The Race Question Again,

As one of your subscribers, I 'feel
as-ured that you will give me spire
in ycu- columns to ask why your nu
merous correspondents on the subject
of the race question continue their
aimless gabble unless some of them
can advance a new and ongioal ideal
Not one of them have done so yet. It
is plagairism from the first letter to the
last. . That admirable little- word call

as a source wheuce came many of the
ideas advanced. Alas! What volumes
of truth lie iu the remark of the Chi-
narn in who said: “Melikee man e too
talkce.’* This waste of breath and
primer’s ink is not only ' useless but
banefull.
It tend* to further unsettle the mind
of the ignorant and augments the an
tagonism which these writers confess
now exists, and widens the gap which
they say yawos between and threatens
engulf the two races* If they will
stop this prattle and let the question
alone it will settle itself. Meanwhile
the negro will take care of himself and
the white man will do the same. The
more enlightened of the colored race
arc astute enough to avoid race diffi
culties. They kuow tha- the superior
intelligence and financial possessions
the whites gives them incalculable
advantage and the work of extermina
tion would be brief. Besides . this,
the colored man has about divested
himself of confidence in the promises
northern pretenders and has come
realize that his best friends are
those among whom he lives and was

To return them to Africa would be
but to return them to that original

would reir >grude in a very few years.
Let them realize that, like men of any
country who are ignorant and poor,
they must study and work. Money

LE CONTE PEARS.
When and How to Pick, Pack
and Ship Them.
A well known Northern commis
sion house has issued a circular letter
to the growers of Le Conte pears,
giving instructions • about' gathering,
packing and shipping the (rnit, which
no doubt will be of value to them.
Below we give some extracts from
tlris'letter:
. *If Le Conte pears are left on the
trees until they commence to mellow,
they will then jwldom carry far in
good condition, every pear that is the
least mellow when, packed Tor ship
ment will generally arriye rotten at
the distant market; and everyone
that is near enough ripe to “give”
under pressure of the .thumb, will
arrive too soft to command within
probably SO percent of what would
have been its value if it arrived firm
and solid, as it would if picked earlier
and properly packed and shipped.
Therefore, it is of the utmost impor
tance to pick the Le Conte pear be
fore tho ripeniug process has set in;
it should be fully grown, but not yet
the least mellow—the fruit grows to
its nature size first, then comes a
slight change in its green color pre
paratory to the ripening process, and
then is the time to gather and ship it,
before the ripeuing process sets in to
weaken its condition for the trying
ordeal of summer transit. If tbe
pear is gathered while quite bard, it
will then only partially ripen up in
transit, so as to arrive firm and
sound, and nearly enough ripe for the
trade to handle; it will ripen up af
terwards upon tbe retailer’s hands as
wanted, so as to be rightly eatable a
week or more after it is shipped, and
then it meets the best demand and
full price—as it is so often very far
from doing when it arrive* soft and
pithy.
“It is imperative to the Le Conte
pear’s value in the rorthern market
to hand pick it while hard; to not
bruise it; to pack it closely and
tightly in well ventilated barrels or
kegs; and to ship it in well ventilated
cars by all-rail fast freight
“If packed tightly in the barrels or
kegs they will not scarify by rattling
about in transit—the pressure is far
less injurious than the loose'shaking
about
“The barrels or kegs need to be
frequently slit all arouud and both
beads bored toll of large auger holes,
for complete vent.
“It pays also to grudo the pears
into two or three sizes. Small pears
among large ones, iu tho same pack
age will detract materially from the
salability and the price. The smaller
sizes would sell far better by them-
; selves, because uniformity in size is a
great desideratum, for the very good
reason that oue buyer wants lar«
sizes, aud anothor wants to buy the
smaller sizes—which is true with all
fruits, «fcc.”
Had a Safe Voyage.
A cablegram from Mr. James Watt,
who left here on the 14th for Edin
burgh, ticotlaud, received yesterday,
stated that he arrived safely and that
the condition of his brother, on 10-
couyt of whose illness he was sum
moned, was unchanged. Mr. Watt's
friends will be glad to learn that he
made the long trip safely, and hope
that his brothers illness may . not
prove so serious. as was at first
thought.
There—and Here.
Here is some weather news taken
from the Chronicle published at Far-
m’ -igtoc Maine. In its issue of the
30th. the Chronicle says :,
“We hear of heavy frosts on
Keuebcc river, but none here yet.
very nice growing time we are
having now, and grass is looking well
the field?, excepting where the ice
laid on it all winter. Cora and pota
toes have come up well and most of
tnc corn is already hoed.”
“Mr. Lbridge Parker bad sweet
corn spiodled Thursday, luae i6:h,
and po'e beans two feet high on the
poles the same day. F. E. Ham, our
popular postmaster, reported that
frost Friday night, June 17 th,
wi ttered some of his vegetables on
the lowland. It looks as though every
txdy was going to be satisfied with the
weather, for we have one day which
rivals that of the tropics and the next
will come very close to that of the
Arctic regions.”
Come South, thaw out and grow up
with the country. If some jof our
friends in Maine could just step over
pnd make Thomasville a pop call
some afternoon during this June month
ot roses, they would quit the bleak
hills of Near England and locate in
this favored sunlit land.
The New Baptist Church.
The work of excavation prepa
ratory to building the new Baptist
church is progressing very rapidly,
and soon the c.y of “more mm’’ will
resound through the heavy foliage of
the stately trees which surround the
site. The reporter visited the place
yesterday morning and wa3 shown the
plans of the building, which were
made by Mr. Wm.-Miller, the wqll
known architect and builder. The
building will be set back thirty feet
frpm the eiddwalk on bothJB road and
Washington streets in order that the
large and beautiful oaks can be aV
lowed to remain as ihey are. 'The
building will contain, besides the main
audience room, which will be 60x60
feet, a lecture room 37x50, t bo pas
tor’s study and a large class, room.
It is bo arranged that when tho chqpffft
is feqwded the eliding partition which
separates the church proper feuu the
lecture room can be pushed ntitle,
thus throwing the two apartments
into one room and greatly increasing
tho seating capacity. The church
will face both streets. Tho entrances
the audience room will bo on Broad
street, but the Jecturo room entrance
will bo on Washington street. The
tower will bs on the corner,, through
which will be th6 main entrance..
The pulpit will be located in the op
posite corner, just diagonally across
the rount from and facing tho en
trance. The seats will be raised and
placed in the room after the style of
those in tho Presbyterian churah.
The whole interior will be finished
a handsome, ta3tefui manner, and
no wise inferior to the interior Con
veniences and furnishings of auv
other church iu town. The seating
capacity of the church will bo about
seven hundred. The outside appear
ance of the building will bs very im
posing. The style of architecture is
attractive and pleasing to tbe eye.
The walls will be built of the best red
pressed brick and trimmed with stone.
Mr. Horrocks, who has the con
tract, is a thoroughly^ competent
workman and will do a good j«,b. We
congratulate the church on tho pros
pects of soon having a new and hand
some house of worship.
Prosperous Cairo
We take the following extract from
letter to the News from Cairo:
Cairo is located in one of tho best
agricultural sections of South Geor
gia. The farmers liviug around
Cairo are among the most prosperous
in the state. They' owe but little and
all have well filled barns, fat stock,
and good crop-*. The .farint
learned there is no money in the “all
cotton” system of farming and they
have diversified their crops, aud iu- T ,

meats, j
The merchants here tell me that
they have not sold a box of meat to j
the farmers of this section.
Tho farmers have hundreds of
bushels of corn now on hand for sale,
aud many o* them have bacon tu eel*.
I know of uo section where the farms
ers aro more prosperous. Nor of any
ace where a more friendly aud social
feeling exists between lUecouufry and
town.
The feeling that existed between
those of different political views dur
ing the recent campaign has disap
peared, and the erring ones seems to
have repented. Tho people of this
section are once more united, prosper
ous aud happy. Cairo u a busy place
now.
We have received a phamphlefc
published by the American Medical
Asrociatiou, at Chicago, containing
the paper by Dr. J. G. Hopkins, of
this city, which was read before and
unanimously endorsed by the Medical
Association of Georgia, which met in
Americus on the 20th of last April.
The paper, entitled “Contagion*
nets of Consumption,” has attracted
the attention of the medical fraternity
throughout the whole country,
was published in many of the leading
medical and scientific publications of
the United States, among which are
the Journal of the American Medical
Association, and the Scientific Ameri
can. It is a most valuable p^per and
Dr. Hopkins has been very , highly
complimented upon tbe able and

the subject. ,

Melon Vines Dying.
The Albany Herald iu noting- the
fact that many of the melon vines are
dying, says:
Tbe present season, barring the
lingering cool wealher that we had in
April, has been very favprable, so far,
for melon growers of Southwest Geor
gia, but do-pite the,satisfactory con
ditions of the season, a great many of
the melons vines have .died.*
The melon growers oi I>e - county
have been«. peculiarly no fortunate in
having their vices d : e, and, in compar
ing notes ;wib others, and looking
around: lor the cause,* they have arrived
at tbe conclusion'that it is due to the
commercial, fertilizers .-used. They
think ffiia the fertilizers contained loo
Apch acid. * Jkey .recaU the tact that
cotton seed-meal, the basis oi nearly
all the ’commercial, ter liters used in
this section, advanced in. price and
very considerably last winter, and tbe
supposition is that the manufacturers
economized iu the use of that- impor
tant iogredient and put in. an extra
quantity of acid to make up for it.
One planter who lost a large per
centage of bw acreage in melons says
that hedias no doubt of the -fact that
the misfortune is-due to the preponder
ance of acid* fa . the fertilizer used.
The'vinev commenced to wilt as soon
as ; the hot weather set in, and finally
ylthdr^d and died. He also states that
that he and others who had suffered
similarly and" from the same cause
would be very careful in the selection
of t’.iOtr fertilizers for next year.
ibqvc will be of interest to
•Tho alas cenutygrower-!. The melon
business is ^ large and growing indus
try iu this section and anything touch
ing its progress will interest many.
\mot.'g other questions which should
be closely investigated is the alleged
fact that two crops of melons cannot
be grown on the same ground.. Look
m'oThese things, gentlemen.
Freight Prepaid to New York.
We learned yesterday that tbe
Pennsylvania Railroad and the Oceau
Steamship Company issued orders
compelling ati shippers to prepay
freight on melons shipped to New
York. This order came unexpected
as it was not thought that the New
York market had become glutted so
soon. This will have the effect of
retarding tho shipping of melons to
iliat* point.

Now they argue that they cannot

was no guano, farmers in this section
were out of debt and independent.
With guano they are mortgaged and
