A aide from the statistical position and

cotton la relatively and actually cheap
er than any other agricultural product.
Col Shepperaon auya on thin subject:
"During the pnat titty years cotton
has not been as low In New York In
June ns It la now, nnd very likely It
(baa never been so low here In June.
|TW* Is also true of IJverpool and It
la preliably true of every European and
American market. That cotton la un
questlonobly rheap compared with Ita
value In prevloua years la clearly es
tablished by the above farts. Compared
with prlcea of a year ago wheat Is still
15 per cent higher, notwithstanding the
recent heavy decline, while corn, oats
and mesa pork are 25 per cent higher,
and sugar Is IS per cent higher. Cotton
Is 1 3-8 cents per pound, or IS per rent,
lower, and tha print cloths 1-2 cents
per yard, or 20 per cent, lower. It is
quite clear, therefore, that cotton Is
also cheap compared with other staple
commodities.”
All things considered, therefore! there
Is no reasoft for depression In the cot
ton trade, as the chances are mainly
In favor of an Improvement tn prices.

CROPSIN CLARENDON.
Tobacco Has Done Well and Is Being
Harvested.
Manning, S. C., July 14. —The tobac
co crop has done well and the farmers
are rapidly harvesting it and will soon •
be ready for the opening salea. There
la not as inurb enthusiasm among the
growers as there was two seasons ago,
but money Is being made from the crop
and In Severn! localities has taken the
place of cotton on farms. Corn is tn
excellent condition; cotton Is small,
but of luxuriant growth and bids fair
to make a fine crop.
Hundreds of bales of last year's cot
ton are lying around stores and planta
tions, which have been held for better
prices. Some of It will have tb be re
baled before being placed on the mar
ket, and the holder will probably lose
heavily If sold at the present price.
The town has about recovered from
the smallpox snare. The cases which
were quarantined In May have recover
ed and no new casro have developed.
The town authorities In the early
sjrlng were very lenient and not until
a case appeared In the spring did they
raise a quarantine, and then only
against Sumter, while on the other side
at Bllver and Summerton the disease
was equally as prevalent. One white
man and one negro man had the small
pox, nnd had we been a seaport town
and being bombarded hy a Spanish
fleet the excitement could not have
been greater. The health of the town
Is excellent now.

! NEW TERRITORY.
Additlpus te Oar 0«b Vast
Dvmli.
It I* Considered From a Democratic
Standpoint.
: Atlanta Const Hutton.
Congressman Ams J. Cummings of
|New York is ardently In favor of the
‘policy of acquisition and aWy snpp rts
hi* position In the matter by reviewing
j the addltons to the national domain
{made uoder democratic admlnUtra-
I tloas.
First, he goes back to tbs admin s
: tratlon of President Jefferson and
sbi-ws that th» Louisiana purchase,
j embracing 1,173,*3t aquare miles, and
exlanding from the mouth of the Mis
sissippi river to Puget sound, was made
under that administration, and that
prevloua to tb* acquisition of this vast
territory, th* national domain, then
spiral! out along the Atlantic eeabjard.
j comprised only 827,Ml square miles.
Next, under tbe administration of
• President Monroe, he shows that the
i peninsula of Florida and the coast
strip of Miaalsslppi and Alabama, em
bracing 59,288 square miles, were ac
quired from Spain. Under the admin
istration of President Polk, he shown
that tbe republic of Texas, embracing
; 378.133 square miles, was acquired by
j its admission into tbe federal union,
'and tbat by way of Indemnity for los
ses Incurred m the war with Mexico
the great western area of the cotulnent,
embracing 545.783 square miles, was
| acquired also. Next under the ad-
I ministration of President Pierce, he
I shows that the Called States acquired
j 45.535 square miles of territory, known
as tbe Gadsden purchase. So putting
together the various pieces of territory
acquired by the United Slates under
the democratic administrations. Con
gressman Cummings shows that tbe
aggregate thus acquired reaches the
enormous sum of 2.198,650 square miles
or nearly three times the original area
of government Since the acquisition
of territory in the past has been entire
ly In accord with sound democratic
principles, Congressman Cummings
contends that such is true In the pres
ent, and insists that the United States
should hold whatever territory it may
acquire as the outcome of tbe present
war.
Congressman Cummings argues that
when a nation begins to lose Its terri
tory. decay then commences, and tbat
so long as It continues to acquire terri
tory rightfully it must prosper. On
such grounds, Congressman Cummings
strongly advocates tbe policy of acqui
sition.
He believes that the government
should not even consider the proposi-4
tlon to sell to other powers the ter
ritory which It may acquire in the pres
ent war.
Hon. C. B. Bush, president of the
Gilmer County <W. V.) Court, says
that he has had three cases of flux in
his family, during the past summer,
which he cured In less than a week
with Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy. Mr. Bush also
states that in some instances there
were twenty hemorrahges a day.—
Glenville, W. V., Pathfinder. This rem
edy has been used in nine epidemics
of flux and one of cholera, with perfect
success. It can always be depended up
on for bowel complaint, even in its
most severe forms. Every family should
keep it at hand. The 25 and 50 cent bot
