Washington, Nov. 27.—There is groat uncertainty and anxiety to-day as to what the future will bring fortU in tlie way of clerical decapitations. The air is full of rumors of additional discharges, aud the names of these '• suspects" include nearly every prominent Department officer who was counecled with the Brady regime or has championed his cause. District Attorney Corkhill is supposed to be amoug those marked for dismissal. lie said, however, last night that he had no knowledge that such action was contemplated. But the Government has never liked his attitude nor trusted him with its secrets, and he is uo doubt regarded as all obsiaele. The Deparlmeut of J uslice is very well satisfied with the general mutiaKCtneiit of his office. A local report makes George Bliss his successor. That is absurd, though Mr. Bliss may accept the office temporarily for the purpose of prosecuting the Star Route cases. First Comptroller Lawrence is also spoken of as holding hi i office by an uncertain tenure. One reason for this may lie iu the fact that his office has not shown a very sympathetic spirit iu ihe settlement of some of the Star Route trial expenses. Public Printer Rounds is also evidently disliked at the Department of Jus1 ice.

Nov. 27.—The market this morning exhibited unmistakable symptoms of reluming vitality. Ii started off in a manner to lndi.ee the belief that if it is to bo kepi below the dollar mark a goCHl many t umors will be required lo keep it there. All signs fail in the market, but froui general apiicarauco it looks as il the recent break, while very disastrous in its immediate effects, might possibly result in some good in the way ot shifting the oil into the hands of stronger parties; men with sufficient capital lo hold it, and prevent a recurrence of such a panic as was experienced last week When the sharks of trade get what they want, the market will undoubtedly go up. provided, of course, Ihe SHilatiou doer not cbango materially.

Mr. Faresh Fnrman, formerly a member of the Georgia Stato Senate, retired from politics five years ago and went to planting. He owned a considerable tract of scrub land n Central Georgia, which be bad leased to tenants, who bad cultivated it on the old exhaustive plan, and left it nearly barren and worthiest!, valued at less than $5 an acre. It was this laud that Mr. Furman took bold of and resolved to cultivate on an entirely new system for the South. He determined not to farm much land in the wasteful Southern style of twenty years ago, hot to take only a few acres. He began his experiment with a field of sixty-five acres and planted it in cotton. The first year's crop was disheartening enough to have discour agod any other man—only eight bales, of one to every eight acres. The land, he mid, was very poor and needed fertilizing. Analyzing the cotton he discovered its chemical tonstitnents, and at once proceeded to manufacture a compost that contained just those mbstances that the cotton plant extracted from the soil. Using 500 pouuds of compost to the acre, Jie increased his crop in 1870 to twelve bales ; in J.880, with .1.096 pojinds to the acre, to twenty-three bales; in 1881, with 2000 pounds, to forty-seven bales ; while this year, with 4000 pounds, he will produoe between ninety and one hundred bules on bis sixty-five-a«ro timet, or one and a half bales to the aero on what ti. known as " scrub " Georgia land. He hae thus conclusively proved the advantage of s system which, he declares, will, in time, yield three bnles per r.cre on «ry laud, how iver poor. Mr. Furman's cuinpost cost! $14.20 per pcre, or $!I42 for the whole farn: this year, and the total expense of raising his crop waCf $2,800, while the net profit* were $2,726, or $40 au acre.—Atlanta Oun. dilution.

Ho did this both for tho sake of himself aud the multitude of ministers who wavered between uew and old teachings. He also wanted to reply to those who said he had wandered from the truth. If modern theology helped men better than the old theology it would stand. Theology must advance. Men could read Paul's theology of evolution, and yet when Darwin formulated his theory thC y started back and said "Isn't this the De\i' coming out of Hell?" By this hypothesi.- the power of God was as fully shown as b, the old theory. This view might haveJ greater power to help men than any other. Man followed the analogy of the seed aud the animal. The baby wus a little brute animal. Nothing was so helpless as the little sack full of bones and flesh called a baby. The world was not God, but its laws were the paths of God's feet. The more complicated the plan the more need of a Designer. Tho more scientific the plau of the world the more uuthiukable is atheism. The God depicted iu orthodox creeds was an infernal demon, v.orse than any imagined by Dante, aud every honest man was called upon to say that he would not worship such a God. even if he wore damned for it. All violation of law was nqt sin, but action by the anitual passions rather than l.y the spiritual instincts was sinful. There was no suoh thing as original sin. Union.

Washington, Nov. 27.—There is groat uncertainty and anxiety to-day as to what the future will bring fortU in tlie way of clerical decapitations. The air is full of rumors of additional discharges, aud the names of these '• suspects" include nearly every prominent Department officer who was counecled with the Brady regime or has championed his cause. District Attorney Corkhill is supposed to be amoug those marked for dismissal. lie said, however, last night that he had no knowledge that such action was contemplated. But the Government has never liked his attitude nor trusted him with its secrets, and he is uo doubt regarded as all obsiaele. The Deparlmeut of J uslice is very well satisfied with the general mutiaKCtneiit of his office. A local report makes George Bliss his successor. That is absurd, though Mr. Bliss may accept the office temporarily for the purpose of prosecuting the Star Route cases. First Comptroller Lawrence is also spoken of as holding hi i office by an uncertain tenure. One reason for this may lie iu the fact that his office has not shown a very sympathetic spirit iu ihe settlement of some of the Star Route trial expenses. Public Printer Rounds is also evidently disliked at the Department of Jus1 ice.

Nov. 27.—The market this morning exhibited unmistakable symptoms of reluming vitality. Ii started off in a manner to lndi.ee the belief that if it is to bo kepi below the dollar mark a goCHl many t umors will be required lo keep it there. All signs fail in the market, but froui general apiicarauco it looks as il the recent break, while very disastrous in its immediate effects, might possibly result in some good in the way ot shifting the oil into the hands of stronger parties; men with sufficient capital lo hold it, and prevent a recurrence of such a panic as was experienced last week When the sharks of trade get what they want, the market will undoubtedly go up. provided, of course, Ihe SHilatiou doer not cbango materially.

Mr. Faresh Fnrman, formerly a member of the Georgia Stato Senate, retired from politics five years ago and went to planting. He owned a considerable tract of scrub land n Central Georgia, which be bad leased to tenants, who bad cultivated it on the old exhaustive plan, and left it nearly barren and worthiest!, valued at less than $5 an acre. It was this laud that Mr. Furman took bold of and resolved to cultivate on an entirely new system for the South. He determined not to farm much land in the wasteful Southern style of twenty years ago, hot to take only a few acres. He began his experiment with a field of sixty-five acres and planted it in cotton. The first year's crop was disheartening enough to have discour agod any other man—only eight bales, of one to every eight acres. The land, he mid, was very poor and needed fertilizing. Analyzing the cotton he discovered its chemical tonstitnents, and at once proceeded to manufacture a compost that contained just those mbstances that the cotton plant extracted from the soil. Using 500 pouuds of compost to the acre, Jie increased his crop in 1870 to twelve bales ; in J.880, with .1.096 pojinds to the acre, to twenty-three bales; in 1881, with 2000 pounds, to forty-seven bales ; while this year, with 4000 pounds, he will produoe between ninety and one hundred bules on bis sixty-five-a«ro timet, or one and a half bales to the aero on what ti. known as " scrub " Georgia land. He hae thus conclusively proved the advantage of s system which, he declares, will, in time, yield three bnles per r.cre on «ry laud, how iver poor. Mr. Furman's cuinpost cost! $14.20 per pcre, or $!I42 for the whole farn: this year, and the total expense of raising his crop waCf $2,800, while the net profit* were $2,726, or $40 au acre.—Atlanta Oun. dilution.

Ho did this both for tho sake of himself aud the multitude of ministers who wavered between uew and old teachings. He also wanted to reply to those who said he had wandered from the truth. If modern theology helped men better than the old theology it would stand. Theology must advance. Men could read Paul's theology of evolution, and yet when Darwin formulated his theory thC y started back and said "Isn't this the De\i' coming out of Hell?" By this hypothesi.- the power of God was as fully shown as b, the old theory. This view might haveJ greater power to help men than any other. Man followed the analogy of the seed aud the animal. The baby wus a little brute animal. Nothing was so helpless as the little sack full of bones and flesh called a baby. The world was not God, but its laws were the paths of God's feet. The more complicated the plan the more need of a Designer. Tho more scientific the plau of the world the more uuthiukable is atheism. The God depicted iu orthodox creeds was an infernal demon, v.orse than any imagined by Dante, aud every honest man was called upon to say that he would not worship such a God. even if he wore damned for it. All violation of law was nqt sin, but action by the anitual passions rather than l.y the spiritual instincts was sinful. There was no suoh thing as original sin. Union.
