Farming in the South.

Cotton is no longer king. The
abolition of slavery has killed off
cotton raising in the South to a
very great extent, and we must
now look around and experiment
to find out what will be the most
profitable products under the new
order of things. Our belief is
that we can break up every YAM
kee cotton mill In the North or
compel them to remove to the
Southern States, by refusing to
raise more cotton than we can
manufacture within our own bor-
ders; and by raising our own pro-
visions we will destroy the best
market of the Western people.
We can raise as good corn, wheat,
rye, oats; and hay here as they
can in Illinois, Indiana OR Ohio,
and we can beat them raising po-
tatoes, tobacco, hemp, cotton, and
all kinds of fruit and vegetables.
We can raise horses, mules, cattle,
hogs, sheep, goats and poultry a
great deal cheaper here than they
can in any country where they
have to feed stock six months in
theyear, asis the case in the North
ern States. All we want is a start
in that direction. We must i'm
port improved breeds of all kinds
Of stock, and quit raising scrub
stock. We must experiment with
all kinds of grasses, until we find
something that will stand cur hot
suns. He must save manure to
reclaim our worn-out fields, and
we must get labor-saving machi-
merry to take the place of slave Ia
Dor. But, above all, our white
population must go to work on our
farms, because negro labor cannot
be depended on. We must cul-
tivate less quantity of land and
cultivate it better. We must di-
versify our crops, and not be de-
pendent on cotton alone.

vailing malady. Here is the pre-
scription
1t consists In enhaling through
the nose the emanations ofammonia
contained in smelling bottle. Ii
the sense of smell is complete,
ly obIiterated the bottle should be
kept under the nose until the
pungency of the volatile alkali Is
1elt. The bottle is then removed,
but only to be reapplied after a
minute; the second application,
however, should not be long, that
the patient may bear it. This ca
sy operation being repeated seven
or eight times in the course of five
minutes, but always very rapidly,
except the first time, the nostrlls
become free, the sense of smell is
restored, and the secretion of the
irritating mucus is stopped. The
remedy is said to be peculiarly ad-
vantageous to singers.

The Labor Question.

A friend Of ours, who has re-
Gently returned from a visit to
Carroll county, Miss, reports the
following significant circumstance
as having come under his observa-
ton while there: Old Mr.. v,
"a large planter in that country,
who gave employment this year
to one hundred freedmen, having
determined to reduce his force, call
ed all his employees up few morn
ings go,and acquainted them with
his intention. He then selected
twenty ofthe best hands and offered
TO give the men 81 and the wo-
men 81 per month and board for
their services next year. He told
them to think about it and give
him an answer the next day.
Bright and early next morning
the favored twenty made their
appearance and expressed their
readiness to accept the proposition
that had been offered. During
the day a large number of those
not included in the proposition
came to Mr.. v, and asked to be
allowed to remain and work on
the plantation for their victuals
and clothes, but their services were
declined.-Jdck8on Nhig.
