Soon after the death of Hon. A. H. Stephens, a proposal was made to purchase Liberty Hall, and keep it as a piece of public property. An association was organized for this purpose—the purchase ! was made, and a considerable ! portion of the purchase money raised ^ voluntll T subscrip¬ tions. Hut after a time, efforts to raise the remainder were dis continued, and the interest on the sum accumulated. some plan he devised to lift indebtedness, the property must in no great while pass into hands of privute individuals. The thousands of admirers of our greatest Georgian should not permit this to take place We are constrained to believe that they would not were the matter properly brought to their attention. A small sum from the thous¬ ands who hold the name of the illustrious statesman in tender reverence would not only pay off the debt, hut establish the begin¬ ning of an endowment, the inter¬ est, of which would keep the prop¬ er! y in repair. But how shall this he affected? We suggest, that the teachers throughout the state, but more especially in the Tenth congress¬ ional district be requested to act as agents in the matter. Let each one take up a nickel or dime collection in his or her school, sending tin? amount to Mrs. M. A. Sanford. Crawfordville, Ga., w ith the names of each donor and each amount given—list to be published in The Constitution and preserved. It, would be a grand thing thus to give each boy and girl in all our schools a personal interest in Alexander H. Stephens, and make them feel that they are in part owners of the spot that was his home, Mrs. M. A. Sanford. A man talics about owning hi business. But, as a matter of fact his business owns him. His whole life is regulated by the demands of the business. The time at which he rises, his break¬ fast hour, the time given to meals, tire all determined by business obligations. He rushes through -lunch because he “can’t sp&tyfrf 'ie time from business" to store or office. He is in fact an absolute slave k> business. The | j a™ results to be which seen follow on every this slavery hand. Men dyspeptic, > [ irritable, nervous with(h . a wi Rnd hollow s it at the desk or stand behind the counter until they collapse in a tit of sickness, or are taken away by heart failure. I Those who cannot escape the i exactions of business will find a friend in Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery. It strength¬ ens the stomach, increases the action of the blood-making glands, increasing the vitality and physical vigor. It makes men strong and prevents those business break downs which so | 011 b' 1 minute fatally. Those fellows who are ad vising far ners to hold their cotton forget the fact that few are to hold their cotton crippling their friends who have advanced supplies for them early iu the year. If those who advise will toll how to hold cotton do justice to tlm creditor they will do a charitable deed. We find that our country peo pie are heartily in favor of get ting up a cotton factory here. They see it in the right light and if they will give their aid wheth er it be much or little, the smoke of tiie factory will soon be seen. and the circulation of the cash brought in by it will soon bo felt in the pockets of those who help build it. During the civil war. as well as in our late war with Spain, diarrhoea WAS one of the most troublesome , , diseases ,. the , army ; had to contend with.

I ■ with The only trouble plan that we can see just now is that the speculating world would 5 tight it from the start to the fi.iishand the shrewd financiers in that line are hard to whip, We sympathize with Editor -Shackelford of the Oglethorpe Echo in the death of his mother, Mrs. R. E. Shackelford, who died at Lexington on July 30th. in her 80th year. She was the flast of the charter members of f the Lexington Baptist church. The state of Georgiaisborrow 'ng as much money as she wants in New York at 2k per cent, This shows how cheap money can be borrowed where the debt is absolutely sure of being paid promptly, if the collection laws money entirely safe it could be ] borrowed by individuals at the same low rate the state is favor ed with. A Mr. Eady has made a wise suggestion, but the speculating world would never let up in fighting such a move as he advocates. His idea is to let the goverments of the several cotton growing states get together and buy up the cotton crop at 7 cents per pound and then burn up the surplus cotton and hold the other until the eastern spinners and dealers will pay 10 cents per pourfd for it. This is practiable. as he says, if each state will issue enough script to pay for its cotton. This script will do as well any other money in exchange here, and with the state and cotton botheto back it. the script would be .good at its any where.
