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 “"*• _ Tfce Chairman Issues lastrac JjOfg, To the Democrats of Habersham Co.; Aa yon are no doubt aware a primary election, for the purpose of V of the house of repreoentarives and for all county officers, including three county commissioners, has been called for June 6th, 189*.

I regret to loam that the acreage of com is from 5 to 6 per cent less thou last 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.

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.
