PLANT CORN.
The Baltimore Manufacturers 1

same time g ving the assurance

The advice is sound In 1887
South made a larger corn crop
ever before. Fortunate as this
be underbuy circumstances, it
exceedingly fortuuate in view of
extremely short crop in tbe
and the consequent high prices.

Before another crop is raised
West will be almost bare of
and stocks will be at such a
point that an unusually heavy

of 1887 and to meet current

high, even if the yield be very large.
It is very important, tber-foir, not

WHITHER TBAVEU5© 1
The following editorial from tb«
able and eonscrratire Albauj New*
and Advertiser is suggeatire ;
Puritanism i* *o obnoxious to many
people that toleration tends to tbe !
other extreme, but in some localities j
!
the boo. uncompromising w arfare is

A small village in a uislant otii«
d <3 been the scene of a recent agitat
ing incident of the deepest intensity
of ir.tertsi to tbe romniiimty, and of
incidental concern to all communities,
it stems that a congregational church
enjoyed the ministry of a pious and
God fearing young pastor who repo*
ed securely in the confidence of his
people. When, !o! a change
comes over the spirit of tie
scene. This minister was de¬
tected in the privacy of bis home
drawing consolation from the iragrant .
tobacco stuffing of a Dutch pipe. At j
first it could scarcely he believed that •
so earnest and Godiy a man could be \
guiity of such a Godless habit of
smoking so inverse to sanctify-
ever, it was proved beyond all reason ;
able doubt, and be was dismissed from j
his pastorate.
Is not th*'-#pirit growing in a meas j
ure under the preaching of such men -
as Sam Jones and Sam Small, men who j
deny such innocent pleasures in the}
name of temperance which they vio j
late in the very language which they j
employ to express their protest? It!
takes diverse forms in different com
munities. In one it will deny tbe
preacher the right to smoke, to in
dulge a luxury which harms none and
promotes the interest of Christianity
in aiding in the assimilation of tbe
preacher’s fool, wlrch contributes to
V- *«»• vfcnmafc i
and intellectual vigor. In another, )t \
will .,, deny , right . . the , 1° ;

eventuate in any harm, hut bring
health atnl liappincss, two :>f the mos-t
powerful auxiliiarics a preacher ever
had, to quality him for the careful cul
tivation of an extended field of useful
ness.
Public opinion is the mo»t mcorri
gible tyraut that ever shackled tbe
^freedom of mental and physical loco
inotioc. Fashion manacles women’s
willing minds without a struggle, but
after an idea becomes the public opin
ion, no man or woman dare run coun
let toit.
Here iu ebrstnin, and consequent
ly charitable, communities of Georgia
it i.- as much as any man’s reputation
math less a preacher’s, is worth to
brave public opinion. The worst ol
it is that public opinion is not always
right. The intolerant spirit of public
censure ts kin to the Inquisition, it
persecutes the good for any innocuous
departure from arbitrary opinions, as
we!! as the w icked for any indulgence
that is Hurtful p»er so.
