THE AGRICULTURAL SPIRIT.

We noticed last week the active
business, in this place, in the sale of
fertilizers. We have not ascertain
ed the amount already sold for the
county but it is very large and far
in excess of any previous year. In
addition to this the farmers will use
this year a larger amount than here
tofore of home. made fertilizers, all
of which speaks volumes for the ag-
ricultural spirit Of our tillers OF the
soil.
We do not doubt that this year
the farmers, at the worst, will repay
themselves for the outlay incurred.
Persistent effort in this direction will
certainly if not this year, in very
short time, double the production of
the land tiled. When we perfect
that system which cultivates only 50
much land as can be titled and fer
tilted reH, the farmer will have lit
tie fear Of a prosperous out look to
fortune.

THE DESTRUCTION OF TIMBER

The N. Y. Tribune says "The
celebrity and universally of forest
extinction has long been theme of
regret and remsnstrance. Civilized
countries, with few exceptions, may
be divided into two classes J..
Those which have already annihila-
ted their forests, and thus converted
their streams and rivers into raging
foods in winter and spring, and
dry channels in summer and autumn.
2. Those which are fast travelling
the same road to ruin. OF the lat
ter class, ours is a conspicuous ex-
ample"
The war has given to Southern
Agriculture and Southern industry
generally, new departure. Our
labor system now does not require
us to continually clear up and wear
out our lands. On the contrary that
systcm now is teaching us that our
lands are our most reliable and val
liable property, and great many OF
us have learned that we have al
ready more than enough cleared
more than we can for long time re-
store or make richer than nature
ever formed them. AS our agricul-
turc improves the impression will
become general, and the farmer
while making "two blades of grass
to grow where but one grew before"
will also appreciate the inestimable
value of his forests Population will
increase and the tendency to clear
up the forests may be revived. But
the process will not be without re
gard to the value of our timber
We will have learned that an acre in
forest favorably situated will pay in
% years as good interest upon CAPT
tai invested as an acre annually cul-
tiyated and our trees will be treasur-
ed for this reason mainly and not
because as the Tribune says their de-
struction will lead to climatic changes
ruinous to all prosperity. That is
far-fetchcd. The oldest grain coun-
tries of the world have had their
seasons little changed since the first
tree was felled-the Nile, the Tiber,
the Danube, still flow through fruit
full regions, and on our vast western
plains, destitute for miles of trees,
seasons and soils are alike proPi-
tious to immense production. In
preserving our forests we need only
consult the beautiful and the useful
to please the eye and hold for the
highest money value, and as the ar
gument touchc3 two of the strongest
motives Of our nature, our forests,
we have no doubt, will be in the
main taken care Of ~-

A GOOD NoTICE.-The Memphis
Avalanche welcomes the Chattanoo-
ga Herald in this wise;
That cheerful political pyrotech-
mic, Standard, has turned up again.
A few months ago he was in Allan
ia publishing the True Georgian
1t started as Grant paper, but in
its last gasps advocated Hoffman for
President. The gods loved it and it
died young-very young. Then
we thought that the star of Standard
had sunk to rise no more. But it
was merely travelling in its orbit, to
return in due time, like Encke's
comet.-The other day Standard
swooped down on Chattanooga, lit
on pile of types, and at once began
the daily Herald, devoted to Grant
and the "eternal per-rinciples Of the
Republican party" We have al
ways felt kindly towards Chattanoo-
ga. 1t is a fine point to emigrate
from. The mountains up there are
first class, and guest at one OF the
hotels can chew longer on a given
quantity of beef-steak than at any
other hotels in the country. There
are thirty dentists within pistol shot
of each hotel, all doing a splendid
business. What has the town done
that it should be compelled to en-
dure the baneful upas of Standard 7
We ask this with tears in our eyes.

Joseph Harris wisely tells his
brother farmers of the South "we
must raise larger crops" The cot.
ton growing States are, perhaps, the
only farming part of civilization
where money can be made on indif-
ferent crops. In England the say
ing is that poor crops are ruin--fair
crops for the landlord and in big
crops alone can the tenant reap
profits. To fence, plow and cult
waite four acres in order to bring a
bale of cotton which can be produced
on one, is wasteful policy which the
Southern planter will realize more
forcibly from year to year.

SELLING JEWELS TO PAY THE
FRENCH WAR DEBT.-The subscrip-
ton for the deli>erance of the ma
tional territory is progressing with
extraordinary rapidity in France
All sorts of ways of making money
are proposed by the journals which
advocate the patriotic movement
A correspondent of the Moniteur
Universal suggests an ingenious plan.
She proposes to add to voluntary
gifts of jewels the earrings of the
whole female population of France.
'Let us put a stop" says she, ''to
this savage fashion, let blood be shed
for our country, but let not wounds
be inflicted in order to place a jewel
therein. Let all be given, from, the
enamelled gold button of the york
woman to the clusters of rubies, of
pearls, of brilliants. Seeing wo-
man without earrings will then elicit
the respectful remark, That is a
! woman Of France !"
