AGRICULTURAL.
The Oat Crop.
The irfscnt -and .prosp'.'etivc price of cotton
is welt 'calculated to produce reflection on
the part of those planters who have blindly
staked everything on the cotton crop.
They have their fertilizers to pay for, and
most of them a heavy bill for provisions to
loot. Have they pursued a true agricultu
ral economy? HI they repeat during the
next year, the error of the past ? Many no
ilonbt will, but many others will seek to
diversify their agriculture. A good begin
ning in this course of repentance will be the
sowing of a good breadth of land in oats.
Many have already taken this wise precau
tion. We advise those who have not done
o to make the necessary arrangements for
flowing in February. Take an old piece
4of com ground, chop down the stalks and
bum them. Broadcast cotton need, taking
care to put the greatest amount on the poor
Vst Kpots, so as to .produce a crop as nearly
uniform in quality as may be practicable,
lireak up the land, and then sow good heavy
oats -at the rate of one bushel per acre.
Harrow these in. If the land is cloddy the
roller should be used to break up and pul
verize the clods. A four feet section of a
round tree about 18 inches in diameter with
Yohfid iron Kpikes driven in at the centre of
each end lor an axle, will answer very well
for u roller. Carolina Juiruur.
January Thoughts.
With this month begins -the Xew Year of
'our times. It is named from the Uoman
diety Janus, which means, look behind and
before. The lioman Year originally began
in March, but in the time of Xurna l'om
.philia B. 0. G72, there were two months,
January and February added to the year;
making the beginning, instead of March,
January.
This month should be spent the most part
in reflection looking behind and before.
We make no apology for our frequent re
ference to the social elements of the house
hold, for on the 'proper appreciation of
these, depends the good of the garden and
yank
Look back. What has been our expenses
and our income for the last year. For this
year our expenses must be reduced if they
were larger than our income last. To be
strictly honest, this calculation must be
made. We must spend less or no more than
we make.
Have we accounts or obligations that
were to be met at the end of the year? If
so, see after them. Have we a borrowed
hook or umbrella in our possession-? If so,
return it. With us it is expected that we
-all settle accounts at the end of the year.
If we fail in the least of these things, in the
meeting of an obligation implied or express
ed, we violate the whole vow. "Fay thy
'debts." The difference in any case being in
the degree of embarrassment, it gives to the
-man to whom the debt is due. The man
who cares tor the law, is careful alike about
every obligation.
Look before. There is a vast future, a
'road to travel, a sea to navigate, a new work
to do. It needs that we think well on it,
both as to how it shall be with us and our
fellows. Has the past been for prolit to us
:and tolhcrn? If so, wherein ? If not, how?
Let it in no wise happen, that our iniquities
shall fall on our children or our friends. It
inUy be in this wise, if we be not thoughtful
of very right for it has in the past happened
so, that we may buy, hoping to pay, and ex
pecting to, but it so turns that our hopes are
lbla)ited, our speculations fail and our obliga-
Hihiis can't be met by us, ami have to be
met by some kind friend who has gone surety
for us ami who has taken all the risk, with
out the least expectation of gain. While
Ve in many cases, all expectation of gain
:aud nothing to loose. In the future ask of
no man such a favor.
Let us plant for a bad crop, and then do
Vmr best to make a good one.
In entering on the new year, let us so set
out, us far as in us lies, that if we go down
on the way, the family and friends left be
hind shall not be tin1 worse that we lived,
and that we he ready to take up the journey
in another and better world.
Let us live rather as to our own duty and
'means than as to the course of our neighbor.
Be careful alike to work the six days and
rest the seventh.
kJut doors we can't do much. Continue
fpruiiing and transplanting trees, anil vines,
making compost and draining.
We may 'plant beans, radish, asparagus,
garden peas, cabbage, beets, onions, lettuce.
We may, by planting thus early, have an
burlier crop. Our people usually do their
'planting of this season between the Christ
mases. l:.con$trwti'd lutt'mtr.

It Never Pays.
It never pays to fret and growl
When fortune seems our foe;
The better bred will push ahead
And strike the braver blow,
For luck is work,
Ami those who shirk
Should not lament their doom,
J Jut yield the play,
And clear the way,
That better men hae room.
It never pays to wreck the health
In drudging after gain,
And he is sold who thinks that gold
Is cheapest bought with pain,
An humble lot,
A cosy cot.
Have tempted even Kings,
For station high,
That wealth wili buy,
Not oft contentment brings.
It never pays a blunt refrain
Well worthy of a song,
For age and youth must learn this truth,
That not hi rig pays that's wrong,
The good and pure
Alone are sure
To bring prolonged success,
While what is right
In Heaven':
T 1 t

Is always sure to bless.

AYER'S SARSAPARILLA,
For Purifying the Blood.
1 he reputation this excel
lent medicine enjoys, is derived
from its cures, many of which
are truely marvellous. Inve
terate cases of Scrofulous dis
ease
where the system seemed j
saturated with corruption,
have been purified and cured
by it. Scrofulous affections
and disorders, which were ag
gravated by the scrofulous
contamination until they were painfully afflicted,
have been radically cured in such great numbers in
almost every si ction of the country, that the public
scarcely iK'ed t be informed of its virtues of uses.
Scrofulous poi ion is one of tin most destructive
enemies of our race. Often, this unseen and unfelt
tenant of the organism undermines the constitution,
invites the attack of enfeebling or fa till diseases,
without exciting a suspicion of its presence. Again,
it seems to breed infection throughout the body, and
then, on some favorable occasion, rapidly developed
into one or other of its hideous forms, either on the
surface or among the vitals. In the later, tubercles
may le suddenly deposited in the lungs or heart, or
tumors formed in the liver, or it shows its presence
! by eruptions on the skin, or foul ulcerations on
i some part of the bodv. Hence the occasional use
i of a bottle of this SARSAPARILLA is advisable,
: even when no active symptoms of disease appear.
, Persons afflicted with the following complaint gen-
; erally find immediate relief, and, at lenth, cure, bv j
the use of this SARPARILLA : St Anthony's Fire, '
Rose or Erysipelas, Tetter, Salt Rheum, Scafd Head,
! Ringworm, Sore Eyes, Sore Ears, and other erup- ;
tious or visible forms of Scrofulous disease. Also
i in the more concealed forms, as Dyspepsia, Dropsy, i
; Heart disease, Fits, Epilepsy, Neuralgia, and the j
; various Ulcerous a lit ct ions of the muscular and ner-
vous systems. j
! Syphilis or Venereal and Mercurial Diseases are j
, cured by it, though a long time is required for sub- i
; dueing these obstinate maladies by any medicine, j
But long continued use of this medicine will cure j
the complaint. Leucorrhna or Whites, Uterine
! Ulcerations, and Female Diseases, are cow m only '
soon relieved and untimately cured by its purifying 1
; and invigorating effect. Minute Directions" for j
i each csiM are given in our Almanac, supplied gratis, j
Rheumatism and Gout, when caused by aceiimuia- ,
; tious of extraneous matters in the blood," yUdd quick- ,
! ly to it, as also Liver Complaints, Torpidity, Con- I
I gestioii or Inflammation cf the liver, and Jaundice,
; when arising, as they often do, from the rankliair
poisions in the blood. This SARSAPARILLA is !
agmit rc-storer forthestrenghtand yi
tern. Those who are Iinqmd and Listless, Despon- 1
(tent, &lteptess, and troubled with Nervous Appre

ASTRAL OIL.
The only objection raised against Astral Oil is its
cost. Consider this for a moment. Oil is one of
the cheapest articles ot household expenses. An
ordinary family will burn say ten gallons per year. !
Astral Oil may cost 20 cents per gallon higher "than i
Kerosene. Jiere tuen is an additional expense of
12 per year, a little over half a cent per duv, and for
this small difference you are insured a clesir uniform
and beautiful light, together with the assurance of
perfect safety.
Is there danger in the use of Kerosene? Oil? If
so, and you can insure the perfect safety of your
family for two dollars a year, should the "small dif
ference in cost be considered ?
