Queer Weather.—While the days
are quite waim the nights for the past
week have been quite cool, making cov
er comfortable, and fire is demanded in
the early morning. Such weather
considered very unfavorable to the cot
ton crop. We believe eveiy portion of
onr county has had good rains, and the
condition of the crop is somewhat im-
proted. Corn is very short, and nearly
every farmer will have to sow heavily in
oats or boy corn next year.

some extracts from the premium list in
onr advertising columns, and the fuU
list will be it sued from the press of The
Home Journal next week. It will be
found qnite complete for a county fair,
and many of the premiums offered are
much larger than last year.
Our readers will remember that the
last fair was successful bevond the most
sanguine expectations of its friends,
and a far greater success seems assured
for 1879. All those who formerly look
ed with disfavor on the enterprise have
become its friends, and the people of the
county and adjoining counties. The ex
perience gained from the former fairs
will enable the managers to avoid any
mistakes then made, and to add many
featnres of additional interest. Other
advantages which are at their command
is clear money in the treasury to fix up
with, most of the buildings on the
grounds, and everything in harmonious
working order.
Work will soon be began to improve
and pnt the grounds in thorough or
der, and among the improvements will
be scores of seats and amphitheater near
the style ling capable of seating
thousand people.
From all over the country the most
anxious inquiries are made about
the fair, and the liveliest interest ever
known manifested in the fair. The up
per fourteenth district seems deter-
tennined to keep the agricultural ban
ner, but other districts will use every
exertion to win it from her, and our
fourteenth friends must work like he
roes and heroines if they woald keep
that high honor anothet year. There
is not a a fumily in the county that
cannot make from one to a hundred
creditable exhibits, and many can
help sustain old Houston’s fair name,
besides making from ten to fifty dollars
for their trouble.
The rules to secure fair competition
and impartial awards will be veiy strict
and will be rigidly enforced.
Onr people all highly endorse the
moral and upright manner with which
our fairs have been conducted, and
and their benefit in a social point of
view cannot be over estimated.
We will give onr readers full infor
mation from week to week, and the
fall premium list and rules will be hur
ried up.
Let every district and section do
their part, for they can be assured the
Fair Association desires to make no
profit, bnt ouly to earn its legitimate
expenses. Ho for the fair.
ANOTHER JAIL DELIVERY.
m
Saturday evening nbont sundown an
alarm was beard in the direction of the
jail end a stream of citizens at once set
for that place. On reaching the scene
of action we learned that two prisoners
had just escaped and made their way
successfully to Big Indian swamp. The"
particulars are sabstantially as follows:
Mr. Butner, the sheriff, wen t down at
the usual time to feed and water the
the prisoners. There were six in jaiL
three in each of the lower cells. He un
locked one cell after entering, and let
ont one of the prisoners who was in the
habit of drawing water, etc. Before the
door could be secured the other two
rnshed out and seized him, throwing
him dawn almost in the cell. . They
demanded his pistol, saying if he would
give it- up they would not hart him
They then violently tore it out of his
hip-pocket, and as he followed them to
the dour, threatened to shoot him. The
one who was let out to draw water at
once made off, and the one who had the
pistol followed os soon as he conld get
off. The third prisoner was recaptdred
just outside the jail and marched’ back
to his cell by Mr. Butner.
Those who escaped are Berry Jorddh,
colored, charged with burglary, sent
here from Crawford county for safe
keeping; Tinny Wilkins, colored,
charged with forgery, sent here from
Fort Valley. Cornelius Grimes, coior-
ed, charged with burglary in Honston
county, was the one recaptnred.
Berry Jordan is the one who has Mr.
Butner’s pistol, a fine nickel-plated
Smith & Wesson, large bore, new style,
and an excellent weapon.
Pursuit of the fugitives was unaval-
ing. They will doubtless seek employ
ment in some of the neighboring coun
ties.
Every sheriff we have had since the
war has at some time dring his term of
office been overpowered by the prison
ers, and all have had narrow escapes-—
Mr. Cook had his eyes almost entirely
destroyed by lime thrown into them by
the prisoners. Mr. Pierce was severely
assaulted with a bar of bun. - Mr. Ram-
ev, deputy sheriff, was forced to shoot
a prisoner, not fiittlly, in self-defense.
Mr." Norwood was overpowered in a
manner almost identical with the case of
last Saturday.
It is next to impossible for a, sheriff
to carry help witn him every time he
goes to the jail, $nd as the jail is arranged
these occasional escapades are almost
unavoidable. They are very frequent in
our state, and call for some action by
the proper authorities. Probably the
only provision that will render their
recurrence more difficult, is the con-,
strnction of jails so that the jailers’ res
idence is adjacent, so that the outside
doors can be secured, and the actions
of the prisoners better watched.
Sheriff Butner is pretty sore from Ms
scuffle with.the mutineers,, and we hope
he will soon haro the satisfaction of
turning the key on them ngair. .
stage coach familiar with oar fathers
and became well acquainted with its
top, thro’ the medium of the tops of
onr heads. Finally we went thro’ the
ordeal of meeting the assembled guests
on the -porch cf the celebrated
McIntosh House, an ordeal only those
who have been submitted to it can fully
appreciate. We stepped forth, being
guilty of the sensation that, we were
uncertain whether we were walking up
rightly or waltzing on onr ear, but
eventually escaped tc our room and
prepared to meet the collected divini
ties.
The Indian hasn’t been giving credit
for the crowd which it really entertains
this season. Its inuccesibility pre
vents it from being patronised to the
extent which it deserves and from be
ing the fashionable resort whieh it was
in aste bellum days. Nevertheless we
found many pleasant people from dif
ferent parts of the State and it can
never be a nonentity.
So frequently “the value of all things
exists, not indeed, in themselves, bnt
mans use of them, feeding mans need.”
Here tho’ beniiit can really be derived
as an analysis by Dr. Arnold some years
age sbows how efficiacious its waters
are for rheumatism and liver affections.
Every one I met added their tribute of
praise to the water and tbeir conviction
of material benefit from its nse. Be
sides its medicinal recommondations
it is charmingly situated.
Naturally there is no’more delightful
place and these loving nature, here
beauties and excentricities could be in
stantly attracted here. Situated at- the
foot of an almost precipitous hill, the
little life renewing fount bubbles forth
.from a fissure in a gigantic rock, in a
minute bnt continuous stream, crystal
clear and limpid.
The discovery of and tradatioas con
nected with the spring have been so of
ten told that I shall not tonch upon
them, but- so thoroughly is the place
adapted for an Indian encampment
that the first time I visited the place,
my mind involuntarily turned to the
time when probably was here enacted
the wooing of some Minnie Ha Ha by
the swarthy Hiawatha.
Here the women at tho wig-wain
iutent upon their duties— -the
smoko from the boiliug cauldron
-here the sinewy warriors, toil spent
“Mayhap, reliersing ancient tales of greenwood
love and bliss,
Perchance, of booty won or shared beneath the
starry cape—
Of graves, perchance, untimely scooped at midnight
dart and dank;
Of traitors lips that muttered plots—of. kin who
fought and felL"
But “some dreams we have arc nothing else but
dreams.”
The larger part of the excursion
stopped at the McIntosh, the remain
der nt the Elder. They were soon
made at ease by the genial welcome
of the proprietor Mr. B. W. Collier and
immediately comfortably domiciled by
the charming Mr. Wait Collier. Rain
soon poured in torrents and continued
without ceasing for several days. Despite
the gloom magnificent which prevailed
ontside ‘he spirits within were not over
shadowed and pleasantry and dancing
reigned supreme. Tae fall of rain
is said to be unprecedented the water
being ten or twelve feet above the
bridges and cutting off all commucation
between mail points for several days.
The dress ball was quite a success.
Despite the dripping clouds, many visi
tors came in and the display of beauty
enhanced by elegnnt.dressfngand hand
some gallant men in the graceful exe
cuted polanaioe which opened the ball
was pronounced the grandest for years.
I mast not omit to mention the liter
ary entertainment, wMch was given on
Saturday evening, consisting of mnsic,
recitations, reading and puns on the
“household.” It was a charming af
fair and devised and managed by the
elegant and charming Miss Carrie C.
Accessions to onr present party, nnm-

The Maine election, if the Republi
cans are to carry it, most givo them
75,000 votes, or 12,000 more than they
got last year. They must bring ont all
their reserves and win back some of
their revolters who have joined the
Greenbackers. Well informed New
England jonrnals seem to doubt their
ability to do this. • They say that the
canvass is languid, and that Sherman's
“boom,” while it may. have helped him
personally in Blaine’s stronghold, cer
tainly did not help the party mncL. the
issue in Maine being exclusively local,
not national. There is also said to bea
decided reluctance in- some qnarteis to
drill under Blaiue’s lead, and this may
prevent the full vote from being brought
out.

FREE SCHOOLS.
Editor Home Journal-—
Under the above heading I would
like to ask you a few plain questions.
We have a free school system which al
lows a teacher to teach three months in
the year at one place, to be paid by the
school commissioner. Now after he
teaches three months at that place, he
opens a school within a mile and teach
es another three months;—can the same
scholars go to school the second three
months? If they can, I don’t see any
nse to move. I know of several children
in my neighborhood who have been to
school six months, and are now going
to the third school, wMch will make
nine months schooling they will receive
free. Is this the intention of the law?
If so, do away with the free school sys
tem. I am opposed to it in toto. I
think the law says those between the
ages of six and sixteen are entitled to
the benefits ot the free school (I am not
positive). If so, none ought to go bnt
those between those ages; yet they goat
any age—married men and married wo
men. Is this right? I hare thought
on this subject a good deal, and I am
of the opinion that they are more of a
curse than a blessing. They encourage
idleness and laziness in the colored
race. Let one go to school long enough
to read a little, and he is done work.—
He become a teacber, then a preacher,
and then a leader among them. Yon
can’t persuade them to read anything
bnt the most dirty radical sheets; those
that abuse the whites most they seek
after,
I am tired of being taxed to educate
vagrants and vagabonds. Do away with
the free school. Let every tab stand
on its own bottom. If the darkey wants
to be educated let him pay for it. There
is no justice in one man being taxed to
educate another’s children. Outside oi
the cities the free school system does
not benefit the poor white children bnt
very little; because their parents in tho
spring are compelled to keep them at
home to help them in their farms. Now,
hlr. Editor, I would like to reed your
views ou this subject, will yon be
kind as to give them through, tho col

THE TOWN FARMER.
The benevolent town farmer feels that
his mission to the planting community
has been fulfilled. Not that all ptant-
ers are believed to be in a prosperous
condition just now, bat that their un
satisfactory circumstances are not in any
way attributable to dereliction, error, or
inefficiency on his part. Their failures
are owing either to a perverse and per
sistent repudiation of his counsels, or to
the drought. Exceptional instances of
failure are perhaps attributable to sheer
laziness. These, like the others, reflect
no discredit upon the town farmer. He
has never prescribed a remedy for lazi
ness, and doabts if it is’carable in this
climate. At present the town farmer
devotes himself, in spare moments, not
idle moments) to the contemplation of
what are known as general principles,
and so gathers materials for miscella
neous theories. Some of them when
constructed, will be valuable to all bus-
ness men, and especially to such plant
ers as are not “set in their ways,”
- On general principles be l-elieves that
various mercantile and banking commu
nities which are shipwrecked to-day,
with only a part of the cargo saved in a
damaged condition, wonld have contin
ued to sail in prosperous wi nds if they
had not attached dredging machines to
their loaded ships. That figure of
speech means that merchants and bank
ers, when trade was good, gouged their
customers to death, and so produced a
revulsion calamitous to themselves.—
They deserved their fate certainly, bat
the town farmer who went down in the
general crash was a genuine martyr.—
He cried out against the madness of fol
ly and avarice all the way to the bot
tom.
Approach a gonger down here on the
common level and ask him why he per
petrated such wicked and preposterous
folly in the day of his opportunity,fand
he will answer that the self-styled “poor
planter importuued him for so-called
“help,” and was eager to sabmit to ei
ther usury or extortion. He felt bound
to accommodate him on the terms. To
day the foolish planter bitterly curses
the sometime festive googer, and the
foolish gonger bitterly corses the some
time sanguine cottontot, and so the air
of heaven is filled with the imprecations
of avaricious fools whoso coffers are
empty.

Saturday formally pronounced the yels
low fever epidemic in that city. The
deaih rate is small in proportion to the
number of casses reported, and inas-

is expected that the rate of mortality
will not exceed in any week that of the

reported np to Saturday from the first
appearance of the disease is three 1 nn-
