Jnfoeram Intelligenter. From the Southern Cultivator. On Manures. Sparta, Ga., Feb. 10th, 1868. Editors Southern Cultivator:?You wish to hear from me again, on the subject of manures. I do not know what to say, un? less I repeat what I have already said? adding the result of one more year's ex? perience; I am well aware many are de? sirous of knowing where to purchase, of whom, and of what kind ; but their lack of. knowledge is their fault?the result of not taking the Cultivator. Twenty-two years ago, (1836,) I saw an advertisement in the American Farmer, Baltimore, Md., describing the tine effects of Peruvian Guauo. I ordered three sacks, and tried it I found it to pay well I used it spar? ingly at first, being at that time the only one in Georgia who used it, so far as I knew. I continued to increase the .quan? tity, annually until 1861. That year I used of all kinds, thirteen thousand dol? lars worth; last year 1 used twelve thou? sand dollars, worth?being the pioneer, I lost a great deal or money in making trials of other guanos. At present, the people have plenty of light to guide them iit purchasing manures. See Dr. Hamil? ton's experiment in January No., and those of Dr. Pendleton and Mr. Davison in the February No. of the Cultivator.? The planters of Georgia and other cotton Sfcatea-oould save enough money, by heed? ing the lessons taught by those three ex? periments, to take one hundred thousand copies of the Southern Cultivator. It is very strange that the planters will not support an organ?yes, even a daily organ ?-devoted eatirely.to their interests. TOe-^plaijt^r. shouldMiot only learn to rfiaK??. money, but -he should be a good financier?learn how to invest it: First? So as to get the greatest comfort from the part spent in living; and, secondly, the safes^ Jnyestment, ^yielding largest divi? dends, too, that will not hurt any body, but be advantageous alike to those now living, andTto posterity, r Irom'my experience, I.will' give ray pfl?n; hoping that many others w ill give theirs, t am for an annual manure?a soluble manure^?one that will return the. principal, or at least seventy-five per cent of it, with one. hundred and twenty-five per cent profit, or double the investment. I am ia.fayor of an investment that never pleads fo?;time,"or complains of usurious interest, or calls for relief or repudiation, but will punctually square up accounts, with one hundred per cent profit. Such an investment is Soluble Bones and Peru? vian. Guano. Lend it to your land in rams of five to fifteen dollars per acre, at six'to nine months time, and if you do your duty, plow deep and cultivate 'shal,; low, the payment will be sure. Your land will be left in better condition?money ?will be furnished to put back the same amount of manure the next year, and am- j p]e,dividends made to live on and make other investments. The word "stimulate" is improperly applied to manures. Plants have no nerves for them to act on. When ? you see plants growing very rapidly, to which manure has been applied, do not think they are drunk. The truth is, the manure is soluble, and not permanent, and the roots of the plants are absorbing it, and.the blades working it up for the crop, riiavo no use for a permanent manure.? If permanent, it is not soluble; if not so? luble, it never will enter the roots of plants, and if It docs not enter the roots of plants, your money is gone. 'No manure is worth a cent, if permanent. The Atlantic ocean would not be perma? nent, if its supplies were cut off?if the rain ceased, and all the rivers were stop? ped. Supposing it level at the bottom as well as the top, and one thousand feet deep, still it would dry up in less than two mindred years?a shorter time than some lands in Virginia have been cultivated.? So} away with your permanent manures; Bnt be ever vigilant to save all home made manures possible, of every variety?pine straw and swamp mud included. Manip * ^late yonr sandy land with clay?your olay land with vegetable mould. Plow decpj rotate your crops, and rest your lands. Buy lots of soluble manure, and s^ve twice as much as if you bought none. h there a single planter who would, lend money to be paid in equal instalments of twenty years, with low interest? Yet, if he uses permanent manures he cannot ex? pect much better luck. Is there one that is unwilling to lend Iiis money at six and nine months, have it under his control all the time, and get prompt payment?re? ceiving seventy-five per cent of the princi? pal', and one hundred and twenty-five per oenfc profit ? Give me the manure that -will pay promptly, with good dividends. Do not be afraid that' it will exhaust your land. Put the cotton seed back, together with the manure from the straw, corn, oats and. shucks, with the straw used to save the manure and bed the stock; also ! what the crops got fi om the atmosphere. I would like to have my land exhausted that way. There is only so much corn and cotton in any manure, and the sooner you get it the better. It will pay. The loss will be ?maller, and only one year's work required. The same is true of land. There is only: material enough in it to make a given quantity of corn or cotton, and the great? er quantity "you get each year the better, j Do not understand me, that I am for ex-j j hausting land. Xot so. Each year put back ! more than you take from it. Accumulnte alargcioncl in soluble mould and other manure, and never let it be said by pos? terity, that it is harder for them to live, because you lived before them. Leave your land better titan you found it. Im? prove agriculture so that a given quantity of labor may produce double what it now does?double the capacity of the land.? Then each agriculturist will be able to consume four times as much as he does at present in necessaries and luxuries. J This can be done. During my day, the planters in Hancock county have doubled their crops. There were more planters in Hancock county who made ten bales per hand in 1861, than there were who made live bales to the Land in 1845. I repeat, buy Peruvian Guano and Dissolved Bones, and some salt and plaster, where the freight is not too high. Try on a small scale, (or large, if yon wish,) all pure gu? anos, and be governed by the result. For one, I will not touch a manipulated ma? nure. It creates a middle man, to com? pete with me in bones, guano, ccc. If there is anything to be gained by mixing, I want to mako myself, and then I know also that it is pure. 1 want no manure that will not pay without the addition to it of Peruvian Guano. Suppose Dr. Pendleton had mixed his Peruvian Guano with sand?half and half ?it would have paid two hundred and twelve per cent! Good ! But four hun? dred* and thirty is better! Planters, make a little money by the teachings of the Cultivator?take it the balance of your lives, and leave it as a legacy to your children. I say, for one, never give it up, but build it up higher 6till?make it a weekly and finally a daily ?not only that it" may teach you concern? ing agriculture, tools, machinery, <fcc, but that it may advocate your peculiar .in? terests. I would here suggest that every writer in Your paper should put his Post Office at the head ot tho letter?the name of his farm, if any, at the bottom. Very respectfully yours, DAVID DICKSOX. Alabama.?The following bill, provid? ing for the admission ol Alabama into the Union, was reported by the Keconstruc Committee in the House on the 10th inst.: Whereat tho people of Alabama, in pur? suance of the provislonaol act of Cen^ress entitled "An act for the moi? efficient government of the rebel States," passed March 2d, 1867, and the nets supplement? ary thereto, have framed a constitution of State government which is republican in form, and whereas, at an election held, commencing Februaay 4, 1868, a large majority of the legal voters of said State, voting at said election, voted for the adop? tion of said Constitution, therefore, " He it enacted, etc., That the said State of Alabamashall be recognized and admitted as,one: of the States of these United Stales of America, and shall be entitled to repre? sentation in Congress as soon as the Legis? lature of said State, ti e members of which were elected at the election mentioned in the preamble to this Act, shall have duly ratified the amendment to the Constitution of the United States proposed by the thir? ty-ninth Congress, and known as article fourteen. ^ Sec; 2. And be it farther enactd, That said State of Alabama shall be recognized and be admitted into the Union, upon the following conditions, to wit: That the right of suffrage of citizens of the United States shall never be denied or abridged in said State, on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude; and Con? gress shall have the power to repeal any Act of said State Legislature, in violation or in derogation of the provisions of this Act. -o DlCrXlTV.O^ THE I.MPEA.CIIMKNT CASE.? On this subject, the Springfield (Mass.) Republican discourses: It is not altogether clear yet whether the Congress will impeach the President, or the President impeach the Congress; or both, indeed. According to present ap? pearances it will be just about nip-and ruck between them. The brilliant array of counsel retained by the President are not likely to come before the Senate in any very apologetic, deprecatory, or bor row-loave to-be attitude. All of them doubtless oclievo the President to be guilt? less of any high crimes or misdemeanors in the constitutional tense of those terms. All of them arc thoroughly versed in con? stitutional law and in political history.? There is no doubt that counsel on both sides will find enough to say. It must be borne in mind that the strict rules of legal I trial do not apply in impeachment trials. New testimony can be brought in at any time. Special pleading is allowable. The offense charged is malfeasance in office, not technical crime. Hence a wide verge must be allowed to court, counsel, and witnesses. It is a sort of loose and popular court, consisting of fifty or sixty judges. The prosecutors are the representatives of the majesty of the people. Counsel ac? cordingly cannot be tied down to petty technicalities, but inu.it have a free range over the whole field. Just think of it.? Somebody will get impeached badly.? There is little doubt about that. Croup.?An exchange, referring to the fact of a doctor in Heidelberg and two of his assistants having died of croup in con? sequence of sticking the blood flo wing du? ring a successful operation of tracheotomy, slated that the disease is always curable by a very simple remedy, even* when the patient i? on the verge of suffocating. This consists, first, in applying water ?to the throat by means of a sponge or soft cloth, so hot as to be Very painful to the hand of the operator,-iustant relief being usually afforded. After this has been eoctinucd for fifteen or twenty niinutes, a poultice of linseed meal,; rolled up in a cloth, is to be applied whito-veiyihot," and left on for sonas.time. The remedies are to be re? peated ^h'ouhr tlic' attack return ; but the writer states after a long experience he has never known it to fail. Impeachment Trials. As valuable information on tho eui of trials by impeachment, we give thc lowing condensed statement of tho cinnati Commercial in reference to proceedings in every case which bat curred in thc history o? this governn to tho present lime : in tho trial before thc Senate of Jin Chase, of the Supreme Court, in 1 (perhaps thc most remarkable impe mont caso in our history hitherto,) House of Representatives did not att in the Senate chamber at thc prcHniiti proceeding*. According to the col pory records, tho Judgo was brough cscorlcd by the Sergeant-at-arms of Senate, (who lind served the process ii him) and stood at tho bar, whero he addi eased by Aaron Burr, tho Presic ol' thc Senate, who safa that the Scr was ready to hear any answer he ha< make to the articles of impeachment hibited against him by the House of 1 rescntalives. Judge Chase, who was and rather feeble, requested the in genoe of a chair, which, in corresponde with thc parliamentary practice in F. land, had not been provided for the prit. This accommodation being furn is him, he arose, and commenced read in plea for a continuance of tho case ti thc next session (nearly one year.) [ Senate refused this, but voted to ? him ono month in which to prepare answer to thc articles of impeachment During this interval the Senate ch) ber was fitted np for a prolonged and emu trial, in a style of appropriate i gance. Beuche?, covered willi erinn cloth, wt re arranged on either sido thc judges, or members of the Senate, long desk in front of tho Tice Prcaidci I chair was assigned to tho managers of impeachment on tho pari of tho Hot while a similar box was assigned to Juc Chase and bb counsc1. Tho rcmainde tho floor was occupied with chairs for I "accommodation of tho members of i House of Representatives. The galil ol' the Senate was opened for the iuc criminate admission of spectators; I below this gallery, and above the floor the Senate, a new gallery was tempo rily erected, under the special orders Vice President Burr, for the exclusive commodation of ladies. This arran] ment, however, was abandoned at earl}' period of thc trial, it being fou quit? impracticable (as naively report by thc newspapers of the day) to scpi ate thc sexes. Boxes at either end of t gallery were set apart for ladies attach to the families of distinguished pub cha rnctcrs. The House of Representatives attend throughout thc whole trial in a bod and Judge Chaso was attended by t most eminent counsel, including Luth Martin and II. Goodloc Harper. Again LU?ui wero pitied John Randolph, t able and .nou'tnonious lead:r of tho P publican party in the House, aud ti primo manager in tho imponc-hment, t gethcr with Nicholson,Rodney,and otu lawyer?. It was a historic and mernot ble scene. Thc venerable Associate Jut ice had borne a distinguished part in can? ing tho Declaration of Independence his native State of Maryland, and had c cupicd, for sixteen years, high judici stations in thu Federal courts. The pr siding officer of tho tribunal at whose bi Chase appeared was just returned fro his ha-ty flight southward, after his fat duel with Hamilton, and. notwithstandin the indictments for murder hanging ovt his head in New York and New Jerse; he presided with all his accustomed di; nit}', urbanity, and distinguished grace < manner. Thc causo was an importar one, involving tho conduct of an ctniuei judge of the United Stales, in adminicle ing thc law, hut especially pointed by il political bearing upon the party chang?: of Ibo da}'. Chase was a high toned, don meering Federalist, on trial before a ju ry t Republicans, for judicial acts (or rathe ppeoches) performed five y oars before. II was himself an able and profound juris and was, moreover, defended by tho mast ivo logic and eloquence of the best omi m en ts of thc American bar of that da} Tba managers of tho impeachment, lc by the brilliant and impetuous, buterrati and petulant Randolph, were no matel for these long-headed lawyers. Chase' counsel adroitly admitted that ho m ?gb have been chargeable with some ex tra va gancc of language in dealing with libeler and offenders on trial*; but they uttorlj denied that any offence which could jnstifj an impeachment hud been or could bi proven. Thc result of the trial, after multitude of witnesses examined oti.both sides, am three weeks of solemn forensic eloquence was a total failure of the impeachers ti secure a two thirds majority or: ?.v.y om of tho charges. On five of the eight lu was evon acquitted by a majority of votes This was a great triumph for thc Feder alists, and a deep mortification for tin more zealous of tho Republican ?inpeach cr*, who, with John Randolph at their head, wero powerfully disgusted with thc failare of party discipline. Randolph, in a bitter speech reflecting upon Judge Chase as an ''acqnitted felon," moved tc amend thc Constitution so an to rendel the Judges of thc United Slates Courts removable at tho pleasure bf both Houses of Congress. This absurd proposition, however, soon subsided, and the net re? sult of thc violent parly spirit developed was to moderate the confidence of tho overweening Republicans, while the trial itself undoubtedly contributed to check that spirit of domineering arrogance upon thc bench, which some of our early judges seem lo have thought needful to the dig nity of their office. In tho next trial of a case of impeach? ment?that of Judge Peck?wc have an instance in which thc House of Repre? sentatives, after, at first, attending in a body, rescinded its action, and remained at their own hall, in tho transaction of public business, while tho managers ol the impeachment represented them in thc Senate. Judge Peck was a Missouri Judgo of the United States District Court, and ?was charg?e! with usurpation and oppres? sion in otlicc. Janies Buchanan, ol Penn? sylvania, led tho managers, of tho im? peachment on the part ot the House, asssistod by McDuffio, of South Carolina; Judge Spencer, of New York; Wickliffe, of Kentucky, and others. Much ability was displayed by tho prosecution, but the defence had a still stronger array of talent, led by William Wirt, formerly the emi? nent Attornc}- General of tho United Slates. Wirt'a concluding speech, which occupied four hours, was replete with wit, elegance, and argument, and' sustained the closest attention of a crowded Senato and galleries throughout. The House of Representatives were present in a body, and John 0'. Callionn. the Vico President, who presided during the trial, pronounced the verdict of acquittal by the Senate, which stood twenty one "for impeachment, against twenty-two for acquittal. The trial lasted six weeks. In the latest impeachment trial?that of Judge Humphreys, of Tennessee, for 1 aiding in tho rebellion against the United States, in 1882?the proceedings occupied but a few hours, and the Judge was found guilty by a unanimous vote of the Senate. It appears that this case and that of Judge Pickering, in 1804, form the only cases of impeachment trials in which the parties tried have been impeached and removed from office. The Air Line Railroad. The Atlanta Intelligencer, after express? ing its gratification that public attention is being again called to this important line intended to run from that city to Char? lotte, North Carolina, publishes the follow? ing statement made by B. Y. Sa^e, Esq., Chief Engineer of the road, which gives many points of interest. We append the foliowitig extracts: I think the work on the road *vjll be commenced early the coming spring, pro? vided the negotiations now in progress ?hall be carried out successfully. In the first place, this road will offer facilities to a portion of the citizens of this Stale who are now destitute of the same, and must ever remain so until such com? munication is opened. This road will pass through its entire length one of the finest grain as well as mineral regions in the ^United State?. This, of itself, should bo sufficient to direct the investment of capi? tal to it, and open, at tho same time, new and valuable sources of wealth to the peo? ple, enhance largely the taxable property of our impoverished State. In a national point of view, it stands pre-eminent. It is the only line needed to Complete the Great Northern and South? ern Grand Trunk Line, as well as the Eastern end of the Great Southern Pacific Railroad, which is the shortest line that can be built between New York and the Pacific coast. Our route from Mobile to New York, is one hundred and thirty miles shorter than any road that can be built, being nearly an air line between these points. As a postal road, it lias many superior advantages over any other route. We are one hundred and thirty miles shorter, and have a maximum grade of sixty feet per mile on the present shortest route, which will gitre us a great advantage in point of time and speed. Asa military road, having the shortest line and lightest grades, and running near? ly parallel to the Alantic and Gulf coasts, and on the east side of the mountains, and at the same time being so far inland as to be ?afe from the raids of an enemy, and cros?ing Rtirl conuf>ctin,r, as it docs, with all the rivers and railroads running from the interior to the ooasi, it has no equal; none can be built. Troops and munitions can be thrown or transported to an v point on the coast in the shortest possible time. As regards the investments in the stock of this road, there can be but one answer to any one who knows anything of the amount of business that has heretofore been done by the great routes from the South to North. A glance at the map of the country will bi sufficient to satisfy the most timid as to the fact, and the feasibil? ity of the same. The unsettled state of the country hns retarded the work, and the great scarcity of money may for a time still delay the same, but ultimately the wants of the country will demand and force its comple? tion. A Beautiful Thought.?The sea is the largest of all cemeteries, and its slumber crs sleep withoiU, monuments. All other graveyards, in all other lands, show some distinction between the great and small, the rich and poor,but in the ocean eemete tery the king and tho clown, the prince and peasant are alike and undistinguished. The same waves roll over all?the same requiem by the minstrels of the ocean is sung to their honor. Over their remains the same sun shines, and there, unmarked, the weak and powerful, the plumed and unhonorcd, will sleep on until awakened by the same trump. -.-* ? "Tommy, my son, what are you go? ing to do with that club ?" "Send it to the editor, of course." "But what are you going to send to the editor for ?" 'Cause he says if any body will send him a club he will send them a paper." The mother came pretty near fainting, but retained conciousucss enough to ask: 'But, Tommy, dear, what do you sup? posed he wauls of a club?" "Well I don't know," replied the hope? ful urchin, "unless it is to knock down subscribers as don't pay lor their paper." - Excused.?A juror having applied to the judge 10 be excused from serving on account of deafness, the judge said: "Could vou hear my charge to the jury sir?" "Yes, I heard your honor's charge," said the juror, "but I couldn't make any sense out of it." lie was excused. .Lkap "Year Dialogue.-*Mist, will you take my arm'{' 'Yes, and you too.' 'Cant spare but the arm,' replied the old bachelor. 'Then,' replied she, 'I canj? take it, as ray motto is is, go the whole hog or nothing" -? ? A Berkshire paper says that a fellow in that vicinity went a courtimg his girl on Monday evening, and wishing to *>e conversational, observed: "The thermom ekronia twenty degrees below zclon this evening " "Yes," innocently replied the maiden' "such kind of birds do fly higher some seasons of the year than others. _ _j\ 'Westeni editor thus delivers him? self- We would say to the individual who stole our shirt oil'the pole while wo were h ing in bed waiting for it to dry, that we sincerely hope the collar may cut his throat. ? Riding on a railroad for the first time, a western gentleman, when the conductor called tor his fare, handed him a five dol? lar bill, with the remark: "Let the thing get. I don't want any change. Never rode in the keers before, and am willing to pay something extra for the fun." ?"Hallo, steward," exclaimed a fellow in one of the steamboats after having re? tired to bed, "here, steward." "What for, massa?" "I want to see if these bed bugs put down their names for this berth before I did-. If not, 1 want them turned out." ? If we were asked what physician stood at the top of his profession, we should say it was the gentleman who was in the habit of "attending patients on a monument." ? It is argued for short dresses that they give plain girls a chance. What na? ture has denied the face she often gives no the understanding. ? "A man who'll maliciously set fire to a barn," said Mr. Slow, "and burn up twen? ty cows, ought to be ki?ked to death by a jackass and I'd like to do it." ? "See here, mister," said an Irish lad who- was in the apple tree with a dog un? der it, "if you do not take that d?g away I'll eat up all ycur apples." ? The first evidence of a woman's in? terest in a man is her mending his gloves and the last working him a pair of slip? pers. ? "I feel," said an old woman, "that I've got about through with this world. I 6han't enjoy much more trouble." Columbia Adyertiseincnts.
