TO UNTIMEIiY WINTER.
BY THE LATE MARY SHELDOK, OE WISCOXSIX^^
Begone, old "Winter I thou white-headed thi|0?^
Blustering topnenter of the lovely SprLpPr^
A dreaming poet said, that on th^P
Of rosy Spring thou once a nap;
And now it seems, forsMf'^hat thou dost take
The fiction in goo^' ?5*! and dost make
Thy daily coun^^Rr; and thou wouldst woo
- ' Bright Sa?f<Kto kiss thoso lips so cold and blue!
OldjPrtuer, thou art vain?dost thou not see
l Jftfe maiden flies whene'er approached by thee ?
(rThy look, the whistling voice, wings her l:ght feet,
5 With terror, to some sunny far retreat,
I Where thy cold breath can never chill again
The birds and flowers rejoicing in lier train.

f Vanish away at thy cold presence. While
Thou walkcst through .the park and down the street,
The little children who went out to meet
The Spring with merriment, run back andsny,
"With tears and sobs, that Spring has flown away,
And dreadful Winter lias returned once more
And paces up and. down before the door,
Whene'er you go atiel^, across our hills,
Ana tnrougn toe meaas aua .vaueys, e en me ruis,
That laughed like infants 'neath the Spring's soft eye,
Grow cold and dull?and dark and still they lie.
? Go, Winter, go! for ye can only fright
, -"Warm Spring before ye, dropping, in her flight,
The tender "blossoms, nourished by her breath,
To meet, beneath thy feot, a cruel death.
Go, WhitebeardUo thy lonely home on high,
Where snow-capp'd mountains pierce the northern skyHowl
in thy solitude, but ne'er again
Trespass upon our gentle Spring's domain.

From the Southern Organ.
On Plantation JtEanagement.
The following communication, on the importance
of proper management in the conducting
of a cotton plantation, and especially* on the
art of economizing time?so as to do every spe_
cies of.work in its proper season?is furnished
us by a planter of extensive experience in Hinds
county, Miss.:
Dear Sir?The mass, of our race judge of
the pretensions of an ind -.idual in any practical
department by the amount of wealth he accumulates:
thus, an overseer who seeks-ein1
ployment, and can produce evidence that he is
a ten bales planter, can usually meet with a
ready call. This is, when no better opportunity
exists for judging, perhaps the best criterion;
and usually it is all that is needed, because
planters are too often satisfied with it. A man
may make a large crop and yet not be a good
manager, as some consider good management.
WWTI A n 1 ' I I i i
way { Because a gooa manager snouia nave
much more to do than making crops. He may
have to clear land, to build, to. ditch, and all
the et ceteras in plantation economy. A manager
is not born; it is like public speaking;
he may have .gifts which, if cultivated, will
make one. "Such qualities are only the result
of much reading, of careful and crose study, and
no little experience." One man'will start his
* team in the spring and "go ahead," wet or dry,
because he has had no foresight; another looks
ahead, and seemingly without.thought. He has
wet weather work and dry weather work.?
7 When time to plant, he has his seed corn all
prepared; no loss of time then to select and
prepare: When the lime comes to plow; he
has not then to grind axes, or make axe handles
; all has been done and ready in bad weather.
When hoes gre to be moving, handles
are made, hoes ground and all handled ready
for use. His repairs, whether to houses, fences,
gears, or what not, arc all done in a proper
time; np confusion, no los3 of time, whereas,
the first subject is all in a flurry ; and all.the
time annoyed until his crop is ready for regular
working. The one will make a fair crop,
without any exertion, whilst the other is press
Rig all day and as much of the night as can be
possible. The one man will make only perhaps
eight bales of co&on, but will have his
bands, iiis team and tools in perfect keeping at
the end of the year, with healthy, stout children.
The other may make ten bales, with
negroes well worn, team reduced, tools broken
or injured, and children weakly and puny?
not able to stand an ordinary spell of sickness.
Fortunes, like knowledge, are not gained in
^ a day, nor are they made by the largest crops.
Any man, upon such land as lies in many portions
of your State may make ten to twelve
v or even fifteen'bales of cotton. Where land,
arider ordinary attention, will produce two
bales per acre and rows eight feet distant, who
v coofd not make his twelve bales? Scraping
one acre is only 1820 yards; eight acres will
be onlj miles; whereas, where land is thin,
there are as many miles or more on four acres,
' f pows four feet distant or less?and more diffi!
eul?, as tfiere are more stalks to clean around.
It i& time planters were looking to something
else than the making of large crops'; they are
made at a heavy cost, not only of teams, &c.,
but also oflaric^ and it must be done by those
\x;h/% oHnnfa/] tl>o nomiointiQ nf
...v."-- .
making all subservient to a big crop of cotton.
Let an sample be set of good management,
and the Southwest will not he behind any portion
of the earth. Those who have made fortunes
by*making ten to eighteen bales, can."
well afford to bring their felloes back, there
be 8ny of said fortune^rfctid~ if smaller crops
wilfpay better.
mineral Resources of the South.
The Knoxville Register has an interesting
article on some late discoveries, which show
that*there is one continuous vein of rich copper
ore between the Polk county mine in East
' Tennessee and the mine recently discovered in
Carroll counfy, Virginia. These .Virginia and
Tennessee veins have tho same direction, Northeast
and Southwest, the same dip, the same
surface indications, and are in the same chain
of monntainai In the Tennessee vein the miners
have recently reached the yellow Sulpharet
of copper, which, ie regarded as an infallible
indication of the inexhaustible extent of the
inince, and also their incomparable richness.
A new impetus has consequently been given to
mining ojwranuu#, #?u, iwu weens since mere
were sales of three quarter sections of land at
about $1,250,000. About five thousand tons
of rich copper ore are taken from- the mines
monthly, netting in all, at least half a million
of dollars. This amouxt will doubtless be
much Increased, when the shafts that are being
rank shall penetrate the rich sulphuret.
Bnt these copper developments, the Register
says, are not the tenth part of the indications
of the very great valae whioh is at some early

Tfcnnesiea#f*?^i,lll'nvesl Virginia, and which
is new so,,|*ces of profit for the great
.wgjfjjrof the Virginia ar^d Tennessee Railroad,
and for the diffusion of increasing wealth along
its whole line. In addition to the zinc, l-.'ad,
marble, gypsum, &c., ofthat fine section'of .
country, there are rich mountains of iron and
coal, to be opened up and brought into the great
laboratory of, humftn enterprise. With the
abundance of coi^and iron, and. the great improvement
in "its manufacture, it is estimated
* I'" * 1"? rvia^o nt n envt of little..

more than five dollars per ton?so that, on the
completion of the railroad in construction, the
actual cost of the iron will be in New York
less than $20 per ton,.in Charleston less than
$15, and in Cincinnati less thun <$10?and yet
thousands of acres of land may now be purchased
for less than fifty cents per acre. In
time, capital will, find Out these opportunities
for investment in Virgiitia and Tennessee?and
mighty will be the results of a development of
their teeming resources. Come,what may, the
destiny of the South must be onward, and,
however lowering the horizon with the black
storm of fanaticism and aggression, the South
is blessed with natural resources, fully abundant
to give her prosperity and strength and
complete security against the machinations of
hei;deadliest enemies. The spirit of enterprise
and enercv is wakina' up the South, and we al
OV V #
ready see a brighter day in iter history. Let
her bo true to herself and to her admirable
natural position, and a magnificent destiny will
be accomplished for her.

Retrospective and Prospective.
Having for years occupied a portion of winter's
short days and long evenings in reviewing
the past, and Bevising plans of operation for
the future, I am . every season adding a few
items to that knowledge which I consider so
well proved and confirmed by experience as to
be safe, reliable and useful as a guide in prac
tieal operations. Thinking that some of the
contributions which the past season has made
to this stock of reliable and useful knowledge
might be of service to some of my breth/cn of
tfle agricultural community, 1 cheerfully devote
an hour to the statement of a few of them. i
Among*the items of knowledge which the
gast season has either taught for the first time,
or confirmed by additional evidence, we would
name this?that ammonia can very certainly
be prevented from .escaping from heaps of
horse or other manure by sprinkling thereon
some gypsum and a solution of sulphuric acid.
Having mo conveuient way of protecting the
manure from the horse stable, and confident
that all the ammonia which our nostrils inform
ed us was making its escape from the manure
heap near the stable, was so much dead loss to
us, we put a small keg of plaster iuto the stable
so as to be convenient whenever the smell
or any other circumstances should remind us
of our duty to our fertilizing treasures. Two
or three times a week, or wheu the escaping
ammonia assaulted our nostrils, we sprinkled a
handful or two of plaster upon the manure
heap, and generally in tl^e course of the same
day we scattered over it abo^ a fourth part of
a teacupful of sulphuric acid or vitriol." After
these applications we could detect no such
smell as before, and concluded, therefore, that
the ammonia had in some way been fixed so
that it could no longer make its escape. Agricultural
chemists would call this, 1 suppose,
changing the carbonate of ammonia into the
sulphate. Whatever it may be called in chemical
phraseology, we are satisfied that is an effectual
mode* of preventing evaporation and
loss, which affect equally the farmer's crops
and pockets. If some of your readers would
try the experiment of apnking plaster and wa
ter slightly acidulated with oil of vitriol, we
should probably heiq- from them, some year or
t>vo hence, such favorable reports of the prac
tice as would persuade all, save the laziest, to
adopt it
Of ohe thing more the experience of the past
season has firmly convinced us. We are all
satisfied 'that the peaty matter thrown out of
our ditches, carried on and spread over a garden
of a sandy soil, has greatly increased its
productiveness. For some years it had seemed
as if all the soap suds and other manures put
upon the garden produced no fertilizing effect.
The sandy soil, we supposed", had no power of
retaining the fertilizing qualities of the manures
applied, but suffered them to escape by leaching
or evaporation or both. The addition of
peaty matter from our ditches has changed the
appearance of things very materially. In the
additional rankness of growth and richness of
verdure or.color, we can now see that our fertilizers
are not wasted as before. To satisfy
ourselves and a skeptical neighbor we put some
of the garden soil as it used to be, and some
u'llli f liu nrlmivliipo ?!/> n Uah Wa n/Mit?A/"l

over each a solution of lien manure, and afterwards
a solution of saleratus. In what escaped
from the hole in the bottom of the pot in the
first, we could detect the characteristics of the
solution used ; whereas what escaped or leaked
from the other was almost entirely destitute of
taste; color or smell.? Country 'Gent.

"Mr. Smith, says Mrs. Dr. Jones, "don t

Mr. Smith, "that there is something of a quack
about him." Exit Smith?just ahead of a broom

A gentleman in the street the other night,
who had evidently "taken in too much of the

resting himself against a lamppost, when an
acquaintance came along, and observed that
the afflicted individual had on a new overcoat.
". Well," Bob,' 6aid he, "guess you have been
indulging in a new overcoat."
" Coat I" replied Bob, giving his hat a knock
lAck, and endeavoring to gesticulate, " this
ain't a coat."
" Ins*! a coat, eh! Well, Bob, what is it ?
" This ere ain't a coat? it's a spirit wrapper.''

A Good Shot.?The best repnrtee wo have
lately seen comes from Prentice, the wag of
the Lotiisville Journal. The Editor of the"
Alabama Flag called it out by tbe following
squib: "Why is the Louisville Journal's career
through life like a celebrated tune? Because
it is.,the rogues march." ' .
Prentice, who is a "dead shot," loaded his
piece, and taking aim, let the Flag man have i
it right in the teeth after the following manner
to wit: "Why will the editor of the Flag, at 1
the $nd of bis career through life be like a tone
of Paganini's?' Because he will be executed !
on a single string."

A Hard/Hit.?Some years ago, Roger M.
Sherman and Perry - Smith, of Connecticut,
were opposed to each other as advocates in an
important case before a court-of justice.?
Smith openefl the case \vi;h a violent and foolish
trade against Mr. Sherman's political character.
Sherman arose in a composed manner and
remarked: -
"I shall notdisciiiB politics before this court
but 1 am perfectly wiliing to argue questions
of law, to chop logic, or even to split hairs with
jhim."
"Split that then," said Smith, at the same
time pulling 'out a short, rough looking Tiair
from his head, and handing it over to Sherman.
' "May
it please the honorable court," retorted
Sherman,, "I didn't say bristles!"
An old bachelor geologist was boasting that
every rock was as familiar to him as th^ alphabet.
A lady, who was present, declared
that she knew.ofa rock of which he was wholly

replied the lady. Calebs evaporated.
