FERTILE SOUTH.

The South is. as the New York
Times states, known to-day to be
almost Incidentally fertile 10 the es
sental elements of material progress
Its agriculture may fairly be said to
have but sora, c bed the surface of its
soil; It's manufactures are hardly
moro forward than those of the sea-
board Northern States at the OPEN
ing Of tie century; its wealth of
coal and meiels is practically i'm
measurable; its commerce has hardly
burst its bwaddIing clothes; the newly
awakened energy aud ambition of its
people are constantly directed, and
for many years vii! be directed, to
almost uuimagined fields"

OYSTER SHELLS.

A new use has been discovered
for oyster shells. For years they
have been used for the manufacture
of lime as manure, for decorative
purposes, and in the preparation Of
a cheap imitation of marble but it
is now found that they cannot be bet
ter utilized than by being thrown
in quantities into the sea, where they
make the best possible foundation
for new oysters beds. 10 July and
August next many ship loads of
these empty shells will be sunk by
English and French oyster farmers
in various places suitable for the
purpose, and few healthy living
oysters will then be dropped upon
the same spots Experiments have
proved that under such conditions
the bivalves will shortly multiply to
an almost incredible extent; aud in
80 brief period "a two years each
empty she'll will have from thirty to
forty young oysters attached to it
The new generation can then be re,
moved to make room for more, and
fattened for market in specially con,
structed tauks.

a CUTE YANKEE.

BarnweIl People: Not long ago a
thoroughbred Yankee map peddler,
on a bright Sunday morning, APP
preached a colored country church in
this county where large audience
had gathered to worship. A happy
inspiration came over him and laying
aside his heavy pack be seated him
self by the wayside and began to cry
most profuaeIy> A self constituted
committee approached him and asked
the cluse of his trouble Between
sobs he ,old his sad story-that he
was the last survivor of the Union
army 10 the South who had not
reached home. That he was trying
to make his weary way back to New
England to his aged mother and
affectionate young wife and the
peaceful sabbath morning reminded
him SO forcibly of his youthful days
that his soldier heart was melted.
"Ah," said he, "if could only sell
these maps would soon be at home
Immediately purchasers crowded
around him; there was a boom in
the map market, his stock was soon
disposed of and the peddler, with a
brighter face, thanked bis friends
gave them his blessing and tramped
off to Augusta for uew stock.
Collections at that church were IN
usually small that Sunday.

of land surrounded By high mud
walls The greater part Of the farm

the farm 100 birds of more than a

which they commence to lay. Twelve
of the adults are now laying end three

THE GREAT REMEDY
FOR ALL
DISEASES OF THE BLADDER
AND KIDNEYS.

This Remedy has stood the test OF time, ha9
been weighed in the scales OF public opinion,
and to-day has an army OF msn, women and
children, who over their own signatures bear
testimony to its curative properties. Some
have been cured OF Diabetes some OF Brights
Disease, some of Inflammation of the Bladder,
some of Catarrh OF the Bladder, some OF Incon-
Thence of the Urine, some OF Leucorrh@a, or
Whites, some of pains in the Back and Loins,
some OF diseases of the Prostate Gland.
For alS Diseases arising
from "a diseased state of the
Bladder and Kidneys, this
Remedy stands with0!It a
Rival.
Without rival in the number of cures
effected without a rival in the purity OF its
composition: without a rival in number OF
bottles sold. The annual sale OF Smiths Ex-
tract of May Flower exceeds the sales Of all
other Kidney Remedies combined.
DR.. ELI IVES, says: THAT in many aggra-
waited cases, when Buchu had failed to produce
any benefit May Flower has effected d speedy
cure
DIR. J. II. BIRD, says: 81 have found May
Flower to be remedy for all Kidney COM
plants, far superior TO Buchu or Juniper"
DR. II. F. MARTIN, says: May Flower acts
more promptly in ali diseases of the Bladder
and Kidneys than any remedy which has come
under my notice"
DR.. BENZ. H. LONG says: az have found
May Flower exceedingly beneficial in my treat
ment of females
DR.. VINO. D. HUYVETTER, says; without
doubt May Flower is destined to work a revo-
luton in the treatment OF diseases peculiar to
the urinary organs"
DR. KING. in compiling his dispensatory,
has paid merited tribute to this remedy. See
page 1896 Kings Dispensatory.
Anumber OF authorities might be quoted, but
there are none more eminent than the names
above. In addition to these authorities, a liv-
ing host of 20 600, whose certificates are on file
in the office OF the proprietors of this remedy,
bear testimony to its virtues.

The accusation against General Butler
that he is back in dues in settlement as
treasurer of the Soldiers Home, according
to our Washington dispatches, don't seem
likely to hold water. When at length,
some one, after the crowd had abused Ben
to their hearts content over stealing
spoons" went to look up the transaction
in the war department at Washington, he
found that Benjamin the silent held gov
eminent receipts for all this kind of prop
erty, which, with the African,he had made
contraband of war, and thus treated. Now
it is said the $4,000 of the Home got
mixed up in the bookkeeping of the Home
officers and the eastern department, and is
all safe and sound, while if Ben is owing
anything the books in the treasury depart
ment will show the transaction. What
would this poor world do if there were not
some men in it whom they could stone
with impunity and not be afaid of having
stones thrown back.
