put a stop to these frauds by raising
their own fertilizers and com and
meat. Speculators in guano and com
and meat will never “step it” as long
as the planters continue to be guilty
of Hie folly of patronizing item. And
hence I say it is the true interest of
the planter to make all these things,
and never have to purchase them or go
in debt for them, and especially on
drafts to be traded a dozen times be*
fore they fall due, and especially so
traded if the articles for which
they are given are worthless. The
planters ran never be benefitted by
such credit, snch commerce as that;
and the sooner they, in the way indi
cated^ stop their own credit for those
things, the better it will be for them.
These are my “views,” hurriedly
given. . Tours truly,
Eli 'Wabbek.

t y • THURSDAY MORNING,
( terest to have one of them, with a
suitable cart or wagon, constantly em
ployed in making fertilizers; and the
planter who works alone on bis form,
also, should employ some of his time
in making something to improve the
production of bis lands, AIT planters
should do this instead of purchasing,
and then they wonld not want credit
to purchase fertilizers, com or meat.
This thing of raising cotton with the
proceeds of which to purchase fertiliz
ers, com and meat, fo, in my opinion,
ruinous to the best interests of the peo
ple, especially when they have to pur
chase on credit, and by the use of
which, in advance of their crops, they
expect to make money with which to
pay for them.
So yon see I want the credit of the
farmer “stopped” for these things,
while yon want his credit kept np, that
he may purchase them oh credit, and
both of ns want what we do want for
the benefit of the planter. I want the
planter to “to stop” his own credit for
these things, by making them abund
antly for himself, which he can do if
Le will, and then he will not be at the
mercy of the too often merciless spec
ulator. This is my position in regard '
to these matters. We should not pur
chase, especially on credit, what we
can so easily make for ourselves. We
should not make ourselves dependent 1

“the human
form divine,” perpetuated by woman
with artistic instruments. Mr. Brooks
was delicately critical; he said the fit
of trousers was an inspiration, the
necktie was an instinct with life, and
the button-holes seemed to breathe.—
He also thought it look like Lin
coln.
Senator Matt Carpenter then, with
impatient hand, seized the torch and
waved it high in tho air. His con
tempt for the ancients could hardly
find expression. We most look to
modem times and to the boundless
West for genias and art. Not to

of the ridiculous appearance of the an
cients: Julias Caesar walking the

hurried along the Appian Way with
out an umbrella, his bedraggled toga
flapping about his legs, the mud
splashing his naked ankles and squeez
ing through his bnnioned toes like
pasty eruptions from his sandals.
The honorable gentleman ridiculed
the idea of the ancient costume being
more available for artistic effect than
the claw-hammer coat, the baggy
trowsers, and the manly boot—the
insignia of onr nobler civilization.—
He fondly trusted that when his
grateful country commissioned some
future female to chiselhis noble form
in spotless marble, or more appropri
ate brass, he shouldhave the benefitof
snch friendly concealment. He thanked
the fascinating, dark-eyed Jumwl- fh
the name of the gallant people of Wis
consin, and it did look like Lincoln.—
