How to Get Large Wheat Crops.

AOH " OCS Ao4 sc " hC0I O4OPS'
1t is fact that the lands Of Germany,
that have been in cultivation from one to
two hundred years, are now richer than
they were when first cleared up. That
shows that the farmers there deposit as
much nutriment on the lands as their crops
yearly take from them. In the South the
farmers wear out their lands in ten years,
and then become dissatisfied with their ex.
hausted lands, and spend what little they
may have made in the past five years NOV
ing further west In quest of fresh lands, to
repeat their destructive process of wasting
soil. We hope our farmers will take some
lessons from practical scientific cultivators
of the soil. A writer In the Ohio Farmer
makes the following sensible remarks on
the mode of producing large wheat crops,
and says "Tbat thirty or forty bushels can
be raised per acre." AS was stated in the
last number of the Model Farmer last year
the wheat crop averaged only nine bushels
per acre, falling short of one-third to a
fourth Of what good farmers think it should
be. The South should change its mode of
farming. Not barrel of -four raised north
of the Ohio river should ever be sold in our
market Read and learn from the Belgians.
In Belgium, where they have grown
wheat for thousand years, they still grow
fifty bushels per acre they do not waste
their manners, but put it all on the land at
the right time, and in the best manner
they do not grow weeds in that country,
for they want all tie strength of the land
FOR their large grain crops. Climate infu-
enoes prevent us in this &C untry. as a gen
eral rule, from raising these large crops Of
wheat, but we cen in good seasons, grow
from thirty to forty bushels per acre. if put
in right. What we want to do here is to
SOW more clover plaster, ashes, make more
manure, take better care oft when made,
put in wheat in better order, underdrain
our fat lands, and then they will grow
wheat. Now all this can and will be done
and we shall have plenty of wheat.

We learn from the Western papers
that the spring emigration has
already opened, and that parties are
moving from the Central States
Westward to the Mississippi, the
Missouri and beyond. An unusually
large number of settlers are expected
this year, because Of the hard times,
the stagnation of business. and the
scarcity of employment in the East

REaIsTER! REaIsTER!--We hope the
young men of this city will not hesi-
tate to come forward and avail them
selves of the last chance to be regis
tered. We regret exceedingly to
learn that some Of them are hesitat-
ing to incur what they Justly call the
humiliation of taking part in the
political action under existing laws.
We confess that we are completely at
q loss to comprehend the principles
which influenced them to such
course. We think no man has a
right to withhold his name from the
registry, unless he is willing to see
the State perish. We all owe sa-
cred duty to the common veal,
which, in view of our responsibility
to God and our country, cannot be
ignored. Whatever may be the con-
sequences of action, every Southern
heart should enjoy that consolation
that ever flows from n consciousness
of duty faithfully performed. Let
as try 10 keep tie power in our
hands. Persons who do not want to
be governed by men who seek to
array race against race, should regis
ter. Those who wish to preserve
their political rights should register.
People who do not wish to see the
State Governments used as the agen-
cies of plumber and revenge by the
bitter enemies of our people, should
register. People who wish to protect
themselves from political proscrip-
tion and civil disabilities, should re-
gister. Charleston Ne,os.

four candidates, one opposed to the

Tho new Prospsots for IRELAND.
THE Fenian rebellion in Ireland
and England seems to lave ended
1t is several weeks since We have had
any accounts Of those marvellous ex:.
ploits in the way of capturing "Mar-
tello towers" blowing mp houses or
exploding nitro-glycerine. We hear
mo more of assemblages 81 men M for
drilling in the mountains, or of the
danger. OF, an uprising in, Dublin, or
of the discovery. of secreted arms.
The trials of those arrested for parti-
cipating in these movements, are
mostly over; and about q dozen of
them, who have'been convicted, have
been sent To- prison. In the mean
time, the English authorities are be-
ginning to talk of clemeroy to the
convicts. -Four have, been released
on condition of returning to Ameri-
Ca, and it is reported that number
of others, including General Nagle,
will also be. liberated on the same
terms. These things, the New York
Times thinks, look as though Fenian-
ism, as q rebellious movement, had
fzzled out; and they look as, though
the British Government were aware
of the fact and ready to act on it.
The battle for Irish rights is now
transferable the floor of the British.

.piOns are English politicians, who
have triumphed on other fields. and

cure her that Justice which belongs

grievance of the Established Church,
by altering the ruinous system of
Land tenure. by extending educa-
tional advantages, by enlarging the

people that the course of England
toward them has changed-and that
henceforth they will enjoy all the
rights and privileges belonging to
Englishmen themselves, and will
have opportunities of political pro-
gress on equal terms with any other

day is the third anniversary Of the
incubation of our "bird gofi fire." as
it was hatchpd in ths y littls nest on
Gates street after many trials and
tribnlations,on the 21sb Of March,
1s65-thirty-two days after the dc.
struction of Columbia. A poetic
friend thus chronicled the event:
"kind readers. in the darkest hours
=. Our city e'er has kuown,-...
Her. peaceful homes, her gardens fair,
With wreck and ruin strown.
Her. commerce ruined, and her sons
Bowed low beneath the rod
PLACED in afflictioh's chast'ning hand
BY an Omniscient God.
Her business marts, her gayest
streets,
Were shrouded then in gloom,
And even stoutest henrts gave way
Before the threatened DOOM.
Grim poverty and hunger gaunt,
Spectres, till then unknown,
Stnlked through our blackened,
crumbling walls,
And claimed us for their own.
Twas then the fedgling Phemi.c rose,
And made its first essay
On feeble wings, to greet with hope
The coming, brighter day!
Our city, 'Phenix-ike,' will rise
Zen fairer than before;
Our gardens and our pleasant homes
Will bloom and smile once more"
During these three years we have
overcome may difficulties, and secur-
ed permanent place of abode for
our bird, from whence it is. daily sent
forth with its budget of nows. And
with this brief announcement of the
return of the natal day of the, paper,
we close the subject; but with gen.
tie reminder to the few defanlting
readers, that if they desire to con-
tinue receiving the visits of the afore-
said bird, it is absolutely necessary
that they should drop in and pay
