': ?_ "?nr!'-' ? W Swtt What Shall We Dot More than seven years have elapsed since the?close of the war?seven years of toiljand poverty with many, and yet the'farmers of the South seem not. as a das, definitely to have decided what they will do. In many places the .-fields He tallow or overgrown with brush and briars, either for the want of capital, en? terprise, industry or labor, and in some in? stances for the want of all of them. The fences are down, and the hungry cattle wander about over the deserted fields in quest of food to ap? pease their knawing appetites. In other cases, the. owner of land attempted in a feeble way to. carry Kin-business as before the war, by hiring-' largely tb cultivate the same area in the great staples: that he did in days of compulsory la? bor; but. in the large majority of cases such ef? forts have involved the proprietors in debt, and in many cases financial ruin has been the re? sult. In a few instances practical men have comprehended the situation at a glance, and discarding at once old notions and grappling with the difficulties arising from the disorgan? ized, condition of labor, have, by sheer force of energy and personal exertion succeeded in ac? complishing the most gratifying results. Yet there is no settled, well digested plaa by which farmers are governed, nor do many of them .seem to have any fixed purpose in view towards the accomplishment of which all their energies' are directed. It does seem that we have had time to recover from the stunning effects of the blow that fell so heavily upon us at Appomat tox. . It' does seem that we have had time enough. to determine what we will do. And yet the question that heads this article, is heard every day from the lips.of some dependent in dJfrldual. Nod let us see what we can do. I We nrot'confirre ourselves to the* cultivation of on? ly so much land as we can thoroughly prepare and afterwards cultivate ourselves, or with such labor as can be relied upon with reasonable certainty. We must manure as far as possible every crop we plant The supply of barn-yard manure should of course be exhausted, before resorting to anything else?then come in the commercial fertilizers, if money is at hand to purchase them; but they are rather too uncer? tain in their action to justify buying them on a credit. But there is another source of manure, which, while it is very cheap, is inexhaustible and within the reach of every landowner. Green crops should be grown to turn under, for ma? nure. With our long summers and great vari? ety of crops suitable for this purpose, two and sometimes three crops could be ploughed under in the course of the year. With these facilities it would seem that the course of improvement would be rapid and sure. The best crop per? haps for us is the southern pea, which grows luxuriantly on even very poor soils. Mustard has.been used elsewhere with great success, and rye'sown in the fall, and fed down to hogs when ripe and the straw plowed in immediately, thus reseeding itself from the shattered grain left upon the ground, and the process repeated from year to year will rapidly ameliorate the barren soil. But what we need most in the ac complishment of these desirable results is a fixed purpose and a definite plan. A farmer shouid plan bis operations as a general plans a campaign, giving careful study to all the de? tails, and determine at the beginning of. the year what crops shall! occupy certain fields and the crops also that shall succeed them, so that frequently he may begin to prepare a field for certain crops years before it is sown. Every? thing must be conducted with system and in order, nothing left to chance, ana no waiting for something to tuna up. If farmers would thus bring themselves to work by rule and sys? tem, crops would be no longer uncertain; but allowing for providential visitations they could calculate with tolerable accuracy from year to year what crops they would make and what the income would be. We would then no longer hear .of utter failure and disappointment, of selling out and going to the cities to gain a livelihood. On the contrary, when a man de? votes all his thought) and energies to? system? atizing and properly conducting his farming operations, the cultivation of the soil becomes one of the most fascinating, as it is the most healthful and independent avocation in which man eaa togage.?*Plakttlr aM>Fhr4hm- " ? An ingenious drug store clerk of Cleve? land,'who is a chemist in disguise, has discov? ered a new suicide article that not only makes him famous; but it will save funeral expenses and entirely dispenses with coroners and their juries, and robs sensational newspaper repor? ters of the pleasure of describing the corpse. The article is a combination of powerful chem? icals, and when inhaled, changes the entire body, clothes and all, into gases in an instant, leaving no trace of the victim, not even the life insurance policy being left. Several per? sons are missing, and it is feared that the clerk hi* been; experimenting On'{hem. ' ? Rev. Dr. Peabody, in an address at Exe? ter, recently spoke of the classic language, :ai follows: But these are dead languages. Why then put them before the living ? Dead indeed they are, and therefore, not like our modern tongues, dying daily, in constant flux; in per petual decay and renovation, but passed from death into life, clothed in amaranthine immor? tality?living in wealth and a power of expres? sion which no other language has approached, living in poets) orators,, historians, philoso? phers, who will never be obsolete till the civil? ization of which they have been essential fac? tors shall have become effete; living, too, in the numberless fresh scions that spring from them as fast as new ideas to be embodied, new departments of science to receive their nomen cature, new processes and products of art to be put into speech and record. ? A Missouri lady, who went over to "Slab Town," Kan., to teach a class, writes that she asked one of her pupils?a woman of about nineteen years?"Who was Jesus Christ?" and received for an answer: "Dunno; Ihaint much acquainted in these parts ; this is the fust time j I been here!" J "An Asp In the Boscs of the Victor." Such was the expression of the veteran Thomas Ritchie when, in 1846, General Harri son carried all the twenty-six States of the Union except Alabama, Arkansas, Illinois, Missouri, New Hampshire and Virginia, which adhered to van Boren; and' the popular ma? jority of Harrison, on less than two and a half millions aggregate vote, wan 146,000; and that truly "unterrified" old Democrat declared that Virginia could thus be denominated. Yet as the Baltimore Sun, from which we borrow the reminiscence, truthfully adds, in commenting on the expression: "Yet such is the instability) of politics that, at the next Presidential elec? tion James K. Polk, the Democratic candidate for the Presidency, beat the greatest American statesman, Henry Clay," and. the old man's prophecy proved true. Now, as the same jour? nal adds: "From Maine to Mexico," and from the Atlantic to the Pacific, there seems to be, with few exceptions, an almost unbroken cur? rent of Republican triumphs. The- only con? solation for the defeated is that which a Geor? gia negro suggested to his master, whose plan? tation had been swept.over by a tornado. The. negro was sent out to ascertain the. extent of of damages on the estate, and, after including the surrounding farms in his observations, he summed up his conclusions "by saying : "Mas? ter, there's only one consolation?it's a gineral thing." ? To-day, Georgia occupies, in I the midst of this general defection and desertion of the can? didates and platform of the party of 1872, the position precisely of that of Virginia in 1846, with this difference, that she is supported and sustained in her proud position of unshaken fidelity to the men and principles she professed to Bupnurt, by several of her Southern sisters, and a large and jrespectabie minority of all of I them, whose voices were not stifled, and could make themselves heard. ? v " . Never was there a truer utterance than that of the poet when he said, "Man spurns the worm, but trembles ere he wake The slumbering venom of the folded-snake." j ' Stre^aliha1 courage'everi cbmmOTd^&lpfecfl and forbearance from power, when only exert? ed in defense or resistance to wrong; and the South is stronger to-day, even after .this defeat, brought upon us by the defection of her North? ern allies, who dragged her into the position, for which they now seek to hold her responsi? ble?than she ever has been since the war. All that she asks now of the triumphant party is to "Be Let Alone"---to be permitted to tread the quiet paths of peace, and develop her commercial and industrial - resources, undis-j turbed by the mischievous intermeddling of the .federal government, if it will hot help her in so doing, and is determined to keep her still outside of the pale of the benefits showered with so liberal a hand on her more favored ?Northern and' Western Sisters. A magnanimous and'patriotic policy may disarm even the wasp of its desire to sting,* and the South never has more resembled her own rat?^nake 'than the "Serpent of Old Nife" I in this, that she never strikes except in self de? fense, and peaceably pursues her own path? when let alone. . " . .' I . Whatever the mutations of parties or politics may, bo within the next four , years,' when, an? other great struggle for the prize of the Presi? dency is to take, place, it is at this moment too late, and too early to trouble pur people about that matter. So, if the administration be pru? dent, it will make a child's bargain with the South, arid agree to let her alone?if Wise, to admit her to a share of the benefits and bless? ings of the common Union.?Savannah Repub? lican. : ? . Death of an Aged Colored Minister.? The Western jBecorderjJjoaiw'iMe, Ky., of the 16th inst., comes to us with its page in mourn? ing for the death of Rev. Henry Adams, an 1 able colored minister, who had been pastor of | a colored church in Louisville for 33 years, and for more than half a century a preacher of the gospel. The funeral sermon was preached by Rev. S. L. Helm, D. D., pastor of the East Baptist Church, and the white Baptist pastors' ana Ministers of the city attended in a bod/, as well as several ministers of other denomina? tions. The church watr crowded, and many could not get seats. < The deceased was born in Franklin county, Ga., December 17, 1802: was converted at the age of 15; was baptized by Rev. Meade White, in 1818; was licensed to preach within the limits of his own Church an 1820,-which was extended'to all other places4 in 1823; was or? dained in 1S25 ; and was settled as the pastor of a church in Louisville in 1829, in which, office he continued till his death. Not only in Louisville, but in Georgia, South Carolina. Louisiana and Ohio, he ,was known, and, as the preacher , said, "the testimony" was universal that-he-was a good- minister of Jesus Christ." Among his private papers is a letter of com? mendation, signed by almost every member of | the then South Carolina Legislature, which speaks in high termslof his character. ? ,...xT The.-Rev. .Mrr Gordon, of the Presbyterian Church, in'some^remarks at the close of the sermon, among other things related having seen him in the pulpit, in a church in Ander? son District, S. C., seated between two white ministers, some time about the year 1833; and also heard him preach a sermon on this occasion, from the text: "The times of this ignorance God. wiijked'Bt, but n<ro conynjandeth all men, eVer4where, to'repe^^ tfae'irmh'essions of which had never been effaced from his mem? ory. ? . : It is stated that his church was small when he. first took charge of it. It is now a church of over one thousand members. Out of it'inave gone six other churches and about four thou? sand members. He baptized over fifteen hun? dred during his ministry. Fof the past two years, though retained as chief pastor, he had been unable to do pastoral work, yet attended his church when he could. He lived respected by all w^p.fcgkw'him, and h?s dcat.hi&n?ourned "by all, white as well as colored. ? In making our arrangements to live, we should never forget that we have also to die. ! ? A young lady has brought a libel suit against her mother, as' the only means tO:get a mother-in-law. A boy being asked what name was given to residents of the. United States, promptly answered, "Taxpayers." ? The height of politeness is passing round upon the opposite side of a lady, when walking with her, in order Hot to step upon her shadow. ? The man who produces tJbe largest yield to area cultivated, with the least expense, and increases the fertility of his soil, is the most scientific farmer, however ignorant he may be of the fact. ?"Julius, what is a coroner ?" "A coroner, Mr. Snow, is a man dat sits on de people to see weddfer dey killed demselves or committed suicide." "And what does he do when he finds out?" "Bring in de verdict." "What's a verdict VI* "Why, a loflfe black pple^painted white on de end?now hold yer jaw, and don't bodder me any more." ? The great consumption of iron at hom% arid abroad has stimulated our iron industry, and in sections as far apart as Missouri, Ala? bama and Pennsylvania new iron furnaces are building, while those in operation are taxed to their fullest capacity. 1 he rebuilding of the burnt district of Boston will still further in? crease the demand, as iron will probably be much used for hoiise fronts, while for girders it is indispensable. ? Quinine now sells for three dollars an ounce. In view of its general use and high price it is said that a number of prominent medical and scientific men will make an effort to induce Congress to Bet aside a suitable part of the public domain for the purpose of grow? ing the chincino tree. The Sierra Nevada mountains have been selected as most closely resembling the soil and climate of the Andes, where it is now grown. J The Greenville and Columbia Railroad. The following is the decree of Judge Bryan, in the case of Charles Madsen and others, pe? titioners-for the involnntary bankruptcy of the Greenville and Columbia Railroad Company, which was argued in .the United States Court last summer: Vniied 'Stato 'of America, Eastern District 'ofI South Carolina; In Re. The Greenville and Columbia, Ex Porte Daniel, E. Scanneil, Ex Porte Charles Ma?ten?Petition for Involun? tary Bankruptcy. ; It will be seen that, the issues made by the pleadings in this case are as follows: First. Whether this. Court, has. jurisdiction, the State of South Carolina having, instituted proceedings as a guarantor upon- the bonds of the respondent, and in'the State 'Court, under which all the property of the CJdihpany has been taken possession of? > j Second. Whether the Greenvilleand Colum? bia Railroad Company is a corporation, subject t6 the provisions of the Bankrupt Act ? i .nom Third. Whether the interest coupons, severed' from the bonds, are commercial paper, and the non-payment thereof for fourteen days is an act of bankruptcy ? Fourthly. Whether .the Greenville and Co? lumbia Railroad Company'.was bankrupt and insolvent at the time it suffered judgment to be taken against it by default?/. Fifthly. Whether being bankrupt and insol? vent, the respondent suffered judgment to be taken against it, with intent thereby to give a Ereference to those creditors, or to defeat or de if the operation of the Bankrupt Act ?::?/ < % j Sixthly. Whether the respondent has suffered its property to be taken on legal process, with interest thereby to '.defeat .arid[delay the .'opera? tions of the'Bankrupt Act, in the case of the State ex relatione the Attorney -General, against ,the Greenville and Columbia Railroad Com? pany?.. . ;" ?' . ..' - ? i As.to the first question, I hold that whatever the interest or lien the State may have in or upon: the property of the Greenville-and Co? lumbia Railroad Company, if said Company-be1 baukr?pt, the jurisdiction of the Bankrupt: Court is not ousted because the State is a cred-. itor. , ; \ J" J ' As to' the second .question, I. hold that the Greenville and.Columbia Railroad, under the Act and decisions upon the Act, is a corpora? tion subject to the provisions of the Bankrupt Act. tt/p s^n?nifs j As to the third question, I holet that' the in? terest coupons, severed from the bonds, are commercial paper, and if the Greenville Rail? road were "a banker; broker, merchant, trader, manufacturer or minor,,;.vtbe non-payment, of. its coupons, for-fourteen days, would be an act of bankruptcy, but as it does not, (in my opin? ion,) fall within, any one. of these classes^ me penalty Tor such stoppage does, not attach. , t. As to the'fourth: question, (acting instead cf jury,) I hay.e 'not been able to find; the iatol?; ency of the Company, or decide that it is in? solvent As to the fifth and sixth questions, hot' hav-' ing found the Greenville and Columbia Rail? road insolvent, it is not necessary that I should decide them. ' , ??.'?{ I have simply stated my conclusions upon the issues presented, without arguing them, and: without reference to the authority-upon which they rest for support. Time, has nbt permitted I more. Let the decree be entered accordingly. , . r. GEO. S. BRYAN, , United States Judge of South Carolina. November 14,1872. Slates to be Abolished..?A general war is being waged against the uhe of slates in the schools of Germany. There is scarcely any sound more offensive to the human ear than the grating of the pencil on the slate, and when this is multiplied by numbers in the school, the effect is said to*he extremly .injurious .to the Serves of many children, and to leave evil in? fluences for life. In addition to this, the use of slates is attended with many other disadvan? tages. Children acquire a heavy hand by their use, and accustom themselves to a vicious hold? ing of the pen. Physicians say that the sight is injured by it. The slate is heavy and easily broken, and is a noisy implement in the school? room, besides being quite inconvenient to carry with books. In short, the slate ought to be abolished entirely, is the verdict; but it is a' necessary evil, without a substitute. Many ingenious minds have been seeking for years for a satisfactory remedy, and at last a practical teacher thinks he has found it. A Mr. Wagner comes forth with a sort of pasteboard that presents all the convenience of the slate, with the advantages of writing on paper. Pen and ink are used, as on ordinary paper, but the writing can easily be effaced, and the same board or card be used an indefinite number of times. The Saxon Board of In? struction have granted Mr. Wagner a patent for his invention,and he details the following as the advantages: It is more easy to write on these cards than on paper,*and a great economy of paparr;is thereby* effected in favor of the poor children'of the People's Schools. It is easy with them to acquire an excellent hand in writing. As proof of their durability,.a school of one hundred and sixty children spoiled only four in ten weeks. Practice and experience prove that it is more easy to learn to write well with them than with paper. They are light and elastic, and not the least noise needs be made in handling them. They seem in short to be a great step in advance of the many patent, slates on which pencils are used,- and will doubtless in many respects, prove a bles? sing to multitudes :of school children, store? keepers, accountants, and others who need to use quantities of paper for temporary purposes. ?Ladies!.

A warning is given by some of the North? ern papers in regard to the care of horses that have been suffering from the common malady recently so prevalent in that section, and now spreading at the South. The warning points to th^Ciietessjty of Very careful ^management after the horse has recovered from the first at? tack of the disease, as dropsy is likely to occur and produce death. ? A sensatipnal story comes from Sheffield, England, to the effect that a lady there has just met, in the person of a minister of the Sospel, a burglajr wpom she several,years ago iscovered under her "bed dne night arshe was about to retire. She gave no alarm, but knelt and prayed-sb fervently for the reclamation of sinners with guilty purposes in their hearts that the.burglar left her unmolested, and from that night ddted his'reformation. ? * r !
