Th? Carpet Bagger.
Air-" Joe Bomera."
BY JACK CASS.
I am a carpet bagger
I've a brother, scalawag
Come South to boast and'swagger
With an empty carpet bag;
To rob the whites of greenbacks,
And with thc blacks to " bunk,"
And chango my empty satchel
For a full ?uie leather trunk.
I'm i; some" ou "Constitution.-"
For a .. late rcbellb us State,"
Aud I'm " tome" on persecutions
Of dislny.il men I hate ;
I'm "some" at nigger meetings
When whit* folks ain't about,
; And ""soino" ^mong the nigger gals,
When their marms don't know they're out.
I'm " ?oeoe" ou a Convention,
Where I draw an " X" per day,
And opposed to all adjournments,
If I only draw my pay.
I drew it down at Jackson,
Where four months I kept my scat,
And I laid a heavy tax on
All you wear and drink and out.
But now my day is over,
The Constitution's killed ;
Again I am a rover,
And my pockets are not CUcJ ;
All my money, has hcen sp-^nt on
AnViei'tioncbrlng "bum"
Farewell to Mississippi
O, "I icith I waa ter limn J"
A Strtigglc ia the Dark.
A Heavy gale was blowing from the
southwest; furiously tossing the hroad wa
ters of the Pacific, and driving the foam
?ti misty fUkes over the crests of the roar
ing waves.
Tiie moon occasionally emerging from
behind thc clouds rolling in torn niasses
ovt'.r the sKy, would for a moment light
the vast wilderness of the ocean ; reveal
ing the summits of the towering seas and
faintly lighting the watery caverns be
tween.
Our ship-the St. Mark-rolled heavi
ly as she boomed upon her way under
close reefed topsails and topmast staysail.
Fore and aft her timbers groaned like
dying-men, vvhiie her three tail masts,
jerkingmid straining, seemed on the point
of going by th? board.
Crouching behind lue windlass to es
cape a drenching sea, that suddenly burst
pver-liie weather bulwarks, I found my
self by the side of Acb.uk-a tall, supple
native, with shouklersand breast as broad
as those of a lion, and long, llexible arms,
the latter of which did me gnod service
on the present occasion ; for had not the
owuer -thrown them around my body, 1
should certainly have been swVpt- over
board.
, " A thousand thanks !" I gratefully ex
claimed, when the danger was past. " You
have saved my life I"
" Yes," answered the Malay-for such
he was-"me have saved your life, but
me quick take him if you no promise to
say nothing of the man whose head me
break with cooper's hammer!"
" What !" I gasped, staring upon him
with amazement. " What do you mean ?
You are jesting !"
The eyes of the native flashed like those
of a, serpent. I could see his white teeth
gleaming in thc darkness like a dotted
chalk Une on a blackboard.
** Yes, mc jest," he exclaimed, laugh
ing, but it struck me that the laugh was
somewhat forced--" me only make fun ;
so rae will say no more about it."
He clutched my arm as he spoke, and
peering into my face with his black eyes,
probably read there the sudden s tspicion
which his singular manner had really ex
cited in my mind.
"Ah!" he almost shrieked, cinching
me by the throat. " Promise-promise
you no say a word about de murder and
me let you go. If not, I serve you de
same way, and then throw you over
board, too !"
" Achok," I calmly answered, pushing
his hand from my throat, " you know me
too well to hope to get a promise foin
mc my means of a threat. I knew noth
ing, and now only have your words for it,
of your having killed your enemy, the
Kanaka, and-" .
" An ! how you know who, if you not
sec mc do it? How you know it was the
Kanaka that mc kill V
"I conclude so from yourhaving fought
with him yesterday in the forecastle and
his having beat-"
" He never beat me-s'spose my foot
not have slipped!" interrupted Achok,
grinding his teeth. " He strike me many
times while me down ; and me swear rr,e
take his life. Well, now so much having
been said, me may as well say all. Me
have taken his life. Me struck him down
with cooper's hammer and throw his body
overboard, just before you come behind
tho windlass."
" I thought I heard a groan as I came
forward," I answered, " but I supposed 1
might have been mistaken. This is
horrible, Achok, perfectly horrible ; and
M Promise ! Promise, you !" he inter
rupted, impatiently. " Me have saved
your life, and so you should be willing
not to get tye hanged."
Before I could" reply, however, he seem
ed to have concluded to act according to
the adage that "dead men tell no tales,"
for he again grasped mo by the throat,
and, raising his knife, would certainly
have plunged it into 'my bosom if 1 had
not knocked it from his grasp by a heavy
blow upon his wrist.
A desperate struggle now ensued be
tween us, aud, as he was the stronger
party, he soon contrive 1 to hurl me upon
my back. Putting both knees upon my
breast, he clasped my throat with his
skinny hands, and I believed my doom
was sealed. The horrible pains of suffo
cation were beginning to reach my throat
and brain, when a sudden roll" of thc ship
caused my tormentor to fill upon his side.
With a powerful exertion ? contrived to
lousen myself from his clasp, and I then
sprang to loy feet.
Quick-as lighting his arms were now
thrown around me from behind, and, in
spite of all resistance "on my part, I was
borne to the lee bulwarks. With his
wonderful strength he lifted me as 1
might have lifted a-child, and 'to my hor
ror I found myself suspended over the
bolting, foaming cajjl .iron of water that
raged alongside of the careening ship. I
shouted for help, but my shipmates, un
fortunately, were in the after part of the
vessel, and. could not hear my voice above
the din'of the storm.
" Now, then," yelled the native, " away
you go-cursed white mau! "Dead 1
men tell no tales !: "
He let me go as bespoke, but I clutch- '
at a rope that hung over the bulwarks,
and notwithstanding .his efforts to shake
me from it, I clung'to it with a tenancity
natural under the circumstances. (
The Ma'ay-fairly screamed with rage,
and sudder.iy I saw a cl?sp-knife gleam- j,
ing in his hand. He raised it above the i
rope, and my heart sank within nae. I j,
i
could not mistake his fiendish intention IJ
of cutting the strands.
" I will die like a man !" I muttered :
"and may God take care of my wife and r
children!" ,
But, even as I spoke, the ship rolled
her bulwarks under! and the Malay who
had incautiously leaner over them while
holding his knife suspended, fell headloug
into the dark, stormy waters, ano,was
carried, shrieking, far away from the
ship, to leeward.
Seizing the mil, I regained the deck,
and hastening afr, I related my. story to
my shipmates, whose sistonismeht may
be imagined, and who united in congratu
lating me upon my escape.
.. 1 never liked the looks\.of that Ma
lay," said an old tar ; " and though I ain't
in the habit of speaking disrespectfully of
the dead, its my opinion that the. chap
has met with his just deserts for murder
ing the Kanaka.''
Elopement Extraordinary.
" Burleigh," the New York correspon
dent of tin*. Boston Journal, tells the fol
lowing story :
Not far far from where'I write, one of
the hiost extraordinary elopements has.
takeri phic?. with a most- tragical sequel.'
A merchant of standing and^veath had a
family eoiTsjsring of his wife and several
children*. The-Jadead-great personal
beauty, was very accomplished and intel
ligent, a capital housekeeper* and earnest
Chtistiajfr and* greatly devoted .to 'her
family. ..' Not,, ?ar from her residence lived
a lady of twenty-three summers, 'tall,
coarse featured^ and as unattractive as
could bc imagined. Her mother was dead,
and she kept house for her father. The
visits of tho merchant to ibis house'at
tracted considerable attention. It was
known, however, that the father "vas gen
erally present at the visits "of "the mer '
chant, and the community was generally
divided about the matter.- Riding and
walking Succeeded, and the scandal be
came general.
On Monday morning the merchant in
formed his \vife that he was going to leave
-that ho was going to sail for California,
and take thc girl with him. Her father,
he said, had given Iiis consent, and agreed
to keep the thing secret till after his.de
part ure. He told her that no. power
could prevent his leaving. Il she kept
quiet until after he was gone he would
give her the house in which she lived and
two thousand dollars in money. If she
did not, he would go all the same, but
would leave her penniless. He asked
her to fix his linen and pack his trunk,
and, have it ready by Thursday mornihg,*
all of which she agreed to do. fie bought
a trunk for the girl, and gave her two
hundred dollars for her outfit. sOn Thurs
day morning he left his home. While
his hand was on the door-latch his wife
told him she should remain just where
she was and take care' of the children,
and if at any time he wished to come
back, the door would be open to him.
ile went over lo the house where the
young woman was in waiting, lie gave
her father some money, and he accom
panied the parties to the cars. On their
way down the father referred to some
expenses he had incured in giving his
daughter music lessons. The merchant
handed Iii in two hundred dollars, which
hj pronounced satisfactory. After the
train had started, the old man told the
story of the elopement. When some
one remarked to him that the merchant
would desert bis daughter as he had his
wife, he said that it was impossible, for
he had never seen such love between two
persons before. When he was asked why
he did not put a stop to a step that could
only be fraught with misery to all side.-,
he said that his daughter, when she told
him of her intended journey, showed him
a bottle of poison, and said if he opened
his head on the mat:cr matter till afror
she was gone she would poison him and
herself too. And she would have done
it, he said.
The sequel to thia adair is more than
usually tragical. The parties sailed im
mediately for California, and for some
reason not explaiued, took th-* return ves
sel back to New York. They landed in
the city, where the girl was left at a hotel,
penniless." She succeeded in reaching thi>
place, deserted, aud sent immediately for
her father, who visited her at the hotel.
She agreed to ?0' home with him in the
morning. He called for her at the time
agreed upon. Ile found her a corpse.
.She had committed suicide during the
night, in the meantime*- the merchant
had not been heard from after deserting
the girl at the hotel. Ten davs a<-o he
appeared at the door of his own house.
True to her promise, and true to her wo
manly love, the wife threw the doors
wide open and bade him welcome. Hid
den from the eye of his neighbors and
friends, he remains in-doors.
An old gentleman whose style was
Germanized was asked what he thought
of signs and omens.
" VclJ, I don't dinks mooch of dem
dings, undi don't pelieve avery dings; but
I dells you somedimes dere is somedings

" Veli, I don't dinks mooch of dem

" Und den I gets oop mit mineseif und

A conductor on a Connecticut railroad
passed free a poor penniless chap recently.
An officer of the road in the same car
called him to account. " I pass him,"
said the man of tickets, "because he's a
conductor on the-railroad." " He a
conductor ! Why, what, makes him dress
so shabbily V 11 Oh, he's trying to live
on his salary," was the quick reply.
A maiden lady has sailed from New
York to Paris with a lapdog, in order to ?
consult a physician there touching her :
pet's health. The dog is sixteen years :
old. The lady desires that he may*g!ive
until he is twenty-five. He has bronchitis i
and A cough. 11

Home Alade and Commercial Ma
nurest
In the last number of the Cultiv?t?
wc expressed our belief in the profitabl
ness of saving all the manure possible c
the farra, basing that belief upon expe]
ence in various parts of the world, ar
upon calculations of the cost of far
yard manure as contrasted with that
other kinds. The problem is a perfect
simple one-with ?100 in hand, bo be i
vested in manures, shall the farmer e
pend it in commercial fertilizers, or
the labor and appliances necessary :
make barnyard manure'{ The quanti I
of whar, is ordinarily termed good m
nure, that can b*e made on a farm, is d
pendent, of course, upon the number
animals and the supply of food for ther
To a certain point, then, on each farm, i
determined by the above conditions, it
profitable to expend nionoy for manu:
making-beyond that point it would ni
be. If it required just $100 to reat
this limit, ou any farm, we should nc
for a moment, hesitate to spend it in m
king barnyard manure, in preference
.buying guano, ?sc. But suppose tl
amount of manure made, is inadequate I
bring the farmer's lands up to the degn
of fertility desired. By devoting a la
ger number of acres to forage plants ar
pastures, he. might increase his stock an
thus increase manure-and- by spreadir
the ashes derived from wood grown c
another portion of the farm devoted t
forest, he might, for a while, on the prii
ciple of robbing Peter to pay Paul, kee
up and even increase the fertility of tr.
cultivated portion. But, as certain el?
ments of crops are continually remove
from and therefore lost to the farm, b
sale of produce and by excrement droppe
on roads, &c, ?fee, it is obvious that, m
less the soil is inexhaustibly rich, the ai
nual loss, alluded to above, will finall
exhaust and impoverish the farm-th
time varying with the original fertility (
the soil, and the greater or smaller quat
tity of land devoted to pasture and fores
In other words, supposing all the exen
ments of every kind, solid or liquic
which possibly, could be saved, and th
straw, eec, returned back to the lane
still there would be constant deplctio
arising from thc elements taken away i
the crops sold-greater in the case c
some crops than others, in wheat for ii
stance, than in cotton. ?\s a genera
pioposition, therefore, it is true that
farmer cannot, for an indefinite period c
time, maintain, much less increase, th
original fertility of the soil by hom
. made manures, unless, as in the case o
the Chinese, there is no export of prc
duce to foreign countries, and all the ex
er.-menls, from food, furnished to citj
populations from the country, is sent bael
again to the farm. The waste of fertili
zing substances is, at present, aiid proper
ly too, attracting much more attentior
:han it formerly did. Our readers an
probable aware that the disiinguisbec
chemist, Liebig, is, at present, engaged ir
superintending the saving and prepara
lion of manure, from the sewers of L-m
don. Until, however, the Chinese system
is fully carried out, in this country, and
the export of products is stopped, or off
set by the import of foreign products con
taining an equivalent amount of fertilizing!
ingredients, all the home made manure,
that we can possibly ma=?e, will not pre
vent an annual decrease in the fertility ol
mir lands, unless restored, by the pro
ducts of the ocean,.in some form orother.
One spot may be made and kept rich at
the expense of others, as in the neighbor
hood, of cities, where the food of man
and'beast is drawn from the area of a
eircle of ten or more miles in diameter,
and the excrement, derived from said food,
is applied to the land, in a circle whose
area is two or three miles-but what one
gains another loses. The fact that con
fronts ns, more immediately at preser
is that, in the larger portions of our Spinn
ern country, the lands are already poor
as a general thing, too poor to reward the
farmer for the expense of cultivation ; foo
poor to raise enough grain and forage to
enable the farmer to keep the stock ne
cessary to make large quantities of farm
yard manure. We admit, fully, that the
absence of grasses, clover, ?fee, in our ro
tations, has reduced the amount of stock
and consequently, the amount of home
made manure, below the proper point,
but, after making allowance for this, the
great truth still remains, that land, which
is already poor, cannot be made rich by
manuring it with all the excrements of
man and beast, fed upon the-products of
hat land. To use a homely, but expres
sive phrase, the ease is that of thc man
who attempt's to lift himself up by his
boots-^-he may pull up one foot, but both
will not come. So the farmer, when his
surface soil is exhausted, may, by deep
rooted plants.Jike clover, ?fee, bring up
elements from the subsoil and place them
near the surface, and thus apparently re
store its fertility, but, if this is repeated,
the subsoil soon yields up all of its store.
Certain elements derived, in the first
place, from the atmosphere, may become
exhausted sooner than the mineral ingre
dients of the soil, and a judicious rotation
and turning in of green crops may restore
the former and bring the land back to
something of its previous fertility, but
cannot possibly carry it beyond the orig
inal starting point-and in both of the
cases supposed, if there is an export of
tho products, of the farm, the elements of
thc subsoil, in the first, and the mineral
substances in the second, are gradually
sent off and the land finally consigned to
utter sterility. To increase, permanent
ly, the fertility of our lands, viewing the
country as a ?vhole, we must import fer
tilizers from abroad. But, as imports in
volve exports, and exports carry abroad
the clements of our soils, the discussion
turns next upon so managing these, as
that our gains shall exceed our losses.
This aspect of the question we ^jnay pre
sent in a future number.

Draining Lauds.
EOITORS SOUTHERN* CULTIVATOR :-In \
my opinion, the most productive lands :
are as yet uncultivated, and until there is
more attention given to drainage, but
hilf will be accomplished. I may with* ;
safety assert, that tho lowest lands, when J
properly drained, are by far the most pro
ductive. Yet, through the majority of the \
Southern States, you see the most of the c
low lands uncultivated. Occasionally you ?
see open drains, which, generally speak- ;
ing, are worse than no drains at all, for
what little virtue there remains in the f
soil, is carried away by heavy rains, and
lost as a fertilizer, besides frequently pro- ?
ducing gullies and ravines, that are neith- v
er useful nor ornamental. Some may 11
say in answer, that it is too expensive to
the planter to drain thoroughly. True, f(
it is expensive-so Is manuring expen
sive-yet do we not see a profitable re
turn the, first season ? It is so with drain- -
age. Our clay sub-soil needs drainage,
to save our soil, from washing. Heavy .
rains are 60 frequent, that unless the.sur- ej
plus water is carried away by an under- -
?rain, it must necessarily wash the loose fi,
upper soil, The u Mole Drain" is by far '
he cheapest, and in my opinion, the best
dapted to our sub-soil. It is not so ex
ensive as to be beyond the reach of eve
y planter. In the North Western States,
uch drains, before the war, cost only 12-V
ts. per rod. Should any of your cor
espondents desire further information,
ipon the subject, I shall take pleasure in
;iving them such information as may be
lesired. "G. M. TAUOR.

The Rutabaga Turnip,
Some of our best farmers annually put
n an acre or two of Ruta Bagas, and thus
ay up for winter a supply of good suc
culent food that comes into use when they
ire obliged in a great measure to depend
ipon dry food only. When the bigas are
ihopped up and sprinkled with a little
;orn meal or bran, they are eaten eager
y by cows and steers, and are not only
?ttening and milk-producing but extreme
y wholesome. They are raised as'easily
is a crop of ordinary turnips in drill:
rhe ground must be well-prepared and
nanurcd deeply, Ihe rows str?ck' about
thirty inches apart ancLthe seed drilled
in. When up two or three inches the
slants should be thinned out removing
;be weakest, to four or five inches "apart,
nid thoroughly cleared of weeds. The
cultivator should be passed through once
)r twice carefully. In three or four weeks
nore another thinning out should take
"dace allowing the plants to stand from
3 to 10 inches apart. The hoe should be
reely used between the plants and the
cultivator between the rows. Frequent
.tirr'mg of the ground is indispensable in
:hc production of a large crop.. They
ire not removed from the ground beTore
November. We have known eight hun
Jred bushels to be raised lo the acre and
have heard of twelve hundred.
The seed should be put in the ground
from the 15th June to the 1st August.
A sod broken up the previous autumn is
perhaps the best for this crop.-German
town Telegraph.
A certain editor gives his opinion in
the following terms : ,s A talkative woman
is one of the most agreeable companions
in the world-the soul of society. We
like to hear a sprightly woman talk so in
cessantly that you can't get a word in
edgeways. It?r?es you from embarrass
ment, promotes sociability, and sive you
iieart to slip in a soft saying or so, when
ever such a thing is possible; whereas
silence is a bore not to be endured, breed
ng awkward embarrassment and re
straints. Give us a woman who knows
low to talk."
