The state agent would send a circular to the 138 county and* agents asking how many plows what sort the alliancemen of that county would want. The county agents would send this cir eular to sub alliance agent, each of whom would report back, and the county agent would report back to the atate a^ciit. lr» a week s time wo would have on tile orders for ap proximutely the number of plows that would be needed by our custo mom during tho so.hm*u. Say that these amounted to 15.000 of a cer tain style of plows. \\ e would then contract for them where we eould bu } 7 them cheapest, and soli them at actual cost of transferring from the tactory to the county alliance." “This would be your system of “\cs, but wo go Anther. When we found our alliances needed a very large number of plows—ami 80.000 farmers would use a great many— we would induce some manufacturer to establish a factory in the city in which our exchange was lo cated, taking his full output <0 the exleot of oor Thi. would uve freight on the plows, and often it would save freight on the raw material from Georgia to the north and on manufactured arti c!e back to Georgia. We nave wood and iron as cheap here as anywhere in America.

This is simply excessive. By combining our shipments 1 of seed, and our jnirehase of fertiizers, we could build, or have built, an oil mill that will jigree to take our seed and give us in return a guaranteed amount of cotton seed meal, or fer tilizers, and based on such prices as will divide with the farmer the ap proximate ten dollars profit per ton now made entirely by 7 tho mills. On all lir.es ot heavy goods we pro pose to bring the farmer as near as posisble to the factory, and deliver him goods bought at spot cash with simply t he cost of a single exchange added.” “How much business can your exchange transact?” “Wo should not aim to do a great volume of business. Wo want the exchange to be a great option house. This would secure prices on a lead¬ ing article, say meat, and advertise to the farmer. “Wo will sell meat for cost, and cost of handling at, say eight cents.” He goes to Americus for ' example, and the merchant charges him ten cents. He Hays:“l can buy of the state exchange at eight cents. If you will sell me as cheap, freight added I will buy 7 of you.” If the merchant agrees, we want him to buy of his local mer¬ chant.

The agent then takes the notes 0 'j the snh alliance, discounts these notes with those banks with which an arrangement for this purpose has boon ma<io, and forwards tho cash all together to the state agent, This is placed to the ere lit of the countv agent. We then till the or ^er of the county alliance, having no such thing as a ‘time price. The members who give notes get goods at precisely the same price as those who send cash, deducting solely the exchange paid to the bank for dis counting their note.’’ “Now work this credit system backward for me.” “See how simple it is. The state exchange sells for cash. The conn tv a! r e nt has discounted the sub alii a nce note which secures the bank.

It will be an incentive for a small and poor farmer—the very class we want to reach with our benefits—to be saving and induslri ous.

It will be observed that though address dwelt upon the clangers of ignorance and the duty to encourage education he said nothing to indi cate that he favors fedeial mterfer ence in this matter. He said: “If in any of the states the public security is thought to be threatened by ignor auce among the electors, the obvious remedy is education. The sympathy and help of our people will not be withheld from any community strug gling with especial embarrassmeute or difficulties connected with the suffrage surname if n the me remedies rcmeuies proposed pruposeu proceed upon lawful lines aud are piomot promoted a bv iy just iust and and honorable lion ira )le methods.” There is no Blalri.ni in tliis. It is an assurance of popular sympatiiy and aid to designs foi the education of the masses, but there is no hint that it is the duty or concern ot toe general government to take hold of such enterprises. In 1884 Mr. Harrison made in the, senate a speech in which he clearly indicated what in his opinion were the “lawful lines upon which efforts for popular educa tiou should proceed. In opposing the Blair bill he said: “The only permanent reliance for the education o{ tb « “^ 88 taxation a m t the h e states, eveiy one con <*ds that.

Drawer 3, Atlanta. Ga. ADVERT The Waltz and German. A correspondent to the Athens Chronicle writing on the above sub¬ ject very sensibly and pointedly says: There is but one sentiment ex-press¬ ed by all civilized people on the dance, and that is, that it is a most ihsidious demoralizer of female mod¬ esty and purity. All enlightened heathens condemn it, and have, ages ago, retired it from their social so¬ ciety. It may be replied that the higher society waltz and german. But do not the negroes and ignorant classes dance also? Position ought to be predicated of purity, but is it? Potipher’s wife, David and Cleopatra were not more chaste because more elevated. If position was chastity, there never would have been so many bastard kings on European thrones. It requires talents and labor to make a good actor in a circus, pulpit, or theatre; but savages, monkeys, and professed Christians, can dance. It is said to be a pleasurable exercise, Then, why not boys german with boys, and girls with girls?—There certainly can be no real pleasure in the use of feet and legs in violent physical exercise. That has no meaning in the movement simply as a movement. Tlien tbe fascination and pleasure !nnst be found in something else, ^ be pleasure often all in the presence of sex, and that presence under conditions and relations of the sex in liberties not allowed in decent private life. Would any man be al *«"«> «<• *» •**• ■><•«" and in the parlor, take his neighbor’s wife or daughter’s hand in his, and then the other arm aroud her waist, and gin her round for hours.

The P ul P ifc and church are constituted by genera l col,8ent the custodians both the morals and proprieties of s °c5ety. Ifaclass in society can waltz and round-dance and german all ui « ht and then take off their ball costumes and put on their church dress, and on Sunday morning dare to tread with german feet the Holy Courts of God, and take the Sacra ment, at the hand of preacher or elder, then where is the line of dis tinetion to be drawn.

As he left the capitol to go down town in a hired two-horse hack ho flung a handful of small change among the gamins standing around and enjoyed the heartiest laugh he has had since the Chicago convention. He would not say what pleased him so. It was not the beauty of the day 7 for that was no greater than the beauty of yesterday 7 . It must have been the report that Blaine had had his first wrestle with Har¬ rison in the cabinet yesterday over White law Beid and the rest of Blaino’s foreign slate and that Har¬ rison w:>n the first fall by quietly hut firmly postponing Blaines rec¬ ommendations indefinently. Senator Don Cameron must havo heard this good nows too, for when he came out of the capitol a little later he drove off smiling in a hired coupe without once observing that the colored driver was imitatin his example by smoking a big cigagr. REASON FOIt HARRISOn’s COURSE. It is stated that the reason for tho delay in tilling the English mission is that the successor of Lord Sack ville has not as yet finally and for¬ mally 7 been appointed, and that this administration does not think it proper that we should be represent ed by a minister in London until Great Britian is represented by a minister in Washington. It is stated that when the appoint¬ ment is made Whitelaw Beid is not likely to be appointed. President Harrison is said to have some one else in mind for this place, although he is willing lo send Beid to France. This, it is said disarranges Blaine’s slate for the principal foreign mis¬ sions. But 131tiilie’s friends say 7 that he does not take it hard and lias no intention of resigning. He has learned, however, that Harrison is President and that he will have his own way about things. Faults of digestion cause disor¬ ders of the liver, and the whole sys¬ tem becomes deranged. Dr. J.
