At tho recent meeting of the Amer
ican Institute Farmer's Club, in
Cooper Institute, New Fork, I’rof.
Henry E. Colton read the following
paper:
In ray humble opinion, Mr. Chair
man, the Southern States offer at
this time the most inviting Held to
the intelligent emigrant of any part
of the United States, ami knowing
that tho attention of many isdlreeteu
thereto, I shall endeavor to so skoteli
j the soil and climate, the products
; and resources, as to furnish a brief
; guide to sueh as are hi search of a
j home in that region. In two of the
j Southern States, viz., Georgia and
'North Carolina, may be found every
variety of soil and climate and every
j character of wild tree or (lower and
cultivated plant of any and every
[other State in tho Union. This is
owing to the fact that their seashore
extreme is very warm from latitude
i a.ud contiguity of the Gulf Stream,
| and their Western er Northern seo
[ tion, composed of high mountains
which have the tree growth and sum
mer climate of upper New York with
out tlio rigorous winter. These
States may lie said to rise like a grad
ual incline from a sea level to an elo
| vation of 1,600 to B,two feet, with many
■ mountains to the height of 4,000 or
; 6,500 feet. The first has every geo
' logical formation of the United
States, and consequently all the
■ soils; tho latter has but a small area
of limestone lands. Tho States of
Virginia and Tonne--oc have nearly
; all the soils and products, the former
i partaking a little more generally of
[ the Northern type, while South l nr
| olinu and Alabama, witli varied oils,
j partake more of the Southern. Tile
same mav be said of Arkansas and
Texas. Mississippi, Louisiana and
Florida are strictly Southern in soil
and products. Virginia and Tennes
see have low, sandy lands, thence
running up to the elevated plateaus
producing the Northern grasses and
having the cool Northern summers,
uud South Carolina lias also a small
strip of similar character, while the
mountains of Alabama furnish an
approach to these sections.
It will thus be seen that the .sec
tions in which those ciops are grown
which 1 suppose most Northern men
desire to cultivate for instance, tho
small grains, grasses and fruits and
at the same time lie iu a climuto not
excessively warm in summer nor ap
proachingthatof the North in winter,
with enough of change for good
health und purity of atmosphere but
not for discomfort, are Virginia, Wes
tern North Carolina, Middle and
Northern th orgia, a part of Northern
South Carolina and Middle and East•
era Tennessee and a part of Northern
Arkansas. Texas has ~ > man., rail
road companies pulling her merits
that I need not add my little quota.
In the sections named, any soil and
climate lie may desire can lie gotten
by the emigrant, but .1 know of no
better mode of guiding him to them
than by stating the. .diirraeleriat ies of
the country on the. lines of railroads
[ which run into tie- South, hirst, t
j will state that only in Alabama and
i Arkansas are there any lands to be
[ taken by pre-emption or homestead,
Texas has State laws witli some sueh
provisions, but any settler may rely
upon it Unit all tho most valuable
lands have been long ago taken up
by settlers ami speculators. In Ala
bama there are some line timbered
and mineral lands not yet. taken up,
as by the law of Congress they can
not bo bought except for homesteads.
Tiie granitic and gneiss. iid soils and
slates of the oldest rocks, such soils
as YVostehestcr county, all New Eng
land, Chester and Holies counties,
Ij'a,; .Morris, I’assie, .Sussex and War
ren counties, N. J.; and Orange, Put
nam, Columbia and Duchess coun
ties, New York., as a general rule,
not so reeky, however, are to he
found on tiie tine of the Kiehmond
and Atlanta Kaiiroad, ail the route
from Richmond South to Danville,
through North Carolina, Upper South
Carolina ami Georgia. Tiie line of
this road rises from Richmond to an
average altitude of WH) feel above sea
level in North and South Carolina,
thence to full 1 ,000 in Georgia. It
runs through a strictly Piedmont!
country, at the foot of the mountain
chain. Passing through the same
character of land und joining the
above road at Danville is the Wash
ington City, Virginia Midland and
Southern I tail road, running from
Washington City, via Charlottesville
and Lynchburg, to Danville. in
Georgia the road from Augusta to At
lanta passes through a similar region,
and also the road from Atlanta to
West Point, Ga. At direct right, an
gles to these roads and traversing tiie
same character of soil cast to west
•is that part, of tho Atlantic, .Missis
sippi und Ohio from Petersburg and
Lynchburg, and beyond to tho eresi
of tiie Ultra Ridge; that part of the
Nol lh Carolina < 'outral, from Wades
boro to Charlotte, and beyond to its
western li iiiiiit ll. : the Western
North Carolina, via Morgunton, and i
thence on is surveyed line to Teniies
i ; and the We-tern and Atlhmie,
from Atlanta to Cartersville, (in.
From east to wr-q this belt of potash
lands i call them thus because they
are derived from rocks having much
potash in their composition, and
hence do not ne--d that fertilizer I
say this licit from cast to west, in
New Jersey not over thirty-five miles
in width, stretches out. iu Virginia to
160 miles, in North Carolina to near
three hundred mile , in Georgia from
otie hundred to two hundred, and
ends at a blunt point in Alabama.
The Richmond and Atlanta Railroad
runs in it for over two hundred miles.
Any crop may be grown on these
lands which is grown in tiie northern
sections I have named, witli tiie ad
dition of cotton and tobacco. The ,
Piedmont bell- has no superior for!
file production of peaches mid cer
tain varieties of apples, while from
its soil come tho original of the Ca
tawba, Isabella and other grapes.
The color of the soil is usually re i
or gray ; the native tree-growth hick
ories nnd-oaks; water abundant and
pure; no mosquitoes or mala
ria. Much of this laud can be
bought at very moderate rates,
seldom over $5 per acre, unless there
are good houses. The railroads run
ning through it are all great trunk;
lines, and horse transportation fa
cilities are good. The climate is mild j
and even. It might well be called \
the medium belt of our country.
Those who wish to raise early vege- ;
; tables for market must go to the re-1
gion around Norfolk, Va., tiie line of;
the Wilmington and Weldon Rail-j
road, and its southward branch to

owing to the cheap lands and rapid
I facilities for transportation, Us line
; offers more inducements than any
j other. Wilmington is two weeks
! ahead of Norfolk in seasons, hut
[ lands are not quite so cheap as be-
I you.l Savannah; where all “truck”
strikes together) though cost of
freight makes up the difference. The
limestone lands, the true grass-grow
ing, eattle-raiaiug uud Jairy-f inning
regions of the South are': The line of
the A. M. and O. R. R., from the Blue
Ridge to Bristol; the whole East Ten
nessee country, with the East Tenn.,
Ya. and G. li. li.. running through it,
and the Tennessee River navigable in
its centre for over lull miles; the Mid
dle Tennessee country, on the rail
road from Chattanooga to Nashville;
all North Georgia, with the lino of
the Western and Atlantic Railroad,
from Cartersville to Chattanooga,
forty milesof the Ala., and Chat. li.
li.. the Rome R. li., the S. li. and I),
li l!., and the Cherokee Railroad,
west from Cartersville, all running
through it; then about one hundred
miles of the Selma, Rome and Dal
tou, to Talladega, in Alabama, and
the northern mrt of Alabama on the
Memphis and Charleston Railroad.
Some of these lands are held as high
as S2O and s:m per acre, some, cannot
be bought at any price, others may
bo gotten as low as $1(1, and some,
perhaps, at Si per acre. They
are filled with springs of cold, clear
water, more or less limestone. Tiie
true bine grass is native to the soil,
lying in a great valley between two
high plateaus of mountains. The
summer climate is noted for moder
ate and not unpleasant coolness,
while the high mountains cut off tho
I fierce winter winds, and snow lasting
j for three days is a thing of wonder,
lienee it must iu the flit lire be a great
dairy region. And it will not tile less
become great; as a manufacturing sec
tion, ns the best judges in England
ami America have pronounced the
stores of iron and coal bordering on
ami in this great limestone, valley us
beyond any reasonable computation.
Mr. Chairman, l have t hus endeav
ored to sketch the points whereat
[ may lie found the soils a Northern

j crops with which he is familiar. It
| has been generitl, merely stating the
facts. There are other points which
enter into the choice of a homo, and
in indicating where such advantages
maybe found I shall continue this
series of papers, endeavoring hereaf
ter to he more brief. Tho series al
luding to particular seotions will com

progress agricultural and mechani
cal she is ahead of her Southern sis

State, and her financial condition
much better, and taxes much less,
Ilian any of the Western States. I
j will give'thv general advice to per

[ any where else, that, foragood judge,

A M n Orleans Murder ('use.
.Special lu lliu Tun s, l.y 8. X A. tlllr.l
New Om.itt ns, Juno 2'2. in tho trial
of Newton to-day for the murder of
.lustiii Bourdonuay, the jury brought
in a verdict of guilty of murder in
tho Ist degree. The jury appeared
in court and when asked by the
Judge whether they had agreed upon
tho verdict, tiie foreman responded
we have. “What is your verdict, gen
tlemen,'said |the Judge. “Guilty.”
There was considerable commotion
on the part of spectators. The pris
oner was heavily chained and guard
ed by six policemen. The counsel
for defense moved that. IHo jury be
polled, when after eaeli member was
called lie answered that guilty was
his verdict. Newton, witli a show of
bragadodo, laughed when lie heard
the responses of the jury, and tried
to cover ids emotion by a show of
nonchalance. Tho following are tiie
particulars of the murder;
On the evening of Sept Ist, 1871,
| during a public, meeting at corner of
I Canal .and Royal streets, Justin
Bourdonuay was quietly coining
along Canal street, when ho was
rudely brushed by one Alexander
Newton, a well known sporting man
in this Community. Mr. Bourdonuay
said “go away ; I don’t khow you, 1
don’t want to fight with you;” where
upon Newton repented tho insult,
adding, “1 can kill any son of a b~h
in tho white league,” upon which Mr.
Bourdonuay grasped Newton for tho
purpose of defending himself, when
Newton drew a bowie-knife and
plunged if into the heart of his vic
tim without a word of warning. Tho
crowd gathered around in a dense
throng to witness the dark tragedy,
women, men and children gazing
upon the ghastly wound and blood
stained streets in amazement , and so
great was the excitement that tho
-crowd, swaying to and fro in their
wildness, trampled unconsciously
upon the body of the murdered man.
Alter Newton had executed the
bloody deed lie fled up Canal jtreot,
Gut was captured by Detective De
vreaus iu Connor’s restaurant. Tho
knife with which the deed was done
was an old-fashioned black-handled
bowie-knife, about nine inches in
length and double-edge. The assas
sin knew well Ids work, for witli un
erring aim ho plunged tile weapon
between tho third and fourth ribs,
severing ids heart, tho blood rushing
in a copious flood from tiie wound,
and dripping through his ears from
hemorrhage. The wound was about
four inches in width and one of the
most ghastly nature.
The scene at the station was one of
the greatest excitement. Hundreds
of citizens and policemen gathered
around the office where tho body lay.
Expressions of regret and sympathy
were heard from all sides for the
death of so peaceable and worthy a
citizen.
From all we glean Mr. Bourdounay
was a man of a most peaceable dispo
sition, and quiet in ids demeanor, in
dustrious and hard working.
This man taken, so suddenly away
Gy tliu knife of the u-.sassin, leaves a
wife and six children to mourn his
loss. slr. li. was n bright; light in
the Odd Fellows, being a member of
the Polar Star Lodge I. O. O. F.
Tho prisoner, Alexander Newton,
for some time past lias been known
as a desperate man in this commun
ity. This, it is said, is not tho first
bloody deed which is upon tho hands
of this man. When not not under
tiie influence of liquor he was courte
ous and agreeable in his manner, and
had many warm friends, but when in
liquor lie became demoniacal and
seemed to lose his entire senses.
It is seldom we are pained to chron
icle so bold arid outrageous a deed as
this one, perpetrated upon the pub
lie, streets of a largely populated city
like this, committed in the presence
of hundreds of persons passing to
and fro on Canal street, and at so
early an hour in the evening as to
render it one of the most daring and
high handedassasinations on record.

THE SUN.
DAILY .AND WEEKLY FOB 1875.
The approach of the Presidential election gives
unusual Importance to the events and develop
ments of 1873. Wo shall endeavor to describe
them fully, faithfully aud fearlessly. *
THE WEEKLY SUN has now attained a circula
tion of over eighty thousand copies. Its readers j
are found in every State and Territory, and its
quality is well known to the public. We shall
not only endeavor to keep it fully up to tho old
standard, but to improvo and add to ils variety
ami power.
THE WEEKLY .SUN will continue t* be a tlior
ough newspaper. All tin* nows of the day will be
found in it, condensed when unimportant, at
full length when of moment, and always, wo
trust, treated in a clear, interesting and instruct
ive manner.
It is our aim to make the Weekly Sun the host
family newspaper iu tho world, it will be full of
entertaining and appropriate reading of every
Hurt, but will print nothing to offend the most
scrupulous and delicate taste. It will always
contain tho most interesting stories and ro
mances of tin; day, carefully selected and legibly
printed.
The Agricultural Department is a prominent
feature in the Weekly Hun, and its articles Will
always be found fresh ami useful to tho farmer.
The number of men independent in politics is
increasing, and tho Weekly Hun is their paper
especially. It belongs to no party, and obeys no
dictation, contending for principle, and for the
election of tho best men. It exposes tho corrup
tion that disgraces the country aud threatens the
overthrow of republican institutions. It has no
fear of knaves, aud seeks no favors from their
supporters.
The markets of every kind and the fashions
are regularly reported.
The price ef the WEEKLY HUN is ouo dollar a !
year for u sheet of eight pages, aud fifty-six col
umns. As this barely pays tho expenses of paper
and priuling, we are nut able to make any dis
count or allow any premium to friends who may
make special efforts to extend its circulation.
Under the new law, which requires payment of
postage in advance, one dollar a year, with twenty
cents tho cost of prepaid postage added, is the
rate of subscription. It is not necessary to get
up a club in order to liavo tho Weekly Hun at this
rate. Any one who sends one dollar and twenty
cents will got tho paper, postpaid for one year.
Wc have no traveling ugeuts.
TIIE WEEKLY HUN-- Eight pages, 56 c
Only $1.20 a year, postage prepaid. No di
