Good Rains -Good Crops. Our exchanges from the Southwest, particu larly those from Texas, Arkansas and Louisi ana, speak of the good rains that have fallen, and of the promising appearance, generally, of the crops. Oats seem to have partially failed, while a fair crop of wheel is expected to be harvested. But corn and cotton are reported to bo in un commonly line condition, with, perhaps, here and there an exception. The South really seems likely sjon to be herself again. Crops look especially line along the line of toe Iron Mountain railway. FLORIDA. The International Drill—The South Moves to the Front. In the recent international drill at Washing ton the supeiiority of the citizen soldiery of the South has been again demonstrated.

The boom in real estate: the founding and building up of new towns, and the additions to ard improvement of older towns in Arkansas (and,in fact in all the Southern States) has been just cause for a feeling of pride and jubilant comment; but the prohibition movement in several, and the educational movement in Ar kansas afford still higher cause for exultation. In Arkansas cities seem to bo voting on a special tax. As an index to public sentiment and true progress we are glad to note that the people are for the additional taxation. In Lit tle Rock on the. vote forfive millsadditioral tax, it stood <529 for and only two against. This is a grand showing, and demonstrates true pro gress—not only onward, but upward. Until since the war, when Little Rock estab lished a good system of public schools, it was almost a way landirg on the Arkansas ri ver, now it is a city that is an honor to the Slate of Arkansas, and nothing has done no more to wards bringing it up to that position than the excellence of its free schools, and the great un animity in which the people vote the full five mills tax.

I was sitting by the window just now sewing on soft white lawn—yes, making the dress niy little (?) sister is soon to wear as she stands, “When the brook and river meet” and bids farewell to School days In her graduating role at commencement soon to take place. Sitting there by the window, the forked lightning flashed as if down my needle, so it being too dark to sew any way, I folded work and walked out on the front porch. There sat little Ethel, in the queerest position; a funny old hat on her head, a box and some apples in her lap. She was irresistible; so going up to her, I placed my hand under her chin preparatory for a kiss, when she exclaimed, “Oh! don’t; 1 am having my picture taken.” Sure enough, one of her aunties sat a little way off wtih pen cil and card in hand sketching her. I left them alone and concluded to come and draw some chat sketches with Aunt Judy's young folks. Net long since I went over to spend an after noon at a neighbor’s. Two lovely little ones accompanied by their grandmother walked part of the way back wit h us. The little boy of five summers with beautiful brown eyes, and wearing his first pants, ran ahead followed by his liille sister, two years younger, with flaxen hair and blue eyes. Reaching the stile at the foot of the hill, they both seated them selves and chatted lovingly together. It was a beautiful picture. I could not refrain from exc aiming, “How beautiful! 1 wish an artist were here.” Over the stile they bounded at our approach ami ran on to the old brancji where children from time immemorial have delighted to fish atd wade, but Flaxen-hair was too lady-like to walk in the water, she in sisted on walking across on the logs which answer as a crossing. The red J line-apples are ripe now and the children come every day with their li-tie In dian baskets to pick them up. Who was it crying this morning at the bar? Little Frank. He was in the orchard and could not get out. So auntie ran an i helped him over. She found him peeping through the bars and crying with all his might, but a red apple, knocked down with a long cane, was sufficient panacea for his grief. Outran the other children and all had t) Lave apples. Rain, rain—how refreshing! It has been dry so long, but now we are having a good, life-giving rain. Run to your studies now children, and let’s stop chatting. I expect those letter-writers wish wo would stop taking their space. Maybe next time I come I can tell you a tale—would you like that? In the mean time, I will give you some questions to answer for yourselves, to fill up your vacant moments if you have any such. Why is the Irish potato the tread-soft’s net tle’s cousin? Are cats and tigers kin? Dear Cousins: J Tis the calm still hour of evening. “Silence, like a gentle spirit,” is brooding over the quiet earth, and as i sit and watch the sun sink slowly behind the western horizon, my thoughts wander to Aunt Judy’s sanctum, and l am persuaded to again intrude myself on auntie and cousins, but will prom ise not to detain you very long—only wish to have a little chat with you. At the conductors’ picnic at Spring Bank. I had the inexpressible pleasure of meeting our “Guiding Star,” our gifted and most distin guished Monk, sweet little (’alia Lily, and sweet amiable Bonny Sweet Bessie. I can scarcely realize it, but, nevertheless, it is really true. 1 er joyed the day hugely, and think every one did. To me it was a pleat-ant dream, “an oasis in my deseit.” The only thing that marred the pleasures of the day, was the rain, and wo* st of all, no shelter. I felt “slightly disfigured” when 1 reached home, but. would gladly go over the day again. Red Head, I often think of our ride on the freight train; I enjoyed it exceedingly, if it was rough, and was sorry when we came to our journey’s end. Blanche Harrison, I have? collected over a thousand stamps for you, and will send them real soon. Won’t you toil us what the French government want with the stamps? Jack Sticks. 1 saw vour ^jioto not long { since; and girls, let mo wnijqTr gentlj—he is ' just as handsome as can be. Tom Canty, J am just as sorry a scan be, that I did not get your letter. Can’t see why it did not reach me. I’ll confess I cannot write much, cousin Tom, but I would have scribbled an answer to your letter. Zephyr, I ask again, where are you? Are you lost, strayed or stolen? Catty Lee, Jet me extend to you my band of greeting. I am happy to .see your bl ight face among us.

Clubbed with Dailies at Less than the Price One. By special arrangement with the leading publishers we are able to oiler the most liberal clubbing rates that have ever been presented to the public. Examine the list and see for yourself. Any leading paper or magazine may be secured with the Slnnv South at very nearly the price of one. For instance, the reg ular subscription price to l'uck is $5 and the Sunny South $2, but we furnish them both for $5.75. No subscription for less than a years will be forwarded for other publications. All complaints in regard to other papers must be addressed to the publishers of those papers, and not to the Sunny South. The Sunny South must be included in each and every order for any other publication. 1 hat is, a person cannot order one copy of the St nny South and two, three, or a half adozen other papers. The Sunny South must be or- dered with each. We give our old subscribers the benefit of these clubbing rates when they renew for a year, but they cannot renew their subscriptions with other papers though this scheme. They can only get the benefit of these rates when ordering publications to which they are not al ready subscribers. Examine the list and secure your reading matter at these reduced fimires. The offer is unparalleled. The list includes about all the leading journals and magazines in the United States, and the figures opposite each include that publication and the St nny South both for one year.
