The Comls&g illaii.
Last year, o> e of our iarge farmers, Dr.
Waldemar Mooilj. determi. ed to alia < n
the cultivation of cotton, and turn his at
le.ition to native .trasses and stock raising.
Tiie experiment has been most encourag
ing to the Dr. and creditable to his son
Johnnie, a youth of 18 years, who, in the
absence of his fat tier, lias conducted the
farm. Johnnie has personally acted as
herdsman for 77 head of cattle, and culti
vated enough land to produce 200 i ushels
of corn. In addition to this, with the help
of one hand for 42 days, at a > expenditure
of about. SOO, he has mowed atul saved
250,000 pen' L of Bermuda gr.rs !uy, ad
expects to save at least 50,000 lbs. more
from the second cutting of the same ground.
Johnnie is making a test of the capacity
of one acre in Bermuda grass, well manur
ed. lie has already saved, at a single cut
ting, from this acre I t,0:6 pounds of cured
hay, and will mow it again before f >st. He
lias complied with all the requirements of
tiie officers of the State Agricultural Socie
ty as to measurement of land, weighing the
yield, etc., and, we confidently' predi i, will
bear off the pre no m at the State Fair.

Obituary.
Samuel Davis was born in Halifax Cos.,
N. C., in April, 1787. Sometime in the
year 1807 he left his father’s home, and,
unattended, came across the mountains
into Georgia, making his way on too to
Greene Cos., tints early displaying that
energy and reso ulion whioii characterized
his whole life
lie settled in Greenesboro’ in the year
1835, and by his sterling integrity and un
swerving honesty he secured and retained
to tiie day of his death, the respect and con
fidence of the entire community.
In 1845 lie united with the Baptist
Church, and for thirty years was a consist
ent member of the same.
Formauy months preceding his death,
he was a sufferer, and longed most earn
estly for the “ Rest that remaineth to the
people of God.”
On the 7th of September lie breathed his
last, literally falling asleep in Jesus.
So fades a summer cloud away ;
So sinks the gale when storms are o’er;
So'gently shuts the eye of day;
So dies a wave aloDg the shore.

Greene Co’ty Sunday School
Association.
The First Annual Celebration of the
Greene County Sabbath School Associa
tion, took place at Floral Hall, at this place
on Friday last. At 9 o’clock, a. m., the
various Sabbath Schools of the county as
sembled at the Met hodist Church, where a
procession was formed, which marched to
the Hall. After reaching the Hall a song
of welcome was sung by the Greenesboro’
Schools, to which the visiting Schools
heartily responded. As the hundreds of
happy voices united in sweet accord, we
were reminded that no songs “are compar
able unto the songs of Zion.” Prayer was
offered by Rev. F. G. Hughes. After which
an appropriate and entertaining address
was delivered by Rev. L. B. Fish, the effi
cient Agent of the Baptist Publishing So
ciety. Mr. Fish kindly sang several beau
tiful and touching pieces to the delight of
the entirp assembly. The effect of his mu
sical execution was remarkable.
After an intermission for dinner, the As
sociation was called to order, and the in
teresting exercises resumed. Fifteen min
utes was allowed eacli School for sim ing,
or such other exercises as might be prefer
red. In these exercises the several Schools
acquitted themselves handsomely, and we
refrain from special mention, lest we be ac
cused of making an invidious distinction.
The Oakland School devoted the time al
lotted it to the beautiful and impressive
ceremony of planting the Cross.
The consolidated repi r s <4 the Schools
show the pleasing fae’.that over 90 per ct. of
the children of the county are regular atten
dants upon’ the Sabbath Schools. This
speaks well for our county and gives prom
ise of a glorious future. May the Greene
County Sunday School Association exert
an influence which shall not cease in its
effects until it lays it tribute at the judg
ment bar of God.

phoid fever in our neighborhood, some of
which stilt linger. We learn that there
are a few cases of chills also. We hope they
will disappear as the weather gets cool.
Jjgy-The 00l nights of the past week,

Fall stocks of goods, r.nd will in a short

good time to tell their friends what they
have through the columns of the Herald.
There is nothing lost by advertising,—in
fact it brings many a customer who would
not. conte without it.
UST'fe have had but few persons
in our village (his week, most of our peo
ple, we suppose,-are attending court.—
i litre are so many violations of law, es
pecially the criminal part of it, that nearly
half the people become involved, either as
prosecutors or defendants. One party‘seems
to be interested in trying to punish the
guilty and protect society, the other is in
terested to keep his labor and save his
crop, law or no law.
Krtrciiclinienli.
“Marion,” in last week’s Herald, had
a very sensible article, in the main, on the
necessity of retrenchments in our county,
and if his suggestions were practicable,
there won.d certainly be a great saving in
dollars and cents. We think, however,
tout he shows a little spleen on the school
question. It is a small amount that the
Board of Education asked for, any way.
He seems only to have looked at the imme
diate burden without estimating the future
benefits, that ho and the entire community
will derive from it. When we take into
consideration the good that will come to
society in morals, the de
velopment of industries, the increased
value of personal and real property, and
the intelligence and refinement given to the
people through it, his reasons do not
weigh a feather. But, we do not intend
to make issue with him, for his views, in
the main, are good He might make good
suggestions outside of the county also, for
retrenchments are needed everywhere. He
might have said that we have too many
legislators and too much legislation ; that
the time spent in local legislation, to the
neglect of important general matters was
entirely too much, lie might have said
that half the legislators and less than half
the legislation was all the State needed,
lie could have said that we have legislated
and re-legislated, repealed and re-enacted,
until we think many times the court dots
not understand herself.” The whole thing
seems to be “ confusion worse confound
ed.” Fewer laws and more certain penal
ties, would be a benefit to the country. It
takes time and money to make our laws,
and keep the machinery of the government
in motion, and it follows that the fewer
men we have to pay, and the shortest time
to pay them for, will be best for us. Ma
rion might have said all this and more
Consolidation, fewer officers, less legisla
tion, simpler laws, and more certain penal
ties, avc what tho country needs.
Some people act as if their printing
debts were like coffee, and would settle
themselves by standing.
