Instead of finding great farmers on small furnis, we are too apt to find the very poorest kind of farmers on very large farms.

Farming is altogether a different business iu the present dav from what it was in the days of slavery. Then the brains of one man were employed to direct the muscles of fifty or Ave hundred, all under the most absolute control. Now a man has no property in anything but his own muscles, and tho muscles of a single man will spread over very few acres of land.

We are pained to hear that Charles Dullln, colored, theporter at Mr. Henry Frank's store, tiiet-wlth tin accident yesterday, by which his right leg was fractured near the ankle.

Dullln was unloading soine.goods from a dray, when he lost his footing on tho edge of the gutter and fell, pulling a bale of domestics down upon himself. He Is a most worthy colored mhn, and being well advanced in years, it Is probable that he will be laid up a long time from, his injuries. Foil some time past the Natchez, Jackson and Columbus railroad authorities huve been considerably annoyed at repeated attempts to wreck the trains upon its line, near Norton, and by persons stoning the passenger cars as they passed along, Some three or four separate attempts were made to throw the cars off the tracks by placing qbstruc-tions on the rails, and nt one time an obstruction was found on a bridge. Col. Frost, the ever watchful superintendent pf Jhe road, went to.

work to ferret out the wretches, and his effprts have finally been rewarded )y the capture of the would-be train-wreckers, who proved to be three small negro boys and a youth, also colored, of, nineteen. We know of no punishment too severe for these miscreants, for, had they succeeded in their designs there would doubtless have been much loss of life as well as of property. It was only the greatest watchfulness on the part of the railroad men that these boys were not successful in their nefarious efforts. Their yoiithfulness should not save them from a term in the penitentiary. Within the past few weeks some of the enterprising gentlemen of our city, seeing the lack of a suitable place of popular resort on the outskirts of tho city, where plcnios, evening parties, and other amusements of the kind could take place, put their heads together to supply the want.

The result has been the formation of a joint stock company, which has purchased some twelve or fifteen acres of the beautiful Marshall profit Is made, let It lie remembered, on all the laud upon the farms, including wood land, pasture land and old sedge field land, which, It Is well known, is by far. tho larger part of many farms. Now ono of two things is very siiro. Either tho lauds have been given in" to tho census taker at very reduced valuations, or the ownership of farms iu the State of Mississippi beats any other business in which tho people of the State can be enguged'. Willi property that will produce or even 08 per cent on Its vuliiutlon, it weuld bo a very improvident people indeed who would not grow rich.

Iu Massachusetts the farm lauds are valued nt $140,107,415, and their products for the year nt $24,100,881, 'or about KlJa per cent, on the amount invested. The contrast between the productiveness of farms in Massachusetts and iu Mississippi, 0j to 80, is very great, yet tho Massachusetts farmer, it is said, makes a very good living, and in many cases lays 1iy enough to give him a competence In his old age: This, comparison would, wo think, huve a tendency to make the Mississippi farmer examine closely Into what is wrong about their methods, und wily, with a profit of 80 per they can save nothing, whilst those of the same, occupation In Massachusetts make money when their products are' ouly 10j per cent, upon the vulHe of their forms. A careful Investigation of this subject by Mississippi farmers would doubtless lead to good results. The following, from the Vicksburg Post, will remind some of our older citizens of, an old-time resident, and, wo think, a native of this city: "In passing along the road Sunday afternoon, near Magnolia Hall, the headr quarters of Gen. Grant during the selge, some four miles fioin town, our reporter stumbled upon a shanty built nlongside the road, and evidently Inhabited.

Inspection revealed ah aged man named Wash. Green, a resident- of this county tor forty years, who is the solo occupant of this place, and he keeps a constant watch upon' several ciH-iously-shapcd boxes. Mr. Green proved communicative and interesting, so much so that he makes a very poor specimen of a hermit, while he certainly possesses a fund of varied Information concerning people and events of this county and State which cannot full to interest the listener. Ho cheerfully opened the boxes and revealed the most perfect ossified, remains, gf a mastodon we have ever seen.

The remains were first discovered in 18G8 by Mr Green, who hud occasion to dig a passage for drainage purposes, and from time to time has found additional remains, all of which form one of the finest collections of the kind extant. The old gentleman is iu love with his find, and lives near them always, though his fum-iyl arc iu comfortable circumstances nbout one mile distant. A visit to the exhibition and a chat on old times is a treat, as Mr. Green says that in Ids seventy-five years of life -he must be a natural fool if he has not learned The two brothers, Wasli and Tlios. Jeff Green were once in business here as saddlers.

Jeff Green was 'a natural orator and his speeches during the "Log Cabin" campaign in 1S10 were very effective. He possessed an inexhaustible fund of nnecdote and was usually very happy in their application. The country, and particularly Mississippi, was In the midst of the era of broken banks and irredeemable shin plasters, and the business outlook was shaded with the deepest gloom; The times were just ripe for the great political upheaval that swept the country from Maine to Florida there was no California theji. Vicksburg being a young town settled up by men of reckless enterprpise, suffered first from the. financial storm, and It was probably the tirst place in the State to hear the mutterings of the politienl tornado that rushed across Ilio whole land.

We remember a log cabin raising that took place there ea'rlv in UM0, nt which Jeff Orecli made the opening speech. To ui'nlersl uid the fun oT his opening story if is necessary to premise that Vicksburg w.t- at that time llie muddiest town on lhi.5 continent. STETTFtVc CELEBRATED idea of the objects of the road, us it is propoged to make New Orleans tlte southern terminus of it. Capt. Walter F.

Randall, the chief engineer and vice-president of the enterprise, left our city on Monday for the north, in the interest of the road, and Capt. Clins. A. Bryan has also gone to New Orleans upon' the same errand. These gentlemen are pushing the enterprise along jiist as rapidly as they can, and if they do not succeed in an early beginning of work upon it, it will be through no fault of theirs.

The disposition to celebrate anniversary occasions lias become very great throughout the United States. And it is a very useful disposition iu which to indulge. A periodical reminder of an Interesting event has a beneficial effect upon almost any community. We learn that it is contemplated at some time during the present year to celebrate in this city the anniversary of an event that has certainly been eminently useful to a large portion of this community, and one which has brought pleasure to all. The occasion we allude to is the completion of the fortieth year of pastoral service In the Presbyterian congregation, by the venerable and much loved pastor, Rev.

Jos. B. Strut ton, D. D. Inquiry having been frequently made as to the time when the pastorate of Dr.

Stratton commenced, we have been furnished with the following data, which, it is thought, are entirely accurate: In of enforcing it, will be generally found a failure. Wages is most generally the enforcing power, and if a man has money It is well known to physicians, and alas 1 too well known to suffering women themselves, that they are subject to uumcroua diseases peculiar to their sex, such as suppression of the Menses, painful and scanty Menstruation, Congestion, Ulceration and Falling ot the Womb, attended with au endless train of sympathetic and constitutional disorders, which embitters the whole lire, and which have long been considered as almost incurable. But at last the remedy has been found in Dr. J. Bradflold's Female Regulator It Is not a "cure-all," buta remedy for oneclasj of diseases, all of which pertain to the Womb.

Any sufferer from the tliseases mentioned can take this remedy, and thus ralieve herself without revealing her condition to any one, and without subjecting her womanly modesty to the shock of an examination by a physician. To bring health and happiness to the homes ot suffering women is a mission before which royal favor sinks into insignificance. What earthly ben efactlon can compare with one which protects from "That dire disease whose ruthless power Withers beauty's transient Uower?" whleh gives ease for pain, joy for sorrow, smiles for (ears, the rose of health for the pallor of disease, the light, elastic step for dragging weariness.

In New Hampshire, we have recently a statement that Hon. John J. Morrill has lately purchased 1,100 acres of laud for pasture at $2.50 per acre which formerly supported ten families and was then valued at $40 an acre. In Virginia, where the poorly cultivated large farms had become almost valueless, the lands have been divided into small estates and have become valuable. The reason is evident.

The large tracts were poorly farmed, while in the small tracts are found the large farmers. The system of small land holdings Is gradually, but surely workinglts way toward the South, and the time is in the not distant future when the owner of a thousand acre plantation will recognize tho fact that he has an elephant to take care of. Xew England agricultural papers arc already reading lectures to their readers on the disposition to increase the size of their farms, and are holding up the example of the South to them as worthy of imitation in tills respect. The Xew Hampshire Patriot in a recent issue says At the South, while the large plantations are being cut up Into small farms, and a grand advance is being made in general agricnirure. special effort Is being made to encourage the establish men and growth of manufactories of 'all kinds.

In Xew England, Instead of bending every energy to maintain our manufacturing prominence, we may as well begin to look after the restoration of agricultural prosperity." The coniiiie'ndatiou of this New England paper Is probably merited In some sections of the South, but we fear it 4s not in our vicinity. We can only say ws wisli it was.

S. G. Winchester, the session of the church invited Mr. Jos. B.

Stratton, then a recent graduate of the Theological Seminary at Princeton, New Jersey, and a licentiate of the presbytery of Philadelphia, to preach for a short time, with the view of giving him a call to the pastorate. In May, of 1S43, having preached only four or five sermons previously, he preached Ids first sermon in Natchez. So well pleased were the congregation that on June 12th, three or four weeks after his first sermon, a unanimous call was extended him to become pastor of the church. This he took under consideration, and returned to his home in New Jersey, In July. On the 1-lth of August, from Bridgeton, he wrote his letter of acceptance of the call, hut lie dlil nt uAsunif charge of ihe post assigned liliu mull November of the same year, lie preached his tirst sermon after the acceptance of the call, on Sunday, the of November.

Ashe had not then been onlaincd, the presbytery of Mississippi met in the Presbyterian church of this city, ami on the 31st day of December, Sunday, the rite of ordination was administered, and the installation sei vices followed immediately, and Rev. Jos. B. Stratton became pastor of the First Presbyterian Church of Natchez, Iu hich position he has ever since remained, doing jjood and faithful service, beloved by his congregation and honored and esteemed by the whole com -mtiuity iu tills city.

Whether It will be determined by ids congregation to celebrate the anniversary of his tirst sermon Iu their church. June 12th, or the day of his installation as Pastor, Dec. 31st, we do not know. When it is determined on we feel sure that more than Dr. Strutton's own congregation will feel disposed to unite witli them on the occasion.

Few of those who gave hint the right hand of fellowship on that occasion uow remain to congratulate him on the completion of forty years of faithful service.
