Col. Thus. Ilardcmau, in a letter

to b'3 dooliued if protiered by the

lieve such an amount can be pick

cat ions arc that prices will be low

will come the money for provisions
bought at credit figures ? Would
it not be the exorcise ot prudence
to call a halt, and plant corn suffi

cotton, and rink the danger of be

Two weeks arc allowed for the

pensation for tho enumerators d us
follows: Two cents for each living
inhabitant, two cents for each death
reported, ten cents for each tann,
fifteen cents for each mamifa toiy,
which is to he in full for all servi
ces and no mileage or travelling

We learn from the Macon Tele
graph that the most painful feature
of the Sam Hoyle case is that the
aged mother of the unfortunate
man is ignorant even of tho dis
grace, much less the death of her
son. All newspapers containing
any allusion to his uiioide have been
carefully withheld from her, and
she does not know but that a hu.si-
ness call has absented him from
Atlanta. The knowledge of his
crime and death must now be im
parted to her at once and it is fear
ed she will not survive the shock.

The Near Future.
The Columbus Knquiri r in a re
cent issue, speaking of the future
cotton crop and its probable con
sequences says: “Cotton is now de
clining. Last year at this time it
was advancing, it is estimated
that 300,000 hales of the present
season will be carried over to the
next. The prospect is that a larg
er area will be planted this year
than last.. It is certain that an im
mensely increased amount of fer
tilizers have been purchased on
credit. It is equally as well as
certained that a sufficiency of grain
has not been planted, and that the
great dependence, oats, is turning
out badly. The statisticians arc at
Dunth of Mr. Silua Stephens.
