"EXCELSIOR,"

Forming the most concentrated, universal and
durable fertilizer ever offered to the farmers-
combining all the stimulating qualities Of Pc
ruvian Guano, and the ever durable fertilizing
properties Of Bones. Excelsior is in fine dry
powder, prepared expressly for drilling, and
can be applied in any quantity, however small,
per acre and it is the opinion Of many close
calculating Farmers, after 70 URTEEN years
experience in testing it side by side with other
popular fertilizers, that an application Of 100
pounds of Excelsior is equal to from 200 to
800 pounds of any other fertilizer or guano
offered for sale, therefore is fully 100 to 200
per cent. cheaper.
No.. Look out for limitations and counter.

bushels per acre, and not over $lo'
to less than 5000 in Meadow
A great error in pitching crops
reduces tie fertility of the land down to ten
bushels of wheat, twenty ofcorn, and l,50O.
pounds of hay per acre. It brings oats in
Bledsoe county down to 20 bnshels per
acre, Irish potatoes to 40 bushels, and
sweet potatoes to so bushels. The same
defective system of husbandry which re-
duces the fruitfulness of land from 20 BUSH
els of wheat to an average of 10 bushels,
win, if continued, re luce the fertility from
ten bushels to five. Finally the yield Of
corn must come down from twenty bushels
TO ten, and from ten to five bushels per
acre. Farmers and planters working by s
defective rule can never increase the pro-
ductiveness of the plantation as whole.
Hence, their old fields aie always
poorer than fresh lands. The system
is eminently unpatriotic, for 1t tears
down the common soil and fertility of the
State to build up individuals. 1t is State
divided against itself, consuming and vast
lag the raw material that forms grain, meat
and clothing, which Providence placed
within reach of the plow for the equal ben
eft of all generations in all coming time,
and proper use of clover, plaster and lime
would double all the crops reported by the
Bleosoe Farmers Club. y

OF BLEDsOE COUNTY.

PRODUCTS OF BLEDSOE COUNTY.
The Secretary ofthe farmers Club of
Bledsoe county, Tenn, sends a report to
the Department of Agriculture, from which
we CLEAN the following statistics: The far
mers of that county drove or shipped 10
Southern markets 10 1872 5000 fat hogs;
1000 cattle of an average gross weight of
$50 lbs; and 200 mules and horses of an
average vsIue of 500. During the year
ten per cent of the hogs died of cholera and
other diseases, and about 1000 were slaugh-
tered in the county.
Field crops are put down as follows:
Wheat, 10000 bushels, average yisld 10
bushels per acre; corn, 2SO, 900 bushels, aver
age per acre 20 bushels; oats, $4,000, aver
age per acre 20 bushels; Irish potatoes TO-,
900 bushels, average 40 to the acre; sweet
potatoes, 10000, average so; tons of hay,
$50, average per acre 1900 lbs. Crops
raised in is69, as shown by the census of
June, 1870, were: Wheat, 22,094 bushels;
corn, 2Ol, 667; oats, 1850; Irish potatoes
6,256; sweet potatoes, ALA; hay, $50 tons;
hogs, 11,04S.
The most remarkable features in the
above figures are the small yield per acre
Of the crops Of grain, and the small guam
tity of hay raised in the county. A farmer
who has 1,000 acres of land under fence
should raise as much clover, timothy and
herd-grass hay as is reported in the county
of Bledsoe for 1872. 1861 acres yielding
5000 lbs. per acre will give $50 tons of hay.
What such farmer ought to have is a
meadow of 200 acres yielding an average of
1900 lbs. per acre. Estimating the hay at
a dollar per 100 lbs. it viii make the grass
crop on 200 acres bring $1,000. Corn grow
ing al the rate of twenty bushels per acre
would lave to bring the farmer over tive
dollars q bushel to pay as well; fer it costs
at least twice as much 70 raise ard harvest
an acre of corn as an acre Of hay. Why

caa organ in Indiana, has few very plain
words about bribs-talzer who has been
caught. nssys:
aCharles T. Sherman, Judge OF the
Uoited States Court for the Northern Dis
trict Of Ohio, ought to be impeaehed and re-
moved from office. His appointment was
an unfit one to &c made in the first place,
and he has recently shown that he is total
" unfit TO hold the Office. For United
States Judge to take open sides in politics
IS bad enough under any circumstances,
but Sherman has done far worse than this.
He has descended from his high position to
dabole in the dirty business oflo66ying ana
has taken a $4,000 fee from the New York
Stock Exchange for helping to get certain
measure through the Senate. IL is very eyi-

rHE soorCH suRY sYsTEM.

The Jury 81 stem is receiving Sood Oeal
of attention just now in Pennsylvania and
numerous suggestions on tie subject are
being made to the convention now Ia ses-
sion in Philadelphia TO revise the constitu--
lion Of that State. The Philadelphia Ledger
prints communication on the subject in
which the writer fzvors something Like The
Scotch system. His plan is the decision OF
two-thrds-eight Of the twelye-ln CIVIL
suits; and three-fourths-or nine OF the
twelve--for conviction in criminal prosecu-
tons. In Scotland, in civil eases, by recent
statute, there must bs jury Oh twelve
persons. II, amer three hoUuS' deliberaticri,
nine or more of the jury sgree on a verdict,
such verdict is 10 be taken as That OF Tie
Jury; and if, after being locked up Zine
hours, the jury. or nine Of them, cannot
agree, the Judge is entitled 10 discharge
them, and usually does. That is, three
fouths Of the jury csn give The verdict.
IL criminal eases in Scotland fifteen per
sons are drawn by lot cut Of ''paneP OF
orty-fve. These constitute the jury, and
the verdict of a majority suffces. There
are three verdicts in Scotland: "Guilty" or
f:not guilty." as with us, and also "non
proven" which is given in cases where
there is little moral doubt Of guilt, though
he legal evidence is insufficient. Formerly,
n tie case Of a verdict of ''nOn proven"
tie accused could be tiled again, if
additional evideuH came in, but this
appears not to be the practice now. 1t has
been complained that such verdict fixes a
stigma on the accused person, but the reply
is thai it shows bow the case really stood.
In Scotland, the result Of the verdict being
given by a majority Of the jury is that no
new trials are alowed.in criminal cases. 1t
is claimed by judges, prosecuting officers,
and lawyers that the immunity from crime
enjoyed by Scotland-and it is said that
crime, especially Of great magnitude, sell
dom occurs in that couutry-is the result
Of jury system which, By allowing the
majority to deliver the verdict, abolishes all
the negation of justice caused by the dis
agreement OF jurymeD, and goes far, very
far, towards the punishment Of crime,
without trickery or delay.

WHAT HORACE GREELEY

SSI.ast September, when Colfax, Patterson,

edge OF connection with Credit Mobilier,
Horace Greeley was travelling in the West.
lie made aspeech at indianapolis, in which
he gave expression to sentiments which
sound as though they might have dropped
fresh from his editorial pen but yesterday.
He said then, as he would say now were be
alive-'I insist that the legislation of your

speech alluded to. lie told the story then
as sworn testimony has since established
Us truth:
"These gentlemen contracted with them
selves 10 pay themselves twice the fair cost
Of entirely building and equipping The road;
and. building the road with the proceeds of
tie money lent by the government, they
proceeded to divide among themselves the
other bonds, equal TO the amount for which
Congress had made a mortgage on the en-
tire road. BY these means $2O,OO0,OOO or
S30OOOOOO were divided among the parties,
aud ali that money so divided we are called
u1ion to pay. So that to-day the people OF
tbs country are paying some millions per
annum out of their hard earnings for inter-
est on these bonds lent to the Pacific road
paying this money as interest to meet
the vast sums divided By these gentlemen
among themselves as the dividends OF The
Credit Mobilier of America. Now,
tkep, stand here TO insist that the legisla-

THE St. Louis Republican, closes q re-
view of the Colfax case with this remark:
sHere, Their, we have the Vice President
of the United States, not only directly i'm
picated in the Credit Mobilier iniquity
the testimony of Ames has net been shaken
a hairs breadth-but convicted, mainly on
bis own evidence, of receiving gifts from
government contractor which even the most
charitable Judges must consider as thinly
disguised bribes." The New York E0ea-
ing Post Republican, comments on the
Colfax case in its issue of the 10Th inst. in
the following severe terms:
ave are sorry for poor Mr.. Colfax. If
he wants the innocence, be has the weak
ness of child, but of child too old or too
imbecile to learn. The pity we feel for him
is akin TO that which we feel for partial i'd
iocy. 1t is provoking, and ones hands al
most itch to inflict deserved punishment,
but there is so much of insanity in The COM
initial Of the fault that pity for him who
persists in committing it is the predominant
ing feeling. As to argument or explana-
ton, Mr.. Cclfax's case, ike Mr.. Patterson's,
is past all thai. 1t does not in the least
matter what he says. He may have new
story for every day, and new version Of
that story every hour, in vain. What he
saws Is not of the slightest moment. Tie
only feeling we can possibly have about his
case is mild curiosity as to what be may
say next
