In 1658 the rich alluvial lands of
Ashley county, in the southeastern
portion of Arkansas, readily com
manded from $25 to $50 per acre, and
the uplands from $5 to $10 per acre,
but now these lands average only
about $6 to $15 per acre in the low
lands, and the hill lands can be bought
for from $1 to $5. The excessive cul
tivation of cotton is the cause.

Tiie Rome Cotton Factory yester
day received an order for a large
shipment of thread, which the man
agement had to decline to till because
of previous orders. The demand for
this factory’s goods is so igreat that
it cannot be met by three-fourths of
the orders received. Less than
year ago the first brick of this factory
waslaid. In less than eight months
from the time its erection began, the
factory was turning out thread. This
beats anything of the kind ever ac
complished in the South before.—

Tiie New York Evening Post re
marks : “It is said that by local op
tion elections in Georgia, the saloons
ail fifty counties have been closed.
This is better success than has attend
ed this method of restricting the evils
of intemperance in other localities.
Ghe difficulty with this plan lias
been that after a community has de
cided not to permit licenses to be
granted, it has not had moral force
sufficient to compel obedience to the
law which forbids selling without a
license. In Georgia, however, a more
effective public sentiment seems to
prevail^ for it is said that the moral
force that carried the elections against
licenses has been; sufficient to enforce
the-btw.”
A Mwissippi planter, writing to
Ilradstreet, says the plain truth is
that rotten has not been, and, under
the- present system, cannot be pro
duced for less than 9 or 10 cents per
pound, actual cost. Take the aver
age price paid to planters, and they
do not receive more for cotton than
the cost of production; hence, as a
class they have not made any money
for tiie past ten years. He says a
change is inevitable, and that the
planters must either produce other
things or make cotton at less cost.
Many farmers have gone to stock
raising on lands fitted for that pur
pose. Improved implements are solv
ing come labor difficulties. The fi
nancial condition of Mississippi plan

they have been making money, but

economized more severely than any
one imagined was possible, and there

The English sparrow has been of
late years introduced in some Geor
gia towns, being regarded as it were,
a harmless and attractive littlejiet.
To such as would encourage the pres
ence of the little creature, we would
commend the following in regard to
him from the Philadelphia Times:
“The sparrow is feirgame for every
body now—for boys and cats and all
who can aid in his extermination.
Under the protection of our benificent
laws this ruthless invader has over
run the whole country round about
Philadelphia and driven out the na
tive birds, any one of which is worth
a dbzen sparrows. He is to have this
protection no longer. Henceforth he
is to be recognized tiie outlaw that
ho is, and every man’s hand may
now be against him, as his hand or
bill ban been against everything that
interfered with his convenience. In
heriting all tiie bad traits with no
nobler quantiles', the- sparrow has
made himself a universal nuisance
in this land of bis adoption, and
every one should recognize that in
housing, fesdiagor otherwise encour
aging the little brute, be is givbg
aid and comfort to-ajrablic enemy.”
Crops in Georgia.
Commissioner of Agriculture Hen
derson has concluded a consolidation
of crop reports for June 1. The condi
tion of corn, as compared with the
same time last year, is 90 per cent.
The heavy rains in the early spring
and an unprecedented cool and dry
May greatly retarded the growth and
encouraged the attack of the cut
worm. The yield of oats will be about
88 per cent, of an average. This foil
ing off is due almost entirely to the
fact that spring sown oats have been
caught by the May drought. There
being no rust of consequence, the
yield of wheat will he 93 per cent, of
the average. The quality is excel
lent, the crop being almost free from
rust. The stand of cotton is 94 per
cent, of an average, and the condition
is 94 per cent. The plant is back
ward and smaller than usual. The
general prospect, while not very en
couraging, is by no means gloomy.
Lowell, Mass., consumed 85,297,-
322 gallons, of water during May. The
statistics on beer are not given, which
would doubtless be more considerable.

THE ROMANCE* OV NUMBERS.
What Fire Centimes Banked 1800
Years Ago at Compound Interest
Would Amount To.
N. O. Timcs-Democrat.
There is a romance in numbers—
the romance of enormity! Aneri
cans calculate, itmust be remembered,
after the French fashion. With us
a billion is not, as with the English,
a million of millions, but simply a
thousand of millions; and a trillion
is not a billion of (English) billions,
but a thousand billions. The Eng
lish reckoningissimpiyterrific when
we start upwards from billions (mil
lions of millions) to trillions, quad
rillions, quintillions, sextillions, sep-
tillions, octillions, etc. So vast are
these English numbers that they are
partially valueless—imaginary. They
cannot be applied even to the ealeu
lations of astronomical distances.
And these distances daze human
understanding. Twelve degrees east
of Alpha Capricorn there is a nebulae,
—bright, flat, ring-shaped,—which is
sneraliy believed to be a solar sys-
;m ’in process of formation—a vast
whirl of incandescent gas gradually
shaping itself into suns and worlds.
It is a spark in any but the most pow
erful microscopes, yet it is 264 billion!
times (in American numbers), larger
than our sun. And our sun is 1,283,-
700 times larger than this world.
Therefore the nebula itself is 338
quadrillions, 896' trillions 800 billion
times larger than the earth.
Now these numbers seem enough
to bewilder any mind ; but they are
as nothing to numbers which have
been already used. Flammarion,the
astronomer, makescurious mention of
the highest number ever calculated
by mortal man. It was undecillions
millions billions, trillions, quadril
lions quintillions, sextillions, septil
lions, octillions, nonillions, decillions,
undecillions. Calculation might in
deed go further—to duodecillions,
tredecillions, etc. Tredecillions car
ries us only to the thirteenth numer
ical type from millions—centillions
would carry us to the hundredth.
But to return to the modest un4e-
cillion. It has been calculated by
Frenchman that the tiny sum of n\ _
centimes, banked at the birth of Jesus
Christ, would have accumulated at
compound interest by this time to the
amount of 342,653,248,699,000,000,000,-
000,000,000,009,000,000 francs !—or 345
undecillions, 653 decillions, 248 non
illions, 609 septillions of francs. And
please remember this is only the sim
ple and modest French system of cal
culation—not the tremenduous Eng
lish system.
Now how much money docs this
amount represent ? If all the moun
tain ranges in the world were conver
ted into diamonds, they would not
represent such a value; nor could all
the railroads of the globe convey
such a sum. If the earth itself were
turned into one solid mass of gold—
in which case it would weigh 3 1-2
times more than at present—its value
in French money would not even ap
proach undecillion ; it would only he
69,910,800,000,000,000,000,000—or 69
sextillions, 910 quintillions, 800 quin,
tillions of francs. If an ingot of gold
as big as the world were to fall from
heaven every minute for 9,000 years,
it would require ali those ingots to
pay that sum of undecillions. Even
in astronomy undecillions are not
used. Probably the life of suns does
not reach nearly so extraordinary a
figure in years.

fruits and vegetables, they would not
only benefit themselves, but in the
long ran educate the country to the
knowledge of the value of a fruit or
vegetable diet. While there has
been in this regard a great improve
ment in New England within twenty-
years, altogether too much meat and
too few vegetables and too little fruit
are partaken of for health, to say
nothing of luxury. It has been more
a matter of cost than of possibilities.
Heretofore the South has not raised,

A FIGHTING FUGITIVE.
After Killing a Horae and Wound
ing one of His Pursuers, is Cap
tured.
Chatuanooga Timet.
News reached this city yesterday
that Post office Inspector Frey had at
last succeeded in capturing Robert
Lee, the postmaster or Driskel, Ala.,
who was arrested afew days since for
selling stamps at a discount and who
subsequently escaped by jumping
from a car near Larkinsville, Ala.,
Thursday night while being taken to
jail in Huntsville.
After Lee escaped from the train,
Inspector Frey went to Huntsville to
procure men to assist him in his search
for Lee. In company with W. F.
Barber and A. H. Harper he return
ed to Larkinsville. He there learn
ed where Lee had spent the night
and that he was hiding in the moun
tains a few miles east of that place,
intending to return to Collinsville,
his home, when he had baffled his
pursuers. He soon heard, however,
that Inspector Frey was on his track,
and knowing the latter’s disposition
concluded to flee the country.
The officers, pursued him about
twenty-five miles, and when over
taken in a deep ravine he swore he
never would be taken alive, and
when the officers approached he open
ed fire on them. The first shot kill
ed Inspector Frey’s mule and also
grazed his leg. A general firing was
tiien commenced, in which Mr. Har
per was wounded and had to retire.
Lee’s ammunition gave out and he
finally surrendered. He remarked
after being recaptured that had his
ammunition held out he would have
never surrendered, as he much pre
ferred death to serving a long term
in the Albany, New York, peniten
tiary. He is now in jail at Hunts
ville.
War Memories.
Inter-Ocean.
The babies whose wondering eyes
looked up into the faces of their foth
ers in the swift moments of strange
good-byes twenty-two; years ago, are
now men and women. The sweet
hearts who in the days of 1861 saw
their lovers as heroes in a tremend
ous struggle, can count gray hairs in
their heads, and it may be wrinkles
on their faces. The wives who awoke
from the prose of commonplace life
to the emotional intensity or a dram
atic existence when their husbands
left them for duty in the army; the
mothers whose hearts for three years
werefstirred to wild flutterings with
every word of news from the front,
are old women now or in their graves!
The men whose patriotism and hot
impulses carried tliem with a sweep
like thatof a flood into thearmy,and
the women whosearmsandheadsand
hearts never tired in the planuing
and doing for the absent soldiers, are
passing away. The hoys who grew
up in homes where there were only
the memory of a father, and the girls
who took their first lessons in sewing
on clothes for absent loved ones, are
the men and women who shape pub
lic sentiment now.
The Planets in June.
Providence Journal,
Neither planets nor moon make a
brilliant appearance on the June re
cord. The most noteworthy planets,
Venus, Jupiter and Saturn, are not
in their brightest aspects, and the les
ser planets are of small account. But
the glorious sun makes up for defi
ciencies in his family of worlds. On
the 21st, at two o’clock in the after
noon, he reachesthe summorsolstice,
and seemingly standing still four
days before and four days after the
event, rejoices in*£he perfection of
his own handiwork the northern
belt of the earth that lies in verdure
clad under the power of his life-giv
ing rays. Then, after grazing tl e
Tropic of Cancer, his highest north
ern point, he turns his face southward
and though his influence continues
to be felt, the culmination of summer
has been reached, the daylight less
ens, the darkness increases.
A Jerseyman called upon a New
York lawyer the other day and an
nounced that his rich brother had
drawn up a will and died, and that—
“Ah! I see!” interrupted the at
torney, “and you want me to bust it.
Veiy well, sir; we’ll plead insanity.”
‘Oh, no—he wasn’t insane. You
see, the will leaves everything to—”
“To his second wife, orsomechurch
or college. Have no fears, my dear
sir. I can bust the business sky-high,
We’ll plead undue influence.”
“For heaven’s sake don’t do it!”
“But I must and shall bust the
will.”
“Then, I’ll have to find a lawyer
who can’t, for its drawn in my favor,
and I wantto beat ali the other heirs!”
Ah! certainly! thatalters the case.
Your brother was sane, sensible, and
in perfect health: and all the law
yers this side of Halifax can’t break
the will! Sit down, sir.”
