Death of Mr. IV. M. Blackmon.
Mr. W. M. Blackmon died ut his home in
Wacoochee Valley, Ala., yesterday afternoon at
2 o’clock, after a lingering illness of typhoid
fever. He was 3ft years of ago and leaves no
fhniilv. He was a highly respected and worthy
young man who had many friends who will re
gret to learn of his death.
Green*ille Made H.ippi.
The base hall dubs of Senoia and Greenville
played a match game in the latter place yester
day. Greenville won by a score of 14 to 11. and [
it is said the town was wild with enthusiasm last
night. Columbus has had these very symptoms 1
of the base ball fever, but a tew defeats soon j
takes the delirium out of the patient.
\ Larue Blue ('rime.
Yesterday morning little Will Gibson, soil of
Mr. H. A. Gibson, killed a large blue orane on
his father's fish pond. The crane measured six
fact and four inches from tip to tip and about
five feet in height. He was on exhibition in
front of Mr. Gibson’s store yesterday and at
tracted considerable attention.

<}uite a number of children gathered at the
’ < )dd Fellows hall at 8 a. in. for the purpose of or
ganizing a juvenile temple, which resulted in the
. organization of a temple of twenty members. At
the conclusion of the meeting the children were
treated to a bounteous supply of candies and
nuts. This juvenile temple will meet next Sun-
{ day evening at 5 o’clock at St. Luke church,
; when the superintendent, Mrs. Dr. Blanchard,
will be present and conduct the meeting,
j The morning session of the grand lodge opened
at ft o’clock with J. H. Roberts in the chair.
! Committees on finance and literature made
j their final reports, which were adopted.
( The committee on the state of the order re
ported the order in a progressive state.

York. Boston and other northern markets, and I
find by experiment that Columbus, considering
i s proximity to Florida and its acknowledged
facilities, i* the best market for me to buy shoes
in, and 1 am now buying my shoes here."
A reporter for the Enoulskr-Sun recently heard
the hardware merchants from Alexander City,
Ala., discussing Columbus as a market in which
to purchase goods in their line. They both
agreed that they could do no better, and might
do worse hv going elsewhere. Evidently Colum
bus is destined to have an immense wholesale
trade in the future.

so reduce the price as to make larger his present
losses in cotton making? Are our farmers such
mutton-heads as to do such a thing? I conclude
not.
But this is foreign from my suggestion, which
was to curtail acrcago. Cultivate from three-
fourths to four-fifths less land, and produce the
same crops we did before, and make money by
cutting oy labor expenses and building up our
lands. Until we begin to do this in good earn

Hon. Thomas \V. Grimes’ nomination for con

in a short time his resignation as solicitor-gen
eral of the Chattahoochee circuit. There are
now in the field three avowed candidates for ap
pointment to fill the vancancy. They are A. A.
Carson, Esq., of Butler, J. H. Worrill, Esq., of
Talbottou, and H. C. Cameron, Esq., of
Hamilton. They are all comparatively young
men. but with several years’ experience
in the practice of law. All bear splendid reputa
tions. and are gentlemen of ability and sterling
character. Wherever the mantle falls, it will fall
upon shoulders worthy to wear it. So far as is
known at present, Columbus will not present a
candidate, and the appointment of either gentle
man now aspiring will no doubt give entire satis
faction.

inserted a notice of their nights which their lodge

A resolution was adopted expressing the re

and Rev. E. Evans, both members of the grand
lodge, who had died since the last meeting.
Definite steps were taken to more fully organize

the colored children.

As tin* business of the session had been ex

j was more interest in the game than in that of
j Tuesday, and the audience was treated to the
excitement of chasing base runners between the
bases several times. The hatting of the Amuteuis
I was a great improvement over the first game.and j (la - v s issue from Rusticusestablishes any propoi
j the boys did some daring base running. Follow
; ing is the score of the game :
lain yesterday, just enough to put the
ground in good working order, for we were
getting real dry, and the ground was get
ting hard. It looks now like we are going
to have some more rain. Turnips that
were planted a day or two ago were up
this morning “before breakfast.” If we
get a little more rain now, it will be the
very making of upland com and turnips,
and peas and peavines and forage corn and
things of that kind. It will help out cot
ton too as a matter of course, but I can al
ways take more interest and have more
patience with a crop that I know
I can eat after it is made.
A few days ago there passed by here a
poor old woman, riding in a sorry vehicle,
having a few sorry apples and a few sorry
peaches and some chickens and some eggs.
She said she lived about six miles above
here, and that she was going to market to
buy some bread, for there was no bread in
all that country. She stopped at the store
and bought a nickel’s worth of crackers
for breakfast. That, I think, is the next
thing to a famine.
A prominent and well-informed Christian
! gentleman told me the other day that he
Kell, I had never known our country to" be in so
. } ,| bad a condition as it is at this time. He
‘ ' I said that the people were actually too poor
lj 1 to be religious; that they were not able to
sustain the gospel as they ought. Our
Sl,sie | farmers don’t have any increase to “title,”
| Jewett, White Sulphur Springs; J. Stapler, Dozier; i but they are decreasing every year as fast
I W. H. Stockton, Atlanta; W. A. Driver, Mont-I as they can. Many of them are driving
straight to bankruptcy.
What brought about this state of affairs ?
Well, it is the same old story. The farm
ers went in debt to make a crop that they
could not eat, and sold that crop for less
money than it cost them to produce it, and
then went in debt again for more supplies
to make more cotton, to sustain their
credit and keep up appearances a little
while longer. The startling truth is upon
us that we are slaves; for a people who fail
to make their supplies or fail to run on a
cash system for these supplies, are and
ever must be slaves.
It is to be. hoped that when foreign com
panies get possession of some of our lands,
that they will introduce a new system
among us, and teach us how to bring up
our old worn out lands and make our
bread and meat at home. It will be a hard
lesson for our southern boys to learn, but
if their parents will not teach them how
to make the farm self-sustaining, they will
be compelled to hire themselves to north
erners and foreigners and be their ser
vants.

I farmer will find, by a close calculation, it will not
! cost less than eight dollars per acre to cultivate
• land in cotton, which will be $40, ’leaving a bal-
awe of$2.50 to pay for the guano, which would
j not buy over one sack 200 pounds, just in pounds
to ihe aero.
Suppose that farmer had acted on my stigge. -
tion to produce the 500 pounds of cotton on one
acre instead of five, how would the account
stand ? Ono thousand pounds of any goongufli o
will do this, if applied properly from the time of
planting to laying by. I can cite many instances
wherefrom one to two bales to the acre were
made last year by the use of 600 pounds of horn.-
mixed guano to the acre on thin land.
And if 600 pounds would do so, 1 think it safe to
say 1000 would do as well or better. One thous

The Griffin News, which is published outside of

nation: “In the fourth eongiessioual district
democratic convention, which met at LaGrange
on Tuesday, Thomas \Y. Grimes, of Columbus,
was nominated on the 101th ballot to succeed
Congressman Henry R. Harris, defeating Alvin
D. Freeman and J. H. Fannin. Mr. Grimes,
though a young man. is an old time southern
gentleman, and will not only reflect credit upon
his district, but will gain the friendship of every
man he meets in Washington,”

The writer made this present year at the rate
of 150 bushels of corn per acre on poor upland by
very high fertilizing, say at the rate of one and a
half tons of guano per acre, and nothing else. I
used two kinds of corn, and both early varieties.
I exhibited corn on the first of this mouth hard
enough to grind, and have corn now growing
planted the third day of this month and doing
well, from seed corn of this year’s growth. I
admit that the use of guano by a large number of
our farmers since the war has not paid, but there
are many farmers who are making it pay. under
