Bermuda vs. Bice 3ra*s.
In your editorial on a correspondent j
to a Virginia paper you seem to make j
sport of the idea that 3erouida grass j
was of any value as a pasture grass, i
I have not seen this g^sss in-the South j
where it grows to its greatest perfec-1
tion, and cannot vouch that one acre is j
worth three of blue grass, but I do !
know that even Kentucky has some j
soil in certain locations that more feed j
can be had from Bermuda than can be j
from blue or any other grass that I j
know of. Having been born and j
I?U*CU il< 11JC ncai k tub w?uv jjk v.-^ j
region of Keutacky, I believe that I j
have a just conception of its beauty, j
fertility, etc., and my admiration for j
that part of the moral vineyard is sur- j
passed by none of her sons. Yet I j
think, to "give the devil his due,"
while we admit that Central Kentucky
is the ceutre of the universe, that these
are borders to this centre, and that'
while blue grass in its home is the^
king among the pasture grasses, there*
are other that fill a very prominent
place in locations where this grass does j
not grow to profit, and among them is
Bermuda.
Let me give you the result of two
experiments I have made with this
grass. Three years ago I set about
three-fourths of an acre of as poor hill
? '* .1 . / 5
iaua as mere is m me comity ^anu
you know that is saving a good deal)
?entirely too poor to get a stand of
blue or "orchard grass without heavy
fertilizing; to-day it will furnish as
much feed for five months of the year
as any bine grass in our county. At the
same time 1 set a fsmall plot of seapy,
wet, thick grassy land (which seems
to be the true home for Bermuda). I
firmly believe that this last will carry
one-half more stock to the acre for five
months than will- the same amount of
land set in btae grassin any section of
the State. Bermuda is strictly a summer
grass and will never come into
competition with blue grass or orchard
grass; but for the short .while.that it
does last I believe it to be well worthy
of cultivation, especially where the
" soil is too poor or wet for the other
grasses to grow.
There are some disadvantages to the
cultivation of this grass?one is the
almost Impossibility to kill when once
well set. I should not advise its use
upon any laud that is to be cultivated
in plow crops, for it seem to delight in
being tossed about; it ouly checks the
growth for a short time to come again
with renewed vigor.?J1". G. B. in

1 Value of Hay Cr pi.
It is an error to suppose the same
mode of cultivating crops will succeed
iu all sections and kinds of soil, just as
much so as that all crops will succeed
out of their latitude, but I have never
yet seen a section in which the farmers
had learned everything, or could not
get some idea* from another.

Tennessee^ proverbial for its hospitable
and" enterprising people, fine farms,*
stock, and climate.
Farmers do not raise cotton there,
bnt instead grain, grass and stock, the
farmer's best friends; therefore they
doa't mortgage their crops for sapplies
at from 50 tP 100 per cent, and
- have plenty of the good thiugs of this
world to eat.
Stock and grass are the geatest boon
any couuiry can have. There can be
^ no doubt of this. Becanse with clover
and grass you prodnce paying crops
with little "worK, build up your land,
% produce more manure which is better
' than any guano for permanent value
to the soil, and that -without a cash
outlay. A writer in March number of
Cultivator says it pays twelve times
as much to use manure on cotton,
according to his test, as without it.
Now let us figure some on grass for
hn.v as a navinor ftron. and see what the
profits are/for the profits are what all
are after- For Instance I have a field
of 25 acres in clover and grass that
will produce at least two tons of hay
per acre.. This requires uo cultivation
? after being set, and will stand for
V ' years.
Now 25 acres at two tons, worth
now $1S per ton, gives u? from the
plat, tons of hay at $10 $900 00
To house this will cost le*s than any
crop.-' Nothing to do until June, then
with a mowing machine and one other
hand and. one horse* 8 acres can be
put in the barn per day. The expense
may be put at, cutting 25 acres .at 50,
cents per acre..V. v.: $12 50
Hauling into bam 10 00
Total expense $22 50
N<jw. from this same plat you can
get a: crop ofvcl6ver seed, about 1
bushel per acre, worth from 6 to 8
, . dollars per bushels and it will always
sell.. Xheu_ besides you have grazing
all.winter foe.stock, 'the land improving,
without any plowing or work of
kind until tne next June.
With grass stock should go, for then :
it can be grazed all summer, the drop- j
pings enriching the land, while the growth
and iucreasc of cattle, horses, j
sheep, etc., is progressing day and:
night. They feed themselves except a
few months in winter, and if desired
they can be marketed in the fall. Thus i
a fanner can take it easier, produce'
some wheat, corn, peas and root-crops i
for 1 attening meat and bread-stuff and j
he is ?ate.
A neighbor said to me his object in j
planting cotton exclusively is, it pro- j
duces more per acre and that cash than !
any crop. That may be true, bnt said j

^ V*tetab!e Hatter 1b the Soil.
Much of the cause of failure in farming
is to be attributed to the constant
demands made upon onr lands and the
; Vv, poor returns given them for their pro?
^ " ducts. "We are just now at the season
when farmers do themselves most hurt
m Tins way. In a lew days more, tbe
grain will be taken from the
tields^^^he generous soil yielding
from"r.v^^overty the best it can give,
appqate us for recuperation and the
recovery of its strength. Will we continue
to exhaust it and thereby destroy
the last resource of our farms, or'more
. v judiciously;, to preserve, restore and
enrich it for coining harvests and
better yields?
Under proper care our soil* do not
need, nor, indeed, in the nature of
things, can they have actual rest. If
not producing "such crops as are put
upon them, they will spontaneously
.grow others that reach out for the
additional strength given by the atmosphere
and other resources of nature
to be carried again, to the chamber*
below, to be hnsbanded as fresh vitality
for future use. If, as these little
> helps, in the shape of grass and weeds
peer above the ground, our cattle and
larm stock shall be standing, with
murderous intent, to destroy them,
what else can we expect bnt denuded
lands, poor cro^s, gnllied fields and
bankrnptcy? Will it not be better to
give natare time and oppoi-tunity to
restore itself and rather give it "kelp
than paralyze its power? To do this
all stock should be kept from our cultivated
fields, and the vegetable matter

accumulating allowed to decay upon
the surface, or better, properly turned
under the soil. We have been much
gratified at the results upon our own
farm from such of our fields. By j
attaching a chain of suitable weight to ;
the double-tree of a two-horse plow, j
we have effectuallv covered weeds that j
Stood upon, the ground five feet high, j
so that not a vestige of them could be j
seen. Lands treated in this way for j
nine years are yielding fifty per cent, j
better crops than when this system of |
improvement begau.
Upon other fields we have sown |
peas, trying them broadcast and in !
drills. For peas, put upon grain lands I
our seasons are not uniformly good, j
aud this practice is somewhat uncer- j
tain as to results. When, however, j
the seasons have been remarkable and ;
much better than when the fields were i
left to the spontaneous growth of the
soil. The general system of hoed
crops usual, with us, has necessarily
prevented the accumulation ofvegctble
matter upon our cultivated fields, and
our only hope to obtain it is by rotation
of crops and allowing spotaneous
growth and crops cultivated for' the
purpose to remain upon the lauds for
manure.
The great press of business and push
of work, just at this season, make it
very difficult to take on an additional
crop of peas without detriment to

however, is a very important one, and
farmers must determine wisely as to
the best means of supplying tbeir soils
with humus. Peas, if planted during
this month, must be put in very rapidly.
The seasons stay in the ground
but a little time and the work must be
done quickly if it succeeds. If the
fields should be thoroughly pulverized
with a Disc harrow, the rows can be
laid off and sufficiently bedded, covering
the peas at the same time, and
the balance of the land breaking left
"to be done at a later stage. In this
way the work can be rapidly and
effectual done. The application of

What S. S.8. is Dolus: for Me.
I have suffered a long time with
cancer and skin eruption. The best
physicians tested their skill, but said
they could do nothing more for me.
I have taken less than a half dozen
bottles of Swift's Specific, and to my
surprise as well as to the wonder of
all my friends, my face has peeled off,
the skin is smooth and clear, my eye
is almest well, and the cancer on mv
neck is drying np. I have gained five
pounds in flesh during the last month,
and am now in better health than I
have been in eleven years. A terrible
load has been lifted off of me.

symptoms alarmed me, and I was
ready to grasp at any remedy suggested.
A friend advised me try Swift's
Specific. 1 procured three bottles and
commenced its use. The swelling
soon subsided. I have taken three
bottles, which have made a perfect

It has wrought wonders for me.

The Panama CanaJ.
The report of Henry Marechal, a
stockholder in the Panama Canal
scheme, and who was sent by French
investors to the Isthmus to examine
the progress ancfc cbaracterof the work
thus far .accomplished, has created a
sensation in Paris. His statement that
but three per cent, of the work has
been done, while six hundred millions
of francs of the subscription* have
been expended or pledged, has opened
the eves of the French neoDle. Mare
ehal savs tliat what he has already
made public is only a part of the facts,
and that he wIH astonish the stockholders
with certain private information
when they meet. The authorities
at Washington on interoceanic canal
matters on this side of the globe regard
MarechaPs disclosures of his experiences
on the Isthmus in February and
March as the finale to the French project.
The American engineers who were
sent by the Navy Department to review
the surveyed line by the Nicaraguan
route reached Washington a
few days ago. It has bees intimated
by the* Secretaries of State and the
Navy that in addition to the protection
of American interests, the prompt dispatch
of a navr.1 and land force to the
Isthmus had a diplomatic and international
significance. It demonstrated
that the United States had commercial
interests on the Isthmus and had entered
into certain treaty obligations
which would be protected and enforced.
A Little rold Was spent.
Mr. Z. A. Clark, of Atlanta, Ga., in
speaking of ?480.00 in gold, desires to say
to the readers of this paper, that the whole
of the above amount was spent in a fruitless
effort in finding relief from a terrible
iitooQ roison anecting ms ooay, urnos ana

is now sound and well, having been curcd
by the most speedy and wonderful remedy
ever before known, and any interested
party who may need a Blood Purifier will
learn from him that three bottles of B. B. B.
restored his appetite, healed all ulcers, relieved
his kidneys, and added twenty-one
pounds to his weight in thirty days. *

GENERAL GRANTS TKIP.
He Arrives Safe, but Travel-Worn, at his
Sura m er Residence.
General Grant left New York on the
morning of the lfith inst., for Mount
McGregor, N. Y., where lie will spend
the summer. He arrived the same
afternoon. The last stage of the journey
was the worst, as the jolting caused

ine uenerai mucn pain anu iauguu.
When the General alighted from the
train a large banner confronted him,
bearing the words, "Welcome to Our
Hero." At the moment a photographer,
with a camera on the platform,
took an instantaneous picture of the
General alighting. The General, steadied
on each side by Henry and Harrison,
his attendants, started to walk
from the train to the Drexel cottage.
The ascent was easy and the distance
short, but his strength failed and he
was placed in a chair, which was carried
to the cottage by two porters.
Mr. Drexel and Mrs. Grant were close
behind the General, and his household
and servants followed, forming a little
procession. On the cottage stoop Miss
Drexel welcomed the party and conducted
the ladies to their room.
The General walked to his room, on
the same level as the broad piazza, and
there he sank into a chair, with pillows
beneath and behind him. Perspiration
was standing on his face, and the strain
of the journey gave way to reaction
even to extreme weakness. He laid
back with closed eyes and the nurse
fanned his face. Dr. Douglas was
anxious to examine and cleanse the
General's throat. He found that considerable
irritation had been caused by
the fine dust which had lodged in the
throat during the jourrey, but saw
that the surface underneath, though
inflamed, appeared better than he had
expected. The swelling outside had

trip it rapidly filled forward on the
neck and below the collar. The General's
voice, which was better at starting,
had utterly failed him, and any
effort to speakresulted only in faint
and almost inaudible aspirations.
The doctor thought this aphonia was
due to fatigue, which was greater during
the last hour of the trip than at
any other time. When the doctor had
cleansed and treated his throat the
General appeared on the piazza and
was seated in a pillow-cushioned chair
with his feet resting in another. His
skull cap was drawn down and his
neck was protected by the upturned
collar of his gown. His elbows rested
on the arms of the chair, his hands
were clasped, his eyes closed and the
watchers said he was enjoying repose.
This, however, was not so. After ten
minutes he arose and, with his cane,
slowly walked to his room and laid
down. In faint whispers he let Dr.
Douglas know he was very weary and
was glad the journey was ended. His
pulse, ordinarily 71, was SO beats to
the minute. The family are all quartered
at the cottage, but Dr. Douglas
has his rooms in the house.

despite the fatigue, was wakeful until

left to watch the General.
CRUELTY TO CONVICTS.
A Renewal of Complaint of Disgraceful
Conduct of Railroad Contractors.
(Columbia Register, June 19.)
The Register yesterday placed the
reading public in possession of the
facts that there were rumors ofa repetition
of inhuman treatment Of convicts
at the camp of Maj. Twiggs, who
is working theoi 011 the line of the

convicts from that camp had been
returned to the penitentiary in a disabled
condition. Colonel "John C.
Haskell, who had returned from Abbeville
on last Tuesday, informed the
Governor that reports of cruel treatment
inflicted upon the convicts employed
on the Savannah Valley Kailroad
were current there. These
reports stated that the convicts were
compelled to work fifteen hours a day,
and that the indications strongly
pointed to harsh treatment as the cause
of two deaths which had occureed recently.
At the Governor's request,
Colonel Haskell Submitted a statement i
of these reports in writing; whereupon
the Governor immediately directed
the superintendent of the penitentiary,
accompanied by the surgeon,
to make a personal inspection of the
convicts, and, after a careful investigation
of the charges of maltreatment,
to make a fall report of their condition.
In accordance with these instructions,
Colonel Lipscomb and Dr.
Pope left on Wednesday for the couvict
camp.

when Dr. Gaubert, who, in the absence
of the physician of the penitentiary
attend to his duties, examined these
convicts. They were all negroes, their
names being Tom Williams, John
Williams, Elias Williams, Massa Cameron,
Joe Armstrong, Nathan Mitchell
and Paten Wilson. Five of them were
in the hospital, where they had been
placed immediate on their arrival.
Thcv were suffering from various
causes, but nothing in their cases
pointed to any such brutal or severe
treatment at the camp as indicated by
the rumor? above alluded to. None of

harsher than being compelled to leave
their camp before daylight in the'
morning in order to-reach the work*,
which was five or _six miles away,
working until dark and not getting
back to camp until about 9 o'clock at
night. They all spoke of the brutality
practiced on some of the Qther convicts
by a white man named Jackson from
Georgia, who was left in charge of
them daring the absence of Major
Twiggs and Captain Cahill. In consequence
of the ~ fearful beatings inflicted
by this man on them two convicts
had died within a. month past,
one being Sam. Fludd from Orange

About five million people voted for

CLUVERIUS SENTENCED.
A New Witness Appears, However, Who
Claims to Prove an Alibi.
Cluverius was called up for sentence,
on Friday morning. > When asked if
he had anything to say, he briefly
staled that the Judge was passing sentence
on an innocent man. lie made
no set spcech. lie-was then sentenced
to be hung on the loth day of November
next. The day was thus fixed, in
order to give time for a hearing before
the Court of Appeals.
On Saturday, the counsel for CI 11 verbis
stated to the Court that since sentence
was passed they had the affidavit
of Johnson, a.clerk at Ford's Hotel,
slating that on Friday (the day of
sentence) he had met one J. D. Savage
who stated that he (Savage) had, on
the day of the alleged murder, at different
places, between Sand lO.oOo'clock,
p. m., seen a man whom, after examination
of the photographs of the prisoner,
he recognized as Clnverius. The
object of this evidence is, of course, to
establish an alibi.
The affidavit was not properly signed,
and could not be considered. The
further hearinir of the case was there
fore postponed, till Friday next.
The Commercial Situation.
When large quantities of goods are
forced for sale through the auction
rooms, instead of through the.regular
channels, it is always pretty safe to
conclude that business has suffered a
period of depression and that production
has gone on until it required a
special way of affording relief to the
markets. "These auction sales are
oftentimes regarded with more or less
trepidation in the trade?fii^st, because
there is danger that buyers will only
be found for the goods offered if the
prices are much below those current
at the time the sales take place, and
second, because there is danger that
lar^re peremptory offerings are likely
to 1111 ivp the demand for some time to
come. A few weeks ajjo an auction
sale of flannels was held in this city,
which, in its results, was quite up to
expcctions, both as to prices and the
demand. Lust week there were I wo
sales of flannel goods aggregating1 in
money value between two and three
millions or' dollars, yet the conccssion
which had to be made, so far as prices
are concerned, were moderate, and not
only were tnc goods catalogued disposed
of, but in some ca?es they had to
ue duplicated. All this shows that
consumption is increasing and' that
buyers are apparently of the belief
that tliis is a good time to lay in stocks.
One of the underlying causes for the
long depression in trade has been an
indisposition to purchase in the hope
of being able to secure better terms by
waiting. Hence the demand has been
reduced to a minimntn, while mills
have been kept running long after
their operation had been found unprofitable,
if only for the purpose of
keeping hands employed and to pre
vent loss on macninery, wmcn always
results from a shut down.
Even now there is no decided evidence
that the situation has changed
permanently for the better, but at the
same time the indications are encouraging
and afford ground for the belief
that a basis is being- laid for a revival
of confidence which may in turn set
the wheels of trade andcommercc in
active motion next autumn.?New

is fifteen cents per pound or three
pounds for fifty cents, and potatoes
are ntteeii cents ior two quarts or ten
cents for one quart. The lady says
that no amount of reasoning will make
the hucksters change their queer arithmetic.
They won't be convinced that
at fifteen cents per pound, for beef,
forty-five and not fifty cents ought to
buy" three pounds, and at eight cenls
cents per quart two dollars should buy
twenty-five quarts, and that at fifteen
cents for two quarts eight cents should
get one quart. The lady attributes
such treatment of customers, by the
hucksters, to the improvidence of the
the Charleston people.

DEA1H IN THE COAL MIXES.
A Fearful Colliery Disaster iu England?
One Hundred Miners Supposed to Have
Lost their Lives.
A terrible explosion took place last
week in Pendlebury Colliery near
Manchester, England. Sixty persons
have been rescued olive and seven dead
bodies have been recovered. Hun-J
dreds of miners are still below, and
there is only a faint hope that any of
these can be saved. The ca?;es in
which volunteers were proceeding
down to the bottom of the pit got
stuck in the shaft, and it was two
hours before the party could get to
work exploring the mine for the missing
men. Those who were rescued
state that when the explosion occurred
they fled to the bottom of the shaft,
and they are ignorant of the fate of
their companions.
Another account of the explosion
says it occurred in Clifton Colliery,
that there were 350 men at work at the
time, that 120 were taken out, but 230
are still imprisoned, and that it is
feared that most, if not all, will perish.
Later dispatches from Manchester
say that the explosion was caused by
fire damp. There were working in
the mine at the time it occurred 349
miners. One hundred and sixty of
these were at work in the level in
which the explosion occurred. They
are still in the mine and cannot be
reached, o.ving to the masses of coal
thrown down by the explosion and
which closed up their means of exit.
The one hundred and twenty men be- j
fore reported rescued were taken out .
before^noon. Great excitement has J
been caused by the disaster.
A dispatch from Manchester says !
that one hundred additional men have
been rescued from the mine. Probably
one hundred have been killed.
Later reports from the scene of the
explosion are to the effect that the
damage to buildings in the vicinity of
the magazine was only slight. Weaver
and Nelson, the former of whom was
killed, were found almost denuded of clothing.
Their limbs were broken :
and their eyes blown out. Nelson is
reported to* be dying. The place.where .!
the magazine stood is indicated by a
blackened hole in the ground, twenty
feet wide', thirty feet long and ton feet
deep.

He said: "I shall remain here and rest

and altitude is about oOO feet. I hope
to be quite well by the time I go back
to Washington. I go to bed early and
the birds wake me in the morning."
?The relief committee of Plymouth,

\_hrom the Atlanta Constitution.]
"My name is Man* Chapman, and I live
at the corner of Williams and Cox streets,
Atlanta. I have been a dreadful sufferer
from scrofula and running, eating scrofulous
ulcers for six years. "Have been waited
upon during the time by seven Atlanta
physicians, but they failed to cure me. I
aiso useu variuus <tu\eni>ru icmcuica
without the least benefit While being
thus treated, I grew worse all the time.
Scrofulous swellings on both sides of my
neck?which became running, eating sores,
affecting my throat, mouth and nose. The
eating sores on my neck were a mass of
corruption almost"down to the bones. Mv
throat became so much affected that I
could scarcely swallow, my food lodging in
a portion of my throat I lost my appetite
entirely, lost my flesh, and was reduced to
GO pounds weight?being a mere .skeleton.
My whole system became terribly poisoned
and in a fearful condition. In this condition
I commenced the use of B. B. E.,,and
found great relief in the first bottle.
"When I had used five bottles my health
had so much improved that the ulcere were
all healed, the swelling subsided, my appetite
returned, my skin became active,
my strenfrth returned, and I gained 44
pounds of flesh. I am now healthy, fat
and hearty, and am able to do as much
work as any woman, and feel as happy as
a lark."
KIDNEY COMPLAINT
For over six years I have been a terrible
sufferer from a troublesome kidney complaint
for the relief of which I have spent
over $250 without benefit, and most noted
so-called remedies proving failures. The
use of one single bottle of B. B. B. has
been marvelous, giving morereliel tlian all
other treatment combined. It is a quick
cure, while others, if they cure at all, are
in the distant future.
