Important to Planters.

The practice Of some planters tamper.
ing with laborers who have already en-
tered into contract with others, should be
discontinued. Il is not only. We think, a
most dshonorable practice, but one which
We are glad to know is recognized by the
Courts as making the intellopers liable to
heavy damages.
A verdict was returreI, a few days ago
by jury OF Houston county Ca. for
$1,000. ir a suit Of damages. wherein one
planter had gone upon the plantation Of
another and hired his hands. This was
after the freedmen had made the contract
to work the ensuing year for the aggrie-
we'd party. The correct principles under
lying the hiring of freedmen appears to
be this: After they have made ron-
tract TO work for certain man for 1869,
no ole else should induce them to violate
it. either by offering higher wages or any
other offer. They should be left alone,
unless they obtain a written annulment
of the agreement. But whilst no such
agreement exists every man has a clear
and undoubted right to enter into con
tract with whomsoever he pleases. and
upon whatever terms the parties to it may
agree Montgomery Mail.

A New KIND OF CoTroN.-A variety
Of cotton, called lace cotton, is being in
troduced in some parts Of Texas. aud is
likely to be extensively raised.
1t is said to be superior to any other
variety for poor soils or uplands, having
strong. healthy growth. and yielding
heavily. It's strength is equal to strain
Of seven snd half pounds to each thread,
while similar thread of the hest Ameri>
can cotton will lift only FIVE pound.
fhose who have examined it say that j!
resembles Egyptian cotton. which is worth
in England quarter more than Ameri-
can. Good results are attained from a
cultivation Of this variety of cotton. II
it is successful, it may quite generally
supercede the poorer qualities and large
ly increase the income Of the Southern

Orchard Work for the Month


From the Southern Horticulturlst.
The season is now at hand when the
fruit trees should be attended to. Go
over the peach orchard. cut out all the
dead wood, shorten 10 the last summers
growth, at least one half, and where the
branches are so elose as to iuterlock thin
them out. leaving the heads Of the trees
open to the sunlight; this adds not only
to the rich. bright color but also to the
foror Of the Fruit
Probably nothing is more beneficial
TO the health Of tree than nice clean
trunk or body; scrape off all old dry
bark and examine carefully about the
collar or portion next to the ground for
the borer. II any gum is exuding it is
ture sign that he is at work. Dig away
she soil down to the roots and with
sharp. pointed knife cut him out. This is
the surest and only reliable way Of get
ting rid Of this pest. After examining
every tree in this manner the orchard
should be we'll worked by blowing, but
as i, is difficult to pillow close to the trees
especially il they are large enough to
bear. they should be dug around with a
prongsd hoe or hoe fork, care being
taken not to injure the surface roots. A
good manure for the peach, where the
soil is not sufficiently rich. is a compost
of leaf. mold or scrapings from the wood
yard. and stable manure. dig this in to the
depth Of one or two inches. and give
ashes as a top dressing, when they can
be had either leached or unleached;
neck TO the tree scattered around for two
or three feet from the trunk would not
be too much.
The management Of the apple orchard
Is similar to that of the peach with the
exception Of shortening in the branches
on bearing trees. For the apple borer
search from the roots up to the main
branches, as it infests the whole trunk
and is frequently found at the junction Of
the main branches with the body Of the
tree. The indications Of its presence are
dead bark and the fine sawdust'ike
leavings 10 its whole. Destroy them 10
the same manner as the peach borer.
Apply as manure the same compost,
as that recommended for the peach
but for top dressing use lime as this is
probably better for the apple than ashes.
though the latter is good. Ashes for the
peach and lime for the apple; always ap-
ply these to the surface as their benef
cial properties consist in alkaline sub
stances that will be carried down TO the
roots by the rain. By a judicious ap'
plication of these materials there is no
doubt but that the productiveness and
longevity Of the orchard could be won
derfully increased.a
Many do not like to prune their trees
for fear Of diminishing the quantity of
fruit. This is mistaken idea, there
will not be as many peaches, apples and
pears, but there will certainly be as
mach and better fruit that will bring in
market higher price.
The pear orchard requires the same
treatment as the apple, that is for stand
ard. Dwarfs on the Ounce stock should
have top dressing of ashes with little
salt. say one pint of the latter to the
tree. Z. X. NJ.

EEAn occurrence demonstrating the
ineffable stupidity and complete ignor.
ance Of portion of the members Of the
Lower House took place yesterday. The
House had been adopting certain rules Of
order for its own government. the last
one being that. whenever the rules then
adopted we're silent. Barclays Digest
should be considered authority. A mo-
ton was made, of course, to print the
rules for the use of the members, when
some sRp-head. whether negro carpet
Dagger or scalawsg. we could not dis
cover, moved that one hundred and fifty
copies of Barclays Digest, be printed
for the use of the members. The debate
on the proposition continued in good ear
nest for some minutes, when one Of the
members informed the House that Bar
clay's Digest was book of some 200 or
800 pages, to print which would be a
rather large job. and that the book was
copyrighted an the State had no right to
reprint it. The mover Of the proposition,
after this explanation, relapsed into
silence. and the last seen Of him be was
hunting dictionary to find the meaning
of The word copyright. Mr.. Currell,
in discussing the question Of printing.
suggested that only sufficient copies be
printed TO supply those members who
could sign a receipt for them. in which
case the expense would have been mate
rally reduced. This proposition was
Indignantly refused.-N. o. Crescent.

John Il. surratt.

The Washington COZ respondent of
the Boston Herald gives the follow
ing:
Surratt is now in South America,
but will return in month. l learn
from one of his friends that he has
prepared a full and explicit state
mentof heconspiracy which resulted
in the death of President Lincoln.
In this he denies all knowledge of
any assassination plot, but contesses
freely that Booth and himself and
others were in plot to abduct Mr..
Lincoln. He declares that assassi-
nation was never spoken of to him,
and was not agreed on by Booth or
Payne until the night it took place.
He further insists Oh the entire in
nocence of his mother, maintains
that every effort was made to keep
the abduction plot from her knowl-
edge, and says she was simply the
victim of unfortunate circumstances
and the Vaccinations of the witness,
Weichman, whose evidence, it will
be remembered, caused Mrs. Sur
rats conviction. Surratt proposes
to tell everything he knows, the
good, bad and Indifferent, and make
oath to it. He feels. it is said, that
it will be so impartial and straight
forward that it will be believed.

Cotton.

There are many reasons why cotton
can be manufactured in the midst Of the
cotton fields more cheaply than else
where first, it is never in so GOOD con-
dition to 90 through the cards rs when
it first leaves the gin. The planter gives
ten per cent. to have hw cotton ginned
and baled-a clear loss to the country
then there is "A loss of five per cent. in the
bagging and rope, and dirty cotton, which
must be picked off before it is carried to
the willow and picked-together fifteen
per cent. loss. and yet the cotton is in a
far worse condition for the manufacturer
than when it WAS in the seed. In addi-
ton to this inevitable loss of fifteen per
cent. 10 the manufacturer who is COZ.
PEELED to use baled cotton, theF5 is an
additional loss in the broker ible, (called
waste, caused by the violent blows of
the picker (re1o1ving 1000 times in a
minute, 10 reduce it from the felted con-
dition of bale cotton to the state it was
when it frst left the gin. All the labor
of ginning and baeDg is clear loss to
the country. In addition to this the
broken fibre instead of being spun into
yarns has to be sold for trihe in the
fornn of batting or waste. If the South
ern manufacturer had no other advant-
age, this alone would yield him profit Of
over fifteen ser cent, which the ma1ufac-
turer Of baled cotton necessarily loses -

Marriages Extraordinary.

DR.. George B. PETERS, formerly of
Bolivar, Tenn, Was lately remarked
to his divorced wife-divorced on &C.
count of the terrible Van Dorm affair
in 1868, which so startled the whole
country, though occurring in the
midst of our big wars loudeSt alarms.
The doctor has thus been married
four times, but has had only three
wives. 1t is mentioned, in the same
connection, that Miss Peters, his
daughter, has, to the infinite gratiti.
cation of her friends, abandoned her
intention of " taking the black veil q
in the Catholic convent to which she
retired soon after the war.
Hugh Martin, Esq, formerly of
Memphis. was also lately remarked
to his divorced wife-divorced dur
ing the var, at the instance of the
lady, who was a Miss Sue Pillow, of
Maury County. Tenn; and who,
soon after the divorce, married her
first love- lived happily with him
until his death, which occurred some
year or two since, and now quietly
returns to her second love-" by re-
marrying her first husband !
The case of DR.. James Mcintosh,
of Knoxville, East Tenn, is almost
precisely similar IN it's outlines,
though far more remarkable, than
that of Mr.. Hugh Martin. DR.. Nc

husband and first love-" redeemed,
and disenthraled from that arch
enemy of domestic peace" the wine
cup returned, and second time
claimed, and won her for his own, in
the holy and, in these degenerate
times, thrice honorable estate of
matrimony ! One Of the strahgest
things about DR.. McIntosh'S case,
was, that the divorce was not de-
manded by either himself or his wife,
but was amicably brought about by
their mutual friend; and, still
stranger, was the fact, that when
some months later, she was asked in
MAJ riage by her former suitor, the
Doctor was in good faith consulted
about the matter as her best friend,
and freely gave his consent, saying,
that if anybody in the world was
worthy of her (Which he doubted) it
was his friend M, to whom she
was accordingly married
All these marriages extraordina-
ry" occurred in "hlgh life" in Ten
nessee-all the parties being creme
de la creme of the most respectable
society in either of three grand divi.
sions of that State.
Verify, "truth IS strange-stranger
than fiction" And there are things
constantly happening all around us
in everyday life, which no romance
writer, no dlamatist (save an over
shadowing genius like Shakespeare }
would dare to make use of, for fear
of being accused of overdrawing his
pictures of life and human nature.
