Americus, Ga., July 30, 1801. A GRAVE SITUATION. The Times-Rkcordeb feels impelled to call attention to a very serious trouble in store for the South, which will result when the West shall have absorbed for the movement of its wheat crop the bulk of the reduced volume of currency available in New York for the general crop movement.

The advertisement is from the Valdosta Times, as follows; •yyANTS A HUH BAN IX—All old bachelor ried over from the last crop. This emergency seems to demand that the business men of Georgia meet to gether in council and confer on some method of preparing for the trouble that will surely come, unless proper precau tions are taken to provide against it. Let there be a convention of leadiug business men in Atlanta, to consider this financial constriction, and dev se ways and means to remedy it if possible. “In the multitude of counsellors b safety.” The Ti.mes-Rei oi:i)KR suggests Tues- •day, August 11, and calls upon the pres* of Georgia to lend Its aid in awakening the people to a proper senso of the dan ger, and urging them to act before the (movement of cotton begins and the irisis is actually upon us. The Times-Recokdeu has no desire to pose as an alarmist, but feels that it would be derelict in its duty not sound a note of warning. It is not the part of wisdom to sit su pinely anu wait until trouble comes. “The prudent man foresees the evil and bides himself, but tlio simple pass On^ud arc perished.” The ussiguees of Moses's bank, Mont- goraery, Ala., which assigned July 0th, have filed a schedule of assets of the late firm. The assignees make no estimate of value, but the amount is placed nomi nally at $0,000,000, which consists largely of stocks, bonds, real estate and lands distributed in various sections of Alabama. The liabilities are placed at $1,100,000. The creditors now propose to form a trust company, all to take shares to the amount of their claims, and the plan is thought to be a feasible one and likely to result in securing the holders of claims against loss. There has been no other financial trouble here on account of the failure of this bank. Other banks have not been in tho least affected, and business U going along as usual. In olden times Moses led the people out of tho wilderness; now Moses has Iqd them into the brush, and the people are preparing to lead him out. Thus Is tho leader led. The Augusta Chronicle calls attention to the fact that there is a bad spirit abroad in the State, stirring up antaj onism.5 between the county and the city, between the farmers and tho merchants, between the farmers and the corpora tions, and between tho men w ho labor and their employers. If there is such a spirit abroad in tho State, and the evi dence is not lacking, there ought to be a combination of the good people of Geor gia, of every calling and occupation, to etrangle it.-—Columbus Enquirer. The Boston Herald (Independent) hopes that Mr. Crisp may be chosen speaker. It considers him, of all the candidates, the one best qualified for the office. Amdng his qualifications it instances “a general courtesy of bearing and a disposition of fairness toward his opponents.” The Minnesota Alliancemen have dis covered that they cannot participate In the great wheat ooroer proposed |by the MuUer clrrnlar.

While, therefore, we may not experience a reasonably aotlve money market, we see no reason for ap prehending any embarrassing stringency. Assuming then that the harvest turns out as it now promises, it seems safe to anticipate for the second half of tho year a run of active and prosperous btisi- New York Commercial Bulletin. WHO WILL IT BE? After reading Mr. Pat Calhoun's speech in Talbott county, last week, the Charleston World concludes that the vice-president of the Richmond & Dan ville will be in the raco for governor of Georgia next year. We learn by tho grape vino telegraph that the opposition to Governor Nor- then is somewhat anxiously casting about for a candidate with whom to de feat the present executive. Prior to Mr. Calhoun’s appointment to high corporative office which ho now holds, there was reason to believe that lie would accept the gubernatorial nomina tion were it tendered him. Within tho last two or three weeks, however, Mr. Calhoun’s relations to the public and corporate interests have changed, and it is improbable that he now looks for ward to immediate political honors. It is uot likely that he considers seek ing any public trust less remote than the seat iu the United States senate, which Gordon will vacate in 1897. It has been given out by Mr. Calhoun's friends that ho will not aspire to suc ceed even Senator Colquitt. The man who will opposo Gov. Nortlien next year has not yet boon named, but, If wo ware guessing, wo would say that his name is something like Capt. E. P. How ell’s.—Savannah 'Times. widower needing h wife will pie address Miss tt. F. lAexandek. Bristol, Fla, The’ editor of the Early County News is in hard luck. He had packed his lin en duster, and was all ready for the trip to Washington and New York with the Weekly Press Association, but his passes failed to reach him in time, and of course he couldn’t go. But Editor Howard was not to be put out in this style. When the passes did come he boarded the train for a turn to Macon and Atlanta, and feels just as well as if he had been to New York. During tho lato session of the Ala bama Press Association, Senator John T. Morgan delivered a speech, in which ho said: “If every family in Alabama was a subscriber to some good newspaper, I would consider that we were fifty years in advance of the present.” This solid chunk of wisdom is commended to those people in this city aud county who don’t subscribe to The Times-Recorder, or who read their neighbors’ papers. The Augusta Evening News is twit ting Mr. Twitty bill, or Bill Twltty, as the case may be, on the fact that he re cently refused to have the 10 per cent, lawyer’s fee clause strick en out of a note which he took from a farmer to whom he lent money; a fact which the Athens Ledger says it can prove. Dr. Twitty prescribes his medicine for other people, but don't want any of it himself. For the second time the committee on general judiciary of the house of repre sentatives has reported adversely on the bill to put sleeping car, express and tel egraph companies under the control of the railroad commission of the state in the matter of regulation of the rates. This probably means the defeat of the bill, which, after two full hearings be fore the committee, has met with a fail ure each time. A CONSPIRACY AGAINST TIIE SOUTH. Richmond Terminal stock and bonds were firm yesterday, and the efforts of tho bears on Wall street to force the prices down again were unavailing. In the same connection may be men tioned the well-grounded suspicion that there is iu New York a conspiracy against the south—a conspiracy to delay the Industrial development of that sec tion and whenever possible to provent the investment of money here in any enterprise. The conspiracy is said to have originated by tho promoters of largo land and investment schemes in tho west, Of course the resources of the south are now too well -known for that section to suffer very much from such a conspiracy, but at the same time it would bo possible to prevent the In vestmeut of large sums of money there. — Constitution.

Neither Mr. Gould nor Mr. Sago is believed to bo in the Terminal stock. Tho rumor never had any official con firmation, but the course of tho prices of the securities in the market gave it some plausibility, as the present tumble is in accordance with Jay** usual style of scooping stocks. The Globe-Democrat says the Repub licans will be satisfied if In 1892 they carry the states carried In 1888, and five out of tho six states admitted since then. That is a great deal more than last year's elections and present pros pects entitle them to expect.
