SSverjr Cotton Planter Should Baise at Z/east Stock Enough for his O wu Use Tropical Animals, like Tropical Plauts, tho liest Cor this Climate. Gen. Johnson LTagood before thc State Agri~ cultural and Mechanical Society. In response to the request to say some thing at this meeting upon the rearing of live stock, I have not had the time to prepare an exhibit of profit or lots ia the pursuit; nor does the space allotted to the discussion, amid other matters of in terest claiming your attention, warrant tho going into detail upon the methods to be successfully followed. A consider ation of the balanco sheet, and of tho minutia?, by attention to which a credit is established, have most interest for the practical farmer when a new subject ls brought to his attention, or be is urged to resume a neglected branch of hi* bus iness. I will otiiy, however, attempt to present in this connection some general views, wl.ich may elicit from others an expression of experience and opinion more valuable perhaps than my own. I propose, too, to consider the subject FROM THE STANDPOINT OP THE COTTON PLANTEE. Stock farms pure mid simple, in my judgment, can be successful only in par ticular localities in our State, viz : those where alluvial lands permit perennial medowH without commercial fertilizers, or thoso, aa in some of the lower coun ties, where a "raugo" over lands of little market value may bo had. On the other hand, I am persuaded there is scarcely a cotton planter in thc State whose interest would not bo pro moted by a judicious attention to tho resting nf liva stock, and tho conversion of his pursuit from tho production of a staplo to that of mixed husbandry. To what extent this chango would bo judi cious depends upon hui special surround ings, i The minimum of stock that bis plan tation should carry may hov-aver be safe ly put at so much as will consumo thc v.'aste of his barnyard, with' tho summer pasturage of his lands not ander the plough; and to be carried through the winter upon the gleanings of his corn and cotton fields, with tho shucks and straw necessarily harvested with his crops. Without stock these products of tho plantation are waste ; with them they aro money. Tho maximum of slock to bo carried each planter must determine for. himself. It depends upon the npecial : adaptation of his landa to the cereals andi grasses, and the natural pasturago his unploughed lands afford. The facility and extent of his market ia an element to be considered, if bis Creduct ion of li YO stock iu to go beyond is own consumption, and the character; and abundance of labor availablo is of primo consideration. The cotton plea cation needs numerous haman hands. Machinery may do a large part of tho labor upon a stock farm, oat tho labor ers, fewer in number, must have more fidelity and Intelligence. White labor cannot bo successfully worked in gangs upon H cotton plaatatlon; it ?B well adapted to stock farming, and in any lo cality tho higher wages stock farming: can afford, in consequence of the email number needed, will always attract the1 best laborera, whether while or black.. Before emancipation^ our planters gen erally exceeded tao minimum above indi cated of stock on their plantations, without making upeolal provision of cereal and forage crops. In consequence, except in horses,, onr Btock waa inferior in aunlity ; but the abundance of tho BU only was nearly equal to our needs. Since tho war, tho abnormal circumstances of our condition have mudo home-made oncon ,. almost a myth, home-made beef and mutton a luxury, and home-raised mules and horses are scarce enough to be placed the in Bama category. The increased supply of cotton caused by tho direction of an Intelligent indus try almost exclusively to Ita production has, however, so reduced the price that our people are beginning to r . :.\ their error. They are beginning io i** .that nil cotton is a poor business, and that live stock at home ls better than Ilya stock on the prairies, however cheap tho latter may be placed on the marketa When we Bee tho day in which South Carolina nhall produce al) the live stock, cereals and forage used or consumed within her uoru??s, and her valuable ui?ple, rise ? and cot ton, so to market as the expo nent of profit, then, and not till then, will our agricultural industry be placed upon a firm and enduring basis'of suc cess.- ? . ... TUB BIND OP MVE BTOCK, to the rearing of which tho greatest .prominence should be given, is also a matter to bd well "considered. Of course it should bo that kind; whether horses, Hiieop, cattle. Or hogs, to which the local ity ia best adapted. On the average plantation all kinda may bo to some ex tent advantageously reared. They rath er supplement than interfere wit? each other. DKKED3. Upon tho aubjeet cf breeds, however, experien^ md observation have led me to very t Wkd convictions. South Car olina ia a aetni-tropical country";' tho ; producta of the warmer and the colder 1 regions alike grow and some extent i flourish within her limits; but the ex- ( p/mence of hw agriculture ?hows that ; tho greater success is met with In the culture of plants having their origin in j tho' tropica. Indeed, transferred to her i many instances improved in quantity and ? qnality of production. Indigo, jico and 1 cotton, her Btaple crops for two centuries, have this origin, and in the markets of ' the world havo boo?! ?4rie*red to thoso grown ia their original habitat. Tho only hay I nave known success fully grown in tho State for market is from tho Means and Bermuda grasscu- 1 tho ono of Egyptian, tho other of East Indian origin.. On tho other hand, wheeL oats and no. cereals of ? colder climate, upon landa of equal fottilily, do n?'?t produco so'woll hero os farther north, s Indeed, with ryo and oat?, which aro, moro than vheat, n epocial product ?of high, IatUades, there has been found but ono variety of euch which caa bo culti vated !>y us with uniform remunerativa resulta.

Of sheep, the brood tailed and tho Merino, thu ono of Syrian, tbe other of African origin,tb rive most readily with us. And iu catttj, the Brahmin are the heal th i eetandhardiesofnll thobrce'ls which havn been imported into this Stute. Our na tive or scrub breeds of cattle, sheep and hogs are of European origin and varied crosses. They have been acclimated through length of time, and are hardy and heal thy ; but originating in tho unimproved breeds of Europe existing at the time of their importation, and neglected in thier breeding here, are inferior in many res pects. Individuals among them havo sometimes rare merit. The trouble with them is thnt jf all conglomerate breeds, the progeny is as apt to breed back to some inferior auccator as to inherit the merits of the parent. Prepotency-the power to impreso itself wttu certainty upon offspring-exists only with breeds long established and purely bred. Tho Brahmin cattlo, from their association with tho religion of India, havo been kept os a puro breed longer than any other now known ; and they exhibit this r?wer of prepotency to a marked degreo. have seen tho pendant ears, tho straight hind legs and general form conspicuous ly shown in an ox, which I knew hnd but one thirty-second part of tho blood I in him. Tho broad tailed sheep which was tho sheep of tho Patriarchs, and the I thoroughbred horse, going back of the ! Crusades in his history, possess a like [lower of making their progeny. There s not a doubt of tho superiority for many purposes of somo of tho modern European breeds. Tho difficulty is that in our cl minto they loose thrift and hardihood. Tho problem is to appropri ate their good quality without the caro ? and lc'ig years required for a thorough climatisation. This can bo measurably done by crossing the imported malo upon selected females of our native breeds; but can bo far better done by nu infusion into the European breed of thc hot blood ot tho long di mded and pure bred tropical races. Tho grado is at once eli unitized, and renewed crosses upon tho European stock and careful attention will soon give you an animal equal to bis European ancestor in all desirable qualities, and nt the same timo ono nat uralized tu bis new hom?. These re marks apply more particularly to cr Ule. Thc Spanish Merino sheep for fine wool is unequalled by any breed hero or abroad, aud it is nt homo with us with out a cross. The broad-tniled is regard ed by many os tho superior of all others for mutton, and is a good conrso wool sheep ; if, however, tosto prefers ono of tho English mutton and coarso wool breeds, tho cross of tho broud-lailed ' will n??nmnlinh Ihn niirnn*Q of climati sation witt?out depreciating tho mutton or wool quality. Wo all remember what a valuable hog for plantation purposes thc cross of tho Guinea upon our native stock mado thirty years or moro ago. I am satisfied now the best hog for us would bo from a new and direct infusion of tropical blood into some of the modern improved breeds. This cross comes tous through tho Essex and Berkshire; but there is too much of the nativo English blood in these hogs. Long residence in a northern cliraatp has toned down tho tropical blood too much ; and tho cross itself for our uso needs elimatizing to some extent. I hove for many years made my bacon economically, and with duo certainly, by breeding Essex or Berkshire boars to nativo sows. The half breed was thrifty and healthy, a good plantation hog; fit for slaughter without extra core or attention at 12 to 18 months old. In my experience a higher grade was no improvement. Once I rolled upon tho pure bred Prince Al bert Borkshiro, giving $30 for my boar at G months old. The sows kept fat, bred freely, and tho pig looked liko tho orig inals of agricultural fairs. Wheo I bo gan to feed them for slaughter, first ono, then another, was found dead, until in a short timo nearly tho last one was gone. The diseaso was as mysterious as tho ex periment of pare breeds for bacon was novel with me, and I returned to my old g.wdes. There aro probably very fow, if any, pure bred Brahmin cattlo in this Btnte, although very high grades may be found. Dr. Davis imported a cow and a bull into South Caroliun in 18G0, which he after wards sold into Kentucky. I have seen in the columns of the old Fumier and . Planter a statement from Mr. Eadey, the I Kentucky purchaser, tb\il oiler six years' I of successful breeding, ia which he sold nenrly $10.000 worth of calves from the billi, ho sojd the original pair to Mr. Mc nation, of Louisiana, for $4,200, some thing moro than lie gave Dr. Davis for them. He claimed fer tho grades not only the superiority for beef and work which is generally conceded, but also high milking qualities and increased size. lam awaro that tho claim to milking qualities is sometimes contested, but in my observation he is right. I ouco took from a twelve^vcar-jpld cow in ono day, without extraTeed, twenty-two quarts of , rich milk. She was half Brahmin nui half Alderney, and would have w< *ghed fut fully 1,000 pounds. This samo cow bred to an Imported Alderney bull, pro duced a cow that approximated tho Al derney nearer in reduced size and small er quantities of mil. . Tho Brahmin bjpod in that case certainly did no dam ago ?O tuc milking- qualities ?f Ali?i-?i?oy, wnile it greatly added to in uizo, symme try of form ana thrift in tho grado. There is also' an opinion entertained in some quarters that the Brahmin grades are vicious and jumpers. I havo not found thom to bo either. Bulls of all breeds, well kept like ot al liono and boars, aro apt to become vi cious with age. Jf kept in large enclosures with aa many cows as they desire, -or brokon tn the Yoknaed worked, this trouble U decreased.. As jumpers, if- the habit is once acquired, thoP'.ahmin ia apt tooxcel, because of his superior form and activity. He has, however, no more predisposition to the vice than other cattle. Starting with a herd of any breed, in which there is no individual that hos acquired the habit, if a planter will pot gates to all his enclosures and never lot down a gap or a dip bar to drvo his cattle through, ho will not bo troubled with jumpers. The English people in training the colt that is intended for a hunter, place a dight obstruction in front of his hovel for him to etop over in geing In or out from his feed, then raising lt a little he In compelled to lump it ; when he doss this well it is raised again, until eventu -i?-J ?.??I.?i>???i?Wi rf tl ; out hesitation ano! c?earctf in his strido by the finished hunter. Is this not ex actly the process of the slip bar and gap? The lazy cowherd never lets* down more bars or rails than ia necessary to get his herd into tho field; and when, their edu cation is completed, he nce? let down none. A slight infusion only of the Brahmin blood is required to acclimatize the breeds of a colder climate, exempting them, from the murrain or malarious fe ver usually go fatal to such i?S^rtS?O???. That distinguished naturalist, tho late Dr. Baehmnn, of Charleston, is quoted as authority for the assertion that as little ss one-eighth or one-sixteenth of the blood will accomplish the purpose: ryr ^jatia UIVJLKS OF BREEDING. l" Observation and oxporlence have es tablished, as tho fundamental rule of breeding, that "like will produce lik* or tiie likeness of an ancestor." \ ja thora is great uniformity among the members of a species, ss in long estab lished and purs breeds, the divergence from tho average type is small. With Brahmin cattlo, or broad tailed ot Merino sheep, the coupling of parents always produces a Bran min, a broad tailed or a Merino ; and tho divergence ie generally doo, where it occurs, to the oflapring oiroamstanco the breeder ron control. Bot in breeding grades the tendency ia "oast-antly to recur or the other pt original types--preferabljr, however, to the higher type when there Is Inequality BSDHSDi in tho first croa?. Selection should therefore be constantly made of the fe male grade to be bred from, and grade sires, when it can be -avoided, should not be used ; for tho superior influence on tho progeny of the malo is beyond dispute. I A persistence in this course for genera tions with all the characteristics desired, and then the members may and should I be inter-bred to retrain theso qualities. It follows too from these facts that nu- ! merolia crosses should bo avoided. Make tho ono cross that is desired, and then i breed back to the original type you pre fer. Indiscriminate crosses will rv- -nit in a stock ot' animals whono progeny will he I as varied as there are crosm? in tho blood. 1 and it will be impossible beforhand even I to nummo which ancestor is to bc per petuated. This tendency to breed back, while tho foundation upon which the breeder relies for keeping u; the excel lence of his stock, is also ut times tho grentost difficulty in bis way ; for tho bad qualities and peculiarities of the ances tor are as apt to bc recurred to as the good. Madam Touson, a celebrated thorough bred brood marc, is said to have been a bay with star in forehead, and this ain gular peculiarity: her ears when nt rest were in position liko other horse?, hut when thrown forward fell horizontally, and tho points nearly touched. My fa ther brou a filly eighth iu descent from this maro, in which the peculiarity of tho tara for tho first lime recurred. The filly, too, wa? a bay willi star in the fore head, though her four immediate pro genitors were chestnuts, and that color had become a distinguishing mark of thc family. In tho laid century Diomed dis tinguished himself upon thc turf and in the stud in England. Some of his colts proving obstinate and restive, he went out of fashion as a stallion, and was sold to America, where ho was bred to imported Castianira, who was then blind. The ?iroduce was tho renowned Sir Arch. In Jir Archy, and os far ns I am informed, iu his best son, Timolson, there was no trouble with temper or eyes, though the Archy stock when inbred aro said almost always to have shown in their eyes the lat ent taint. With Boston, tho best son of Timolson, both tho bad eyes and bad temper reappeared. Loxington, Boston's best son, was blind nt fire years old; and of lexington's get, bad eyes aud bad temper, tho ono or the other, or both, see.n to mark those which havo excelled most either on tho turf or in tho stud. Thus, in the best strain of race-horses in America, tho merits and demerits of its ancestry aro alike perpetuated. The prohibition of tho moral law againHt incestuous intercourse in the human family has lcd to prejudice against it with animais. Among nil n.nirn rinnu nnimulu I w>'?/,.un r- t.llA Utmntr. ."-, _U-, -__-.la cst and moat courageous malo retains possession of his herd for two or three Senerations ; his daughters and grand aughters have assumed tho duties of maternity beforo a younger and moro vigorous rival has displaced him. It is generally thought by tho best breeders thut, provided wo do not carry in-and-in breeding beyond the limit thus indicated by nature, it is not injurious, but on tho contrary may bo s"inetiuica advantage ous in intensifying the qualities of the straiu. A neighbor of minc bred his farm horses in this way. Ile had a horso who was sire and grand sire of his mato in the ?arno team. With thc two animals before, mc, I could seo no depre ciation ; and their general similarity in appearance was remarkable. I bred a fine black and tan smooth-huircd terrier bitch to a Tery superior tan dog of the sumo varie'.7, and reserved a tan bitch whelp that proved small, timid and with out character. Tho latter bitch waa then bred back to her sire, and two dog whelps reserved, which, when grown exhibited thc size, courage and all tho fine qualities of tho original dog. They were so much alike in appearance, that although they wero pets and my daily companions for a length of time, if unexpectedly called upon I could not quickly tell Billy from William (for so they wore called,) nor William from Billy. A directly incestuous cross ia found in the pedigrees of some of the most noted horses on the turf; whilo others hare been the produce of brother and Bister. The latter crops produced Henry, tho competitor of Eclipso in tho four mile contest, which is still regarded as ono of the greatest performances on tho Ameri can turf. His sire nnd dam were both hy Diomed. Henry, with overweight for his actual agc, won thq_first heat; and in the opinion of John .itaodoioph, Wm. lt. Johnson and other turfmen, could havo won either of the succeeding heats had hu been ditr rently jockeyed. I thiuk in-and-in-breeding unlikely to do damage when both animals are good ; and far better than an out-cross from au inferior auimal. Twice, however, is a limit beyond which no breeder has ventured a recommendation to go. Twice in and once out is the accepted rule. One of the moat singuinr of tho recog nized principles of breeding is tho influ ence of imagination in tho dam, and of strong temporary nervous influence in either parent. The influence or tho im agination seems to Lave been known for a long time, ns instanced in the incident of Jacob's sharp practice upon his father - in-law, and many curious instances in modern times have been recorded, when it boa affected colo.. Ono exhibition of thu tiffed of iui?gl??ti?u very annoying to tho breeder ia tho becoming epidemic in herds of abortion. With mares it is unsafe to permit ono to foal in prey ...co of another who has not reached nor full time. A singular instance of the effect of a nervous shock upon tho dam occurred with imported Marigold, the property of Mr. P. G. Stoney of this State. When pergnnnt with ho cccoud foal she received a severe cut in the eye from an oyster shell thrown by a little negro. Tho eye was not put out, but a permanent scar remained. The foal she was then bear ing wau dropped at ils full time with but ono eye. lier two succeeding foals, ono of which was tho celebrated rncor Jeff Davis, also each came with ono oyo. Afterwards she brought two colts with out tim defect. Having proposed to confine myself for plantation purposes, and having recom mended to tho planter the breeding of grades, I will, in conclusion, mention some of the othor principles of breeding which aro of imports JCC, chiefly when pure breeds are the object. These are generally stated OB foll?wa: First. ?uy variation from the establish ed type in the form, disposici?n or babita of a species may be perpetuated and in tensified by careful selection . and use. Were it not for the existence of this law there could be no improvement in a breed once thoroughly established. Second. Hereditary qualities are liable to bo strengthened or weakened by uso or disuse. Tho thorougbred, the trotter, or the pointer whose families havo not been trained for two or throe generations, and who himself ls not trained, will fail in most cases to transmit his peculiar qual ities in their original excellence. Third, and the last to which I shall refer. The influence of the first impreg nation seems to extend to subs?quent ones.. This hi especially the caso-in tho equine genus. In tho College of Sur geons io England is preserved a aeries of examples when the markings of the male rjuagga when united with common mare are continued clearly for three foals sub sequent to that of which the quagga was the actual eire. So thoroughly is this principio recognized with brcedors for the turf nowadays that few would ven tare with confidence upon a mare whose first conception waa from the embrace of a jack, or even a cold-blooded horse..

It is for tho honest Democrat os against tho dishonest Republican, and for tho honest Republican as against tho dishonest Denio ciat. It does not tako Its eua from tho utterances of any politician or poli.ic.il organization. It gives its support unreservedly when men or measures uro in agreement with tho Constitution and with tho principles upon which this Republic was foun ded for thu people.
