An ENCOURAGING Exhibit.

The Sandersville Georgian gives the
following favorable account of Southern
enterprises -
The Northern opinion of our enterprise
and industry has always located the
Southerners in the shade of some fence
corner. lis6lessly watching,a gang of ne
groes cnltivating cotton, rice or tobacco,
or upon horseback riding over his broad
acres, whose productive capacity was
alone stimulated by the crack of his heavy
riding whip. That the Southerner pos
sessed the ingenuity or the working ca
pacity necessary to sustain himself with
out the negro, never entered the brain of
these spectators in moral philosophy and
political economy,
But the Southerners, in the midst of
the desolation, which was brought to his
door bv the vandalism of his Northern
brethren friends, will demonstrate his
self-reliance, his enterprise and his ende-
pendence of negroes and Yankees.

LABOR SAVING MAcHINERY.-We are
behind the age in almost everything
which is calculated to advance the materi-
al prosperity Of the country. With labor
saving machinery the North was able to
export an enormous quantity of bread
stuffs, and at the same time support o
million men in the army. The Northwest
has been revolutionized by these late
inventions, and land has advanced to al
most fabulous prices without CORES
ponding advance in grain, owing 10 the
reduction in the cost of cultivating it.
The time has passed when we can ridcule
and despise Yankee Inventions Wehave
no negroes to work for us now, and we
are compelled to initiate the industrious
and hardy men of the North, and avail
ourselves of. their Improvements in all
kinds of machiRsyy by which manual
labor is dispensed with, We can all take

There are at least five hundred idlers on
out streets, three-fourths of whom are
white, who would act honestly and wisely
if they sought employment in the coun-
try, and would take off their coats and
rolFup their sleeves, and go to work like
men.-iShreueport Gazette.

Facts in Farming.

There are somc things in farming that
are established, namely:
That manure must be applied, not only
to get up land, but to keep it up. That
wet soil must be drained, either by ditch
ing or otherwise. That subsoiling is good.
That grain should be sown earlier than it
generally is; that it should be harvested
earlier than it is done; that grass should
be cut when in blossom; and never when
ripe, unless for seed That our soil is
not sufficiently worked, especially in
hoed crops; that stirring the soil and
keeping it we'll pulverized, is partial
guard against drouth. That the most
advantageous grain for horses is the oat !;
that it improves fodder to cook or steam
it. That warm shelter in winter saves
fodder, and benefits stock. That the best
blood is the most profitable. That there
is much advantage in selecting the best
seed, the earliest matured and the plump
est. That in-and-in breeding is not good
in close and consecutive relationship, but
must be carried on by foreign infusion of
the same blood. That warm quarters and
good treatment are necessary in winter
to produce eggs from most hens. That
top-dressing grass lands should be done
with fine, well-rotted manure, applied
close to the ground. That it is, in gene
raj, best to sell produce as soon as ready
for market That blackberries require
rich soil; strawberries and raspberries
vegetable mould-such as rotten leaves,
chip manure, &c. That more lime should
be used That salt, in some cases, is good
for land-also, plaster, the phosphates,
guano, &C. That fall ploughing is the
best for clay lands; that land should not
be plowcd wet. That young orchards
should be cultivated. That compost
heaps are good institution. That clay
and lime, rather than animal manure, be
employed in raising fruit. That manure
should be rotted before it is used That
agricultural papers are an advantage to
the farmer That a cultivated mind is
requisite to high farming, and that good
reputation cxcrts good influence on the
farming community.-Rura1 World.

HINTs-AGRIcULTURAL AND uoRTIcUL-
TURAL-Never mix ashes with o super
phosphate. They will change it to an
insoluble phosphate.
Peruvian guano is best for those remote
from railroad or river communication. as
it is most condensed.
Ono bushel OF carrots is as good in
feeding stock of any kind as bushel of
corn. Carrots like rich, light soil; will
yield from 4 to 600 bushels to the acre.
The seed should bo soaked thirty-six
hours before planting. Ashes and salt
are good manures for them. Plant in
drills about Il inches apart, and when
the plants are 8 ORA inches high, thin out
to 6 inches January, February and
March are the best months for planting.
Onions do best in old ground, q light,
sandy loan; must be kept free of weeds,
and worked constantly; will produce
500 bushels to the acre. Four pounds
of good new seed, are sufficient to plant
an acre. New land requires five or six
pounds Put in rows perfectly straight
about one foot apart. When the tops be-
gin to fall over, the onion is maturing
rapidly; but sometimes, when the crop is
backward, tits necessary to bend the tops
over. This is done by rolling barrel OF
keg over two rows at time. In digging
be careful not to cut any, for one DANA
ged one will ruin all. For manure, use
heavy dressing of. well -rotted manure

1t is pretty poor practice for far
mer to dig and delve, tug and grub, and
clear up fifty acres of land at a cost OF
two thousand dollars, and then in the

General BusI.ess.
With our railroad communications cut
of by the loss of bridges, the plantations
along our rivers o7er1Owed, and our
thoroughfares almost impossible from
mud, it is not to be wondered at that
business should be dull in every branch.
The 4" wheels of commerce are very
nearly at q stand still. The receipts of
all kinds were light to-day, and the grain
market very quiet. Our merchants have
time to shelve and assort their new
stocks, which they are doing briskly,
preparatory to the opening up of the
spring campaign. The extra tariff levied
upon wooden goods has so far had no
effect on our market though our dis
patches quote an advance in New York.
COTTON-A fair inquiry was kept up
throughout the day for medium and low
grades, but holders show no signs of Civ
ing way. Mlddling was bought at q to
275c, and a few lots of bright were seld

ITALIAN OPERA.-The horrible condi-
tion Of tie streets, and the raw uncOm-
Portable weather prevailing all the week,
has doubtless compelled many persons OF
musical taste and culture to deny them
selves the rich lyric treat afforded by the
superior rendition of all the operas thus
far presented by the Roncari opera
troupe = incomparably the best, as a
whole, we have ever heard south Of New
York, and Ia many respects superior to
several we have listened 10 with gratih-
cation, even in the metropolis Of the
United States. This evening the selec-
ton IL Donizetti's well known and al
ways popular, Lucia di LGnmerHoOr,

gems combining a high order Of lyrical
composition, with that touching pathos
and simplicity insepsrable from the plot
Of the story, and which sppeals very
forcibly alike to the Imagination and
heart Of the masses. Many Of the airs
finger pleasingly in bur remembrance
for days after hearing them, and,
rare excellence, delight the musical
amateur, as well as the uncultivated in
taste for operate music, more than al
any composition for the lyric stage
with which we are familiar SuAG

POETs.-Poets are proyerbialiy the
most impractical people on the earth.
Their frank disgust against the details
Of business, their want of the all i'm
portsnt qualities OF sharpness" and
shrewdness-the ease with which they
can be imposed upon, and their igno-
rance Of the art Of making s dollar
double itself, is delightfully."- refreshing
in this money scrambiing age, whose
appropriate type is old Bunyan's man OF
the muck-rske-so intent in gathering
around him his worthless trash, thst
his eyes were never raised to the
golden crown above him. The
truth is that poets belong to God
and nature, and not TO the world. They
need somebody to take care Of them all
their lives. Being msgneticslly winning
and ~lovesble, lin spite of their little &C.
centricities) they usually attract to them
some strong, practical, faithful nature,
upon which to lean their physical weak
ness, while their ideal being resehes
boldly upward and outward. These self
sacrificing natures, who thus devote
themselves to the support of genius, are
usually feminine, such as the Mary"
of Cowper, and the mother-in-law Of
Poe, and so many others, whose names
and memories shine within the halo of
the genius they served to sustain.
