It will^not diminish the interest in
these plants to know that one family of
thom, the Sarracenia, is probably our
best romerly for indigestion. If tho

bottle (as much UN can bo conveniently
got in) and then tho bottle be filled
with whisky, or other spirits, and a
tablospoonful of this tinoto.ro taken in

poao that ho must havo plantod his

plonty?of them on a clearod oypre83

during'tbo war. If ho wishcB to grow
tholA'successfully, lot him try tbom in
iryaob^.damp soil, any in his uoighbor
noou,in a part of a cypress pond, whero
tho black gum grows frooly, and not
dig until nftci- tho tops havo been killed
by tho frost. I am very sorry that I

better in that way. We havo recom
mended to plant pretty thiokly, but
I hero may'bo a question what is to bo
considered thick planting. Well, for
tho dwarf kinds ono pint of seed to
from fifty to sixty feet of double row.
Of tho largo growing kinds a pint of
,t. seed should plant from eighty to ono
? hundred feot of double row. Let tho
distance apart of tho rows.be about

pected to grow, whether it be ono, two,
three or four feet. 1
Irish potatoes aro, doubtless, already
planted,': in most cases, but thoy are
bI ill. in season, and if put in at once
may'make as good urops as thoso planted
earner". Choose, if possible, a good,
black, moist, but not wot soil, aud
mauuro liberally, avoiding, however,
too much crude stable manure if you
doBiro tubers of tho host quality. Wood
ashes, chip manure, rotten sawdust and
tho scrapingH of tho hoiiBO-yard aro ex
cellent for. thia ciop. Tho Early Boso
is tho best variety, so far as our experi

than any othor, that wo would not ac

Dodge, as that will save troublo and

one cause op southern poverty,
First, then, I assign as one of the
reasons of our oontinued poverty and
want of progress the faot, that 'wo do
not produce enough of what we eat or
drink, and buy too muoh on credit. To
present-an elaborcto argument in de
fense of this position would require a
volume. One or two practical faots
will suffice to prove my assertion true,
and the answer that ovorv farmer will
give when applying the idea to his own
case will corroborate these faots.
In 1859 <h6 south produced over 5,
000,000 bales of cotton of 400 pounds
oaoh, which sold at an avorago of eleven
cents per pound, realizing less than
?2(50,000,000.
In 1869 the cotton crop, of the south
was less than three and a half millions
of bales, four hundred pounds each,
and sold for an average of twenty-two
cents per pound, realizing over $800,
000,000.
The cotton crop of 1873 roached con-,
siderably beyond four millions of bales,
and sold for less than $275,000,000.
And this has been the history of our
crop annually in the past; havo we any
reason to antioipfite tnat similar effects
will not follow the same course in the
future ? Then if tho all cotton policy,
or a large cotton crop has actually
tended to impoverish us as a people,
who will assert that the same policy
will not have similar effects upon in
dividuals ?
On papor it cm to easily proven that
cotton, as a crop, will pay bettor than
any or all othor products. But these
figures are far m?ro unreliable than the
of t-abnscd labor of the country. There
is no qustion but that individual
farmoro, having Innds peculiarly
adapted to tho growth of cotton, can
net moro money growing cotton and
buying their breadstuff's and provender
than by cultivating a diversity of orops.
But it is an egregious error" to think,
that A, B, or O, oan do 00, theroforc
every southern farmer eon pursue tho
Bamocourso, anticipating tho some result.
Throngh n series of yoais, regardless
of tho price of cotton (I reiterate hero
what I havo often aetertcd before in
these pages), on uinoty-nino ont of
every hundred southern farms, it is
cheaper to grow onta for plow animals
than to haul corn from tbr? tvewraA.
depot, bocanwo naVa will follow corn
with no cost, but the seed nud harvost
ing, both of which can bo paid' for
every winter in tho mutton that can bo
fatted on I ho growiug orops; it is
cheaper to raise ail tho pork tho farm
or'a family oan consumo annually than to
buy bacon at ten cents por pound ; it is
ohoapor to grow a pound of wool, up to
a certain nuinbor of pounds, than tho
muuo numbor of pounds of cotton ; aud
it is ohoapor to grow anything that can
possbly bo growu upon tho farm thau
to buy it on a crodit.
Fow farmers understand proporly
what is meant by "buying 011 a orcdit.
Thoy know thoy get the articlo and pay
moro for it than if thoy paid tho cash ;
but thoy nover onco oalculate tho pre
mium and percentage thoy aro paying
for this privilcgo of getting time or
credit. Lot mo illustrate. The avor
ago farmer may raiso meat enough to
do him till tho 1st of April. By that
time ho has to bny ; but having no
cash, though good orcdit, he goes to
tho store and buys bacon at 15 cents
por pound, payablo 1st of November
following. Ho learns tho cash price is
121 cento por pound, but necessity com
pels him to buy on credit. Ho thus
pays 2* cents per pound "for tho priv!
lego of buying on a credit, on'ouo-sixth
the price to bo paid, which in timply
lGj per cent, por annum for the use of
money, But he buys in April, and has
to pay first Novomber, only eight
months' orcdit, and thus pays twonty
fivo per cent, per annum for tho usa of
money. What farmer can afford to do
this and live ? What is applicable to
bacon iB equally so to corn, hay, flour,
implements, mules, and every article
the farmer buys on a orcdit.
It is estimated that tho average in
crease of the agricultural wealth of tho
United States is about four per cent,
por annum The average increase of
agricultural wealth in any southern
state annually since the war baa not
been one per cent. Indeed, some of tho
states havo traveled the other road, and
aro now lost in the wilderness of debt;
and thoro is no moro potent cause for
this condition of things than that of
buying on a oredit the necessaries of
lifo to enable, them to grow cotton, and
this, too, very frequently at a cost that
exceeds i's market valno. Thoro is nn
infatuation about this cultivation of
ootton that amounts to an hnlluoinutioo.
Can thoro bo nothing invented to so far
disp&l it as to induce tho southern
farmer to livo moro within himself find
lees at tho moroy of tho Bhylocks of tho
land ??Cor. Rural Carolinian.
Thp. official report of tho Austrian
government respecting muniral instm
meids at tho Vienna exposition, declares
the Mason tr. Ha ml in Cabinet Organa to
be "tho most distinguished and praise
worthy instruments" of their class ;
praising in detail their power and reso
nance of tone, vnriety of combination
and solo effects; tiuo power of expres
sion ; smooth, even and sympathetic
tones, and thorough workmanship.
They were awarded tho first and high
est medal. Other Amerioan organs in
competition wera declared to bo far less
meritorious, the tones and workmanship
being both inferior. In comparison, it
was said : "Judged leniently, they do
not rise above a respectable modioority."
This was undoubtedly tho most expen
sive, thorough and competent compari
son such instruments ever mado. *
Uucko's Comet?Its i'vreuty-tbirrt
Vi*it Near at Hand.
Euoko's comet is noon to mako its
twouty lirnt recorded visit, Dr. Van
Aston has published hia ophemoris of
tho comet for the forthcoming return,
and it will teach its periholion on tho
18th of April. It will- bo nearest
tho earth about tho 4th of May, ap
proaching us within a distance of about
50,000,000 miles. Tho largor telescopes
will bo able pretty soon to doteot the |
presence of tho oelostial visitor.
Euoko's comet is not a remarkablo one.
It is r teloscopio oomet, and oonsista of
a circular patch of nebulus light some
what Condensed toward -tho center.
Though usually only visible through
the telescope, it is sometimes seen with
the naked eye, as, for instance, on ? its
appearance in 1828, v?hen it shono lko
a star of tho fifth magnitude. It is one
of the tailless comets, although on rare
occasions a tail has been discerned ex
tending like a faint brush toward the
sun, and also a similar appendage
branching out in an opposite direction.
This little oomet ia invested with a
special interest for terrestrial obBervors,
from the faot that its period is tho
shortest among those whose time of
revolution have been ascertained, for it
is only three years and a quarter in
completing its course. It performs ita
revolution within the boundaries of tbo
solar system, ite perihelion being be
tween tho sun and Mercury, and its
perihelion botween Jupiter and the
Asteroids.
Enoke's oomet, insignificant as it is,
has been of use to astronomers. When
at its nearest approach to Jupiter tho
niass of the huge planet was moro ac
curately determined by means of its
"oxoessivo perturbation." In the same
way wnen io was nearest Mercury, ic
was tho meana of detecting an error in
the computation of the mass of that
fiery little orb. Therefore, thero will
bo a warm' welcomo for. this erratic
member of tho system on itu next ap
ftroaoh to tho eattb. If wo cannot fol
ow its course among the stars with tho
unaided eye, we shall be glad to trace
its steps under the guidance of those
practical observers who aro ever on the
watch to imprison these flying visitantB
within teletoopio range, ? and alwaj b
ready to enlighten the world with the
result of their scientific skill.
A Horo of Ilalaklavn.
Scarcely the noxt thing in order, but
one of curious interest, is tho hero of
Balaklava, ono of tho immortal Six
Hundred who was in that fatal charge
of tho Light Brigado, of which Tenny
son sings in such strains as to keep it
forever in our memories. This horo
who h\B lived to tell tho tale was a
mcro lad, a private in tho regiment,
aud, resident now for some time in this
country, yields to tho desire of thoso
who had hoard him in private conver
sation, to give a public looturo, or,
properly spoaking, an account of his
experience A simple, uncultivated
fellow, thonjjh by v.o moans rudo in
language or manner, his description of
tho battlc-flold, and tho illustrations by
diagram upon tho black-board, wore both
spirited and imprersiveT Itnlidn't
-need much oratory to toll that story
when tho speaker had had such per
sonal oxperionco and subsequent con
tact with all that was left of tho noble
Six Huna rod. A cavalry saber, in-cd to
furthor tho illustration, gavo fioreo
suggestion and dramatio effect, to the
wholo. In tho courso of tho account,
Mr. Edgar?for this js-' tho hero's
name?read a correct copy, which ho
had obtained from Euglnud, of tho or
der from Lord Raglan to tho Earl of
Lue an which was so strangely misun
derstood. Ho says that tho Light
Brigade numbered 678 men "when it
wont down into tho Valley of Death."
Of this uumbor 195 answered at tho
noxt roll-call, though, including thoso
takon by the Russians, 2"J.r> escaped the
fearful carnago?4-1:3 being lost in tho
briof fight over the Russian fiold
pieces.
American Women.?It is a melancholy
fact, that American women havo degen
erated in point of health and physique,
until they havo becomo litorally a raco
of invalids. How sad i*. ic to look
around us and compare tho frail and
effeminate looking lady of to-day with
tho halo, hoarty and buxom Indies of days
gone by. To all suoh the lato discovory
of Dr. Walkor, of California, whioh is
known as Vinegar Bittors, is a priceless
boon indeed. For this class of diseases
it is certain and safe, and any lady, old
or young, can tako it with entire confi
dence in tho result, and thus avoid
what to thousands is a stumbling block
never overcome, viz.?a consultation
with a family phyi-ician. 'Tia true
thero may bo oases of years standing,
that will necessitato more powerful
treatment, but in nine cueob out of ten
thin remedy will reach tho disease, and
after a little time efleot a cure. Tho
number of ladies cured by it are num
bered by thousand s, aud are scattered
through every sfato in the union.
