REGISTRATION. - The registration OF
the voters Of Davidson is progressing slowly.
As many blacks as whites have been
furnished with certificates. We hear that
our oolored citizen, Rev. N. G. Merry APP
piled for a certificate, and was refused on
the ground that he was Robe and that
upon his attempting 10 expestulate was IN
formed that if he did not leave the Office
he would be kicked out. Ii is intimated,
privately, that Merry's opposition to the
nomination Of the Bureauerat, Lawrence,
for Congress, is at the bottom Of his reiec-
ton. The reverend gentleman must take
his rude treatment patiently. Thousands
Of his white brethren in the State-men
who have ever been true TO the old flag
are in the same boat with him.

the Hog Cholera.

The following communication is pub
,lished in the Southern Culticator for
October:
In the August number of your paper,
vour correspondent c., in speaking of hogs,
saws: "their diseases are few and simple,
except cholera" of which he is not pre-
pared to treat. If the cholera is not
simple disease, very simple treatment Will
cure it and why is it, Messrs. Editors,
that so many persons are so Ignorant OF this
fatal disease in hogs, and its proper treat
ment2 1t is for the want of investigation.
1t has ever been a matter of surprise to me,
that 40 little attention-yea, / might say no
attention-has been given to this subject.
When the disease first made its appearance
among my hogs, | knew of no remedy for
it-all seemed TO regard it as incurable.
Nv hogs died rapidly. | decided that |
would try some experiments on them, as il
could do no harm. As soon as one refused
10 eat, put it in a pen, and il its bowels
we're oostive, (which is apt 10 be the case,
in the first stages of the disease / gave it
a large dose of salts-say a tea-cup half
full 10 a hog year old or upwards. IL it
did not act freely in five or SIX hours, l re-
peated the dose, which always had the de-
sired effect. As soon as the color of the
operations began TO change, / gave it two
tea-spoonsful of laudanum, in about as much
warm water, and repeated the dose, if neces-
sarv.in five or six hours. | never had to give
the third dose, and frequently one would
answer. | discovered by this simple eI-
pertinent. sure and speedy cure Tor this
destructive disease. / have treated great
many. and always found it certain cure,
II given in time. Hogs that are running of
at the bowels, need nothing but laudanum.
The disease made its appearance again in
wear or two among my hogs, but was pre-
pared for il, and soon relieved them, while
many lost nearly all their hogs. There is
no difficulty in dreuching a hog, as some
might suppose. Turn the hog upon has
back mt a stick in his mouth, TO prevent
his hitting off the bottle neck, and they are
very easily drenohed.
II Won think, Messrs. Editors, the above
is worth a place in the OuitipatOr, you may
publish it. / am highly pleased with the
Cisltiuator, and will try and send you several
new subscribers for the next volume.
think that every farmer should take it. In
This dav of improvement and inventions,
they cannot keep up with the times with
cut such a paper. Yours truly,

The IonrI,ton yYhent
A gentleman living in Dnplin county,
y. G, writes as follows

A gentleman living in Dnplin county,
n C., writes as follows
Last fall l received from the department
a small bag of TappAhannock or early
Boughton wheat This wheat (about one
quart ] sowed in drills, eighteen inches
apart, on the 18th of October. The land
was a stiff, sandy loan, as fertile as land
can we'll be made here. Immediately after
the wheat came up the grasshoppers de-
stoyed about one-fourth OF it. In February
gave the wheat a top dressing of guano
and phosphate of lime, mixed at the rate of
two hundred pounds to the acre In April
the rabbits destroyed nearly one>fourth of
the remainder. The wheat headed out the
last week in April, and in May took the
rust ON the blades, iniuring it TO some eK-
tent. On the 10th of June harvested the
crop, obtaining yield of three bushels and
one peck of wheat from the one quart Of
saed-one hundred and twenty fold-an
enormous yield for this section. The wheat
grew. on an average, five feet in height and
ripened ten days earlier than our fall wheat.
