Just keep cool; this weather can not lust always. Because a man has a horse laugh, it hy no means follows that he has horse sense. Cotton can not he profitably grown in this county. Why not raise tobacco, which is a much surer crop, brings ready money, and will yield the producer a handsome profit. Dr. Cniullor’s explanations are seemingly very labored ones; and mime of Mrs. Felton’s charges seem to have tin attack of hyster ics for their sole foundation. The press is tired of their twad dle and wo propose a good “spanking and out to bed’’ for both of thorn. The teachers of our public schools w'ero paid one half their salaries for their services of Inst yoar—the work they commenced over a year ago,—on yesterday. The other half they hope to get next week, but it is by no means certain. No one man is to Name for this state of off airs, for it is the fault of our, otherwise fairly good, system of free schools. White county has thousands of comparatively worthless acres, as they now are, that can he bought for a song, that would produce the very finest qualities, and most valuable grades of tobacco. A\ hy not use these lands our selves, idustead of waiting I'm the enterprising man who will come here some day. and take in the whole thing at a scoop? All we need is a factory. A Timely Need We need a tobacco factory right hero in Cleveland. More than one of our citizens are fully alive to the advantage and bene fit such tin institution would be to Cleveland and White county, and wo heard one of these same citizens say ho would gladly put one thousand dollars in such an enterprfso. Wo do not doubt, that if the subject was properly agitated, every business man, and prosper ous farmer in t ho county, would tuke stock in the concern. The soil of a great portion of White county is pronounced 1 y those who profess to know, as unsurpassed for the production of tobacco, especially the finer and most valuable grades of the leaf. By the co-operation of a few progressive citizens and the in vestment of a few dollars oueli, a market could bo created here, these lands, now almost worth less, would yield handsome re turns, Cleveland would build up, and every branch of business be come more prosperous. The Weather. This is the most severo contin ued cold spell, wo have experi enced in twelve years. The light fall of snow of hist week, was forgotten m the heavy fall of Saturday night. Sunday morn ing it measured seven iuchos, while the mercury stood all that day at about twenty degrees. Monday morning the nereun crawled down almost out of sight —one man said fourteen below zero, others say, to live, and yet others, only to zero. Bo it as ii was, we were not sutlieieptly in terested to get out early enough to see for ourselves. While the intense cold is the cause of much suffering, and makes a load of wood wanted 1>\ others than country editors, it will prove a veritable blessing when crops are gathered next i. O va N Hi A 1* Jj Last night we dre mod. Sum mer's gentlest, breezes, delicious and spice laden, fanned ns as wc swung in a luxurious hammock, hack und forth, hack and forth, to the tinkling of a crystal foun tain 1 our side. The cooling spray just t niched us gently,— evening’s shadows tv ere growing longer, -the fountain played and the spray grew cooler, and even cold;—we moved—to find the blizzard had blown out a pane of glass, and that four inches of snow had drifted in close proxim ity to our spine. J’anc for pain. * » # Ilomer Heed’s litters 'n the Journal from l’ahitka, was the cause of that dream, Imt the rude awakening came direct from the North pole. 0 * 0 If you have a mind to discover something, and want to make your name immortal, and a. Co lumbian reputation, it is a good time to train yourself to join the I’eury (xpedil ion that will soon leave in search of the iiorlliend of I lie earth. Speaking of the North polo, we can’t for the life of us see where the difficulty lies in discov ering it’s whereabouts now. U’c are rontiilent it is on a voyage of discovery itself, and, judging by the weather, we feel sure il is heading straight for Cleveland. Such weather as this, is gener ally destructive to anything in the way of blossoms,. 1 el, wc know of some,—a certain species-that are so hardy.tlnil they blow offer er during n cold spell, than any other tune. White will challenge any coun ty of its population in the slate, for successful methods In the male contracting business. We know of four pairs of hoy twins as the result of the last thirty days. * * * White county is a wonderful county anyway, if it is only a pale red spot on the map. It has the finest timber in the state. It has the tincst water-power in the state. It has enough granite, ol lh(> finest quality, to lniild a mod ern Babylon, mid to furnish mill stones enough to grind all the wheal and corn that will he rat ed during the next century. It has the richest gold mines, east of the L’ncitie slope. It has the greatest undeveloped mineral wealth of any county in (icorgia. It has more rosy cheeked, pret ty girls, than any county from Rahim Cap to the sea-hoard. It has living within its borders, more old people in proportion to its population, than any place of its size in the l . S. Only babies and consumptives fr<>m abroad die here. All of which we pro pose to prove by figures before many weeks. The petition gotten up hy Mr Jno. Martin, of (iainesville, ask ing the removal of Dr. Spencer, the present State Geolng’st, and the appointment of another man, is signed by every miner and prominent business man in this section of country.

One day last week as Mr. Ran som Palmer was walking through the woods, ho espied a lino squir rel just as it went into its hole, about thirty' feel from thvgrouud, in a hollow hickory tree 1 . Heine a good climber himself, and pos sessing a decided relish for a juicy well cooked squirrel, Mr. IV.!- nier iirnied himself with a stick, pulled off his shoes and coat, am nimbly followed up the. lice. Arrived at. the hollow, he insert ed his stick, jabbed viciously a few times, listened and hearing no noise, concluded that, ho had killed the squirrel. Failing 1. twist him out with the stick, and thinking he could reach him with his hand, he put his arm into t he hole. The squirrel was not dead; but he happily caught il by t lie back of t lie neck, and went lo pull out his arm - when lo! he found it impossible to ex tricate it further than just above the elbow. The north wind was whistling through the naked houghs, and lo a man up a tree thirty feel, in liis shirt sleeves, and bare feel, il was chilling to the hone. AIraid to let go of tlie now fully alive squirrel, for fear of its sharp teeth, and unable to extri cate his arm, without so doing, shivering at each blast from the north, Mr. Palmer no doub regretdd his rash venture. So In clung l.o his support, growini! weaker and colder for over two hours, when with almost super human effort and heroic courage, he brought one mighty surge, straining every nerve in his body , and peeling skin and flesh from his lower arm, liberated himself. He held Mr. Squirrel firmly and surely, Though, and had the sat- isfm tion of cracking his hones for dinner next day. The wholesale slaughter of rail- bits which ooeured Sunday' (save the mark) and Moml y, will cause a scarcity of that game f< r a year or two. \Vo estimate total number killed during snow, in White county, tiv un.lred. the the at Air. iloei'cj.

By this plan we have an opportunity of treating tho worn aeres. Ihicli farmer should study tlie best methods for doing Urn ; eider ids eurroundiuga, and adopt that which tiest suits the condition of his land and Ins individual liu ris. Let us resolve that we will not be led away from LEGITIMATE MET HOPS hecanso our chief money crop is now bringing a tier price with a prospect of permanent advance. Let ns not allow this fiu-t to blind or mislead us. We are pa eng Through a period of great fliuim iiU i!v;-rt slon mid eiiii.iirrasuiiiait. Let us realize that this has, in a large measure, been induced l,y our own m : takes, anil not allow ili.- '.'.lutering pros- peet of high price.! next tail to allure us into forgetting tho hard lessons of a quarter of u century. Bear i:i mind Unit while we are, to a great extent, in dependent of all other nations in the product ion of cotton-that is, that no oilier nation cun produce it profitably at 10 cents, yet wie-n we produce a i-ott.-n crop at any profit, if this is done by di minishing the alt important food crops, WE S.u 'i'll'icu TllK INKA'I ND N"F Which this monopoly would givens, and any reduction in the price falls wiili distressing effort upon us. We make tlie world's cotton’, \Ve have no competition worthy of seri eis consider- ntion. Tho world's cotton market is our own. We must utilize THIS TREMENDOUS ‘M'PORTl NiTY to the very best advantage. We -an overstock the market and ruin ourselves, giving (lie profits to tlie foreigner, who buys from us, or by a WISE DIVERSIFICATION at homo we can place ourselves in po sition to tako advantage of favorable markets. In this we at-o more tortu- eate than our western grain-producing la-other, who can only furnish the world with bread after the supply ia other eountrie. lias been exhausted. The south ettu produce cotton cheaper titan other countries, and to that extent she has an opportunity to make a profit on the crop. As yet no rival which is strong enough to wrest this advantage front us lias entered tho field. Bat our industry is in a MOST •'UITIOAL CONDITION, because wo put tuto our cotton er;p nearly all oar brawn and muscle, as well as the larger part of our hopes and plans. THE SITI' ATION CAN BE IMPROVED by directing a larger portion of our en orgies than is at present given, to the pro luction of _ NKi mct) FARM SUPPI II S. If this is done generally and ouf lands treated in a way tRrdemonstrate that we appreciate the untold blessings w'^eli surround us, and also that we hrtvirvretef solved to cast aidde our past uneatisfaqjj fe* torv methods, we can take hope, an I 1 will be in position to* reap advantage from any favorable changes in tlie mar ket. Our lands would thus be left in better condition for subsequent crops, our home support would be assured, and our cotton crop would lie almost clear profit. In n short tiling we would begin to realize the benefits of the change, anil eventually our section would bo enriched to an extent scarcely dreamed of now. Nearly EVERY FARMER WHO HEADS THESE LINES, or who lias read previous ''monthly talks" and followed me in the policy which I have marked out. must agree that I am correct, and yet concert of ac tion among farmers i tems u physical and moral impossibility, EACH FARMER, ACTING FOR HIMSELF, must decide this question for bis own best interest. Let each individual re solve to abandon a system which time and experience lias proven leads only to financial embarrassment, destruction ol our lands, and a paralysis of our him- gies; consider his financial ability am just how ntucli land lie can afford to put in cotton, without incurring HEAVY LIABILITIES, wtiieh, under the most favorable cir cumstances.he will be barely able to meet. Then let him determine what part of his land is in inch condition ac, with suitable fertilizers, intelligent methods and average seasons, will yield u fair profit. Let him adapt his crops as far us possible to the conditions of his soil, bio distance) from market, and tlie needs of his farm. Don’t be misled into planting any crop, whether it is cotton, tobacco or broom corn, to tho exclusion of those necessary to FILL THE BARN, THE CRIB, THE SMJKK HOUSE.
