Southern Agriculture.
Eds.% Country Gentleman: The past
few weeks a great many editors, writers
and other persons 011 their wav to
the exhibition at New Orleans, have
passed through the Southern States,
some of them for the first time. To
those who have become acquainted
with southern agriculture by longer
experience, the views of these well j
meant but mistaken persons gathered I
from the car windows, seem to be ex- j
ceedingly crude or incorrect. The j
general idea current among them is,
that the southern soil is poor and in- j
fertile, and the southern people wretched
and very inadequately cared for by ;
themselves. 4'Circumstances alter 1
cases," and this applies very forcibly |
to the agriculture and the people of
the Southern States.
The first strange thing which is remarked
is the old pine fields and the
broom sedge which covers (lie turned
oat liiHd which has not grown up with !
timber. This, it is to be confessed, I
along with the water-worn gullies
which scar and seam the land, and the
abundant weeds, are at 5rst disagreea- ,
ble to the eye of a farmer used to the
better cultivation of the Northern and
"Western States, but one may be easily
mistaken in his view of even these. I
have heard persons remark as the cars!
sped through the best part of the cotton
belt, "what wretchcd weeds these
are which cover all the land." Where
do these southern people grow anything.
At the same time these weeds
"were the stalks of cotton which may
have turned out $50 worth to the acre.
In the same manner the old fields are
not a bit worse than the old-fashioned
bare fallows which used to be so common
in the best farmed districts of the
Xorth, for they are really one and the
same way of restoring land to some
. degree of fertility by means of the
natural process of resting it. Of the
two methods I prefer the southern one,
for I would rather grow a crop of
weeds or timber on unused land, than
leave it bare and plowed, for even one
enmrnpr Anrl Tr. is Jin absolute lieces
^ sity of southern agriculture that this
system of turning out land should be
practiced. Where no stock is kept, or
very little, I see no other resource for
the "planter of cotton and tobacco than
to work bis lands up to a certain point
and theu resort to his only possible
method of following as a means of restoration.
He is bound by his climate
and his other environments, and as the
cotton region of the South is not a
stock country, and never will be a
dairv region, and is not a very good
corn country, and seems to have been
made for cotton and tobacco, with a
sufacient quantity of grain, fodder and
meat to supply the domestic consumption
only, the southern farmer must
not be judged by a test which is en*
tirely foreign to his circumstauces.
The next thing which is conspicuous
js the poor dwellings that are so corns
mon, houses without gables and open
as the poorest barns in newly settled
places in the North. This," too, is a
necessity of the case. If any of these
winter visitors would pass over the
same route in July, August and Sep
tember, they would see the advantage
of these airy dwellings in quite a different
light. But every man to his
taste, and if southern people desire
such houses, and object to glass in the
windows, I would give them their undoubted
right to have them. I have
met with the kindest -hospitality, and
Trrif-li tVio mncf nnd iviwf'ni
M IbU VUV AJUVUW VtV'ftVMbV -?? vconsideration
in houses of this kind,
anil would consider the character of
the house as a secondary consideration
I have lived at one time in a log shanty
with a 2*oof of hemlock bark, having a
square hole in the centre for a chimney
and must say that I enjoyed life then
quite as much as in a house with every
luxury of modern fashion. It is not
the house, but the man in it which is
the true test.
But it would be a very great mistake
to think that one sees everything from
the carvwindows, and that there are as
well cultivated farms or comfortable
houses in the South, or that southern
farmers are not competent to judge
for themselves of what is the fittest for
them. Tt makes a very great change
in one's opinions when he is brought
face to face with new necessities. This
applies very forcibly to the South, both
in regard to its agriculture and its
social and political conditions, and a
Northern man moviong to the South
mnst free his mind from the force of
prejudices and be prepared to begin a
new life and view things from a different
point of view if ho would be
either successful or happy. It is these
prejudices and the determination to
remain aliens and foreigners in a
strahne land, which presents the success
of what are called Northern colonies
in the South. From my expe
nence oi tnese enterprises i. atn. very
much opposed to them and would recommend
persons desirous of moving
to the South to avoid them as far as
possible, and to make themselves at
home among their new neighbors, and
above all things to avoid towns founded
by speculators and land sharks, who
try to attract victims by calling their
enterprises Northern colonies. As
snow-flakes falling into the ocean and
quietly mingling with the surrounding
element, so must persons who go to
the South mingle with the people, and
lose their identity in the general mass,
No doubt an energetic northern
man would find opportunities for
changing the methods of agriculture in
the South, aud mostly in those localities
where the climate more nearlv aD
proaches that of the North as it does in
the mountain region which I have
been describing. But even in the low
country, where cotton is supreme, a
northern farmer can improve upon the
present methods, which is chiefly
marked by a strong dread and tea; of
grass. The southern is naturally a
grass region, and there are several
native varieties which grow with pro
fusion. Now grass is the basis of
agriculture everywhere, and if the
southern farmers would grow grass
ana plow it uuaer ior rneir cotton
crops, as a rotation, I feel certain it
would greatly benefit them. I have
no fear of grass, having learned the
value of that so-called pest, quack
grass, and how to manage it, and am
certain that by snch means as are used
in the north to keep down grass in cultivated
lields, no southern farmer need
ureaa me worse ox tueir native grasses
and would find them a mo>t valuable
aid in the improvement of their lands.
Another grand enterprise ; for the
South is sheep rearing for wool chiefly.
Wool c?.n be grown in the South for
ten cents a pound, and certainly for
less than a pound of cotton. There
are ample opportunities in the South
for competing favorably with the
South American plains in this industry.
Lambs can be raised through
the winter and can be shipped to
northern markets with profit. Eggs
and poultry would afford also a large
business, and could easily compere
with Germany and France in supplying
the demands of northern markets
now met by importations from En- i
rope. But the cotton crop in the low j
country affords the grand prize for j
good culture. The present low pro- j
(tact ot 200 pounds per acre coma be j
increased five fold by careful culture 1
with proportionate profit, and the |
wide-spreading low coutry affords a ,
magnificent market for products, pork, |
beef, mutton, fruit and other produce j
of the elevated mountain country. In j
addition to all these there are the val- i
uable minerals, the wonderful wealth |
of timber, bark and other natural products
which require development by
capital and industry and which must
anord a vast snostantiai oasis ior agricultural
prosperity.?H. S. in Cultivator

Sir J. B. I. iwes's Experiments.
Dr. J. B. Laws, the great English
agricultural experimenter, has raised
wheat on the same land for forty yea,,c
Without manure of any kind the vie
has averaged 1-i bushels per acre.
With 14 tons of farm-yard manure
applied every year, the average yield
has been 32 bushel? and 12 quarts per
acre. With mineral manures (i. e.,
superphosphate of lime, sulphate of
nntasli. snrLi mawnpsia. find
I ? 7 O J /
j without any nitrogenous manures, the
yield for 32 years lias averaged 15
bushels and one peck per acre." With
1 nitrogen alone (ammonium suits) the
; yield has avecaged 20? bushels per
1 acre for 32 years, though but 17 bushels
and 2-i quarts for the last 16 years.
With nitrogen alone (nitrate of soda)
the average yield for the 32 years has
i been 233 bushels?for the second 1G
years 20 bushels and one peck. Finally,
with nitrogen, phosphoric acid
potash, soda and magnesia (forming a
complete manure), the average yield
has been, per acre, 32 bushels and
three pecks, or on an average 12 quarts
more per acre each year than the average
yield given by the 13 tons of farmyard"
manure.

| Mr. tValker's Merits Set Before the Secretary
of the Treasury.
[ Special to the JVetcs and Courier.]
"Washington*^ April 1g.?The deleI
gatiou that arrived hers yesterday to
present the name of Mr. L. J. Walker
as the candidate of the business men
for the collectorsbip of the port ot
Charleston canea upon secretary .Manning
and the President to-day in fulfilment
of an appointment. The delegawas
led by Messrs. George H. Walter,
Frank E. Taylor, president of the
Charleston Exchange, and "W. K.
Steedman. Senators Hampton and
Butler were present to introduce tnc
committee, but took no part in the proceedings.
The gentlemen named presented
their case to Secretary Manning, -stat
mg that it was the wish 01 the business
men of Charleston to have the coliectorship
taken out of the hauds of politicians.
They said that Mr. Walker
w&s eminently qualified for the position,
had the confidence of the people of
Charleston, and that his appointment
would gratify eight-tenths of the business
men in the city. They challenged
an investigation into his private character,
which they declared was above
reproach.
Mr. Manning listened to them with
marked attention, remaining with them
even after the hour appointed for a
j Cabinet meeting, and said he would
give his personal attention, deciding
according to tne merits 01 uie case
after a careful consideration.
From- the treasury the delegation
went to the White House and paid
their respects to President Cleveland.
They told him of their mission to
Washington and expressed the hope
that he w-ould give the matter his attention
and recognize the business interests
involved. He was perfectly
cordial with them and they left very
well satisfied with the interview.
Mr. A. H. Mo wry, the rival candidate
for collector, is in the city, and it
is understood that special representations
in his behalf will be made in a
few days.
THE BALTIMORE BAZAAR.
Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars Raised for
ex-Confederate Soldiers.
Baltimore, April 15.?The bazaar
for the Confederate relief fund, which
has been open in this city for the past
ten days, closed to-night. It was in
every way successful, and yielded over
$25,000. The money is to tie invested
by the treasurer, and the interest devoted
to the relief of needed ex-Confederate
soldiers. The principal is to
be added to from time to time bv

raised to endow an institution which
will be a refuge for destitute men who

Scrofula.
. I -have had hereditary scrofula broken
out on me for eijfht years. My mother
and one sister died with it, and I, supposing
that I wonld go as other mem

potash seemed to aggravate instead of
I curing the disease. In this condition
I I was pressed to use Swift's Specific.
After taking six bottles the fearful

The Northwest Rebellion.
There is little change in the condition
ot affairs in the Northwest as
shown in official reports. The Indian
nnrisino- is attracting more aLtention
than the half-breed insurrection, and
members of the government admit that
they are greatly alarmed for the welfare
of the helpless settlers Battleford
is again surrounded and camp
fires arc constantly burning. Signal
fires have been lighted at different
points, which fact is looked upon with
alarm. The government denies the
report that it is disposed to efiect a
settlement wirn uie nau-ureeas ana
Indians by treaty. Sir John MacDona!d
slates that lie will first put down
the rebellion and then listen to what
the rebels have to say.

GE>\ GRANT'S CASE.
An Elaborate Statement of the Symptoms
and Condition of the Patient.
jsew iork, April 10.?mat ine j
public may be enabled ro thoroughly
understand the case itself and form reliable
opinions, the following absolute
facts are given as a basis for public
and personal judgment:
Gen. Grant is not greatly emaciated
about the body. He lias* lost some
flesh, but iiow much cauuot be told
as he has not been weighed in some I
time and is not much changed. But he [
has a careworn appearance. The
gland is swollen 011 the right side and
the swelling outside varies as there is
more or less swelling 011 the inside.
The glandular swelling has at 110 time
been larger than a pigeon's egg. It is
located at the angle of the right jaw.
It has never entirely disappeared since
it came months ago. The swelling is
due first to the irritation of growth
and finally to the progress- of the
disease in the glands themselves. There
is no positive evidence at present that
tliA o-lanrls hnvfl hfimmo a^tirolv (lis
eased, though the presumption is that
they are diseased. The disease does
not affect any of the processes of the
General's ear. There is some danger
of that, a possibility, but no probability
at present. It is not going in that
direction. The disease Is spreading
very gradually backwards into the
back part of the throat and behind the
palate. It has communicated somewhat
to the back part of the nose in
front and above the palate. There is
no lump 011 the tongue. It is an^nlcer
far back 011 the side of the tongue?a
small ulcer. It has never been shown
to its whole extent, but it is a small
ulcer, irregular in shape and from a
nnnrti'i' 1n h:ilf ?n inr.h in diHtnnffM*.
There is a discharge from the ulceratcd
surface. The discharge is composed
of mucus, broken down tissue and
some little matter. In other words it
is muco-pus. This exudes from an
ulcerated surface that, includes the
palate, the hack part of the throat and
the right side of the tongue. There is
a chance for the general improvement
of the patient by the temporary arrest
of the disease. The atmosphere on the
mountains, or of the West, would in
fair weather be better for the General
than the salt air of the seaboard. In
all cancerous cases in the throat tnere
are complications of irritation about"
the throat which might be called accidents
of the disease, and it is these
complications that have given trouble
rather than the steady progress of the
disease. In this case the complications
are swelling of the throat, increase of
inflammation, spasm, homorrhage and
increased flow of mucus.
Six drops or minims of morphia are
given each twenty-four honrs, just
enough to control pain and induce
sleep. "Without morphia the pain
would at times be unbearable. The
General takes for food from one to two
tumblers full of mixture of beef extract
and egg and milk every two to tour
hours, night and day.
Nfw York, April 16.?Senator Chaffee
said to-day that General Grant had
cither cancer or ulcerated sore throat,
if the former was the case, he would
inevitably die; if the latter, he would
** T <nrrnp> l\Ip ATTTM ^ O flfoft
rcl/uvcl it \v ao LAiO v>! 11 ^vuuu^v wj
belief that the trouble was caused by
an ulcerated sore threat only. General
Grant himself was of this opinion,
and was almost confident that he would
ultimately recover. , Mr. Chaffee said,
as he went away, "I think the General
will recover."
New York, April 17?8.30 A. M.?
General Grant has had a very refreshing
sleep. He says he has rested bet'*
** ? ? t- .1
ter tnan ior many mgms anu icuis
' strong enough to get up and dress for
the day. He has taken his nourish^
. rnent without pain in swallowing and
has not since last night been disturbed
by coughing. Pulse and temperature
unchanged.
New York, April 18?8.30 A. M.?
General Grant fell into a quiet sleep
, immediately after 10 o'clock and slept
well until 2 a. m., when he awoke and
took nourishment. Hesooii fell asleep
again aud slept until 5, when he awoke
, and nourishment was again given nun. |
He then slept lightly until 6, when he
awoke fully, took bis coffee, dressed
and is now moving about the rooms.
His pulse and temperature are normal.
Dr. Douglas said this afternoon that
, the patient was doing as weli as on
| yesterday, if not better.
A Gloomy View of the Case.
{Special to the 2?em and Cmirier.)
New York, April 17.?The reaction
of sentiment which now leads many
persons to believe that Gen.' Grant
tnav really get well ha?, according to
the doctors, no reliable foundation.
Dr. Douglas, wlio stands at the head
ot nis proiessiou as an experwu cancer
, disease, says that froin the first look he
had at Gen. Grant's throat in the early
autumn, he knew the General's fate
was sealed. The disease is taking1 a
course exactly similar to that noted in
scores of hospital cases, and although
the doctors do not deem it their duty
to contradict every expression of hope
uttered by trie family ana inenas or
the illustrious sufferer, they are none
the less positive when seriously questioned.
Gen. Grant's vitality has
proved to be greater than they expected;
tbat is the only comment which
they can make upon his apparent return
from the very gates of death. It
is also possible that the extraordinary
care and skill with which his case has
been treated may have helped to pro?
<" i / - m"i i 1 A I
ioujf nis iue. xiiere uavt: ueen t?vu ui
three moments during the last month
when he would have died had it not
been for the presence of a physician.
It is safe to say that if Gen. Grant
lasts until summer he will astonish his
doctors. The ups and downs concern
his general condition alone and have
no relation to the. cancer, the growth
of which is perfectly steady. When
the end comes it will come without
warning.

A HOTEL HOBBOK IN ST. LOUIS.
Finding a Dead Body Packed in a Trunk? j
The Room whence the Kody -was Taken
Unoccupied for a week.
St. Locis, April 14.?A sensation
was caused at the Southern Hotel, be- j
tween 11 and 12 o'clock to-day, by the j
discovery of the mutilated body of a I
man packed in a trunk which was
taken out of a room. The stench from
the trunk caused the discovery. The
hotel register shows that on March 30
a gentleman registerad as Walter II.
Lennox Maxwell, M. JL>., iroin .London"
and was assigned to that room.
On opening the trunk it was found
that the head of the man was severed
from his body, and written on the
paper inside the trunk were the words,
"So perish all traitors to the great
cause." The trunk and its contents
were taken to the morgue.
Maxwell is described as a very girlish-looking,
blonde young man, wearing
a dark woollen cut-away suit of
English stuff. His face was clean
shaven and he wore his hair bang fashion,
not partingitatall. Hewasseen in
company frequently with a dark-looking
gentleman about five feet ten inche
in height. This gentleman registered
qc fl Arthnr Prelim*. "London. .Encr
land.
A telelgram had previously been received
from Prellor asking whether
Maxwell was a guest at the house.
He was answered in the affirmative
and he soon came on. Both occupied
the same room. Maxwell left the
hotel on Sunday nighi a week ago,
but he had paid *his full week's board
promptly, and "it was supposed he
would return any day. JTo suspicion
attached to his absence until the hor?-*
' " J Alt 1 ?* VA/Mlrt
nuiu SlllCli Cilllt'U inUClJUUii IV JIIO I will
and led to the opening of the trunk.
"When the trunk was opened in the
hotel corridor to-day it was found to
contain the body of a middle-aged
man; the. face and breast up, and so
doubled about the hips and knees that
it filled the receptacle. On the side of
the trunk over the head of the corpse
was printed in large letters the words,
"So perish all traitors to the great
cause." The trunk and its ghastly
contents were immediately hurried to
the Four Courts. In another trunk
was found Maxwell's London address,
"14 Paper Building, Temple, London,"
and an euvelope addressed in
his handwriting to the "Rev. B. G. A.
Lewis, B. A., curator of St. Pauls,
Morlev, Leeds, Yorkshire, England."
He came over on the steamer CephaIonia
from England. Prellor had a
Pntsion noeonnpt Trivo/] hv thp

ambassador in London in 1878, and a
pasport of 1883 for Spain and Mexico,
vized by the Spanish minister and
signed Granville. Seven trunks, four
valises and a hat-box were left behind
at the hotel, and the contents, clothing,
etc., are valued at hundreds of dollars.
This is believed to make* the theory of
a hoax untenable, and the belief is that
the corpsc is either that of Maxwell
or Prellor.
St. Locis, April 15.?Waller H.
Lennox Maxwell, who is supposed to
have murdered C. A. Pellor and packed
his body in a trunk at the Southern
Hotel, April 5, purchased a through

Monday morning, April 6, and signed
his name to the ticket befcre leaving.
He left the same evening on the San

on the train by two St. Louis
gentlemen, who talked with him as far
as Pierce City, Mo.
San Francisco, April 16.?Detectives
have discovered that Maxwell,
the murderer of Preller at the Southern
Hotel, in St. Louis, arrived here
under an assumed name last Saturday,
and took steerage passage on the steamer
City of Sydney for New Zealand
via Honolulu. Thejtelegraph has been
called in^o requisition to head him off

the baggage checks delivered by Maxwell
under an alias to the Pacific
Transfer Company, of this city, correspond
with the numbers issued at St.
Louis by the St. Louis and San Francisco
Railroad to a different alias.
A HUNDRED REBELS DEOWJfED.
The Novel Method by Which the Colombian
Government Disposes ot 'Captured Revolutionists.
( .
City of Mexico, April 47.?When
troops of the Colombian Government
finally entered Colon, after it had been
burned by the rebels under the leadership
of Preston, they captured several
squads of rebels. Daring the past ten
days the number of the prisoners has
been considerably augmented by the
receipt of straggling rebels captured in
the surrounding districts. It is not
known now just how many rebels were
thus held prisoners at Colon, but good
authorities place the number at about
four hundred. Authentic information
reached this city last night that on
Wednesday law officers of the Colombian
Government selected one hundred
of the .worst rebels imprisoned at
Colon, and, placing them on board a
steamer, carried them out into the bay
where the entire hundred were thrown
overboard and drowned.

Washington, April 16.?It is understood
that the policy .of this administration
with regard to appointments to
places in the Southern States now held

substitute white men for colored men,
but to replace incompetent or dishonest
colored Republicans by colored
Democrats who are worthy and capable.
In accordance, it is said, with
this policy, the Postmaster General

"Yes, yes," replied the man. "I see
how it is" Your mother inherited her disease,
scrofula, and your father caught his

A large proportion of the diseases which
cause human suffering result frou derangemens
of the stomach, bowels, and lirer.
Ayee's Cathartic Pills act directly npon
these organs, and are especially designed to
core the diseases caused by their derangement,
including Constipation, Indigestion,
Dyspepsia, Headache, Dysentery,
and a host of other ailments, for all of
which they are a safe, sure, prompt, and
pleasant remedy. The extensive use of these
Prr.rji hv eminent Dhvsicians in regular prac
tice, shows unmistakably the estimation in
which they are held by the medical profession.
These Pills are compounded of vegetable
substances only, and are absolutely free from
calomel or any other injurious ingredient.
A Sufferer from Headacho writes:
" Ayer's Pills are invaluable to me, and
are my constant companion. I have been
a severe suiferer from Headache, and your
Pills are the only thing I could look to
| for relief. One dose will quickly move my
j bowels and free my head from pain. They
I are the most effective and the easiest physic
1 1 have ever found. It is a pleasure to me to
speak in their praise, and I always do so
when occasion offers.
