A SMART NEeRo.-C Charles Sumner, says
the Mobile Register; never uttered more con-
else, poignant and epigramatic speech than the
brief one attributed to colored man in late
negro convention in Washington. 1t has al
ready been published among our telegraphic
dispatches, but will bear repetition. He said,
"That he went further than Mr.. Sumner in his
claim for equal rights to the negro; he would
not rest until the negro could safely uote the Dem
ocratic ticket.
This speaker knew what he was talking about,
and that free suffrage to the black man meant
freedom to vote for the Radicals but abuse,
persecution, blows, and sometimes killing, il
he ventured to vote for the other side: And yet
the negro thinks he is FREE VOTER. The
slave of his Radical masters, he does not dare
even to vote for his own color, although in the
South he has the absolute and unquestioned
power not only.to nominate but to elect whoev-
er he pleases. They can have, if they choose,
fifty black members in Congress, with COM
bined pay of quarter of million of dollars,
and all the honors and dignities of Congress
sional life thrown in. But their carpet-bag
masters tell them they shant do it, and, like
"human chattels," they obey their master.

GREEN ENvELopEs.-T Treasury Depart
ment annually uses many thousands of envel-
opes of peculiar greenish tint, which are
rarely seen outside of Government Offices. No
one, on examining them, would suspect of what
they are manufactured. They are strong,
smoothe and business-like in appearance, and
have the letter "T..' stamped through the fibre.
Old greenbacks form the material of which
they are made. The Treasury Department
saves up all the bits and remnants of paper
used in the manufactured our currency with
old stamps and bills, and all the mutilated
greenbacks which have come back to it, and
instead of destroying this mass of rubbish, as
was formerly done, the Department turns it over
to the paper-makers, who return it in the shape
of serviiceable envelopes. Many dollars are
annually saved to the Government by this
means. These envelopes are used extensively
in the Custom House, the Postoffice, Sub
Treasury, and other Government Offices.

sThe, cotton for seed should be picked when

The cotton for seed should be picked when
dry, and put up when dry. This will always
insure healthy plant Ifthe seed is partially
damaged, the plant twill continue to die out for
weeks after it comes up, and sometimes fail
even to make its appearance after sprouting.
I would select cotton for seed every year:
Select enough every year to plant to make seed
to plant the: entire crop the succeeding year,
Rust is simply poverty of the land. Ihls
poverty is produced from various causes, such
as wet lands that leach, lands that are too p!o-
rous to hold water, that receive too much rain
at one time and get too dry at another, and
letting it get grassy so as to rob the plant OF
what little nourishment that is there The
hilly, sandy land can be improved by mixing
with them vegetable mold, and using suttl-
cient quantity of "Dicksons Compound" with
surface culture. The wet lands have to be
drained to increase their fertility. Red land
and post oak land that are sufficiently dry need
nothing but enriching; and the true system for
everybody is, to make the land as near virgin
soil as possible. have never known in this
section new lands to rust. The black prairie
lands I am unacquainted with, but understand
they are liable to rust but believe the same
system of keeping them full of vegetable mold
up to the virgin standard, and the use of the
Compound" manure, would succeed in making
cotton in them. The sulphuric acid that is in
plaster might to some extent supply the place
of carbonic acid that is deficient by long culti-
vation.t The above is true in my practice AS
to the black prairie land, it is mere sugges-
ton, but I believe it will succeed.
The heavier the cotton bolls, the more care
is necessary, by previous preparation and ma
nuring, to sustain the plant. The same care
should be taken.not to cut the roots of the cot
ton plant with the hoe, as is used to prevent
their being cut by the plough, as the same
damage would be the result in either case
Care should also be taken not to skin or bruise
the shanks of the cotton with the hoe. The
hoe should never be raised more than eighteen
inches from the ground to hoe cotton. The
hoe should be kept sharp, and grass should be
cut just below the crown. Scratch out the word
chop, and use the word hoe or scrape. This
natures cotton earlier, and renders it less like
ly to be damaged by boil worms and caterpil-
lars. BY planting your cotton thick, and cul-
tivating shallow, you dwarf it by the large
number of bolls set on the plants, and render
the plant less liable to caterpillars and boil
worms,

"A young lady met in company young
gentleman who evidently had an excellent
opinion of himself. During conversation he
introduced the subject Of matrimony, and ex-
patiated at length upon the kind of wife he
expected to marry; that is, if ever he should
take the decisive STEP, The honored lady must
be wealthy, beautiful, accomplished, an1iable,
&C., &c. His listener quietly waited until he
ended, and then completely confounded him
by asking in the coolest possible manner: "And
pray, sir, what have you to offer in return for
all this ?" The young man stammered, redden-
ed little, and walked away.

Neuralgia.

The certain cure of neuralgia is found in
iudicious eating and exercise; and not only so,
O permanent cure cannot be effected IN any
other way, while these are always efficient.
In neuralgia the blood is always too thick,
impure and in excess and as diet and exercise
combine to remedy these conditions, some rules
in relation to them are desirable. These will
be adapted to sedentary persons, to those, who
live indoor generally, as women, students,
book-keepers and the like.
It is rather better to eat thrice day, morn
ing, noon and night; that is, as soon after sun
rise as practicable, for breakfast; dinner about
o'clock; supper before sundown.
Eat nothing whatever between meals.
Breakfast, a single cup Of coffee or tea; some
cold bread and butter, with dish OF berries or
stewed fruit in summer time, and nothing else;
in winter, meat, fish, or poultry, or, in their
stead, couple of soft-boiled eggs
Supper should be made of cold bread and
butter, and cup of warm drink of some kind,
and nothing else.
Dinner the same as breakfast, adding one
vegetable and some fruit, raw or stewed, as
desert, and nothing else. A different kind of
vegetable may be taken every day for variety; /;
the kind of meat may be changed at each
meal.
The object in the specification above made is
to discourage variety at meals, because it is
this which tempts all to eat too much. Persons
at times have felt at the table that they had
eaten enough; but on seeing very inviting
dish unexpectedly brought in, good meal has
been eaten of this last variety. The general
and hurtful error is that too great variety is
spread on our tables, not only occasioning
trouble of preparation and great loss, but also
positive injury in the temptation of the ap-
petite. The reader may try it upon himself
on any two days.. A dinner of one vegetable,
one kind of meat and bread at dinner the
next day, let great variety be presented; he
will eat double the amount at this repast, with
this remarkable difference; an hour after the
first meal, he will be entirely comfortable, will
feel as if he had eaten quite enough; an hour
after the latter, there will be decided discomfort
fullness, a feeling as if some kind of relief
was desirable, and in too many cases resort to
the decanter, with a vain hope of a riddancein
some way. 1t cannot be denied that the first
step toward intemperate habits have been taken
in using liquors to remove the unpleasant con-
sequences of over-eating. A very great aid to-
ward overcoming habit of too hearty eating
will be found in sitting down to table with
only three varieties of food.-Dr. Hall.

Sad Ending Of a Romance.

To-day, lust as the sun is at meridian, just as
with solemn sound of the great bell of the old
ST. Louis Cathedral tolls forth the hour of noon,
soldier will pay the penalty of crime for
which military justice knows but one expiation.
The United States barracks below the city, has
been the place selected where the execution is
to take place. and the green sward of the pa
rade ground will ere many hours be stained
with the crimson life-blood of the unfortunate
man. .-s,.e,
He was q member of one of the companies
of United States troops stationed near village
of one of the interior parishes of Louisiana.
Near the camp of the company was the planta-
tion of wealthy gentleman who had sympa-
thized with the Union cause during the war,
and who, therefore, was the object of special
attention on the part of the officers of the COM
mand then performing provost duty. The
planter had large family, among whom was
daughter who possessed in a remarkable degree
that rare type of beauty for which the women
of the South are noted. She had imbibed the
sentiment of her father, and therefore, took
great pleasure in entertaining the officers who
frequently visited the house.
The First Lieutenant of the company, Am
brose Black, at once conceived warm attach
ment for the beautiful young creole, and en-
deavored in every way to induce her to share
his feelings. Strange to say; however, the Ia
dy treated him in peculiarly polite but for
NAL aI>manner, that proved her heart was ice
toward him. This was a great shock to his
vanity, and he was at loss to understand it.
Finally the explanation came, when one of his
companions, playfully rallying him upon his i'll
success, stated that he had discovered why the
lady refused to smile upon him. He had acci-
dentally witnessed.an interview between her
self and private Alfred Blake, the soldier who
had been detailed to guard the house-an in
terview which proved conclusively that the
heart of the young creole was lrrevocablg the
private's and not the officers.
This intelligence was too much for Lieuten-
ant Black. His pride was wounded in its most
vital point. He had been forestalled where his
heart was most enlisted; and by one of his own
subordinates. Seeking private Blake at once,
he poured out the vials of his wrath upon him,
taunting him with his position, and declared he
would send him where he should have no more
opportunities of dallying with shameless girl
while on duty. Alfred Blake had borne much,
but this coarse allusion to the woman he loved
better than life fired heart and brain, and with
one blow hestruck his officer PROSTATE upon the
ground in the presence of his company.
Then followed the trial-which was rendered
inexpressibly touching by the presence of the
woman who had dared to love private SOL
dier-the sentence of death to be preceded by
imprisonment at Ship Island.
To-day the sentence is to be enforced, and
the majesty of the law sustained-New Orleans
Picdu,kne.

SOUND ADVICE TO PLANTERs.-We copy
some remarks from the Memphis avalanche:
The prospects are that the price of cotton
will range between fifteen and eighteen cents
next fall and winter, at the highest, in which
case all who shall have failed to raise enough
of the necessaries of life will be in as deplora-
BILE condition as was the planting community
in the fall and winter of 1878, when they sold
cotton as low as thirteen cents per pound to pay
for corn at one dollar and twenty-five cents to
one dollar and fifty cents per bushel, and pork
at thirty four to thirty-six dollars per barrel.
The experience of those few months which
ruined both the mercantile and agricultural
interests of the South, and contributed to the
wealth of the West, should besuficient to point
out to planters their line of policy for the fu-
ture. Yet we fear it is not sufficient. The
country is wild on the subject of cotton planting,
will show serious drawbacks on the present
prosperity of the cotton region.
1t should not be forgotten that the country is
steadily receding from the initiation and high
prices caused by the war, and that cotton must
share the same fate with wheat which, for
nearly year, has been at ante-war prices.
This is inevitable 1t is our mission to recall
the events of the past, as lessons. to guide our
readers in the future. If cotton brings only
fifteen cents next fall, twill be ruin to those
who are buying corn and pork now, and will
also have to buy them then. In order to avert
such a state of affairs, the policy of the agri-
cultural interest is to plant an abundance of
corn this season. 1t will prove to be the best
kind of economy. With their cribs full of corn,
and fat swine in their pens next fall, planters
will be in position, to some extent, to dictate
prices for cotton, otherwise, they will be at the
mercy of cotton gamblers and brought to the
verge of ruin.
