His subjoct was Wendell Philips under the caption of O’Conhell. Mr. Philips Is probably the vainest egotist in America, and the most eloquent slanderer in the Union of a pooplo whoso shoes ho ia unworthy to loosen. Mobile Is very much Interested in the coal fields of Alabama, and wants direct water transportation to them. Mobile is not dead, but sleepeth. Don't call on Hercules to push your enterprises, but put your shoulders to the wheel; decide energetically to do it, and the thing will bo dono. Each city in the Bouth will have to carve her own destiny. If Mobile docs not summon extra energy, and that speedily, sho will become a way side station like our own city. It is very difficult to ruin an honest man. Lot a man convince all his creditors of his determination to do his best, to pay his just debts and try to do right, and the people will sus tain him more than ho supposes. Integrity can not be concealed or kept down. Let every man keep cheerful then; pay all that he can; iwlulgo in no useless extravagance; and the public will not requireof him more than he cun do. Any man who makes a fortune by honest labor Instead of speculation or the tricks of trade is a blessing to his country. But the greutest hero is lie who rises superior to adversity and makes truth iiis standard-bearer on all occasions. Atlanta assumes to fear the incur sion of “Tramps.” Tho metropoli tan character of that city is not suf ficiently known outside its limits to occasion any fear from tho visit of “Tramps.” We are rather inclined to sympathize with Northern "Tramps,” because the insane policy of tiie Radical party has deprived them of the visible means of support, and the contracted vision of North ern oontraotionlstß puts down the brakes and shuts off tho steam so short that industry is idle. Idleness being the only stock in trado possess ed by tiie tramp (so-called), Bulwor’s question, “Whatwill 110 do with it?” looms. But Atlanta need not com plain in advance—don’t borrow trou ble, friends. “Tramps” will hardly seek your city. The failure to imprison Duncan, Sherman & Go., as was done with Alexander Oollle & Cos., in England; tho failure to punish Henry Ward Beecher us was done in tho case of Col. Baker in England ; the repeated fail ure to convict Jno. D. Lee and his 00-assassins for the Mountain Mead ow massacre, committed eighteen years ago, which was u crime worse than tho Borgias ever dreamed of; are standing commentaries upon tho administration of law and justice in America. England sent an army to Ashuntee to fight the natives for op pressing a single subject. The United States oriuges, bows, yields to tho imperious demands of Bismarck in tho ease of young Steiukuuler. Com parisons Indeed aro odious. Who would not rather bo on Englishman than an American? Centennial. Wo think it would boa wise not on tlio part of the Contonnial Commis sioner for Georgia if lie would seeuro and safely preserve everything, not of a perishable nature, which receives decided testimonials of merit at the next State fair. Let sample® of eve ry wood that grows on our soil, show ing the horizontal sections and the bark, be preserved; let every mineral found within our borders bo clasai ilod properly and a sufficient quantity sent to Philadelphia to illustrate our dormant wealth; let an accurate de scription of the capacity of our lands to produce maximum crops of staple products bo given in a concise form ; let the number of acres cleared and in forest, together with water powers and prices of same in each county, be properly arranged and classified; let Georgia hnvo a free school house, with desks, etc,, as arranged here, and a description attached showing that tlio immigrant's children will ho educated by the State. Let these things bo done, not la a spirit of cen tennial glorification, but simply that the world may know what attractions the “Empire State of the South’’ of fer to foreigners to settle in her terri tory. Tile Centennial Exhibition will offer to our State the grandest and most economical advertising me dium that she will have in the next hundred years. We can not forget the insults added to the injuries in flicted by earpet-bug rule, but let us not gratify the Mortons of the North by lying supinely on our backs when wc oan assert our State’s power. Mliallirw cultivation. The tmno of Southern agriculture is shallow cultivation, when not pre ceded by deep tillage. It is this hur ried system, which has so defaoed our farms and plantations, with gul lies that bear away to the seu the fer tilizing salts of tho earth. Our peo ple as a rulo follow tho old policy of wearing out land and moving to now places or States, or “olearlng now ground.” When this is not done they too often eontinuo to cultivate large areas that cannot possibly pay book tho cost of cultivation. Glance at tho cultivated crops ulong the line of railways in Georgia, and this fact be comes patent to the most casual ob server. It is an unfortunate truth that light soils are best suited to tiie cotton plant, and that tlie theory of the cotton plunter causes him to “scarify” the surface, rather than to prepare Ills land thoroughly for a iurgo yield by deep preparation. Tho popular fallacy that cotton won’t grow until it strikes hard ground is sufficiently refuted by the crops in the Mississippi Valley, which produces tho finest yields per acre known, and which contains no “hard ground” within ten feotof the surfaco. Tiie inexhaustible supply of humus on tlioso alluvial lands makes the soil so porous and “mel low,” that deep preparation is un necessary ; but on our stilt river bottoms, and upon red uplands, there is a clay subsoil, perhaps four Inches from tiie surface, which, unless it is thoroughly brokon, forms a con crete bottom impervious to water. Tho roots of plants therefore are stojiped likewise when they reach tiiis clay sub-soil, and can not pene trate downwards as nature requires for full and vigorous development. The model farmer of England, Mr. J. J, Moehi, says; “Roots of wheat and many other plants descend for sever al feet when they ure permitted to do so, either by tho natural condi tion, or tho disturbed condition of the sub-soil.” Cotton takes less from the soil when all is returned to the field savo tho lint, than any other plant. How then does it happen that cotton culture rapidly impoverishes the soil ? The chief reason has been already given, and the next is this: Constant tillage and clean culture tend rapidly to exhaust the humus in tho soil, tho hot sun penetrating tiie naked earth as far as the one horse plow lias gone. If, now, a two horse plow hod broken the soil to the depth of fifteen inches supiplomented by tho sub-soil plow, the destruction of humus is the more gradual, uud, ifa proper rotation of small grain and peas—or clover when it will grow—bo followed, this sub-soil need never bo broken but once, and tiie cotton crop will increaso annually in value without deteriorating the soil appreciably. Wo know of but one planter who uses two-horso plows extensively, and wo are satisfied that ho Ims doubled his cotton crop whenever he has turn ed under stubble and grass in the Bull. Lot our planters each buy at once one plow for this purpose, ami if ho turns under his stubble next month for cotton land next year, he will nev er fall to do it every year. - * • Hulun for Hunk CutUuirr* The following rules are recom mended to the attention of those who do business at tho banks. Tney will be the means of saving a great deal of time and annoyance—by not following them: 1. If you have any business with a hank put it off until throe o’clock, or, if possible, a little later, as it look* more businesslike to rush in as the bank is closing. 2. Never put stamps on your checks before you get to the bank, but give the teller two cents, and ask him to lick it ami cancel it for you ; the tel ler expects to lick all the stamps, and it is a source of disappointment to him when people insist on doing it themselves, and will save him buy ing his lunch. In depositing money try and get it upside down and wrong end fore most, so that the teller may have a little exorcise in straightening it up before counting it. •1. It is best not to take your bank book with you, but call at another time and have it entered. You can thus make two trips to the bauk where one would answer. 5. If a check is made payable to your order, be careful not to endorse it before handing it to the teller, but let him return it to you and wait while you indorse it; this helps to pass the time, and is a pleasure and relief to ttie teller. G. You can generally save time when making a deposit by counting down your money to the teller, as you can nearly always count more speedily and correctly than lie can. 7. If you make a deposit of SIOO and give a check for s‘>o, it is a good thing to call frequently at the bank and ask how your uceount stands as it impresses the officers favorably with your business qualifications. 8. Never keep any record when your notes full due, and then, if they are protested, censure the bank for not giving you notice. 9. Always date your checks ahead, it is a never-failing sign that you keep a good balance in bank; or, if you do not wish it generally known that you arc doing a good business, do hot deposit your money until about tlie time you expect your cheek will be in. 10. In depositing money never make out a deposit ticket. The tel ler lias the blanks in his ease for that purpose, and expects to fill them out himself. It annoys him to have you offer to do it; besides, if others are waiting, it gives them a chance to exercise patience, which is a great virtue. 11. In receiving money from a tel ler, never say in advance how you want it, but hand back each note separately, and ask him to break it. A strict observance of the foregoing rules will make your account desira ble for any bank, and make you a general favorite with all the bank of ficers. We met a successful vice planter at llalton, who stated that he did not believo in I’oor Richards or Cinein natus, and that, while lie had never touched a plow, he had never failed to carry his silk umbrella in the field with him in summer. That man is not a demagogue. We believe him. The worst phase in the defence of Beecher is the speech of the national tear shedder at tho temple in Lon don. Brother Shearman ought to be thrown Jto tho crocodiles; his tears are decidedly on the crocodile order. Brother Shearman Is voracious rat her than veracious. Miss Oljve Logan gushes amusing ly over tho negro waiters at Long Branch. “Some of them,” stie says, in u letter to the Graphic, “ore not merely handsome—they are distin guished looking. Fine thin lips, aquiline noses, shining, wavy, ebon locks—these are all positive adjuncts of beauty; and the complexions of many are in no degree darker than those of the Spaniards and Mexicans whom they serve.” The waiter at her table “is one of those soft, kind, restful Southern negroes whom we nil love. 'He puts mo in mind of my old mammy,’ said a Southern lady the other day. She did not mean her mother, but she meant her foster mother, in whose black breast she found the fount of life. Ho is so kind, so obliging, so gentle.” [Miss Olivo hod better marry a nigger waiter or hackman at, once, uml end her gushes .—Petersburg Nr. ics.] Don’t be too hard on the old girl. Who knows her anguish, and maybe the best she can do is to tako one of tho gentlemen so touchingly de scribed by her. I'lrkctt at IHStyitnirg. The chivalrous Gen. George H. Pickett, of Virginia, whose death was recently announced, was one of the most gallant and effective division commanders that the late war devel oped. At tho battle of Gettysburg, on the third day of the fight, Gen. Lee, having been successful In his attempts to break tho Federal wings, concluded to throw a heavy column of infantry against Cemetery Hill, the enemy’s center, capture their guns and turn them on either wing of their army, when tho defeat of Gen. Meade would necessarily follow. The troops to do this work, upon the ac complishment of which the battle, and most probably tho Confederacy, depended, must be men stern as tiie heroes of Thermopylie und Ballakla va; going to death as lover to his bridal bod; leaping to the fray with tho courage of lions in their hearts. And from all his army of battle tried veterans whom did the immortal Lee select to make this desperate charge, and whom to lead them? A gallant son of Virginia, the eloquent John Estln Cooke, thus tells of tho charge and those who so gallantly made it: For tho hard work ut hand, Pick ett’s division of Virginia troops, which had just arrived and were fresh, was selected. These were to be supported by Heth’s division of North Carolina troops, under Gen. Pettigrew, who was to move on Pick ett’s left, and a brigade of Hill's, un der Gen. Wilcox, was to cover the right of the advancing column and protect it from a Hunk attack. The advance of the charging col umn was preceded by a tremendous artillery fire, directed from Seminary Ridge at tho enemy’s left and centre. This began about an hour past noon, and tho amount of thunder thus loos ed will be understood from the state ment that Lee employed 145 pieces and the enemy replied with so in till 225 guns—all discharging at tho same time. For nearly two hours this frightful hurly-burly continued. While this artillery duel was in progress the charging column was being formed on the west of Semina ry Ridge, opposite the Federal centre on Cemetery Hill. Pickett drew up his line with Kemper’s and Garnett’s brigades in front and Armstead’s brigude in rear. Tho brigade under Gen. Wilcox took position on the right, and on tiie left was placed tlie division under Pettigrew, which was to participate in the charge. The force numbered between twelve and fifteen thousand; but, as will bo seen, nearly in the beginning of tho action Pickett was left alone, and thus his force of about five thousand was all that went forward to pierce the centre of the Federal army. The opposing ridges at this point are about one mile asunder, ana over this space Pickett moved at tho word his line advancing slowly, and per fectly “dressed,” with its red buttle fiags flying and the sunshine darting from the gun barrels and bayonets. Tho two armies were silent,, concen trating their whole attention upon tills slow and ominous advance of men who seemed in no haste and re solved to allow nothing to arrest them. When the column had reach ed a point about midway between the opposing heights the Federal artille ry suddenly opened a furious tire upon them, which inflicted consider able loss. This, however, had no effect upon the troops, who continued to advance slowly in the same excel lent order, without exhibiting any desire to return tlio lire. It was impossible to witness this steady and well ordered march under heavy fire without feeling admiration for the soldiership of the troops who made it. When shell tore gaps in tlio ranks the men quietly closed up, and the hostile front advanced in the same ominous silence toward the slopo where the real struggle, all felt, would soon begin. They were within a few hundred yards of the hill when suddenly a rapid cannon fire thundered on their right, and shell and euunister from fifty pieces or artillery swept the Southern line, enfilading it, and for an instant throwing the right into some disorder. This disappeared at once, however. The column closed up aiui continued to advance unmov ed toward the height. At last the moment came. The steady “common time” step had be come “quick time;" this had chang ed to “double quick;” then the col umn rushed headlong at the enemy’s breastworks on the slope of the lull. As thev did so, the real thunder be gan. A fearful musketry fire burst forth and struck them in the face, and this hurricane© scattered the raw troops of Pettigrew as leaves are scat tered by a wind. That whole portion of tlio line gave way in disorder and tied from the field, which was strew ed with their dead; and, ns Wilcox had not moved so as to keep up, the Virginians, under Pickett, were left alone to breast tlio tempest which had now burst upon them in ail its furv. They returned the fire from the breastworks in their front with a heavy volley, and then, with loud cheers, dashed at the enemy’s works, which they reached, stormed ami took liossession of it at the point of the bayonet. Their loss, however, was frightful. Gen. Garnett killed ; Gen. Armistead fell, mortally wound ed, as he leaped on the breastworks, cheering and waving his hat; Gen. Kemper was shot and disabled, and the ranks of the Virginians were thinned to a handful. The men did not, however, pause. The enemy had partiully retreated from their first line of breastworks to a second and stronger one, about six ty yards beyond, and near the crest, and here the Federal reserve, as Northern writers state, was drawn up “four deep.” This line, bristling with bayonets and cannon, the Vir ginians now charged, in the desper- ate attempt to storm it with the bay onet and pierce, in a decisive man ner, the center of the Federal army. But tho work was too great for their powers. As they made their brave rush they were mot by a concentrat ed fire full in their faces, and on both flanks at the same moment. This fire did not so much cause them to lose heart, as literally hurl them back. Before it the whole charging column seemed to melt and disappear. The bravest now saw that further lighting was useless—that the works In their front could not be stormed and, with the frightful fire of the enemy still tearing their lines to pieces, the poor remnants of the brave division ret routed from the hill. As they fell back, sullen, like bull dogs from whom their prey had been snatched just as it was In their grasp, tiie enemy pursued them with a de structive fire both of cannon and musketry, which mowed down large numbers, if large numbers, indeed, can be said to have been left. The command hail been nearly an nihilated. Three generals, fourteen field officers and three-fourths of tiie men were dead, wounded and pris oners. Tho Virginians had done all that could bo done by soldiers. They had advanced undismayed into the foetis of a fire unsurpassed, perhaps, in the annuls of war; had fought bay onet to bayonet; had left the ground strewed witli their dead; und the small remnant who survived were now sullenly retiring, unsubdued; and if repulsed, not “whipped.” Hueli was the last charge at Gettys burg. Lee had concentrated in it all his available strength, it seemed. When it failed, the battle und the campaign failed with it. Notice.
