Han. die-add gin carefully, and pack neatly, and hapltoanarket while the roads are good, and .lie sure and sell it as fast as you can get 1( or 12 cents,-and don't forget the printer. Corn should now be gathered and stored as-ay in the shuck. ~Turnips must be kept clean from grass by hoeing or hand weeding. Sow barley, rye or wheat, or mixture ol these freely, to keep the colts and calves in geod order during the winter. Prepare to sow large crops of oats and wheat,-one acre of either well put in is better than two half done. Gather all the peas you possibly can, for they will be scarce as ever next spring. Potatoes should be dug the day before the 4zrs killing frost. Cut some of the vine! and bank them as soon as cut, as-you would tliepota'toes, for early transplanaing the nexi season. Save seed also from the blooms, which are in small podse, to sow early in the spring. Also remember to make hay of the vines-by - curing them wvell.- for stock ini winter. Save also your pinder ines for the mileb cows-and dont forget -to make choice but Ler and cheese.

THE GREAT GEORGIA FAIR. *- ATLANTA, GA. Sept. 15, '855. We have spent a hot, disagreeable, dusty weelt here, in the midst of the immens4 crowd which havei thronged every habitabhl glace about ths great Southern thoroughfare during the Georgia State Fair, which has closed to-day. Mingling.- with the people there is much to bo seen and more to hi heard. -Georgia is now in a hubbub of po. litical heat. Every thing is boiling in the politic~al cauldron, and the material is likely fe make no savory mess. Maine Liquor Law, .Know Nothing,. Union-loving -Republicar Democracy, represented by Overby, An drews and Johnson, the Gubernatorial can didates, are all throwing out their over-exci. ted-attractions, and the very atmosphere is redolent with the follies of a contest whieli has no principle at stake. 'The Knowv Noth ings makue a hard fight, but privately give up the contest, as the faction is nearer its gas; in Georgia-than the papers would lead us tc beliewe.' But enough of this kind of news, for we -N$ down to scrawl you a line enneernina other- industry than that which is bestowec on political machinery here. The Jubilee ol the Georgia Agriculturists has been well at tended, but in most departments has taller far short of the fairs of other years.- This has been the result of the inauspicious time selected, and the intense heat, which resului from a drought prevailing here, which pre iented much fine stockifrom being presented Tiue showv of Devons urats contributed alto, gether by Mur.' Peters, and draughts muude fr his celebrated stock, as well as thr .swe,-which consisted of the Berkshire and Essex breeds. Our old friends, Cols. J. W Watts and J. .M4. Young. (formerly of Lau rens, but now -of Cass county, Georgia, contributed Durhams from stock from Col Wade Hampton's and Col.1. D. Williams her'ds, -which were a decided improvemen upon this class of former years. Col. Watt was strong in Merino, Cotswold and broad tailed sheep; whilst Mr. -Peters showed a pn of superb South-Downs. In the animal way, nothing attracted one ttihe attention of the celebrated Cash mere goats, and their grades. All sorts o remarkable pricess were offered and refuse4 by the proprietors of -this great woolhet stock. Specimens of useful- fabrics of do mestic make, manufactured from their wool - were .on exhibition, conclusively showin1 that they are likely to become a standar< aniiml in the South. In the fruit department there was a mos soperb show. Fine apples, pears, plums, an gespes, shedding a, luscious -tint over th fruit Ihall,,made it the place of general at traction. We observed splendid specimen of grapesegrown under glass; from the grape - of your generous townsman, Capt..Lyons which caused beautifel liii. to long for etl-in this modern garden of Hesperides They were complisneadW with two premi .ums. The Catawba grapes of Mr. Charle kit, of Washington, Georgia, coualusivel' fotohadow that the whole of the middle an< pper sountry of Georgia and South Caroil u.will become great wine-bearing Gleld& Rr, it received an extraordinary premium in the shape of a large silver wine pitcher ss testkn'onial of his energy and remarks fie suce We never drieamed tlhhY tbh Cumatab rape could he bronght to suol perfection.- Several new apples of rarw merit and beauty were presented by ama tears, and we observed a superb native ap ple from Old Lexington, called the "Hloo sier," which received the highest ensdainma of the fruit committee. - In the field crops and grain 'department the show was meagre, sa.it is too early for much display in that line. The ladies' department -ws to them the centre of attraction. Mrs. Rowland, a fine specimen of the up country Carolina house wife, received a large number of premiums for domestic fabrics of general utility. ' She is the lady of Maj. Rowland, the whole. souled proprietor of the Rowland Springs, and in Georgia sets a good example of what Carolina mothers can do. The great achieve. ment of the ladies' hall,,was a silk quilt,.con tributed by Mrs. Dr. Fair, of Colombia, S. C. For richness of material, elegance of design, and beautiful execution in- needle work, nothing can excel this quilt, which seems only made to be .the drapery for the couch of a fairy, or any of the lovely daugh; ters of the .ioutb who shed the radiance of their beauty over this fair Southern land. In our bachelor's state, of solitary exiEtendd, itwill not do to dwell further upon this deli cate fairy land. A gentleman from Mont gemery laid violent hands upon it, promising to retura It with a premium from the Ala bama State Fair, .next month. It received the highest premium given here for its class of work.- We could tell you of other mar vels, which met our eyes in industry and art, but our pen is wearied of its tastk. - * We observed Col. Summer and Capt. Dantzler in attendance, on' behalf of 'the Executive Committee of our State Agricul. tural Society, as well as Col. W. H. Robert son, Gen. Aiken, Messrs. Rabb and Robert son, who were delegates from the Fairfield District Society. Dr. Bachman, the veteean in science and natural history, was also here, and seerned entirely interested in this great industrial exhibition. EDGEFIELD. From the Plough, the Loom, and the Atbril. THE IMPORTANCE OF FARM REGISTER AND FARR ACCOUNTS. Massas. EDTOUS :--Perhaps there is nothing of so much importance, that is so much neglected by the fanmer, as the prac. tice of keeping a diary, or farm register, and a strict account of all his receipts and ex penditures. How many farmers are there within the circle of yobr acquaintance, who can tell how much money they have receiv ed during the year, and for what; whether the profits, if any, have been derived from their corn, hay, or wheat, from their horses, cattle, or hogs, and upon which they sus tamed a loss; whether their crops have been worked in due season, and with a judicious economy in every particular; how much corn, or its equivalent, it.will take to pro. duce a pound of beef or. pork, and what method or feeding will give the greatest re turn. I fear that,.upon examination, the number- found who could answer there ques tions correctly would we few indeed. And why is it so? One .reason is, the careless and shifdless manner in which farmers gene. rally maanage every thing connected with farm work. What would you say of the merchant who followed his business in such a mnanner; some branches or his business beiing attended with a certain loss, and unknown to him, solely because he neglected to keep a strict accouiit upon each branch t You would say, that he would be obliged to sell out, sooner or later, to save the eherifF the tro~uble. But the merchant, even in our small county towns deems it indispensable to success in business to keep an accurate account of every transaction. Then let the farmer adopt sucht a course. Let him keep an accurate account of his receipts and ex peiiditures, profit and loss, upon each iteni, and every branch of his business, or with every field. Lot him carry a small book in his pocket, and daily note down the various items of work for each day, together with such practical suggestions as may occur to his miind ; anid, my word for it, lhe will find himself much the gainer in a pecuiuiary point of view, while he secures, alo, much gratifi cation and pleasure in a review of his labor fromn year to year. The -farmer would then kntow at a glance from what crops, what class of animals, and what course of manage. menat, he receives the greatest profits, and on what he sustains loss. Would not this he a knowledge of the greatest benefit determin. ing his course for the futurei Let this prac. tiee become general, and the b~enefits arisin" from it would soon be mnanifest in the im proved condition of the farmting community. Trhey would be seen in the greater interest which would be awakened in those who now follow in the same old, beaten paths Iwhich their fathers trod, and who keep no accounts except such as they record with chalk. We should then see a desire on the part of farmers to possess a "little farm, well tilled," rather thani to add acres to their al ready large estate, which has been rendered unproductive by shailow plowving, scanty manuring, and a hurried cultivation. We should then see agriculture taking that stand which its merits demand. J. W. A. MEASUREMRNT OF CORN IN TIlE CRIB. After levelling the co'ln, multiply the length and breadth of the house together, and the product by the de'pth, which will give the cutbic feet of the biulk of corn; then divide this first product by 12, and the quotient will be the number of barrels of shelled corn contained in the house or crib. If there be a remainder after the division, it will be so many twelfths of a barrel of shelled corn over.

It has the natural Sarsaparilla taste. Its effect upon the system in All cases in which Sar saparilla is indicated is wonderful. It is a great afeguard against diseases arising from a torpid state )f the Liver,-or impure state of the Blood. Generally, it acts upon the Bowels as a mild pur rative or laxative. It not only mildly moves the Bowels, but gives tone to the system by restoring a henithy action in the Liver,and by freeing the blood rom its impurities.. For children it is a great preventive of worms and -supercedes the necessity of giving them so much worm medicine; at the same time it improves heir general health. A better and more useful medicine esanot be in troduced into Edgefield District, either for profes ional or fam.ily use, than the Georgia Sarsapar la.
