THE Register has erected a pyramid
of some of the States in which elections
have been held the present year, and
in the center of the Republican cone
New York and Tennessee are placed.
AS New York went Democratic by
about fifteen thousand majority. and
no election has been held this year
in Tennessee, the builder sacrifices
strength to beauty in his architectural
design. South Carolina is also placed
in the second tier Of the structure,
although there has been no election
held in the State in 1875. So that in
reality the pyramid is one of the frail-
est structures that could possibly be
erected, not excepting the new Custom
house at Chicago. which. though built
under the auspices of the Administra-
ton, was pronounced unsafe by a
Committee appointed by the Govern
ment, down to its bottom stone.

TIE cotton crop is not uniform in our
county. As the season progresses there
is much doubt expressed if it will reach
an average one. The weed is sufficiently
large, but deficient in bolls Ground
comparatively new, and aud land which
vas IN CORE last year is doing much
better than where cotton has followed
cotton. Land upon which cotton was
planted last year shows cotton weed
enough but Is greatly deficient in bols.
This is an evil which is more or less
felt every year by the planter, and expe~
rience should teach as to remedy it.
His losses from the practice of follow>
ing cotton with cotton are increasing
each year, as the capacity in his land de-
creases owing to this yearly demand up
on it for the same elements to produce
the same crop. The remedy is in a ju-
dicious rotation of crops. Different
plants feed upon different elements of
fertility in a soil, and also vary much in
the amount of vegetable matter deposited
upon the land in which they are cultivat>
ed. Cotton after corn, in which peas
have been sown, does we'll because of
the amount of vegetable matter left upon
the ground by the pea>vines and roots.
This is equally true Of other crops. This
deposit not only acts benefcially IN overs
coming the closeness which is always
seen in soils which have been someti1ae
run in cotton, but deposits especially
from the pea-yine and clover, large
amounts Of ammonia in the top>soiL
Draw upon the soil for years for exe
actIy The same elements by the same
crops, and you must exhaust those ele>
ments in that soil Cease to feed the
soil by manure or rotation of crops with
the elements Of fertility extracted yearly
By any particular crop and exhaustion o f
that particular clement of fertility mus
inevitably cnsue Partial exhaustion of
the particular food required by the cot
ton plant to grow 1t to perfection, is
shown in the Indifferent yield of the cots
NoAA HAN"H NV tANS~A-1 CA VA 4'-14-9
which were last year, and many preyi~
Gus ones cultivated in cotton. Rust and
other diseases Of cotton we think are at
tributlble to this cause. Judicious rota-
ton requires that as much fertility
should be restored TO the soil by by at
least two crops in five, as is extracted by
The other three exhausting crops. A few
/ years perseverance in such rotation,
will soon put heart into ouI half-ex~
hausted soils, and almost double the
products Of the farmers land.

We note the arrival from Ohio, of
about hundred young hogs to be fats
tened upon the abundant pea crop every~
where seen on the farms in the county.
This is but one degree better than buys
ing bacon. How much better ould it
have been if all these hogs had been
raised ii the county by some thrifty far
mer, instead of transferring the cost Of
the same beyond the liuits of our State,
when currency is so very scarce for the
daily wants Of the people Of Tennessee.
Why is money so scarce with Us? As
long as we buy every article abroad from
an axe helve to bacon side, our country
win be bare of money. We hear much
of legislating money abundant this is
nothing but miserable twaddle the only
way to make it so, and keep it So is to
make more to sell than we have to buy,
and then, and not till then, viii we have
money sufficient in amount to answer
the demands of our section.

18th year Of his age.
We are passing away as the swift

that harbor which awaits US all in the

was brought to theis Office by little Miss
Atmore Mitchell, aged we suppose, about
four years. The child and the peach
were both beautiful, and we thought
such productions was incontroverGble
evidence that Hardeman county could
not be surpassed. We prevailed upon
our youthful visitor to retain the lus-
cious fruit, believing she would enjoy it
more than we would.
Although we have budded and grated
much fruit, we always advocate planting
