NO"8 1 I t I 1 - . ff - $ G I t : f V ? i 1 I V SAVE MANUKK. FARM MANURE AS SUBSTI TUTE FOR LABOR. o THE WAY FOR THE FARMER TO MAKE MONEY IS TO SAVE IT; NOT TO l'AY IT OUT IN MAKING HIS CROP. Li st week substitutes for labor were discussed, particularly horse power and improved implements. Following the same line of thought let us look'at alanine as a substi tute for human labor. The ques tion may be prere.ited in this form : Would it pay a farmer , not in the hacit of manuring, to cultivate half the usual quanity cf land and in vest the money which the lvboi re quired to cultivate the other halt would have -cost, in manure or fer tilizers On? first remark is that the quality of his land must in psit decide the sfnsver. In the case sup rosed, half lie land must produce as much with manure as all the land did without it : if not, the farmer would lose by the operation. II his land unmanured will brirg a bale ot cotton to the acre, it is al most certain that the cost of labor to cultivate another acre would not , purchase enough manure to make the first acre yield two ha.es. Whilst it is true that hve light bales have been ma le on an acre, three bale? to the acre, under aver age conditions, may be regaled as a maximum yield. Now as you npn proach the maximum yield , the greater the quantity of manure re quired to produce a given increase. It will take decidedly !es manure to increase the yield of an acre from 150 to 300 pounds of lint cotton,than from 8"ij to 1,C00 pounds. To ex press it in another form : the poorer the land the more profitable H will be to substitute m inure for labor. It will he more satisfactory ver 8 to 1 ok -A this matter :n the light of figures. On a cotton farm, all expenses, is fairly chargeable to the cotton crop. The corn, grain and lorsge raised, is all consumed by sio.-k to make cotton , or to make more crn or forage to make more cotton. Uniess some corn and for age is sold, the 5ho!e expense of these crops mut be churgfed up against cv-tton. supposing it to be the only money crop. Ttie cost of preparing;, planting and cultivating an aero of cotton w 11 vary firm three to five dollars, according to the skill of the farmer, and ihe na ture of his soil ; whether i i b t and easily cultivated or the reverse. Take the smaller quantity, three doiiirs. 1'uis will buy two hundred s:r,d eighty poun ds, or nearly a sa -U a.;d a half of a mixture ot acid nho- ph-.te ami co; ten seed meal (l,o00 pounds of the first to 500 pounds of the second,, an article equal t tlir best ammonhited goods on the mark et. Willi that am )uut of fertilizer app-ied to an acre of ordinary land, would there be cny diliiciiity in dou Viing the yieid. A ide and general experience authorizes the statement that thaie would not. "Now supposing cost of labor fr two aeres , and cost of labor ai d raauure for one acre, to be the same, and the yield in both cases the same, let us consider ih-i incidental advan tages attending the cultivation of the one acre. First, only half the horse t-oiver is needed, second half the plows, plow gear, ami bait the black - niit.!i' liill tli'tvl nml irrptnt all. more oppoi tunity is given the land to rest, to recuperate, to keep up its supj ly of humu. Auoiher and ui.iSi iu)i)o:tant advantages is, that the richest portions of the farm? tMoe most froH fiom stumps and other ol struetions thu-e least liable to wash , co-.dd-be selected for culti vation. Under tlie present exten sive system, which so generally pre vails, many acres, on nearly every farm, are planted which do not pay for the cost of cultivation. The profit which ought to come fiom the riciier la:.d 1- all a -so. bed in ti e ;S-es on th- poorer acres. A Chang;:- from the ext nsive U. the in t;n-ie s-ein is l up rjtively d -mandeei, but go j 1 -e-u-e Ml i $ iu jtrigmcnt must bo exercised in the matter, f he ciaiige must be made gradually. Poor lan 1 cannot be brought at once to hih state of fer tility aiifl at the same time keep the profits in excess of the cost. The tru3 method of proce lure is to begin with mod )r;.te applica ions of ma nure, and increase the" quantity each succeding yesr. at the same time in. creasing yearly the depth of soil and t!ie supply of humus. With a eleep soil and an ample supply of humus, land will bear an almost indefinite r- niount of maauring . We believe it f to le entirely practicable, if riht mrth(Kls are pursued, to make an average of one bale of cotton to the acre, instead ot, as at present, r,ne tlunl of a bale to the acre. But it cannot be done on soils devoid of liunous. Humi.s.i3, so to speak, the :reat balance-wheel to control the extremes of heat, and drought which prove so disastrous to our crops. Keep the land well supplied' with it, tfatlsor uid save all the manure pos sible at home, supplement it with the cheaper fertilizer, like acid phos phate and kainit, make great com post heaps, use the harrow and the ulky plough and the two-kors cul tivator , economize labor, and von will be on the high road to prosperi ty. At 1 a n t a Con stit ution. omi.i.m: oi' vaci's Jhil'ihnore Sun . Gen. iUcClelen, in a recently pub lished posthumous work, expresses t he opinion that tit? war was prose ccted bv Stant-.n and other lei le s at fF-shington in the interest 3f a particul ir politic.il party. The war itself, with the reconstruction policy that followed, was directed pi:ic:i cully, if not, openly, t the estah-lisli-ment of Republicaa supremacy. Its history has been written, Mr. Vance complains, on the assumption that the exigencies of a party were those of the Union itself, and that party tricks must be accepted as honest representations inspired by tin pur est potriotisni. lie gives special in tention to the attempt on tho part of Northern writers in dealing with the civil war to forestall history, and to impress upon all who took part in it on the Southern side the stigma of treason. The term "rebellion,"' still used by some persons to designate the war between the Scates. shows what confusion of ideas has thin been produced. '"All crimr," says Sena tor Vance, 'is to be found in crimi nal intent, and no Southern man bo lived he vf.s engaged in rebellion or treason." On the contrary, the South ern people, in common with leaders of opinion North and South, b.dieved that secession v:-s constitutional and richt. ''It wa. the universal under standing.'' says Mr. Vance. '-when the constitution was adopted, that whan a State deemed herself injured she had the right to withdraw." The Ma lison resolutions of 179S asserted this right and it was reasserted y Massachusetts in 1S03, when, upon the annexation of Louisiana, tint State threatened to act upon it,. Massachusetts agi.il , . several years later, asserted the right of secession at the Hartford CO.. veution. IUu the doctrine bee me w. 1 ngb uni versal when the: resolutions of 1793 were, incorporated in the political platform of the Democratic pair;, and were again and ajjaiu enumerat ed among its principles by Katio,.,.! conventions aad by the candidates who were elevated to the Pre .-id en cy by the votes of a majority of th& American people. The Southern people considered the doctrine es tablisLel and no couit has ever de cided that secession was treason. "There could have been no criminal intention," said, the lecturer, 'be cause there was no criminal know lele." It is therefore unfair and 1 Uatrulhful, Mr. Vance contends, to .. . n . . continue to speak of secession as treason ; "the question "was never lecidtel until it was decided by the war.'' A like error is involved, it was held, in the conimjn assertion that si irery was the cause of! be war' of which it was on the oe cassiitn, the real cause being the at tempt of the federal government to control the internal .affairs of the States r allure to resit interference whith Sjavery would have pie chid- d resistance to anything else what ever, thusm-aking an ead oi htaie -"ov- .... ..,,.'

The Southern States were not less forward than tlu North in bringing about the suspension of the slave trade, "so that on both subjects, secession anl slavery, New Eag. land is not in a condition to throw stones at anyboely else." I'urfkboro Headlight. Nothing is so npparentt o the in t el -ligent observer of modern society as the many deceptions and the fals? glitter which it contains. There are social circles into which one m ay enter where the fals 3 and deceptive find no place, but these are in the minority. Glance a t the average society of to-day, and there is bid little in it that is really what one supposes it to be. J low often is it that we see men and women carry ing impressions of wealth and sta tion far beyond their real inconi1. Dignity is often found to the only pre tension, retirement an artificial gloss and intelligence but a verbal dis play White satin dresses are worn where the plainest muslin is scarcely wiilrn the wearer's income; broad- j cloth, were the simplest business suit if honestly paiel for would almost be a draft npm tlie revenue receiv ed. Flowers are worn in profusion, jewelry loaned, and carriages hired by those to whom ths acquirement of the necessities of daily life in a strusg'e. Society, instead of being made a gre t ceiupact elesincd to promote the good of man and wo man, is used only as a cunning con trivance to palm off unreal virtue?, and give to the uiisophutieated wrorg and injurious imprcssions. Host an 1 hostess share in the gener al deception with their guests. Al though neither V conscious of t br other's deceit. Th-3 china on the ta bic is admired and its possession envied by iier guest, while the form er in return is driven to a in:.ddcn ing inwarel jca!cuy at the gorgeous garments of her guests. The guest knews r.ot that the china ii loaned, the hostess is ignorantof the urpaiel bill of Uie dressmr.ker. The furni ture is examined with admiration and so fixe 1 becomes the attention of LI e auest upon the embellish ments of the- honae of hr hostess that no rojm is l?fi in the miud fr a suspi ioa of a dan of purchase commonly known as the "Install -ment."

What man would expect to succeed in business if he were ae customed to tike, while at work, even ve;y slight whiff of ether, chloroform or laughing gas, and keep himself all the time, rr.ore or less, under such beclouding influ ences? Such a man, even if able to preserve his health, would grow reckless, loqaacious, and soin prove no match for a clear-headed rival. Liquor is an ir.elispensahSc ally wherever victims are systematically fiaec?d, and its effects are feea also in the rivalries of legitimate busi ness. Th professional gambler keeps a free bar. but never dri iks himsrdf when at the tabb; anel, while a sober, ciecr-headed, honorable mer chant, dealer or cpe.aio", would cot endeavor to ply his rival with liquor, he wenld gain great advan tages from the latter's s?lf-souglt indulgence. Liquor shows its vic tims not only in saloons and gam Ming dsns but about boards of trade and stock exchanges and in every line of bminss requiring a clear, cool head.
