uB.^k.'.ohH | w hat hbonid Colton b a Worth?
The New Toik Commercial Bulletin, i
throagh some correspondents, iexglla- i
ting Use question as to what cation is
(airly worth 7 It la an interesting topic;
for although what a thing ouyi.l to Is af
ford* but very unsatisfactory indicia of
what it really ie or will be, yet this much
may be truthfully said—it points that
way. Toe conclusion will naturally
gravitate toward the rationale of tbe sit-
natlon. -
Now “E. I. D.” (our old friend Don
nell?) goes to anto-pen:c times and
sake:
At this point most naturally antes the
question whet wonld have been the price
in 1872 and 1873 if there had been a mil
lion bale* lees In the world than there
wee; or, in other words, if the average
stock had been but little more then half
what they were? It may be doubted if
any ootton merchant would reply less
then one shilling to fifteen pence iter-
lmg.
Since the panic of 1873 there nave
been at least three veiy strong “bnll”
speculations, caused entirely by the fact
that tbe world’s consumption was eaoh
year eating into from two three hundred
thousand kales of the reserve stocks.
Of coarse tbeso speculations were not
sustained, becaaee we had not turned
the course; trade was eull on tbe down
grade and no appreciation in tbe price
of anything oonld be sustained.
In tbe meantime stocks continue to go
down, getting lees every year, so that,
for two or three seasons it hsa been very
difficult, eTen with depressed trade, to
eke out the old crop until the new began
lo arrive. This year and last It waa only
aooompliabed by short time, and by the
two earliest crops ever known and prob
ably tbe earliest that will be known in
our time.
At last, after nearly eix year*’ depres
sion, during which neerly everybody
seemed to want to sell everything and to
boy nothing, except to supply absolute
seeds, we are all atonoe in tbe midst of
a movement that looks like, a resurrec-
lion. Industry and commerce have woke
up throughout tbe whole world as if from
a long aleep, and in the very youth and
vigor of this movement we aro under the
necessity of reducing consumption to
bring it within tbe compass of this year’s
crop. We have no more reserve stock to
draw upon. It ia best that the world
should understand this at the beginning
of the season. At this point, another
question calls for answer. What price
will reduce consumption within the limit
required? Tbe most sagacious may well
confess his inability to answer it. Un
der ordinary oircumatancea many might
venture an answer satisfactory at least to
themaelvea. The consumers of and tra
ders in cotton goods have been bnyieg
from hand to mouth for yeare, and they
begin this season in a state of hanger
rarely if ever known before- One penny
or two penco advance was sufficient dur
ing the depression,, but it may well be
doubted it two pence at present would
have any influence at ail on consumption.
On tbo other hand, U. J. F., in tbe
same paper, replies at length to tho pre
sumptions naturally raised on tho fore
going. He reminds ns that ootton had
begun to weaken severely in price after
tbe panic of 1857, and that nothing but ftio
war saved it from proetraticn. That after
tbe war, the downward movement was
precipitous, though retarded by a fkli
Uoui and inflated w rrenoy. That after tho
panic of 1873, it beoame evident that tho
world was largely overstocked with cotton
fabrics, for which thero was no sale. A
third of the cotton machinery of Great
Britain stopped and tbe consumption of
cotton lint decreased correspondingly
from 60,000 to 40,000 balsa a week. That,
although it is true that tho I rodection of
raw cotton (Egyptian and .uast Indian)
has diminished correspondingly in the
past few years, yet this diminution is not
to be relied on as permanent, while on
the other hand, the facilities for tho
chcsp and rapid transportation of Asiatic
ootton have largely increased.
Again, it must ba remembered that the
very conditions which have produced
business activity in America are exercis
ing a depressing influence in Earopo.
Theorop failures which have brought an
Influx of money to Amcriox have, to that
extent, disabled trade in Europe; and al
though the momentary tendccoy of cot
ton may be upward, it is questionable
whether it will not meet with an effectual
oheck in an incoming crop of 5,500,000
bales, whioh ie now oamisg m at tbo rate
of 200,000 bales a week, and may be ex
pected at that rate for eight weeks to
oo mo.
Tuese suggestions are not without
force on both sides. The great trouble
with cotton is the poverty of th* people.
The improvement in the limes, so ftr ns
tbo great balk of mankind ie ooncerned,
is hardly worth a pinoh of salt. Some
branobca of trade havo brightened in
America, notably tho iron trade. But
the improvements here have been mainly
iooth Nothing like a vigorous and
healthful general trade yet exists even in
the Uaited Stales. And as to the ontaido
world in general, a condition of extreme
prostration is patent.
Io Europe (France exeepted) labor is
idle, hungry und naked. Tho Continen
tal oountries are frightfully crippled by
tbo waste of war and the incubus of
standing armies whioh are worse than
the locusts of Egypt. Half of the earth’s
population, to be fonnd in India and
China, baa been terribly impoverished by
successive famines. The bad weather
which has destroyed the crops of Europe
has been frightfully destructive of other
property in nearly every part of tha*
continent. In short, we fail to see any
clear and satisfactory indication of a
epeedy recurrence of those generally
prosperous times in which the great
masses of tbe world’s population will
again be comfortably fed and clothed.
When these occur there will be no excess
of ootton, and until they do occnr,
“trade in Manchester’’ will probably bo
slack.
But the talk of H. J. F. about an in
coming crop of 5,500,000 bales is a bar
ren ideality. Tbe actual crop will, as
we believe, be more than half a million
short of those figures; and it is not to be
reasonably doubted that a gradually di
minishing supply of raw cotton and man
ufactured goods, as well us a diminish
ing supply of olothing in wear must en
force some improvement in tbe cotton
trade Split the difference between E. J.
D. and H. 3. F., and it will bring ns to
what we think a probably correct view of
the situation.

What an Iktxlliosnt Flantzb Cax
do.—It was a great pleasure to tbo wri
ter yesterday to meet, after the lapse of
three decades of years, his old college
friend. Dr. William B. Jones, of Burke
coanty. Ths Doctor is one cf the mest
skillful and encceesfal farmers in Geor
gia, having devoted his whole life to Ag
ricultural pnrsnits in his native county.
Last year from 337 acres he raised, pack
ed and sent to market 250 bales of cotton
upon land seme of which had been clear*
ed ever since 1768.
*But by judicious fertilizing, rest and
rotation of crops, those old stampiees
fields to-day nre richer and more valua
ble than when first redeemed from the
virgin forest. This is the sort of agri
culture that is calculated to build up the
waste plains of Georgia, and cause her
red old hills to blossom like the rose.
The present year Dr. Jones cultivates
260 acres in the same variety cf
cotton, the Hetling teed, which is
wonderfully prolific, and expeots with a
late killing frost to hones, 200 baler.
The specimen s'alks from tbe field, of
this cotton, equal, if they do not excel
the “Boyd’s Prolific,” or any other sam
ples of upland eotto'S we have ever Been.
Dr. Jones has on exhibition many va
rieties of millet, Douro com, Gnlcea
com, Indian corn, field peas, and chnfas,
amounting in all to forty-five in number.
His exhibition, all the prodnet of hie
own industry, rtflecU honor upon -this

Uacon, Go.. October 39, 1879.
AFobced Exsibitioh.—Several con r
tribnlors to onr Slate Fair assort that it
ws3 with great diffioulty that they were
able to remove their entries from tho At'
lanta exhibition at the close cf last week.
An order was issued prohibiting the
delivery of Buy article whatever after it
bad been decided to poc'inua the fair
throngb the present week.
One gentleman protested against lhis ;
bat the managers were inexorable. It
waa not nntil he ha£ threatened to bring
Bait for damages that he snocieded in
getting possession of his goods and
brought thenf to tbe State Fair.
Another Macon exhibitor wa; subjected
to tbe eame treatment.
Now, we ask, was this right? And ia
that the way that the North Georgia Fair
Association redeems its promises not to
harm, bat supplement the Fair of tho
Stato Agricultural Society? Botn’in*
port*.
Close Youb Stoees.—Oaoo more we
earnestly request onr merchants and all
business houses in Macon to close their
doors to-day—at bast untjl two o’clock
p. m. It will do yon no harm, for the
whole resident und visiting population of
Macon will ba present at tbe nnveiling of
ihe Confederate Monument, and business
will bo at a stand still.
This concession is due to our peerless,
noble ladies, who have erected thie mon
ument, end now call upon their hus'
bauds, their fathers, their sons, their cous
ins, and alt who represent the manhood
of tho community, to cid ia the solemn
dedication sorvioss of this gay. Bat tho
argument is exhausted, and we havo
notbing farther to say on this enbjeot
save this: Macon expects erory man to
do his dnty.

Thebe is one thing we can eqnal At

had enough now to do uc for s space.
Savannah hag also had a big fire.
Kawb’a large bakery waa totally destroyed
early Monday morning; loss, $20,000;
insurance $126300.
Tobias bas finished his four hundred
and fifty miles in six days.
The last paper the Sparta Ishmaclito
sent forth he put his head under his arm
and said: “rhlsiB a trade issue." Well,
he ought te be ashamed.
Phonograph: Gubernatorial price-list:
Bacon at present is not advancing. Gar-
trell stock is considered slightly on the
advance. Lester is not molesting the
even tenor of things np this way, bathe
hold3 a good hand in Sonth Georgia. If
Turner waa not quite so slow, he might
have a fair following. However, he
“may be slow, bat sure.” Hardeman is
in possession of the tatismanio key, and
will be neok to neck .with same of the
other prominent candidates if he tarns it
right at the right time. Judge Warner
is popular, but is too reticent. When a
man wants an office these times, he has
to sing out. Successful office-getters do
not possess all tbe modesty ia the world.
Holcombe, of Milton, will cot stand much
of a showi g. His grammar is not rated
high. Hammond, of Thomae county, is
a bright, brilliant and altogether talent
ed gentleman. Bnt as a Chinaman-would
ray, he iatco “frrshee.” Like new wine,
Mr. Hammcud will improv-j by ago. Last
and least, we mention our (’present execu
tive. His chances are growin beautiful
ly leeB every day.
C: luxe os Times: Now that the Colum
bus Guards have molded to go to Maoou,
it is to be hoped the employers will give
as many leaves of absence ss they can.
Wa -wantColumbus well represented, and
to do this tbe ranks cf the Guards should
bo fell. From a telegram received yes
terday from Mr. W. G. Baoul, we learn
they will be provided with a . peoial oar.
At Geneva they will be joined by a com
pany from Talbotton. The Guards are
making extensive preparations for the
trip. They will mett at the armory to
morrow nigh: for drill.
Ectning -Vein: Teenty-fivo years ago
to hay, on the 25 b of October, 1854. was
mode the famous charge of the “Immor
tal Six Hundred” at the charge of Bsla-
klava, curing the Crimean war. This
body cf British cavalry started with 678
men, rank and file, under tbe oammand of
Lord Cardigan. The world is familiar
with the thrilling details of that desper
ate and deadly ride. Oce year ago only
170 of these veleran3 were alive. To day
this anniversary will be celebrated in
London with no liltie.ecZat, and wherever
British Boldiers are on dnty a recollection
cf that eventful day will be celebrated.
The eurvivora are scattered to tho four
corners of the world. There are two of
them in Augusla, and many others, in
Dr. Fold thanked tb: meeting fur t> e

privilege, that of citissnshlp in a rtpre-
eentatire Bepobiis-n government—me
beet form of gonruinent that man tan

it is the most oorrupt government the
woTld ever esw, who would not rather
belong to it than any other on earth ?
They had before them Major Camming,
mud that title, Major, which he reoeived
from the dead Confederacy, was the
proudest he could bear. The people
made him Senator in the State Senate,
and had watched his coarse with deep
interest. Wno was there who had not
aeon with pride tbe iefluenoe that he
wielded in the Assembly and gloried In
his triumphs, even thongh bis vote might
be opposed to their conviotiacs? His
constituents had colled npon him to give
an explanation of his coarse ia the Ben-
frog trial, and ho csrne now cheerfully to
comply with tbeir reqaest.
Hon. EL Clay Faster arose amid ap
plause to introduce Mij. Camming. He
said the purpose of the meeting had been
fully explained. The act/ devolved upon
bim was due more to the proprieties of
the occasion than to any necessity for an
introduction. Ail would accord to Maj.
Camming in this, as in all hie other acte,
that he, bad acted patriotically, sincerely,
and for what he believed to be the best
interests of this commonwealth.
Maj. Camming eame forward amid
great applsnse, and proceeded to give bis
reasons for his course in the trial. A
full stenographic report of theaddre s
was taken down, and will appear in tho
Chronicle at an cgrly d*y. It was received
with frequent applatue, and ths Major
wsa heartily congratulated.

Under the oiicumstanois, it would ap
pear that the Incendiary mast have done

During the fire, Mr. Budolph Myer,

The Advance in Citt Bondi.—We
notice a very dooided advenes m city
bonds in the past few days, they having
gone np about foar points singe Thurs
day. This ia duo probably in come de
gree to (be general advance which all
ciseses of securities have recently expe-
ienced, bnt tho main cause doubtless is
that public confidence in the new city
bonds is being folly restored. We are
informed that there is money enough si

Baxnsuidge Democrat: An attempt
was made last week to prison the family
of Me. J. D. 'J albot, who lives on tho
west side of the river in this county,
eight nr ten miles from IJiinbridge. At
the supper table Me- Talbot kook a piece
of bam in bis mouth and finding it ix
tremely bitter threw it out to a cat, at
the eame time remarking to his wife that
something was wrong abjut the ham.
He became very sick and vomited. In
the meantime tbe cat be bad thrown tbe
ham to took convulsions and in a short
time died. This caused Mr. T. to suspi
cion that oomathing was wrong snre
enough. Hext morning ho gave a piece
of the bam to a dnok, which also died.
His cnsplclons wero now thoroughly
aroused, bo instigated a search for a bot
tle of strychnine which be had in the
house, but which could not he found.
Tne whole affair was kept quiet, and on
Saturday Mr. Talbot brought tbe ham to
town and had Mr. William McLendon to
apply chamioal teats to the small parti
cles of a light substance fonnd on it.
These tesls satisfied Mr. McLendon that
tbe substance was etryohnine. Mr. Tal
bot's colored cook was’immediately ar
rested as the gmltv party and lodged In
jail to await her trial before tho Jaslice
Monday morning. Monday she was tried
beforo Judge Westmoreland and the evi
dence, thongh circamsitntial, being very
strung against ber, she was bound ever
in the sum of $500 lo appear at the Su
perior Court and stand for trial. Failing
to give the bond, she was recommitted to
jail. Mr. nod Mrs. Talbot placed the
utmost confidence in ihe honesty of the
negro wcm&a and allowed her to carry
the keys. They had been away from
home a day and night, sad just returned
the evening of the poisoning.”
We learn from the Thomasvillo Times
that two colored youths were indulging
ia a game of warming each other’s jack
ets with sticks os the oorner of Broad
and Jackson streets thero the ether day,
when a blow atraok a ooncealed pistol in
the pocket of one cf them. The pistol
went off, and so did the bay at a double
quick. The grand jury has been inquir
ing into the matter.
The Constitution, in speaking of the
Atlanta Fair, makes this confession: Not
one Atlsntian in fifty has bsen ta the
grounds at oil.
Thai is a and Stats of affairs, and wo
bops that the same charge may not be
brought against tbe average Maconite
at the close of tbe week.
The Brunswick Advertiser tells of a
mo3t dastsidly murder which occurred at
McDonald’s mill on the Brunswick and
Albany Railroad a week ago aa follows:
‘It seom3 a colored man named Jackson,
was sitting in one of the mill shanties,
playing cards, when Watson, another
colored nun, came in and picked np a
caoked potato belonging to Jackson. A
few words passed between them, when
Wat.on plunged his knife into Jarkson’a
throat, killing him instantly, and then
fled. The Mcrsrs. McDonald attempted
to arrest him, but he could not be found.
That night, however, he returned and sat
np with tho corpse until daylight and
again hied away to the woads/and np to
this writing has not pnt in his appear
ance. Hangiaq would le too goad for
the scoundrel.”

LIVER PILLS
FOR THE PJJjtE qf
Hepatitis, or Liver Ggmplaint,
DYSPEPSIA AND SICK HXADACU?.
Symptoms of a Diseased Liver/
P AIN in the right side, under tha
edge of the ribs, increases on pres
sure ; sometimes the pain is in the left
side; the patient is rarely able to ]ie
on the left side; sqmetimes the pain
is felt under the shoulder blade, and
it frequently extends tp the top of the
shoulder, and is sometimes mistaken
for rheumatism in the arm. The stpnj-
ach is affected with loss of appetite
and sickness; the bpwcls in general
are costive, sometimes alternative with
lax; the head is troubled with pain,
accompanied with -a dull, heavy sen
sation in the back part. There is gen
erally a considerable loss of memory,
accompanied with a painful sensation
of having left undone something which
ought to have been done. ’’A slight,
dry cough is sometiir,ea an attendant.
The patient complains of wcdHhflbs
and debility; he is easily startled, his
feet are cold or burning, and he com
plains of a prickly sensation of the
skin; Ids spirits are low; and although
he is satisfied tha) e^erpi^e wPu!4 be
beneficial to him, yet he can scarcely
summon up fortitude enough to try it.
In fact, he distrusts every remedy.
Several of the above symptoms attend
the disease, but cases have occurred
vhere few of them existed, yet exam
ination of the body, after death, has
shown the liver to have been exten
sively deranged.
AGUE AND FEVER.
Dr. C. McLane’s Liver Pills, pi
cases of Ague and Fever, when
taken with Quinine, are productive of
the most happy results. No better
cathartic can be used, preparatory to,
or after taking Quinine. We would
advise all who are afflicted with this
disease to give them a fair trial.
For all bilious derangements, and
as a simple purgative, they arc un
equaled.
BEWABE OF IMITATIONS.
The genuine are never sugar coated.
Every box has a red wax seal on the

The distinctive feature, cl thtaipoot ootton are
that le ie made Irom the very finest
SEA s ISXAND COTTON.
It Is finished soft as the cotton from which it
ismade;ithas no waxing or artificial finish to
decaive th* eyes; ir is the strongest, smoothest
and most elastic sewing thread in the market;
for machine sewing it has no equal; it is wonnd
on
WHITE SPOOLS.
The Blarir is the most perfect
JET SLACK
ever produced in spool cotton, being dvei by a
a? stem patented by ourselves. The colors are
c-yed by the caw
ANILINE PROCESS,
renderirg them so perfect and brilliant that I
dressmakers everywhere use them instead of
so wing silks.
A gold medal was awarded this spool cotton at
Pans, 1878. for •‘great strength** and "general
excellence/* being the highest awsrd f ivea for
spool cotton.
We invite comparison and respectfully aik
ladies to give it a fair trial and convince them [
selves of its superiority over all others.
