A BackwOOd's Adventure.

a Virginia banker, who was the
chairman of q noted infidel club, was
once travelling through Kentucky,
having with him bank bills to the
amount of $4,000. When he came
to a lonely forest, where robbers and
murderers were said to frequent he
was soon lost, through taking the
wrong road. The darkness of the
night came quickly over him, and how
to escape from the threatned danger,
knew not. In his alarm he suddenly
Cspied in the distance a aim hight, and
urging his horse onward, he at length
came to a Wretched looking cabin.
He knocked the door was opened by
a woman who said that her husband
was out hunting, but would return,
and she was sure he would cheerfully
give him shelter for the night. The
gentleman put up his horse and enter
ed the cabin, but with the feeling that
can better be imagined than described.
Here he was with large sum of
money, and perhaps in the house of
the robbers whose name was a terror
10 the country.
In short time the man of the house
returned. He had on deerskin cap,
and seemed much fatigued, and in no
talking mood. All this BODIED the in
fidel no good. He felt for his pistols
i'll his pockets, and placed them so as
to be ready for instant use. The man
asked the stranger to retire to bed. but
he declined, saying he would sit up
bv tie fire all night. The man urged,
but the more lie urged the more the
infidel was alarmed. He felt assured
that this was his last night on earth,
but he determined to sell his life as
dearly as he could. His infidel prin-
cip;es gave him no comfort. His fear
grew into a perfect agony. What
as.to be done?
At length the backWoodsman arose
and reaching to the wooden shelf took
down an old book and said:
"Well, stranger, if you wont go to
bed, will, but it is always my Gus
tom to read a chapter Of the Holy
Scripture before retiring. |
What change did these words
produce? Alarm was at once remOv-
cd from this skeptic's mind. Though
avowing himself an infidel, he now
had more confidence in the Bible. He
felt safe. He felt that q man who
kept an old Bible in his house, and
read il, and bent his knees in prayer,
was no robber or murderer. He lis
tened TO the simple prayer of the good
man, and at once dismissed his fears
and laid down in that cabin and slept
as camly as he did under his fathers
roof. From that night he ceased to
revile the good old Bible. He became
a sincere Christian, and often related
the story of his eventful journey TO
Prove the folly of infidelity.

PLANTATION LABOR.
The Chinese Satisfactory 30 all Par
ties.


From the New Orleans Times.
The experiment of the Chinese on the
MillaudOn plantation has proved, in
spite of many obstacles, satisfactory to
all parties. An old planter who visited
the place day before yesterday reports
that they were doing work which ne
gro labOrers could not be got to do, to-
wit: getting wood out of q swamp,
where they had to wade and work all
day above their ankles in water. They
were cheerful, active, and Jealous to a
degree which made our old planter
sigh for few such on his own pIanta-
ton. With such iabOrers, or a fair
proportion of them, we could see re-
vive our sugar production, and in these
lOwlands raise all the sugar and rice
that would be needed for consumption
in the United States. The need of this
new labor is especially impressed upon
our planters by the general neglect of
the negroes of their industrial employ
ments, in order to devote themselves
to patriotic and political duties. The
approaching election is a most impOr-
tant epoch with them. They have got
public meetings, stump OratOry, torch
light professions, flags, drums, mass
conventions, and all the nonsense of
political campaigns on the brain, and
are quite Indifferent to the sugar and
cotton crops. The majOrities of their
ticket and candidates are of far more
interest to them than the yield of the
plantations on which they ale en-
plOyed. This present election will in
vOlve waste production amounting
to millions of value. The demagOgues
who go about the country stirring up
the "too susceptible hands" to q turn
ing convenient to grocery or grOg-
shop, where henzine whisky is retailed
at five cents a gill, are the Alarics and
Attilas of our State, who carry desOla-
! ton in their march.
1t is great folly to hope or pray for
the extinction of these demagOgues, or
to seek to convince our cOlOred breth-
rem that they are getting beyond their
depth, and will pursue their political
aspirations to their own ruin and de-
structiOn. That is a foregOne conclu-
sion. It will only be a little worse
with them than with large class OF
white people who give themselves up
to politics, and forever afterward be-
on and taxing the honest labor of
others.
Our planters must, therefore, to save
themselves and the country from de-
cline of production, look to some other
labor than that of our colOred politi-
clans and sufffagans. China is the on
ly quarter of the globe to which we can
resort to supply this desideratum. 1t
is encouraging to know that many of
our large planters have already entered
into contracts to procure these IabOrers.
If half of the contracts already made
| are executed, there will be a large in
crease of the number of Chinese in our
State by next January.

Sow Wheat.

The Southern Farm and Home for
October gives the following timely
advice:
Towards the middle or end of this
month is the best time to SOW the ear
ly varieties Of wheat. We hope that
the readers of the Farm and Home
have all resolved to raise a sufficient
crop of this excellent cereal to supply
their own wants at least, if they can
not conveniently do more. In those
portions of Georgia which are suited
for wheat, we are satisfied that in q
series of years wheat raising would
be found to be more profitable than
cotton. The agreeable return for one
year might not sustain this opinion,
but when the amount oflabOr and ex-
pense necessary to raise wheat is COM
pared with that required for the cul-
ture of cotton, and when the benefit
to the land, the time saved to collect
and make manure and generally i'm
prove the soil, are all taken into the
! account, we doubt not that our belief
is correct. -5
We do not mean, by raising wheat,
sowing three pecks OF a bushel of any
sort of seed upon a rough, unbroken
| and grassy field, and then scratching
it III with a scooter plOw. But we
mean preparing the land thoroughly
by deep, close, even blowing, so that
it be perfectly pulverised and deeply
| broken; we mean liberal manuring
with cotton seed or richly ammonia
ted super-phosphates; we mean SOW
| ing in drills about half busheI per
acre of the best and cleanest seed that
! can be found and we mean covering
il carefully and then rolling with a
we'll adjusted horse roller.
We have found the white Tappan-
annock wheat to be the better than
any other variety we have seen.
As preventive against smut, the
/ seed should be soaked in blUestonR
water or strong brine for twelve
hours, and then rolled in lime or plas-
ter. The old advise, to " sow wheat
in dust that is, when the ground is
thoroughly dry-may be followed
with the best advantage.
BARLEY AND RYE.
Those who have hitherto neglected
to sow a barley or n rye patch should
not loose another moment. There is
nothing about a farm which "cOmeS
ain handler" or pays better than these
patches. It is entirely useless to at
tempt to raise barley either for pasture
or seed on poor ground. If you are
! liberal in manure, prepare yOul
/ ground we'll, SOW n couple of bushels
of seed per acre, 5Rd cover nicely,
you will rarely fail to have an excel
lent winter pasture, which will prove
most timely and efficient auxiliary
TO the corn crib and the fodder stack.
