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. Perry, Go., Sept. 23, 1870. IUST0H HOME JOURNAL BY J. T.

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 PHOTOGRAPHIC ROOMS idne.

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.

He drew a vivid picture of the ridiculous appearance of the an cients: Julias Caesar walking the streets of Rome on a wet day, or hop ping over the mud puddles as he 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.— Judge Davis said it looked like Lin coln, “and he knowed.” Here the marine band plgyed “Come where my love lies dreaming,” and the angu& assembly broke up,_ leaving the “Ag ger” in the dark,—New Orleans Times.
