RASTOKAL EXI'IAUIISCF- AT HICKOKV,
N. C
Tin* reader may now take interest
in some other things lam going to
write about. Tiie first is about my
c Mijrreifation rotainin • mff as a pas
o o o 1
tor after Synods rejection of me. I
had been iu declining health some
j t isie before I went to Hickory. Con
| trary to my expectations, my health
i grew still worse while I was in
Hickory, until in May last, it became
necessary for me to give up ministe
rial labors. My congregations, of
their own accord, rather than allow
m • to resign, gave me a vacation of
four months. In that time Iso im
proved that my physician said that I
could carry on the work in mv
churches. So a week after the ad
journment of the Tenuesse Synod
mv vacation being out, I returned to
'Hickory to seo what my people
| would want. I found almost all of
I them quite indignart because the
I synod did not receive inc. They
j unhesitatingly and eagerly desired
mv continuance an their pastor. I
j decided to remain with them and
| await future development*. They
cheerfully gave me two more months
freedom from pulpit work to allow
' me the better chance to become stiil
stronger in body. In that tune I
found I could not bear regular min
isterial labor without rfsk of perma
nent injury to my health. It swem
ed espental that I should forbear
trving to do full ministerial work.
Accordingly I resigned on the 22nd
of October, to take the efTocl the Ist
of November. The church councils
accepted my resignation, at the same
time passing the following resolu-
tions :
lt,\iolrof, Ut. That we, the un
dersigned, officers of Holy Irinity
and Zion Evangelical Lutheran
churches, in accepting the resigna
tion of our pastor, 11** B. S Brow n,
do so with sincere sorrow and re
gret.
2nd. That we extend him our
sxiupathy in his physical disability,
and pray that h* tuny be so restored
as to again labor in the work of the
ministry.
3rd That having had him as our
preacher and pastor in active ser
vice six months, we b«ur witness to
his li lelity, and to his consistency in
Lutheranism both in doctrine atul
practice.
Kh. That we accept his resigna
tion on ii i other ground than that oi
ill health.

It has been my good fortune to

those of. uiy last charge are not one

I was expected to do in my absence
i was t" have my pulpit tilled at Zion

ho. 1 of the work heartily and gave
me every leason to believe that they
*''> ii. 1 steadily iueiea«e and abound

Lord. It is imjiossible for me to
understand why I was not allowed
sufficient strength to continue in

of ;übor. But it is right in (tod's

Honrv George, in this week s issue
of the devotes nearly
four columns to the hanging ofctho
anarchists. Here are some extracts
from his article:
Four io»n were hanged in Chicago
on I'ridav last, there would ha r e
been rive but that one escaj>ed tl o
gallows by almost deteriuined suicide.
Ihey were hanged upon judicial
conviction of the highest crime
known to the law— a crime which re
! suited in the killing of seven p>eopde
and tiie wounding of some scores of
others. \et, on the eve of their ex
ecution. a long pro ession, with muf
tleil drums and banner with
crap.e, marched through the streets
of No.v \ork ; on the Sunday after
their execution their dead bodies
were carried to the grave in Chicago ,
with demonstrations of respiect and
sympiathv such iu arc rarely accorded
to unquestioned public benefactors,
and in all p. rts of the country there
are indications that a considerable 1
class regard them not a«> ciiminals,
bat as heroes and martvra.
In this there is matter for much
serious thought. And if n true that
there are among workingmen many
win) are disposed to condone acts of
violence when committed bv those
who assume to be the champions of
oppressed labor, is it not truo that
there it the same blind class feeling

The An arch LU are not otn most

who died on Friday in Chicago, with
a fortitude worthy of a better cause;
back of the men who sympathize with
them and their deed, is a deep and
whispered sense of injustice. T hose
who are most responsible for the ex
j-teiice of this aro those who. having
time and opportunity and piower to
enlighten the public mind, shut their
eyes to injustice, and use their tal

the arousing of thought and
conscience, and decry any p-eaceful
remedy that maybe pu-opiosed.

Perhaps tins «-übject engrosses
the mind of the ?arTn»"r—?t*—
| as any other connected with his
business. .Many articles have been
written on this subject, published in
the agricultural journals, and Hs
cussel I»y the read ami vet, to
ilay, many fanners are undecided as
to which is the most successful
course for them to pursue fn s»».
let ting a course for my*e' f, I bore
ia mind the fact that manure was of
the most impoitance on the OIO
ami root crops, from th«* fact that
the roots of corn go deeper than
the root s of other crops in niy rota
tion. 1 therefore stait out
com the first y> a: vvith ail the ma
nure, spread from the wagon, (»>ot
dumped in piles to leach out for a
mouth or more, then scattered,) be
fore plowing. Then after corn has
been gathered I plow in thw fall if
weather will permit and sow in the /
sj Hug to oats. After thin crop id|
ol I so d it to wheal ami
After allowing it to remain in
two vears, I put it in \\ 1 eit a seeouJi
time, allowing all the fall crop of
c'ovi 1 to remain an 1 be turned in,
an 1 after wheat this time, I return
to e®ri: an in the start.
By this system, as the manure is
turned under for corn, its roots gen- »
erally find a portion, and when the
pieco is plowed for oat* the r*st of
the manure comes to the surface to
benefit the oats. After the wheat,
which iollows oats, the clover
jp»ed with or upon it is cut
1 llowing spring and falvTlui't the
second fall 1 plowed ttie second
•rop of clorer to get as large as
1111 be turned under for the next
■rop of wheat. Some tfars it may
>e best to allow the seeds to be ta-
Ken from the clover, with success
depending on suitable weather for
threshing; but upon the whole, in ft
series of years, I believe the addi
tional q i; 'v of wheat resulting
from the green crop plowed under
will overbalance the clover seed erjop.

lieve potatoes should bo planted

of potatoes at the em's of corn rows
it i> better to turn the team upon in
