A. M., author of “The Eclectic Series

It presents in readily accessible shape
the results of the late census, and what

works. It represents the labor of years

Cartersville, June 21, 1875.
Dear Times : After a lengthy ab
sence and silenee, I am again before
your readers, and trust 1 may be able
to interest them with the Cartersville
news.
We are now in the midst of harvest,
and the farmers are well pleased with
the yield of wheat in this locality.
One of the most interesting religious
revivals wo have known for a long time
is now progressing in the Methodist
.Church at this plr*co. All denomina
tions take an active hand and the in*
terest deepens daily. Prominent among
the ministers engaged in the work are
to be noticed Mr. Jearld, the pu&top, R
11. Jones, W. W. Harris, Dr. W? 11.
Felton, and W. W. Leake, of the Meth
odist Church ; Theodoro Smith, of tb,
Presbyterian Church, and M. V. B.
Langford, R. B. Headen and E. S. V.
Briant, of the Baptist Church. Such
lively church members as B. F. Child
ers. J. J. Howard, and J. T. Owen are
also doing much to aid the cause.—
Many are asking for mercy. May the
good work progress until every sinner
is reached.
We are to have an election on the !
9th of July to ascertain if the people
desire the retail whisky shops closed or
not. We live in hope that King “ Al
ky,” may be dethroned in Cartersville.
You shall hear the result.
Col. Lewis Tumlin died on the 3d of
this month, and on the 13th, Mrs. Col
Tumlin, his daughter-in-law, died.
Trade is dull in our city.
Mr. John Johns has put up quite an
extensive Wood and blacksmith shop,
which is a valuable addition to Cartcrs
ville.
On Wednesday last Cartersville was
visited by a storm of wind, in
which the dust came in a volume, so
that it was impossible to see across one
of our streets. No serious damage. Bill
Crayton, however, will likely close bis
billiard saloon earlier after th is. We
had a good rain Friday evening.

Co;uli(iti of the Crops.
The Stale Agricultural Commission
er, Dr. Janes, has sent us his monthly
report for May, from which the follow
ing statistics are gathered :
From a general comparison of the re
turns of 111 counties that have report
ed, the following interesting information
is gleaned.
Corn. —There are 7 per cent more
acres planted in corn this year than last,
or 152,910 acres more than last year.
There is also an increase of 6 per cent,
in the amount of fertilizers used on
corn ; 08 per cent, of these compost. —
In preparation and time of planting,
there is a decrease of 3 per cent. A
large margin from the middle and lower
counties report the best distance for
corn 4x5, 3x7.[or 3xG—the upper coun
ties 3x4, 3x5 and 4x4.
Oats —The condition of this crop
May 15th throughout the State was 1
per cent, above an average. A large
majority who reported “ best variety ”
give preference to the Rust Proof, many
the Winter Grazing, wh le quite a num
ber prefer what they call the “Yellow,”
which may mean either* of the ab ve.
A large majority sow one bushel of seed
per acre, seme only one-half bushel,
and others as much as three bushels.
Wheat. —The acreage in wheat is
14 per cent, or 50.230 acres more than
last year; 5 per cent, more fertilizers
used on it, and the condition of the
crop May 15th, 1 per cent, above an
average. The varieties principally rec
ommended as successful are the Tappa
bannoek, Early Red, or Red May, in
the middle and lower counties, and the
Tappahannock and spring varieties in
northern counties. A large majority
sow one bushel or three-fourths that
quantity. A few sow more than one
bushel.
Clo Ver. —Theacrcage in clover is
7 per cent, larger than last year, while
its condition May 15th was 1 per cent,
below an average. Correspondents from
the middle counties report it best to sow
clone, either in fall or spring. In up
per counties it is sown either alone, or
with small grain, in spring principally,
but sometimes in September. An in
crease of only 1 per cent, in grasses is
reported. Correspondents almost unan
imously recommend the sowing of grass
seeds alone, either in iall or spring.
Cotton.— There is 5 per cent., or
80,150 acres less planted this year than
last. Preparation of the soil is reported
only two-thirds of 1 per cent, inferior
to last year, while 41 per cent, more
fertilizers are used, 52 per cent, of
which is compost. The condition of
the crop generally, May 15th, is two
weeks, late, and 3 per cent, below an
average.
The acreage in ground peas is 4 per
cent. greater than last year. Condition
May 15th, 2 per eent. below an aver
age.
Peaches are 1 1 per Qfmfc. below an
average. Nearly all killed in North
Georgia ; generally a full crop m the
middle and lower counties.
Apples, 331 per eent. below an aver
age.
Pears, 11 per cent, below an aver
age.
Small fruit, 7 per cent, below an av
erage.
Garden produets, 51 per cent, below
an averrge.
The Eartlrquake iu New CJrenada.
The report published Saturday mor
ning of a terrible earthquake in New
Grenada, by which sixteen thousand
lives were lost, is supplemented to-day
by details received from Panama, which
give a more graphic idea of the extent
and havoc of the visitation. The re
gion in which this earthquake occurred
has, especially of late years been sub
jected to violent shocks, by which towns
nave been destroyed and thousands of
lives lost, and embraces a vast volcanic
area, extending through Central Amer
ica and the northern portion of South
America. Of the earthquakes of for
mer times that which happened at Car
sacas, in Venezuela, in 1812, by which
12,000 lives were lost, is one of the
most notable, but it does not compare
with some of the earthquakes of the
old world. That which destroyed An
tioch, in 526 A, D, according to the.
historian Gibbon, caused the death of
250.000 persons. There were in the
city at the time, besides the resident
population, thousands of strangers, who
thronged the city attending the festival
of the ascension. Lisbon, Portugal,
was nearly destroyed by an earthquake
November 1, 1755, and within the space
of six miuutes sixty thousand persons
perished. This terrible catastrophe is
thus described :
“ A loud rumbling was followed al
most immediately by a fearful shock,
which demolished the principal build
ings of the city, and in the short time
of six minutes it is estimated that 60,000
persons were killed. The tide of the
sea Coast ran out rapidly, leaving the
bar perfectly dry, and as rapidly an
enormous wave, thirty feet in height,
rushed in again, sweeping everything
before it. The mountains in the neigh
borhood were shaken violently, deep fiss
ures rent in the valleys, crags toppled
over, and rocks hurled into the abysses,
bearing everything with them. Thou
sands of people lushed to the marble
quay which had just been constructed
at an enormous expense, when sudden
ly it sank, carrying its load with it, and
over the spot the water stood 600 feet
deep. All the shipping of the harbor
was sunk instantly, and hardly a vestige
of the life and prosperity of the famed
capital retrained.”
In this count! y earthquakes have of
late [years become familiar, but have
not been attended by such serious disas
ters as are recorded elsewhere. Califor
nia and other parts of the Pacific coast
have been shaken up considerably at
various times, the last, which occurred
a year or two ago, having caused con
siderable destruction of property in the
interior, with some loss of life. Sever
al slight earthquakes have also occur
red in New England and northern New
York The most important events of
tho kind, however, were the earth
quakes of New Madrid, in 1811 1812,
when over three hundreds of miles of
country, from the mouth of the Ohio
to that of the St. Frances, rose and
sank in undulations, lakes and fissures
being alternately formed and filled up.
i These shocks were both perpendicular
and horizontal, the latter being by far
the more disastrous in their effects.—
The incessant quakings were kept up
for several months, and the loss of prop
erty was enormous, while many persons
perished. —Baltimore Sun.
