The Story of a Man and a Mule.— The Early county News tells it aa follows: We learn that Mr. Resin Buckner was serionsly hurt by a mule, on Tnesday latt. He, with the aid oi several others, was trying to burn the male’s shoulder for fistula. Mr. Buckner stood several feet in front holding the end of the halter, two others stood close to the head, one holding the bridle and the other a cord twisted on the nose. Just as the het iron was applied, the male jerked loose from the two holding its head, about faced in donbleqnick time, and let drive with its heels, hitting Mr. B. square in the face, flattening his nose and patting one eye in deep mourning. It took Mr. Back- ner about twenty minntea to ascertain where ho was, or what had happened. Upon coming to he had hia nose straight ened up and his head bandaged, refusing to Bend for a doctor, aa he thought it would be “all right by morning. f The directors of the xoung Mena Ll brary of Atlanta have decided to build a handsome fonr-story etructure for that institution.

HOW YISHE8 AND FROGS ARB SOME TIMES RAINED DOWN.

Below will bo found a statement, gleaned from the New York Sun of last Friday, whioh very clearly and satisfactorily explains how such creatures were drawn into tho rain- clouds, and how, in consequence, they would come down with a rain discharge of the heavy amount of water drawn up with them in a water-spout: WATERSPOUTS ON THE HUDSON AND ON THB BOUND. At twenty minutes before 12 o’clock on Wednesday morning, the water of the Hudson, about a quarter of a mile from Sing Sing shore, was agitated in a peon- liar manner. Ashore there was hardly a breath of air stirring, and nowhere else on the river was there any commotion. Presently a large gray cloud drifted 'across the Bky, and, hanging nearly oyer the disturbed water, began to bulge downward toward the river, and after a few seconds a thin thread of water shot up from the agitated surface and entered the cloud. The stream grew larger and larger until its diameter WAS about twice tbat of a hegshead. The cload drew up the wftter very rapidly, and bsWtne *MJ bluck. » ward, drawing ita swrI supply pipe after it, but the latter did not follow qnlekly enOMbtO retain a perpendicular, and it soon took the forflefa glg^ticcnrve.

CONSUMPTION. The past year has* been a truly memo rable one in cotton spinning as well as ootton raising. .Unfortunately, the nature of the crisis the world wa3 pass ing through was net generally nnder* stood, so* that each succeeding month has proved an increased disappointment. Our readers may avoid a aimilar expe rience tne present season by accepting the lesson taught, and by refusing longer to bopeTor a consumption based on the old conditions. The troth is, late events have given now proof of tba important -fact that there are too many spindles in the world for them all to find profitable employ ment. This condition will not last, bnt enforces a period of rest until the ca pacity to oonsnmo goods shall overtake tbe capacity to spin. The breaking ont of onr war and tbe blockading of the Southern ports added sudden wealth to all other ootton prodnoing oonntries, while in the Uuited States, under the infiaenos of rising paper values, there was seemingly marvelous growth in wealth. Here was rematkabls development of purchasing power, qusckly exciting nn "unnatural de mand for European manufactures. As tno war olosed, this stimulating proces reoeived anew impulse through the many millions borrowed by us in Europe and reokleasly and lavishly thrown buck there for European products to feed the ex- travsganoe the borrowed money fostered. Under these conditions cotton epindles noreased so rapidly that sgatnet a con sumption of about 1,705,400,000 pounds 1866 67 they had reached a capacity 1878 of about 2,400,000,000 pound?, or about 4} million bales, of. 400 lbs. each, 1867 against about six million bales the same weight in 1878. Further more—and thi3 is tha most important total prodbcli6tiiCBlnr*AmAA 1 b.‘^»—-i~ forced trade), every European oountry together with tho United States and India having become opartnara m toe work. And now our panic, whioh fireb took the ma»k off here and subsequently disclosed the unreal in Europe as well, has left Great Britain to divide up the normal consumption between herself and ner new partners; not so much that any of these countries have become exporters of goods sb that tney have curtailed England’s exports by supplying to a greater extent their own consumption. Even this very season Bussife has in- created her takings of cotton about two thousand bales per week, which simply means so muehleBB demand on Man chester from Rossis. „ It will be seen from the foregoing fig ures that the Chronicle planes under the head of “overland and Southern con sumption" 626255 bales, against 465,620 bales for the crop of 1877-8-ahowing an unlooked for excess of 160,635 bales I In the crop of 1876-7 these items were set down at 447,282 bales. In the crop of 1876 6 they made a total of 478,146 bales In the crop of 1874-7 they aggregated 355,822 bales. Henoe we were wholly unprepared for this enormous excess, and in onr guess at the crop allowed only half a million bales for overland and Sonthem consumption whioh, it seems, was 126,255 bales short. -Ex-Gov.
