Con.--The present high pric(.s of
corn, notwithstanding the full crop last
yeat at the West-arising mainly from
the high prices of tianlioratiolon, and
the indispensable necessity of a full sup.
ply, Rdimonisli us to plant i large crop
of this gr(-at staple. Therefore, manure 1
heavily. plow deep, use the best. and I
heaviest seed you can oblain, and let
your after cultitte be of the nmost-thor
ough character-working often and deep
after the irst plowing, but, shallow Jier I
tho roots bi-gin to exteiid,.ko that they
n-y be unbroken. Imleed, these four I
things constitut.e the whole system of I
corn growing-deep breaKing up, and
epecially under the rows, planting the
corn lower than the general level. plen.
ty of manure fpplied, and a frequent
shallow stirring of the surface during the
growth of the corn.- See that you have
enough planted.
COTTON. -A Rer .your crop is well
started, pusht forward the planting of
cotton without dc-lay. D. is very impor.
tant to get an early 'stand, and much
may be effected in ihis way, by throw.
ing up the beds light' Qnd dry, and be
sore that you have good seed planted
If the beds are rough add cloddy, th,y
will be iinproved by a light harrowing
before' p iing. A tho otighly' prepar.
ed soii tter to secure an early stand,
than hasty. untim1ely plantiing.
Sweet 11otatoes, beilded last mowil,
will 4ogn b-giii 'to furnish "draws."
Good, fair, sandy soil, and plentv of
.nmilre. are the p'rime requisites for Sn
cess.- Iek your ground- very deep
opel .i1 e Mid. dep furrows-scatter
goodi, welI* roted manure, or rotted
chs, as"hes;.&c., thickly -'along in this
furrow, and .hruw on that a brond and
ral her flat bud-run 'ver this hed light
lY. with i ratke, to pulverize and level it,
ad you gre all ready for planting. T hie
dra ws" hdd,be careftilly taken-the
roots dipped. tn rk thick batter, made
withi woods earth,. ashes and,fresh cow
dung, eqtial pars, stirred into water, and
the blant set with a.."dibble" or other
stick, hbout 15 or-18indhes ipar,tin the
row. . If the, 1veath'r is very dry, plant
after 1. M-.'and pour a gill or so of
water'houid the root ot each "draw,"
hfaving only '(Iry'earh dn the surface, to
prevent too rapid -evaporation, from the
next'day's sun. Tho after culture con
sists in lightly scraping the -sides of the
beds, to keep the weeds down, and stir
ring the earth a little, if it sho'ws a ten
dency to bako or become hard. 'As soon
as the vines begin to cover the ridges
and spread across the rows, yo& may
lay %he cio,> by. Close attention to these
hints, (with the blessinig of Providence,)
will ensure a good field ; ahd the cr.p
ought to be larger this. year than ever
before.
Chinese Sngar Cane, for syrup, should
be planted as soon as the weather be.
comes settled atid warm- a little after
corn planting tiine. ,Thie people of the
.West, where -the climate is not so fa
voralge for this plant as with us, are
still pianting it largely, for the produc
tion of syrup and, fodder-much more
so than ourselves. It. may be planted
much later than corn, for a Syrup crop;
but if you want, also, an after crop of
forage aiil (perhaps) seed, you should
plant now/
Corn in .the drill, Egyptian 1hllct,
TIungarian Grass, and other forage
crops must. be put in largely--but it is
ent irely useless to plant these quick!
growmng anid exhaustive green crops.
unless you prepare the ground most
deeply andl thoronghly, and a pply "any
(lanti ty" of manure. Early crops of
Cow Peas~ maiy also 1)e sewn. For fod
de-r; we prefer to sow (hem ini a'dril
but if init.,'nde-d to turn under (Er mansure,

acres in Goui,ber pes, which will. be

Public Meeting,
Upon the ndjourpment of the Court
of Common Pleas apd General Sessigns
for Korshaw Distript, on Monday last,
Gen. J. B. Kershaw rose and rc(uested
*the members of the bar, the oficers of
the court, the jdror% parties attendant
upon the court, and citizens generally to
remain, in order that a public meeting
of the citizens thus formed might give
expression to their views.as to the poli.
cy of the course adopted by Judge Aid.
rich in declining to hold courts in this
circuit during the present term.
Oil motion of' Oen. J. B. Kershaw
Col. Wm. M. $Aannon was called to
the chair, and. Capt. Wim.. Clyburn re
quested to act as Secretary.
The following preamble and resolu.
tiona were unanimously adopted:
Whereas, his '4onor. Judge A. P.
Aldrich ha's declind to hold the Court
of Common Pleas for this District at the
present term, in consequence of the in
terference of the mailitary authorities at
Charleston to jrevent the execution of
the sentence of the court in the case of
the State vs. - Charles Fox, tried at
Charleston at the ,January term; And
whercas, the military authorities of the
Statq have, by.their general ordere, pro.
hibited all interfe?ence with the civil
c'ourts in'the exercise of their jurisdic.
lion between and in respect to the white
citizens thereof, and white residents not
c6nnected with the military establish.
ient with certain limitations contained
in said orders, which limitations em
bratco but few'of the jurisdictions of said
court; And where4r, the military -:ourte
are in and by'paid 6rders expressly for
hidden to exercise the jurisdiction per.
mitti-d t6 the civil courts, be it
Re,solvcd, That.. the refusal of the
Judges to (xercise thejnrisdiction per.
mitted them is not warranted by the cir
cunstairceS, would be subversive of
order, enrconiage lawlessness nnd crime
disappoint the just expectation of our
people, shut te door ofjustico against
our own citizens. and if persisted in gen.
erally will tend to an extension of the
jurisdiction of the military courts, to em
brace all blasses of. people and all sub.
jects of litigation.
2nd. That in our op'nion true policy
and Juty re(tuire that we should exei
cise overy privilege permitted us, and
that rulers, Magistrates and people
should unite in every effort to restore
peace, laiv and order to our afflicted
country, to which end nothing would
more tend than the reol5ening of the
courts of justice.
3. That'while en'ertainink person.
ally entire respect for Judge Aldrich,
we feel bound by gur sense of publio
duty r6spectfully to protest against-the
p6licy, wisdom and prop.riety of his ac
tiot. in the premises.-Casnden Journal.
TnE T.S-r OATI.--X was rumored
in the vicinity of ti, e Svpremo court
room .on Tuesday -norinkg, say.s the
Washington Sar, t) At there will not be
any decision on the constitutionality of
the "iron-clad," test oath. This is a
great disappointment to several legal
gentlemen from the South, who are an
xious to practice their legitimate profes.
sion, bilb are excluded by their inability
to tako the oa&. Th9y bad hoped that
the oath would have beeni set aside, as
it is no secret that five of the court are
oliposed to it. But one of these five
deems it impolitic to set. the oath aside
just now, and consequently joins the
Chief Justice and the three just.ices who
advocate the oath, in having the devi.
sion postponed.
