HTTTij ''SEiEBBaaaajBMlfflfejMEj POLICY OF SOUTHERN PLANTERS Iu many portions of the South, agricul tural inter'--1 have prospered in spite of the deb dive -v.te:iis ujm.ii which thev have b eii conducted, ns we ll as the entire ab MMt -f any system, as ii the case in num erous iut:mct-s. The over production of cotton, to the al most entire neglect of cereal crops, and ; consequently the animal products depen- dent thereon, arc have hlBg felt convinced. ' has constituted the principal oh-tacics to . the success if many of our planters. It j may he worked ut on paper that it is het- 1 tT to plant cotton, and huy bread, pork. iiiules and horse with its products; hut it is a notorious fact, that our planter.- who act on a different principle, and pursue exactly the oppoeita course, Lave hecome the wealthiest, most independi nt and coinfor- . table c I of the community. The truth ' is, the wealth of the country is to-dav in ! the hands of just sueh men, and we invite any one who doubts it to look around among hil neighbors, and he finds a practical nt tc station of its truth. It is tlie two and !..... 1 . ,1 I tl ..... r.u.... ..ea.. in en- tire country ; lend money annually to the producers of ten bag, and come in as the CliU I li.-tl litntees l tile e.-tate of t lie latt r wlien they die. J DM i- not onlv true, but it is the legitimate result of sound princi- pies judiciously applied. 1 , j it Could the planter have a iruaruntce of i K"' v ten cents annuallv for his cotton, and that j fiiwii, mi ii. ai the price of Hour would keep at six dollars per barrel, corn at forty cents per bushel, and pork at four cents, and that all these necessaries shall continue to be supplied at his own door, the figure work of the theo rist might be regarded as a safe rule for his guidance. But nothing is more uncertain than the happening of these contingencies, and the very fact that his own policy is withdrawing labor from the production of these commodities, is one of the sure causes of the uncertainty. With cotton at five and six cents, and the necessaries of life nt the common prices which we have had to pay for them for some years past, we can see no other fate for the man who confines his attention to cotton but inevitable ruin. In the long run the planter who himself pro duces what is necessary for the support and comfort of his family, and at the same time excretes a proper economy in his expendi tures, is bound to become prosperous ami independent. The whole history of the past fully establishes this fact. It is our intention merely to glance nt the subject in tbia article. Many arguments might be brought in to establish the posi tion we nre seeking to impress upon the mind of the planter. The difference be tween the effect produced on our UaWU the production of cotton and those of the grain crops constitutes an important item which should not be Jeft out of the account in an investigation of this subject. The last year presents a practical illustration of the soundness of the views we have pre sented. A large majority of our planters planted large grain crops ami paid less at tention to cotton, and the result has been most favorable. Our people were never iu more comfortable circumstances than they are and have been during the present win tor. Their cotton have brought remunera tive prices, while everything around them rejoices in comfort and plenty. The exper iment has proved a successful one. and we hope it may be Continued until it shall be come the settled policy of our people. Sa vannah Republican. CLEANING WOOL. As some will cleanse, or attempt to cleanse their own wool, it may not be amiss to give some directions upon the subject. Ten years, experience qualifies me to say, that the following recipv will work well, with proper care. To four pails of water, add four quarts of salt; heat the solution as hot as you can bear the hand iu it; put in the wool loosely, say 2 lbs at once; in ten minutes it will be cleansed ; squeeze out the liquid, (which is better than before, for the eond use.) and while the wool is warm rinse in plenty of water. Many use soap. pound the wool, or rub it on a wash-board- this is nil wrong, as such a course fulls the wool like a felt hat. and faiU to I gum It Jithcult to convince such a practitioner that cleansing wool is a chemi- I cnl process, not inechani.ml. Soap renders ' wool sticky. No one need fear baring his wool -dropped" if it be well cleansed j Clean wool is perfectly white and free from 1 gum. Again, wool must not be left in a pile while wet, till it musts or mildews; if i, no machine I ever taw will card it well. ' I say again, pick out all burs, sort vour ' wool as yon want it. and take it toother : with tk.. ....... .i t. , . I l" me inacnine. una sav to . j ine caruer, grease and card." If jou do so, the chances are you wiU have good rolls. IVrhais others may know of a better rAino L T thau the above. x CHEAP OIL FOR KITCHEN LAMPS.

Alter awhile flue, have always been considered the cutest ; emigrants began to flock in, and among people on earth ; that is in a trade or a j others was a family who brought quite an genteel swindle. But a Dutch yankee can 1 assortment of furniture, and among other heat all hollow a New England yankee. things a piano forte. The fame of this new On one occasion a Dutchman came into I fangled musical instrument was noised about Buffalo with hams to sell, and among the j and produced great excitement; it reached rest, sold a dozen or two to a well-to-do ; Jake's ears. Some time afterwards, passing i tavern keeper, also a German. The quality j the house, he thought he would call and see of hams was recommended as excellent. them. Jake was received by the lady, in This old German, in demonstrating the the absence of her husband, with great acuteuess of his countrymen over the j politeness. After sitting some time, he Yankees, told the story in this wise: "you j looked around for the piano.
