Pneu was the causa, the attack hav come on several daya sgo and at about twelve o'clock night into congestion ot lungs. Mr. Wilson bad a long severe attack of pneumonia time ago, from which be re with difficulty. Mr. W ilson was bet ween 68 and years old at the time of death. He here from Albany some fifteen ago and lias since lived on his and comfortable farm near northeastern edge of the city. industry and good management, well as good fortune, be had amass a fortune of probably sixty tbous dollars, owning stcok* and as well as large tracts of land Southeast Geo-gia. He took out thousand dollars life insurance August on the train between and Albany, and may have other insurance. He leaves a and four children, as well as numbers of kinsmen and friends mourn bis loss. A sister with a family was expected here last to make her home in Gridin educate her children by his kind Mr. Wilson was a plain and nnoa naan, whose main endeav was to do right. Ho was a faith member of the Baptist church, a devout Christian. He was in a high degree, and the praise that can be said over will simply be that the will miss him.

The object is not only justifiable but piaisiworlhv und meritorious. The line of attack in general Las varied agencies of warfare and oontemplatee in various directions; tbe interstices between pronunciamentos of aggres ivenoss being nicely tilled in with res elutions of internal reformation. And it occurs to U6, that tbe most vulnerable point of altack, against this generol adversity of the fartnere, lies in this item of reformation of system within themselves; that sue cess as an organization wrought by a complete change of a constantly fail ing system would give more honor and credit tDau tbe crushing of a mercantile combine ; would be a vie tory permanent and subatantial, un assailed by any rallying foe and com petent of ever increasing measures. For instance—If the farmers of Washington county had raised woeat for their own consumption and a lit tie to spare, tbe effect of ‘ Old Hutch’s corner 1 * would have made them chuckle over their independence acid afforded them a fancy p ice for the little overplus. Again--If the good old custom of closing tbo crib doors and flinging the corn tu at the gable until the ridge | ole was reached, obtained day a combine which would run corn to $2.00 a bushel would be a bless ing, and the farmers would feel rath er like canonizing than cursing the monopolist who “cornered'* corn. If the waste iands were sown to rye and barley und horses und mules for our own use raised nnatbematiz ed mortgage for unacclimated stock would be a relic of the past. If worthless curs were sacrificed to flocks of sheep to browse upon tbo fertile bills of Middle Gsorgi* and afford home made wool for th« spinning wheel and loom, the volum". of cursiug uga nst high pr ces for un ion filled goods would be materially hushed. f If tbe tesonaut squexl of good fat hoi^e ftunibbed the matiu and vesper music of evetv farm home in Wash ington county, the high prices of dis . , , . . . . ease * °e ,u *“ < rom * ! l 1 l’ ,lre leaf lard ' I* made,would*>e subjects ( of discussion for the tpwn folk, not tbe farmers. * II ilie compost heap*, manipulated al LOU'U imo Ui.st valuable fer i i*art at small cow, would i ks toe ,nuco of the commercial C°ode which smell SO loud and seem cs. strong in the annuo but -re odorless and '“o- 7*'“ the lands would gmcionaJ/ improve in tertihty.

Scheuerman & White, A roint 111 celery Culture. Celery of any kind, whether self blanch ing or not, is much more crisp and tender if banked with earth. A good way of preventing the earth from sifting in among the stalks, says a correspondent in Garden and Forest, is to wrap each plant in a strip of butcher’s paper, say from eight to ten inches wide. With a garden trowel earth enough to bold the papers in place should can be hilled easily managed; then the plants be up almost to the top of the papers.
