THE DAILY TIMES. ColumbUM. <iu. TUESDAY SKITKMHKK 21. 1H75. K.MTA.HI!, I " ; C. H. WIILIAIM. I LARGEST DAILY CIRCULATION In ClUy nml üburh. Loiitoo Aloott luih icrnlu 60,0ga from her book*. Thc Savannah Advertiser and the Nt'icn have been consoliilated. 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. Pimi.ir oimmov. The vast majority.of tlie people are averse to Government interference in the Southern States, except as a last resort after every local effort to pre serve the peaoe lias proved abortive. [,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 | ns moribund—few whites, except I 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 satisfy contracts tbit ruinous sacri 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 bune.

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.
