And the fanners are happy. -Mer chants, farmers and all parties are satisfied with the situation. Mr. Chauiu-y M. Depew made a speech at the republican State con vention the other day in New York, laudatory of Mr. Harrison s adminis tration. The best thing he could say about it, was to refer to the success, of the new cruiser Baltimore, which was lauuced a few days ago, and which has developed a speed which makes her perhaps the fastest war ves sel afloat. Mr. Depew forgot to tell his audience that the Baltimore was designed, contracted for and built by Mr. Whitney, the democratic secre tary of the navy under Mr. Cleve land. The selection of a national flower is still agitated all over the country, but with little prospect of an early deter mination. They essayed at the i't. Louis exposition to settle it by ballot. The polls were open last Tuesday and Wednesday, when the crowds were unusually large. The most prominent candidates were the golden rod, the sunflower, the rose, the daisy, the vio let, the lily, the pansy, the tube rose and the morning glory. Each of these had not only warm supporters, but a campaign committee and challengers at the polls. Every effort was made to prevent repeating, bribery and oth er forms of corruption. On counting the votes golden rod was in the lead, having received 6347 votes. The sunflower came next with 4,743’ an d the others as follows- Rose, 3,241; j A NEW RULE FOR SELLING COT-; UTEST TELEGRAPHIC NEWS, The National Alliance Committee Talks. Atlanta, Ga., Sept.

To contend for the cause in spite of the fact that many leading exchanges had deserted it, is epeeially commendable and will he co operated in by the in terests we represent; and WlimtLAK, The justice and equity of the farmers' claim on the tare ques tion is based on the one fact which sta-uls boldly and undisputed and mi- disputable—that every cotton wrap ped hale actually contains eight pounds more of lint cotton than it would if covered with jute—tlieretore it is hereby A’csc/ecd, That the action by the Shreveport cotton exchange be adopt ed in the present emergency, and every farmer is hereby instructed, when ol- fering lor sale cotton wrapped in cot ton bagging, to demand payment for eight pounds more of cotton than the actual grosi-weight of such bale. AVVivd, That this action is inten ded to supersede and take the place of all previous action and instructions in regard to the tare question. In no case shall a bale of cotton be sold subject to a dock of sixteen pounds for cotton bagging or twenty-four pounds for jute bagging, as agreed upon in New Orleans, unless the cot ton be sold at one-half cent per pound in advance of the current price at the lime and place. Further instructions wi'l be given the order by the national cotton committee on Oct. 23, through the president of each Alliance wheel, or union, at their county seats, where president or secretaty of each primary Alliance wheel or union will meet them to receive the same.

A well equipped and avail able volunteer force is essential. No state should be without such a force. Georgia has sponged on her volunteer soldiery long enough. They have in many instances responded to the call of the civil authorities, and l»y their organized presence prevented blood shed and aided in the enforcement.of the law. It would he niggardly in the Slate not to do something for the men who have thus, for years, and at their own expense, held themselves in readiness to respond at any hour of the day or night, to the call of the State. ■ SIM-let A I.

JoNttsiioito, Ga., September -!*.— ' The News gives this interesting story: j In the year 1871 we had a county | fair for Clayton county, connected with which was a baby .-how with a prize of five dollars in gold fur the finest baby. There were exhibited on that occasion a pair of red headed twin boy babies about one year old. They were the finest babies 011 exhi bition, ami weie so much alike the judges got them mixed, and in order to get out of their difficulty had to di supply the funds for these schools, and that the children of those once held m servitude in the south are being edu cated by the sons of their former mas ters. On this same subject of cduc tion in die south, we reprint a communica tion from a Boston newspaper by a southern man : To the Editor of the Advertiser: Re- fering to a fugitive paragraph quoted in your columns to the effect that Geo. W. Cable says : ‘ The south is wast- j ing millions every year in refusing to educate its colored people,” I would say that this statement is untrue. I | have the honor to be one of the school j commissioners ot this city, and so far as refusing to educate the colored citi zens, I would say that lie enjoys the same educational priveligcs that '.he white man does. Our school buildings are alike, elegant brick structures.

Why a man who lias spent so much of his lime in the south, and knows better, should make such state ments is beyond comprehension, The total city taxes of Adieus for the past year amounted to over $41,5007 of this amount the whites paid $40,000 and the colored people $1,500.
