AsIiwoimI Notes.
Asinvoon, •December 10.—Htitrtiug
from this pluco Inst Wednesday
inorning I went foith in searcli of
tilt hy lucre for the Ga/.htti-; and
found the most of those who owe the
paper at liomu hut on account of Lhu
scarcity of money collections were
not very good though several paid
up and others promised to remit at
an early day. I collected a butch of
notes which I hope will interest your
readers,
Mr. O. B. Luke is preparing to
boil.l him a commodious log dwelling
at his home four miles east of Nash
ville.
Mr. \V. Harrison GriDiu lias been
.lonliued to his lied for twenty-two
days with Typlm-,'Malarial fever and
only took his bed after trying to wear
and work off the ailment three weeks
lie is very low 1ml strong hopes arc
entertained for his recovery.
Mr. Thomas DeVulIv, an eld mid
highly respected citizen of the Lois
neighborhood, while helping to ruisu
a log crib at. J. I*. DeVmie’s on last
Thursday was a week ngo lost his
footing and feel across <>nc of the
sleepers breaking a couple of ribs and
hrustng himself up pretty badly oth
erwiso. 11c was thrown into o vio
lent fever attended by dclctiumnnd
Dr. L. A. Carter, of Nashville, was
summoned, whose timely arrival and
medical skill soon relieved the old
gentleman and at Inst accounts he
was getting along very well.
Mr. Ansel Mathis, of tho Fountain
llesd community, arrived homo from
the Gulf const on lost Wednesday
night bringing a load of fish and
oranges. We'd like to board there a
few days if it was possible.
Thursday we dined at tlie hoitiu of
Editor 0. K. Wohli, of the Adel
and we ate under lasting obti-
him and family for court-
ciatcd din-
; con-
lefteri
romance; his statistics of Berrien pro
gress dazzles my friends with their
proprotion*, and nlniost cbalenge niv
own credulity at every page perused.
1 nssertain further tlultsincu tho de
pression of trade and commerce nn,d
finance, you liave steadily progressed
in 'comfort uud independence, havo
htoLgoot} crops while thousands of
citizens tn-the great Northwest have
lacked bread.. No honest man in
Berrien lias been ui liout rctntitiera
tjve labor and'n'ono Jinve.gomito lied
hungry. Your pursuits and their re
sults form the basts of flic’ ideal De
mocracy; Happily indeed ’ realized
within your own boundaries. Tlie
tendency of all your industry is
toward, the accumulation of indepen-
onco competency and does not favor
the. upbuilding of collossal fortunes.
You arc dealing daily with the essen
tial things of life,-and aro not warped
in your’Judgement nor deflected from
your course by speculation anil illus
ory schemes of advantage, and gain.
Yim arq laiidowjiur^. in tho floivory
dell pf ilil* grttit coi'itinent, free hold
ers, uiprmlil'tltle thnt conics only with
the strength of civilization. A title
that every young man in this hurl,
should make it his objuet to ndmire
and honor. Thu man who possesses
fertile acres in Berrien, which Ite lias
earned by bis honest labor, is not apt
to fall in with thp doctrmo of tlie
communist, that no otto has a right to
ownership in tho'-' soil. Tho brave
fanners of Berrien will control Its
destiny. Agriculture, Commerce and
Manufacturing arc the three pursuits
that enrich if comliififiiKy,- brtt the
greatest of these is agriculture; for
without its products the mill cannot
grind, ami the ship will nut sail. Ag
riculture furnishes tho conservative
element of society, and in the end is
the guildiug, restraining, controlling
force in every land. Against storms
of popular tin y; against frenzied mad
ness that seeks collision with estab
lished order; against the theories of
administration, the farmers will stand
as tho shield and the protection.
Thu swelling and ourushlng tide of
iiuigration will in brief time be toward
the Southeast, to the brood pinc lands
of South Georgia, to the rich acresof
rich fruit lands that lie in your section.
Often I might with my love for
Georgia, nty earlier affection for tho
dear old stato far to the South, where
nil honest, brave ancestry lio hurried.
And where my tendorust memories
cluster around the fninilli.tr scenes of
dnys long past. It is this kindslnp of
blood, these ties of relationship that
makes us Georgia ponplo as ono.
Uniting tho East and tlie West, North
and South, in tho indisanluzblu bonds
of a common and (trust, always ben-
oficicnt government.
Yours respectfully,
Jkiiky K. Oowlks.
