JIM BLAUtt. Air?Yuku Dooulb. / BY ClP KUMT, Carolina is the spot The carpet-baggers tramped oh, Vntil the people made 'em trot, And give it up to lismpton. ^Wsde put on bis bottle boots. Resolved to mend the matterHe got away with those galoots, And quickly made 'efi scatter. 1 Jim Bit lie crack your whip, ' And Morton, too, confoundye ! Carolina's made the trip, And may the devil pound ye ! Ho took the devil by the horns With all his inicht and main, sir, And tread so Ward upon his corn*, The devil took the train, sir. Chamberlain?all in a stew, And blinded with the staggers? Vamoosed the ranclie, with all his crew Of rogue and carpet-baggers. Jim Blaine, etc.' The devil went that very night, Across the old Savannah, Resolved to tight with all liis might, The State of Louisiana ; But Nicholls took him by the tail, And slung him round (lie corner ; lie made hiin quail and take leg bail? In fact, he was a goner. Jim lllaiue, etc. Packard found it wouldn't do To longer try his hand, sir ; .wa He cussed n few, but toddled too, Just like a little man, sir. The devil he went up a tree And left his tail to find him? lie didu't stop to pick it up For Nicholls was behind him. Jim Bluine, crack your whip And Morton too, confound yc ! Louisiana's made the trip And may the devil pound ye ! Eight to seven is the game That got us like a daisy, It gave a name to Bradley's funic And made the country llaysy. At Washington they play it strong And in a mighty manner ; They play it strong, but play it wrong Way down in Louisiana, Jim Blaine, etc. Barchard had to deal the cards And did it all so handy, He gavo the Seven to his pards? The Eight spot took the enndy. Hampton made the devil flee Across Savannah river, And Nicholls made him take a tree And quit the South forever. Jim Blnino, pull your hair? Take a little brandy. Hampton has you by the ear, And Nicholls is so handy. Hip ! Hip ! Lct'cr rip 1 Hurrah for Yankee Doodle ! The solid South has mudo the trip? Hurrah the whole caboodle ! !! EXPERIENCE WITH GRASSES AND STOCK. Previous to 1852, I was farming in my native county, Laurens, S. C., but always having a fancy lor stock and grass, and believing that I could do .letter in Northern Georgia than in Laurens, I moved and settled in Cass County, about twelve miles from Mr. Howard, where I farmed on the mixed plan with tiuc success, raising as fine elovor as I have over seen grow anywhere else.? When I first began sowing clover seed, I found the prejudices of my neighbors just as strong agaiust the grasses as in my native ???? State, but my success stimulated others until that region has become a fiuc clover i couutry. I left there during the war, and after the war settled at Martiu's Depot, S. C., where I have growu as good clover as I ever sa?r, cutting one season three good crops from the same land, but I aui conviuced that we should not cut more than two crops, and rarely uioro than one ; as it robs the land too much, the last crop should be left ou the land. I have made excellent hay of clover, Herd's grass, and crab grass, and can testify that it is as oasv tit raise clover here a? an v. _ - - ? J - ?- - --- - * -- ? . J whero in the United States, it only requiring of us the same efforts made by others The main cause of failures here is, thai most persons try to get a crop of clover ami gmin at the same time, when the land is too poor for one crop. Clover should he sown on laud previously well cultivated in cotton potatoes, peas, or some cleanly hoed crop, I have succeeded better sowing in March than any other time, on land freshly ploughed ; and, after sowing, harrow again, if convenient, hut it makes but little difference whether harrowed in or not, as the first shower will put it in ; be sure to put 110 crop with it uulcss it be orchard grass; oats will dry it up aud ruin your stand. If weeds come up, all the better, for they will garrison the clover against the crab grass, and will not injure the crop. , I have raised turnips with fine success, both here aud in (leorgia : have grown three hundred bushels to the acre, with hut little trouble and expense, and have 110 doubt we can raise three times three, if a proper effort be made. We usually take up our turnips, and bed thcui like potatoes, and feed as wo need them, to sheep and cattle. Herd's grass can be grown here to perfection. I find it growing on our branch bottoms nearly everywhere 1 go. Orchard grass docs well here, and is the host mixture with red clover that I have tried, both ripening at the same time. We also have the Hcrmiida grass, and, from present indications, it will soon possess all the bottom land in this section, and the earlier the better; thou sonic people will have grass and hay who have never known the good of it ; and, for permanent pasture, the Jicruiuda grass, and the white clover mixed, will make about as perfect a pasture as any oilier known crr:lSiSP8 irri>u-ln? in ii^ lii.m os if the other was not present, and furnishing grazing nearly all the year. Everybody knows crab grass, but few know its value for hay; it rarely fails on well cultivated land, and makes excellent hay if cut while in bliioin and well cured ; in addition to these we have an abundance of Japan Clover, (L'spnlcui xtriiitn.) and other grasses, for sheep pasture, and 1 assert, without fear of successful contradiction, that we can raise sheep here as cheaply and profitably as auywhero this far North, and I aui almost ready to say anywhere in the I'nited States, unless California furnishes an exception ; and this mry be done to a considerable extent without diminishing the cotton crop ; but, on the contrary, by grazing the waste places, we add a fertilizer that is very cheap, the manufacturer working for nothing and paying his hoard. The sheep yields three crops, wool, lambs, and manure ; either of the first two will more than pay all expenses. Ii aving the olh r two clear profit. 11 is regarded good economy at the North, on mixed farms, to keep one sheep for every acre of tillable land. This can be done on nearly every cotton plantation, and will add to, rather than diminish, the cotton; and when other oropa of sheep feed fail, the oottou seed makee an excellent feed* I I have wintered our sheep entirely on raw cotton seed, fed twioc a day, at tho rate of *1 I 1- .1. - * ? a e I turcu uusueis to me nunurcu sneep ; even when wo have plenty of other feed, we usu| ally give them rouie cotton seed, of which tboy are very loud. Our sheep pay us uiuoh better, in proportion to outlay, than any crop wo raise, and if I had the uioucy, I know of no iuvcstincnt I would rather make, than to buy a few hundred Meriuo sheep ; I want live hundred on our little farm, and will uot be satisfied until I get them. As an evidence of the profit of the Meriuo sheep, I will state that wintering owes last winter eost me fifty cents a head, and twenty-fiveycarliugs averaged eight pounds of wool, souio going as high as ten, while our breeding-rams sheared from fourteen to twenty pounds ; this wool is worth in the dirt about thirty-three and a third cents per pound. Ewes having lauibs will yield about one-third less than those that arc without lambs, but always enough to pay for herself and lamb for one year, so the lamb starts out of debt and pays well as he goes, and never dies insolvent. The greatest drawback to the sheep business is not the want of grass, hay or turnips, but the dog and thief; tho former can be disposed of with a shortened biscuit, but the latter fur nishes a knotty question 1 can't solve. I have given several facts, and I will give a theory that differs from the generally received opinion of knowing ones; it is, that sheep are rarely killed by very poor dogs ; negroes' dogs rarely kill sheep without the aid of the owner; it is the fat, well-fed rascal that does the mischief; at any rate, this has been my experience. The fat dog begins the killing for mischief, but after his frolic is over he returns to take a bait of fresh mutton, when, if you arc in time to put in fresh strychnine, you will get hiui every time. The poor dog hunts for the crumbs, and dead carcasses. We have succeeded very well in raising cattle, but only keep a few, as the sheep pays so much better. I have lost more in hogs than any other stock, which is always a heavy loss, as they cost so much to raise them. L am sure that we ought only to keep a few glcaucis, and leave the bulk of the hog business to ten cents a bushel corn men; hogs will not pay where com is worth fifty cents per bushel. I should have added lucerne to the hay crops spoken of above. About four years ago, I prepared about half an acre of rich laud, that had been heavily manured the year before, and plauted in cotton, to prepare for luciruc; the laud was well prepared in the spring, I think in March, and the seed sown iu drills, eighteen iuchcs apart; it soon came up and grew off rapidly, and the second vn:ir wn nil. fivi> i-rniw nf 1?;iv wliinli I ---j- - - - ?-f- ? ?;t did not weigh, but believe it yielded at least two tons to the acre at each cutting; just think of ton acres in such a crop, and how many sheep it would feed ; hut the land must he made very rich to yield such crops. ?J. Wash Watts, Jiural Curolinian. A SPIRIT BRIDE. ti1e mauri ao e of mr. stillman of memphis to miss roberts of the spirit world. No event of the season has attracted more attention than the marriage of Mr. C , A. Stillumn of this world to Miss Alice | Huberts of the other?the spiritual world. This ceremony, solemnly preformed by the Rev. Samuel Watson over the natural body r ofStillman and the materialized form of . Miss Roberts, was, to the public, an entirely new phase of Spiritualism. While the city was panting for more l knowledge on this point, the Avalanche rep1 rcscutativc, armed with his pencil and ado' termination to show the utmost respect lor i these great mysteries lying so far beyond , his ken, issued forth to learn something more of the great matter of spirituo-carnal i intermarriage. He met one of the faithful who was present at the ceremony. To this seutlcmnn ; our reporter is indebted for a confirmation of the story before published. ' "You were present, sir?" 'I was." ' Where did the ceremony take place?" "At the residence of Mr. Watson. Did yon ever sec his cabinet ?" The reporter had not. "There, nir, is where the wonder of the matter comes in. It is shut off in a corner by a curtain, leaving about sufficient room for one person to turn around comfortably in. The walls behind are of solid brick masonry. Out of this small space the materialized spirits couie, about a dozen in number." "The bride was to hnvo married Tom More, had she not died, I believe ; was it Torn Moore, the poet? We don't know what Tom Moore she referred to, but she was pretty enough to be any one's bride.? She was the most beautiful thing I ever saw." "Had negotiations for the marriage between the spirit bride and Stillman been arranged beforehand ?" "Oh, yes. for some time. Two or three times before had the preparations for the ceremony been made, but th > bride had not until this evening acquired sufficient power to remain out long enough to go through the ceremony. She spoke only in a whisper, but her voice grows stronger each time she appears." "What sort of a marriage ceremony was used ?" "It didn't differ much, I think, from the ordinary religious marriage ceremony." "Now, is this marriage to hold in the spirit world i" "Oli, certainly ; she was very much in earnest about it." "Does it debar Stilluian from marrying now on earth ?" "I think he so understands it. I do." This gentleman then said that there was a subdued lamplight in the room at the time, and that fully nine materialized spirits appeared. The company present was composed of nhottt a dozen persons, and .Mrs. .Miller was the medium. On the same eve! ning this gentleman had his little child bapj fized by the spirit of a deceased Kpiseopal ; clergyman, who came out from the cabinet J j ii his robes of office, and, taking tin babe I - J -? ^5?v- */?He j?^l"in his arms, performed the hapfipwal oidi* V nance. "People who harn't learned the a bc n of the philosophy of Spiritualism, I'm aware, can't understand and will ridicule 0]c this, but to nie it is all a matter of knowledge?of fact said the gentleman.?Mem- tw phit Avalanche. hu ll" Proverbs for SubscribeA^^A ^isc tl son uaaketh a glad fatbcr/^mMQmjrgpipt i J fiaying subscriber causeth to j avgh.
