Interesting Speech of Commissioner Ca? pron on the Resources, Labor and In? terests of thc Sooth-Cort?n Production -Rivalry of India-Cotton Prestige of Georgia, ?SC. Genera! Capron, Commissioner of Agricul? ture, in the course of his remarks at the Georgia State Fair, on the 17th Instant, spoke of his ac? ceptance of the invitation to be present in the spirit In which lt was tendered-a spirit of mutual concession, sympathy and encouragement. Ile spoke of the richness of the soil of Georgia, its phosphates, marls, mineral wealth, water power, climate, productions, ?c.. In a highly eulogistic rein. In this connection, he advised the total extirpation of ans.'eat prejudices, forgetfulness of what was behind md a "pressing forward to that which is before, aiming toadvauce the united Interest and brighten the consolidated glory of a great and growing nation." Thc commissioner said: The change In your labor system involves "a radical change In the manner ami appliances of eultivation-a necessity which many of you fully realize and thoroughly understand. Free labor, to be most efficient, must be educated labor-ina certain degree skiled labor; it must be supported antTsapplemented by improved mach in cry. so that every nonar expended in the exercise of human muscles may become two by the magical augmen? tation of rural mechanism. It is thus that our lands must be cultivated and crops grown, in part by brawn, in part by brains. This change In labor also involves the necessity for smaller farms, better culture, the use of man? ures, lula ion tu crops, and a larger working capi? tal In proportion to permanent investment. Broad acres of impoverished soil, without abun? dant means for needed fertilizers und fixtures, machinery and farm animals, are not univ non? productive, but absolute sources of cost aud dis? couragement-a mill stone upuu the neck of en? terprise. Without a working capital ut least equal to that Invested In land, recupcratluu must he tedious, and the profits of tannin-, small: with Hs aid utilizing the labor at connu a nd. that which ia more eOlcient and intelligent wm naturally Sow in. -"Aaa natural sequence to this system of indus? try, variety in production will take the place or as unceasing culture of cotton and com. The broad capabilities of soil and climate will have free scope and exercise, and while the product of eotton will be greater than now, there will be corn enough for man and best, an abundance of beef, pork and mutton, the finest of vegetables and rarest of fruits, not alone for home consump tion, but for the supply ol less favored regious. Sugar, In favoring solis, may take the place of cotton as an export crop, sorghum may yield its sweets for local use of dwellers among thc hills; a multitude of new and profitable crops may swell by millions the grand aggregate of the cash receipts of agricultural labor. Garnie introduced in 1864, In the botanic garden at Washington, and propagated for years in thc experimental garden of the Department of Agriculture, promises to Tie with cotton m profit and usefulness if the saanuracturers succeed in improving and cheap? ening its fabrication, and thus create a great aud permanent market for the uew libre, which can ibo produced m unlimited quantities at reasonable prices. - Ton have also an Immeasurable source of wealth In the cultiv?t iou of fruits. Even that must valu? able of all domestic fruits, the apple, can be pro? duced here m the highest perfection, lt ls irue that failures have resulted from introducing varieties of Northern origin, but your pomelo gists have collected native varieties fully equal iu flavor and keeping qualities to the best ol those from any other section. Merely mentioning the pear and the peach-th? latter especially revelling in yo?r bright sm:'. lengthened snmmars-?'iuw me to direct you at? tention to the Hg and grape. The former of these probably requires less skill In propagation and .are In culture, or m drying or other preparation for market than any other fruit of value. The grape, more capricious as to climate and locality, can here enjoy its favored region. On your hillsides the best table and wlnc-grapes of the Northern States will attain perfection, and it fat prophesied that only on the elevated lands and mountain slopes of the Southern- States will thc region be found that ls to yield wines equal to a Johaunlsberger. a Tokay or a .Margeaux: while lu your lowlands you have the famous Scuppernoug that even now ls highly esteemed both here and in foreign countries. Vast developments await you in this direction; and when you reflect that sven on your worn-out land, uuflt for corn or cotton, fruits and wines may be produced in the greatest abundance and perfection, the proprie? ty of giving attention to these crops will be? come apparent. ? HOT will this measure of diversity suffice. Manu? facturers must occupy the sites or water puwers, and the surplus forest products be used in pro? pelling machinery by steam, thus beautifying your State and enriching yonr people, not only by the products and profits of this industry, but by the stimulus lt will afford to agriculture lu (he consumption of Its products? and the enhance? ment of their vaincs. 1 hope to sec the day when, with the help of manufactures In other States of this country, we may be able to manufacture every pound of cotton that we can produce. You nay, in self-defence, be compelled to do lt, as Great Britain is already preparing to colonize India with the skilled laborers of Lancashire as teachers and directors of the teeming millions whose services may be hud for a remuneration scarcely appreciable. Ship abroad muong the mations of the earth, at little cost for freights and commissions, au your cotton ip yarns ami fabrics, bearing the added value of much cunning labor, ready for the markets of the world, rather than depend upon the wants or the caprice ol other nations for the sale of the raw material. The small beginning of five and a half millions of pounds of cotton manufactured in this country in 1791, increasing to fifty millions m 1821, ha's augmented to rour hundred and mtv million Iii 1868, one million bales of four hundred and lit im? pounds each, a consumption greater than that attained in 1860. It will continue to Increase, and, with lea swelling volume, change the whole current of trade, advancing uur uuiiutial weall h and prosperity. We must not lgaore thc efforts of the British eotton commission to attalu independence ol foreign markets through their Indian empire, lt. la true that the fibre known as "Sarats" sells nt towsr rates than our uplands, but it should be remembered that lt is owing more to careless haudilng than to any defect m the staple Itself, and hat strenuous and systematic efforts aro produriig a cleaner and better libre. If the ''Dhers," with their clumsy machinery, have pro duced Irom this colton, with careful manipula? tion of the libre from the beginning, the Quest thread known, measuring one hundred and tilly salles to thc pound, and running to No. -geo in fineness, may not t he teachings and practice of skilled English laborers in India yet incite a sharper competition than wc have heretofore en? countered f Portions of India possess some of the most pro duct i ve soils of the world, peculiarly adapted tu the growth of cotton. Their production is indi? cated hythe following statement: Tue annual consumption for the whole of Europe at present ts about 3,S00,0O0 bales-it has been greater-of which america sends abont l. ooo. ooo bales, India about 1,400,000, Egypt about 250,000, Brazil about 600,000. other countrlei 350,000. Approximately 4,000,000 are reported by the Indian commission. Yet I do not believe ?we are to lose the lirst rank asa cotton-producing nuliou. Our opportunity llesln a belter and more perfect cultivation of the soil, its thorough aeration, draining iu heavy lands, and liberal ...alluring; a more complete adaptation of the implements of Its culture to their peculiar work, the invention of labor-saving expedients and processes, and the reduction to a minimum of the costly use of the human muscles; a regular rotation system of cropping, by which the soil may bc constantly improving rather than continually "wearing out," and Anally, a proper manipulation of the fibre ror markst liv which nnirormlty of length, rreedom from foreign ad? mixture, and perrett cleanliness mav be secured. These are the points in which india cotton is de? ficient, and in which ours must continue to excel. Tosecure a longer, fiuer aud evener staple is entirely practicable, ir. however, it can only be accomplished by observing the great laws of re? production on which all improvement in animal and vegetable species is rounded, the kev to tins progress exists ia a single word-" pedigree.'" . Select a plant producing abundantly a superior fibre; plant its seed ina genial and well-cultivaicd soU; select again aud again from its progeny thi? nnest and the best, discarding all else, and few years will elaine ere marked results will prove : lie great utllltv and exceeding proilt of the effort, in this connection 1 present the?suggestion, of an ex? perimental iarm, established by your state gov? ernment, and conducted by an experienced and Intelligent planter, where new varieties of cotton may be produced and foreign varieties tested. I i would also c. -mm. nd to each individual planter tte necessity or a constant regard to this princi- j pie or selection In thc plauting of every crop hu i may attempt to cultivate. } 1 desire also to call your attention to the Impor-1 tance of a system of co-operation among planters for the destruction of the cotton caterpillar when it first makes its appearance, either as a caterpil? lar or In it? perfect state. While their numbers are few. any expense necessary for their extirpa? tion would be a profitable ontiay; when they ?warm by millions In everv field, their presence ls disheartening and their destmction Impossible. Let these considerations be regarded with In? telligent labor and a personal supervision by the observant planter, and yon may defy the compe? tition of the world, produce a fibre unsurpassed, and realize a profit ample for any want, and sat? isfying every requirement for luxury. In such views of progress I personally feel a deep and un? tiring iuterest. To assist in forwarding them you mav command mr constant endeavors as commis? sioner of agriculture, and co-operation and aid so far as the limited means at command may permit. A LEAP FOR LIVE. A Fated House Barn*-A Fearful Alter? native-Father anti Child Dashed to Pier??. Thc telegraph lias already given a brief ac? count of a shocking acchlcnt which took place in Brooklyn, N.

Thc World of Sunday gives the following account of the fatal fire: The charnel house in which the tragedy or yes? terday was enacted, and which tragedy has been preceded by two others eren yet more terrible, is a largo storehouse made up of Nos. oa and M Fur man street.

While Bower was away on his ml?siin of help thc final act of the tragedy was brought to a con? clusion. The fire which, previous to Bower's de? parture, had cut away the stairs (und, therefore, all hope of escape, "save by thc windows) had grown into greater fury, thc heat became intense, the smoke, great in volume and density, per? meated through thu building, and crept through the crevices of the door or the room in which, crouched i?cncath the window-sill, with upliTtcd faces and clasped hands, Wallace and his family waited for promised succor. None came. The smoke grew denser: the poisonous miasma blinded them; they were dying or suffocation. At last their pent-up agony broke emf.

UARA-KIRA. Th? Ceremony of Sclf-Immolatlo? in Japan. After an interval ofa few minutes of anxious suspense, TUki Zen zn bum, a stalwart man of thirty-two years of age, with a noble air, walked into the hail attired in his dress of ceremony, with tue peculiar hempen cloth wings which are worn on grout occasions. He was accompanied by a kuishaku and three otiieors, who wore the ambaort of war surco?t with gold-tissue facings. With the kaiituiku on his left baud. Takl Zenza buro advanced slowly toward the Japanese wit? nesses, and the two bowed before them, then drawing near tho foreigners they saluted us in the same way, perhaps even with more deference; in each ease the salutation was ceremoniously returned.

This he handed, prostrating himself to the condemned man. ir ho received lt rc vcreut ly-, rasiuglt lu bis head with both hands, and placed it In front of himself. After another profouud obeisance, Takl Zenzaburo, in a voice which betrayed just .-o much emotion and hesitation us might bo expect? ed from a mau who is making a painful confes? sion, bot with uo sign of fear either in ?ns face ur manner, spoke as follows: "l, ami I alone, unwarrantably gave thc order to tiru mi the foreigners at Kobe, ami again as tiny tried to escape. For nus crime 1 disem? bowel myself, and 1 beg you who aro present to do me tho honor of witnessing the act " Bowing once more, the speaker allowed his upper garments to slip down to his girdle, ami re? mained naked to Uie waist.

Buring this sickeningly painful operation he never moved a muscle of his face When he drew out the dil I he leaned forward and stretched ont his neck; an expression or pain for thc Ural time crossed his face, but he uttered no sound.

MT ATE SECRETS. How Hr*. Lincoln Proposed to Pay for a Dinner. Poa Platt Is responsible for the following : lt ls said that at one time B. B. Kron ch's lire was made wretohed by Mrs. Lincoln, who, as mistress of the White Bowse and leader of society, believed that she owned, held and possessed thc miserable master ol' ceremonies. When old Plon Plon, courteously called Prince Napoleon, visited Washington, a grand dinner was given him at the White House. Commissioner French had charge of the entertainment, and lt was a greut success. After it was over, the imperious misi ress of the Executive Mansion congratulated Monsieur French on Its results, but she added: "Now, you've got to pay for it." "Me, madam," exclaimed the astounded Com? missioner; "My God, it cost ail of seven hundred dollars." "I don't care what it cost. You've got to pay for it. I say." "Why, it would ruin me." "I don't mcau that, you old goose. It was a public dinner, given for the credit of the govern? ment, and the government's got to pay, and it's your business to sec to it that's all." "But there ls no appropriation," plead the un? happy Commissioner. "What do 1 care for that. Go to old Seward: he gare a dinner, too, and got thc money out of the government, 1 bet. Go and tell him lo put both dinners in." Away went thc disconsolate Commissioner to the old diplomatic Joe ol'the Slate Department, and related his grievance. Thc venerable Seward at 0rat'stared in astonishment, ami then laughed until he shook all over, and sahl: "it wont wash. Frenchy, co and tell Mrs. Lin? coln that the State Department is not a restau? rant, and I have bani work to pay for my own dinners."' The Commissioner returned and tried to argue with the irate lady. But it was to no purpose. He was forced to run over all the appropriations. All were expended bul that made for the manur? ing of public grounds. "Take that," cried the lady. lt grieved the soul of the Commissioner, for, in addition toother high offices, he was president of the National Agricultural Association, and to have the mos,ey appropriated to fertilize the bar? ren grounds ol the capital-to cive a top-drcss ingtothe squares ami triangles-to have this misapplied to Prince Plon-1'lon'a gonrmandiziug was tearful. .Gui he had no alternative, and thu money was taken.
