A Tremcdoue Lost to Planters.
The loss from inoflicient labor, or
ha" seasons, or worthless manures,
may be heavy, but it is as nothing
compared with the loss that will fall
on our planters next winter, if com
pelied to sell their cotton to pay
debts or buy provisions. Each plan
ter now hopes that he will be the
lue;ky man that will escape, but past
eapericneo should havo taught the
wise how vain is such a hope. The
whirlwind of panic and speculation
will sweep away his year's labor and
earnings like a straw, just as in 1807.
Tl eed, the beginning of this year re
seles greatJy that most disastrous
period that ever dawned upon 'a strug
'ling people. And the press of the
South is but fultilling a most solemn
duly, in warning against tho infatua
tion of the hour. With on0 voice it
reit erate's-avoid indebtedness, and
llant provisions enough to insure the
power of holding and controlling the
price of cotlon. To ntako a double
erop of cot lon, at a sacrifie of all else,
antd tihen be compelled by debt, or
frightened by panic, to sell it at one
hal', or one-third of its value, will not
pr ve a remnnerativo proceeding.
Better not plant at all, than plant to
inerease 'indebtedness. Those who
cann,t. procure labor now, may next
wint er have reason to rejoice over
their apparent inisfortu ne. The con
tracts, Ioo, being offered are not justi
tied by the past character of the labor
ers. but (we sincerely hope) may im
prove it, on' the principle, that, when
trusted, even the most abandoned and
worthless bare often acted in a man
ner worthy .i the trust. But would
i sane In".i, therefore, put his life or
preini tihe power of an outlaw or a
rob- :1 is that ordinary prudence '
We thi'.k not.
Nevertheless, we do not hesitate to
express (he opinion, t hat, in our State,
a p rovI'lion crop planted on any but
rieh, bottom land-b, will not pay, with
ou nnwnure, one hailf so well as cotton,
even at ten cents a ponnd. If, then,
clmpelled to plant without manur
a mon re-t wr tched aInd destructive sys
tcn,,-.-and if at all within reach of a
Co1ven ient lepot. for forage and corn,
go a head, plant cot ton, but beware of
Uxp,ct in;g a sulden fortune thereby.
It is simply the better of the two evils;
for if you can possibly make the ma
nnro, or have cotton seed on hand,
provisions should not be neglected.
Gold a Good Inyestment.
To buy plantatiot? supplies of all
sorts now, when they are low and can
he convoniontly hauled, without in.
t.erruption to the culture of the grow
ing crop, would in many oases be the
hst posible investment. To others,
owing to the rattago, waste, and stoal
agi', ill thle famnil iar forms of ncgr'ongo
andu over'serago, such a purchase
wouldl be anything but a sa'vinug. In
deedi, we lknew of a fine imnager', whlo
beid, that it was chealper' in the cnd
to bny1 suipplies, when and as they' were
needed, and11 we do not doubt tbat, in
ord(liaary sceasons, he was right.
Shelled corn, for instanoc, badly stor
ed, may cost a planter one or two of
his mi ales. 11:11)n, badly stored, may
spoil. And oveiryth ing badly guard
eil, is subhject to neoaf. eid'
in or'd iniiry seasons, pr'ices frequently
in t he suunnerlC favor the buyer, and
be thus both gainls on the price and
saves interest.
D)uring tlhis rsennon, prices will ro
bably steadily increase. It is there
tor'e, a giood policy for thloso who can,
to buy at onlco, if sure of good stor
ago and ofl'eotual guarding. But to
thlose who are perfectly sure of the
exact. contriar'y, who know thlat they
cannout safely store 1nor seem ely guard,
we suggest an inv)~estme)nt of their
money in gold. or' whllat is much bet
ter', a loan of it upon a g'old b,asis,
bearing inter'est, to theo tirml that usu)
ally supplies t hem dur'ing thle y'ear.
A mlomnent's attention will convine
a pilanter of theo great u'aatage of
taking this advice. While the cotton
is being moved, the demand for cur
roney is so strong, that, as compared
with gold, for three years past, it has,
inv'ariably risen in vaIluo, so that at
this season of the year it will buy
more gold coin thlan in the s)umer
mfonthls; or conversely, gold obtained
now, will purchase more curreney
neCxt summern01. The gain to thle plati
tel' will be about ten per cent, in six
mionths. The following quotations
from a reliable table prove it.

Saturday, according to a dispatch from
Chicago, a bill was itirodneed into the d
State Legislature of lliniois and passed by .
a vote of seventy-eight to nine, fihe object
of which bill being to separate the city of a
Chicago from the State of Illinois and to
hand it over to Indiana. What does this
mean ? Wo know that it has- been more
than once suggesled that New York City,
including Long Island, Staten Island add
Coney Island ,ihotuld be cit1I off from New f
York State and cotnst it utedi a separate State.
This is intelligibule. New York State is
Riepublican, New York City and the adja
cent. islands are Deimocratio. No suchl dif
ference, however, exists between Chicago t
and the State of Illinois. The city is qulite
as sirongly llopubllican as the State. What
ecin this proposed separation mean ? We 1'
can only tundersiand It by siupposintg that in
the Iniquity of Chicago has beconmo so mon.. ri

WoodrsoEKsR.-It is a common piaotice
nearly every farm to wage - relentless
ir against woodpeckers, on- the pretext
at they destroy corn. That tite poor
rde may have a showing, we transfer this
ragraph in their defense from an ex
ange. It says:
"We have seen planters killing the wood.
oker for sport. They are regarded as a
isance, because they peck holes in the
uck, and are charged with eating young

done them. If you will go to every ear

u will find that a worm has been there

enuse the woo-pecker has taken it otf the
r and swallowed it. Insteud of eating
mr c'.rn, it will protect it from the worm.
e is, therefore, yocr friend and not your

If this be true, we hold that farmers who

Wednesday, 3d inst., near Ridgeway,
of 31iss El iza J. Davis, cl.l(est daugh
ter of \ir. Wylie J. Davis, in the 20th

the qluict calmness that showed a true

the God she was so soon to meet.
She had long been a member of the

Trouble All Round.
An Eastern editor says that a man
in New York got himself in troublo
by marrying two wives. A Western
editor replies that, many men in that,
section have done the same thing boy
marrying one. A Northern editor re
torts that he knows a number who got
into trouble by inerely prot ising to
matirry. And we know of a negro man
who married a white woman, (one
who pretended to white,) who had se
rious trouble to get rid of her.
A Cura for Waits and Coins.
Warts are very troublesome and
disfiguring. The following is a perfect
cure, even of the largest, without leav
ing any senr. It is a Frenehman's
prescription, nud 1 as been tested by
many : Take i small piece of 1a'M
beef, steep it all night in vinegar, cut
as much from it asq will cover the wart,
tie it on it, oi, if the oxeresencee is on
the forehemld. fausteni it on with stri ps of
sticking plaster. It may be remtoved
in the day, a d put on every tiight.
In one fortnight the war.t will die and
peel off. Thie samie iresoription will
eure corins.
Newepaper Sponlgers.
An exchange makes the following
sensible remark3 :"TLhiere: are many
people in the world who make it a but
siness to sponge the reading of their
District pape w)Viithiout any expense to
themselves. They are found wher
over the paper is left--in a shop, of
fice, store, or barbor shop, and often
borrowing it before the o vrier hans
an opportuniity of' seein)g it. This is
(lone by very many who are abundant
Jy able and whoso duty would seemi to
be to suistain their' District pilper, by
subscr'ibing an~d paying for."

Malooting Cows.
Oine of the most dificult things for
I person to do in selecting ai c.ow i. to
ell whether le hts found a good 'me.
30lud one in Veiinont, i lo han 1muc1h1
xpericnceo in this business, offers the
ollowing excellent ideas on the sub.
ect.. They are well worthy of a care
ui consideration
"First, get a broadside view of the
mitimrtl, at a dista:Ico of. about two
rds, as I have noticed for years that
there was a great similarity in the
zencral proportions of all first-class '
milkers, being very small in girth
just back of their forward legs, as
eomupar^d writh the girtli j nst forward
rf their hip:. 1 never know a first
rate milker of any breed, not thus
proportioned ; so that if t iis form is
wanting in an anin:al recoinmended to
me, I do not care to look at her more,
unless I want a breeder for some oth
er putrposo than the dairy. For
breeding oxen I should want a cow
of reverse proportions-i. C., lirger
,irth forward. I next feel the size of
the milk veins, and trace them to their
entrance into tIme chest, which, in su
perior cows, are large, admitting the
ball of the largo linger ; if tlivide<l or
stbd ividede, as is soniotines the on+--,, f
judge of the size of oncit orifice, as L
are less for, the vein itself than the
~rilee. Next, I examine, by sight
ini tonh, the udder or bag, which
mnust' bo capacious in order ti hohl
much milk, with teats wide.apart and
free from large seed warts, or sores of
inv kind ; I then inq uire how long
Ahl g dg hlr;i&u c cal vin g, as I don't
want a family cow to give milk less
than forty six weeks out, of every fif
ty-two ; also as to the <tuality of milk;
ind to close, I milk her with my own
hands."
