Augusta, and uow residing in Washington City, is one of the co.iuventors of a type writing machine which, if successful, will provo ono of the greatest and most useful in ventions of tho age. Tho typo writer is about tho size of an ordiuary sewing ma chine, and is worked with keys similar to piano keys. It is claimed that an expert eau write with it readily sixty words a minute, and that it r m write fully a hun dred words a minute. Any person, it is said, with only two week's practice, can write with it faster than with a pen. It can also •'manifold" or write two to twenty copies at once, when desired.— Atlanta Herald,. —The South Carolina Legislature has declined to impeach Judgo Curpenter for his “insinuendoes” agiinst the colored jurymen. The resolutiou calling for an impeachment failed to receive tho neces sary two-thirds vote, and so the case was allowed to drop. —Seuator Suuiuer has in his possession ft gold watoh which was presented by Washington to Lafayette, Hfter the battle of Yorktown. Upon it in this inscription : “G. Washington to Gilbert Mortier de Lafayette, iu commemoration of the cap itulation of Lord Cornwallis at Yorktown, Oct. 17, 1771, RENOf.t TIO.VS OF TICE OPELIKA itUANiiL Opelika, Ala., Feb. 7, 1874. Whereas, we believe it to be the duty of all good men to lend their aid and ener gies to the promotion of that which tends to ameliorate the condition of their fellow men, and feeling that our country calls anxiously for the best efforts of every class of its citizens, and believing that as a class, none are able to do more to re lieve its distresses than the farmers: Therefore be it Resolved, 1st. That we hereby heartily approve of the advice of tho Alabama State Grange whereby it recommends to the planters of Alabama the planting of a sufficient area of laud in grain to supply the most arnplo demand of home con sumption, and to the divesifying of crops. Resolved, 2d. That we, members of the East Alabama Grauge, will arrange our crops so as to make our farms self sus- commorci.l l.nlll.or. do ..... COLDMBUS CARRIAGE REPOSITORY. possess uniformity, did not use them in these experiments, but used instead the halls, acids, ashes, Ac., which compose them, in their unmixed state, combining them with eaoh other or with other ingre dients to obtuin tho compositions desired. One gonerul conclusion reached by tho Professor, and which his experiments sooiii to establish, is that phosphoric acid is the first minors] principle exhausted from worn soils, and tho first needed ns a fertilizer; but that it remains iu the soil in an umolvod stato, needing other sol vents than cold water and common culti-^ v a tion. Tho experiments wore conducted with a view to ascertaining tho agricultural rather than tho commercial valuo of the several fertilizing ingredients. Tho Professor is satisfied of tho profit of turning under green cropH, raising sheep both for market and for the im provement of tho land, and plunting crops for thoir subsistence. We copy his summary, based upou tho results of tho experiments above referred to : To sum up tho practical bearings of these oxporimonts ; they teach, 1. That there is a grout waSto of am monia when Peruvian guano is used in its concentrated form ; it Hhould bo mixed with superphosphate, alkaline salts, otc. li. That no combination of salts, leav ing out soluble phosphoric ucid will pny on our worn soils. 3. That taken separately nouo of tho salts sold as foitilizors to make homo compounds will pay. Thqir virtues, if any, must ho in chemical notion upon each other, and the substances with which they are composted. 4. That ashes treated with sulphuric acid will greatly improve their fertilizing qualities. f». That 200 lbs. of good ammoniuted Huphospliiilu is about the quautity to ho used on an neie of cotton. 3. That a H#*il abounding iu vegetable matter will pay a much bettor per Qent'. with commercial fertilizers than ono hav ing but little of this substance. 7. That a largo amount of fertilizers (say half a ton per acre) will not pay with low priced cotton. 8. That with good cultivation, good foitilizors will pay, ovon at the lowost rates of cotton ; but with bad cultivation they will hardly pny at any prioo. lb That while potash is more indispon- siblo to plant life than soda, tho latter may replace the formor uudor oortain cir cumstances. 10. That tlio di-phosphato of lime, ho- iug Jess soluble in cold water, is not fiioiont as tho bi-phosphate us a ferti lizer. 11. That stuhlo mauuro, eitlior ficsh or rotted, applied w<lh a high-graded super phosphate, makes a very efficient ferti lizer lor cotlou. 12. That cotton seed applied with the ;erm killed (or green, if put iu deep), in onjuuotion with a good super-phosphate, makes a powerful foitdizor. 13. That lime should never bo used in conjunction with a good super-phosphate, and tho application of supor-phosphutos to calcareous soils ih of doubtful utility. 14. Foitilizors applied during tho growth of the crop, to keep up a supply of nutri tion t«> the rootlets, will not pay under or dinary circumstaiicos. 15. That ammonia is tho most active and efficient form of nitrogen, when ap plied as a fertilizer, and that organic nitrogen in certain alvumiuoids is mero effectual than tho nitrates. i<». That tho value of nitrogen aud phosphoric aid to a farmer depends ou their forms and combinations, not their commercial value, which is rated accord ing to the law of supply and demand. 17. That tho application of soluble manures in a liquid form, is hotter and more efficient than when applied in the dry state. 18. That lime will pay on Hoils abound ing iu organic matter ; on other soils its application is of doubtful utility. iff. That subsoils do not germinate seeds or grow plants like surface soils. 20. That euily planting of cotton will not produce as much us that planted later, when the ground becomes warm, and the plant is not roturded, but grows off’ vigorously and healthy. 21. That subsoiling cotton lands will pay for tho extra labor ou our clay soils. 22. That ono stalk iu the hill will pro duce more cottou than two or uioro stalks. 23. That topping cotton is rather a detuuient than an advantage to tho crop. 21. That cotton planted iu narrow rows 24 foot wide, aud fertilized ou thin land, will produce more fruit than iu wider rows of a seasonable year. 25. That the difference between a rich and poor soil is probably owing to the aim Mint of available nitrogen and phos phoric ni id, held in soluble conditions with the humus or black matter resultiug from the decay of plants, in which there is always a sufficiency of the other min eral elements. 2<J. That subsoiling land for corn will pay for the extra labor even of a season able year, much bettor of a dry year. 27. That deep ploughing of corn during some seasons, at least on clay land, seems to answer as well, if not bolter, than shallow culture. 28. '1 hat five by three feet is the best distance to plant corn on medium laud, of a seasonable year. 23. That pulling fodder does not seri ously injure the corn after it passes tho milk stage. 30. That superphosphate is the best fertilizer for legumiuous plants, not be cause it is a preferred food, but because available phosphoric acid is deficient in our soils. 31. That largo crops of turnips can be made ou our thin lands by tho application of superphosphate of lime, aud inferen tial ly sheep husbandry might bo made profitable by feeding on turnips and fer tilizing the soil, ns well as for tho wool and mutton, and tho consequent reduc tion of the amount of cotton by the division of labor. more largely diversifying our crops. Resolved, 3d. That we will give more close attention to stock of all kinds, and try to itnprovo that which we have, and take steps towards raising uioro stock. Resolved, Ath. That we beliovo the credit system, as practiced by most plan ters, to be fraught with the most disas trous results, and the practice to be ruin ous to the planters. Resolved, Uh. That wo write in unmis takable characters in every department of farms, retrenchment and reform, and that wo will not longer persist in strain ing our credit, by attempting to farm beyond our capacity, but that wo will en deavor to live within our means, husband properly our resources, diligently labor to elevate our agriculture from a mere drudgery of life to an important science. Resolved, nth. That we do earnestly ro quest all planters, whether they be Pat rons of Husbandry or not, to unite with us in trying to bring about this greatly desired and much needed reform. Tho above resolutions were offered by Capt. D. Dullard, at a regular meeting of tho East Alabama Grange, Feb. 7th, 1874, and unanimously adopted and ordered to bo spread upon tho minutes of tho Grange and that tho city papers as well as the Columbus Sun & Enquirer and Southern Templar ho requested to publish the res olutions.
