Corn and Cotton Planting in the South.

The St. Louis Democrat, which is especially
painstaking in collecting information tor its
commercial columns, has been searching its
Southern exchanges, and feels prepared to state
that not only are planting operations in the
South quite as forward as could be expected
but greatly increased area devoted to cotton
Accounts from Tennessee, Alabama, Georgia,
Arkansas and Texas, all agree in the statement
that the acreage of cotton will be fully up to
that of last year, while the acreage of corn,
wheat and oats will be increased from fifty to
seventy-fve per cent. Especially will there be
an increase in corn planting. The price, of
corn has been so high during the past season
that Southern people have been compelled to
part with all the money they could get from
their cotton crop in the purchase Of corn and
meat. Unless the "Venusan equinox" of June
inflicts an extended frost upon the country,
there will be harvested in 1875 the largest corn
crop on EARTH Already corn is we'll up in
Texas and Southern Arkansas. Emigration to
both of these localities has been large during
the last Winter and Fall, and the emigrants
are mainly agriculturalists, and will either
work farms of their own or hire to other plant
ers and farmers Beyond a doubt the South
the Southwest, and in fact, the entire country
will experience better times from this year for
ward until the next great panic occurs; for
which untoward event the prudent will always
be upon the watch. Manufacturing Industries
are resuming full operations; furnaces are 60,
ing into Rast work is resuming in mines, and
the country begins to exhibit in every depart
ment of activity a renewal of its wonted LIE
and vivacity.

The Scarcity Of Beef.

The Macon Telegraph sounds note of warn
ing on the beef question. We are told tor ex-
ample that, having eaten our surplus stock, we
have fairly exhausted Tennessee. 1t the people
of Georgia do not pay more oattentlon TO inc
raising of grass and less to the killing OF 1T;
and if they neglect the rearing OF live stock
while depending uponsether States for supply
the timeis not distantMhen only the rich can at
ford to buy beef or mutton daily. In England,
two years ago, oysters were abundant and com,
paratively cheap. They are now sold at $50
Der busheI. and only eaten by millionaires. 1t
was thought the beds were inexhaustible, but
time has proved the reverse. They were
dredged to death Just as the Chesapeake Bay
beds would be, if the State of Maryland did
not. by stringent laws and the employment OF
a costly "navy," prevent such catastrophe.
It is high time our Georgia farmers devoted
portion of their lands to grasses and fraction
of their capitol to raising beeves and sheep.
If Can't. C. w. Howard is to be credited, there
is no place on earth better adapted for dlversl-
fled industry and self support than Georgia.
And vet there are few countries so utterly de-
pendent upon other commonwealths Tor food.
The opening of the Airline Railway demon
stratcd the capacity of the State for raising
chickens. The drain upon that section OF
country. however has been so prodigious that
we doubt if the prices of this Winter for fowls
and eggs will be ever seen again. When many
farmers come to Augusta to purchase chickens,
ducks. turkeys, etc., instead of bringing them
here for SALE it is sad commentary upon the
thriftlessness of portion of our agricultural
community. The only way for the South to
grow rich again is to live, as much as possible.

BEAUTIFUL TWIN BRIDES IN THE WEST
We had the pleasure to see the newly made twin
brides at the Gibson House last night, and
must confess that more perfect eXemPllhca-
ton of the French story of GiroHe- -Girota
could hardly exist. They were at supper With
their husbands last night when we saw them,
and nice little tea party the four made. The
bridegrooms are brothers, but not twins. 1t is
not often in lifetime that one is permitted to
see two brothers married to twin sisters Ihe
husbands are easily distinguished the one from
the other. The elder one wears full whiskers,
while the younger has simply mustache.
The trouble to be apprehended is in the same
ness of the wives, and a very pretty sameness 1t
is. TO use homely but trite phrase, they are
as like as two peas. To describe the one
would be to describe both. They are of me-
dunn size, perfect brunettes dress exactly alike,
and seem to be about twenty years old. Beau
ty has richly endowed these fair brides and
placed its dimpled seal in the cheeks OF each.
How, in the order of human passion, it came
to pass that either of the husbands could fall
in love with his wife without falling in love at
the same time with her sister passes our un-
derstanding 1t has been suggested that each
of the Morgan brothers fell in love with both
the Stuart sisters, and, to settle the matter, put
their sweethearts in bag, shook em up, and
drew cuts for the one that came out first. We
suppose they know, but we don't see how Ell
ther of them knows to which one of the twins
he is married. They came in to supper, and
by iudicious assortment were seated each at
the right hand of her husband. When they
went out of the dining room one couple was
allowed to get some distance in advance before
the other started, to prevent confusion.-Ctn-

BOTH SIDES.

man in his carriage was riding along,
a gayly- dressed wife by his side;
In satin and laces she looked like the queen,
And he like king in his prime.
A wood-sawyer stood on the street as they
passed.;
The carriage and couple he eyed,
And said, as he worked with his saw on log,
ST wish I was rich and could ride"
The man in the carriage remarked to his wife,
'sOne thing would give if could;
I'd give my wealth for the strength and the
health
OF the man who is saving the wood"
A pretty young maid, with bundle of work,
Whose face as the morning was fair,
Went tripping along with smile of delight,
While humming a love-brsathing air.
She looked on the carriage the lady she saw,
Arrayed in apparel so fine;
And said in whisper, II wish from my heart
Those satins and laces were mine"
The lady looked out on the maid with her
work,
So fair in her calico dress,
And said, "I'd relinquish position and wealth
Her beauty and youth to possess"
Thus it is in this world, whatever our joy,
Our minds and our time we employ
In longing and signing for what we have not,
Ungrateful for what we enjoy.

A MOVE IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION.-We
understand that many of the farmers of An
derson County have combined to make their
own manures this year by purchasing the chem
icals necessary and manipulating them them
selves. In this way they save more than half
the cost of the Fertilizers they use, and have
more reliable article Why cannot the same
thing be done in Union County? Surely we
have the same facilities and equally as intelli-
gent and enterprising farmers as Anderson.
1t seems to us that every time al effort is
made in this County to make an innovation
upon q custom which has been in vogue for
any time, short or long, some one jumps up
and presents what he imagines to be many in
surmountable objects and opposition to its
successful results No one is willing to get
out of the old beaten path and consequently
we hear nothing but grumbling at the years
results of the farm work. No one will risk a
dollar of money or expend a day of time to
make improvements upon old customs or ways.
There are hundreds of men in this County who
would rather make half crop every year du-
ring their lives, in the old familiar way, than
put themselves to the least trouble or expense
to treble their crops or permanently reduce the
cost of production hereafter.
Men would rather give liens on their crops
for Fertilizers at $50 per ton than put them
selves to the trouble of making equally as good
manures at $50 And the worst feature in all
this matter is the fact that many have become
so accustomed to giving liens on their crops
that they begin to think they cannot carry on
their farming operations without it, and that
it is actually necessary for them to turn over
onc-haf or the whole of their crop to the mcr
chant at the end of the year, in order to feel
sure of having bread and meat the next year.

A "REsPECTABLE' THIEF.-The Savannah
Advertiscr contains an account OF an express
robbery committed by young man OF such IN
Aueutial connections that the Aduertlscr does
not dare to give his name. 1t seems that since
about the 1st of last February firm on the
Bav have had sums of money repeatedly taken
from express packages that they have forward
I'd TO their correspondents. A young man, who
was in their employ, had at various times been
seen with more money than a clerk drawing
forty dollars per month should have. lie had
been playne cards, and had lost sums of over
a hundred dollars. The other day he appeared
before Justice as bondsman for n friend, and
the Judge being unwilling to take his bond, de-
manded security, and he offered check on the
Savannah Bank and Trust Company for $3.50,
showing at the same time the pass-book with
that amount to his credit. On presenting the
check the next day the teller at the bank said
that the signature was not that of the party
who owned the pass-book. The young man on
being told what the teller had said, acknowl-
edged that the pass-book belonged to his father.
The father was then spoke to about the matter,
and he said that the money was there in his
name, although it was his sons, and that his
son had said it was a present from his en-
ployer for him to take trip North in the sum-
mer. This was known to be false, and the
Young man finally acknowledged that he had
been accustomed to put the scaling wax on the
packages after they were given to him sealed up,
and when the occasion offered he would open
them, take out some of the money, and then
reseai them and put on the wax This he has
been doing for three months, until his deficit
has reached $1,9OO His employer refuses to
prosecute, but the matter is already in the
hands Of the law and the young man in jail.

4 Hundred Years Ago.

When it is considered how many and great
have been the changes in this country during
the past hundred years. the propriety of grand
centennial celebration of the existence OF our
Republic can not be disputed. The Baltimore
american, in a few paragraphs, reviews some OF
the leading features which mark our national
advancement, and also the general progress OF
civilization in the century past:
GOne hundred and ten years ago there was
not single white man in what is now Ken
lucky, Ohio, Indiana, or Illinois. Then, what
Is now the most fourishing part of the United
States, was as little known as the country in the
heart of Africa itself 1t was not till 1776 that
Boone left his home in North Carolina to be-
come the first settler in Kentucky. And the
first pioneers of Ohio did not settle till twenty
years later still. A hundred years ago Canada
belonged to France, and Washington was a
was loyal part of the British Empire, and
scarcely speck on the political horizon indi-
Gated the struggle that in few years was to
lay the foundation Of the greatest Republic Of
the world.
"a hundred years ago there were but four
small papers in America steam engines had
not been imagined, and locomotives, and steam
boats, and railroads, and telegraphs, and postal
cards, and friction matches, percussion caps,
and breach-loading guns, and stoves, and fur
naces, and gas for dwellings, and Ipdia-rubber
shoes, and Spauldings glue, and sewing ma
chimes, and anthracite coal, and photographs,
and chrome printing, and kerosene OIL and the
safety lamp, and the compound blow-pipe, and
sree schools, and spring mattresses, and wood
engravings, and Brussels carpets, and lever
watches, and greenbacks, and cotton and woolen
factories, in anything like the present meaning
of these terms, were utterly unknown.
"a hundred years ago the spinning wheel
was in almost every family, and clothing was
spun and woven and made up in the household !;
and the printing press was cumbrous machine
worked by hand; and nail, or brick, or a
knife, or pair of scissors, or shears, or razor
or O. woven pair of stockings, or an axe, or
hoe, or shovel, or a lock, or a key, or glass of
any size was not made in what is now the
United States. Even in 1890 there were only
seventy-five post-offices in the country, and the
whole extent of our post-ofice routes was less
than nineteen hundred miles. Cheap postage
was unheard OF, and had any one suggested the
transmission of messages with lightning speed,
he would have been regarded utterly insane
"The microscope on one hand, and the tele-
scope on the other, were in their infancy as
instruments of science, and geology and chem
istry were almost unknown. In word, it is
true that to the century past have been allotted
more improvements, in their bearing upon the
comfort and happiness Of mankind, than to
any other which has elapsed since the creation
Of the world"

NOTHING BUT LEAVES.

Nothing but leaves the spirit grieves
Over wasted life;
Sin committed while conscience slept,
Promises made but never kept,
Hatred, battle and strife;
Nothing but leaves!
Nothing but leaves; no garnered sheaves
Of life's fair ripening grain;
Words, idle words, fer earnest deeds;
- We SOW our seeds-lo! tares and weeds;
We reap with toll and pain
Nothing but leaves.
Nothing but leaves memory weaves
No veil to screen the past;
AS we retrace our weary way,
Counting each lost and misspent day,
We sadly fno at last
Nothing but leaves
And shall we meet the Master so,
Bearing our withered leaves?
The Saviour looks for perfect fruit
We stand before him humble, mute,
Waiting the word he breathes-
'sNothing but leaves"

MEMORIAL DAY.
BY FATHER RYAN.

Gather the sacred dust
OF the warriors tried and true;
Who bore the flag of our nations trust,
And fell in the cause, though Lost, still just,
And died for me and you.
Gather them, each and all,
From the private to the chief,
Come they from hovel or .princeiy nal, =,
They fell for us. and for them should 1al
The tears of a Nations grief.
Gather the corpses strewn
Ger many battle-plaln;
From MANY grave that lies so lone,
without name and without stone,
Gather the Southern slain.
We care not whence they came,
Bear is their Gfeless clay
Whether unknown or known to fame,
Their cause and country still the same
They died-and wore the Gray.
Wherever the brave have died,
They should not rest apart;
Ewing, they struggled side by sides,
why Should the hand of Death divide
A single heart from hearth
Gather their scattered clay,
Wherever it may rest;
y
Inst as they fell on the battle day,
Bury them breast to breast.
The foeman need not dread
This gathering of the brave;., ,-
Without sword or flag, and with soundless
tread,
We muster once more our deathless dead,
Out of each lonely grave.
The foeman need not frown,
They are powerless now;, H..
We gather them here and we lay them
- down,
And tears and prayers are the only crown,
We bring to wreathe each brow.
And the dead must meet the dead,
While the living Ger them weep,
And the men whom Lee and StoneWaii led,
And the hearts that once together bled,
Together still shall sleep!
