pertinent in raising wheat on guanoed
land. He sowed bushel Of the finest
seed wheat to be found, and put hun
dred bushels of cotton seed and two
hundred pounds of guano on the acre
of ground, expecting to reap not less
than fifty or sixty bushels. In the
Spring it grew off finely, and was to all
appearances the best wheat ever grown
in the community, headed out long
heads, the neighbors all spoke for seed,
but when it was thrcshed it was found
to he without grain, and only one BUSH
ell and peck were realized. Mr.. Lomax
don't believe in guanos. He says he
wouldn't distribute it Oh the fields for it.
In putting guano on a field of cotton,
he omitted the guano on few rows at
various places in the field to test the
advantages, and he thinks it produced
better where there was no guano.

A REPORTER SNUBBED. - A corrc-
spondent OF the Nea0 York Herald at
tempted to interview Mr.. Jefferson
Davis q short time since, with regard to
the Louisiana troubles, but failed to get
q response. In this Mr.. Davis shows
his discretion, and lie would have saved
himself much modification, and the
Southern people much obloquy, if he
had been as dlscrectly silent Oh all pre-
vious occasions. Mr.. Davis is every
where regarded as a representative man,
and his somewhat hasty utterances have
again and again been misrepresented, to
the injury of his section. We are glad
to see that at last he initiates the wise
reticcnce of Lee, and furnishes nothing
which his enemies may distort to prove
the existence yet at the South of the old
rebel spirit. "Even were to read from
the dccalogue," he said, "any expression
of mine would be sure of misrepresenta-
ton and distortion by enemies of the
people, and this is reason
enough for my refusing to converse upon
political affairs"
