A bill Is now pending before the legislature, to be enacted upon at the summer scs nion, whieh provides that purchasers ot guano, notwithstanding any waiver in the note, may plead failure of con¬ sideration, when it proves to be worth¬ ies*. And that this defense may be set up notwithstanding the transfer of the note to an innocent holder, before due. Tho guano men say that this will ruin the trade, and they can not sell except for rash under such a law. It is true tho bill has not passed, and probably will not be, but the manu¬ facturers arc apprehensive that it will pass attor the notes are given, and they will have trouble next fall. This doubt makes the fertilizer trade rath¬ er hazardous for the dealer, and it will be more difficult this spring to make purchases thau ever beforo. Whether the country will bo in¬ jured much by this turn in affairs re¬ mains to be seen, but we will suggest that the farniors had better commence preparing their compost lioaps. and arranging to make a cotton crop with¬ out the usual supply of fertilizers. With proper care, beginning now, nearly every fanner can manage to make fertilizer* at home sufficient to use on all the cotton he ought to plant. If pcoplo cannot get guano without the money, thev will be forced to try the experiment of getting along with¬ out it, and it may yet turn out to be a blessing to three-fourths of our peo¬ ple. (iieor*;o P. Ilriitlei. In our Issue of the 12th in*t., we published, as will bo remembered, an extract from tho official report of Hen¬ ry Fink, receiver of the E. T., V. G. railroad, m which Eastman made a much more favorable showing from a business standpoint than did cither Hawkinsville or Cochran. In refuta¬ tion whereof wo are met with a ttias t irly effort lrom tho facile pen of Bro. Woods, whoso back hair seenri8 to be assuming a bristling aspect. He first charges us with being “bilious,” then makes faces at us; insinuates that ■wo’vo been “gallivanting over the world, coquetting with millionaires” etc., then suggests that our people “stay at home and work like wo have been doing for several years,” inti¬ mating that if wc pursue the course indicated, we will not be forced to make “odious comparisons” next year, and finally concludes with a patroniz¬ ing ironical invitation for us to “take eoino “biled beans.” Now, we are hardly accustomed to dealing with such unanswerable logic as all this, and scarcely know what re¬ ply to make. Such flinging sarcasm, is indeed terrible to bear, and if, as a long suffering people, we do endure it, wo trust that our reward will bo proportionately great. But don’t cry any more, sonny. Don’t let the iron enter your soul Bro. Woods; wo inoant no harm. It wasn’t our inten¬ tion to “pint fingers.” It isn’t Hawk iusvillc’s fault that 6ho don’t figure any any better in Maj. Fink’s report; it’s only her misfortune. Neither is Hawkinsville to bo blamed for East man’s rapid growth and prosperity— sho cannot help it. Wo don’t need any “biled beans” for food, nor “Bile Beans” lor medicine. Our organism is as healthy as our business growth, for we are not situated ou the banks of a sluggish stream, and consequently aro not troubled with chill* and fever. A young woman, rich and of good family, has procured a liconse and is going to marry the condemned mur¬ derer and anarchist, Spios, uow await¬ ing sentenco of death in Chicago, There is no accounting for a woman’s tastes. This affair has, foi the first time, aroused an emotion of sympathy for tho hardened villain. It is a pity that ho should throw himself away upon a woman with so little sense and taste. Wo aro sorry for Mr. Spies.— Thoma*ville Times. Another year has demonstrated the fact that farmer* can’t profitably make an outlay of 8 ceut* per pound in or¬ der to have a few bales of 8 cent cot¬ ton t« sell at the end of tho year. If they will give next year to provision » crop*, and buy an avorage crop of cot¬ ton at the end of the year, thoy will ffnd it an improvement on the pre¬ vailing method. By buying tho crop ready raado, much trouble will be ‘ avoided and tho margin for profit* •will not bo a whit lessened.—Sparta 4 Ishmaelite. $P ff Prohibition a Dead Failure. The Atlanta Evening Capitol of tl»* 18th inst., print* theao significant word*: “A* a prohibition paper that ha* fought for that side because wc be lievetl the pcoulo of Atlanta had the nerve to carry it out, ami if properly carried out would prove a blessing, we now feel it our duty after a few months’trial, to pronounce it, to all appearances, a dead failure in At lanta. In fact, whiskey and beer arc sold almost a* much as eve**, only tho city gets nothing for it. The promise of the prohibition leaders as regards in¬ creasing the polico force and reducing expenses (criminal) and other promi¬ ses, has proven a farce, and the city by its division has been depressed or cast down financially, while other cities have profited by its relapse. Liquor saloons are getting to be more numerous than ever, only the li¬ cense has been reduced from $500 to $100 a year, and the property holders will have to pay for the loss. Tho property holders will be op¬ pressed now to pay for extra appro¬ priations and losses bv cutting off of license, anti still the whisky work goes ou and crime is not decreased.” A Desperate Woman Kills Five of Her Childreu. Cleveland, Ohio, Jan. 20. —James Cabaloko is a wellto-do carpenter. His wife was out of temper at the^break fast table this morning and refused to talk to her husband. After he and his oldest son went lo work, the moth¬ er sent two sons, aged fourteen and fifteen, on errands. When they re¬ turned they could not get into the house. In the back yard thoy found a younger brother bleeding from ma¬ ny wounds. They speedily called help and biokejjinto the house and found their two little sisters, aged five and three, and a brother aged threo months, dead from many stabs. A girl of eight was seriously hu«*t,and she with the boy found in the back yard will probably die. A blood) pair of shears told the story, A hunt was inado for tho mother. She was found in tho cellar, hanging from a rafter, dead. Sho had killed her three children, mortally injured two others and had then suicided. The two chil¬ dren who were still alive were re¬ moved to a’ neighbor’s house. No cause for the [terrible deed is given. Tho husband docs not think that his wife was iusane. Three Tramp* Darned to Death in a Locke! Freight Ccr. Louisville, Jan. 17.—At 2*15 a. m. to-day, as a special freight train of 19 ; cars into loadod 1 aducah, with Ky., cotton on the was lino pulling of the | i Chesapeake, Ohio and Southcin tai>- j road, one of the cars was discovered to bo ou fire. It had been taken on am! locked at Memphis, being trans¬ ferred from tho Louisville, New Or¬ leans and Texas railroad at that point. The engineer backed on thesido track and the crew endeavored to extinguish the flames with hose attachments. All they succeeded in doing, however, was to prevent tho fire from spreading to other cars. Whilo removing tho de¬ bris of the burned car, four dead bod¬ ies, charred beyond recognition, were discovered. They are supposed to have been tramps. Whether white or black it is Impossible to say. The car was locked at Memphis, but the meu must have entered to their horrible fate through a window in tho end, whieh could have been opened from the outside. Ex-President Davis Acknowledges a Gift from Capt. Martin. Hawkinsville, Jan. 20.—Captain John II. Martin, of this city, has re¬ ceived a letter from cx-Prcsldent Jef¬ ferson Davis. Capt. Martin had cut a cane from the spot, near Irwinville,on whieh the ex-president and party had encamped the night before their cap¬ ture, and in acknowledgement of its reception, Mr. Davis writes; “I know not by what strange chance your letter has remained so long unacknowledged. It certainly was not caused by any want of ap¬ preciation of its very gratifying ex¬ pressions, for which, at this late day, accept my sincere thanks. This caue you sent me is doubly valuable by its associations and the caro you took to select it. Though connected with a sad misadventure, whicli has been the theme of many scandalous falsehoods, I can not remember as other than a crowning misfortuno without shame. Please give my kindest regards to Lieut. N. C. Munroo, whose youthful experience has, I hope, been fol¬ lowed by a successful uoanhood.” A Step In the Right Direction. All fair-minded mon, says the Au¬ gusta Chronicle, will cordially endorse Gov. Gordon in the position he has recently taken protective ot the land owners of Southern Georgia. The practice of issuing forgod titles to land, in consummating tho sale of the latter, ha* been followed through years past. In what aro known a* wild land*, tho practice has obtained to at) alarming extent. Indeed there la scarcely a tract of these lands In the state that is not claimed by two or threo different parties other than the rightful owner. Tho state’s policy as to theae lands ha9 been violently wrong, and, in that view, calculated lo encourage the practico* which Gov. Gordon seems resolved to stamp out. Lnclt ifr * Dry Town. Mr. William C. Watson, formerly a citizen of Crawford county, has be¬ come a citizen of Hawkinsville. Two or threo weeks ago the old gentleman concluded lo 'return to his former home and see his friends. lie found everything very < *dry”up in Houston, Crawford and Monroe, as prohibition is in force, and he decided to come back home by way of Fort Valley When he reached that town he was so dry that he was spit ting low middling cotton with the market weak and “fu¬ tures” oif sixteen points. Just about that time “Uncle Billy” saw a man that he used ,to know, and he knew if there was anything in Fort Valley stronger than “slump water” that man should know where it was. He made himself known, and the man winked a a wunk that Uunclo Billy recognized. They proceeded a short distance and entered a hole in the ground called a cyclone pit. In the cavernous depths of this lonely and sequestered portion of earth Mr. Watson was not only in¬ troduced to Tom and Jerry, two old acquaintances, but an ancient Craw¬ ford county jug full of good rye whis¬ ky was set out, and he hit it a lively “liquor two.” •‘Uncle Billy” says if you lust know how to monkey around in these pro¬ hibition towns you can get something every time. lie says “if you don’t see what you want, ask for it,” would do for a sign in a cyclone pit as well as in a dry goods store.—Hawkinsville Dispatch. Gophers by the Wagon Load. Alapaua, Ga., January 24. —Owen and Pnrley Tatorn, two brothers, orig inally from North Carolina, are pro prielors of large turpentine and naval stores business about five miles from this place. At an early hour one day last week (about daylight, and a bit ter cold morning) they were awakened from their slumbers by yelling at their front gate. They went out to ascertain tho cause and were greatly surprised to find Richard Gray, of Ir win county, on hand with an oxcart completely filled with gophers; all sizes, ages and kinds of the gopher family, from the young pale-faced oue-eyed gopher to the old wise-looking gopher; some with ini tials cut deeply in the shell of their back, and also showing signs of their great age. Several 1 noticed were marked thus: WS W 1819, J McM S P. 1809, C FM 1770. Mr. Gray hung around until the sun was tie dining, vainly attempting to dispose j of his load oF gopher meat to the hands of Mr. Tatum. Finally ho grew ! angry, seized an ax, cut one of the s j at , lrom cart b ot iy and then W onded hi 9 way slowly homeward, i gophers escaping at each turn ot j jJjq wheels. N^ext morning the road i wag strewn with * gophers for half a i m j lc j j John L. Sullivan. John L. Sullivan is nursing a broken arm gotten in his Minneapolis fight. The doctors say that John L. will come out all rigl.t, ami tlmt he will be able Oght with hi. old-timed power. Sullivan’s wifo doesn’t be¬ lieve his arm is broken. Hhc thinks it is a dodge worked by tho big pugilist to save himself from a sound thrashing. Hero is an extract from one of her letters : “I see by the New York Herald that Sullivan says he has a broken arm and cannot fight. It is all a lie. I know hi* old dodges, and this is one of them. Patscy Cardiff was too much for him, and he Invented the lame arm idea to save himself from a big whipping. I remember one time when he met Mitchell he told me that the Englishman would have done him up in one more round. That is John L. Sullivan all over. lie jumps at a man at the start and usually finishes him in the first or second round, or makes him unable to do much fight¬ ing. If he fails to use his enemy up at the end of three rounds Sullivan grows scared, loses his grit and ories baby, the way he did in Minneapolis. I tell you that Patsey Cardiff can whip John L., and I am glad of it. He is a big brute and a coward.” John L. and Mrs. Johu L., don’t get along nowadays. A Texan Traiu Boarded by Bandits. Fort Worth, Tex., January 23.—At 3 o’clock this morning, as tho east bound Texas and Pacific express was pulling out of Gordon, a small station sixty miles west of here, two masked and armed meu jumped on the en¬ gine and covered the engineer and fire¬ man with their revolvers. The engi¬ neer was forced to puil ahead until the train reached a high trestle two miles east of Gordon. As soon as the engi¬ neer and baggage and mail car had passed over the trestle, the train stopped, leaving the passenger coach on the trestle. At this point the masked men wero reinforced by six assistants. The robbers then went through the express car, ta king all the money and valuables in the safe, the amount being estimated at from $2,000 to 15,000, although the Pacific express officials refuse to state the ex¬ act amount stolen. The robbers then proceeded to the mail car, where they obtained twenty-eight registered packages. The passengers were not disturbed, aud their coache3 beiug on a high trestle they could not get out to assist the traiumeu. There is no clue to the robbers. A DUEL DECLINED. It is Better to be Spurned and Eat Three Meals a Day Than to be Shot to Death. The editor of the Rustler having published an article concerning Col. Bowser, which the latter seemed of¬ fended at, was both astonished and dismayed to receive a challenge to a duel, signed by the Colonel, in which lie was offered his choice of weanons as well as locality. lie did not answer by mail, as be was requested to, but the ensuing is¬ sue of his paper containing the fol¬ lowing: “Readers of the Rustler will remem berthat in our la8t issue we described Colonel Bowser as a man who would not hesitate to rob his father's grave to got tho filling from his teeth. We said this in our own innocent way, and merely in the light of a metaphor. “Had we meant any thing of the kind we would have^been deterred from saying it by a knowledge of the fact that Bowser’s father had no fill¬ ing in his teeth, unless tbey^were padded with zinc, as that* gentleman died at the county poor farmland was buried in a dry goods box. “We arc surprised that anyone could imagino for a moment that we should distort the facts seriously. We know that the Colonel is an expert at thinning out lieu-roosts fcwhcn the midnight*bell* are’tolling, but wc give him credit for more een*e than to dis sect a grave for the purpose of secur¬ ing a few fragments of zinc. In regard to the duvl, we must say that such a proceeding is not com patiblo with our moral training. We were raised in the elevating and en ; nobling atmosphere of a St. Louis boarding house, and we have never known a harsher note than tho tinkle of a dinner bell, and never struggled with anything tougher than a buck wheate cake. “A man who has walked the paths of peace all his life is naturally averse to taking up a shotgun when tho snows of fifty winter* have whitened his hair. The Colonel;was reared in the midst of powder and shell, as ho worked for twenty years as a porter in a powder magazine, and consc quentlv, he knows more about that business than we do. “We may be accused of cowardice, but will take tho chances. People nav sneer and look at us with cold, chilling glance*, and. perhaps, spurn u* entirely, but wc would sooner be spurned until tho cows conic home, j and frozen with egiance*, than i be found stretched out in a hog pas lure with our toes turned to the bl*vik mid-winter heavens and a hole in our bosom big enough to put a gato poet in* “There isn’t much glory in being spurned, but we d rather be spurned ai *d be able to eat three square meals j a day than to have our name heralded byjpaid obituary, notices while we lav out in the moist night air with the silvery moonlight streaming through an aperture in our system. “If the Colonel will meet us in our <l ' vn b » k l’ ai ' d aml kavc hi * f'"' 3 wiil endeavor to wear a hole in the ground with him, as we hare always been used to wrestling and pounding sand ami other healthy ex¬ ercises, but when he desires us to hold a gun and stand the chance of being filled with powder and gravel, we must firmly, but respectfully, de ciine.”—St. Louis Whip. Floating Down Stream. Darien, Ga., Jan. 24.—“Dead man on do raf!” Tills expression given vent to in whispering accent was speedily trans¬ mitted from man to man as a large raft of timber, impelled by a switt ebb-tide, approached the public boom. The raft was finally tied up, and there he lav, poor fellow, stietched out on one cf those tremendous giants of the forest that had succumbed to his own heroism. There he lay, clad in the rough costume of the pincy woods —the picture of the typical son of toil in the prime ot life. “He pulled very hard yesterday, sir. Had to do it, you know, up In the nar¬ rows. At last ho gave out. lie just laid down, asked us to pour tome wa¬ ter on his head, and died.” “Got a family ?” “Yes, a whole houseful of little children, dependent on bis daily la¬ bor.” It was Henry Dopsomof Hazleburst, who slept the last long, peaceful sleep on one of the sturdy pines whose gi¬ ant crown, perhaps since childhood, had overshadowed his simple home. There is no use of doing any busi¬ ness when the expenses are in excess of the income. Every man should so conduct his business that he can take a balance sheet at the end of every season, just as a merchant takes a trial balance cf his books to show the profits and losses. In this way a farm¬ er, who keeps accurately, an itemized statement of expenditures, can gee ex¬ actly what has become of the money and articles used in making a crop. By this means unnecessary or extrava¬ gant expenditures in any one way can be noted and checked. The little ex¬ penses are the most burdensome in the aggregate, and if not closely watched, will eat up the profits of any business, and especially farming. — Albany News.
