Why is It?

Why is it. asks the Nsw York Tribune,
that in the cities alone riotous demonstra-
tiOns occur? In the country. where there
may be said TO be no constabnlary, every
thing goes on with perfect order and quiet.
The New York World has found the true
solution to the question in the fact. that on
the plantations the negro is brought into
contact with Southern whites only, where
as in the cities ineendiary Radicals have
free access to him, and are exerting all
their energy and ingenuity to breed mis-
chief If the World was living among US,
it could not have shown better appTeeia-
tion Of tIe real source Of our troubles.

Radical agitatora have yet spoken Nateh-

free speck is less tolerated than in other
parts Of the South, and where light is
consequently most needed. It is quite
plain that the Jacobin leaders will never be
satisfied with the success of their South
ern missionaries, unless some of them sue
ceed in losing their worthless lives at the
hands of an exasperated people.

Low to Grow Cuoumbers.

A correspondent tells MOore's RuraL
New Yorker how to raise large crop of
cueumbers on small territory. Spade up
a plot ten or twelve feet in diameter, as
near the back door as practicable take an
old barrel, both heads out, and sink one
end of it six inches in the center of the
plot; fill the barrel nearly full of yard ma
nure, any kind, pound it in we'll plant
row of seed. six inches fFom and quite
around it, and direct the kitchen girl to
empty her dish water. at least once a day,
into said barrel, and you win soon have Gu
cumbers at wholesale. No bugs, hum or
other, about this.

The Garden Soil.

Constantly improve this; endeavor to
reach the point where its productive pow
.er cannot be impoverished. You viii be.
asEonished as the Essult, and think the
lands round about you little better than a
desert. SOds from old grass land, piled
with leaf mould or stable manure and leach
ed ashes, make compost that will inn
prove any soil. But if the soil be clay
add sharp sand also. This is the season to
make the compost heap.

Obligations Of the Public to the Medi-

cal Profession.
From the Atlanta Medical Journal.
It is proposed in this paper to submit
few thoughts in relation to the want of ap-
probation, by the people, of the peculiar
difficulties which, to the medical profess
sion, more than any other. have resulted
from the late unfortunate war. The cause
of medical science, not less than the inter
ests of the practitioner, is jeopardized
add it would seem, therefore, duty, both
to the public and the profession, to speak
out upon this subject.
In former times, the principles Of medi-
cal ethics, by which we were governed,
were, in some degree, understood and ac-
quiesed in by the more intelligent of the
community. These principles recognized
certain reciprocal obligations between the
members of the medical profession and
the public, and both were expected to per-
form their part ; now, hswever, the rule
appears 10 be changed-the physician is
expected to perform his obligations, while
the people seem to regard themselves re-
leased from theirs.
We think it may be said, without boast
ing, that the true men of the medical pro
fession in Georgia, and indeed throughout
the whole South. are endeavoring TO dis
charge their duties to science, and to tbs
public, and are moving onward, despite
! the adverse circumsta ices Of the times, il
the same noble and benevolent spirit which
! has ever characterized medical nen as Z
/ class.
On the other hand, what can We say o
the conduc, of the public towards the pro
fession Amid the turmoil Of confusion
Of business pursuits. aud the anxieties IN
cident to the present disturbed state Of tb'
country, men seem to have lost sight 0
those great principles and rules Of actor
which look to the general welfare. One o
these rules which should govern the con
duct Of every good citizen. Is the further
ance of science. and the advocacy Of truth
The great progress Of medical science il
the last half century, and the discoveries
resulting therefrom, have proven Of ineal
culable benefit to mankind. Take the sin
4 gle article Of chloroform. and reflect upor
the relief it afforded 70 thousands Of oul
suffering soldiers during the late h0rribi'
