The Planting Prospect.

There seems to be every indication
that tho planters of the South are
preparing for large cotton crop du-
ring the prescut season. 1t is said
that the orders~for fertilizers, sent TO
Charleston can scarcely be filled, and
that during the past three weeks,
some seventy Or eighty carloads. or
somo six hundred tons of phosphates
and guanos. have been shipped for the
interior of the country. The suicidal
policy of cultivating the great staple
at the expense of neglecting the pro-
duction of necessary supplies, has of:
ton been urged, and is now being
urged by the leading journals of the
South. It's natural, necessary and di-
rect effect is to depress the price of
cotton, at the same time that it en-
hances the price of provisions-to
make cotton cheap and corn dear.
|. A writer in the Sumter Watchman
thinks, too, that the season will be an
unpropitious one, and will involve
such risks that the planter should act
with even more his than usual pru-
dence. He says:
"Many persons will think it i'm
possible to calculate upon the general
condition of the weather several
months in advance; but they will be
mistaken, for it is to great extent
only calculation of atmospheric
forces, founded upon past experience.
The summer Of 1872 will probably be
q cool one, by reason Of the vast oc-
cumulation of ice at the North, and
prevalence of northerly winds, and
particularly by the intensely electrical
state of the atmosphere, as will be
soon openly showed by frequent and
violent thunder storms and tornadoes
The early frost that VIC will probably
have next fall will probably result
from tho same electric condition of
the atmosphere; for electricity causes
cold. Tho late frost of 1871 (23d Of
November) was caused by the great
deficiency of<clectricity in the atmos-
phere during the five proceeding
months. This deficiency was shown
by the fact that not ono single clap OF
thunder was heard in this section
from the end of June until the middle
of November; and alSb by the great
prevalence Of epidemic fevers over the
entire South. Last year the winds
prevailed from the ocean and were de-
void Of electricity; this year they
prevail from the north and interior of
the continent, and arc fully charged
with electricity" .....
Besides, the accumulation of snow
and ice at the North, will likely
cause, during the summer, heavy
floods and inundations. ....
The dictate Of true wisdom is first
to raise provisions enough, and then
to bend all of our remaining energies
and surplus means, to the cultivation
of cotton. Above all let US beware Of
debt; at the last it "biteth like q
serpent and stingeth like an adder"

The South as a Home to the Immigrant.

The great severity Of the winter at
the North, and the incalculable suff-
ering which it has imposed upon man
as we'll as beast, has directed attention
especially to the incalculablc superb
ority, in tho single particular Of eli
mate, which the South enjoys over
other sections. Terrible frosts and
binding SHOWS have inflicted death,
and spread desolation around many
hearthstoncs at the North, whilst
here at tho South there has been
scarcely any suffering to young or old
Ito man or beast. At almost all sea-
sons we can do some outdoor work,
and the cattle require only slight
protection, and partial sustcnance in,
the most inclement days of winter
AS the fruits of mild climate and
fertile soil, we have in generous pro-
fusion, all tho varied products, agri-
cultural and horticultural, of the tenn
perate zone. We have besides, rail-
roads, post offic IS, schools, churches,
and, moreover, resources as we'll OF
tho field and the forest and the mine,
which might evoke and sustain the
busy industry of the world. We have
millions of acres Of productive land,
which might bo bought at q cost of
from So to IS per. acre, and be made
to yield a yearly crop of 500. With
such advantages the South offers
welcome to any bona 6de settler who
comes, and extends cordial invitation
to all. With such claims, she cannot
much longer be forced to extend a
fruitless call. In spite of the misrcp-
resentation and pecuniary backing
of Western agencies, in their efforts to
direct the tide ofpopulation elsewhere,
the truth will at last be known, and
the advantages of this inviting fold
be appreciated. a-..., -...

Old Things Have Passed Away.
