Sweet Corn,

1t a surprising fact that sweet corn is
not abundantly grown among farmers.
Every farmer thinks he must raise his
fve or ten acres of Indian corn every
year, in order to have something to fat
ten his pork, and to furnish fodder for
bis stock, etc Now, if every farmer
would grow three to five acres of sweet
corn, his crop would prove of much more
value in proportion to the number Of
acres than Indian corn for feeding pur-
poses.
Last spring / planted six acres Of
sweet corn, for the purpose of taking 1t
into market green. But, after the mar.
ket became "glutted," concluded to
save the balance Of my corn, and cure il

The Famine in south Carolina

Mr.. W. Gilmore Simms writes from
Midway, South Carolina:
"As far as | can see, there is no pos
sible escape from general famine, in
which all will suffer, many perish. In
a precinct of fifty miles in this district,
there is not more than one planter in iif-
ty who has corn enough to last him a
single month; not more than one in two
hundred who has enough for two
months; none that have any that can
last three months; and of these there is
hardly more than five in the hundred
who will be able to supply themselves
with provisions Of any sort, unless by
borrowing money on mortgage, not on
ly of the growing crop, but Of the lands,
and at such rate Of interest that no
crop they can make can possibly save
them from ruin. A great many will al
most or quite starve, unless they can
get help from some other resources than
their own Briefly, the famine which
threatens the land is all over the land,
and no one region can help the other.
The mules and horses, especially when
owned by the negroes, and upon which
the hope for next years crop must
greatly depend, are dying of work with
out food. They literally drop down in
the harness, and much the same sort of
picture may be drawn of the humans,
white and black. Life is prolonged
solely by spasmodic efforts and all sorts
of expedients, day by day, the parties
not regarding any sacrifice which will
yield the means of daily subsistence to
their families. Unless the charities Of
the outer world are more prompt and
more bountiful, ! do not see what is to
avert the fate of thousands to whom the
peck or bushel of corn, which sufiices
Tor week, must simply prolong the
agony Of a death by inches"
