SANDY SPRINGS ACADEMY.

We attended the closing exercises of the
Sandy Springs Academy on Friday last,
taught by the energetic and efficient Mr.. D.
"A. Zeagler, of 0rangeburg, who came into
our midst but short time ago, and we
wen astounded at the wonderful success
that had attended well-directed effort in
teaching the young idea how to shoot"
Especially is this noticeable in their spell
ing. The entire school is divided into two
classes known as spelling bees, in which
there are collected probably one hundred of
the commoner words, (they being mis-
spelled, and some of them difficult to spell.
Probably not more than five words were
misspelied by the first class, and but few
more by the second or younger class. This
plan consists of having these words collec-
ted and written down in q book. The
teacher gives the word to the head OF the
class, and if misspelled passes it on until
some one who is on the alert discovers that
the first word given was spelled wrong,
50hough there may have been six more
spelled correctly between the Parties.) He
spells the word and goes "head" The
Teacher never corrects until he has passed
through the entire lesson. Should there be
word which had escaped all, he then calls
attention, and gives it out again. The plan
not only teaches them the art Of spelling,
hut requires their undivided attention ever
30 reach the head of the class.
- We have secured the services of Mr. Zeag-
sler for anothe term, and feel confident he
will meet with deserved success.

of corn on one acre of bottom land on
Pee Dee River in Marlboro County, sc.
R. b. Hardaway of Thomas County,
Georgia, raised one hundred and nine
teen bushels of corn on one acre of land,
and DIR. Bower, of the same County,
raised eighty-four bushels of upland rice
on one acre. Rough rice usually COM
mands in market about so per bushel,
which would make the yield Of this acre
worth about $126, and rather a more
paying business than raising cotton.
The Rev. H. G. DuBose, a missionary
located at Soochow, in China, has sent to
Hon. d. w. Aiken a package of "No
Me-" or "Glutenous Rice," which he
thinks might be successfully grown in
our climate. In its growth it resembles
our rice, and is prepared for the table in
the same way, except that when cooked
it is more of a jelly or soup, and will not
cook dry. Tt is regarded as valuable
food for the sick and for children. 1t is
worth in China about three cents per
pound, and Mr.. DuBose very kindly
offers to send by mail package of seed
to any person in this country wishing to
try the experiment of growing it. Many
kinds of grain and vegetables from Chi
ma have been introduced into this coun-
try and successfully propagated, and this
grain may add to the blessings already
derived from the industry and experience
of China farmers. Our Commissioner of
Agriculture might confer lasting bene-
fit upon our people by procuring the seed
of this rice and distributing it to our
farmers in quantities suitable for expert
menting, including directions for plant
ing and cultivating.
The Rural World publishes a new
mode of budding fruit trees, which may
favorably interest some of our fruit
growers. We do not pretend to indorse
the method, not having tried it, but see
no reason why it may not succeed well
with skillful operator. We advise our
brethren to keep the plan in mind, and
next August when those peach seed you
planted this fall natures for budding, be,
sure to give it fair trial. This is the
method:
"Place your knife half an inch above
the bud, and then scalp off slice an
inch or more in length through the bark
and wood; Including the bud of course;)
then scalp off just such a place on the
stock, tie the bud on with rag one
fourth inch wide, just as you would tie
up cut finger, and your work is done.
Leave the bud out of the bandage. This
was called the new English method
ticed by intelligent gardeners throughout
the world. You can bud two by this
plan in the same time it takes you to bud
one by the old and clumsy way, and then
if your bud does not take, very little
damage is done to your stock. The
wound will heal in twenty days, and the
buds are more certain to take, for this
plan brings the outer bark to outer bark,
inner bark to inner bark, and wood to
wood"

Whereas, the cotton buyers and specu-
lators of this day are organized and
bound together as never before, aiming
only to promote their own interests, and
are not satisfied with their exorbitant
charges for handling cotton, but threaten
to buy only its net weight, thus imposing
upon the producers the loss of bagging
and ties, thereby inAicting upon the cot
ton growers of this country an annual
loss Of millions of dollars; and,
Whereas, we know that, under the ad-
verse circumstances which now surround
the planters, it is question whether
they can afford 10 raise cotton at the
present prices; we believe it is high time
for the Patrons of Husbandry to speak
out, and devise some plan to defeat the
buyers and spectators in their imposing
designs, and therefore recommend that
all the Oranges throughout the country
adopt the following resolution:
Resokoed, That Patrons utterly refuse
to bale and sell cotton exclusive of the
bagging and ties, and request their Rep
resentatives in Legislative and Con-
gressional Halls to discountenance and
oppose anything that is likely to initiate
against or be detrimental to the farming
interests of our country.

A Very Good Rl,son,

The reason why only one ample bottle OF
MERRELL's HEpArINE for tlA Liver will be
sold to the same person, foH ten cents, by
our Druggists, Simpson, Req e. Co., is be-
cause of the enormous expesse of import
ing the Hepatine into this cdntry; but as
there are fifty doses in the lara size bottles,
it seems two cents per dose is S,eap enough
after all for medicine that CUES dyspepsia
and liver complaint. All wfb have not
had a sample bottle are entitlel to one for
ten cts. at Simpson, Reid g. &Eo.'s Drug
store. Three doses relieves anytase of dys-
pepsia, constipation, indigestial or liver
Complaint, in the world. Regul,r size bot
