Settled. -The gush over the “blue

satisfactorily to all parties concerned. ,
A wise nnd statesmanlike Confeder- i
ate has climbed tho Bunker Hill i
monument of 21)5 steps, in company ,
with a regular blue nose Ynnkeo sol- j
dior, and when they got to tho top
the Yank drew his whiskey and the
Coated his tobacco. They drank and
chewed together, nnd then waving

I*l ke comity Veterans.
Wo acknowledge tho receipt of an
invitation to tho Be-union of the
Pike County Confederate Soldiers at
Troy, Ala., on tho 21st of July. We
will endeavor to be present. Col. W.
D. Wood is chairman of the commit
tee ou invitations, and Col. Menefee
of arrangements. They desire that
every soldier of the county shall at
tend, bringing his rations and blank
ets to go on an encampment fora
few days. They extend a hearty and
cordial invitation to Confederate sol
diers from the adjoining counties
and from Georgia. We hope they
will have a pleasant, re-union. It is
eminently proper tha t theso veterans
should have an annual occasion of
this sort. It certainly tends to fie j
vato the standard of true love of
country. Men who go to such re
unions arc not the men to go back
upon the principles we fought for,
and from their lips never echoes
“wo ought to have been whipimd,”
as -we nave hoard from men who
claimed to be Southern men and
Southern soldiers.
STATE HOVEKKHiNTY.
Messrs. Editors: Your correspond
ent “Opelika,” has joined issue in
favor of Htato sovereignty, submitted
his pleading and law, and decided
tho issue in tho affirmative. And
with your permission, a plea in re
buttal will bo entered.
Sovereignty is tho supreme, or
highest power in a government. In
what respect then does a State pos
sess supremo power—a power higher
than that exercisod by tho Federal
Government? Not in one thing, but
in all oases of a conflict of power be
tween the Federal Government and a
State, judicial or otherwise, tho State
yields, and especially is this so of all
things pertaining to National author
ity. Tho authority and power of a
State to legislate, and to establish a
civil judiciary and a final code, is not
a sovereign right, because no State
can pass any law or ordinance, in de
fiance of, or in conflict with a Con
gressional law; neither may they pass
a law that is equal in extent of powor
with the laws of Congress, because
under tho Constitution State authori
ty Is limited—it, is Inferior and conse
quently subordinate. This is demon
strated in the bankrupt laws, which
i destroy the obligation of a contract.
Suppose Congress should pass a con
script law; nothing short of sover
eignty could annul it in a State.
Does your correspondent contend
that a State may do this? May a State
interfere with the authority of the
General Government to declare, or
carry on war? If not, it is for the
lack of sovereign power. Some sup
pose that because the public lands
are hold and granted by the State,
that as by the common law tho title
is in the sovereign, therefore the State
is sovereign, because it holds the title
to the public lands. Is this so? The
public lands in all the States and
territories of tho U sited States, ex
cept in tho old thirteen, originally
belonged to tho United States, and
upon the admission of anew State,
as an act of justice to the inhabitants
within tho limits of such State, Con
gress usually allows these lands, not
otnerwise disposed of, to bo held and
disposed of by tho State. Another
has said that the States possess the
right of “eminent domain,” hy which
it has authority to appropriate pri
vate property to public use upon pay
ment of just compensation, nnd that
none but sovereign power can do this.
I.et us see. This, and many other of
the States have a .statute authorizing
the appropriation of private property
upon payment of compensation, to a
private person to the right of a private
way. The authority for this act is a
greater stretch of power than the
former, aud still it cannot be said
that the first element of sovereignty
is necessary to either.
But “Opelika" says it has been set
tled by tho United St4g<w Supirni'-
Court that both file Federal and Htato
Uovcrnmoptß ypossCß|pb bojMToign 1
poj|cr<h-that at least tta Stag's have!
some .sovereignty. Woll thiu aud all
othor docisionß of tho bamo purport
Is very much like tho opinions of
politicians embracing tho same idea;
It Is undefined and undefinable,
and Involves tho absurdity of
a divided sovereignty In the same.
Government. It was never regarded
as valid law by a large portion of the
American people, any mnro than we
do tho Civil Bights bill. But this de
cision was made in tho former times
—the days of more theorizing oo the
great question, when there hud been
no practical test of the strength of!
this theory. But when an attempt
was made to carry it out by seces
sion, then the tug of war cumo, and
the Idea—for it was never any more—
was suppressed overwhelmingly by
the sword, at a very greut cost of
blood and treasure. And this was
duly acknowledged by the several
Southern States by acclamation in
their constitutions, that “tho Consti
tution of the United States and tho
laws of Congress mado in pursuance
thereof is tho supreme law of the
land.” Will tho coming State Con
vention of Alabama interfere with
this provision? Hardly. And now in
the face of these things will your cor
respondont say that the decision to
which ho refors is not abrogated? Or
will ho, as do most of the ancient
Dcmoerals, stick to the validity of
this merely ideal but obsolete theory
as soriously as did Don Quixote of the
Governorship of Sancho I’anza. No
matter how much we preferred und
cherished our old State sovereignty
ideas, they arc gone, and forever. .
And arc we any the worse for it? Are
not our personal rights as large and
well protected as ever they were?
Wherein have they been abridged?
Suppose “Opelika” was a member of
Congress instead of the Alabama Leg
islature, would ho be any the loss an
American citizen, and would he bo
any the less a lover of liberty? And
would ho not look with as much con
fidence to tho strong arm of the Fed
eral Government for the protection of
life, liberty aud property, as to a
puny State Legislature? Or will he,
like the Times, say nothing about it
in the next election, but wait for a fa
vorable opportunity to come out with
it; then be must wait a long, long
time. Thinker.
We have only one remark to make,
and will then leave “Thinker” to the
tender mercy of “Opelika.”
Sovereignty rests in tho collective
State, and not in the general manager
of the compact. Powers were dele
gated to tiie United States to bo exer
cised in a special way. A State can
not delegate its sovereignty, for it is
an inalienable right brought about
by the very nature of man and crea
tion. Each power delegated from
I one State, was an agreement with the
other States, as the party of the sec
ond part, and formed an agreement
between co-Stntes. Eaeh State is
per sc a nation, and in fact a sov
ereign. The union is not national,
but federal. This is tho doctrine we
have been taught from our infancy,
and wo are prone to think it right.
The Union is not a party to tho agree
ment between the States, but a crea
tion from the contracting States, and
growing out of the Union of the
States.
imneuMv
For tho main ditch, select tho high
est ground possible; and il‘ you can
choose, you should select a good,
solid, clayoy soil, as nearly impervi
ous to water as possible. A fall of 2J
feet to the mile should be obtained.
Water will run at a fall of 8 inches to
tho mile, corresixiridiug to the curva
ture of the earth; but this is not
enough. Tho smaller tho stream tho
greater the fall allowable. Tho bank
for dam and sluice-gate should be
very solid; a substantial dam at the
outset is tho cheaiiest iu the long run.
The material for the construction of
tho dam depends on tho locality, and
the object in view. On our cotton
plantations, when practicable, sufti
cient fall should be obtained to admit
' of ginning, threshing, cuttiug up
1 forage, and grinding. In building a
sluice, dig deep, so as to placo your
sills and timbers whore they will not
be washed away.
> TAEL OE THE MAIN HITCH.
A fall of 1 in 9.288 gives a mean
velocity of G Inches per second in an
artificial canal; 1 in 27.000 gives a
mean velocity of 7 inches per second.
I Tho canal which conveys water to
i London is on a scale of 0.21 foot per
mile. Its motion is a half mile per
hour. For irrigation this is entirely
too slow. The fall of the Croton Wa
ter Works is 1.125 feet per mile. The
artificial canals In tho Netherlands
are 30 to 10 feet per minute mean ve
locity, and from 2 to 0 inches to the
milo. Tho l’latto river below Den
ver, Colorado, has a fall of 11 feet per
mile. Cherry creek, from its source
to its mouth at Denver, has a fall of
35 feet per mile. The great fall of tho
streams in Colorado renders her sys
tem of irrigation the best in this
country. Colorado, in this respect,
resembles Northern Italy, where the
Adda and the Ticino, taking their
origin from tho melting snows and
torrents of the Alps, send their fertil
izing waters ovor hundreds of thou
sands acres in tho rich plain of Lom
bardy. The Sierra Madre offers tho
same benctleent gift to the great
plains of Colorado and Kansas. Each
hill towering over a valley, where
springs and branches have their
sources high above the valley, offer
the same inducement, on a smaller
scale, to nearly every plantation on
the Chattahoochee river. The size of
the ditch depends on the number of
acres to be irrigated; 50 inches for 80
acres would usually suffice for ordi
nary farm crops; garden crops want
more; rice and grass crops want still
more. The quality of the soil, and
tho amount of evaporation nnd seep
age, mist also )>o taken into consid
eration. If ft Is very sandy, more
water must bo used. In a long ditch
tUejumouut ot evaporation is a largo
j itam. Tho draper the amount of wa
ter carriod by a ditch, In proportion
to Its width, the less fall is necessary,
and the loss is much smaller from
evaporation und leakage.
QUSSBXXC MOLES OU’ LEUUCUIIO.S.
llcdwurk is douo \
by a series ot hatches or sluices In
tho main ditch, opening Into lateral!
brunches at Tegular distances from
each other. The land between eaeh
forming planes of sometimes thirty,
forty or fifty feet each. These must
vary in width according to nature of
tho ground and crops to be watered.
Cat<;/<uvtcr irrigation. .- The water
Is taken from tho main and pa sses
down the slope a short distance, then
takes a turn horizontally along the
side or face of tho slopo i like our hill
side ditches), continuing tlVtlie fur- j
thest point. It is then iet down to a i
lower point and returns on a lower i
parallel, sny twenty or thirty feet,
just us our liillsklo ditches are com- |
ruonly constructed. This process is j
repeated until the whole hillside is
irrigated. We believe that irrigation
ditches first suggested the custom of
horizontal ditches on our hillsides,
though we have never seen this fact
stated. We are confident that for j
saving tho land hillside ditches cost
more than they are worth, unless [
used for Irrigation ; for, unle-s u force
of hoc hands clean them out regular
ly after a rain, they will waste more j
soil than tho natural current of tho i
water would. Xatnre nerer wakes j
horizontal hillside ditches for drainage j
purposes, and nature is almost an in-l
fallible guide in farming. There are !
many erroneous ideas in our system I
of planting destined to be abandoned ;
on account of the higli price of labor I
and low price of products.
Flooding.— I This is the cheapest but
mostdungerous system; as, if tin
slope of tho ground is too heavy,
washing of the soil, and if care is not j
taken “baking” of the soil by thej
sun, will result. Nature shows us the
character of the land to tie flooded.
Whenever a freshet occurs a limit is j
established for us to follow. “Wool- j
folk’s Bend,” on tin t ’hattahoochee, !
can bo kept perpetually rich by the I
sedimentary deposits after aeh an- J
nual or biennial overflow. Tho Jap
anese would make of such planta- j
tlons a mine of wealth, that wedoj
not dream of in our philosophy, by I
planting such plants ns rice or grass |
upon these alluvial bottoms, where
nature will perform all tho labor of
tho husbaudmuu except harvesting.
IVarping. -This is applied to lands
submerged with water, and is scarce
ly ever used except on tho seaside,
where tho tides can be employed. It
is done by embankment of the land
and letting in the water, allowing it
to stand until the sediment or warp
is deposited.
iSubterraneous Irrigation.- This is
done by letting the water entirely in
to deep drains to reach down into the
subsoil, and does not appear on the
surface excopt by absorption or up
ward percolation. It is suited to very
dry climates, and can be used any
time of the day in the time of great
est heat and does not scald the
plants. In underdraining you place
your ditches in the lowest places, and
in subterranean irrigation you pluce
them in the highest pointof the land.
Early in the morning, or late in the
evening, or just before a rain, are the
only proper times for applying other
modes of irrigation.
