Comes to Rome.
There wa3 some excitement oil the
street yesterday when it was anno unced
that some one in Rome had dmwn a
part of the capital prize of the Lo uisia
na State Lottery, on last Tuesc ay. A
New Orleans paper had a list o f the
lucky numbers, as follows: “No 73-987
8150,000 whole, sold in fractions in San
Francisco, Philadelphia, Buffal o, and
Auburn, N. Y. Portland, Me.,! F° rC
Wayne, Iud., Rome, Ga., and *Aber

at last. B. They F. Clark, were Miss Abbie (Webb, Tig

purchased some lottery ticketjs, and
among them was the lucky n limber.
— Rome (Ga.) Cornier, Feb. 11 i
We offer the following ten reasons
why the fanners are poor:
1. The war left them poor.
2. Dependence on the negro to do all
the work while the white man spent
he money.
3. High priced cotton created an ex
travagance that the fall of cotton
would not maintain..
4. He has paid the merchant from
twenty-five to one hundred and fifty
per cent,profit on his goods, while
farming never has paid more than
twenty- five per cent.
5. Buyi' g everything for the support
uf tlie ^ arm an< * selling only one pro
duct from the farm.
6. He has from one to two doll rs
for corn, when he could have produced
it on the farm at a cost not exceeding
fifty cents.
7. Too many planters—too few far
mers.
8. They sell their cotton seed in the
fall for seven dollars tier ton, a nd pay
in the spring thirty-five for the SilVO
material, or for something of less val
ue.
9. If a renter, the farmer has to
compete with a class of labor that can
live on nothing and clothe itself with
the same.
10. Honest people fail to pay tl. ir
debts through bad management; the
dishonest have on!y two thoughts that
they keep in view; one is. how much
can I get on a credit from my mer
chant, or neighbor by making fair
promises, or pleading destitution, and
how little of it can I man ige to pay at
the proper time? This class of people
have been supported either directly or
indirectly by the people who have paid
their just debts. We hope the day is
not far distant when this class will be

TIIE TORN AND TATTERED BATTLE
FLAG —A SKETCH OK COLONEL CLAI¬
BORNE SNEAD, ITS OALLANT COM¬
MANDER.
An ex-Confederate soldier hands US
the following, which we cheerfully
publish :
The tattered and torn battle fla of
the gallaut Third Georgia iiegimehb is
in the office of Judge Claiborne Snead,
:n Augusta. The folding is the his¬
tory of the grand old flag: It was
adopted as the battle flag of the regi¬
ment about the time the Federal Gen¬
eral McClenland was menacing the
Virginia capital city, and was carried
into every engage ment of the Army of
North-Virginia from that time to the
surrender at Appomattox Court
Hous*. At the surrender its gallant
commander, Col. Snead, took it off its
staff and placed it in ids bosom—first,
because he loved it, and second, he
concealed it from tire Federate that he
might bear it home and preserve it in
memory of the brave deceased mem¬
bers of hi? command who gloriously
tell under its folds and died for the
cause of the South.
In this connection wo give a pen pic¬
ture of Col. Snead : He is above me¬
dium size, weighs perhaps 160 pou ids,
deep blue, expressive eyes, florid com¬
plexion, indicating a nervious san¬
guine temperament; is in the 50th
year of his age, and in person is com
manding and handsome. Col. Snead
entered the service as a Lieutenant,
and such was his gallantry and efficien¬
cy, that he rapidly rose to the position
of Lieutenant-Colonel of the Kegi
ment, and when the immortal A. R.
Wright was promoted to he Brigadier
General, he took the commaud of the
Regiment
He was Cole el before lie was 30
years of age. Ill military life he was
the ft arless ankl impartial officer, and
hence was much lieloved by his soldiers.
