The relatives of Captain Wirz, the Andersonvillo prison-koopor, not living in this vicinity, and being poor, no appli; ation has been mado as yet to have his body removed from (lie arsenal. Wo learn, lowever, that Mr. Schade, his counsel, is trying to make somo arrangements whereby tho necessary funds for tho removal of tho body to a Ohrie tiau cemetery may bo obtained. Captain Wirz's widow lives in Trigg County, Kentucky, with ono child by her union with him, and two by a former husband. A daughter of Captain Wirz by his first wife is, we hear, a governess in an English nobleman's family, and judging from her letters is an accomplished lady. She, as well as her family hore, have been constant ly urging Mr. Schade to soe that the body of Captaiu Wirz should receive Christian burial." CHARLESTONT TUESDAY MORNING, FEBRUARY 16, 1869. Al ext l ear. JflP There are signs on the wharves and in the streets and at the railroad depots that there ie to be this year a large crop of cot ton. The warehouses and storerooms arc piled up high with guanos, superphosphates and fertilizers pf every description, and the railroads aro fairly stnggering under the load of their uuaavory fertilizer busi ness. Every farmer and planter has been encouraged by the results of the opera tions of the year. Wherever the caterpil lar did not make its appearance, the plan ters have made money, and the net profit on the cotton crop of South Carolina, now in the pockets of the producers, would be more than enough to pay off our wholo State debt of five million of dollars. This is making a good beginuing-the better be cause our people had almost made up our minds that they were undone to all eter nity, aud the Mtcawbers of the Stato had i well-nigh oeased to hope that something would turn up. What we have made will be taken care of, not wasted. There is abundant proof of thia in the way that the farmers are going to work. Free negro labor is not yet reliable. It is the best that wc have-all that we have; but the aim of the planter now is to econo- j reize labor by limiting the area in cultiva tion and to give the freedmen such money wages or share iu the profits of thc crop as will enable him to reject all but the best hands. There is no desire to rush headlong from one extreme to the other, and cultivate fifty acres instead of five thousand. Nor is there any idea of doub ling i cultivation because cotton ha! nty-eight and thirty centsi phvn in to i'll the land, thoroughly ant to increase tho crop by the free use of fer} til ir ev . not hy .adding to the number of acres to be handled during the season. The wisdom of this policy is very evi dent. It cost* no more to cultiv te five hundred acres, which will produoo two bales to the acre, than the same area which will produce one bale or half a bale to the aore. The only additional cost of any con sequence is that of tho fertilizers that may be used, and this is as nothing in compari son with the increase of the crop. Last year the quantify of fertilizers used in this State was very small; but this year it prom ises to be larger than in any year since or before the war. The people have the money. They know how well it pays to invest that money in fertilizing material; and we may look forward to producing in this State, with average seasons, at least 250,000 or 300,000 bales of cotton, to be sent to market in the spring of 1S70. And there will be no commensurate increase in the cost of production. If, as we believe, tho increase in the crop should be entirely due.to improved cultivation and a plente ous use of fertilizers, the net profits will be enormously large. With cotton at twon ty cents, an increase of fifty thousand bales obtained in this manner should be an addi tion of at least three and a half millions of dollars to the net income of the State. This is what we are driving at. We are working, not for an increased aoreage, not for a breaking up of new ground, not for a headlong plunge into huge farming ope rations, but to oultivate thoroughly every rood of land, and to encourage, strengthen and quicken the soil, so as to obtain from enc acre - the ordinary product of two. Thia can be done, and, if thcro be any vir tue in industry and economy, coupled with a liberal use of the whole brood of f rtil-, izers, the crop of this year will assuredly tell the tale. A Bold Selieme. A correspondent of the Macon Telegraph ?suggests the construction of a oanal, to con nect the waters of the Mississippi with the Atlantic ocean, by tho following route : ''Tapping tho Tennessee at Gunter's Land "ing, in Marshall County, Ata., and run "ning from thence to Center, in Cherokee County, Ala., along tho banks of the Coosa and Etowah to a point in Cherokee County, "Ga., due north of Aoworth, from there to the Chattahoochee, crossing at Roswell, thence to Sweet Water in Gwinnett Coun ty, on the head waters of the Yellow River, down the le ft bank of the Yellow River to the Oomulgee, down ita left bank to a point a few miles south of Taversville, in Twigg Coun ty, from there southwest to a prong of the Little Oomulgee in Pulaski County, and down itc. left bank to its junction with the "Oomulgee, where," says the writer, "un "interrupted navigation will be found, and "an outlet to the oe ea tx at Savannah or "Brunswiok, would give a distance of not mers than two hundred and ninety miles " The writer estimates that the' oanal could be constructed at a cost of not more than $5,000,000, sd that it would, at a toll of eleven arid a quarter enta per ton on freight, pay twelve and a half per cent, om the in vestment , Wants.
