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. . [Communicated. soci.il, OSTKAIiX.M. 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, A * * As Avgusta National Bash. Closed. 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. - ' Colonel A, B, Mkacham, who was one of General Canby's truce party, and narrowly escaped death at the hands of tho Modocs, of the Lava Beds, now has a (tarty of those self same Indians giving entertainments in the Northern oitics, Tho Inquirer says that, their first entertainment, in Philadelphia was “unique,” and “created an immonsc sensation.” A tUkrteh of intrlnm l.tif.

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 slope, he said, - hud not been touched by the panic, and it, with its vast mineral ana other resources, had come to be to the country what tho South once was. After all, the phlegmatic tempera ment rules the world.—Don Piatt, in Washington Capital THE CIVU, RlbllTt HILL. 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 rer. 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. •Tin: WIN OF THE PEOPLE AX UKEVI JOHNNOV-THK EtIPIKE. 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 York Herald.
