Gen. Longstreet’s Address.
At the Grant anniversary cele
brarion in Bostoti Monday, Gen.
Longstreet arose and delivered one
of the most eloquent tributes to the
union leader that was heard any¬
where during the day.
Longstreet was one of the most
brilliant of the southern generals.
Grant himoelf in hi# memoirs pays
him a hlgh*tribute at “brave, hon
est, intelligent and a very capable
soldier.” As to his abilities as a
fighter, Grant certainly had occas¬
ion to know. The armies of the
northern leader bore the wounds in
fiicted by Longstreet’s men and the
southern general himself carries a
mark left by Grant’s bullets. Now
that the ex-confederate soldier has
arisen In a northern city to testify
to the warmth of his feeling for his
fofmerenemy, it Is indeed time to
bclbrtre that the bitterness of war¬
fare has passed away. The greet¬
ing which was offered to Gen.
Longstreet in Boston was a sincere
lecognition of the universal willing
nesi to forget, and when the actual
participants in tlie tragedy of the
war have forgotten their bitterness
the rest of the public cannot but
follow the example.—Chicago Re

GEORGIA CROPS.

From replies received from hundreds
of correspondents to whom qntfctions
were sent the following summary,of the
crop has been made:

cotton growing sections of Middle and
Southwest Georgia the increase is 10 per
cent, bat the average for the state is
brought op to 18 per cent by the increase
in the northern and southeastern sec

»6is wrea<^ over . last . year

that of 1804 by 7 to 8 Per cent. The
sale of fertilisers has slightly exceeded
that of 1894, Slid the knowing ones iu
listed, therefore, tliat the acreage in
cotton would be greater than that year,
but tho .hi. dv-M

sons would therefore account for the iu

increase in the cotton acreage.

COHV.
I regret to loam that the acreage of

year. I fear this is a mistake on the
part of our farmers, which can still be
remedied to some extent by planting The
liberally of peas and potatoes.
stands of corn are reported good, and
the land and crops in good condition,
though the drought of April has pre¬
vented any very rapid growth.
OATS.
The acreage In oats is reported for the
state practically the some as last year.
Amount of the crop sowed in the fall 47
per cent. Prospect fair for a good oat
crop.
WHEAT.

crease of 8 to 9 per cent.
gia, however, where most of the wheat
in the state is grown, shows an acreage
of 97, while it puts the condition and
prospect for a crop at 104 per cent aa
compared with last year.
StTOAB CASE.
There is on increase of 2 cent in
this crop, with a good stai And os
sorghum is reported at 98 per cent of
last year’s crop, the prospect is fair that
we will have plenty of sugar and syrup
tor home use.
RICE.
For the state, lowland rice (which is
planted chiefly in the coast counties),
shows a falling off of 8 per cent, while
upland rice (whioh grows In every see
tlon of the state) is dropped to the ex¬
tent of 9 per cent. I regret to see any
falling off of this crop, which is so easily
made, and then is so nutritions and
palatable to man and beast.
