Dsvvid Dlckao? sand ?tis J?elgrtbor? M?nsige. A Georgia, correspondent of the New York Times, writing from Sparta, Hancock County, *? Of ?ll th? oour kiee outside of what is called, &tr exosllenoe, the cotton distriot of Georgia, \thia Hancock County is the most productive, fiera reaide and plant Mr. David Dickson, Mr. Simpson and Mr. Turner with a comber of fltithful imitators and disciples, and nowhere ?gn there be found more thoroughly skilled tjotofessors of practical farming- than the gen 4 Bemen I have named, lt is incalculable the ?ood they base done in their neighborhood, mmt. indeed, in every part of Georgia their ex? emple and precepts have proved beneficial. (They have demonstrated the value of sci en? tino agriculture, of By stem sud of in celligen t Jadaatry, and-have exposed the wasteful folly .Of the old system of scratching the surface, extracting crop after, crop until the land be eomes perfectly exhausted-, ?nd then repeating the procesa, never dreajning of h~*mg manure, and believing thai br eaking theland more than ieoaple of inches "kills'1 it. The individual, $t?*e fable, who killed the goose that laid the solden egg, waa DIX? vi den t compared with the farmers of tho old school. Thousands and : thOdsands of sores in every county, now grown ?in stunted pines, and presenting a barren ? surface, were once good laud. They are cow the slaughtered geese that laid golden ^SSears, Dickson, Simpson and Turner have ? Kved that leading money to their land is the t and most lucrativo investment, and that , JfcproTiug the ?and they bave got paya better ?um buying "ne w ground" when the old is ex? hausted to bamnoesa. At first they were a xagaidod ?a crazy men. Ploughing the soil with ' two and four nones, and with large turn atong hs, and atm*mano and commercial fer- f tiliaere, were considered "all foolishness." It Usa thought they "must break at that buai aasjL" and that applying from, ten to t wen tv 1 Haw worth per acre of that "stuff that ? ?salli SO bad" was, in. itself, sufficient proof Of lunacy. After some time, however, it ap- , jSMaed that they: gathered and sent to market a much larger number of bales of cotton than their old-fashioned neighbor? . that their corn dibs were fuller; that they had more wheat in < their bins; that then* horses, mules, cattle, i Wagons, harness and implements were in bet- ] ter condition and lasted longer than those of . the primitive school ; and that they never , owod auybody a cent, sud always had plenty of 1 money. They were the first to use the com JNMuI manures liberally, and -the first to find I that it paid better than any other mvestment Ci capital to ase them at a cost of even $20 per Jt*k%i result is now that.no county in Middle n Areojrgia producen as m ooh per acre of arable a Jaad aa Hanoooa County, although the soil gen? ti .feaayis extremely poor from the ill-usage of " Maj'iiiln T71 II si i II 111 days, and no county in pro- J ration to its sise uses anything like the same ? Quantity of the guanos, phosphates and land _ "?, .David Dipkaoh who, I believe, commeno- p edWe as a storekeeper (dry goods, Ac. ) in this n Tillage, is now universally admitted to be the n um Cmt, most suoceesful and most intelligent u planter tn Georgia.' He is not by any means ?he largest planter, bowavet. Mr. Lcekelt, TJ Mt! 1*6 Jordan, Captain John A. Cobb, and ? atsW ia goothwestern Georgia, plant double ?i ttreble the quantity of land, own double ai treble the .number of mules, horses, ko., a employ very many more laborers; but at fl; and of the y ?ax take tho number of bales Ot Tag. ? acre of all the plantations, and Mr. Dick- ?! eonr incontestably carnee off the palm. He ?' -Asas*, from a baie to a bale and a half on all his " latffto and on parts of it produces as much p aa frire*? bales, or 1500 pounds of hot cot- ti tOns' To look at his plantation you are not b so?dt by ariy particular neatness, fancy fences o ajrJ^ly-diMed?eld?..

The ploughing is admirable, the ? hands work syateronfically, and the crops in . ' all tk+ir stages of growth look mire vigorous Q aad healthier than.those or other people. Mr. ? Dickson is sn eminently practical man. He has no idea of aesthetics. He does nothing for appearances. He does everything to make o m?ney, J3e is ill-educated, an old bachelor and a dWtea( to pubing one dollar on the top of murna: lear after year since he went to L ?BBBBg and quit dry goods, he experimented With manures of dirfercot kinds for cotton, at * first on a small scale and cautiously, until he dtoeewsd that the combinat! on of genuine t Paiaviao guano, land-plaster, dissolved bones " and salt waa the "perfect manure" for cotton, 5 and once found, be "made a note on't," and has h wed it lavishly, being, I believe, the largest j individual customer of Mr. alerryman, of 8 Beltimore. He has contributed many use- I i ful, instructive and eminently practical arti- I 8 OMS, or the su bataneo of articles, to the South- * ern Cultivator, in which he has given detailed I 0 accounts of his mode of culture. Without any i pretension to scientific a kill, and without using ? tssaa that every fanner cannot understand, he has exnlsineri the whole process of cotton ?altara in its smallest minutie, and bas de? scribed all the implements which are used and which are the most effective. He seems to t har? devoted all his intellect to the study of 1 bow taralee the most cotton on a given quan? tity of land, has punned the study laboriously j and patiently, and bas found that by deep cul? ture before seed tune, and heavy manuring, and by very shallow and frequent culture while the plant ie maturing, he can produce : from two tb three bales per acre upon the or? ? dinary uplands of one of the poorest counties I a in Georgia? If he is to be honored wno eau i make .. two bodes of grass grow where one E Ssw before, how much more is Mr. Dickson . be honored, who >aa made two or three hales of cotton, worth SIM per bale, where one \ htUMlrwlaad fifty pounds of seed cotton, worth ; ?18, used to be made before ?

I .1 have writteu chiefly about Mr. Dickson, be- I ouse people speak of him more than they do ? of others. He bas been more "written up" than Mr. Simpson or Mr. Turner; but, person? ally, I am confident that Mr. Simpson is quite as skilful, quite as successful, and quite as in? telligent a fat mer. He raises a species of cot- : ton superior to Dickson, more prolific, less given to weed, and of earlier maturitv. Some Kale call it the oluster cotton, from the i ches of bolls close to the stalks and on ] the short limbs. The staple is very fine, and i all who have tried the Simpson cotton are J satisfied that it is equal to the best. From ' a?II I can learn, Mr. Simpson makes as many balee per acre aa bis better known iellow ortiaen, and while he says very little, does a . ajtatdoaL _ j "Typ me a ballad, lady e faire, my lad ve a ; aaJlad typ," And ye man he twirled ye black ; moustache that covered ye upper lip.

AYER S SARSAPARILLA, FOR PURIFYING THE BU); D. TBE BEP?TAT10N ibis excellent medicine en Jove, is derived from it? cnre9, many of which are truly marvellous. Invete? rate cases of fcro:uJous disease, where the system seemed saturated with corrup ion, have been pu? rified and cured by it Scrofulous affections and disorders, whlct were ag? gravai ed by tho scrofu? lous contamination until they were painfully afflictiog, have been radically cured in snob great number? in aime it every section of the country, that the public scarcely need to be informed of its virtues or use*. Scrofulous poison is one of the most destructive enemies of our race. Often this unseen snd unie)I tenant of the organism undermines the constitution, and invites the attack ol enfeebling or fatal diseases, without exciting a suspicion of ita presence. Again, it seems to breed Infection turougb the body, and then, on some favorable occasion, rapidly develops Into one or other 01 ita hideous forms, either on the surface or among the vitals. In the latter, I ab errie* may be suddenly deposited in the longs or heart, or tumors formed in ibe liver, or it shows it* presence by ernpbons on the skin, or foul ulcerations on some part of the body. Hence the occasional usu ot a bottle of ibis SARAPARILLA IR advisable, even when no active Symptoms of disease appear. Par? sons afliicie 1 with tbefollowlDg complaints generally find iran ed ?ate relief, and, at length, cure by the use of this SARSAPARILLA: St. Anthony's Fire, Rose or Erysipelas, Tetter, Salt Rheum, Scald Head, Bing Worm, sore lyes. Sore Ears, and other erup? tions or visible forms of Scrofulous direuae. Also, In tbs more concealed forms, ss Dyspepsia, Dropsy, Heart Di'ease, Fits, Epilepsy, Neuralgia and the va? rious ulcerous affections of the muscular and ner? vous systems. Syphilis or Venereal and Mercurial Diseases are cur-d by lt, though s long time is required foi sub during these obstinate maladi s by soy medicine, But long continued use of thia mediane will cure the complaint Leucorrhcea or Whites, Uterine Ul? c?rations and Female diseases, are commonly soon relieved and ultimately cured by its purifying and invigorating effect Minute Directions for each case are lound in our Almanac, supplied gratis.
