Terry was a terror; and his wife was a terrorer. Cleveland and Harrison both landed at a pier in New York the other day at the same hour. Harrison landed there a head of Gover last November. The danger is that the experiments with the new elixir will be made too hastily. The profression should move carefully and cautiously in the matter. Human lild is involved. II there is any gooe in it, it will be best brought by a careful and studied series of ex periments. -«*••••—■— For One Year. John Sullivan has been tried and convicted of prize fighting in the state of Mississippi. The Judge sentenced him to one year in prison. His law yers took an appeal, and Sullivan was released on bond. The authorities will land him in prison at the end of the legal fight, unless he leaves the country. Score the last knock down for Gov. Lowry. ’Twould Make it Cash. If the Brady bill becomes a law it will have the effect of making the guano business a cash one. Manu facturers would hardly take the chances of selling on a credit, an ar ticle which many will swear, in open court, is Worthless. Well, it would be a good thing, perhaps, if farmers were forced to pay cash lor the stuff. Cash transactions arc always best for the farmer. And then, it he had to pay down, he would use less of the slink ing stuff, and he would know that it was yotxl, before paying his hard earn ed dollars lor it. Georgia Pine Best. Georgia pine is constantly appre ciating. Its beauty is not better at tested than its durability. Mr. Dan Callahan, an old ami experienced railroad contractor, recently removed an oak trestle on the New Orleans and Northeastern railroad, and found that all thcl2xl2 posts were rotten inside. They were so weak that he could push them over with his hand. Mr. Callahan says that Georgia long- leaf yellow pine is the best timber for bridges and trestles. Its durability is greater than that of oak, and its de cay begins from the outside. Mr. M. F. Amorous, one of the best known lumberman in Georgia says: “I was in Columbus, Ohio, a few years ago when they were removiug a bridge of the “old national road,” over the river. This bridge, I w-is informed, had been up over forty years, and the sills came from Geor gia, and were cut from genuine long leaf pine. These sills were sound, with no sign of rot on them. “All lumber will rot in time ; some kinds quicker than others. Yellow piue has a standard of commercial durability that is not surpassed in its peculiar uses, by any other wood. And for strength and elasticity it it stands at the head.” It is not strange that Northern and Western capitalists arc buying up Georgia pine forests wherever they can find them.—Telegraph. New evidences are constantly lieing brought to light, showing the increas ing value of Georgia pine lands. Taeyarea gold mine; or rather, will be one. London, Aug, 18.—Shocks of earthquake were felt to-day through out Herzevoginia. A portion of the Monster railway was damaged, hut nothing serious is reported, Washington, Aug. 17. — livery body who talked with the President about an extra session during the twenty-four hours he was'here, re reived the impression that lie meant to call an extra session as early possible, perhaps for the middle of October. Nasiinm.i.k, Ti:nn., Aug. 17.—Ex- Governor John C. Brown, late receiv or of the Texas and Pacific railroad, and at the time of his death president of the Tennessee Coal and Iron Company, died to day at Red Boiling Springs, this stale, from the immediate effects of hemorrhage of the stomach. Bainjiriwik, Ga., Aug. 17.—Three hales of new cotton reached hero yes terday cn route, to Savannah from Dotham, Ala., via the Alabama Mid land. Chief Contractors J. M. Brown it Co., say they will have the road ready in time to move flic entire crop along the road’s route this way when ready for market. Washington, Aug. 18.—President Harrison is quoted as saying yesterday before lie left that no whitewashing report would he accepted from the the Tanner commission. It looks more and more as though Commis sioner Tanner would have to go unless he is so broadly and deeply indorsed by the G. A. R. at the national en- camjiment as to make it impossible. Birmingham, Aj.a., Aug. 17,— Dirt was broken to-day with imposing demonstration at Huntsville for the line, of the Cincinnati, Alabama and Atlantic railroad, which is to run from Cincinnati due south to Huntsville, Ala.,-and then deflect either to Bir mingham or Savannah. Bonds are said to have been negotiated with which to push the line through. Nr.w Orleans, Aug. 1.N.—The hoard of directors of the cotton ex change have sent to all the exchanges ami hoards nf trade an invita'ion to a convention of the cotton interest, to take place in this city on Sept. 11, to agree on an uniform method for adjust ment of the difference in the tare be tween cotton and jute bagging. The proposition is that from a certain dale all cptton shall he sold by net weight, allowing 5 pen cent of the gross weight for jute and -!?, per cent, for cotton bagging. 1)ekr Paiik, Mu., Aug. 18.—The President spent the Sunday quietly. In the morning ho went to the little chapel of the hotel with cx-Scnator Davs and listened to a sermon taken from the parable of the tig tree. The minister spoke of the worthlessness of thelives ol those whose aims are selfish, and how they become unhappy, tor- gotten and friendless, while those who live for humanity never lose interest in life. Private Secretary Halford's daughter sang tlie solo “Better Lar.d” during the service. Washington, Aug. 17.—The week ly weather crop bulletin, issued by the signal service, shows that the past week has been cooler and marked by more rain than usual throughout the northern states, Kentucky, Virginia, North Carolina and Tennessee. It has been slightly warmer than the average temperature in the Gulf states. In the cotton region extending from Georgia to Texas, the weather was favorable and the cotton crop improv ed, although cotton worms arc on the increase from Alabama westward to Arkansas, and have caused some damage to the crop. Mississippi re ports caterpillars in thirteen counties. In the eastern portion ol the cotton region the cotton crop has been some what damaged by rain, hut farmers arc yet hopeful. The German Emperor has made his grandmother, Queen Victori, Colonel of a regiment. The old lady, now 70 years old, will make a gay old Col. Jute and Ramie. Years ago, the late Colonel Richard l’eteH established the fact that both ramie and jute would grow luxuriant ly in the South and with little or no cultivation. • This is a filet that ought to he borne in mind by lilt farmers ill the South while they are engaged in lighting the jute bagging trust. Cotton bagging may whip the fight in the end, ami it is to he hoped it will, hut there is no reason why a now and valuable in dustry may not he introduced in the south. The cotton-bagging enter prise may prove profitable, hut it is not essentially a new industry. The cultivation ami manufacture of jute and ramie, however, would give the south two new and profitable industries. The amount of jute fibre consumed in the United Sates is enor mous. A writer in the Manufac turer's R( cord says that more than 0,000,000 jute sacks are annually con sumed in handling cotton seed, meal and cake. All heavy gunnies are of foreign make. The annual increase in'tlic consumption of jute fibre the I'nited States is greater than ady other nation. The United States is a large consumer of jute fibre for handling the cotton crop and its products than all the rest of the world. The United States is a larger consumer of jute fibre for handling the grain crop and its products than all the world besides. The United States is a larger - consumer of fibre other than cotton for harvesting its grain crops than all other countries of the globe. The United States the largest consumer of jute fibre miscellaneous fabrics, employing it in a greater variety of uses than all other nations put together. According to tables carefully pre pared by A. I!. Turner, Jr., of Bos ton, president of the Flax and Hem]) Spinners and Growers association, flax, hemp, jute and manufactures of them rank fourth in invoice value of imports, while rating twenty eight in the list of protected articles. Among the fibres and textiles, wool and the manufactures therefrom were import ed in 1SS7 to an invoice value of ()0,f>S(?,(>l I, and subjected to an average rate ol duty of y8.8L per cent. Flax, hemp, jute and their manufactures came second, with an invoice value of 88-1,807,28-'!, and an average rate of duty of only 28.10 per cent. Silk and manufactures follow ed with an invoice value of 1,2114,- 277, and an average rale of duty of 10.71 per cent. Cotton ami maim file lures came fourth, its invoice value being 820, laOJIJ!), and average rate of duty 10.17 per cent. Isn’t it worth while for the planters of the south to look into this matter? —Constitution.
