B. Bl'IlR, Biialneae Xlnnngcr. Base ball has struck Albany—and struck it hard. Atlanta had four shooting, cutting and fighting scrapes, oil Monday. At lanta is a lively plaoc. Georgia pays out too much money lor western horses and mules. She ought to raise her own stock. John Smith is in trouble again. This time he turns up out in Ohio, charged with stealing. He voted for Harrison. We regret to sec that the pretty town of Madison in this state, was badly damaged by fire on Monday morning. The question of deconesscs in the Methodist church is agitating the great general conference of that church in St. Louis. Between the crops and politics, Georgia farmers will he kept pretty busy this summer. Ouradvice: keep down the grass, and vote for the best men. The colored Land Improvement Go., in Georgia, composed of well i nown colored men, is the latest evi dence of the progress of that race at the South. The Brunswick Times pithily re marks : Statesman Livingston’s polit ical intentions may thus be described: He may and he may not—perhaps— if—wait till the clouds roll by. A factiou in the Southern Baptist Convention, now in session in Dallas, Texas, tried to substitute another publication for “Kind Words.’ They failed by a large majority. “Kind Words’’ will still make its weekly vis its to the Baptist Sunday Schools. During the past four months 1100 miles of railroad track have been laid in the United States. Of this, 745 railfcs have been put down in the South. New England aud the North west have shown but little increase of mileage. The case of Tom Woolfolk was reached in the supreme court yester day. On account of the absence and illness of Col. Rutherford, Woolfolk’s attorney, the case was postponed. It will be called up toward the end of the term, probably within two or three wesks. The following beautiful thoughts arc worthy of preservation : “And when it is all over, and our feet will run no more, aud our bands nre helpless, and we have scarcely strength to murmur a last prayer, then we shall see that, instead of need ing a larger field, we have left uu- tilled many corners of our single acre and that none of it is fit for our Mas ter’s eye were it not for the softening shadow of the cross."—Edward Gar rett. 0, Yes, We’re “Hanging On.” The Tiraes-Union, Jacksonville gets the following off on Reed's Pitts burg speech: It is said that fools and children tell the truth, and statesmen of Reed’s calibre arc apt to disregard Talley rand’s famous precept about tnc use of words. In the report of his Pitts burg rant is found this pearl of thought: “Hanging on to the old traditions is the business of the demo cratic party, and it docs that business well.” Yes, it hangs on to the old Jeflersoniau traditions with an iron grip, and when the g. o. p. is laid to rest in the grave which Quay, Reed & Co., arc digging for it the party of immutable principles will lie found in “that business" still. . And it is Sensible Talk, Too—What He Says About The Alliance. SiEunKNvn.i t:, Ohio, May n.- few weeks ago, J. A. Hill, correspond ing secretary ol Oak Grove lodge, No 22, Farmers' alliance, near this city, wrote to cx-Prcsident Cleveland, closing a ropy of the declaration of purposes of the alliance, and asking for Mr. Cleveland’s views thereon. the declaration of purposes. The foliowing is the declaration of purpose, and Mr. Cleveland’s reply: Profoundly impressed that we, the Farmer's alliance, united by slrong and faithful tics of financial and home interests, should set forth our declara lion of intentions, we therefore Resolve (c strive to secuie the es tablishment of r ght and justice to ourselves and our posterity ; lo labor for the education of the agricultural classes in the science of economical government in a strictly non partisan spirit; to endorse die motto, “In things essential, unity; in all thing: charity lo secure the purity of the elective franchise, and to induce all voters to intelligently exercise for the enactment and execution of laws which will express the most advanced public sentiment upon all questions involving the interests of laborers and farmers; to develop a 1 letter state, mentally, morally, socially and financially ; to constantly strive to secure entire har mony and good will among all man kind, and brotherly love among our selves ; suppress personal, local, sec tional and natural prejudices, all un healthful and all selfish ambition; to assuage the sufferings of brother and sister, bury the dead, care for the widows and educate the orphans; to exercise charity toward offenders; to construe die words and purposes in their most favorable light, granting honesty of purpose and good inten tions to others, and lo protect the principles of the alliance unto death. MR. CLEVELAND’S REPLY. Mr. Cleveland’s reply was: March 24, 1S90.—J. A. Hill, Corresponding Secretary—Dear Sir: I have received your letter, accompa nied by a copy of the declaration of principles ol the Farmers Alliance. I see nothing in this declaration that cannot be fully endorsed by any man who loves his country; who believes that the object of our government should be the freedom, prosperity ahd happiness of all our people; and who believes that justice and fairness to all are necessary conditions to its useful administration. It has always seemed to me that the farmers ol the country were espec ially interested in the equitable ad justment ot our tariff system. The indifference they have shown to that question, and the case with which they have been led away from a sober con sideration of their needs and their rights, as related to this subject, have excited my surprise. Struggle as they might, our farmers must continue to be the purchasers and consumers of the numberless things enhanced in cost by tariff reg ulations. Surely they have a right to say that this cost shall not be in creased for the purpose of collecting unnecessary revenue, or to give undue advantage to domestic manufacturers. The plea that our infant industries need protection, wnich thus impover ishes the farmer and consumer, is, in view of our natural advantages and skill, and the ingenuity of our people, a hollow pretext. Struggle as they may, our farmers cannot escape the conditions which fix the price ol what they produce and sell, according lo the rates which prevail in foreign market, flooded with the competition of countries enjoying a freer exchange of trade than we. The plausible presentation of the blessings of a borne market should not deceive our depressed and im poverished agriculturists. There is no home market for them which does not take its instructions from the seaboard, and the seaboard transmits the word ol foreign markets. Because my conviction that there should be a modification of our tariff laws arose principally from an appre ciation of the wants of the vast army of consumers, comprising our farmers, our artisans and our workingmen, and because their condition has led me to protest against the present imposition, I am especially glad to see these asso ciations of fellow-countrymen, arousing themselves to the importance of tariff reform. Yours, very truly. Gkovf.r Cleveland.

Washington, May 12 —Mr. Stew art of Georgia said to-day; “While I do not believe in bounties, I am going to see whether the republicans want the farmers to have them, and to that end I shall give them n chance to vote on nn amendment which I shall pro pose to the tariff bill giving a bounty of 1 cent a pound for the production ot cotton.
