LET HIM BE IMPEACHED.-One
day last week one OF the cOlored
members of the House OF Reperesen-
tatives charged the Chief Justice OF
the State with having stolen a rail
road, crossties and all. The public
in this State are too we | acquainted
with the story ofChief Justice Luz
deling's connection with the North
Louisiana and Texas Railroad ring
to treat this charge with indiffer-
ence. The fact that the Supreme
Court of the United States, has also
declared that Ludeling, in his rela-
tions to this road. is swindler,
strengthens the charge of Murrell
against the Chief Justice, and We
think the House should inquire into
the propriety of empeaching Ludel'
ing on the authority of the Supreme
Court of the United States, if not
upon the observation OF Murrell.-

of Maine, who has suddenly grown
so hot over the horrors Anderson

nine years ago, and Hill, of Georgia,
who flames at the name of Elmira,
we're both non -combatants in the
civil war. Neither OF them ever
came within hailing dittance of the

either side to death or capture. The

& How Can Farming be Made Remu-
nerative 7"

Every farmer would like to kno"
this, and yet nearly every one OF
them processes that he does know
Just exactly how it can be done -
Each has his theory, or it may he
his hobby, the following or riding
of which, engrosses so much OF his
time that he fails to see any good ID
his neighbours system, and 1t re-
auires many years of bitter expert
ence to convince him that he is not
infalible.
Gentlemen who have prospered
| and made money by farming tell us
that a man must be his own over
seer, or as the poet has it:
| "He that By the pillow would thrive,
| Himself must either hold or drive"
There is sense in this as we'll as
in the Turkish proverb that "there
| is no fertilizer like the landlords
footsteps" yet, some of the hardest
working, most industrious farmers
of our acquaintance, have failed to
make buckle and tongue meet since
the war. A man may have the en-
ergy of steam engine and yet be
barely able to earn the grease that
keeps him running.
Passing over the hobbies of many
D others, we propose to straddle our
Il own for little while. We do not
s believe that either hired or share
6 labor will ever pay the land owner a
q profit. The man who has family
J. of boys educated to be farmers
practically, as well as theoretically
. has a fortune in his reach in thei
. labor. The small farmer who own
:. and. controls his labor, the worl'
- over, is the prosperous man of hi
J. profession. A man may just as rea
~ sonably expect to practice law Q
70 medicine successfully by proxy
Agriculture is quite as jealous
mistress as either of these.
n. We believe that the quantity
It land usually attempted to be cult
en- waited, is far too great. Half til
1t, quantity enriched with the cost
be cultivating the other half, will a
be ways produce more, with less labo
he and steadily increase the fertili'

of Let the farmer steadily perseve
in making his own supplies, or
other words, in making his far
;na self.supporting, and only raise ct
"a ton as a surplus crop, and we THU
he will come as near being mast
- of the situation, and as near to ma

done from the days of Cain, the fiji
