One farmer tthould endeavor to profit from tbe experience of another so that each one will uot have to undergo all the various experiments without having bad some previous knowledge of what tbe result is going to be. We copy a few points on tbe cultivation of corn made at the Ohio Agricultural Station though the difference in locality may not exactly coincide with the climate and soil of North Carolina : "Experiments made at the Ohio Agricultural Station during past seasons throw considerable light upon, il they do not entirely settle, some points in the cultivation of corn about which iarmers are not entirely agreed either in theory or practice. As cultivated at tbe station, the following appears to have been retty well estaoiisnea: Aa a claa the large yellow dent varieties were the most productive. Large white dents take second place, lu the flint varieties the largest white flints take the lead, followed by mixed flints and these bv vellow flints. Taken as a whole or as individual varieties, the flint corns are not a profitable class for Ohio lands unless it should be in some of the northern sections. In seven years' experiments in deep and shallow planting, the average results show an advantage in favor of planting one inch rather than two inches deep. The greatest amonnt of marketable corn was produced where tbe stalks averaged twelve inches apart ; the variations yield were slight, whether planted one grain every twelve inches, two every twenty-four, three every thirty-six, or four every forty eight inches. Three years' trial baa not indicat ed any marked differences in the reproductive qualities of corn lrom the butts, middles or tips of the ears. Whenever any variation existed it was in favor of middles and tips and against tbe butts. Tbe average results ot two years' experiments favored deep cultiva tion rather than shallow, and indi cated that corn should be cultivated more frequently in a dry season than in a wet or ordinary one." UNREST. The London Times says, "There is much unrest in all ages, classes and occupations." A wave of unrest is agitating tbe masses of Great Britain. For a time only civio circles were agitated. Tenants were restless under the exactions of landlords ; labor was resentful of the tyranny of capital throughout the Empire, while in Ireland the people were ready for revolution and only awaited an opportune hour to strike for independence. Hitherto, in England as else where, the military has been the strong arm of despotic power, but now the wave of unrest has reached even the military, as illustrated in the refusal of the Grenadier Guards to go out on parade, at the direc tion of a Martinet Colonel, who had wearied them with his in spec tlons and drills. Ic has been many years since England has witnessed anything like a mutiny among English soldiers; but this move meat, or refusal to move, came so near being a mutiny as to become tbe subject of official investigation. The day has gone by when sailors could be strung up at the yard-aim and soldiers have the life lashed out of them for daring to disobey some slight command from an epauletted tyrant. Why all this f Why does tenant rebel against landlord, labor resist the demands of capital, Ireland quivers on the verge of revolution and the soldiery of England refuse to obey her command T It is human right asserting itself! It is man hood vindicating its high pre rogative. This unrest is not confined to England. It stirs the blood ot savage tribes ia Africa's sunny clime, and makes the Russian Czar question whether it is better to yield to the demands of bis people or give his life at the execrable demand of the assassin. But why these illustrations T why go abroad for examples of asserted manhood f Tbe world does not afford more striking illus trations or higher examples of progressive manhood than are to be found in our own beloved America. Here tbe rebellion of labor against the tyranny of capital is openly proclaimed. Agricul turists, always the most patient and forbearing element of society have risen like giants from their sleep to assert their manhood and vindicate their God-vouched pre rogatives. Where will it end T Temporary confusion will result, but in the end will come the vindication of the right. The great fundamental principle that Government was made for man, and not man made for Government will be acknowl edged, and from the bosom of un rest will come a peace in which Government will be restored to its legitimate object the happiness of tba people. EX-MAYOR HODGES, OF BALTI MORE, OS THE FORCE BILL. We copy from the Globe the foi- lowmg aoie uiscussion 01 toe ronw - ii i- - r I H'11 by lloa- James Hodges, uaiu more, ibis aistinguisnea gentle man is a conspicuous favorite for Governorship of Maryland at no distant day. Clear beaded, sound ami orthodox iu bis political opin ions. M'holarly and polished in his thoughts and manners, faithful and devoted to his friends, a fearless advocate of the rights of the peo pie, and au un bought and un purcbasable lover of liberty, he should bold the reins of power in his native State as a patriot and a statesman : "The opinion in detail follows : I have read the interviews published in the Evening Globe, respecting the election bill, and I am in full sympathy with the letter and spirit of what was said in its denuncia tion. In my judgment a more dishonorable effort has not been made in modern times by one po litical party, at a period of profound peace, to emasculate tbe power of another, it is a device for grasp ing control of democratic 8tates. which is absolutely disgraceful, and their representatives in Congress who originated it ought to be driven from public life. As a pre text for the passage of the Lodge bill, the republicans claim that the democrats are practicing election al fraads in the Southern States. The cry of unfair elections in the South, as an excuse for the passage and application of the so-called force bill, is a discreditable sham. It is for republican supremacy down there, and not for honest elections Quay, Reed, Dudley and their set are contending. Nor is the race question in any way really in volved; sympathy for the colored brother is the least element in the case. It is a party maneuver, undertaken in the spirit of despe ration, to secure political dominion over a people toward whom the republican leaders are in every way antagonistic. If electoral trauds are perpetrated in the South as alleged, by the conspirators, they axe simply construction, and are brought about by negro absten tion from tbe polls. Out of this they would concoct a greater fraud and legalize it by the grace of federal snpervisorabips in tbe benefit of tbe republican party. "The real truth Is, the ascen dency of the repubican party is threatened by the most burden some class legislation, and the bayonet bill is a desperate device to keep it in power at all hazards. The idea which its plausible advo cates advance, that it is designed to promote the public welfare and purify the politics of the South is a transparent delusion, and the trick of making this bill applicable to all the States may mislead simpletons, but will not deceive thoughtful men. Like the force bill of 1870 it is designed for ex clusive use in the South. "What chance of fair represent tion, let me ask, is possible for the south under the force bill, adminis tered by a lot of unscrupulous supervisors irrespective of colorT No intelligent man can be blind to tbe tact that Bach au agency in tbe bands of such a party means tyran ny in its most oppressive and odious form and nothing less. Besides, it may be said in condem nation of the bill that southern republican and southern democratic congressmen, seeing tbe danger to the peace and prosperity of the south in the enforcement of the bill, have united in protesting against its passage. And thia should be regarded as a wholesome warning. A republican congress man from North Carolina,Mr.Ewart, if I remember correctly, declared the bill to be as 'damnable and vicious a piece af legislation as was ever put on the statute-books.' This I believe to be the sentiment of the more intelligent and respectable members and representatives of the republican party everywhere. "Tbe whole thing is a partisan despotism, conceived by tbe govern ing junta of the republican party in the interest of republican suprema cy, embracing the legislative and executive power at Washington, the electoral machinery at the south in the hands of white and black radical republican supervi sors, and the military power which will be called in to enforce obedi ence to fraudulent certificates of election. I am notjaltogether inclin ed to hold the republican party responsible for this movement. It is the cunning and power-loving device ot a few corrupt and danger ous political conspirators. It is a hopeful sign to see so many republicans protesting against it. "But there are other disasterous consequences more material in their nature to ensure ta the south and to the whole countiy from the passage and enforcement of the force bill. It would interrupt, to a large extent, tbe economic rela tions now existing between the southern aud western, ana eastern states. Northern capital, now ex cessive at home, would become timid and cease to flow lu that direction; and sales of northern merchandise to the south, by reason of political disturbances, would be perceptibly diminished. Northern interests in southern mining and manufacturing enter prises would be materially depress ed. No more inappropriate period than this could have been selected for the application of snch a bill to the elections of the southern states for at no period since the war are' the north and the west more largely profiting by southern prosperity. The force bill would be a fatal disturber of all this, and as I have said before would be wounding the goose that has laid millions of golden eggs for tbe western farmers and eastern merchants and manu facturers. Let the sensible repub lican constituencies of tbe country, whose representatives in congress are unwisely pushing the force bill, call meetings to remonstrate against their reckless course." A press dispatch dated London, Ang. 1 says : Letters from South America represent that the Chilians scorn the idea of extending any trade advantageous to the United States. They claim that their copper producing inaustry was greatly injured by the American tariff, and that the United States has no snob claim upon their good will as England. A similar feeling toward the United States is said to be prevalent in the Argentine Bepublic. FORT BARNWELL ITEMS.

Trenton, Al o. 4, lsOo. The picnic at Deep springs, Jones county, on Friday last was a grand success just what everybody expected who are acquainted with the noble, large hearted citizens of that vicinity. The grounds were put in ample order and seats wyere prepared to make the visitors comfortable, and a table was prepared that was over a hun dred yards long. We must say that we have never visited a picnic that could compare with it. Everything appeared to be in the right place and these good people have .such a winning way to welcome you that you imme diately find yourself right at home with friends who are striving to make the time very pleasant. At eleven o'clock, L. E. Duffy, Esq., introduced Mr. J. M. Mewborne who gave them a real ringing Alliance talk for about an hour, which was well received. When he concluded, F. D. Koonce, Esq., of Onslow, was introduced, who gave a talk just like he can do it, a real nice, earnest speech which car ried conviction to all. Mr. Koonce is well known in Eastern Carolina as a good debater, and we must say that his speech on this occasion showed much research into the history of the Government since the war. When ho concluded, the large crowd, estimated between six and eight hundred, were called to dinner, which was really just good enough to satisfy the appe tite of any one, and we note that the crowd left on the table enough to feed nearly as many more. Well, water-melons were rolled in, and all were invited to help themselves, which they did, and the supply was inexhaustible. We have attended many picnics, but we have never attended one the equal of this, everything went like clock-work every com mittee appeared to know and do its full duty so as to please all present. Tne Democratic Executive committee of Jones county con vened to-day and called the Democratic primaries the 13th of September. and the county convention the v'oth of Septem ber.

So our friend, Frank Green will havb op position right in Ji is own political house. But we have heard it objected by some that Frank had been attending to repairing his political fence for nearly two years and that it was supposed that he had it staked and ridered and all the little cracks stopped, so nothing could slip through or jump over it. lieliglou iu the Colleges. The colleges never had so many professing church members in them as at present. A few examples will show this. Yale College in 179." had but four or tive students who were church-members; today nearly one half hold such member ship. Princeton in 1813 had but two or three openly professing tbe Christian faith : today about one half, and among them the best scholars. In Williams College 147 out of L'48, and in Amherst 233 out of 352, are members of churches. In many other colleges, as proved by Dr. Hodge, from whose carefully prepared tables these figures are taken, the proportions are still more favorable to tbe prospects of religion. Uarper's Magazine.

Pa., made some very pointed remarks about road supervisor and their work iu the address on tbe advantages ot good country roads which he delivered recently before the Pennsylvania State Board of Agriculture : Tt is amazing," said Mr. Kratz, "io sto what unfitness there is among men serving iu the capacity : of strtet commissioners : they ap pear to have a correct idea of tbe quality ol the material required ! lor road use, no judgment orknowl- i edge as to its proper preparation and little or no conception as to its correct application upon the streets.

Ou the demand of certain tax payers of Bensalem township Moses v andegrur, tbe supervisor, made a contract with them for making a good and substantial road bed upon a specified part of the highways of the township, either by macadam izing the same or by the use ol stone and gravel, or in such other way as Bhould be deemed advisable and proper to make a permanent benefit to the township. Tbe woik appears to have lrcen done to the supervisor's satisfaction, and the cost was claimed as a credit against the amount charged to bim upon the township duplicate. I'The cost according-to tbe con tract, equaled tbe amount of taxes due to the township from tbe tax payers, with whom tbe contract was made. The township auditors dis allowed the credit on tbe ground that the supervisor exceeded "his authority in making such aeon- tract. Judge Yerkes said that the contract was clearly within the law and such as t he supervisor had the right to make. It was also for for the making of such a road as the law contemplates, and of the materials mentioned by the act It was true it might result in mak ing a better character of road thau is usually provided by the ordinary supervisor, but no better than tbe statute intended should be made "Judge Y'erkes said that instead of making such improvements to the roads as would keep them con stantly in repair and at all seasons clear of impediments to easy and convenient traveling it was usual for the supervisor to make a pre tense of repairing the roads by throwing upon tbe bard bed from the side ditches loose earth, un broken rolling stones and whatever oiher material, suitable or uusuit able, that might be found in tbe ditches alongside, without reference to the condition ot tbe road or the necessity for repairs or filling up. The consequence was that often good roads were made worse, if not nearly impassable, for a season, while poor ones were neglected, simply because the immediate side ditches did not furnish suitable material to repair them with. This short sighted and too often useless system of repairing roads was frequently approved by the tax payers tor two reasons : First, because supposed to be inexpensive, and, eecOnd, it permitted bim to work out his taxes without being required to furnish valuable ma terial or to provide the better labor that a different method would de mand. "The judge suggested that if, instead of this ineffectual method, a portion of the highways of each township where most needed should each year be put in a state of per manent improvement, with such temporary repairs onlv as are needed to other portions? in a few years the same expenditure would result in establishing a system of safe, good and pei manent roads which would not require half the expenditure incurred by the system now practiced. "In most localities people prac tically prevent the construction ol good roads, either by refusing to elect men for supervisors who, il elected, would improve the roads, or by defeating at tbe succeeding election those who, bv reason ot having letter road construction, increase taxation. For an increase of tax to the amount of 10 cents on $100 and even lees, because of road improvement, defeated in many of the townships of this state. "Under the present law the desired result could gradually Le realized by constructing as many miles of stone road annually as a reasonable assessment upon proper ty valuation and the amount received from the state (if appro priated (would permit. The state appropriation should only be given, however, upon the conditon that supervisors ot each township con struct a certain distance of road each and every year. I believe that the present road law, if not repeal ed, should be so modified as to annull the clause permitting taxpayers to work oat their own taxes, because the work done by the taxpayers, as a rule, is per formed without knowledge or care.''

"Unstable as water.thon shalt not excel,'' is the language of the Bible Whosoever expects to succeed in any undertaking, must enter in to do his best. When a trade or pro fession is chosen, obstacles, be they large or imall, mast not be allowed to stand in the way of mas tering the trade or profession However much we may depreciate the old-time custon of indenting apprentics, tbe system, in its practical results, operated almost always for the lasting good 01 the apprentice. Generally, it insured to him a good trade and a wholer some discipline that fitted him for success in business. At the pres ent time very many young men undertake to acquire a trade, and after a brief trial abandon it be cause there are unpleasant duties to perform and obstacles to over come. They consider themselves accountable to no no one, and go and come at the bidding ol caprice, or an unsettled, uneasy mind. The result of this is to send out into the world voung men who have not half learned their trades, of unst able character, who drift from one place to another, and who sncceed in nothing but strolling along the highways of life, only the wrecks of men. We would earnestly entreat every young man, after he has chosen his vocation to stick to it; don't leave it because vigorous blows are to be struck or disagree able work performed. Tne men who have worked their way up to wealth and usefulness do not belong to the shiftless and unstable class, but may be reckoned among those who took off their coats and rolled up their sleeves, conquered their prejadices. against labor, and manfully bore the heat ana Duraen of the day. Whether upon the tarm, in tne machine shop or factory, or in the thousand other business places that invite honest toil and skill, let the motto ever be Perseverance and Industry. The baby training of the nursery was good in its place, but it won't answer all the demands of an active lile. e must exceDt to be knocked and jostled about in the stern conflict, and run over, it we are not on me lookout and prepared to meet the duties of life with a purpose not to shirk them but to fulfill them. A young man with a good trade or honorable profession, as he goes forth into the world with his mind made up to stick to his trade or profession, is not obliged to ask for many favors. He will hew his way to success, while the nnstable and shiftless will grow tired, despair and fail.

But not only is the use of a medicinal safeguard to be recommend ed on the first appearance of a malady, but a wise discrimination should be ex ercised in the choice of a remedy. For thirty years or more Iloatetter'e Stom aoh Bitters bas been tbo reigning spe cific for dyspepsia, fever and ague, a 1 088 of physical stamina, liver complaint and other disorders, and has been the most emphatically indorsed by medical men as a health and strength restora tive. It is indeed a wise precaution to use this sovereign fortifying agent and alterative in the early stages of disease, for it effectually counteracts it. if the malady belongs to that large class to which this sterling medicine is adapted. Not only is it t ffloaoious, but pure ana ; harmless. It is better a man should be abused than forgotten. Alden's Manifold Cyclopedia.
