But a few weeks ago a Northern paper published a long interview by 'its reporters with Gen. Longslreot. of 'tho Confederate Army, and the Sun last week publishes a letter from 'Gen. Beautegard. Every one ol those interview and letters, and there are many of them, has been ;given to tho world by Northern jour =imls, indeed these journals seem to have a mania for this kind of Hiera turc, and avail thetnselves of every occasion to interview our Southern generals and leaders and to publish -whatever-concerns the conduct of the war Or tho 'management of political ?'?.?i . 1 . "campaigns. We can imagine no ?good end these publications can sub .serve, unless it be to engender discon tent on the part of our people and n ?pirlt of fault-finding with our leaders *>fhich* indeed soctno to be the only object in view, whether the paper be ?Republican, Conservative, or Demo cratic in sentiment. As Republicans 'they would seek to sever every bond that binds the Southern masses to Melr old and present leaders, and as 'Conservative or Democratic, by de ^J^?yiiiS confidence on the part of the people An their ofjlcere, they would (assume tbat leadersjiip themselves mid thus overcome Southern inllucnce in our !^atrtorml Legislature. It has been a matter?, of surprise that such Wn as our generals and leaders evi tlently are, should be so wanting in prudence as* to submit themselves to tltc cunning scrutiny of newspaper reporters. Sonic of them appear to court this questionable notoriety and -willingly place themselves in a posi tion to be pumped, while others do ;t will reluctance, without dreaming of Sn ' impi'opriet}'. If there was any 'jiistiliablc cause it might be different; hul the matter contained in these publications is merely conjectural and adds nothing to history or in any way h'pnpfits the South and therefore inju rious and ?uexci(sal]le. An Important Discovery, 'l'lic hows is coulirmed that Prof. Nordenskjold has successfully discov ered and made the northeast passage or voyage from the waters of the At lantic, through the Arc'ic, north of Europe1 and Asia, to the Pacific Ocean. This is doubtless the grcat jity f^nt of navigation perlottped since the discovery of America, but whether it will prove of any manner of nee to the world remains to be scefi. ' The entire sea in that latitude is locked wi'lViee the year round and a free, uninterrupted passage even for a limited time is'out of tlTo ques tion. Wo may expect, however,'val uable information upon many sub jects bolh *in" iho animal ar,d vegcta b!o kingdoms upon,'which the knowl edge of man hitherto was tadly defi cient. Science may also gai.t many valuable contributions upon ?ie geog raphy ofthat region, which has been litit i?iper^ectly' known for ages bc ca'uso et (fhe extreme severity ol the climate. Whilst Prof. N^onlenskjohl deserves and will receive great glory at the hands of his fellow men for Ulis wonderful work, yet the grander feat remains yet to be achieved, the discovery of the northeast passage frorn j,tyb Atlautie, north of America, lo the waters of the Pacific Ocean. To accomplish t-his Sir .lohn Frank lin risked his life and perished ; the fending nations of tho earth contrib utcd millions of money and fitted out expedition after expedition, only to Buffer loss and failure after failure ; and even private enterprises have been made up with the satpc view liko that in the course of preparation by the New York Herald, What may be the final result of this enormous expenditure' ?f money and loss of life wc know not, but hope, it will bo of sufficient .importance to repay t'uu ~.-;rl.l It ?????/II? >?? ort;,l Hint previous explorations paid, notwith standing the valuable additions to learning made by Drs.

It_ 1 I*,........ ~ 4 ~ ?_^ I l> nuo Ulli gUUU ivnuiiu mj iH/ivui- j pauy a party of gentlemen last Frl doy on a visit to tho farm of Dr. W. V. Baiton, and never were we better! delighted with atrip, more profitably employed or time more pleasantly spent. Had it been in the good old daj'8 of the past wo might have been in some manner prepared for such generous hospitality embracing an open-hearted greeting and welcome, the generous refreshments of the cel lar and the feastings of the Ludet; but what was our surprise to bear on alighting the almost forgotten invita tion of "all hands 'o the board," to sec a half dozen familiar individuals of no questionable identity standing upright with u dozen glasses tasteful ly arranged and circling around. Dr. Barton is the fortunate owner of a spendjd vineyard and bis wine is pure, sparkling and Hows generously. A few llattcring rcuiaiks to our host and compliments to the hostess, (but recently installed,) brought the party to the delightful exercises usual to mutual admiration societies. Here our good bachelor friends, Maj. J. M. D., and Captains J. L. M. and E. J. F., were masters of ceremonies, A buggy and horsos being an nouccd (it was a hot day) and being a fat man we began to reconnoitre for the bost position with a view to com fort. By mutual consent we made the middle man of three in a small buggy and started for an inspection of one of the best crops it has been our privilege to see during this season. When wo consider tho blighting influ ence of tire late drought on the crops of bo many sections of our county and tin depressed spirits of the farm ers, it is a sourco of gratification to (int\ a community where success 'seems to reward the clforts of toil. Dr. B. ranks among the advanced planters of our day, and the mode of preparation, manuring and cultiva tion which gives succcsh to bim as a I farmer may bc\of interest to others concerned in a like pursuit. Kpcog nizing the fact that deep preparation increases the spongincss of the soil which enables the rootlets to draw organic food from the surrounding atmosphere, and, during seasons of drought, to pierce deep and obtain moisture from below which increases the vitality of the plant by making the roots more fibrous and numerous and providipg the plant with the power of retaining its vigor and I growth for a much longer tiipc, he uses the Watt plow and suhsuilcr in order tjiat these qualities of soil might be attained in their highest perfection. Recognizing also another fact that frequent pulverizing the sur face soil keeps it in the best possible condition and that cutting the numer ous lateral root s is an irreparabler in jury to the plant itself, hp adopts and practices a shallow cultivation as the most practical mode for successful farming. This mode keeps the enr j face fresh, and, during hot weather, in the proper condition to catch the deposits of dew and readily admits their fertilizing properties to the roots through the pores of tho loose soil bolpw, A long scries of expensive and judi cious experiments has furnished him with a pretty accurate knowledge of thp elements of fertility in soil and onablns him to judge whether thoBp elements exist in sufficient quantities and in the chemical and physical con dition to bo appropriated by the plant. These experiments have set tled Dr. B. on Vl'o following formulas for cotton and porn in case his land needs artificial aid: For cotton, he uses a compost of two hundred pounds of ueid phpsphatc, seventy pounds of Kuinitp or German salt, and twplvc bushels of cotton seed. Thjs is prepared six weeks before planting, In case of corn he plants in rows six feet apart and three feet on the bed, and mnnnros in the fur row with fourteen bushels of cotton seed and one hundred pounds, of acid phosphate scattered on them. This mode of preparation, manur ing and cultivation, during the pres ent unfavorable season, will yield Dr. 11. a crop of one four hundred pound bale of cotton per aore and twenty to twenty-five bushels of corn. A no ticeable feature in both crops is that wherever the pea was used the last year the plants arc healthier and inore vigorous and the yield will be proportionately increased. This fact, taken in connection with ils value as a plant food for oats and wheat, goes | far to provo that tho pea is tho best! und cheapest restorer of our worn-out latau. Anottior fact scorns' ? ?b?ut to be settled by an experiment of Dr. B. this year: Cotton manured with the same quantity of acid phosphate and ground phosphato rock gives no differ ence) in the yield. The latter is $2 cheaper per ton. Sulphuric acid it used with tho former and not will, the latter which accounts for tho dif ference in cost. Tho Democrat would bo glad to hear from Dr. B. on this point when the yield is deter mined at gathering time. A portion of the party visited the crops of Mr. Willie Izlar and James Stokes, nnd, when wp met on tho ro turn homo, gave a most flattering ac count of tho prospects of both gentle men, but moro especially of a three ucre field of Mr. Stokes which will yield more than two thousand pounds of seed cotton per acre. Not being present wo give no satisfacto y theo ry to account for this difference in tho yield of land similarly treated un less it be due-to the probability that Mr. S. carried tho party to* his house und presented each with a magnify ing glass before looking at the cotton, After refreshment and feasting such as farmers only can furnish svo re turned to Orangcburg and our sanc tum to writo up these notes. The Revival. According to announcement in the Democrat, preaching began in the Methodist Church at this place on last Wednesday evening at 8 o'clock and has continued without interrup tion to the present date. From the beginning, these services have been well attended and an interest mani fested on the part of the people which has developed into a deep, all pervading religious influence affect ing the entire congregation. This is i\:o. more gratifying because liko eve ry other community wo have not "continued steadfastly in the Apos tles' doctrine liiul fellowship, and in breaking of bread af.d in prayers." Jesus, the resurrection and Iho for giveness of sius have been kept ai 3 guilty distance from us and have hid from our eyes the great facts of our holy religion, Church members have been living too much within iho bor ders of the world, pandering to the arts and sciences, and to human fash ions, inllucncpd by a spirit, of gain that is criminal in the sight of God, and, at limes apparently, willing to barter their own salvation for a faith that is not of Christ but of the world. The great, protecting need of tho church, therefore, is to lake n firmer hold upon Christ, which can only bo done by earnest, fervent prayer mil initiating in a glorious revival of re ligion among the membership, and extending its gracious influences throughout the entire community. Wc hope that this may be the final re sult of the revival now in progress in our midst, and that Rev. M. Brown and Rev, A. O. Darby, who arc la boring so earnestly for it, may wit ness the fruit of their zeal in the con version of many souls and a general revival of religion not only irr their own church but in all tho churches of of our towp. Unr people need to know more of God and of the love of Jesus that wc may "be filled with the knowledge of Ilia will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding." Where Did They Come From ? Whilst the frozen region of the earth has been a source of so much anxiety to tho world, tue wilds of Central Africa have attracted suffi cient attention to enlist the services nnd to furnish to the roll of fame ouch men as Thomas, Livingstone and Stanley. The interest in this wonderful land seems not to wanp,foi scarcely has one explorer furnished hiq store of wonders concerning it, bofora unplhcr makes astonishment more astounding. One of these, a Major Serpa Pinto, a Portuguese, gives a vivid and quite a graphic de scription of a white race of men in habiting Central Africa, whiter than the Caucasian, wtyh their heads cover ed with short wool instead of hair, and their eyes resembling the Chin ese. They are a robust set, of extra ordinary skill in the use of the arrow and subsist on roots and the flesh of animals. The origin of this peculiar people will bo a problem for future solution by tho scientist of the world, and will perhaps constitute a distinct race of men bearing thesnmo relation to the Caucasian as tho Ma lay bears to the negro. Wbat may be the next wonder brought out from IhiS wild land remains for future ex ploration to determine; in tho mean time, in order that there may bo a fit ness of things, South Carolina is per fectly willing to swap some coal black negroes for Pinto? while Afri cans, savage though they he. Rust in Cotton. Editor Orangeburg Democrat : Tlin subject of rust in cotton will only bo interesting to those in the county living below the clay belt. We all know clay lands do not rust cotton, but continue to mature fruit until frost. Why they do this will be apparent as wo proceed. What ib rust in cotton? Some will tell you it is a want of vegetable matter in the soil; others that it is caused by an excess of moisturo; others again that cool nights produce it, and I havo heard some old farmers say, it always starts lrom poke weed grow ing near the cotton. Now all theso different opinions provo conclusively that this scourge of our cotton fields has been having its own way, not be cause there is no remedy for it, but: because the disease, if I am allowed I tho term in this connection, is so lit tle understood. It oannot be for want of vegetable matter in the soil, for wo frequently scjs cotton rusting in soils abundantljy supplied with vege table matter. admit it does cor rect it to a limited extent. 1 have seen cotton almost entirely destroyed by riist in bottoms, where there was nn abunancc oj vegetable humus washed in from surrounding hills. Neither can moisture be the prevail ing cause, or the clay lands would also suffer by rust in wet seasons; and the same reason may be assign ed why cool nights do not cause it. The poke weed does not grow every where, and particularly about these rusty cotton patches, therefore the blame cannot bo laid at its door. Then if nono of these opinions ad vanced arc the cause of rust, what is it. that causes cotton to rust on near ly all the hinds below the cotton or clay belt? My^answcr is the want of sufficient potash in the coil. And now for tho proof. Why docs rust start and spread from a poke weed growing near cotton? Not solely be cause it takes the disease from the poke, but because the poke has ex hausted all the available potash in the soil near it', and the cotton near, being the first to feel the want of pot ash, show symptoms of rust. The analysis of poke and Irish potato vines show that they contain more potash than R!ff other vegetable pro duct. Wc are also taught that clay soils abound in potash, llcuCO the ab sence of rust in cotton on them, n;)d in consequence their superior adapta bility to cotton/ 'in"18/3 1 applied fifty bushels unlcaohcd ashes to an acre of land that had been rusting cotton badly. The cotton remained green until frost, and niaturecl fruit to the top, when the adjoining cotton failed to mature any top crop, and some of it dying with rust the first of September. That scrip of land lias not rusted cotton since, The potash in the ashes was what the soil needed to keep the cotton from rusting. The following year one of my hands put a sack of lvaiuit or Gcnnau potash salt on one acre through the middle of a seven acre patch of cotton. The land had bceu in cultivation four years, light sandy oak land and rust ed cotton badly. In the fall it was a pleasure to show this aero strip to my friends, (I think you, Mr. Editor, saw it,) while the cotton on both sides of it was denuded of leaves and all the top bolls dead before half grown. This acre remained green until frost and matured its fruit to the top. This last experiment itself was evidence conclusive to my mind that potash was the remedy for rust in cotton. I have since noticed the same results in similar experiments. I believe on lands thoroughly drain ed, (and no other kind should b( planted in cotton,) and not entirely destitute of vegetable matter ; potash in every instance will correct the tendency to rust in cotton. By rest and rotation the tendency to rust can he corrected ifi a great measure, but when lands are planted every year, and clay is not near the surface, potash must be supplied either in un limited amounts of trash and litter from tho woods, stable manure, ashes, or some of the commercial preparations of potash.

I Editor Orangeburg Democrat: Thinking that it may be of some interest to the farmers of Orangeburg County, and especially those who cultivate swamp lands, to relate the experiment by which Mr. P.J. Beck er, a young farmer of Lexington County, discovered the manner by which the cut worm increases so rap idly, lie took a dozen worms, con fined tlicin in a box, fed them regu larly and raised them to full growth. Soon after this he noticed that they began to die one by one until the number was reduced to six. lie threw out all the deed one ; but, sup posing that he was not \loing justice to the experiment* hp allowed tho others as they died to remain in the box, when in a few days he discover ed that the dead ones had each changed its form into a vast number of young ones, which he thinks ac counts for their uncqualcd increase. Mr. Itecker says any one who disbe lieves this experiment will, by try ing the same plan, find it true. lie thinks by breaking up the land in the winter we may destroy most of the young deposited therein for the destruction of tho next crop. I hope that this will be of some assistance in exploding tho old notion that cut wortu3 developed into, or turned out to be horse Hies, and that tho farmers may avail themselves of the method prescribed for destroying these little, but most injurious insects.
