Tho newspaiiera of the State itro j
ugoin advising tho planters how to i
pitch and plant orvpc. Wo re
speetfully suggest to our eotcmpora- j
rlos that tho full souson Is tho proper
time to tender this advice. We be
llovo that the average planter knows
his business better tlmn an editor
eun; yet wo venture to offer a sugges
tion to the planters.
Htort a hand early In September to
sowing oats in the cotton field, just
after it is plckod over the first time.
The ploughing, if judiciously done,
will not materially injure the crop.
A few young bolls will be knocked
off, and will fertilize tho land. By
this process yon will get the advan
tage which the wheat crop receives in
England by a clean Julio w, and one
hand will by January sow down per
haps eighty acres, from January
until cotton planting time be can
proparc twenty nrree tor corn and
cotton. Tims a-hand will cultivate
one hundred acres, and labor will
prove plentiful and proiltable.
Try the plan. It has been found
profitable In Worth Georgia. Wo are
aware that most men plant large cot
ton crops in order to meet maturing
notes'. But after the eighty acres or
oats, followed by eighty acres of hay,
all from one ploughing of eighty
uoros, are gathered and the proceeds
sold, we think maturing notes will
be sooner settled by this policy.

Editor Timet : The plea that the
prejudices of n people, which, finder*
certain circumstances, assumes tire
shape defined above, does not exist in
the South, Is an error. It is, how
ever, a trait as universal as human
nature itself ; and nowhere is it mure
perceptible than in the loyal New
England State of Maine. The pla
eerds or cards published to tho peo
ple against the cordial reception of
Senator Gordon and Representative
Tamar, during their recent particijMi
tion in the Democratic campaign in
Maine, is sufficient evidence that the
animus of the people there against
us is as intense fts the unfortunate j
prejudice that sectional and partisan
legislation will not let die in the
South.
Shortly after the war, a gentleman
of culture from Georgia visited Wash
ington, and presented a letter to one
of the most prominent Generals of
tho United States Army, residing
there. The letter was written by a
near relative, and the General had
been a guest of the relatives of the
gentleman who bore the letter of in
troduction. Greeting him kindly, I lie
General remarked: “Mr. S , I
regret that I can not Invite you to my
house, but I have promised my wife
not to introduce any ex-rebel t<> my
household.’ - ThisGeueral had lost
a gifted and very promising son in
Virginia, in a skirmish, and the cir
cumstances were such that the feel
ing of tho mother was too intense to
make tho presence of Confederate
soldiers agreeable to her. Mr. S —-—
was not angered by the General's
remark, but respected each as much
as before; but it ended intercourse.
It Is one of tho unfortunate legacies
of civil war in all countries, that time
alone will overeomo. Let us hope
that it will not be long before no just
complaint eon bo made against South
erners for this fault. It docs exist
to a degree, and it is natural that it
should. “With malice towards noue
and charity for all,” let us welcome
all new comers to share our destiny.
Respectfully, yours,

The Augusta Chronicle and Sentinel
of Wednesday says: “A meeting of
the stockholders of the Merchants
and Planters’ National Bank was
held at their banking house yester
day, at which it was resolved to wiud
up tho affairs of the institution and
discontinue business. Tho reasons
given for this action are that tho
business of the bank has ceased to bo
profitable, and there are no indica
tions that there will bo an early im
provement, hence it was considered
best to wind up before a loss should
bo entailed on the stockholders. Wo
learn from prominent stockholders
that the assets are fully sufficient to
insure $l2O for each share of stock. - '

Jay Gould has the art of convers
ing with his ears. Like most inter
view, this would have been a repro
duction Of nfy views, rather tnnn
thoso of Mr. Gvuld. A man who
takes conclusions from facts, rather
than theories yet to be demonstrated,
stands on the solid earth.
Within reach of Mr. Gould sat a
young man at a telegraph table, who
handed him a silo every few minutes,
which he glanced at while talking or
listening, ahd, save a low “vos” or
“no,” found no interruption' in the
“business” to our talk. The Pacific

mineral ana other resources, had
come to be to the country what tho
South once was.

The monstrous proposition to make
the Federal Uovormuenton immense
hotel-keeper, a tremendous stage
drlvuf, or a magnificent, theatre man
ager, crawled its way through u de
spairing Congress, whose dominant
party was gasping for breath ; but it
cannot creep through an independent
judiciary.—Cincinnati Enquirer.
“Such denial is not an offense over
which Congress can give this Court
jurisdiction. These are matters which
the State alone controls.” Decision
of Judge Emmons, of Memphis, Teen.
A colored preacher, Albert A Price,
yesterday entered the U. S. Attor
ney's office and swore out affidavits
under the Civil Bights bill for the ar
rest of Trunk J. Gates, proprietor of
the Crawford House, and Ills two
clerks, l’rank AV. Buskirk and John
B Connelly. They were arrested but
released on giving SSOO bail each for
their appearance, Cincinnati Enqui

Color can give no superior rights
over white people in these partlcu- j
iars, and any luw attempting to make ■
such a distinction is lfatly unconsti- j
tutional. A ease recently decided by
Judge Griswold, of Cleveland, Ohio,
bears directly on this point, and is :
doubtless an index of the current, of
decisions to follow on the subject. ,
The following were the facts:
February It, IH7:t, Bonj. Gardner
(colored , who had bought a ticket j
admitting him to the dress circle or j
paruuettc of Manager Ellslcr’s thea
tre, in Cleveland, was excluded there
from, ami his money was refunded.
Gardner left the theatre and brought I
suit agaiast the manager for damages.
Judge Griswold, of tho Buperior
Court, in his charge to tho jury, sta
ted ill effect lltul a theatre was a pri
vate establishment, and tliat, a mana
ger had the rigid to exclude whom
soever he pleased from it. The court
held: , ,
This plaintiff lias a right to bring a ,
suit for a breach of contract in refer- 1
encc to admission to the theatre as if j
he were a white person. But every
man bus the right to use his own
property as he sees fit, so that he does 1
not. injure tho person or property of
others. In the conduct of one’s own
business a man is not bound to con
sult the feelings or tastes of others,
lie has no right to injure their per- j
sons, or character, or property. Ho
long us lie does not do them wrongs, or |
commit nuisance, he may conduct his
own business in just such a manner
and on just such rules as he sees fit.
This right appertains as well to white
as black. It is conceded that Mr.
Ellsler conducts the Academy of Mu
sic for his own private gain, and if he
sees fit, in the management of his
business, to provide and establish a
rule that no person of color shall be
allowed to enter the dress circle, and
he enforces this rule, it is no ground
for any action against him by such
person. Gardner, the plaintiff, might
establish a theat re, and, if he saw fit,
he could establish a rule that no
white person should bo permitted to
enter the dress circle or any other 1
portion of the house.
The jury returned a verdict for the
defendant, und this decision tallies
with the argument of the ablest law
yers who discussed the Civil Right-.,
bill.—-A”. (>. Times.
Antidote fob Civil Rights.— The I
bill providing for the regulation and ;
keeping of inns and hotels, and in j
reference to houses of entertainment 1
for regular and transient boarders
was taken up. This is a Senate bill, I
and provides for the keeping of unli
censed houses or places of entertain- 1
ment for travellers, tho proprietors of j
which shall pay one-half of one per
cent,, on their not profits as a tux, and
no one shall have a right, except by
special contract, to demand enter-,
tnlnment at such houses, and such
contract shall lie printed or in writ-1
ing. The negroes were all strenuous
in their opposition to tho bill. Mo- ■
bile Register.
According to tho friends of the bill,
and ns stated by Beast Butler in hi- j
recent letter to tho negro committee |
asking his interpretation of the law,
its object was not to create any new ’
right, but simply to define existing ;
right* and privileges under the Con- 1
stitution, und to prescribe the mode
of enforcing them in the courts. This i
being the scope and object of the law,
it remains for tho courts to decide
whether and how far its framers;
have overstepped the constitutional
bounds.
The whole speech of Mr. Alcorn, bv
the way, from which wo have culled!
this one flower, exhibits that orator |
as a particularly unfit person to be in i
tho Senate. It will be seen that he
admits that Pinchback was not le
gally elected, but maintains that he
ought to lie admitted nevertheless,
because ho is a negro. This is civil!
rights with a vengeance. New York
World.
| A special dispatch from New Or
! leans the lath, says: "The first civil
| rights ease hero was brought to-day
before Commissioner .Shannon. ,T. C\
Mitchell, the master, and J. S. Bob
bins, the elerk of the steamboat Semi
nole, were charged by G. J. Cheva
lier, brother of Louis Chevalier, with
denying tho privileges of the steam
boat as passengers to L. Chevalier
and iiis wife on the voyage from New
Orleans to a landing on the Bed river.
The party were bonded for appear
ance and examination before the com
missioner at a future time."
Civil rights, as practiced by ne
groes, may be fitly designated as the
essence of incivility.

THE EMPIRE COMING.
When we have the conqueror and
usurper installed in the government
and he has gouo on extending his
military power until ho lias accom
plished ills purposes, the time may
come when some member of the
other Hall may introduce resolutions
like tliis:
Whereas, Great disturbances and dis
satisfactions exist in the country, and for
tho sake of preserving ponce and har
mony In tilts country, be tt
Resolved, That A or B is hereby de
clared President.
I don't care whether you call him
Monarch or King or President, for
tho next Presidential term or the
next eight years, what xvould you do
then? Whore is tho power to pre
vent H 2 Where is the army? Where
is tho navy? What would you do?
The impotenoy and the weakness of
|an unarmed people when brought in
contact with tho armed we all know.
We would be powerless, and I here
to-day say in the presence of this
Senate, and 1 warn the people against
the approaching danger, I toll my
countrymen, Mr. President, that the
Empire Is ahead, and that, instead of
having a five and republican govern
ment, now we have a kind of govern
ment which is called, a stratocracy.
I hold in my hand a book which
treats of the kinds of governments
and defines them, and after going on
and laying down the three great
principal forms of government
monarchy, aristocracy and democ
racy-the writer says that a govern
ment of these three can lie divided
into infinity, combining them all in
different form*, ana that one of the
forms of the combination is culled a
stratocracy, which is a military gov
ernment where tho country is ruled
by a military chieftain and whore tho
army is the power. That is the gov
ernment you huvn got now. the
army is the power. We have got a
stratocracy. We have not got a de
mocracy ;" wo have not gut are,
publican form of government, that
is all the government you have got.
How far off is the Empire? How far
off is military despotism?— Anfkreu:
Johnson.
The President, he argues, is already
in certain portions of the country as
absolute ms an Emperor, and if the
precedents of his rule in the South
are permitted to stand the Empire it
self will soon he upon us. Mr. John
son believes that tho administration
is trying to overthrow the govern
ment, and we are sorry to say that he
has plausible reasons for the opinion.
There are actH of the President that
cannot he explained upon any other
! theory than that of a scheme to hold
j the Executive power for another
I term, arid that means the end of tho
Republic our forefathers founded.—
| N. V. llerald.
Here is a foreigner who applies in
II he grocery line one of the great ideas
; employed in politics by His Exoeilen-1
;cy the President. He sends around
circulars with descriptions of his,
prime teas, and adds, “If I do not
I hear from you to the contrary I shall,
i consider it an order ami will send you '
ten pounds of the best by the 20th j
iost., and draw on von fortheinon
! cy.” Grant says the same to Con-;
gross. ”1 propose to put my foot on \
such a Southern State; if you don’t
make a law to the contrary I shall
consider that yon ooneent."
It the President had been governed i
by a sense of public fitness alone in ;
selecting his candidates for missions ;
he would have sent Sehurz to Vienna j
and Carpenter to Russia. But tire i
only consideration tliat seems to have
controlled his mind is the fact thatj
many politicians have been thrown
ui>oii tho cruelty of an unkind world '
by tho recent political revolution, and I
that, having served him well, having
obeyed without a whisper every com- j
I mand from the White House, having
supported Ids administration, not
with the generous consideration of
the manly representatives of a free;
people, but us the staff of a general,
lie is bound, therefore, to give them
employment out of the public Treas
ury. What is tliis but Ctesarism?;
For what is Ciesarism but the power!
of a ruler to pay ids followers for)
their vassalage out of the public
Treasury? What more could Casar j
or Bonaparte do than General Grant
Is doing now? He places the resour- 1
cos of the Treasury, the appointments j
to high places, embassies and judge-!
ships, at the control of the men who,
have followed him and who will
follow him to the end, just as Bona
parte made the men who obeyed him ;
m dissolving tho French Assembly |
and destroying the French Republic j
dukes and marshals and kings. - New
