Corn and Cotton in Georgia.

We see it stated in the Columbus and
Macon papers that the crop in Georgia this
year is about equally divided between corn
and cotton. Should the seasons be favora-
BILE, corn will be lower than it has been for
ten years. 1t is generally manured and
the stand was never better. AT present, it
is too early to say much about cotton. The
Macon Journal says emphatioally '.There
"will not be any more land in cotton in
"South Western Georgia this year than
"there was last"
1t is not yet too late to plant corn in
South Carolina. Half corn and half cotton
should be our motto. We do not wish to be
prophets of evil but we know that, unless
we make breadstufs enough to relieve US
from the necessity Of buying them in the
North and West, the cotton crop of 1869
1870 will do ths State at large, the planters
and the farmers, but little lasting good.
The money received for the cotton will be
paid away for corn, and so will end the
chapter.

The Grain Trade OF ,he West.

The simultaneous movements at st. Louis
and New Orleans. of which we have had tele-
graphic accounts, in connection with the grain
trade, are nothing less than an effort to divert
the grain exports Of the Northwest from the
route via Chicago, Buffalo and New York to
Europe, and make the Mississippi River the
great channel for this trade. The movement
seems to have started in st. Louis, which is
anxious to become the great grain emporium
of the Mississippi Valley. Meetings have been
held, glowing speeches ade, and considerable
money subscribed for the promotion of that
object. The Missouri Democrat publishes in
prominent type o list of the subscribers under
the caption, "The Roll OF Honor A meeting
was held at the Merchants Exchange on the
18th, at which additional subscriptions to the
st. Louis Grain Association we're taken up.
and speeches were delivered which illustrate
the prevalent feeling OF those engaged in the
movement. It was declared that they want to
export grain to Europe, and that Iowa, Mime
sofa, Southern Illinois and Wisconsin were
tired of being swindled by Chicago speculators,
railroad combinations, New York middle-men,
&c. They were begging to trade with st. Louis,
and wherever they sell they will buy. 1t was
urged, therefore, that more capital be put into
the business. Mr.. Stannard said that grain
can be landed in Liverpool seventeen cents
cheaper via st. Louis and New Orleans than
through New York to-day it costs fifteen and
sixteen cents on the Erie Canal alone, and it is
loss than that from st. Louis to New Orleans.
At the meeting at New Orleans. on the 17th, of
the Chamber of Commerce, "the special COM
mittee reported il favor Of organizing grain
association. with a C3Dital Of S20O OOO tho
directors and officers to be elected as soon as
$50 600 is subscribed" Ten thousand dollars,
we are told, was subscribed on the spot towards
carrying out this project. It is evident that
the movement is an earnest one all along the
Mississippi. st. Louis already has grain ele-
vators on both sides of the river, and il the
present project is carried out, the railroa Is
coming into st. Louis will be run 40 close to
the river that oars can be unloaded at once
upon steamboats, and barges.

How Eggs Hatch.

PEOPLE have an idea that the hen sits
on the egg for a certain time, and that
when the time comes for Matching the
chick bursts forth. There never was =
greater mistake. The chick, until liber-.
ated from the shell "by outside aid" is as
incapable of motion as if formed solid
with the egg, which it nearly does. You
might as well enclose man in an iron
boiler, and tell him to get out without
tools, as expect chick to get out of
the shell without help. The chick
grows and ,swells in the inside of the
shell, until at last the excrescence
on the point of the beak of the bird
presses against the inside of the shell, and
bursts up small scale; of course when
it does this, it at the time breaks" in that
spot " the inside skin of the egg. This
admits the air; in short time it breathes
and gets strength to cry loudly. The hen
then sets to work to liberated it; she brings
it forward under the feathers of the CROP
and supporting it between the breastbone
and the nest begins the work of setting
her progeny free. She bitches the point
of her beak into the hole formed by the
| raising of the scale by the chicks ,beak,
and breaks away the egg skin or she'll all
round the greatest diameter of the egg.
The joint efforts OF the hen without and
the chick within then liberate the prisoner
and he struggles into existence, and gets
dryunder the feathers, and with the natural
| heat of the hen. .giG; ql a.-s
All female birds, which set on, their
eggs to hatch them have the hook in the
beak strongly developed. Even the broad
billed duck and the goose have these hooks
specially developed, and with them they
liberate their young. In Australia, where
everything seems to be by contraries, it is
the cock of the brush turkey that matches
the eggs and not the. hen. 1t would be
interesting to know whether the hook Of
the beak is better adapted for this service
in the male of that bird than in the female;
| the hook on the beak of the ordinary
cock of the common fowl is quite differ
emit from that of the hen-it is adapted for
wounding in fight, but not for the Matching
of eggs.-EIrch07,qe. ..e sg II -r..@.

= Insects HHrtful to the REESE.

D.. = 81
ROSE culturists are frequently isappoint-
ed in the result of their labors, by seeing
the foliage and flowers of their favorite
plants eaten by insects which appear to
battle all attempts to destroy them. One
of the most destructive insects, the rose.
slug, is the larva of a saw fly. (SeI0ndria
rosa, which so closely resembles the slug
worm saw-f1y as not to be easily distin-
guished from it. These saw-fits come out Ct
the ground at various times between the
goth of May and the middle of June, and i'm
mediately lay their eggs by thrusting their
saws obliquely into the skin of the leaf,
and depositing an egg in each incision. "
When the young slugs are produced
from the eggs, they eat the upper surface
OF the leaf in irregular patches, leaving
the vein and the skin skeletonized., They
cast their skins several times, and finally
drop to the ground, and burrow into the
soil the depth Of an inch or more,
forming little oval cells, cemented with a
little gummy silk. Having performed
their transformation and become flies,
they emerge from the ground early
in August and lay their eggs
for a second brood. These enter the
ground late in the fall, and remain in their
cells until the ensuing spring or summer.

A Curiosity.

THE Augusta (Me.) Journal has the fol-
lowing Twenty years ago, or in the
Spring of 1S49, the superintendent Of the
burial ground in Acknowledged. John
Beeman, who is still one of the business
men of that city-purchased a number of
silver poplar trees, averaging about two
inches in diameter at the ground, and five
feet in height, and transplanted them in
the cemetery. They tiourished finely, and
have become large trees, adding very
much to the beauty Of the cemetery. A
few days ago one Of these trees was cut
down by direction of the present super
intendent, Colonel w. s. Haines, for the
reason that it's branches were broken off
by the great ice-storm of last winter, and
the tree ruined. The fallen tree measured
II inches in diameter at the stump, and
was about 40 feet in length
Embedded in the centre of the trunk
was found the original tree, of the same
size as when transplanted 90 years ago,
but minus the bark. All the growth of
the tree had been outside OF, and ap-
parently detached from the original The
core or original tree was loose, and fell
from its sepulchre when the trunk was
being split, though it was as full of life as
when transplanted. Upon the original
tree, which is about five feet long, and
two inches in diameter at the largest end,
were ten knots, showing that number of
limbs to have been sawed off when the
sappling was set out. The marks of the
saw are distinct as if made yesterday.
This curious freak of nature may be seen
at the store of Capt Beeman, in Hal
lowell. 1t is a genuine curiosity, and
worthy of place in the States cabinet.
We doubt if a similar specimen can be
produced.

AnecdOte Of Henry j. Raymond.

Mr.. RAYMOND was personally exceed
mgly popular with all the employees of the
Times. His well-known sense Of equity
and justice made him the person to whom
all, high and low, appeal whenever they
felt aggrieved. Employees of the press
room, the composing room, the proof room,
the stereotyping room, equally with the
editors and reporters, came to him for
justice whenever they felt aggrieved by
the action of the individual under whose
especial supervision they were. What
ever his decision was in the matter, for or
against the applicant, was received as final,
and universally accepted as just. In no
one was the spirit of fair play so striking
ly manifest.
He was sent before the day of the tele-
graph to Boston to report speech of Dan
lei Webster, then in the height of his pop
ularity. Rival city journals also dis
patched their reporters, each selecting for
the purpose two of their best short hand
writers, to work against Mr.. Raymond.
The speech was delivered, and proved to
be one of Mr.. Webster's greatest achieve
ments. The several New York reporters
took the night boat to return to New York,
and all, save Mr.. Raymond, gave them
selves up to such enjoyment during the
evening as the boat afforded. Mr.. Ray
mond sat quietly in the back cabin, and
was observed to be writing furiously,
Presently one of the reporters had his
suspicious aroused, and setting out on an
exploring expedition, found that Mr.. Ray.
mond had on board a small printing Office
fully equipped. His manuscript was
taken page by page by the compositors,
set up Immediately, and on the arrival of
the boat in New York, at o'clock in the
morning, Mr. Raymond's report, making
several columns. of the Times, was all in
type. These columns were put into the
forms at once, and the readers of that
journal were at 6 that morning served
with full report of Daniel Webster's
speech delivered in Boston on the pre-
vious evening. This, at that time, was
one of the greatest journalistic feats on
record, and so completely astonished and
astounded the 1FS6une's rivals that they
never published the reports furnished by
their shorthand writer's, but acknowl-
edged themselves fairly beaten.
Another instance when he captured q
locomotive which had been chartered by a
rival, and by its aid succeeded not only in
beating" that rival, but all others, was
an anecdote he was fond of relating.

General Debility Is Natures Appeal for
g. HolD.

Thousands of persons, without any specific all
ment, are the victims of languor and lassitude
The unthinking are apt to confound this species
of merton, with laziness; whereas it usually
arises from want of organic energy, for which
the subjects of it are no more responsible than
the near-sighted are for their defective vision.
Such persons, although they may be free from
pain. are as truly invalds, and as much in need OF
medical, aid, as If they were tormented with the
pangs of acute disease They require TONIC and
Alternative, that will rouse and regulate their
torpid organizations. In cases of this kind HOS
LETTERS STOMACH BITTERS produce an i'm
mediate and most favorable effect. The debili-
tated and responding vaetudinarian, who feels
as if he were but half alive; who shuns company,
and has no relish either fer business or pleasure,
is Daetonaorptosed By brief course of this most po
tent vegetable tnUigorant, into quite different being
The change effected by the BITTERS, in his bod
lily and mental condition, is surprise to himself
and to his friends. He mopes no longer; the ac-
tive principle of life, which seemed to have died
out of him, is re-awakened, and he feels like a
new man. Remembering that debility is not only
an affection itself, but nvittton to disease no
time should be lost in recruiting the broken-down
system with this choicest and most potent of all
