In thc u ?ht ehe told a s'ory, In the n gbt and all nteht through, .While tho moon was in her ?lory, and tho branches dropt with new. ?Twas my life ehe told, aad round it Roso the years BB from a deep ; In the world's great heart she lound it, Cradled Uko a child asleep. In the night I saw her weaving By tho misty moonbeam col l, All tbe weft her ?mittle cleaving With a sacred thread of gold. Ahl she wept me tears of sorrow. Lulling tears so mystic sweet; Then she wove my laet to-morrow, *-.. And her web lay at my feet. Of my lifo she made the Btory ; I must seep-so econ 'twas told ! But your name did lend it giory, And your love its th t ead ot gold. [From "Mopia the Fairy. PLANTING IN GEORGIA. Momo Aceonnt of the Cotton Oracle a of georgia-How Jnr. David Mic teso? and - , WM Neighbors) Manage. A Georgia correspondent of the New York Simes, writing from Sparta, Hancock County, Ws : : , . Of all the counties outside of what is called, wg> exoeUence, the cotton district of Georgia, this Hancock County is the most productive. ?1?re reside and plant Mr. David Diokson, Mr. .fjrmpeon and Mr. Turner with a humber of Ut?thfnl imitators and disciples, and nowhere ?sm thero be found more thoroughly skilled 'professors of practical farming thao the geh 'flemen I have named, lt ie incalculable tho good they have done in their neighborhood, and, indeed, in every part of Georgia their ex? ample and precepts have proved b?n?ficiai. T-hoy have demonstrated the value of scien? tific agriculture, of By stem and of intelligent industry, and have exposed the wasteful folly Of the old system of scratching tho surface, extracting crop altor crop until the land be? semos perfectly exhausted, and then repeating the process, never dreaming of u^ing manure, and believing that breaking the land more than fe couple of inches "kills" it. The individual, in the fable, who killed the goose that laid tho ?olden egg, was provident compared with tho Armers or tho bid school, 'thousands and thousands of acres in every county, now grown np in stunted pines, and presenting a barren Ted surtace, were once good laid. They are 'now the slaughtered geese that laid golden Messrs. Dickson, Simpson and Turner have proved that lending money to their land is the best and most lucrative investment, and that improving the land they have got pays better 'Hum buying "new ground" when the old is ex? hausted to barrenness. At first they were regarded as crazy men. Ploughing the soil with TWO and four horses, and with large turn ploughs, and using guano and couu?ercUl fer? tilisers, wore considered "ell ioolishnesb." It wea thought they *' must break at that busi? ness," and that applying from ten to tweuty ?oliara' worth per acre of that "stuff that smells so bad" was, in itself, sufficient proof bf lunacy. After some time, however, it ap? peared that they gathered and sent to market ? much larger number of bales of cotton than their old-fashioned neighbors ; that their corn cribs were fuller; that they had more wheat in their bins; that their horses, mules, cattle, 'wagons, harness and implements were in bet Kr condition and lasted longer than those of e primitive school ; and that they never owed auybody a cent, and always had plenty of money. They were the first to use the com? mercial manures liberally, and the first to find that it paid better than any other investment of capital to use them at a cost of even $20 per sere. The result is now that no county in Middle Georgia produces as much per acre of arable land as Hancock County, although the Boil gen? erally ia extremals oK?^*^>^',4?'^*y m Pr0i pbfuon to ita sise uses anything hke the same quantity of the guanos, phosphates and land plaster. Mr. David Dickson who, I believe, commenc? ed Me as a storekeeper (dry goods, ?to.) in this Village, is now universally admitted to be the the beat, most successful and moat intelligent . planter in Georgia. He is not by any means the largest planter, howevei. Mr. Lookett, Mr, Lee Jordan, Captain John A. Cobb, and others in Southwestern Georgia, plant,double And i treble the quantity of land, own double and treble the number of mules, horses, ?co., and employ very many more laborers; but at iftle end of the year take the number of bales ~per -acre of all the plantations, and'Mr. Dick ion ; inoontestibly carries off the palm. He ' ratees from a bale to a bal? and a half on all his land, and on parts of it produces as much AO.:thies bales, or 1600 pounds of lint cot? ton. <: To look at his plantation , yon are not struck by any particular neatness, fancy fences or evenly-divided fields. On the oootrary, you gre disappointed at the rough, -untidy appear? ance ot the face of the farm. But the stock look! well. The ploughing is admirable, the hands work systematically, and the drops in gil their stages of growth look m ore vigorous gad healthier than those of other people. Mr. Diokson is an eminently practical man. He has no idea of aesthetics. He does nothing for Appearances. He does everything to make money. He is ill-educaied, an old bachelor and devoted to putting one dollar on the top of another. Tear after year since he went to farming and quit dry goods, he experimented with manures of different kinds for cotton, at ?itt on a small seale gad cautiously, until he discovered tbat the combination of genuine Peruvian guano, land-plaster, dissolved bones gad aalt was the "perfect manure" for cotton, gad once found, he "made a note on't," and has ?sed it lavishly, being, I believe, the largest Individual customer of Mr. uerryman, of Baltimore. He has contributed many use-' fol, instructive and eminently practical arti? cle?, or the substance of articles, to the Bou th? orn Cultivator, in which he has given detailed gesonnte of his mode of culture. Witbont any pretension to scientific skill, and without using g term that every farmer cannot understand, ko has explained the whole process of cotton culture in its smallest minutia), and bas do? gwood all the implements which are used and which are the moot effective. He seems to hare devoted all his intelleot to the atndy of how to raise the most cotton on a given quan? tity of land, has pursued the study laboriously aaa patiently, and has found that by deep cul tare before seed time, and heavy manuring, and by very shallow and frequent culture While the plant is motoring, he can produce from two to three baies per aero upon the or? dinary uplands of one of the poorest counties! In Georgia, if he is to be honored who can make two blades of grass grow where one grew before, how much more ie Mr. Dickson tobo honored, who aa made two or three bales of cotton, worth 1150 per bal?, where one hundred and fifty poonda of seed cotton, worth need to he made before? Thia yew, stimulated by the high prices, gad encouraged hythe large sams he ze oeivetS last year. Hr. Dickson has planted ??ry largely, with great care and with great qmontitiea ol guano, dissolved bones, piaster gad salt, He sold AO of his cotton seed that he ww? spare, at from V? to tb per bushel, in a few weeks after it was known that he would sell thom, thus adding from $60 to $160 per bois to the value of bi? cotton, and daily re? ceives hatraUs of letters asking all sorts of questions as to "how ho does it." I have written chiefly about Mr. Diokson, be soase people ?peak of him more than they do SE TS^fk H? has boon more "written up" than Mr. Simpson or Mr. Turner; bat, person. ?5?\Ji?? oopadeot that Mr. Simpson is quite ifni .
