CALHOUrTIIES: W. R. RANKIN, .... EDITOR. CALHOUN, GA: THUKSDAyTaPKIL 20. 1871. Farming. The antipathy to what is called hv ‘‘book farming,” that has prevailed to such an extent, among the tillers of the soil, is being rapidly exploded, and farming is being literally reduced to a science. So totally averse to receiving information upon the subject of Agri culture, have our farmers been, where such information has been communicated through the medium of newspapers, magazines, &c., that it is no wonder we are so far behind the spirit of the age; and, are in fact, mere tyros, as regards our knowledge of the farm, and what is necessary there. The truth is, we have either not been educated at all, or our education has been very defective. It argues a lack of common sense for any man to sot up that he can prosper and thrive—grow rich in any vocation— when experience plainly dictates the contrary. Intelligence is as essential to success in farming, as it is to success in any calling upon earth, and if you are not now satisfied of this fact, and have commenced to act accordingly, by giv ing your children the benefit of a liberal education, depend upon it, they will re alize the necessity, and feel woefully, their deficiency. Ten years ago, to have urged an ex penditure of from twenty-five to thirty dollars, in fertilizing agencies for one acre of land, with the promise of so largely an increased yield of products, as to be tar more remunerative, would have seemed as incredible as, forty-five years ago seemed transportation by steam. This opposition to what is vulgarly termed “book larnin,” must be done away, and you must go to work to real ize tho benefits of others’ experience. By reading, you may learn in a few min utes, what it took another a lifetime of labor to know, and which he has kindly offered you the advantage of, if you will but accept. Farmers of Gordon county, to you we appoal. Let your lights shine. Give others the benefit of your experience. Communicate your knowledge of farm ing through the columns of your county paper. We solicit letters of general in terest, from our farmer friends. We cordially propose to allow ample space for all communications upon tho subject of agriculture. Scientific, in telligent labor is essential to a full and proper developcment of the superior adaptability of our soil to the varied products of this climate. THE KTT-KLUX BILL. iVo Hope of itt Modification by the Senate. Wo give below the full text of the Ku-Klux bill as it finally pas ted the House. The only amendments to be looked for from the Senate are such as will render the measure even harsher nnd more proscriptive than in its pres ent shape : Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled.

An exchange gives the following re ceipt for killing a town Underrate your neighbors’ property, withhold your sup port from home mechanics and manu facturers, buy what you need elsewhere, in preference to bourn, and if you are in business, refuse to advertise.

An Important Decision.—Two weeks ago the Supreme Court deliverd one of the most important decisions of the session. We hare been intending to call attention to it before. The discharge of a bankrupt does not relieve his securites from liability on his paper. The discharge kills the debt as to him, but not as to bis securities. This is an exceedingly important deci tion, that our readers will do well to note. — Atlanta Constitution. " ~ SUMMARY ot Congressional business: Monday—Ku Klux. Tuesday—lvu Klux.
