Will not Col. Estell appoint tho Cth of July as the day for the assem blingof tho Press Convention, Instead of the ,7th? Then he will give the editors a ehance to be in Atlanta on the sth. Editors, with slim purses, can’t afford to be absent long. The last weekly cotton report of tho Memphis Cotton Exchange shows the receipts since September 1, 1871, to have been 318,845 bales, against 420,- o'jß for tho same time last year,-and 390,418 bales the year before; stock on hand this year, 13,050; last year, 24,771; the year previous, 26,452. Twisty clergymen of the Protos tant Episcopal Church have left that communion and joined tho Reformed Episcopalian during the past year. Three wore connected with the Dio cese of Virginia, two witli Pennsyl vania, Pittsburg and Kentucky, and one each with Maryland, Tennessee, Alabama, Albany, Massachusetts, Long Island, Indiana, Colorado, Kan sas,Central Sow York and North Car olina. A LoNix dispatch states that agents for English emigrants will visit this country shortly to examine locations in the Mississippi valley for settlement, which fact should lead to some extraordinary efforts to keep them out of tho hands of the agents of tho grasshopper-plagued trans- Mississippi Slates, who invariably eomo forward with their plausible stories. Cannot they bo induced to come iu this direction, and settle in the Chattaboocheee valley? We will furnish just as good lands, and far less sickness and pestilence. Uor. Charles J. Jenkins. This distinguished Georgian has a letter in the Augusta Chronicle de clining the use of his name for Gov ernor. The letter is full of the noble ness and the patriotism that lias ever characterized tho life of this pure man. Tho press were very generally in favor of his nomination, and tho people equally, so. This sentiment on tho part of Georgia to their ex- Govemor must have been very grati fying to him in this, the evening of his life. His letter is marked by his usual unselfishness. He will long live in the hearts of the people as a noble man. The Ooveruorshlii. Since ex-Govornor Jenkins has de clined to become a candidate, we would like to see the discussion on the Gubernatorial race suspended. Thero are plenty of good men to choose from, and discussions at this day can do no good, and may result in hard feelings and party nulmosties. Wait until later, end then wo can discuss the relative claims of aspirants for the position. As the matter now stands, the promlnont candidates sug gested are Gen. A. H. Colquitt, Col. Thomas Hardeman and Mr. James. Dentil of Ken. Dull tireen. Our exchanges bring us tlio notice of the death of Geu. Duff Groen. Wo have hoard of him everoinco wo could remember anything, and had learned to regard him as a great man. His roimtation was national—won during the lifo-timo of General Jackson - he having edited a paper in Washington during the year 1882. Ho died at his residence In Dalton. Ho was sup posed to bo niucty-oddyears old. All of the great men that he know on Intimate terms years ago, have long since paid their debt to Mature. He was, at the time of his death, probably the oldest living editor in the Dotted Htates. Those who knew him, describehimas a hero—a man of unflinching nerve, patriotism and in tegrity. He was the compeer of Cal houn, Olay, Crawford, Webster and Jackson. Out of the l ulu. The disturbing spirit of Bryaut, the Hkowbogaulte, is about to take a rest. The latest from him wo learn through an aildress to his constituency, do- I dining to contest any further tho seat in Congress of Hon, Julian Hurtrklge. He haa discovered tho effort was des- Unod to boa futile one, though he places it upon tho ground that tho nest Congress is a Democratic one, and honeo bis inability to get justioe before that body. Ho meant to say that the vile carpet-baggers and mo ney changers had been driven from tho Temple, and that there was not sufficient material to “work on,” to, get them to disregard law and prece dent'and seat him in tho interest of the Republican party. The only other contestant is a oopper-faoed individual who figures about Atlanta and is known by the euphonious appellation of .Too Mills. Joe will arrive at the same conclusion that his brother carpet-bagger Bry ant has reached, and drop out before the time comes. Kdlterl&l Correspondence. Baktow County, Ga., June 9, 1870. Crops are backward in upper Geor gia, the long drouth having retarded the growth of oats and the grasses. The country north of-Atlanta seems animated by impatient energy, and rural improvements dot the land scape all along the line bf the road. Many sales are taking place, and in this eounty lands seem steadily ap preciating in value. Mr. John B. ■Bulrd, formerly of Columbus, has purchased the beautiful home of Mr. C. W. Howard, near Kingston. The Tenders of White’s Historical CoOoc itions of Georgia will remembor the description* of this home, which the author characterized as one of the most beautiful in the State. Fifteen years hence these furms in tho Cher okee country will bo very valuable, and, we think, more so than any coun try real estate In Georgia. Already It l.s difficult to Invest one’s money safely and profitably. Railroads have ceased to be desirable investments, as is also the case with tho man ufacture of iron. Mining is precari ous ; and city real estate has declined in every city In the State. Our peo ple seem averse to following “the no blest, wisest, and most healthful pur suits of man,” to use tho words of Washington. It is only in those sec tions where jieople live on their farms and small farms prevail, that land is steadily rising in price. We met Mr. Scarratl in Atlanta, who is very sanguine iu his expecta tions of inducing English emigrants to come to Georgia. Wo hope our people will encourage him. F. F. nodes and Hrsults ol Irrigation. The system of hill-side ditches is a good one to follow in irrigating. Tho first thing to bo doge is to carry the water on the highest ground possible, and this will bo your main ditch. Ir rigation should commence at the lower end of the ditch, thereby saving time in repulrs; for if commenced at tho upper end, the water usually makes the banks of the ditch soft and breakages arc apt to occur. It is best to use as large a stream of water as the nature of tho ground will permit without endangering the soil by washing it away and forming “gul lies.” These become very destructive on our light bottom land, often cre ating gullies of great size, extending sometimes across the “flats” to the river. In times of high freshots the river, backing up these gullies, causes serious and rapid inroads upon the sides of tire gullies, which cave and are borno by tho current away. The same thing on a sdialler .scale results when Irrigating canals arc either neglected, or are badly constructed, ou our hill-sides, it requires the greatest care to preserve sandy soils in irrigating. On creek level luffds, wo believe the best way, when cir cumstances will admit of a cheap and durable dam with sluice gates, is to flood the land by back-water. In Colorado, when hill-sides wash, they use four laths nailed together, which form a trough for the water to run in. They are placed in tho ditch a rod apart near the bottom, and the water can run night and day without injury. In Upper Georgia, water is often convoyed long distances from high elevations in logs, which are bored especially for tho purpose. Frobably tho most successful irrigation prac ticed in this country is in Utah. An intelligent fanner writes from there as follows; Having our mains ou the highest lands wo could easily irrigate each way from them. The mains be ing made, we laid off the Hold into, lands, varying in width, according to tho character of tho soil and the lay of the land, from one to twenty rods. The divisions were always by small ditches, which were made by running a furrow both ways and following with a wooden scraper made like an A. If our lands or divisions were dry for a long time, wo generally pre ferred to divide them by running an other main through. I should advo o,ito the irrigation of small grain by flooding. I rrigato e.oru, potatoes and garden vegetables by sending a stream of water through the rows. The be ginnor is apt to err by using too much water, rather than too little. A dark colored soil absorbs heat -a light one reflects it; hence mucky soil is more readily watered by furrows than a light soil. Fail plowing will need loss irrigation than spring plowing; and oats will stand more water than wheat. A dry May, in our latitude, is good for wheat, but bad for oats. It costs a great deal to irrigate, and a great deal moro water Is needed than one who lias never tried it would imagine. Water enough must bo had to keep a man constantly busy, hoe in hand, conducting it to every portion of the field until all is watered. A good hand will water properly an acre a day. Kuu your houd ditches on a grade of not more than a half-inch per rod, and tivo to twenty rods apart. Commenoo irri gating before the crop begins to suf fer from drouth. Mr. Meeker, the rounder of tho Grocloy colony in Col orado, gives the following conclu sions: First, gardens require water at least ouoo a week; grain once in two or three weeks. Second, the ground must be level, or free from el evations or depressions, and head fur r'ows should be avoided. Third, when water is needed, a largo head should be provided, so that the ground may be covered as quickly as possible. When irrigating is to be done, a man must be with the water all tho time. Fourth, no two pieces of ground be ing alike, no general rules can bo given, and good judgment is necessa ry. Fifth, farming by irrigating is more profitable than when rain is de pended upon, as it is moro certain in its results. If any one doubts the practicability and success of irriga tion, let him visitKau Antonio, Texas. In this old Spanish town, and over several thousand acres near by, irri gation is regularly employed once in ten days. A light tax was formerly levied to keep the ditches in repair. Irrigable kind everywhere in the val ley is worth from SIOO to SHOO per acre, while adjoining land of the same soil, but not irrigable, is worth only $5 per acre. # —Col. D. F. Boyd, Superintendent of the Louisiana State University, has definitely accepted the appoint ment of Superintendent of the Gov ernment Military College, near Cairo, Egypt, with the rank and pay of a Brigadier-General in tho regular army of the Khedive.

Ac cordingly he "baited a largo sized cattish hook with a piece of chicken, placed the hook in the roof of his mouth after tying it to a piece of string about two and a half feet long, i and went on to his plowing, waiting patiently for the worm to crawl up and swallow tho bait , so that he could catch him. In speaking to the horse very loud, tho hook was drawn down bis throat by the peculiar motion of the muscles of the face, and air suc tion, whore it caught in the flesh above tne beard of the hook and could not be removed without the assistance of physicians. The doc tors of Tazewell worked an hour or two in the evening trying to get it out, hut night came ou and they had to leave the hook in his throut until the next morning, when they cut a forked stick and aliped cotton down tho line to the hook, so as to keep it from catching when they loosed its hold. Tho physicians broke the hook loose and brought out with it a large piece of flesh. The poor devil is getting along very well and will soon get ovet it.” UENKUM.
