Thursday morning a Timix-Kxti:!:- Plttsi: reporter, in company with Mr. James L. Hall, left Thomnsvillc for Bold Sping, where the sub-Alliauces of the county were to hold an import ant business meeting. It is not amiss to say that another feature of the meeting exerted a very strong influence on the aforesaid re porter and his eontpnion. A dinner was to he served, and remembering what the goxl matrons and gentle maidens of the 17th and 18th districts had done and could do in the matter of satisfying the need for a good dinner,had no small influence inform ing the decision to be on hand early and to remain late. The early morning ride was a plea sant one; the sun was hid behind hanks of clouds, and a gentle wind canto up Irom the south that was cool ing and soothing. The pleasant and prosperous look ing farm houses by the road side, and the broad fields that were so soon to be clothed in harvest array,wete plea sant to look upon, and the gently slo j ,|, ting pine forests that were dovetailed! letwecn the fields, finished a picture that it were hard to improve. The reporter found a large crowd present when he and his companion arrived A glance at the vehicles and teams was enough to show tl the crowd assembled was one th 'cpreseuted the very best element the sturdy farmers of the county. One of the objects ot the merlin was to formulate plans looking to th erection of a cotton seed oil mill ntid guano factory, at some p tint in the county. For this purpose a joint stock company with a capi tnl of fifty thousand dollars and all seemed anxious to help the order forward, and In doing this to subserve all other interests to the grand one, of achieving a marked success in the undertaking in imme diate view. The building and ope ration of such a combined plant, the guano factory and oil mill will aid the farmers of the comity in many ways. It will afford a home market for their seed, and enable them to participate in the profits of the manufacture, and at the same time enable the farmers to buy their fertilizers at a very low price. It is almost needless to say that a monster cotton warehouse will come as one cf the natural sequences to the building of j the factory, and whenever this ware house is erected the cotton receipts will be swelled at least three fold. The committee appointed to formu late plans will bear in mind, when making their recommendation all the collateral advantages of location and transportation facilities, and while these will have their full weight, the town offering the most substantial in ducements will receive the rich plum. The Times-Enterpuise hails this movement with a great deal of pleas ure. It recognizes the good that will come to the al lance men of the coun ty, and it also recognizes the fact that cooperative enterprises like the one the alliane has in view has the strong est possible hacking and the backing is sure to firing success.

It was in the afternoon when the meeting adjourned, and it wps easy to see that the men who hud shaped the actioii of the day were heart and hand in the matter, and that the erection of a guano factory aud oil mill by the Alliancemen of the county, is a ccrtainity.
