CROP REPORT.
Commissioner Henderson has issued
his report for September. It is a valu-
ble and interesting document. In it he
•ays:
“The conditions during the month
were rather unfavorable than otherwise
for the crops not already matured. The
variable -weather conditions thst prevail
ed during the greater part of July, and
which were brought to a close by gener
al nine during the last weok of the
month, were again resumed early in Au
gust, and prevailed as before until the
laat week in the latter month. Ko wide
spread disaster of storm of flood has oc
curred, yet the seasons were not such as
to cause any material and general im
provement in tho prospects of either of
the leading crops. The effect of the
hetvy rains daring tbe first pert of this
month remain, to be seen.
COTTOR.
Tho general average condition and
prospect of this crop has fallen from 89
on the first of August to 85 on the first
of September, a loss of four points. 1 n
North Georgia the redaction was from
92 to 87; Middle Georgia, 87 to 86;
Southwest Georgia, 93 to 83; Kast Geor
gia, 80 to 79, and in Southeast Georgia
Horn 92 to 91. This shows thst the con
dition of the crop in Southwest Georgia
has declined more than the aggregate
reduction of the other four sections.
This was due to the more general pre
valence of rust, and at the same tiin'the
depredations of caterpillars. Drouth and
rust are pretty generally assigned as the
causo of injury throughout the State,
though too much rain is noted in a few
counties. On the whole, the crop in the
State at large was three points better
than at the same date last yea*, when it
was 82 on the first of September. [The
very heavy rains that have fallen
throughout tho State since the date
(September 1) to which these estimates
refer, will doubicss very seriously im
pair the qurlity of the cotton, and some
what reduce the final yield of tho crop.]
CORN.
The prospective yield of this crop is
two points lower than tho prospect one
month ago. The dry weather severoly

Editor Banner-Watchman:—Please
give place to this letter addressed tc Dr.
Carlton and oblige the signers:
Hon. H. H. Carlton, Dear Sir:—As a
portion of your constituency, we [adept
this means of giving public expression if
our thanks for the manly and patriotric
utterances contained in your recent let
ters to the Banner-Watchman. Mono
polies and trusts are now the chief curses
that oppress and humiliate the tillers of
the soil, and unless those in authority
seek to afford relief, there is no telling
when or where the oppression will ter
minate. It is, therefore, refreshing to
know, ns we have ever knowlh, - that in'
you the farmers have a bold, fearless and
able advocate, who will “cry aloud and
spare not” when their interests are as
sailed or endangered.
Please accept assurances of our lasting
gratitude and support.
With highest regard, your fellow-
citizens
A- Pathetic Tale from Austral»v
The other day a leaning Fyunesr c:sJ ! ?* -
tor received instructions from London to
hunt up a young man \v)k» had quitted
Jjondon ten yeare previously, and a draft
for £300 was inclosed to pay his passage
home. After a courae of advertising a
member of a charitable society called in
and directed the solicitor to a certain
hovel in lower Alexandria, f^yduey. Tho
solicitor, knowing tl»o “lay” of the
country, judiciously sent his clerk down
to catch the fever instead of doing it in
person.
That well dressed young man explored
the barbarous region, dodging through
back lanes and over mud pies and among
broken fences that hung wearily and
lopsidcdly amid abysses of mud, and at
last he arrived at a hut which boasted a
box mid a pile of rags and straw for its
solo furniture. A weary woman, who
had once been handsome, and who under
happier auspices would be handsome
again, bogged that they should not lie
turned out of their dismal abode until
her husband was better, and a hollow
eyed invalid stretched on a pile of rags
in tho corner echoed the retition. And
these two were the heirs to a fortune of
£30,000.—Sydney (Australia) Bulletin.

I he negro came and it was not long

it is impossible to esiitnste the loss. The
cotton that was thoroughly open, before
the rains began, is ruined', most of it
having been knocked out and beaten into

Six Men Hung.
Therb is a dispute among those
who guarded the prison at Anderson-
ville during the latter part of the
war whether there were six men
hung in the stockade by the Yankees'.
A book has been published showing
that six men were hung at one time
while others who were there claim
that only four were launched into
eternity at the same time. The men
that were hung were a terror to those
inside the stockade and would. not
hesitate to rob everyone supposed to
have money. Complaints were made
to Gen Winder, the commandant of
the prison, and he ordered a court
martial to consist of prisones in the
stockade. The court martial was
well coducted and the counsel f6r the
defense done his full duty. The
award of the court was that so many
should be hung and the others lie
placed in chains for thirty days.
There is a difference of opinion as to
whether there were six or four hung
at one time or not Some one who
was at Andersonville at the time
could settle the question.
Men who have more than ono occupa
tion frequently uso different forms of
their name for each one. Mr. Stedman,
for example, as the banker prefers to be
known ns E. C. Stedman, and in litera
ture as Edmund Clarence Stedman. In
business circles Mr. Francis Hopkinson
Smith is known ns F. H. Smith, or Fran
cis IL Smith, whilo iu art circles he has a
wide reputation as F. Hopkinson Smith,
and so business and art have tlieir nice
distinctions even when exemplified in the
samu person.

Engel, “supposing I accept, will you, oc

Referring to the emperor of Austria a
recent writer says: “Ho has no taste for

of men. His only passion is grouso

slqis away from Vienna to the Alpine

He is very charitaLle, and, having a
largo fortune of liis own. distributes bis

A tall, dark man, with raven black

A Sketch of Hie Life and Other Fact
Concerning Him.
The following sketch ot Gen. Stephen
D. Lee, is taken from the “Land we
Love,” and was written, we believe, by
Gen. D. H. Hill, in 1867.
Gen. Lee was born in Charleston, 8.
C, September 22J 1832. He was edu
cated at West Foint, entering that insti
tution in 1850, graduating in 1844, seven
teenth in a class of forty-six.
As a cadet he was especially distin
guished f or horsemanship. Upon gradu
ation he was assigned to duty in the
United States army as 2d Lieutenant of
the 4th Artillery. In 1856 he wis pro
moted to 1st Lieutenant in the sime reg
iment and shortly afterwards made quar
termaster, and filled other staff positions.
In 1876-8, he was A. A. General of the
department of Florida, under Gen. Loom
is, serving later in Texas, Kansas and
Nebraska.
In February 186L, when he found war
was inevitable between the North and
South, with lofty devotion to his native
State, he resigned his commission in th6
United States Army and went immedi
ately to Charleston. Here he was ap-
poined Captain in the Confederate army
and assigned to dnty on the staff of Gen.
Beauregard. He was one of the two
officers sent by Beauregard to demand
the surrender of Fort Sumter and
carried the order to fire upon it,
when Major Anderson refused the de
mand. Soon after this event he took
cuminand of a battery in Hampton’s
Legion. For months he was engaged on
the l’otomac, and was in the retreat
from Manassas to Yorktown, and thence
to Richmond.
In the winter of 1861 ho was made
which they will complete in a short time
and then the warehouse will be ready
for the reception of the fleecy staple.

manner in which nickels are dropped
into the patent weighing macliines, an
automatic fountain is made to send out a

The crowds of ]>eople who go down to

take up so much of this perfume thatthe
odor has become disseminated through

THE GEORGIA RAILROAD
And th« Floods—Immense Dtmaje Alon*
the Line.
The Georgia railroad has sustained
heavy losses by the floods. Tbe Macon
and Washington branches are badly torn
np and no trains are pausing. There
were several bad washouts on the main
line, bat no very serioue damage. It has
been put in passoble order and trains are
running through, making but one trip a
day.
On the Washington branch the em
bankment on which one end of the bridge
over Little river rests, was wtshod away
and only a hand car can pass over the
temporary repairs. An embinkment
over a culvert through which a small
creek passes, a few miles below Bar
nett, was wsshod away. It has stood for
thirty years.
Passengers from Washington are
brought on a handetr to Sharon, thence
to Barnett on a flat car. Through the'en-
terprise of Mr. B. 0. Barksdale, the de
pot agent at Washington, mails go regn*
larly, only one day’s mail having been
delayed. Hands are at work on the
branch, and trains will be passing by
to-morrow. The Mae§n branch seems
in worse fix stilt. The bridge over the
Ogeechee is unsafe and the trestle over
Folsom creek is gone. There is no eon-
ncction of any kind between Camak and
Macon, and the people of Sparta and
■long the branch are completely cut
off from the world. Mr. Beese, of Sparta,

Clow Observer Talks About th© Progress
of this Classic City—We ar© Healthful uml
Progressive—Let Us Doom,
Long years ago Cere was a beautiful
wooded spot that attracted a few settlers,
who were in search of a pretty, hetltliy
and fertile locality, far removed from
busy li.'e. Athens, with its high, natu
rally drained hills, caught the eye, and
tho nucleus of the present prosperous
and rapidly growing city was formed. A
germ was planted destined to bring forth
city that would,[in some future day,be
come the pride of the South, and the
delight of her people. The spot selected
possessed so many attractions that,
though these early settlers were trying
run away from the world, they found
that rapidly the settlement was spread
ing out, aud adjoining plantations were
being settled. Some seeking this spot
account of the beauty of its location,
but the vast wijority for its pronouuced
healthiness. It is obliged to be healthy,
can’t be anything else, its very topo
graphy makes it so, for it is governed
the physical laws of health. Gov.
John Miiledge recognizing this fact, do
nated to the State a Urge tract of land to
be used as the sito of tbe Stata Univer
sity, Health was the primary reason for
seating tho University here, and well
was tho spot selected. The Lucy Cobb
Institute, which has been iu operation
now since 1858, a period of thirty years,
has never had a single death among its
pupils. In fact, there has never been a
serious case of illness in the Institute
buil-ling in all these thirty rears. '1 liis
we can but acknowledge, speaks well for
the heaitb of our city.
It is said of Athens that if one of her
daughters marries a non resident he had
well locate at once here, for iiis wife
til let him sec no peace or happiness
util he returns, i’ersi ns never visit
Athens bm that they “ooiuo and coine
again that they may call it up when far
away.” ’Twas said of her for many
years, that if one left Athens and re
turned after a lapse of a few years they
found not a singlo stone had been turned
over, so slowly did she grow, this cannot
be said of her now. There is little doubt
but that Athens has grown more rapidly
within tho last ten years, than any one
city South. Persons coming here today,
after four or five years absence, are as
tounded at the many changes,
Athens,resource§ fur becoming a large
and wealthy city are almost unlimited,
She has in and about her, water power
sufficient to run mills and factories with-
out end. She is rapidly becoming one of
the largest cotton markets in the South.
She is the center of the educational in-
tere it of Georgia, therefore the center of
Southern culture and refinement. She
has some of Georgia’s most enterprising
business men. She has men with Urge
capital in her midst, men who under
stand tbe needs or a city,and her young
tuen are enterprising and progressive.
Wbat then is to prevent Athens from
becoming a large and populous city?
Nothing, this is sure to be, ts the sun is
to rise. There’s no false bottom to her
lsing prosperity, there’s no unnatural
boom, gradual but steady, subatatial
growth.
The fortune of Athens Is bright, false
and exagerated reports of sickness here
cannot and will not permanently injure
her. Railroads are whst she needs, rail
roads ire whst she is bound to. and
must have, railroads are whst are coming
here as fast as dirt can he dug and nila
laid,
7. Let Athena 'then open wide her gates
and invite men with capital into her
midst, let her Invite more skilled labor
ers here, there are not enough to con
duct her various industries. ’ In short
let every man, woman and child become
gaged in tbe battles of Seven Pines,
Savage Station and Malvern Hill.
His ability had attracted the attention
of Gen. R. E. Lee, who placed him in
command of a battalion of artillery with
the rank of Colonel. As such, in the
joed battle of Manassas he became
one of the heroes of that eventful day.
At this battle where he aprang at once
into national fame, and became a historic
character. He occupied the command-
in; ridge between the corps of Jackson
and Longstreet, and for his conduct on
that day Gen. Robert E. Lee thanked
him in person, and President Davis said
of him that “he turned the tide of battle
and consummated victory.”
Upon the retreat from Maryland Gen.
R. E. Lee was directed by Mr. Davis to
select .one of bis best officers to be sent
to Vicksburg. Stephen D. Lee was se
lected, promoted to Brigadier General
and sent to that point in November 1862.
Until the fall of Vicksburg he distin
guished himself by a brilliant career, and
was captured there with the enemy’s
trenches but twenty feet from his lines.
He was immediately exchanged and as
signed to the command of all the cavalry
under Gen. Joseph E Johnston, with
rank of Major General.
After tho battle of Tishomnigo Creek
he was made Lieutenant General, the
highest rank in the army but one, at the
age of 32.
Relieved of the department of the
West, he joined Hood at Jonesboro, and
participated in the bloody campaign to
Nashville. There he was wounded, and
two months later, with Joseph E. John
ston, confronted Sherman in North Car
olina, and was paroled with Johnston in
April 1865.
With a clear intellect, a robust and
well disciplined mind, s keen judgement,
firm and self-reliant, Ge i. Lee’s charac
ter must always excite admiration.
Modest and courteous, his bearing is al-
ways that of a refined gentleman.
In 1865 he was married to a daughter
of James T. Harrison, a distinguished
lawyer of Columbus, Miss., and now re
sides near that place, engaged in agricul
tural pursuits. His experienco, hi" pa
triotism, his personal worth, his abilities
will yet be brought into use when his
country needs his services.

AF©« Hints That Will be nf Great Boned
to Doth tn© Operator and Subscriber.
Wonderful progress has been made in
the manner of transmitting messages
from one part of the city to another, and
even from city to city in the past ten
years, and it is very difficult to imagine
what will be the advancement in the
next ton years. If twenty years ago you
had said to your neighbor that you
would be able to sit in your room and
talk with him fifty miles in another city
he would have unhesitatingly called yon
an idiot or a fit subject for the lunatic
ylurn. Y et one qf the largest enter
prises of the present day is the operation
of thetclephane system, and by the way,
ono of the most perplexing of tho whole
cotegory of professions. For instance.the
many calls, ladies not excepted, demands
and threats of being reported to the
general manager, when, in reality, it is
oftener than otherwise not the fault of
the office operator, but the person wish
ing to use the telephone, not being posted
as to how to make his calls. Yot they
hello away, and, if they can't both hear
and see the answer, a volume of threats
and a cloud of thunder is hurled at tha
operator, which works him up to such a
pitch that his nerves are all unstrung, so
all hands get out of sorts. By following
these instructions much time and annoy
ance can be avoided: Wher. you go to
the telephone you will simply say 28 on
572; the bell rings. Yon then say send
mo six bottles Dr. Woolley’s Invigorine,
which relieves weak.nerves, kidney com
plaints, dyspepsia, constipation, as well as
the many troubles incident to the change
of life, which is a great blessing to
woman. Delays are dangerous and every
ono should bo careful to look well into
the matter.
