Too much and too long have the poo- pie of the South—those especially who nro in debt or have to procure ‘'advances" —relied upon tho labor of flood nogroes to build them up to iudopeiulcuco agaiu. It lias not worked satisfactorily so far, ami there is no evidouco tlmt the coadi- tiou is improving, it is ono of the things that prompts the making of so much cot ton—cotton wherewith to ruiso mousy to pay for hired labor that barely repays tho nost of employment. We may regard it ns almost certain that iu the proportion in which land-owners roly upon their own labor and tlint of their families, in tho same proportion will they docrouHe their cotton and iuorou.o their provision crops. While, therefore, it is at Unit thought saddeniug to hoar t hut Hu tunny planters have tit curtail their foroo of hired no- grocs, it is at ilia sumo time encouraging to have tho iiasuranoo that this will work a partial reform iu their farming economy, and ono that will bo apt to lay tho basis of a stable and growing proporty. Tho following report, which the Orifliu vYir </v» makes, of the oourso which many planters in middle Georgia are pursuing, is one that ought to iuHpiro hope iustoud of despondency. Wo have an abiding faith that the resolute ami self-reliant class mentioned will, at tho close of tho year, find themselves bettor off than they bavo lioeii for six or oight yours past, and will discover that they have at last made the first sure and reliable advance towards indepoudenco nud prosperity. Tho New* nays: "Jho planters iu this section are striving to release themselves from debt and make themselves independent. They have largely curtailed thoir force, and many are running plows theiusolveH. Wo know of soino mou who last year employed at least thirty negroes. This your the number bus been reduced to ten, aud tho planter bus taken charge of a plow. Another farmer employs no ne groes, where ho h\d many last solemn, and he and all his sous are doing all the farm work. Wo hear of other instances of this kind, aud bolievo it u fair indica tion of tho people generally. Negro la bor is cheaper sml more abumlaut than at any period siuco the war. lurtoad of boiug sought after. usUorot f oro has boon tlio case, numbers axo begging for work. Hands which last year oowmandod $luo aud $130 u year, now only ask $50. Many out of employment seek to labor for clothes and food, yet planters will not or axe uutible to give that. Those “wander ers” are, lioweve*, allowed to cultivate land at a small rental, but they must sub sist themselves, J his is the gouornl con dition. Whites are leading tho forces iu the field in active operations." ■too 14.s AMD iT.HIOlHt Al.«. WKllSTKli’s DICTIONARIES. We beg to call thu attention of our readers to tlxo advertisement of ltobert E. Park, general agent for Webster s Dic tionaries for Georgia. Swift ouoo wrote u capital satire ou “tho ba'tU of the books," but what to him was a burlesque iu this day seems to bo a reality, for wo have now a veritable battle of tho Dic tionaries—Worcester and Webster bat tling for tho mastery. While there is much to commend in the former dictionary, and while it has met tho approval of mauy exuiueut scholars, it never seems to have met the wants of as does tho great work of the greatest lexicographer of our lan guage -Webster. From choice, and after carefully comparing the merits of both and considering our own wants iu this liue, wi‘ some years ago procured a Web ster's Unabridged; and wo never npeut ten dollars more profitably. Mr. Park, the agent, is located at Macon; aud as dictionaries are absolutely essential to every j>» t-ou that reads or writes, we hope his ugeu<-y may prove a source of profit to himsell. ns we know his dictionaries will be of bouefii to (he purchasers. pease and nokman Bend us tho Weekly number of Appleton's Journal.
