These and other similar outrages daily 90
curing throughout the late Confederaoy in
dicate that the spirit OF rebellion has, once
more become fairly rampant. -Ths teachings
OF the Democracy of to-day are having their
natural effect. The dire spirit which pervaded
and controlled the Tammany Convention has
permeated the entire late Confederacy, from
North Carolina to Arkansas, aud is bringing
forth fruits in abundance. The late Contede-
rates accepted the platform and temper OF
that body as an invitation to begin the work Of
anarchy, and they have not been slow to act
upon it. Tammany warmed into life all the
smouldering elements of the Rebellion. Fresh
from its counsels, Vance, Hampton, Forrest,
ct al proceeded southwark to herald the glad
tidings that the Democratic party was to
secure for them all the objects for which they
had fought. The people have believed this.
Misled by their public men, they have be-
lieved that the Democratic party was certain
Of success, and would achieve all it promised
to do. They have believed that General Blair's
programme would be carried out, and so i'm
patient have they been to carry on the work
that they have not been able to wait until the
Democratic party was duly installed in power.
We have in these Camilla and 0pelousas
butcheries foretaste of the scenes which
would trans pire through the late Confederacy
were Seymour and Blair to be successful at
the polls. The announcement of their cleo
tion would be the signal for inaugurating a
war upon the Unionists irrespective of color.
The Mobile Register, Tuscaloosa Monitor, Mont
gomery Mail, Mobile Telegraph, and other
exponents of Southern opinion, have already
assured us that when that day comes the
''carpet-baggers" will have to travel forth
with, and the blacks follow after them unless
they mend their ways. Said the Richmond
Examiner, the other day-"They (the whites)
will demonstrate their superiority to the negro
race. in a manner that will make the naked
savsges of Ethiopia for centuries to come,
howl with horror at the name of Southern
white man."
If now, with an impending election, an 1
when the World and Richmond Wing, warned
by Vermont and Maine, are counselling mode
ration, these unrepentant Rebels indulge in
such pastimes, what might we not expect in
the event of Seymour and Blair's success 7
Happily, however, no such calamity awaits
| the country. The election of General Grant
will put an end to all this Rebel outrage and
wrong. Pardoned Confederates who attempted
| to overthrow the Government will learn that
those who stood by that Government have
rights they must and shall respect. They
will be made to learn that freedom of speech
must and shall prevail from the Potomac to
the Rio Grande; that we must and shall have
peace in fact as well as in name.
Meanwhile the Washington authorities
should hasten to aid those of Louisiana in
making a thorough examination into this last
butchery, and fixing the responsibility where
| it belongs.

More Results of Democratic Teachings.

From the ~. y Commercial Advertiser.
The official investigation of the Camilla
(Ga.) massacre has hardly been completed
before we are called upon to chronicle another
bloody butchery at Opelousas, the capital OF
st. Landry Parish, Louisiana. Itwas another
deliberate preconcerted movement to crush
out Unionism in that region, and restore
Rebel supremacy. According to the New
Orleans Bulletin, q virulent Democratic sheet,
one hundred Unionists were killed and fifty
wounded, whereas only four Democrats were
wounded, and none killed. The Crescent,
another Democratic sheet, is confident that
radicalism is done for in ST. Landry Parish, at
least for this Presidential campaign.
Mr.. Vidal, member OF Congress from Loui-
siana, established some time since at ST. Lam
dry, the Progress, Republican paper. 1t has
been edited by Mr.. Bentley, who likewise
teaches a school at that place. On Monday last
squad of Rebels set upon Mr.. Bentley, in the
presence of his pupils, and proceeded to chas-
tise him. His friends gathered to his rescue.
He, however, urged them to disperse to their
homes, assuring them that he should sue out
warrants for the arrest of the ruffians who had
set upon him. Meanwhile, the ex-COnfederates
began to assemble in large numbers, with arms,
and soon became an uncOntrollable mob, thirst
ing for blood. They proceeded to the Progress
office, threw the type and press into the
river, and seizing the French editor, Mr..

where he was lynched. The foreman of the
printing department was compelled to flee for
safety. Now began cold blooded, heartless
butchery. The fends scattered through the
! town and neighbering plantations, shooting as
they went, until one hundred and fifty blacks
fell victims to their demoniac fury. The latter
| appear to have made no resistance as only
four of their prosecutors were wounded. Such,
in brief, are the details of this horrid affair,
the accounts OF the New Orleans Bulletin and
Republican substantially agreeing The fleeing
foreman of the printing office has arrived in
| New Orleans, and states that the Rebels have
determined to kill or drive out all the
Unionists, white or black, from the Opelousas
District. The New Orleans Times (Democrat)
OF late date, has an account of an affair al
Shreveport which resulted in the death O.
fifteen Unionists and three Rebels. The Other

Recently the inmates of house
in the Rue d'Orleans, Paris, were
amazed by the sound Of a frighful
breakage of porcelain and household
goods, and q hideous outcry in a
suit of rooms which had been occu-
pied for fifteen days by newly mar
ried couple.
The young husband was mad with
rage, his wife wept and believed him
to be insane.
The young man showed her a let
ter which he had found.
"What does this mean?" said he.
"I-I-was afraid to show it to
you," she stammered.

This was the text of the letter from
the country.
"Miss--: Having learned that
you were lately married, / rite to no
if your husband will please let me
continue to have the cair of your two
children"
When one has married a young Ia
dy of extraordinary leauty, with o
modest face, in which blush shows
itself frequently, it is rather startling
to receive such anote.
Still, it is always we'll to make in
quiries before proceeding to break
the plates.
And this was the explanation: The
two little children were two little
nephews, children of the wife's sister
who had died two years before II
Russia. Proofs conclusive.
Before which the husband, no lon
ger jealous, made his excuses, ant
the children were adopted.
New plates we're bought. and all il
going well.

large and Small Seed Potatoes.
The discussion of the question wheth-
er there will be any difference in the
yield Of potatoes when large and small
seed Is used, is about as useless as the
controversy continually going on rela-
tive to the influence Of the moon upon
vegetation, or the possibility Of wheats
turning to chess. All, nor any of these
questions will not be settled until
dooms-day.
In regard to seed potatoes the whole
matter appears to rest about here-it
small seed is selected from the same
variety for number of years consecu-
lively, the stock will degenerate and ul-
timately run out; but for the first year
or two, small seed planted from stock
in its perfection will show but little il
any difference in yield from those pro-
duced from the best potatoes in the bin
and but little apparent loss In quality,
ANY variety Of potatoes may be inn
proved by always selecting the very
best for seed, but the Improvement will
be as gradual as the decline when small
ones are used.

FARMERS COLUMN.
Liberal yIanuring of Small FruII
Crops.

One of the many errors to which
amateur. and even regular fruit growers
are liable, is the impression, that fruit
plants require little or no manure. We
are aware that manuring may be carried
70 such an extent. as to become posi-
lively hurtful; but this is rarely done,
the mistake being in the other direc-
ton. We have on a number of occa-
sions had opportunities of witnessing
the wretched results of this "penny
wise and pound foolish' economy. -
Whatever may he said to the contrary,
it is demonstrable by the most positive
proof that haf-starved strawberry
plant will not produce crop good
either in quantity or quality. 1t would
be supposed that the practical expert
ence of old fruit growers shonld have
taught them this, and yet they do not
appear to have improved the lesson, We
have in our minds eye, plantation of
strawberries, set out last spring upon
new and very poor soil, The plants
were not particularly vigorous at the
time they were set ont, in fact some OF
them had been kept out of the ground
SO long, that faint hopes were enter
tanned Of their growing at all. The
owner having faith in fertilizers, imme-
diately procured a supply of pigeon
manure, which was mixed with Baugh's
Raw Bone Super Phosphate, and muck
fresh from the swamps. After allow
ing it to lie undisturbed for few days,
or until it began to heat; the heap was
then spitted down and thoroughly
turned over. In the course Of the next
two or three days this operation was
repeated, and once again shortly after.
The compost was now ready for appli-
cation to the newly set-out plants. A
dressing was given to each hill, the
compost being well mixed with the soil
surrounding the plants. In less than a
week, the plants assumed most vigor-
GUS and healthful appearance. Those
which at setting out were regarded as
about hopeless, commenced to grow
thiittily. The foliage became abun-
dant and of deep rich green. Three
weeks after, a similar dressing, together
withproper cultivation, was given them,
and at the close of the season, it may
be safely said that a finer plantation Of
strawberries, covering in extent nearly
two acres, was not to be found in New
Jersey In broad contrast to this, was
a plantation on an adjoining farm, sol
and plants the same. On this lattel
plantation little or no manure was ap
piled, the owner trusting to luck. The
results at the end of the season were
an almost total failure We mention
these facts, in order to stimulate small
fruit growers into more liberal spiri
of manuring their crops. 1t will pay
as certainly as that day follows night
and it may be set down as an incontro
vertible axiom, that the most unproft
able Of all small fruit cultivation is
that which ignores the liberal use o
proper manures. Let our cultivator
make a note of this.--Am. Agicultm4St
