FRIDAY MORNING, FEB'Y. 23, 18G6.
Corn and Cotton.
We commend to our readers the follow
ing well-timed suggestions of the Augusta
(Ga.) Constitutionalist:
. Many of our planters, if not the greater
portion, "allured by the high prices of cot
ton, are about to give their chief attention
to the culture of this staple, ignoring, to a
considerable degree, or wholly, the produc
tion'of cereals. We cannot but deem this
course unwise. It will not do, in the ex
perimental era in which we find ourselves,
to count loo confidently upon a certain
yield of cotton.- Many conditions conspire
to bring success in. this kind of culture,
and many conspire to insure disastrous fail
ure. Labor may be. delinquent when most
imperative viz: when the grass is rank in
the field and then the crop is doomed.
The seasons may not be propitious, and
worms may sally forth like guerillas, blight
ing whatever they touch. It is just as well
to prepare against any evil contingency,
rather than take a gambler's hazard of for
tuitous results. We are strongly of the
opinion that while a due portion of each
planter's land should be given to cotton, an
equally judicious apportionment should be
Bet aside for corn. If but a small crop of
corq is raised in the South, we gravely ap
prehend paitial famine in 1867. Many de
pend upon the west for corn in exchange
for their cotton, but should the cotton be
6hort, how shall they be enabled to pur
chase breadstuffs ? Speculators control
the corn as well as other markets, and we
'..not hope for succor from them any
v--'Mn our ability to pay. Miserable
nijrett,e if such be the
case " Mch e dne s 3 f this
condition will bevo-r
tion that we will LaJ-o-.. , wJi
our grasping selves. Fervently do we pray
that such a consummation will never come,
but its very possibility should make us
wise in time for preparation. We are in a
"bad streak of luck," and famine may be
in the calendar of our future trials, if we do
pothedv. We call upon our worthy plan
ters to ponder this suggestion and act upon
it, if it be deserving of consideration. We
know that many of them hold similar opin
ions, and trust that all will be guided by a
spirit of justice justice to themselves and
justice to those dependent on them for
supplies.
The First Baby.
1 have one of those interesting animals at
my house. It came when it rained like all
blazes, dark as pitch, and my umbrella up
town, no cars runnin- The doctor lived
five miles due " Td the nurse six miles
due east; and when I got home to the bosom
of my family the condensed milkman va3 at
the door. Its a funny little chip, that baby;
Solferino color, and the lengtli of a Bologna
sausage. Cross? I guess. not. . Dm, um;
it commenced, chasing me down the path
way of life just when muslin, linen, white
ilannel fcc, were the highest they had been
since Adam built a hen house for Mrs. Eve's
chickens. Doctors charge two dollars a
squint, four dollars a grunt, and on account
of the scarcity of rain in the country, take
what is left in a man's pocket, no discount
for cash, and send bill for balance Jan'y 1st.
A queer little .thing . is that, baby; a speck
of a nose like a wart; head as bald as any
squash, and no place to hitch a waterfall; a
mouth just suited t come the gum gams
and chew milk. O crackee! yoil shou'd
hear her sing.
1 have bumped it, stuffed my fur cap
down its-. throat, given it the smoothing
irons to play with; but that little red lump
that looks as if it couldn't hold blood suCi
cient to keep a musquito from fainting per
sists in yelling like thunder. It shows a
great desire to -6 vallow ilb fis'.s, aud the
other dy they dropped down its throat,
and all that prevented their going clean
through was the crook in its elbows. It
stopped its music, and I was happy for one
and a half minutes. It's a pleasant thing
to have a baby in the house one of your
colicky kind. Think of the pleasures of
a father, in dishabille, shivering in the mid
night hour, with his warm feet on a square
yard of cold oil cloth, dropping paregoric
in a teaspoon, by moonlight, the nurse
thumping at the door, wife ot your bopom
shouting hurry, and the baby yelling till the
fresco, dropps from the ceiling, It's a nice
time to think of dress ccts, pants, fancy
ties and white kids. "S-h-a-d-e-s" of de
parted cocktails and "sunshine" coblers!
what comfort, what a picture for an article
in Plaster Paris, or a specimen on Pearl in
oil colors for an "Elite gallery."
Its mother sava the darling is troubled
witb wind on the stomach; it beat3 all the
wind instruments you ever heard of. I
have to get up in the cold and shiver till
the milk warms; it uses the bottle. I have
a cradle with the representation oi a mirac
ulous soothing syrup bottle on the dash
board. I tried to stop its breath the other
night; it was no go; I rocked it so hard I
missed stays, and sent it slap across the
room upsetting a jar of milk and a bucket of
yeast. It didn't make any noise then! Oh!
no! We did't have milk, or hot rolls, or
butter for breakfast, either. Its mother
says only wait till it gets bleached, (it's
been vacinated,) and old enough to crawl
about and feed on pins. Yes, I am going
to wait. Won't it be delightful? John, run
for the doctor, sis has fell in a slop-pail and
is choking with a potato skin; sis has fell
down stairs; sis has swallowed the tack
hammer; bud shows signs of the mumps,
measles, croop, hooping-cough, small-pox,
Cilic, dysentery7cholera infantum, or some
other darn thing to let the doctor take all
the money laid by for my next winter's ba
con. And all this comes of my champooing
and curling my hair, wearingbnice clothes
and looking handsome, going a courting
and making my wife fall in love with and
marry me.
The Contrast.
Bolow we give a specimen of the lies that
abotitionists North are flooding the country
with. Does not every intelligent man know
the statement below to be lalae end ma
licious ? The Cincinnati Commercial says:
"Gen. C. B Fisk made a speech before
the Western Freedmen's Aid Commission
last evening, in the course of which he re
lated the following incident: A few weeks
ago,' said Gen. Fisk, 'there came into my
headquarters at Nashville, a Tennessee-
lady, elegantly attired in silk and velvet, to
talk with us, as she said. I gave her a seat.
She took it with 'an air,' and told me she
wanted to recover her property seized by
the Government. She abused it heartily,
and read me a lecture on Yankees and Abo
litionists, and execrated them for killing her
husband in battle, for he had only gone
with the South to fight for its rights. I
gave her the circular to read, which con
tains the conditions of the Government for
claimants to comply with. ' She asked me
to read it for her. I told her I had no
lime; that she had better do it herself, and
then fill up the 'blanks' provided to prove
the legitimacy of har claims. She then ad
mitted that she could neither read nor write.
"I own that while I pitied her, I felt a
little mischievous; so I pointed to a young
QA clerk (once a slave in the far South),
"""""h.er --s Tt-ould write out the docu-
asted
me wuu sharp b'eba.fc. . .2't
nigger write?' 'Yes, luada'm,' I said;
and ho will attend to the business for you.'
With some reluctance, she went to his desk.
He arose, bowed, and gave her a seat, and
made out in a fine round hand the neces
sary statement, and then read it for her.
It was then offered for her signature; but,
when she drew off her glove, and I saw a
splendid diamond sparkle on her finger as
she made her 'mark,' I pitied her from my
heart, for the superiority, and real superi
ority, ot the negro was seen in the simple
transaction.
" The poor woman perhap3 felt it then
herself; for she wept, came to her senses,
regretted her harsh remarks about the 'nig
ger, and went away with ideas more be
coming a reconstructed woman than when
she came."
