Fr'omt all parts of our District says' thei Shpart anburg ,Spjaton, we have thatterintg pr'ospects of a good wheat itropi. Yet, we hoar of rush aulread va aileetinug a portion of a large field near our town. We are sorr~y to hear thiis, as the wheat is only now headinug out, but with favorable seasoins, it is hoped that this vegetable disonse will niot be-.. (como1 opideio. Without somo1 di-428 ter', thec yield will be larger tha'n uasu.. ali. Our farmersi inform us that they haveo a good stand of' cor'n and the cot toni is generally up, but : the lato cold weather lhas tmuch retarded its gr'owthi. 0Our peCople, however, are hard at work, as might have been inferred fr'om the comtparatively small n nmher of' our farmer friends wahto wereo hero on last salcsday. Gardents, though a little late, givao promise of abundant and health ful vegetables. We ob servo that many of our, town people are engaged, more or les.s, in the cnl tivation of farms, and most of themn give lirontise of remuneraniont venn in our impoverod condition, wore it. not for the accursed Molook of Radi calism, we might yet live and achieve a glorious future. Mr. Davis and His Bail, The Macon Jcyraph very justly observes that the friends of 31r. Davis liave 10 comiIplaiit to make against the reqiuirement of bail. It was a mere matter of form, %;as readily giv enl withiout the slightest effort oin the part of the prisoner, and, besides, it, gave certa in cliracters an opportmi ty to ventilate their love of notoriety and :ppIiear miagnani 1m1011 after a li' spent in doing harn to individuals and the public. We venture tie as sertion that iloraceGreeley never be fore had his inme inl so respectable it eoinection. It was a privilege of which lie or any oif his tribe may well be proud. On (Ie other hand, the ide"a of ,John Minor Botts' signing his inlimous name to any respectable Southern gentleman's bond; we regard as lit tIe less than sacrilege. Mr. Davis boro two long years of i mprih:onment, soldiers' fare, endless Iights', manacles, the ceaseless tramp of sold iors, and even a visit from Sena. tor Wilson, all with commendable for titude, but we think lie might have been spared these last indignities in the nmatter of the liond.

E. Grinding Corn for Horses. Mr. Aditor: I havejiust concluded a series of experi ments in grinding corn for horso. Corr\ Zroulld into hiominy, such as we use forI the table, will increase in bulk not less than 25 per cent, or in other words, 100 bushels ground as above will make .126. This wau the smallest inorcase shown during ily ex. periuenting, several lots gaining much more. I have been feeding six quarts corn per head, four at night and two at dinner. I am nlow giving th1e samlie of lomniny with deeidvd improvement, ill faet, miy stook aro fattening every day, especially the old oness Where there is plenty of long Jorge, I pre fer tile holminy to meal, for the aniual ciews tile former, thereby bringing iuto play the mtscles of' the jaw and mouth lle.essary for the expision of tie requisite ailloulit of saliva to miix with tile food ; the latter (i. e. meal) would probably do better where it was intended to cut forage and mix-hlere the cut forage would furnish sub. sistauce for action of tile jaw. I have nto hesitation in saying that I am mavin- 25 per cent by grinding, even uupposing that I paid o tenthI for toll. I commend tie above to ily fellow starlatinists of tio South. It is alost as important as tile "convention" question. I use a four-horse engine and one of McCreigh t's incompara blt -'reverse grist mills," which easily turn out 10 hiushels per hour. Yours, T. V. Woopw.inn Local Items, The Picnic, the News and "L." Whilo prostrated with disease, a critique upon the report made by th' N'ews of t1 Picnic of the 3d in ant, appeared i. this paper. A friend called our attention to it, and wo sont to the c 'cc for a copy of the paper colitailning it. We were surprised to see what an unfair view had beei taken by "L" of the brief report wo made of that Pic nie. The English language is made to little purpose, if "L" can really say that "persons who did not attend, will "of course form their opinion by what "was said, and that opinion must be "that the whole affair was a failure," when we stated that "cvry thing went o/?VeJry successfully." We sa id uncrly all the pieces wore "repeated ill a low tone of voice," and wheI we -selected "One child from "alnong so many," we m1ado 110 col) parison at all. We havo no apology to make for the brief report, hecauso we gave no offence from intentionl. We thought the critique of "Li" no uni-called for, tlhat we dlid not enquire wh~o "L"s' is ; nor do we initend tionw who it is, if we can hlelp it. *We have made a special request of those who hlad charge of thle ofhico during our sickness, in whlich timoe "IL" appeared, thlat they ill not tell us the name of tihe correspoandenlt. Wre did appreeiate "the0 sweetness "anld airtlessnoess of thle chlr, but still we did not hear whlat every one said. WeT hopo "IL," and all who think we reported "the whiole affair was a fail uire," will read again the report made of the Pionio ini the Nmys of thle 7th in~st. If desired, we will republish it. We may add that our fooble hecalth prevented our getting a fuller report of the whole affair.. "I am~ growing 01(d," from the pen of Mrs. C.
