Thc Savannah Advertiser and the

Ou tof twenty one Gorman paper*
in lowa, twenty are Democratic.
I’aktv feeling runs high in the
North Carolina Constitutional Con
vention, and much bilterucss has
cropped out.
It is said that Messrs. Thiers and
Gambetta have agreed upon a com
mon programme. If this bo true, the
Imperialists will have a rough time
In Franco.
Tiie name and family of Cavour
have become extinct by the death of
tho Marquis Beusa do Cavour,
nephew of tho most Illustrious Minis
ter that Italy ever had.
The fast mail which left Cleveland
twenty minutes behind time arrived
ut Chicago five minutes ahead of
time. The engineer fainted as ho
pulled tho engine into tho depot. A
portion of tho distance was made at
the rate of seventy miles an hour.
Tukooouk Tilton lectured to a largo
audience at Port Jorvis on September
15th. Mr. Tilton's lecture was enti
tled “The Problem of Life,” and .it
was a brilliant and very florid compo
sition. Pecuniarily successful, it
proved that Tilton made money by
making himself disgracefully noto
rious.
The Alabama Constitutional Con
vention have forever put aside the
idea of secession. Tho following
section was adopted unanimously:
“The people of this State accept us a
finally established fact, that from
the federal Union there can bn no
secession of any State.”
——- • ♦- • -
It is estimated that there are 25,000
Indians encamped near ltod Cloud
Agency, awaiting the opening of
Council which is to decide upon the
liluck Hills question. Each head of
a family owns on an average fifty
ponies. Those are all in healthy con
dition, and the Indians themselves
well clothed and healthy looking.
The equinoctial storm wus very so
bero on tho Gulf. At Galveston on
tho 18th hist., the gale was especially
severe and much damage to proper
ty and lose of life resulted. Tho en
tire city has been inundated, Its har
bor improvements swept away, and
thirty persons are known to have
been drowned.
A cohuesponoent of the News and
Courier reports “the best acre of cot
ton the world ever produced.” It
has 7,200 stulks, averaging 8(1 bolls to
tho stalk, which will give something
over four bales. Tush! friend, do you
not know that Georgia Is always
ahead of the other Southern States?
Mr. Warther, of Washington county,
made five bales per acre.
The three greatest grain producing
countries in the world are Russia, tho
United States and France, in tho or
der named. The statistics of 1870
show that Russia produced 460,000,000
bushels of wheat, the Uidted States
286,000,000, and France about the
same, Russia exported one-eighth of
tier grain, the United States one
fourth, and France none. Tho United
States, however, grows an enormous
amount of corn, which the others do
not.
Han it occurred to our readers that
the Times was the first paper in Geor
gia to receive and publish tho news
eoucerning Judge Crawford’s ap
pointment? In this case the Atlanta
paj>ers will have to got Atlanta news
from Columbus.
The Times also published the news
concerning the Washington county
insurrection before any paper in
this section and as soon as it lias
been publisher! in Atlanta.
The Times intends to keep wide
awake.
Grant, Sherman, and Hooker were
present at the annual reunion of tho
Army of tho Cumberland at Utica,
N. Y. Is thisjproper for tho President
of the United States? Suppose there
wore several celebrations held in
England over tho conquest of Ire
laud or Scotland, and tho King or
Prince of Wales, accompanied by the
Oommauder-in-Chief of the Armies
of Great Britain were to be regularly
present iu order to aid in celebrating
tlie conquests of Britons by Britons ;
would it be appropriate ?
Colonel H. related to us, the other
day, the following Incident: The Col
onel was in command of ids regiment
at the time of the surrender of Gen.
Lee at Apiomattox C. H. The news
of the surrender was known to him
before the private soldiers became
aware of it, but tho troops of his
couiuiaud were busily engaged in
throwing up retrenchments and dig
ging ditches. One of his men seemed
to be es|>eeiully Industrious, and all
expected a battle shortly. Finally an
orderly rode by and said to this sold
ier, •The nrmy has surrendered.”
“Which army?” asked tho soldier,
“Grant's ?” "No,” replied the order
ly, ,i Geh. Lee's.” “You are ad and
liar!” said the indignant Confederate,
and he plied his spado more vigor
ously than ever.
The New York Times affirms that
when Grant bus spoken lie lias meant
all he said, whereupon the Boston
Post remarks that “if he never meant
more than he said he hasn’t meant
much.”
I liurlr- Francis Adam-.
Few men In public life will leave
behind them a fairer record of use
fulness and honor than Mr. Adams.
In declining to become a candidate
I for Presidential honors, the venera
| ble statesman writing from Quincy,
Mass., says : “I gee nothing in pub
lic life Just now which promises hap
py results within a short time.”
Truly there is nothing in the ncur
■ political future which promises to
make the place occupied by the
President one of happiness. The
hope that the Democracy will succeed
the present reign of corruption und
robbery under the guise of law, is a
happy augury for tho people, and
especially for tho people of the South.
But tho next Democratic President
will have duties to execute, wrongs to
right, and villainies to unearth, which
will try the nerve of the stoutest pa
triot and firmest man. Our next
President should be a man of iron will
bat honest heart; one who will be
neither dead 'to sympathy nor alive
to present “happy results.” He
should be o man known in the past,
alive to tho needs of the present, able
to provide for tho contingencies of
the future. Mr. Adams’ letter shows
that he is not that man.
We endorse the following proposi
tion copied from the Alexandria (Va.,)
Gazette. We hope the Legislature of
Georgia will endorse it. The .State
of Massachusetts adopted a similar
Constitutional admendmeut several
years ago. It will do more to make
tlie rising generation of colored
people good citizens than any other
one amendment:
It lias liamieued here, however,
that while tlie colored girls throng
the schools, tlie boys neglect, to a
very great extent,,- the opportunities'
afforded them with so much sacrifice,
by tlie white property holders, and
prefer to lounge about tire streets
and suburbs rather than acquire an
education which will lit, thorn for
i their future duties and responsibili
ties. That they should thus grow up
in ignorance, .and then have power
to dispose of our lives and property,
as voters and jurors, cannot be toler
ated, and a constitutional amend
ment providing that no man born
since tho war shall be entitled to
vote unless ho can read or write, is
the only remedy. It is certainly
worthy of consideration.

The New York fast mail train of the
16th inst. carried live tons mail mat
ter.
The Herald '* correspondent lias
tills item:
During tho run from Altoona to
this city a couple of individuals were
knocked down by approaching tho
limited mail when the mail bags were
being thrown out.
The first victim was holding up an
umbrella at Lancaster, and ids fall
and confusion were great. Tho sec
ond sufferer was at Tyrone, where a
young man, who was gaping at ttie
train with Ids hands in his pockets,
was struck and described a somer
sault as Ids legs were cut from under
him. When the heavy weight of a
plethoric mail bug is considered and
the train’s impetus is addcd.it will
be readily conceived that the blow is
no ilea bite.

[,V. Jr. Jour, of Com.
We are glad to see that a proposi
tion has been introduced into tho
Convention to elect Supreme ami Cir
cuit Court Judges, Chancellors and
Solicitors, by the General Assembly,
as provided by the constitution of
1819. It would, perhaps, he still bet
ter that the Governor should appoint
tln-so, and all judicial officers, by and
with the advice and consent of the
Senate. Huntsville (Ala.) Democrat.
The only way to avoid tho evils of
popular election through early con
ventions is to make the body or elec
tors as largo as possible. Let the
whole State elect Supremo Judges.
Let the State be divided into three or
four divisions, and let each division
elect three or four Judges, who may
select their circuits within the divi
sion which elects them! In this
manner wo give tlie Judges a largo
constituency covering a broad area,
and secure Judges who have a State
reputation. To take from the people
the right to elect Judges, would, we
fear, endanger the proposed Consti
tution.— Mobile Register.
San Francisco Call: Recent news
from Washington looks as if annex
ation of a part of Mexico was really
seriously thought of. The dividing
line of tho United States and Mexico
is now the Rio Grande; but in the
name and in tlie interests of a higher
civilization, there are many who are
not at all averse to taking possession
of tlie whole of Mexico. They desire
to make the Pacific Ocean and the
Isthmus the southern boundary of
the United States.
In a letter which we print this
morning Mr. Nordhoff gives an in
teresting review of Georgia polities.!
Tho Republican party lie describes |

Federal office-holders and those |
looking for Federal offices, support
it. The Democrats are involved in
dissensions among themselves, and
in the next election there are so
many candidates for the Democratic
nomination for Governor that an in
dependent candidate is pretty sure to
be run.—-V. F. Herald.
The Government has become an
Instrument of the grossest injustice,
all debtors are loaded with an obli
gation it was never contemplated
they should assume, a large percent
age is added to every debt, and such
must become the demand for gold to

fices, general distress and bankrupt
cy may be expected. Cut. Enquirer.
Yale and Harvard have long stood
alone among American Colleges, but
under tlie rule of Dr. McCosh, Prince
ton is making rapid strides towards
them. With a Freshman class of
125, a higher standard for admission,
additions of a million and a quarter
to its endowment within seven years,
and a fair prospect for half a million
more, tho Presbyterian institution in
New Jersey begins to have a claim to
bo rated nearer its Congregational
and Unitarian rivals. — Heir York Tri

The Basis of Cphkency.—The real

TIIE TIMES: TUESDAY MORNING, SEPTEMBER 21, 187;).
I.lmr hi h fertilizer.
The season is approaching for the
preparation of the soil for next year’s
seed. This, and the solectlon of the
kinds best adapted, are of sufficient
importance to occupy tlie tnlml of the
farmer, and to a greater extent than
is occasionally given, when it Is con
sidered that Inferior or unadapted
seed will produce, as a rule, au infe
rior crop. Tims to sow wheat on a
soil which contains no lime or marl
-either naturally or artificially—is
sure to bring a poor return. A
• remarkable instance of this took
place in Ireland after the famine.
It b fact well known by more intel
gent farmers in that country that
tho extensive Central plain which
occupies the surface land at the foot
of tlie mountains contains no lime
or marl, and that dressings with these
materials were at stated times applied
when the culture of wheat was in
tended. The product from an aver
age year was twenty barrels tier acre
< lrish), or about sixty bushels to the
English acre. lifter the famine, tlie
poverty und want of heart to do their
best by the land compelled those who
remained on their farms, unsubdued
by the famine and pestilence, to omit
the usual application of lime to the
soil, and tho consequence was that,
instead of twenty barrels per Irish
aero, tile yield was from five to seven
barrels, being a reduction of from
two-thirds to three-fourths. Another
instance occurred in the case of three
farmers from Suffolk, who took a
tract of land pf about six hundred
acres at Sligo, enclosed witli a wall
as a park. In a letter from one of
them after he had been there a few
years, he stated that they were about
to abandon their holdings, as the
land would not grow wheat for wunt
of lime, of which there was none to
be obtained in tlie neighborhood,
while tlie soil contained not a par
ticle of that material, and there was
none within reasonable reach of their
farms. In such (vises as this the
uppllcati on of lime isrequired to be
renewed frequently, because either
lime or marl will sink into almost
any soil, especially light, so that the
process of renewing the aplication
of these materials is very expensive.
There is, however, a drawback to
this favorable account of the effects
of the application of lime to tho soil,
namely: that it is impossible to over
lime; that it produces larger crops
for a certain number of years, after
which tlie ret urn falls away until it
becomes less than before tlie lime
was applied, so that it appears to have
exhausted instead of enriched the
soil. In accounting for this adverse
effect of what is admitted on all hands
to be a benefit, tlie chemists state j
that lime acts on all the organic part!
of the soil, by which it is rendered
more serviceable to the growth of
plants. On the other hand, the pro
portion of organic matters in the soil
gardually diminishes under the pro
longed action of the lime, and tints
tiie soil becomes less rich in those
substances of organicortgin on which
its fertility to a certain extent de
ixinds. Tho same effect is produced
on tin- mineral matter in the soil, j
when there is abstracted from it a I
more abundant supply in proportion
with its immediate effect perse. Un- j
less, therefore, tin adequate proper- j
tlon of those matters are supplied in
other manures, the soil will necessa
rily become exhausted to such an ex
tent as to counteract or neutralize
tlie action of tlie lime. Tlie way,
therefore, to prevent this effect, is to
manure largely witli farm-yard ma
nure and saline substances, mid thus
return or repay to tlie soil whatever
muy have been extracted too speedily
or too copiously from it.
The Cot ton Crop ot IK" I-" .V
New Orleans, September 17.— -The |
committee of tlie National Cotton Ex- i
change issued their report to-day, j
making the total crop for tlie year |
ending September 1, 1875, 3,827,845
bales, of which 2,674,448 were export
ed to foreign ports, and 1,260,473 were
taken by homo spinners, including
126,550 net for Southern consumption
Tlie sea island crop was 16,687 bales,
including 8,139 in Florida, 1,074 in
Georgia, 7,308 in South Carolina, aud
186 in Texas. The average weight of
the crop was 468 pounds per bale, and
of tlie sea island cotton 302 pounds
per bale. Tho overland movements
of cotton by Northern routes were
456,952 bales.
Should there be no choice of Presi
