Mr.. ED1ToR: If it is true that "the children
of this world are wiser in their generation than
the children of light" it is no less true, "that
the God of this world has blinded their eyes. "
When! Mr.. Editor-when let it be asked with
all the emphasis Of deep conviction and earnest
ness of imminent ruin when will the cotton
planter ofthe South open their eyes to the fact,
that a crop of two million bales will bring them
more money than one of two and half or three mil
lion2 We toll and struggle through the whole
calendar, from Christmas to Christmas again,
devoting to the cotton crop our lands and our
best energies, and thereby exbausting both a;
and all to swell the number of cotton bales to
an amount that must, in the very nature of
things depress the price to a figure far below
remuneration, and keep it there. Then look at
the DISASTROUS consequences which are invitable
by such a course. Cattle upon the lift, or down

realized from the little crop has all gone TO Che
rokee and Tennessee for corn. The bacon IS

ey borrowed at high rate of interest; in either
case involving the hapless purchaser in debt
An argument of five minutes will convince any
man that all these calamitics may De- avoided
and their opposite blessings secured by plant
ing smaller crop of cotton and larger crop
of grain. Indeed, almost every man is already
conrinced of that fact. Why as ii, hen, that all
"confeSs the wrong and still! the wrong pursue =
Each individual is aware that his diminished
cotton crop will have no effect upon the mar
ket, and in order to get his share of the money,
he must plant his full proportion of the cotton.
Now, Mr. Editor, for one, am resolved to pur-
sue different course, from the full conviction
that it is to my individual interest to make a
provision crop; and thus, if should not sue
ceed so far as to have grain and pork to sell, l
at least will endeavor to avoid the humiliating
necessity of being compelled to pay away all,
or nearly all the proceeds of the cotton crop for
those indispensable ncccS>arics. And until eve
ry planter is convinced by practical experience,
that let others do Us they may, it is for his lnd-
vidua interest to do likewise, them and not till
then, will the cotton crop be so restricted as to
bring about that desirable state of things, viz:
more money, and plenty Of pror'sion
am aware that it is maintained, upon quite
formidable authority, that the extent of the crop

for them. But an argument based on those da-

Sheen for the South.

Messrs. Editors 1t appears to me that the
Southern Planters, as class, read, think, and
reason quite too little upon the peculiarltes of
their situation and circumstances, for their own
welfare. Because certain breeds of animals are
found profitable in the North they jump to the
conclusion that the same breeds must be equally
profitable at the South, too, not rejecting for
one moment upon the great difference between
our climate and circumstances. The great heat
of our climate renders our stomachs much more
delicate, and the mutton of Clayton Reybold,
ESQ, which excites such admiration among the
eastronomes further North, would be very apt
among us, to give rise to a very different SEN
sation.
The great majority of our farmers and plan
ters at the South, raise their meats entirely tor
their own Use; and such being the case, the
breeds of animals furnishing such meats, and on
" those breeds ought to be selected, unless the
first cost should be too great, or there should be
other great objections. Generally speaking the
first cost of good animals of the different breeds,
is very much the same, therefore, Is no serious
objection. In commencing flock OF sheeP' for
instance, how few planters take the trouble to
think what object they propose to themselves in
so doing, and what breed would be the best for
their purposes-Poor rustics, as we are some

willing to allow that in the neghborhood of towns
and cities where the principal object would be to
furnish meat for Others to eat, these breeds would
probably prove the most profitable; yet as such
cases are only exceptions to the general rule, they
will rot at all weaken the force of what | am
about to say in favor of the neglected Merino.
In their adoption to our climate, soil and circum-
stances they are certainly not inferior, if they
are not decidedly superior TO any EugEsh breed;
and quite as much, if not much more, may be
said without fear of contradiction, of the quality
of their flesh and wool.
They certainly do not arrive at maturity very
early, but in return, they are very ong-vcd;
they are amongst the most prolific and the best
nurses; they are sufficiently thrifty to give no
cause of complaint, among the most healthy,
whether as mutton or lamb, is unequalled, and
their wool more valuable as we'll for coarse as
as fine fabrics costs no more to produce than
that of any other breed.
have seen comparisons drawn between them
and the larger breeds, much to their disadvan-
tage, though without reflection, appearing tc be
fair and impartial. In these comparisons no al
luson is made to the little fact that one acre will
produce just as much of Merino mutton and OF
Merino wool as of any other breed, and the great
superiority of both. Iquote no authorities in
support of my opinions, because I do not think
that such of your subscribers as read will find
anything new in them, and to such as do not
read, book authorities would not be apt to be
acknowledged as of any value.
That my opinions may not be suspected ofsel-
fshness, think it fair to state that have no
Merinos for sale, but so fully do believe in what
I have written, that I have lately been purchasing
some to take fresh start and improve my flock

MIXED MAsuREs.-Judge Longstreth, one Of
the most distinguished agriculturists fths State,
mentioned in conversation, short time since,
that he had at length got his farm hands into
the practice Of scattering, every morning when
they visited the stable, handful or two of plas-
ter over the manure excremented during the night
and previous day. In this way the amonis gas,
which is the fertilizng part, is kept in the man
ure until you want it for the crop, and then, like,
the Western man at the fight, "always find it
thar ready to feed the maws ofyour plants
In consequence of this practice of Judge LIS his
horses eyes were not injured, nor do their hu-
man attendants suffer inconvenience by the sharp,
pungent, and valuable salt escaping into, and
filling the confined atmosphere of their stables,
subsequently to be lost in the air. Their eyes
cease to water in few moments after the plas-
ter is put Virginia Free Press.

A WoMANs sVALUABLEs-Someo ofthe bright
est pages in history are those which illustrate the
herosm and fidelity of woman. We remember
of reading beautiful and affecting incident
which occurred in the wars of the Guelphs and
Ghibbelines illustrative of these traits, and which
we beg leave to commend to the notice of our
bachelor readers The Emperor of Conrad had
refused all terms of capitulaticn to the garrison
Winnesberg but, like true knight, he granted
the request of the women to pass out in safety
with such of their most precious effects as they
could themselves carry. When the gates were
opened, a long procession of matrons and maid
ems appeared, each bearing on her shoulders
not her treasures, her household goods or her
trinkets-but husband, son, father, or broth
er AS they passed through the enemies lines,
all respectfully made way for them, while the
whole camp rang with shouts of applause.
Bachelor reader, will you allow us to ask
whether there is a maid or matron on whom
you could rely for similar service, in case Of
emergency?
