Recently a considerable q autity of it wo* exported and there is a good prospect of building up a good foreign trade in this article. The production of sugar is also increasing rapidly in Georgia. It has been demonstrated not only that sugar can he made profitably in a large part of Georgia, but that Georgia sugar is of the highest qual ity. The Macon Telegraph, which lakes a lively interest in the material de velopment of the state and has done much to encourage it, has a high es timate of the possibilities of sugar m iking hi this state. It says: “Tlie coming sugar territory lies to the south of Macon ftom about this latitude and to the gulf and to the south Atlantic coast. It will be found when the experiments are made—and made they will be in the near future—that the southern part of this state and Middle Florida is to become a great sugar producing section. It is already known that the lowlands in this area named will produce 4 per cent, of sucrose more limn the Louisiana product. It is also known that fresh pine lands without manure will yield from 15 to 20 tons of cane per acre. “These facts are enought to guar antee tie success of sugar mills in South Georgia pitched on a large scale. They will pay handsome div idends on the money invested, and they will develop a sure and paying money for the farmers, for there is no surer crop that grows than the cane crop. Millions of tons of sugar can be produced m South Georgia between the Savannah and Chatta hoochee rivers.” We expect to see at the Georgia State Fair, which is to be held at S;iyaunnh next tall, a superb display of Georgia sugar as well as Georgia cuno syrup. Such a display can be made also, and certainly should be made at the great Buffalo exposition, where Georgia is to be represented. —Atlanta Journal. v Whenever you find a man finding fault with a local paper, open it up, t and ten to one lie hasn't an adver tisement in it; five to one he never .gave it a Job of work; tlireo to one , be does not take the paper; two to one, if he is a Hihscrihui lie i* delin quent; even odd* he never doc* any thing that will help the publisher to ..run a good paper, and forty to one, if l|i« paper is a good one and f.,11 ,of,(lfe, he i* the./nost eager to see the paper when it comes, out.—Ex. {Joniiterfeit* of DcWitt’s Witch HaxeJ Balvc are.liable to cause blood poisoning.

Luke Pryor, w ho fiddled himself Into the United State* Senate, died a little while ago at his home in Athens, Ala. He was a lawyer, and, tiesides being a senator, bad been a representative in congress from the Eighth Alabama district, l’ryor used to like to tell bow, through bis knowledge of the fiddle, he became started on hi* career of prosperity and politic*. Sixty-five years ago, ’way down m tlie greenbriar bottoms ot Limestone county, there nestled a primitive vil lage named Mooresville, m liquor of the pioneer who first settled on the slope above the Tennessee backwa ter. This section was uoted iu those days for rich soil, breakbone fever, greenbriars and coon*. In the vil lage dwelt, in a two-story home, Capt. Gamble, the richest man in ti.e village, the head of the Mooresville aristocracy. There also dwell in the same vil- 1 ge a poor widow who was left to rear a family ot children; good stock, but run down to poverty through misfortune. Among the children was a red-beaded, freckle-faced, fourteen- year-old boy named Luke. He was a hustler, industrious, and ambitions, and when night came and he had stabled his steers, he sawed on an old family fiddle until he attained eonsiderable skill, and was the pride of his sisters. But his mother did not admire Luke’s talent or taste. The family liyed in the regulation log cabin with stick chimney. Their pride of family position lost made them keenly sensible to their pov erty, One November afternoon, as thu good widow Pryor was sitting by her fireside, the only carriage in the village, owned by the society leader, the rich Mrs. Gamble, drove Up to the bars in front ol tiie house. Widow Pryor was called o t, with her hands wrapped in her white cot ton apron. Mrs, Gamble said: “Mrs. Prvqr, I have .coqie to invite your son Luke, to my dance on Thursday night, so fix Inm up and let him ooiue.” The delighted mother, sen sitive to the compliment paid to her red-headed boy, assured the rich lady that Luke would be sure to be there. , When Luke came in he was told of the good fortune; that he was to go to the big house. His bright eyes glistened; Luke was happy, and so was his honest mother. The next day site spent her savings to buy Luki’ a pair of trousers, and all the house - was aglow in fixing Luke for the feast. In the afternoon Luke went up to the store, where he met Capt, Gamble, tlie proprietor of the house. Tlie captain said: “Luke, Mrs. Gamble invited you to tlie party, I belieye ?” “Yes,” replied Luke; I “thank her; I will be sure to ooiue.” “Yes,” replied Capt. Gamble, “I don’t doubt you will come, but lie sure to bring your fiddle; can’t dance without a .fiddle.” The heart of .poor little Luke dropped within him. He ('caught on” and replied: “Cap tain, it was. my fiddle you wanted, not me, I suppose.” Tlie night of the dance L ke played the fiddle, and when the dapee was over Mis. Gamble not only fed him sumptu ously, hut sent a great basketful by him for his family. In years after .Pryor often said: “She wanted my fiddle, not me; hist tlie use of my fiddle by my friends has fed me and my family, and we haye grown rich upon it.”— Chicago Inter-Ocean.
