affidavits in support of the application
for bail. Thirty-four of these were
made by the persons charged with
participation in the crime, and were to

detection and lawful punishment of
the murderer of W. II. Hammond,

AIRS. CULBEATIl'S AFFIDAVIT.
Mrs. Fannie Prescolt Culbreath, being
sworn, say? that she was the wife
of the late O. T. Culbreath, and that
she is the mother of Memphis Culbreath,
now :n the county jail charged,
as she is informed, with being accessory
to the killing of his father. That
it comes within the knowledge of deponent
that her son, Memphis Culbreath,
was about her house during
the morning and afternoon of Monday,
the 21st September last, on the night
of which day his father was killed, and
until the usual hour of bedtime that
night, at which time he retired to bed;
and she does not doubt that he was at
her house during the entire night; that
he slent up-stairs, and deponent does
not believe that it was possible for him
to have made his exit from the house
"without her knowledge. Deponent
knows absolutely that if the said O. T.
Culbreath was killed at or near EdgeSeld
Courthouse befox-e 10 o'clock of
the night of September 21, her son was
not present and could not have been
connected with the killing.
Deponent further swears that for

she had for several years been the
victim of unkind, cruel and inhuman
treatment at his hands; that he frequently
cursed and abused deponent
and her dead father and mother; that
he more than once threatened to take
her life and to reduce her property to
ashes, and said that if she should go to
her brother he would reduce his home
to ashes; that she has remained up at
night, surrounded by her children,
fearing that if she should retire to bed
she would'while asleep be murdered
by him; that on one occasion he drew
a knife and swore that he would take
her life, and deponent now believes,

Deponent was so apprehensive that
her life was in continual peril that
when Mr. Hammond was murdered in
her yard and the jury of inquest failed
to discover by whom the murder was
committed, she felt that the law was
powerless to save her from harm, and
she requested the solicitor of the Circuit
to appeal to the gentlemen of the

from further annoyance and distress,

"VY\ J. Talbert. State Senator, being
sworn, says: That deponent lives
about fifteen miles from Edgefield vil
lage. That deponent was at home and
seat his son to the postoflice, about two
miles distant, for his mail; when deponent's
son returned from the postoffice
on the 21st September last he
informed deponent that he had seen a
nnmhf>r of citizens ridinsr alon<r the
road, but did riot know where or for
what purpose they we;e going. Deponent
was quite unwell, bnt knowing
that there was great excitement prevailing
in that community on acconnt
of the recent murder of\V. II. Hammond,
and apprehending that, in consequence
of the inflamed condition of
the public mind, something wrong
might be done, and believing it to be
hi3 duty to discourage and prevent any
Kwlpssnpss. denonont at once roiie in
the direction in which the persons had
been seen to ascertain the object of the
movement.
Deponent went to the home of his
neighbor, Pat II.Bussey,and informed
him of his purpose, and requested him
to go with him, which he did. I)ejpo
nent and P. H. Bussey overtook ditt'erent
citizens along- the road, and when
they overtook D. C. Bnsscy, who was
riding, P. H. Bussey, who was on a
mule, rode with him. Deponent went
forward rapidly and found a nnnioer
of citizens at Antioch Church, and
was informed that others had ridden
in the direction of Edgefield. When
tiio rifr/YMix toy-ether there was a
fc"v c "r
i large gathering. Deponent was in!
formed that the object was to take
[ steps to bring the murderer of Ham!
mond to trial and punishment. When

; been issued for the arrest of O. T.
j Culbreatb, some of the citizens, as
i well as tins ueponeut, auviseu me
crowd to disperse and go home and
; allow the law to take its course. No

j seemed satisfied and began to get their
horses, and persons began to leave.
j When deponent saw P. II. Bnssey,

! were ready to <ro home, and, being
answered that they were ready, depoj

! Corn that Produces Flour Like Wheat. !
j Mr. W. J. Arrants has brought to
i the Columbia correspondent of the
News and Courier samples of four
grades of white flour, the finest being
identical in appearance and feeling i
j with the best wheat flour, and the j
coarsest being finer than the ordinary
corn meal. This flour he saw ground
! from corn in J. L. Dominick's mill at
I Peak's Station, Lexington county.
| The mill is supplied with the ordinary
j burr-stones. The corn from which it
was made was raised by a farmer
j living a few ruiles from Peak's. Year
j before last he bought a pint of it in
j the \Ve>.t and this year raised twenty:
five bushels. Mr. Arrants says that he
| ate biscuits and bread made from the !
j flour and that it resembled that made
! from the flour and that it resembled j
that made from wheat flair, except
that it was a trifle sweeter. He showed
the flour to dealers in Columbia, who
took it for the best patent roller process
| wheat flour. The corn is said to re
sem'ole pop-corn somewhat, is entirely
free from flint and bears from four to
seven ears to t!ie stalk. The significance
of the thing seems to be in the
apparent fact that flour equal or equivalent
to wheat flour can be made from
| a grain much more productive in our
i State than wheat can be. The corres{
pondent does not know the name of
j the corn or the grower, but sends the
i JVctcs and Courier small samnles at

you think of this plan: Say, as sooti
as I am through picking cotton, commence
hauling pine straw and op
earth of the pine field, scattering
broadcast a good supply, plowing this
in, and letting remain uutil spring and
plow up and rebed?
The heavy application of straw
would keep the drenching rains from
washing land so much. With skill

of land, though it is doubted by many.

Answer.?Hauling leaves, etc., on
the land is a most effective method of
supplying humus. The only objection
i.o it is its cost. Where everything is
convenient, it might pay very well,
but it is doubtful if its good effects

the first year, unless the leaves were
partially rotted: especially is this true
of stiff soils. Fresh fallen leaves,
whether of pine or oak, but especially
oak, rot quite slowly. A better plan
to secure fail effect at once, would be
to compost the leaves with lime or
aslies, in pens convenient-to the land
in time to get tnein rottea, aua tnen
apply broadcast. To keep land from
washing and leaching through the
winter, row down in rye, early in
September, and plow the green rye in
with the leaves in the spring, say about
the middle of March, or sume three or
four weeks before it *vilL be necessary
to bed the land. There is no doubt
that lour bales of cotton can be raised
to the acre; it has been done, but as
an average crop, embracing bad as
well as good seasons, it is probably
more than could be realized. Two
bales per acre is not au unreasonable
possibility as an average crop.?Southern

Extensive Farming-Young Farmer W. O.
"Wadley.
The tendency for the past few years
has Ueen to small rather than large
farms. The many details of management;
the multiplied avenues of expense;
the inefficiency of labor; the
great-extent of land to be gone over,
and the general scattered condition of
things, all conspire to make farming,
on a~ large scale, a failure. Young
Ianner, >v. u. wacuey, 01 uonngbroke,
in this State, is, however, one
of the rare exceptions, making splendid
success upon the extensive system.
Mr. Wadlev has in cultivation about
fifteen hundred acres of land. The
crop is cultivated by renters, croppers
and hands for wages. The renters run
four umles and pay, as rent, one-third
of the grain and one-fourth of the cottOD
they raise. The croppers run
twentv-one mules, receiving one-half
of everything- they make, after paying
for one-half of the fertilizers. The
wages hands are graded from eight to
ten dollars per month and run fifteen
males. The croppcrs and renters cultivate
from twenty to forty-five acres
per mule, and the *vages hands twentyfive
acres. The entire farm is under
the management and control of Mr.
Wadleyand Ins efficient" superintendent.
Everything moves by signals,
that all hands alike mast obey. Saturday
is not a holiday; and if a renters
mule is found in the barn without
the consent of Mr. Wadlev or his
superintendent, tho party leaving hira
there is charged seventy-live cents a
day for mule feed.
Every minute of lost time is deductniirl
pvprv rmnntn nf lnhnr ?? sprn
puloasly paid for. All kinds of improved
implements are used, and parties
using tool arc held responsible for
them. The cultivation of the crops on
this farm has been thorough and judicious;
and Mr. "W adtey's neighbors
say they have never seen a better crop
for so large an area. Many acres of
corn are estimated to yield fifty to
seventy-five bushels. Mr. Wadlev
does not give his attention to the culti
ration of his fields to the neglect of
the other matters of the farm. His
barn is in keeping with his advanced
system of culture. It is large, well
ventilated, and commodious; with
different compartments for all kinds of
stock and conveniently arranged for
saving all the droppings from the animals.
Mr. Wad ley makes very much
of his manure at "home, and "ia this
way greatly reduces expenses.
The poultry on this farm are by no
means a small part of its interest, and
the home dairy, although run by native
ows, furnishes an abundance of rich

Enrichinsr Land Oats and Cotton Alternate
ly?Composting Leaves,
1. I have 100 acres of ordinary gray
land which I want to bring tip lroin
one-third bale to a bale per aere if I
can. I had thought to alternate with
small grain and cotton so as to cultivate
the same land only oue year and
then sow down in order to gct'as much
vegetable matter in uie land as possible.
Considering the profits of farming-,
would you recommend such a
rotation, or would it be better to rnn
the land in cotton longer before sow
ing?
2. Would you recommend composting
oak or pine leaves with lime now
to be used tinder cotton next spring,
if so, please give inc( an idea of the
proportion, and woufd these be improved
by the addition of acid phosphate
and cotton seed meal, and what
amount to the acre 011 ordinary gray
land? I do not know much about
farming, but want lo bring my land
into first-das- condition, and desire
vrnir nrivietv fis I h?vi> vr?rv iitflp r.nni
tal to spend indoubtfulexperiments.?
Subscriber Anderson, S. C'.
Answer.?1. It is better to sow the
I laml every other year in oats, than to
I sow it every third year. We must
I not only supply the land with humus,
i but keep it supplied. Fresh lands
j abound injiumus, and yet how soon
are thev deprived of it under our ordi
narv rotations. The usual custom is,
when alternating cotton and oats, to
manure the cotton but not the oats.
Where one is desirous of improving
the land rapidly, it is better to manure
both crops, a good broadcast application
being given the oats, and drill
manuring given the cotton. Two hundred
pounds each uf acid phosphate
and cotton seed meal might be plowed
in with the oats, and two to three
thousand pounds of a compost, like
Furrnan's, put in the drill for cotton.
After the soil is deepened and the land
becomes filled with humus and has a
good supplv of plant food, the above
quantities of manure may be doubled
to advantage.
2. To get quick returns?and this is
always desirable in farming?it is better
to compost leaves than to apply
them as gathered I'rotn the woods. The
latter decompose too slowly when put
in the soil. To economize the labor of
hauling, the compost pens should be
distributed conveniently about the
field to which it is to be applied.
About ten bushels of quick lime will
be required to every five or six twohorse
wagon loads of leaves, well
tramped in a body of ordinary dimensions.
The lime should be slacked
with strong salt water, the slacking
being done just as it is used, a layer of
leaves (wetted if dry) six inches deep
should be put in the' pen and tbe freshly
slacked lime sprinkled over it, then
another similar layer of leaves with
more lime, and so" on till completed.
Either otik or pine leaves may be used,
or a mixture of the Lwo. In place of
lime, unleached ashes may be used if
<o be had; twelve to fifteen bushels of
ashes in place of the ten bushels of
lime. It would be well to cut down
and rebuild the heap after it has stood
iour or nve weeKs.
Such compost should form the basis
only of a manure, an addition of acid
phosphate and cotton seed to be made
to it as it is about to be applied to the
soil. The quantity of these to be added
should be such that each acre should
receive of the phosphate from 200 to
400 pounds, and of meal from 100 to
200 pounds. The quantities first men
tioned on ordinary land, the last or
larger quantity on that in high condition.?

"From the lirst Goodies was all 1
there. He had as many points as Wall <

thing until my wife gave him a bath, 1
and then the paint washed off. This 1
nearly broke her heart, and I have had '
to engage the man who swindled me
to come twice a week and toucii Goo- 1
gles up. The man s;i}'s: 'Yer can bet
yer sweet life I am the boss fakir in

Charley, do look at him now, the little .
darling; look at his beautiful eyes; sec
how they express his love for mc.' I !
agreed with her; I rather thought they
glittered, especially the left one. I ]
was right. Googlcs fell off the stoop
one night, and when he was rescued !
empty was one socket. A little boy I
who was passing handed me something '
he had picked up in the street; he said
it was 'a diamond breastpin.' It turn- 1
ed out to be Googles' glass eye. The
love my wife had seen was in rcalit}' a
pinch of phosphorus.
"Googles then knew that he had
been discovered as a fraud, and no i
longer dissembled. His good manners
at once took wing. He deserted the
parlor anil his good mistress for Trenton
sausage? and the cook. His tastes [
were low and he sought the festivities 1
of the realms of the uasenient. When
he hud stuffed himself out with good
cheer until he could hardly waddle he
would go and look at himself in the '
buraished convex boiler to elongate his
figure. He is up to ail sorts of games, 1
and for a small dog can purloin more
meat from the butcher's and hide it on
his person than a melancholy Dano.
His thirst is of the best order, too; he ,
is a terror on the heeltaps in tho decanters.

all to no good. lie began to see things,
and as I passed him 011 my way out lie
bit my leg and went whooping off.
When I re:.died the club some one
said, 'Charley Lanjan's got 'em bad;
he's goin^ around with a pearl necklace
on bis leg; he is working the Duke
racket.5 I heard the remark and, looking
down, found a full set of false teeth
sticking ia my trousers. They were
Googles'.

"My wile came iiome one aay ana
said that tiicrc was to be a dog-show,
and that she had entered Googles, and
wanted me to fix up a pedigree right
straight off. I did it. I copied most
ol it out of Burke's Peerage, adopting
only the Christian nani's. It took better
than any pedigree 1 ever heard of,

wife made enemies of seventeen of her

The Bulldog's Grip. ^
One often hears of a bulldog's grip, ]
but seldom of a case where^ dog J
showed such tenacity as a bulfiB^ ex- ]
hibited at Wethersfield a few days ago. ]
William Smith, of that town, owns a s
hunting dog. A savage bulldog pitched 1
into mm, seiziug mm oy me suouiuer,
and refused to let go. The hunting j
dog, badly frightened, howled and j
struggled with terror, and tried to pull ;
away, but the bulldog held on to him <
with a death grip. The hunting dog t
dragged him, by the teeth in his llcsh, ;
across the road to his own home, howl- 1
ing for help. Will Smith tried to make
the aggressor let go by kicking him, '
but tiiis didn't make him wink. He

desired effect. The dog let go, and

YOUR KIDNEYS.
They Xeed Your Immediate Attention.
HERE'S A CASE.
For six long, dreary years I have been a
sufferer from a complaint of my kidneys,
which failed to be cured by physicians or
advertised remedies.
I began to feel I could never secure relief,
as I had spent two hundred and fifty
dollars without success.
The disease was so excruciating that it
often prevented me from performing my
daily duty. I was advised to try the efficacy
of }J. B. I>., and one single bottle,
costing $1, gave me more relief than all
the combined treatment I had ever received.
