Mr. Editor : In an article a few days since, I un dertook:, to prove that it was profitable to the planters of your State to raiss more wheat, I think I have shown that even with the poor manner of preparing ths land, the wheat crop is more profitable than any other crop; and I set out now to give my notion how land should be prepared. If the land designed for wheat is io stub ble or has been laying out, it should be plowed deep, then let it lie until seeding time, when it should be well plowed again, and well harrowed both ways with a heavy harrow, to break up all clods, and kill out all gross and weeds. If sowa broad cast, from one and one quarter to one acd one-half bushels should be sown to. the acre, and barrowei in and the ground well brush ed so as to leave it smooth, which will be found to be a very great advantage in cutting. After the sewing, harrowing and- brushing is ever, then a water furrow should be rua ev ery ten feet, in flat land, with a two-horse plow, an made deep to properly drain the land. Iu upland the water farrows might be from eixttei to twenty feet apart. It will be found to bs a great advantage to the wheat crop to keep the land thoroughly drained. Bat, I am fuL'y convinced that the really prop-r way to sow wheat is in drills, say from nine to twelve inch es apart, jfrepare the land lust as vou would for broad cast sowing, and after getting it thoroughly pre pared, open very light with a smftll scooter the proper distance, and wheat will spread uotil all the space be tween the rows will be filled up. A machine might be made for laying c2, say take a small harrow frame, and pat in three teeih behind. Have the teeth abont lour mikes broad, something like the teeth to a culti vator. They would oren the ground fuffioten'ly diep to sow in, and then it ehruld be curefolty aud regularly eowt-d. The saving would be in seed, and the incrrs ed quantity produced. One half of the seed would b? saved and the quantity raised probably 1 -double that made fr6m the broad cast sowing. The big wheat rais ed by Col. James Porter, which yielded two bushels and one quart from one pint of peed, was drdied about eigh teeu inches'; but that is wider than r.eees3.ary, twelve inches is plenty wide and will produce better. Nothing has gone so far to convince me of the whrat growing qualities of your land, as the csode of putting it in It is usually sowed on the ground and plowed ia and the land left very rpugb, and still produces well. How much more wonld be produced by properly preparing the land, the planters can find cut by trying, aad they wiil be thoroughly convinced by one trial. They will be weil paid for all extra labor. Why pir, if i; 3 were to put in our wheat in the Fame manner 1 aca put in here, wa would not calculate on moie than f ha half a crop, if that. Another thing I notice here, in cat ting. The planters or many of them seem to care very little how itia saved, work with aoy kfcd of a cradle, J sometimes with half the uogers out, and fha conse quecence is that tbey leave about one-fourlh on the ground. We certainly have meebzhical skill though among our people, to make goodradl s, and a man with fifty acresefgram will save eaongh to pay for a set of good cradles. They say the hoa will get it, no Ios3, &c, but it is as easy to give it to the hogs io some other way, besides the satisfaction to have your work nicely done. ' I hope our Alabama planters will feel the urgent necessity for raising as much wheat as possible, and will take pains to have it put in well. I would think nothing would make a man feel prouder tbaa to have cn his table the best quality of flour of his own raising, also, meat, vegetables, &c. He csvi have it as good as ever came from the West or North if he will only make use of the means an All V 1S3 Creatos has bleBSed him with. The proper time to sow is from the 10th to the 15th of O '.tober, aad why I think so is that it i3 too la'e for the fly, which ia n great destroy r of the young plant, and it is 'sufficiently late for t;. wheat to take good root before the hard fretz -s cf the winter. The crop owed at that time and well put in will ra-ely ever fail to gladen the heart of the planter. A KKMl UUklAft. THE EXCHANGE! CP PKISOXERS. Beast Butler has again remini d the world that the infamy of outlawry stiil attaches to him, and he ba3 writ'en, as "Commissioner of Exchange" a longYeview of the negro question, upon which, at a future day, v?e shall comment more at length. Oar present object is to call attenticn tc the fact that lesa than one hundred ezy, lousy negroes are permitted by the employers of this veritable "Caput Lvpinum" to condemn to horrid confinement one hundred thousand white men. There are Federal prisoners to the number cf fifty thousand now literally languishing bstweeu life and death in tte prisons of the Confederate States. JSo3talgia, in its most repulsive feature of insanity, makes a Bedlam of of lunatics of these prison pens whose wretched iumites lie downat night exhausted with their meaningless words about home and exchange, to rise again in the morning and renew the sameunmtelliblejabberiug. Deah car ried cn at Andersonville alone, in the months of July and August, eight thousand and eight of these poor creatures. Human misery hos reached it3 acme when insanity supervenes, and the loathsome disease which follows nostalgia is known to physicians to pro- dace derangement. That one hundred lazy, cowardly, louzy, runaway ne groes should be made the excuse for ali the wretched ness that those unfortunate Soldiers of the Union are now suffering, presents a feature iu the cruelty of fanat icism almost without a parallel. Discarding the recollection of the fact that these suf fering men came amorg U3 as robbers, ravishers and murderers, a common humanity demands that txtra ef- rorts be nude to mitigate, if possible, the wretcoedness they are suffering by the act of their own government. Ia this matter we are gled to know that steps are be ing taken to divide them into email encampments, where more care can be taken ot them and greater attention given to. their wants. Tbese wretched men, finding themselves hopelessly abandoned by their own government, may be won over to our cause by the ex ercise ot a little kindoees and attention. We k-iow of Yankees who have joined tmr armies and made most excellent soldiers. Amorjg these prisoners are msehun- ics of every trade and calling. From these men hun dreds of shoe makers have been selected and are now making shoes lor our armies. The untiring energy of Mcjor Maynard soqa discovered that Yankee prisoners in shops were much more cseful than iu prisons. Es tablishing a large shop, he took from the prisons shoe makers and organized a matiufactory. He has had but two of bis prisoners to leave the shop, and ihey went, not to Grant but to the United States. A small guard ia all that is required ; and these Yaukees permit de tailed men to be sent to the aru.y. Major Maynard, by kindness, has actually attached these Yankees to him and they are satisfied. Their pay is accumulating for them at home ; they are comfortably c o-ed for here, ard they are not anxious to be exchanged. Major May nard's txoeriment should be tried iu all our shops and ranu ackories. These Yankees, if treated kindly, wul 600ii oe sausuea ana conieatea iu reiuiiiu iu biu y rather than by escaping to the enemy to be sent back to their army for this fall end winter. For every Yan kee so employed a detailed man cm be seat to the trenches, and thus the practical enacts ot an exchange realized. The prisons in the Confederate States contain thous ands ot skilled mechanics, the very men. needed iu the shops and manufactories of the Confederacy. They . ... . i ii are in wretched misery wnen tney are connaea ; tney feel themselves to have been abandoned by their own government beciuse their term cf service has expired ; they know Butler's excuse about an exchange ot slaves to be but an excuse, acd that the real reason that they are left to lansiuieh and die in prison is be cause an excbBDgeof them wou'd bring to the Confed erate army soldiers, wane the Yankee army would get none by the exchange, and they feel most acutely their Bufferings, when they are thus degraded by the thous ands for less than one hundred negroes, who have fallen into their lawful masters' hands. Batler's last letter will be placed in their hands and translated iuto German, spread among them to show them how the Lincoln authorities care for the Union defende.s. Its sophistry will melt away before their intense suffer ings and they will mock the reasoning that thus hope lessly consigns them to endless imprisonment. The outlawry ot the Confederate authorities ia nothing to the deep damnation that is daily invoked upon the Beast by tbese wretched victims. General Order No. 65, is bringing an average of one hundred Yankees weekly into bur lines, aud they are being tent to the United States. These of them thit prefer to remain as mechanics or laborers are provided with employment the prisoners are the same class ot men, with far greater reasons for behaving themselves and attending to their employment than the deserter. The latter if caught iu the United States, is subject to the death penalty, while the former is secure in oar shops; his authorities can never discover that he ha3 given 'aid and comfort' to oar cause by working for us, and his pay continues daring his captivity. 1 hesc motive 8 render guards unnecessary ; bis seif-iatereat gaarus a gainst an escape, and his comfort makes him contented. 1 he Lincoln authorities have declined an exchange.

Ihe Lynchburg Republican publishes with pleasure,, the following commanicition from an officer cf the Con federate army, relative to the circumstances attending the death of the lamented Morgan; The elder Mrs. Wiliiams stands vindicated before the world from any complicity in this foul deed of assassir.a-ion, and we sincerely trust for the honor of woman, that the 45 near relative of the same name." may also' be able Jto clear her ekirts of the diamine charge, which, if true, will send ber came far down the tide of time loaded with the execrations of every paffiot in the land : BaisTOL, Sept. 8th, 1864. Editors Lynchburg Republican : In the account of Gea. Morgan's death, given in your paper of the 7th inst, you siy that Gen. Morg ta, with hid "stKff hid hi3 fcea.ccparters at the houae of Mrs. Williams in Green ville, ad on Saturday n;ght she determined to betray her jaeat, and h-ive him murdered. With this view, abe left th house at an early hour io the nii?ht and rode to Boll's G p to inform the enemy of MorgaS'B position, &c." You el-o eav that Mrs WihiimV husband ia on Barnsid's sU.11 This s'atement doca cruel injustice to Mrs. Williams who is an old lady ad a wHov who h3 extended as mucb wsrm hearied hospitality to our officers and pri vates a-? any one ia the Confederacy who ba3 ever ben ready to pjm pathizs with cur soldiors in their suffering anc1 to relieve their wants. Shf- is a f jgh-toDed Southern woman, a trua patriot, and the last person in the world to betray a guest. She ba9 harself a son, an efficr, in our cavalry. The first intimation Mrs. Williams fcad of the enemy was aft r they were on her premises. She at once routed Geo. Morgan from hia sleep, and urged and aid ed his escape from the house. No one in the land has been struck with more grief and horror at the oceur recce thon she.- Unfortunately thsrc wa3 staying with Mrs. Williams the wife of a nar relative of the sme name, whose tu3band is at Kooxville, though be baa never been in the Federal service. She hns two brothers, both of whom have been ia cur service bath of whom are true acd I&yal to the South, and one of whom is now a most galiant cavalry e ffier in Northern Virginia Morgan arrived on Saiurd-iy evening, and this young er "Mrs. Williams" left the house soon after. She was frequently nbs.'nt at other times, having a sister-in-law in the place whom she often visited ; she may have ab sented herself simply to be out of the way while the Confederate cflhers were at the bou?e, sharing doubt less in her hasbnd'a sentiments. Gen, Morgan was ap priz d of her absence and eusp'-cted at once tbat she had gone to commuoicate with the enemy. I have seen no evidence that she did so. She may or she may not have done so. Jt'a3 not like ber to do so. Nor was it ntctssary for her to give the information. Throwere enough others to do it. . All around io full view of the houeu and grouads throughout the ton, were bitter toriej. At the foo of the loS ia the house a ijoining, ived the wiie ol David F.y, now a prisoner in our hands. - Had Morgan be?n et camped on Boston Common he Touid not have been more really in aa enemy's Cona kry. Dozers of eyes wore on h's every movement from the morae.'.t of his arrival, Instant information was doubil.88 sent to the enemy by gurer messengers than feeble woman, and the way opetei and prepared by willir.g bands for their approach. It was the Tounsror Mrs. Williams who wes suspec ted, whether traly or not, of betraying Morgan. She ws herseif a guest iii the house. The identity of names has led you and your informant to lay this charge ot the door of the generou3 and kind old lady whose hoacred guest Gen. Morgan wa?. 1 knew ber well she would have freely laid down ber own life b.-fore she would b'jve concerted her hospitality into a trap even for an eneavy much more rather than have betrayed one to whom ana to whose cvase she was re ally and truly a friend. . Incidents of Flcltt Life. A correspondent of a Virginia paper relates the fol lowing incidents of the picket3 iu Le's army : Some time ao an order wa3 lauei by cur command ing general prohibiting de3orters frcm the enemy enter ing our line", aiid the pickets wore instructed to wafva ihem back, anrfir they did not go, to fare upon tb?m. For a week after The promulgation of this order many attempts were made by deserters to enter our lines,and it wos amusing to s?e their signals and signs, that they were "oil right," while our boys would not understand thi m. The cons.aaer.ee was. that in a little while the stream of deserters ceased to flow, and we thought our selves rid ol such troublesome customers forever. We held a lin-? in close proximity to the enemy, the rifle pits occupied by the pickets beieg in some places only fifty yards apatt ; but an arrangement exisLed pre venting Cricg by either party upon the other. Daring this " armistice," freqaent attempts were made by the Yanks to exchacge papers aid swap coffee for tobacco ; but orders were strict, and cmcirs alert, so that so op portunity was allowed, bad the inclination prevailed, to trade with the enemy. Among the tricks resorted to by the enemy to htdd communication was this : Tkey would write any thiol? they desired to cemmuntcate upon a small pitce of pnper acd roll it around a miaie or a grape shot and throw it across the line. One cf tbes: missiles brought oyer the following : "Johnny vviil ycu trade pspers with us! Ve have ail about the capture of the Alabama, the raid upoa flarper's Ferry, &c. Meet me hall-way ; you need not be afraid ol our shouting vou. We can have a friendly game of euchre, and wind up with whiskey." " Johnny Iv.-b Is the Fifty third Virginia still on this line ? I have two friends in that regiment got acquainted with them jtyhile exebacging papers, and think they are nice fellows, from appearances, loss your reply over as I do this." No notice wa3 paid to these communications, and after the deserters were stepped for some time, our gen eral became desirous to learn something of the enemy's motions, and issued an or jer cflering a fifteen days futlouh for a captured Yankee, jnow a3 soon a3 this crder was made fcuown along our picket lines, everybody wanted the furlough, and all sorts of tricks were practiced to entrap a laukee. Our dob commenced f baking papers and beckoning. bat blue bel breast smelt a mice" at to much fond ness expressed in a nicmen, and failed to come out of his h le. Some g'-v.d stories ore told upou come of the boys, two or which I remember just here. A reb Btarts out with a paper, and a pistol conceal ed, to rnett a Yauk;e who showed himself in the woods bf 'y yards from our pits. Getting within five steps of Y ack, he presents hia M3tol aad cries out, "Surreuder; but just then ano her Yank, close at hand, pokes his gun arouod a tree, aDd says, ".Swap papers, dama you, and get you gone." Which reb did in last time. A gocd one" is told of two jcung effitrs who wanted a furlough. One goes out unatrned with a paper, and . 1 r . .. .:-- 4 waiveu u ior some nine to eou-j j-auti iu ueiae uver, while the other stood ready to rusk to his assistance. After awhile a burly Irishman came up, and the cap- . .. ... J J J . 1 1 I.: tain at once grappled pirn aiiu tuueuveuevi ie icau mm in. I5ut lf'snman was too stoat : ana snoutaerjog our spunky little captain, was walking eff with him, when up ran the lieutenant with a ptstoi, ana lrisaman ca ved in " and was brought over a prisoner ; but Gen. Pickett said, ha couldn't give a furlough upon any such capture as that, ind sent the Irisbmon back, as he wan't taken wi'h arms ia hi.3 hand. 'I he Yanks to led e ff one of our rneD, and Batler sent him baek by flag cf truce ; bat the outlaw was not re cognizedand he carried the man back. However, he afteewards turned the man loose, and he come walaiog in with papers, stating how he bad been " gobbled up" "and snatched eff." Then came General Order No. 65, and we tossed them over the lines. In a day or two the order work like a charm, and the? came rolling ia by the dzen. We sometimes got fifteen deserters in one night ; all claimiog protection under General Order No. 65. We made a ra;d on their rifl i pits yesterday and cap tured sixty prisoners. Among tbc-in was an old Dutch man, who shook at us General Order No. 65, and tried hard to tell how he claimed "protection under d;su pro tection," bat we couldn't understand bis foreign lingo, and he bad to bank with the ether prisoners. Oa the evenjug of the 24th, it was reported to Gen eral 'thotpas that negroes were placed in the rifle pita ia h;s front, and he at once ordered his pickets to fire up on them 1 his produced a stampede among the colored brethren and much confusion in the camp of their white associates. Reinforcements were brought up by the Yanks, and then by General Tnomi.s. Bat. before hostilities began in earnest a flag cf truce came over, asking the season oi out fixing contrary to the arrangement which had existed for eight weeks General Thomas replied thatl iwwjuw 1 uvC 3 BVieucre, ami euuuiei Ca k. n . , 1 I . . . . uio upuu losin woenever aad wherever ttey appeared in arms." . j vr- lhe Yanks then s;nt white men to the pits and all became again qniet . Floggimq Garroters. John Croudace and Thomas Allison, who were convicted at the as3izes last week of furotte robberies at Sunderland and sentences, the former fo fife years atd the latter to too years penal serTjtuae, with twenty iwoes ecn, underwent the pun ishment of " flogging at the county prison on Saturday. The instrument of punishment was manufactured by a sailor, who is undergoing imprisonment in the goal .-expressly for the purpose. Ths cat is ingeniously com posed ef nine thou gs of stout leather, in each cf which are nine knot?, and, these being connected to a flexible handle, the power, weilded by strong hands, is terrific At every stroke the knot cuts deeply, making flesh and blood fly in every direction : The prisoners were firm ly tied upjn a reclining position, the lower part cf their shoulders ' exposed, the higher and lower part of their backs being protected by padding. Tae wardsrs, Hodg son and Allison, txecated their task with the skill of more practiced hands. The officials cf the goal were present, but the pris oners were kept in their cells. Hodgson and Allison alternately inflicted ten lashes each n each of the pris-1 oners. The first lash was received with comparative equanimity by each prisoner; but on the second, the yell of deep and excruciatiog agony which burst forth is represented as indescribable. Toeir cries continued daring the whole of the punishment, and these, together with the sight of the flying fk-sh and blood, the mangled blacks of. the suflerers, and the clotted skeins of the cat, made up a epeetacle of horror overpowering to those who witnessed it. When the punishment had bsen in flicted, the prisoners were taken down and removed to the prison infirmary in a state of complete prostration indeed it is averred that neither cf them could have received another lash without the greatest danger. Al though the prisoners did not witness the punishment, they could hear the shrieks of the unhrppy sufferers in their cells, and it is to be hoped the contemplation of the punishment may have a salutary effect on their minds.

We learn that a ttrnb.e Railroad collision occurred yesterday on the North Carolina Railroad, near Morrisviile, about twelve miles West or this city. The mail train due in this city at o'clock was somewhat behind time, and was dash ing on a' considerable speed, when it came in contact with a freight train., The concussion was tremendous one of the locomotives was terrible smashed and thrown off the track, and the Other greatly broken up. The Cirs of both trains were also broken acd damaged to a great extent, the debris piling up thj track eo that it will take a day or two to remove the rubbish. . A passenger who walked to this city, was unable to inform us of the names of the passengers irjured, but said several were hurt, only one, however, seriously, whose name he was unable to learn. Our informant said he was told he was a member elect to the Legisla ture from Rooeson couaty and was returning home f;om the army. Both his legs were broken, and he was greatly bruised about the breast and throat. It was thought hia injuries would' most probably prove fa tal. A train was dispatched to bring down the passen gers and mail, but had not returned when thia w s written. We learn that David Bethune, Esq., of Robeson, 13 me gentleman injured. onfeaeraie, 10.. A Rebsl Iron-plated Ram at Sea under the Uxion Flag. Our European advices by the Hiber nian and City of London inform us thit an iron-plated steam war ram, hoisting the Ucited States flag, was seen pessirg the Isle of Wight on the afternoon of the 26th of J uly, steering to the westward. We regret this intelligence as conveying a fact of the utmost im poitan.ee, and consequently call the especial attention of the executive, revenue and port authorities to it. The U. S. Government has no ram of such description cm ployed in its service eff the coasts of Europe or on the Atlantic, whereas the. rebel naval representatives in the Old World have, as everybody knows, traded in vessels of this description, from Laird's yard, at Biikenbead, England, to Bordeaux, m F ranee, aud thence away to the shores of the Bosphorus. The eteam ram which passed the lale of Wight on the 26th July was, in all likelihood, a rebel ram, notwith standing the fact that she displayed the Uuion flag. This has, no doubt, been done in order to enable ber to escape interruption on the part of our cruisers. Ii she was a rebei war vessel she must be near our coast by this time, and it behooves the port officers and navel authorities at New York, Boston, Philadelphia, Port land and the mouth of the James river to keep a sharp lookout for ber. An iron-plated rebel ram could inflict the most serious damage upon our city in a single night A dashing and unscrupulous commander like Semoies, iu a staunch vessel of this class, might, in fact, hold New i oik at his mercy for some hours. New York Herald. Beauregard. The poet to the contrary notwith standing, there is something in the name of thi3 gallant and successful leader which inepires tbe army and peo ple with more confidence than would the same quanti ties of head and heart if called by any other name. At Petersburg, as at Charleston, Corinth and Manassas, Beauregard is the? taiismanic watchword tbat has roused the entnutiiasm cf the country, brought order out of c raos, struck terror to the hearts of the enemy, and crowned onr arms with victory. Wherever the contest hs been desperate, tbe name of Beauregard has been called to rejeem the situation. Have the services of this whole-souled, patriotic and skilllui soldier ever been more needed than now at the head ot the army in Geor gia ? It is but simple truth to state that tbe whole country looks to him as the man for the hour. The claim ot thh tection for General Beauregard is not put forth in disparagement of Geoeial Hood or aoy other man. Montgomery Advci User. Proai the Maoon Confederate. Juttlc to Coloael jAndtrson. We eall attention to the letter published in to day?s nab r. taken from the Mobile Tribune. It will be seen from this letter and the document signed by the officers in Fort Gaines, attached to it, that Col. Anderson has been the 'best abused man ia the Confederacy ; and that !h surrender cf Fort Gaines was a necessity, recogni zed not only hy the offietrs ia the fort, bat also by the engineers ia Mobile It appears that all the newiJp yer accounts ot the strength of Fort Gaines were- un t ue. It wes nothing but a shell of place, and had bit one smooth bore gun moaated which could bear upon the fleet. Col. Anderson, like many another trae man, has been the vietios ot circumstauces and popular error. His case presents another warning to the people and the press, to beware how they cecsare in any case, be fore the whole facts are brought to light. It eives 'us trreat pleasure to make thia amende to Col Aodersba ; for the Confed.rate, in common with most of the journal of the country, was gailty of ds nouncicg that officer before he had an opportunity of beiog heard. It is also a source of macb gratification to us to learn that one who was suspected ot beinza traitor, proves a true and loyal man ; and that Ovlonel Acdcrson bas Dlactd no bar sinister ou the pure escutcheon of his family. We have no doubt 'that tha friends of the country who have deouundld thia officer will take the earliest opportunity to do him jasticvacd PIaJe bim tight be fore the public It ia duty wnicn iner owe mem selves, us well as to history, and to the officer who Las been so unjustly wronged. Benefit of Advkbtisikg A fellj ia oe of the cities " Down Eag(," recently advertised in a morning paper lor a wife, and before night eighteen different men peat him A Curious Fact. From the diary of a' wounded soldier, in. the Biblical Recorder, wa extract the follow-log- ..-:,: - "There "is a singular circumstance connected with xny wound. The most of the pain which I feel seems to be in tbat part of my body which has been amputated. Sometimes the lost foot becomes so very painful that 1 find myself trying. l clasp or scratch it, before I re member that it has been cat off." We have heard of each feelings. A high efficer now in this State' who lost' bis arm in Mexico, is said to feel agony in the lost hand and arm, though it is not far frcm twenty years since the wound and amputation. Is it so in all cases of lost limbs ? We suppose noi, but that it is owing to some peculiarity in the nervous organization. -From the same diary we copy the following: - " Wednesday, 18th.
