wmm ISER. ADVERTISER PUBLISHING CO Gedartown, G-a., Mav 1st 1 WM. BRADFORD, - Editor There are certain classes of pro. pile, editors and politicians of various grades of reapectabilitv, who have al ways taken peculiar delight in find ing fault with Gov. Colquitt and the manner in which he has administer fd the affairs of the State. Such people have made up and announced their estimate of the Governor \and were, in the beginning, determined to believe that he was not the man 'for the place, that he has not suffieen t capacity, especially in the way of financial tact and management, to ful chief magistrate of the State. Hence they eagerly | al| d charge it as gambling. ADVICE TO COTTOS PLANTERS. How to Net Ten Cents Per Pound on the Next Crop. W>- commend the advice contained in the letter below to the car-fill con sideration rf f nr farmers. Wi ileal: gambling in cotton futures on the part of the planters is dangerous, yet as there cm b little hope that lie next cotton crop, r ,li around, will sell even as high as eight tents, i! things take their usual course, some good might be accomplished by sell ing at ten cents on the terms given in this c immunitation : Editors Chronicle and Constitution alist : The price of cotton having ad vanced since the crop ha? gone out ol the hands of the producer, which is so often the case, to a price there is some remuneration in its produc tion, it becomes now the duty of tile producers to consider seriou.-ly the situation. Many farmers and plant ers have conscientious scruples in bnyng and s lliug futures in cotton, To such Okcfei okee Swamp, call attention to and magnify everv mistake and appareut mistake made by himself, bis subordinates in office 'or any one connected with his ad ministration. They go farther and become facetious over the Governor’s fondness for attending Sunday- school conventions and religious re vivals and very clearly insinuate that this weakness, a3 they arc pleased to term it, interferes with the discharge of his official duties. Charges of this kind have imposed upon many people, acting in good faith, and without any sinister motives, they have been lead to adopt these views. In reply to such charges we need on ly point to the results. Since Gov. Colquitt came into office the stand ing and credit of the State, at home and abroad, have been steadily ris ing. While the administration has con ceived and executed uo striking and brilliant feats of statesmanship— and we have been in no need of such feats—vet we fail to remember any mistake, any instance of neglect of official duty, materially affecting the welfare and interests of the State. We think indeed, that Governor Colquitt has not only performed the duties of hi3 office as honestly and conscientiously ns his friends all ex- . pacted he would, but with more skill and judgment than a great majority of-the people hoped for. While on the subject we had as well note the fact that all, or nearly all, the adverse criticism that i3 heaped upon Gov. Colquitt and his administration conus from those who have a favorite selected for the next I do not propose to tamper with their i oner sensibilities, but permit me to i state for the benefit of the planting | interest that the crop to be grown Ibis year can now be sold f.r ne-xt fall delivery at a price that will net over ten cents at the nearest depot of the producer. I have no advice to advance to the farmers, for cotton may rule lower or higher, but vve have an opportn uity pi ese. ted where by we can make some money in planting which I might say is not usual and I do feel we should give the situation some consideration. .Many producers are not aware that they Could sell h-ss than one hundred bales of cotton, but they can e nrbine and selUnieor more hundred bales. Being a plan ter and feeling a deep ime-nst in my brethren of the plow, I tliro-.v out this hint for their con sideration. lie.- pectin liv, 'f. J. Smith. The next national census is expect ed to show some great and gratifying resul's for some of the Southern States, and indeed for the whole South, in the decade which will then have gone into histoiy since the pre vious census. The act of Congress for taking this census provides, among »i iier things, that tiie enumeration sliaii commence on tlx* liist Monday in f June. 1880, and that the rst i.f J un-. lu cities of more than ten thousand inhabitants the count must be com pleted in two we ks. The President is to appoint one hundred and fifty supervisors of the census, and tin- cost of the enumeration is limited to ¥$00,000, five-sixths of which amount is appropriated by the bill.

He gives ids name as Jam -s Williams, alias Jas. Eobberson, and is now in jail, in di - fault of a ¥1000 bond, awaiting trial. Good citizens every where should take an active interest in arresting and punishing these mid a iglu ma rauders. There is a well organiz.-d gang of them and no man’s property or life is safe until it is* broken up They are operating in ten or fifteen- counties in North Georgia and Ala bama. An impromptu case or two of hemp pulling by tile uext of this gang that are caught would clear up the atmophere wonderfully. This is almost the oulv argument. that will reach them too, for the gang is so extensive and so well organized that they care very little for the usual .Country jail. Break ing jail is a mere pass-time. Even when brought to trial they usually have plenty ol henchmen around to swear that they are persecuted patriots and ns inno cent as white robed angels. The country can rid itself of this gang by a systematic, organized effort, and nothing less will do it. °f k< r 'li-j Japan an eni m n a? naa le ler- be taken, classes of ! ed the census of Alliens especially with reference t- the people and taxabh* property.

Failing to do this, his property might be confiscated and himself scourged and sold for a ■-lave. Augustus enlarged the scope and improved the mail r of taking the census.

Lieut. Iluuter, in his survey, makes (he area of this basin about 1,000 square miles, of which the swamp proper covers about 500 square miles; and the average eleva tion above tide., water is 110 feet. The swamp has several islands in it, from one to six miles in IcnghMi, and a quarter to a half mile iu wi..th. The principal growth on • n these ides is pine, cypres?, and |obl-illy hay;' of the last of which I L eut. Hunter says, there are mu- Davis cu ny groves with trees of remarkable siz ', and very symmetrical, present ing a magnificent appearance; s mi * of the trees measuring from SO to 90 feet to (In* first branches. The lar gest, area of the swamp is made up of prairies and savannas, with ecc i- sional bodies of dense undergrith of lie-tic- and bamboo briers. The surface ir always wet and sometimes entirely covered with water, except the is’anus. There are also x number of lakes or large ponds, frequented by a great variety of water fowl. Fresh water trout are caught m these hikes, weighing from 5 to 9 pound?. Perch chun and bicam are also plentiful. In fact, with the great number of deer and bear on the islands, and all the varieties of wild duck, crane, curlew, etc., this must he one of the •‘paradises” for hunters, which are so often hunted for but seldom found. Many of the lakes and ponds are con nected by narrow channels, and can he reached in boats from the main land.
