OUR DEFRAUDED TEACHERS

1t having been decided that NO
money can be had from the state
treasurer on the school appropri-
alton for. this county for last year;
and also, that no part of the appro-
priation for this year can be applied
to the payment Of claims Of last
year, the question arises, when are
our teachers to get the money due
them for July, August, September
and October, 1872. To answer
this satisfactorily to them is imposi-
BILE. We don't believe they will
ever get it, and we trust they will
learn lesson which ought to have
long ago been learned by all per-
sons brought into relations with
the state, viz Refuse to work a
day after your salary is in arrears.
In fact no one ought to give credit
to the state after the experience of
the past year, and looking at the
prospect of this.
The county treasurer has receiv-
ed one-half the amount due the
county for schools for the year
1878. This will not even pay teach
ers up to April 1, 1873. However,
as all the schools in this county are
now closed we are not as bad off as
last year, for we are not running up
a debt with the poor teachers.
We suggest to the school commits
sioner that he call upon all hav-
ing claims as teachers to file them
with him at once. Let US see just
what is due teachers, and let US
cease to defraud them of their mon
ey, by inducing them to work when
their is no prospect of paying'them.
We also would suggest to him the
calling of convention Of the school
teachers of the county, for consulta-
tion and combination. They might
be able to do something toward OBJ
tanning justice to themselves and
the schools.

Interesting Experiments.

At the last annu al meeting of
the Georgia State agricultural scci-
ETY., held in Augusta in February,
DR.. H. R. Cook, of Beach Island,
S. c., read paper containing the
results of his experiments to ascer-
tain the "True value of commerce
al Fertilizers" He laid of plot
of ground into ten rows, los feet
long and exactly three feet apart.
In each of nine rows he placed an
equal amount of fertilizers, meas
urcd by cost price and one row he
left without anything. He noted
each stage of development, counted
the stalks, the bolls, the height Of
plant, and the amount produced.
The production of cotton to the
row varied from 7 lbs. II ozs. to 3
lbs. II ozs. In almost every case
the fertilized row sdoubled the pro-
duction of that on which nothing
had been added to the soil. Sup
posing an acre had been planted
and tended in the same way, that
treated with the best fertilizer
would have produced 1,O76 lbs. of
cotton, while that left unassisted,
but cultivated with the same care,
would have yield only 525 lbs. DR..
Cook concludes his very interesting
essay by recommending the use of
cotton seed, mixed before planting,
with some of the highly-phosphated
manures.

four hundred Indians came to fight US,
which we did beat him; took him and
eight of his men prisoners; and, as the
Indians, which say it, told us, killed five
or six whites. We have a particular ac..
count from our Indians of'one hundred
and sixty-eight Indian men killed and
taken in. the fight; but the Apalatchia
Indians say they lost two hundred, which
we have reason to believe to be the
least. Capt. John Bellinger, lighting
bravely at the head ofour men,was killed
at my foot. Capt. Fox died Of a wound
given him atthe first storming Of the fort.
Two days after, / sent to the cassique of
the Ibitachka, who, with one hundred
and thirty men, was in his strong and
well made fort, to come and make his
peace with me, the which he did, and
compounded f1r it with his church s
plate, and ten .Iorses laden with provis-
ions. After this, 1 marched through
five towns, which had all strong forts,
and defences against small arms. They
all submitted and surrendered their forts
to me without condition. | have now
with me all the whole people Of three
towns, and the greatest part four more.
We have totally destroyed all the people
of four towns: so that we have left the
Apalatchia but that one town which
compounded with one pert Of St. Lewis;
and the people of one town which ran
away altogether: their town, church and
fort we burnt. n m 4 \ \
The waiting for these people makes my
marches slow; for / am willing to bring
away with me, free as many of the lndi-
ans as | can. This will make my
mems part Of the plunder (which other
wise might have been 100 ]. to mani
but small. But 1 hope with your hon
our s assistance to find way to gratifie
them for their loss of blood. | never see
or hear of stouter or braver thing done,
than the stormiHg of the fort. 1t hath
regained the reputation we seemed to
have lost under the conduct Of Robert
Macken, the Indians Low having a
mighty value for the whites n n n n \
In short, we have made Carolina as
safe as the conquest of Apalatchia can
make it.
If had not so many men wounded In
our first attempt, l had assaulted st.
Lewis fort, in which is about % or 80
men, and 20 of these came from Pensaco.

The number of free Apalatchia Indians
that are now under my protection, and

sPAUN KILLER.n

There can be 10 necessity at this late
day, foe the press to speak in ccmmen-
datory terms Of this remarkable medi-
cine, IL order TO promote its sale for it
is a medicine that is known and appreci-
ated the wide world through. When
ever we speak of the Pain Killer, as in
the present instance, we do so in behalf
of the afflicted, rather than with the view
ofadvancing the interests Of its proprie-
tors. For various diseases, such as
rheumatism, cholera, cholera-morbus,
burns, spr aims, bruises. and so on to the
end of the catalogue, we are convinced
that there is no remedy before the peo-
pie equal to Davis Vegetable 'Pain-Kil-
ler,' and we know that thousands upon
thousands entertain the same belief.
Certainly, we cannot refer to- the history
of any medicine which equals that of the
Pain Killer. 1t was introduced in 1s40,
and from that time to this its sale, both
at home and abroad, has constantly and
rapidly increased, and we rejo,ee at the
high reputation it has achieved, because
this reputation shows that is has been
the means of relieving a vast amount Of
human suffering. We hope the present
proprietors of Davis Vegetable ''Pain
Killer" will long live to enjoy the pros
perity which they have so fairly won.

HOrOlOgy For All.

Whitman now proposes to regencrate
and disenthrall the town clock, and set it
up on the claw Range" Bay street.
He wants to put in illuminated glass
faces, so that The that runs may read, -
even at night. We would suggest bell
to sound the hour, whereby lingerers may
be warned to return home, there to pro-
pound new lie to excuse the lateness of
the hour. The committee on lamps of
the town council thereby might learn of
the fight of time, and try to get the duty
performed which was SO long ago COM
mittcd to them. The town dads might,
if they heard the pealing of bell, think
that duty called them to attend meet
ing of council. Should they meet we
would possibly, have attention paid to
our sanitary condition, they might pass a
dog ordinance; or something else might
be done for the public welfare.

Peace! Peaeei

Mr. EDITOR
Have the kindness to permit me to
make correction in my last communica-
ton, number IL: Speaking of the edu-
cational privileges lost to our youth, L
am made to say (which not the war, but
the place {! J has taken from them. For
place. read, ''peace." Perhaps that
correction needs farther explanation ::
During the war our privations were tenn
pered with the hope Of ultimate success
but, when peace was made, and we re-
turned to our former homes to find them
in the hands of others; when, for success
sive years after hostilities had ceased,
we were eyewitness Of repeated sales,
without the hope of restitution, We pro-
nounced the so-called peace, more GALA
mitous to us than the war had been.

l STRONG SOUTHERN COMPANY.

The only southern life insurance COM
pany doing business in New York is the
Piedmont and Arlington. of Virgi ia. Un-
derthe management ofCol. VIC Carrin. =
ton, it is having most successful career.
Few companies north or south can show
so good a business, relative, of last year.
The increase ofncw business in 1872 over
1871 was 4l2 policies, $l24,S24 amount
at risk, and $4,000, premiums. Its to-
tai income receipts were 81 $50, go4, and
it distributed among the widows and
children of policyhO!dcrs the large SUN Of
1885, ,O26. Since the beginning of the
new year the rush of business has been
greater than ever, the number ofpolicies
taken out in February alone being 435
and the risks on them being 100000.
All this is evidence of the high estima-
ton in which this company is held in the
south, and that Endorsement is sufficient
to satisfactorily commend it to the pat
ronagc of the people of other sections of
the Union.
