Mr. liRi NKK : Feting the subjoined
letter of Mr. Hardaway in the Kaleigh
New, and being struck with its remarka
ble statement, 1 "wrote at wiee to Mr.
Maleolnr Jolmston, Secretary of the State
Agricultural Society of Georgia, to ascer
tain whether or not they were reliable.

Mr. Hardaway. He also sent me the two
addresses -referral to, which I shall 1m
pleased to show to afiy who feel interest

Dear Sir: 1 mail you with this, copies of
our proceedings at Stone Mountain" and
Thomasville, in vliich you will find the
addresses referred to of Mr. K. II. Hard
away, w ho is one of our most progressive
farmers and esteemed citizens, and a gen

B. 15. Lkwis, Eso.r In reply to your
letter of the tth instant, I will state that
iny little farm, comprises 15 acres and is
within the corporate limits,. of Thomas
ville. i
Last year I left out five acres to rest it,
and cultivated only ten acres with the
following results, viz: I gathered JtJSbush
. els of corn, 18 bushels of wheat, Xlu7 bush
els of oats, .'3 bales of cotton, average 4.'18
lbs. each. I also made potatoes, peas and
kershasvvs and the fodder of which I took
no account, as I used them as needed in
my family. The account as published in
the Macon Telegraph was literally true ex
cept the omission of 18 bushels of wheat,
potatoes, jeas, kershaws and fodder.' I
-further add that the J7 bushels of oats
were actually ttoldaud delivered and ship
ped to Washington county for seed oats. I
have a genuine warranted runt proof oat,
that I have planted 2 years, without a
rust head in all tliiit time. I have careful
ly selected my seed from them since 1871.
At the late Fair I exhibited 12 cabbage,
sowed Jan. 15, 1877, weighing, "(aggregate)
204 lbs; 12 turnips, sowed Jan. 29, 1877,
131 J lbs;t beets, sowed Feb. 5, 1877, 43
lbs; 12 white California radishes, 15 to 22
inches long, sowed March 27, 1877; White
Xaples onions, 4 inches iu diameter, seed
sowed Jan. 29, 1877. In 1875, I had 7
. acres ot oats, yielded and sold 52o bushels;
3 acres of corn, yielded and sold 158 bush
els ; 5 acres of cottou, yielded 3 bales
weighing 1300 lbs., also potatoes, peas,
pumpkins, kershaws and fodder, &e., See.,
not counted. This year, 1877, I have 5
acres corn, 5 acres oats, 1 acres in wheat,
3i acres in cotton. Mv oats have beeu
gathered, and I w ill sell 400 bushels and
"i ' i j . jt- i ivi .
Keep seeu ior my next; crop. nar my
corn will make the season alone will de
termine, the prospect now points to a
good yield, say 300 to 350 bushels. Can't
say how much wheat, it is not threshed,
but looked tine when it was -cut. I will
plant potatoes and peas this month on my
stubble land as usual.
1 find sowing peas, 2 bushels to the
acre, on my stubble land, produces an im-lnense-viue
crpp, which turned under en
riches the land yearly, and I have been
pursuing this plan with rotating the crops
annually for many years, and I attribute
much of my success to the pea as a reno
vater iu the quantity of nitre they contain.
I w ill state further, the annual crops of
my little farm, since 180(, of which 1 have
record, will average full up to the crops
of 1875-70, while the cro.s oll868V09-70
all cotton, surpassed them largely, to wit:
in 1808 I sold my cotton crop for eash, $1,
721.44; in 1809, $1,014.02; iu 1870, $1,
316.41. I have taken good care of my farm and
have enriched it annually by putting bacl
niore than the exhaustion; until it has
reached a very high state of productive
ness having made as mutlt-as 119 bush
els of com on one acre ; I pursued the "in
tensive system" entirely, usually gather
as much from 15 acres as most farmers
get from 100 acres, what they term fair
land and crops, and as much as the yield
of 150 acres of poor land. I am glad to
say the intensive system is getting more
in vogue, and that Mr. E. L. Neil, of this
county, profiting by my example, the year
1875, made 015 bushels of oats on five
acres. My usual oat cron. is about 75 to
90 bushels per acre, and have never made
less than 00 bushels to the acre. 1 have
been Jtryiug to add my mite of experience
to the success to beattained by patient,
practical, improved culture in the garden
and field; and by request, delivered! wo
addresses before tlie Georgia State Agri-
.cultural Society, at Stone Mountain, 1874,
and Thomasville, 185, which gives a full
.detailed account of crops annually. Y'ou
.can obtain them by application to Mal
colm Johnston, Secretary, Atlanta Ga.
My statements may seem overstrained
to strangers, but my crops, on inspection,
and my neighbors, will verify jill I have
written. We are having good rains after
nearly one month drought.
Yery truly,
K- H. Hardaway,
P. S. I will state that iny Jarm was
prigjnally very poor, And yielded before I
bought it only tight bushels "of " corn per
acre. " -

GRASS AXD CLOVER SEED TO THE
ACRE.
We have many inquiries as to the quan
tity of grass -seeds to be sown ou an acre,
for meadow.
An infallible rule cannot be given for
all cases. Rich land requires less seed
than poor land. Soils well pulverized aud
prepared require less than Jumpy hard
soils.- 1 horoughlv rolling and harrowing
the land so as to cover all the seeds com-
pletely, makes less seed necessary ; when
well put in w ith a good drill less seed is
required than on high and diver land ;

They are now mined in- this manner :
Imagine, if you please, a large hole cov

acres, two hundred feet deep, from which
every particle of the dirt taken out has
been sifted and the diamonds "taken out.
At a depth of one hundred feet there was
struck a vein of hard clay soil, which is
estimated to Ins five hundred feet thick.
The soil is lifted out in basket by means
of pulleys and ropes and soaked in water
until soft, when it is worked to the con
sistency of cream, and then strained
through tiue seives, thus separating the
diamonds from the "mash."
Last year a scientific geutlman discov

Sad and Uistresxing Occurrence.
A very sad case of accidental drowing
occurred yesterday. Mr. II. J. Mints, of
this city, who lost his wife by death about
a week ago, has beeu engaged for some
time oh some government work at Bii; Is
land, about nine or ten miles below Wil
miugton, and yesterday, feeling lonely ou
account of his recent loss, be took his lit
tle sou, James Henry, between 0 and 7
years of age, with him ou the loat, be
cause, as he said, he thought the little fel
low would be some comfort to him. The
steamer Emma Dunn, upon which he is at
xvork, is aground ou the shoals at Pig ls-
laml aml he had a vawl attached to the
'
side of the steamer next to the river, in
which his little boy was fishing for crabs,
when, about 12 o'clock, he (Mr. M.) decid-
,i f t.f, i
ed to go on the steamer and take a shave,
"
preparatory to going over to the mainland
to stroll about, gather whortlberries, &c.
He carried out his intentions, and was
about finishing his shave when he heard
his child call him, in a few moments after
which he descended into the boat and dis
covered that his boy was missing, upon
which he looked over the side of the vawl
and saw his hat floating on the surface of
the water. He immediately plunged into
the river aud quickly drew the body of
his darliug from the briny depths and
took him on the steamer, where he resorted
to c conceivable niCUDS in his kuowl-
edge to resttsitate lum, but without avail,
and he was finally constrained to give up

A Singular Book. We have on our
table a singular- publication, in the form
of a pamphlet, from the publishing ofiice
of John Xichols, of this city, entitled "A
Wonderful Revelation of Heaven by an
Angel sent from God to Luzeue Chipman."
The authoress, Luzene Chipman, is a
Quaker ladjT, living in the county of Guil
ford, aud, we are told, is highly respected
by all who know her as a pious, christian
woman of more than ordinary intelligence.
She saj'8 iu the preface, that she publish
es the book because she was commanded
by the Angel to "take this aud publish it
to the world for ' the sake of the Eord
Jesus."
Whether in or out of the flesh, as Saint
Paul says, we cannot tell, but it is cer
tain she professes to have seen some won
derful things, aud she tells them in a
manner to couviuce the reader that she,
at least, is convinced of the truth of the
narration.
We believe the book-sellers of the city
have the pamphlet for sale. Hal. Xews.
A TOUCHING WAR INCIDENT.
Raleigh Xews. J
In one of the hotly-contested fights in
Virginia, during the war, a Federal officer
fell wounded in front of the Confederate
breastworks. While lying there wounded
and crying piteously for water, a Confed
erate soldier, (James Moore, of Purke
county, X. C.,) declared his intention of
supplying him with drink. The bullets
were flying thick from both sides, aud
Moore's friends endeavored to dissuade
him from such a hazardous enterprise
Despite remonstrance and danger, how
ever, Moore k'aped- the breastwork, can
teen iu hand, reached his wounded enemy,
and gave him drink. The Federal, under
a sense of gratitude for the timely service,
took out his gold watch and offered it to
his benefactor, but it was refused. The
officer then asked the name of the man
who had braved such daugor to succor
him ; the name was given, and Moore re
turned unhurt to his position behind the
embankment.
They saw nothing more of each other
Moore was subsequently wounded and
lost a limb in one of the engagements in
Virginia, and returned to his home in
Burkejcounty. A few days ago he receiv
ed a communication from the Fedcra
soldier to whom he had given the "cup ot
cold water" on the occasion alluded to
announcing mar he ii;u settled on mm
the sum of ten thousand dollars, to be
paid iu four equal annual installments o
twentv-five hundred dollars each. Inves-
gation has established the fact that there
is no mistake or deception in the matter.
