COTTON planting IN THE SOUTH.
« Executive Department,^ )
Milledgeviile, March 11, 1863.)
Dear Sir:—On iny return troin Atlanta, your
letter has been handed nie by my Secretary. 1
reply to both your in(|iiiries that he who plants
more than three aero in fcotton for each rtynlar
field hiniif, in my o]tinion, violates the law, anu
is suhject to its penalti 'S.
I deeply regret to see a disposition nianif’ested
by many td our planters, to cultivate every acre
of their lands in cottoti, whicdi they can plant
without incurrinir the penalties of the Statute
The patriotic conduct ot the jdanters, last spriiig,
in the reduction cf their cotton crops, and the in
crease of their grain crops, saved many of our
people from starvation, our army from disband
ing, and the (’otifed'^rac'y from ruin. l( the ne-
c•*s^ily existed then tor this change o! produc
tion, how much more imp(*rative is it now.'' I he
encniv have overrun, and now hold a large por
tion of the most prodnetive p.irt ot our territory.
How much more of it niay be thrown in their
rear by the vicissitudes ot war, .so as to destroy
the crop of the present year, no one can with cer
tainty prcdict. .\s our limits are cont'acted, a
large part (d the loyal people leave the section
in the pos&(‘Hsjon of the enemy, and come intf)
the interior Thus th** population to l)e support
ed by the lands in our possession, and the labor
at our eommand, is increased, while the area ol
production is iliininished, 'and our productive
labor Constantly weakened by new levies ot troops
for the army. H hen three fourth'j of the white
laborers of the 'onfederacy are under .arms, the
womt'n and children anl tlic army must look to
the products of'lav«‘ labor for bread. If this labor
or any considi'rable proportion ol it is employed
in the »‘ulture of cotton, or any thing elst; tliai vvill
not sustain life, the conse(|uenees must b»‘ id the
n.ost fatal character. ♦ * *
In a large portion of the Confcileracy, and a
\ ery impovtant soetioi) of our own State, where
most irrain was bort ti'fore jtrodiiced, bread can
not be bought for money, at any reasonable
price, ainf the poor, and especially many poor
soldiers' faniili'S. are upon very short allow
ance. and could not avoid Hie most intense
sutF-'rinir. if ni't .-t-irvifion. were there no surplus
in the cotton rcLrioiis This re-ults from two
Causes 1st, Tie lands in these sections of the
C'untry h.ive heretofore been cultivated almost
entircdv t'y whi'e labor, which is now in the mili
t.irv s,>rvice The jiopulation is heavy, and the
number of women and children left without assist

A (,u.,d H>,ul .SVory.—Many o.,od things have
been told of Dr. Thompson, the world reiiowntrd
humorist and hospitable proprietor of the Atlanta
Hotel, whose ready wit but few ; re willing to en
counter; but a httle incident occurred there last
week which rather worsted the I'octor.
A Lieut. Colonel who was w unded at Mur-
ree,t>.)ni, who ha'l been stopping awhile with
him. on the 20th day called for his bill. The
e iging clerk handed him the do. ument with lit)
ay.s multiplied by 84. The ('.»loael scanned
the bill, and observed it,.s footing up—8^0, He
turnea to the Doctor, who wa.s present, and asked
him if he did not ihink tliat pretty heavy. The
1' 'Ctor, with tfiat peculiar toss of Mead which in
dicates a smail whirlwind, said; “ A'9; if you had
to pay tour dollars tor a gobbler, one dollar a
d'izen for egtrs, four dollars a pound for Rio cof
fee, one dollar twenty-five eentw for butter, fifteen
dollars a bushel for potatoes, and tive dollars a
pair for shad, jjoud think it was Hjht'.
The Colonel ran his eye over his bill again and
fjuiiftly refilled: “Well. I have bi . n liere twenty
days, and d—n the article you have mentioned
have 1 H.;en on your table.”
It is >.iid the Doctor rushea out into the back
yar.l ami did not cool off till be bad whipped

Thi' I rr.ss. Nothint; can be more absurd and
disgustiiiir than the lordly contempt occasionally
affected by some politicians for the newspaper
pre.ss. 'I’he Press is a power in tvery State—
a power scarcely second in constitutional Gov
ernments to that of the thr-»ne itself. The
London linies wields an influence in (Christen
dom such as no single statesman of this age ex
erts. The Press of the South has been the life
and breath of this revolution. D is imp.i.s.,ible to
over-estimate the im^ictus which the Southern
movement has derived from the Press. It has
aroused the patriotism, encourairi d the hopes,
nerved tlie hwirts, an.i strengthened the arms ot
the peojile of the South throughout this contcst.
It has pointed out dangers to be avoided, called
attention to the necessity of economy and retrench
ment, stimulated the agricultural interests, and
denounced abu.ses in the administration of affairs
with unsparing fi.Jelity and boldness. Ten thou
sand such politicians as undertake to denounce
this powerful organ of public sentiment could
not accomplish as much for the public interests as
asitiiilo press.— Rk hmmd Disjxitrh.

7'he Ratj Hay.—The rag bag should become an
institution in every hou.sehold. Paper, tor Gov
ernment, printing, business and private purposes,
is not only in greatdemand but bears an exorbitant
price. Nothing would tend more to increase its
quantity and cheapen its price, than the general in
stitution of ttie rag bag. Let every scrap of cloth,
rope and thi-ead, refuse cotton, and all wasted ma-
tefial ot w'hich either cotton, flax or hemp forni.s
the fibre, be diligently saved, and sold to the pa
per mills, and paper will become abundant and be
furnished at redyced rates. Let the rag ba'g then
be the order of the day.
.1 L'i,}/g Advice.—The Charlotte Whig,
which is edited by a lady, says:—
Advcrtmng for a W’ije.—W e notice that so ni
of the “Home Guard” of (Columbia, 5. C , are be
coming alarmed at the partiality of the ladies for
soldiers, and have been driven to the nece.ssity of
advertising for a help meet. We think their
grounds oi apprehension are just, and hope that
no fair lady will be foand to respond while a man
in the caniji remains si igle.. A faint heart nevv'r
won a fair lady, and we hope the proverb may
prove true in the present instance. Shouldei
your muskets and prwve yourselves worthy of the
fair, and then you wont be driven to the necessity
of advertising your claims. They will be seen
aocl appreoiated.
