The splendid price that is now being paid for cotton should not cause farm ers to plant more cotton and less corn than last year. It should be borne in mind that the South has the cotton field of the world. Other countries raise it, but Southern cotton stands first in the markets of the world. This being true, farmers should plant less and make more through preparation for what is planted. It is the first du ty of a farmer to raise his supplies, and then raise what cotton he can as a surplus crop. High prices for cotton are usually a delusion and a snare. The high prices that obtained directly after the war is still fresh in the memory of all cotton growers. These prices caused most farmers to abandon raising their sup plies ; and to this source can be traced, by ineffacable foot-prints, thp illiad of their woes. It was calculated by the enthusiastic cotton grower, that he could not afford to raise corn when cotton was woith twenty-five cents a pound; to raise he would lose money, but to make cotton, he would coin it. Money was plentiful, high prices were paid for everything. With a plethora of money, farmers speut lavishly, bought on a credit at high prices, and & steady decline in cotton culminated in tho panic of ’73, in which many of them were ruined, and most of them finan cially embarrassed. Had they been conservative in rais ing cotton —had they raised half the amount of cotton and all of their sup plies, to-day would find cotton selling at twenty cents a pound and the exec ution dockets and mortgage rt cords un marked by evidences of accumulating, and, in many instances, overwhelming debt. The mortgage records are mar red with land mortgages, taken by northern capitalists. But few farmers have any idea what inroads are being made on southern property by tho rich, yankee money lender. If things contiuue to go as they have gone for the last few yeais, the native land own er will be forced to surrender his title to his avaracious northern neighbor, and become his tenant. While these views are somewhat forcibly drawn, they are backed bv facts, and as such, we should look them squarely in the face and apply a remedy. That reme dy Tiie ll i nky County Weekly has frequently given—raise vonr meat and bread at home, let cot- ton be the surplus crop. It canuot be denied that if the cotton crop was re duced one half, the price would be doub led wliat it now is. This was sliowu plainly during the four years of war, when none was made.; it went to a dol lar a pound. In the face of these facts it is sheer folly to raise all cotton and buy supplies ou a credit. Live at home and save your money, and in a few years you will do all the money lend* ing of 'he State.

In, Mcltounugh's I'u i in We are not of those who are dispos ed to take pessimistic views of the town’s future, but we know that no one is so blind as h« who will not see. “Coming events cast their shadows be fore,” and the building of the Middle Georgia & Atlantic R. R. from Mach en to Atlanta, via Peachstone Shoals, will necessarily abridge the finest por tion of our trading territory. The Shoals, as a matter of course, will be a town of considerable importance, and many good farmers who now trade here will go there to do their trading. 1 here is another impending danger to the territory to the north east of us; the Georgia Midland is sure to be built from here to some point on the Geoigia, Carolina and Northern. wliich has been located from the state border on the east to Atlanta. We have assurances that as soon as dirt is broken (which will not be long; in Georgia, on this road, the Georgia Mid land authorities will at once begin the extension, with a terminus at Jug Tav ern. The building and extension of these roads will leave McDonough but little available territory. Without territory the town must necessarily retrograde, unless its citizens endeavor to do some thing by local manufacturing enterpiis es. There a number of enterprises that would pay the investor, and at the same time prevent a stagnation in busi ness and dwarfing our growth. Griffin found itself much in the same predica ment that we are soon to be in, and to offset her loss of tiading territoiy be gan building manufactories, which was dene without stint, and the consequence is she has better prospects of success now than before the railroads were built. This is the only avenue left us to escape the dry rot. There is plenty of idle capital in five miles of McDonough to build a SIOO,OOO cotton factory, a s‘2. r >,ooo cotton oil mill and $2,000 can ning factory. These enterprises, set, on foot, will put the town on the road to prosperity, and will more than com pensate for the loss of territoiy taken by the new railroads, but if nothing Is done in behalf of the town its decline is inevitable. Kingian; Hoinea. In the ears, sometimes a roaring buz zing sound are caused by catarrn, that exceedingly disagreeable. Loss of smell or hearing also result from ca tarrh.

If you suffer from catarrh, try Hood’s Sarsaparilla, the peculiar medicine. Im. llere'a a 1 lae Kettle •ri'bh. The people of tho United States have been forced to witness a spectacle in the United Stales Congress, which for daring, ucprecidented villiany and subveisive tendencies, has no parallel in the annals of the government. Heed, tho autocrat, ignoring the minority, making his will paramount to every. thing. Former rules and precileuts are swept aside, and the ruffian who disgraces the speaker’s chair essays to brow-beat the solid democratic phal anx. Hacked, in his revolutionary ac tions, by a majority of republican pluu ders, whose itching palms prompt them to wage war on honestly elected demo crats, in that they may be unseated to give the looters an easy working ma jority to despoil the treasury. Hut of one thing, the country can rest assured, thut while the revolution ists are iording it with a high hand, tho American public has its eyes upon them : and will punish their perfidy by consigning its instigators and perpetra tors to oblivion. They have set a pre cideut for gagging the minority, and Bourbons, though they be, the Demo crats can and will learn in the next house (which will be democratic) to put the screws to the dogs, who for party ends have done them irreparable wrong—a wrong for which there is no excuse, except inate meanness and a hankering to outdo their bag-carrying, treacherous prototype, the base Judean, who for thirty pieces of siyer betrayed the Christ. Do your worst, you thieving curs, the gods have their miller at work, aud while he takes his toll slowly, your turn will come after a while. Rost assured that he will re quire of you a full measure. The Democratic sleuth-hounds of tar iff reform are likewise ou your .foetid trail ; they have somewhat against you for robbing the farmer,mechanic,and all laboring people of their small pitance which you give to piotected million aire industries.

It is painfully apparent that any body but a farmer is their ehoice. Among a few of the latest is Gen. Clement A. Evans, of Augusta, Mr. High 1 miff Walsh, of the same village, Tom Glenu, of Atlanta, and Judge Cusp, member of Congress The first nominee is in better business than politics—he’s a good Methodist minister, and the people will not de base his high calling by flinging him in the slush of politics. Mr. Walsh would make a good governor of—a high tar iff Yankee state, but Georgia does not need him. Mr. Glenn is peart young man ; has made some reputa'ion as a lawyer and lots of money; but in as much as he is the Constitution’s candidate, the people art* inclined to think "there is a nigger in the wood pile,” so it would be well for Mr. Gleen to step down and ont. W hen lie is backed by the people he can ferry—his present backing is too impuisaut. As for Judge f'li-p the State of Georgia, and the great demo cratic party cannot do without him in Congiess. He can homestead on the office as brig as he hits the hateful how lers as hard as he did their apostle, Tom Reed, a few days ago. What’s the matter with the farmers? Is there no material among them fit to make a governor ? We have been un able to find any flies on Livingston, Peek and First-Hale Joqes. While it is true that the farmers represent a -mall portion of the people of Georgia as compared with learned professions, yet, as they have not hail a governor from their ranks from the time where of the memory of man runneth to the contrary, suppose we try it on just once ; once invested in gubina torial harness it is to be feared the peo ple will get stuck on him, and will not want to change. Foul poisons that accuiumiilate in the blood and rot the machinery of the system, are eradicatec and expelled bv using Prickly Ash Hitters, a medicine that will not irritate the stomach or bowels. It acts in a gentle manner on these delicate organs, and retores health in every case. lm. Here is a few facts that show how Omnipotence regards tho Democratic and Republican presidents. A Dem ocratic president hasever been assassin ated, and the Democrtic party has been in existence a hundred years or more. In twenty two years the republicans have had two presidents assassinated, one by a madman and the other by a republican of republicans ; in other words, the pur est of the breed. It is safe to predict that the democrats for the next hun dred years will retain the government three fourths of the time, and the republicans to keep up their present ratio of assassinations for the same length of time must have it twen tv. four years. The rule of the just en dures to the end, hut the corrupt ruler, who gets his office by corruption and fraud, is a target for the assassin. Avoid Appearances:— A worthy gen tleman, having an unusually red nose, was long suspected of being a tipper on the sly, by those not well acquaint ed with his strictly temperate habits, llis unfortunatedifigurement was cured by the use of Ayer’s Sarsaparilla. While we deplore the frightful loss of life in the burning of Secretary Tra cy's house, in Washington, in which Mrs. Tracy, her daughter and a French maid perished, still wo are inclined to baso the misfortune on the same line that President Harrison places his el ection—it was providential, and should serve as a warning to the surviving members of the cabinet and the presi dent, that a thing may he bribed and stolen, vet an avenging nemisis still pursues the villains; and thy best thing they can do with the presidency is to pour it back into the democratic jug. and let tariff reform pursue the even tenor of its way. Remember that Ayer’s Cherry I’ec toral has no equal as a specific for colds, coughs, and all affe. tions ef the throat and lungs. For nearly half a century it has been in greater demand than any other remedy for pulmonary complaints. All druggists have it for sale. Senator Zeb Vance made a speech before the I'nited States Senate recent ly, which was one of the finest efforts made in that august body since Hob Toombs used to paralyze them. He He tells the senators something about slavery that some of them had forgot ten. He struck Mr. J. J. Ingalls, the lightening bug, square between his narrow eyes and floored him. Senator Vance is exactly in the right place ; wheu the south is slandered, by her en emies, he comes back at them with cool argumentative facts that “sets the hair on I hem.” Jt'ixiK Crisp immortalized himself iu defense of the minority’s rights in congress la»t week. He gave Czar Reed some nvghty plain, unvarnished parliamentary chat. Ha lit been de ified by one less np on parliamentary law and usage, it would have been call «d "sass but the Judge laid nil his parliamentary vinegar, and made “the wild bull of the woods” wrigle under his polished invective. Long may he live to lambaste the stuffed lion. I akk not upon thy diaphragm more tiouble tnan thou eanst kick off with thy heels,” was the advice Pontius Pilate gave to a repoiter on The Je rusalem Daily Telei/raph. It is ex cellent advice, hut the way Speaker Reed has been doing for the last feu days mak< sus red hot; the trouble is on us, and kick as we will, it keeps pil* ing up. We find our erstwhile peace ful slumbers broken half in two at one o’clock at night, and ourordinarily level head, goring the pillow in sheer despe ration. It makes us hone for an assas sin’s knife wherewith to work the qui etus of this murder of popular liberty. Sic simper tv rannis—w hich means. I’m sick, send for McGinnis. Gen Phil < ook, the intreped con federate brigadier who won his spurs in the cannon's mou h, has lieen ap pointed secretary of state to succeed Col. Harnett, deceased. Gen. Cook will grace the office as well as any liv. ing Georgian, and the people are only too proud to have a chance to do the grand old soldier honor. It is a pity he is not in congress just now —as the democrats need more men of nerve than they seem to have. Sick headache, billiousness. nsusea, costiveness, are promptly and agreea bly banished by I)r. J. H. McLean’s Liver and Kidney Pillets (little Pills.) Cleveland and tariff reform is still the cry of the masses. Down with plutocracy and high tariff is the refrain. Grover as president and Dem ocratic Congress, will give the masses their rights.
