A goat followed a Louisville- girl two miles the other day, and she was Anally obliged to rush Into a house to escape the wrath of the infuriated animal.

Its river system offers natural advanta ges for them, and along the proposed route there are small streams, flow ing each way, that can be utilised for the object In view. Col. W. T.

Through eating cheese purchased from a grocery store in Clark town ship, near Rahway, N.

English has been appointed by Gov. Ingersoll, of Connecticut, to fill the unexplred term of the de ceased Senator Ferry. This is a good selection, and will give gener al satisfaction. Ex-Gov. English is a true Democrat, and a man of ability and broad views, and his appoint ment will doubtless be concurred in by the Legllature, and the action of the Governor in his selection confirm ed. If so, he will hold the office un til March, 1879. Hihskt Got says tho contest for Speaker ls.between himself and Kerr, with the ohjances in his favor. He expects to get New York and Ohio solid in the Caucus and to divide In diana and Missouri with Kerr, and will have Illinois, Michigan, Kentuc ky, and the New England Democrats. He says Randall will get Pennsylva nia and some of the Southern States; that Kerr's strength lies in the West only and that he will divide those with him. Me**. Thirty counties in Tennessee have 47,574 men and 70,780 dogs! The peo ple of that will probably pay this year $4,000,000 to supply dogs. Giles county returns 7,200 dogs. Last year these worthless and de structive ours killed in the county of Giles 1,750 sheep. In Cheatham coun ty there are 780 men and 1,999 dogs-- three dogs to one man, and the con stant complaint in that county is, “there is no money in the country.” No law is more imperatively need ed in Georgia, than one that will im pose a tax on dogs. Fix a tax of five dollars per head on doge, and we will have large sheep farms in a tew years. The shepherd and the shepherd dog will add vastly to the annual revenues of Georgia land owners.

Lonis, Mo. Guijmaiiufacturesof wood and ve hicles, are situated In a coimtry abounding in tlie (greateet variety of woods of the greatest value. No sim ilar area of territory in the world Is moro blessed with navigable streams that are never clogged by ice. Manu factures arc destined to absorb the greater part of Southern capital. No nation on earth can be wealthy and Influental that relies alone on its ag riculture. The almost universal financial embarrassments of South ern planters will force the most ener getic to bond their energies to other pursuits. No pursuit offers better In ducements than the varied manufac turing enterprises that are destined to lift the South to its proper place, j and make our people again prosper-1 ous, cnergetieand contented. The standing army of the German empire for I7G will consist of the fol- i lowing forces : 174 regiments and 375 j detached commands of infantry, of j all classes, with 9,am commissioned officers, 274,7J.G non-coipniissioned of ficers and privaieymsufg eons, 181 paymasters, and.4W gihuunlths; 93 regiments of eavalrv, with 2,357 offi cers, fit,o6B non-commissioned officers and privates, 292 surgeons, W> pay masters, 452 veterinary surgeons, a large number of gunsmiths and Bad dlers,and62,s9l horses; 38regiments of artillery, with 2,311 officers, 15,876 non-commissioned officers and pri vates, 170 surgeons, H 9 paymasters, 116 veterinary surgeons, 29gudsmfths, and 14,875 horses; 18 battalions of pioneer, 1 railroad regiment,,,and 1 railroad company, with 40u officers, 10.339 non-commissioned officers arid privates, 40 surgeons, 22 paymasters, and 20 gunsmiths; the train consists of 18 battalions and 1 comjMiny, with 213 officers, 5,050 non-commissioned and privates, 24 surgeons, 19 paymas ters, 20 veterinary surgeons, and 2,- 457 horses. Resides the above there are “particular formations” and nu merous unattached officers, surgeons, &c. Elsewhere will be found a letter frtim the correspondent of tho Onta rio county (N. Y.) Journal, written from this city. Gradually the re sources of Georgia are becoming known, and Columbus, particularly, seems to be attracting attention. Courage in our adversity is wbnt we need. After specie resumption takes plaoe our lands will inevitably rise in value, and to-day good lands in Georgia offer the finest investment to the capitalist. If by specie resump tion and the National Bank system tho debtor classes are to bo summari ly and arbitrarily robbed, let every farmer avail himself of the laws of the land. In all things obey the laws. Senator Ferry.— The Cincinnati Enquirer says : “The new Vice Pres ident and prospective President, in ease of Grant’s death, Senator Ferry, of Michigan ,>Hopubl lean although he is, has sound views on the finance question. He is in favor, aeoording to a recent interview, of the substitu tion of greenbacks for National Hank notes. He world inorenso the circu lating medium to tifWO.i* >O,OOO, and! let the oountry grow up to specie. If Mr. Ferry will |carry out these views he will have the support of the great majority of the people, irrespective of party.” The New York Sun says: We have no idea that anv bill loaning the ■ credit of the United States tn the Texas Pacific, or any other eorj>oration. will pass at. the ooming session. The dav for that sort of business is i>ast. instead of granting new subsidies to till the tickets of private speculators, the majority of rhe House will be dis txised to inquire into nnd expose thoroughly tne shameful corruptions and swindles whicli previous legisla tion of this kind was intended to cover. . The virtuous North has' become spasmodically honest, pure, and strict constructionists of the Consti tution since it is proposed to* grant Government aid to develop South ern enterprises. Hut how is it going to smooth over the manifestly ruffled “constitution,” when it reflects that the General Government has granted aid to the North to tire extent of $175,000,000, while the South has only received $10,000,000? We don't favor the money subsidy asked for by Tom Scott because another corporation agrees to build the road with the land subsidy alone. But. the Gov ernment should aid the Great Wes tern Canal, tiro Mississippi levees should be protected by Government aid, and the South receive its just 3hare. The ery for retrenchment ill becomes the organs of the Bondhol ders who demand specie resumption in 1871). - --—w What we may expect if the present "tendency to the one man i>ower is continued—the practical obliteration of State lines and State sovereignty. In the Republic of France this is the result of a eefrtrnlßSed republic, as the following will attest : Parts. Nov. 27.—The Journal Offl clel to-day says that the Governor of Paris, after a consultation with the Council of Ministers, has resolved to prevent all meetings of a character to exolte disorders. This is evidently aimed at Paul Caaaagnae's recent Bonapartist speech utUelleville, and a Radical counter demonstration now organizing here. We may also expect someth inglike the following announcement, substi tuting “felegriipTr lines” for “railway > ltses“f ! ’ All the railway linesof Upper Italy have been purchased by the Govern ment for *i.<mn.oon. MfTTKII IIIOM Tin: MOUTH. Coi.gllßUH, Oa,, Nov. 8, 1875. Jvear Jouriml: My last letter was dffcriptivegily. In this I hope to , paint out tO'Ycur many readers the j situation of the jiecple here, and par-! i tioularly those engaged iu agrfcul-. i tural pursuits. I tlnij the great seOret of their noc suecess, as farmers, edits Is ts in two buds: First, they are possessed at too much land, consequently much of this land Is non-productive; second ly, their persistence In raising cotton only. As land owners you may think they are wealthy, when I inform you i that one thousand acres Is a small farm, comparatively speaking, for many possess three, live, seven and often ten thousand acres. As u na tural consequence, in their' present condition, but little of this is in act ual use. While this Is the fact, it is also true that, their taxes on the whole have to he paid, and at the end of the season, notwithstanding their rigid economy, they are in debt. How to remedy this evil is the ques tion with which we propose to deal, and at the"same time point blit to our friends North, they cannot only ben efit themselves, {but relieve their friends In the South. And to get tills idea properly before the people of the North, I will say that la muny eases these large land holders arc willing to sell for a nom inal sum, and in some cases give al ternate sections to those who would i settle on t heir lands. You will read ily see by this liberal policy wherein : they, as’ well as those who cornel amongst them, arc mutually bene- j fitted. It is uwell known fact that funning ! in Western New York does not pay H | jier cent, on the amount invested. I j speak now of farms that are devoted to legitimate agriculture only. There are exceptions, and these exceptions are found only where the farmer cul tivates fruit. This, too, is not ulwuys certain ; so that, on an average, f> per cent, is more than an average Income for the amount invested. Now let us take a Southern view of | this subject. Here you invest iu a farm, say of two hundred acres, at *ls per acre, which will lie *3,000 prin cipal. Add to that for Incidentals ; *I,OOO. Here you have, all told, four i thousand dollars invested iu an im proved farm of two hundred acres. You stock uud furnish it with all improved agricultural implements. Now you ask, what shall wo raise on this farm if cotton don’t pay? Well we will tell you. Corn is worth —I quote from the Columbus papers wholesale prices— “yellow corn *1.07, white *1.10.” But, you ask, how man' - bushels do they raiso to tho • acre? We answet, an average of 20. Well, if tliis is so, why do not I farmers raise corn instead of cotton? i We eau only account for this by re marking that habit has much to do with this; besides the class of labor! here was educated in the cotton field —hence habit with them ©iterates j just as it docs on the owner of the-; land. But in this letter I make no : reference to this class of laborers. I atn addressing men who work their own land with their own hands, and who work intelligently. As to the markets, oats arc selling for 85 to 90 cents per bushel; wheat, is not quoted, from the fact, that farmers only raise enough for their own use. Just here we would rCmark that if farmers would pay more at tention to the production of small grain and grapes, their yearly ac count would stand much better tlmn they do under the cotton yoke. Not only this, by rotation In cram they would be improving, rather than im poverishing, their land. It. remains for the Northern farmer ' to set tho example as to the mode of culture that will pay. In this remark we do not wish to be understood as intimating that the Southern farmer has not tho intelligence to see or practice this tnodo of farming. My observation leads me to a diliorent conclusion, for in my intercourse with tho people of the South I find the farmer well informed, welleduoar ted and refined ; at the same time wc find, him iu love with his snow-white fields and the pursuits of his ances tors, and slow to accept any change— the (in my opinion) banc of his ex istence. I have stated that the average yield of corn is twenty bushels to the acre. Now remember' that the laud on which this corn is raised has; been impoverished by a succession of cot ton crops—perhaps Tor half a century or more. What, would lie the con dition of the Northern farms.under similar treatment? Why, could vou not sprout a black eyed pea? Yet this laud produces 25 bushels of corn to the acre. The few fields that are properly cultivated, produce 65 nnd as higli as 75 bushels per acre. Where wheat is sown, thirty bushels is con sidered a fair yield. Vegetables of all kinds grow in abundance and most luxurious. Again, farmers are in debt -in fact, never have been out of debt since the war. They must borrow, and no ni|in or bank will lose money on mort gages, for land has no price; but cot ton commands the cash, and banks will loan money to all wtro raise that staple. A man says. “I want one thousand dollars: ' 1 am planting twenty acres'of cotton ; I expect so many bales.” “Sir, you can have it.” This is another reason for \Vearing the cotton yoke. I trust I jiavc been just in my re marks. to ttie Southern people as well as' to those of the North who contem plate migrating to this delightful cli mate, where, if men would use the Xre industry and eoouoray that force ircumstauees compel them to use iin their Northern homes, fortunes ‘could he made with much lees labor. Yours, itc., XXX. Mr. Penih.eton on the Future. —In the letter of Hon. George H. Pendle ton, to the State Central Committee of Pennsylvania, was the following paragraph: The success of the Democratic par ty will result in a currency stable in amount, fixed in value, regulated in volume neither by arbitrary laws nor I by the eaprice or even judgment of ‘ Congressmen or hankers, but by those laws which commerce imposes upon all its instrumentalities, ani^ul timately convertible into coin, ami the knowledge Unit this result will follow, will, in the meantime, restore ,eontldeuee, revolve business, and put. into healthful motion Hie now dor ! mant energies hnn activities of our [ people, ~— ; * BabAk’R. —Of this individual an exchange refreshingly says: The dispatches this morning draw the circle of the St. Louis whiskey ring alnmilligiy close'to the White House.
