How to Plant successfully.

To the Editors Of the Daily NewS:
Facts are stubborn things, which cannot be
denied nor alterered, and the sooner sensible
men come to this conclusion and wake up to a
proper sense OF their present situation, the
better it will be for them and the prosperity OF
the country.
Slavery has been abolished, and with it, in q
great measure, the old system of agriculture.
Hereafter planting or farming must be con-
Quoted on much smaller scale, and it will re-
quire, and must receive, strict personal atten-
ton, if success is desired or looked for. Land
has been made to produce very large crops by
careful personal attention, a wise system OF
thorough under-draining, deep ploughing, a
bountiful supply of fertilizers, with proper
cultivation. That which has been done by
some men can be done by others, and to be
successful, all these matters must be strictly
attended to, and if properly done, the business
can be made profitable, the land permanently
improved and greatly enhanced in value.
1t is gratifying to know that there are some
few Southern farmers who are alive to the pre-
sent condition Of affairs, and are governing
themselves accordingly. They plant less land,
and in many instances more than double the
crops formerly made are realized. The March
number of the Southern Cultivator, published
in Athens, Ga, contains an account of an ex-
pertinent on sixteen acres Of land, by David
Dickson, of Sparta, Hancock county. Ga, on
which he raised last year two good bags OF
clean cotton to the acre. On one portion he
raised at the rate of 5000 pounds, and on anoth-
er, the next best, 5000 pounds seed cotton to
the acre. Such results came from proper at
tention, good management, and liberal use Of
fertilizers.
Stir your land well by deep ploughing, use
fertilizers abundantly, drain the land freely
all these matters properly attended to, will
make the land fruitful and the situation heal
thy. THOROUGH DRAINAGE.

READy-MADE CLOTHING FOR THE SUatMEa.-
Messrs. MacuIlar, Williams & Parker announce
in our columns to-day, the opening of stock
of summer clothing at prices which place
summer suit within the reach of all. The ad-
vantages of buying goods from this firm are ::
1. That you can purchase nothing under the
Misrepresentation of clerks. The reputation
of the house forbids it. 2. That the clothing
is made in substantial, durable and fashion
able style by their own employees; the work
being fully equal to any done at a merchant
tailor's. 8. That their stock consists entirely
Of new goods, made expressly for the coming
season, and owing to it's large variety and adj
mirable arrangement, as well as the skill and ez-
perience Of the salesmen, good fit can readily be
obtained; and4. That the prices ofthe goods are
marked down to a figure from which neither
love nor money will cause deviation. We cor
daily commend Messrs. Messrs. Macullar, Will
iams Parker to the public, and ask for their
attractive catalogue careful examination.

FIR ST SHIPMENT FROM THE ASHLEY PHos-
PHATE BEDs.-The first shipment of phosphate
from the companys works, on Ashley River,
was made yesterday by the schooners T. G.
Smith and Anna Barton, which cleared from
this port, carrying 800 tons. The headquar-
ters Of the company are at Ashley Ferry and
Maryville, two plantations on the Ashley, and
generally considered to be the centre of the
basin which contains the mari. The arrange
ments for the largest development of the re-
sources Of the locality are being rapidly per-
fected. Two large steam washers, of forty
horse power, are in process Of construction,
and when completed, they will enable those
working the beds to turn out, 1t may be said,
almost unlimited quantities of the phosphate.
This department Of labor is under the control
of Mr.. Nicholas, the agent Of the patentee.
These ''marl beds" have evidently become
quite an object of curiosity. Hundreds Of
Northern tourists have visited the spot, and
nearly every week a score or more of new
faces arrive for the purpose Of Choking
round"

CANNED PRESERVES, MEATS, FISH, OYSTERS
AND PrcK1Es.-Numsen, Carroll & Co., of No.
1s Light-street, Baltimore, are already largely
and favorably known to our merchants as the
grand tycoons among the ''preservers of their
country" There is scarcely an establishment
in the country which does not contain upon it's
shelves more or less Of their preparations, and
We believe that the universal verdict is that
they are durable and good.
The firm are likewise joint proprietors and
sole agents for Borden's Condensed Milk, with
out which cup Of coffee is nowhere, and a
nursing baby the mos: wretched being in e1is-
tence. We hope our merchants will continue
to supply themselves with the classes Of goods
above named from this source, and feel well
assured that the evidence Of the past is sufR-
cient guaranty of the future.

A TAIL OF BLooD.-We learn that while one
of the street cars was passing by the market
yesterday, it ran over somebody's sold dog
Tray" A crowd Immediately assembled (who
ever saw an apple-stand knocked over in
Charleston without gathering multitude p,
and speculations were rife as to the name, iden-
tity and pedigree of the suffering cur. One
person Of an economical turn of mind wondered
whether the tax on his dorg-ship had been
paid, and if not, suggested that the city rail-
road should pay the same into the municipal
Golfers. In the midst of all this discussion, q
drayman seizad the mangled remains, which
had just life enough left in them to feebly wag
their ensanguined caudal extremity, and hus-
tied them upon bis cart; whereupon an in
charitable freedman observed, with knowing
look at the dayman, "De mex time yer hear
OBJ dat dog, jes' whistle right loud somewhere
down in de market, and if yer don't see bunch
oh sassengers go wiggle-waggle, dis chile don't
know de man who dribe dat keert. Ee-yah
