\\ EEKLY TIMES. BY FOUCHE «C JOHNSON. Entered at the postoffice at McDonough Ga., as second-class mail matter. McDonough. Ga., Feb. C, 1891. It is said that S&udford, of Califor nia, wants to be the‘Alliance Presiden tial candidate in 1892. Jlon. W. L. Peek has been appoint ed on Governor Northen’i staff with the rank of Lieut. Colonel. In a few years more Georgia will lie one of tbo leading fruit growing States. Its capabilities in that direction are un equalled. Hou. William Windom, Secretary of the Treasury, just after finishing a speech in New York last Friday, dropped dead from heart disease. He was buried in Washington Monday with honors becoming his station. Mr. John Blank, of Prescott, Arizo na, left there one year ago in a buggy, determined to see the South and settle in it. He took his own time, and with his buggy in a somewhat dilapidated condition he arrived in Brunswick about two weeks ago. Governor Taylor of Tennessee, who went out of office recently had, during his four years in office, pardoned 108 men under sentences ranging from death down to ten days imprisonment. The list of offenses included every crime in the calendar. The recent financial pressure that threatened so much evil is now a thing of the past. The question is, what biought about the change for the bet ter? There is no reason for more con fidence, and the supply of money in in the country is no greater than in December. Although the cotton crop of the country is only 7,000,000 bales, the cotton transactions of the New York Exchange cover 40,000,000 bales, and the oil exchange transactions cover 2.000,000,000 barrels, although the actual product is only about 20,000,- 000 barrels. J. O. Wynn, of the State Alliat ce Exchange, says there was as much jute used this season as cotton bagging. Not more than 25 per cent, of the Georgia crop was covered with export sugar bags, and other substitutes, while the remaining half was equally divided between jute and cotton bagging. Capt. Wynn says, however, that the princi pal covering next season will be cotton ton bagging straight. Sam Jones retains his true grit, lie was attacked by the mayor of Pales tine, Texas, with a cane last Tuesday, when he wreuched the mayor's cane from him and walloped him with it until, it is said, his face looked like a piece of raw beef. Sam then remark ed, “I always did despise a coward,” and turned around and sent this tele gram to Georgia : “The one gallus mayor of Palestine tried to cane your Uncle Jones this morning at the depot. I wrenched the cane from him and wore him out. lam a little disfigured but still in the ring. I criticised his official career last November. It need ed criticising.” It is said that the alliance leaders of Kansas are already beginning to talk of Senator-elect Pfeffer as the alliance or third party candidate for president in 1892. They say that such a thing is not at all out of the question, and in support ef their claim give tho fol lowing: “Kansas is going to be the leader of the alliance movement. The election of a United States Senator and j five Congressmen before the party is a year old is a greater victory than was ever achieved by a new party in any Stale. It puts Kansas in the front in this great move- ! meut, and this State may be called upon to furnish the presidential'candi date. If Kansas names the leader in 1892 it is probable that it will be the new Uuited States Senator.” It is amusing to see how some pa pers can change their admirvtion for each other. For instance, the Sparta Ishmaelite formerly had nothing but abuse for the Constitution ; now it is copying from it with editorial eudorse ment. Says the Ishmaelite: “The Atlanta Constitution is right in saying that the next Democratic nominee for the presidency must be a leader who favors financial reform as well as tariff reform, and that no gold bug need ap ply. That is democratic doctrine in warp, woof and filling, and Georgia democrats will back it up in the posi. tion. The time has come when the interests of the people must be made supreme, in the White House and oat of it. What mother has not worried her self sick trying to induce a rebellious offspring to swallow a dose of castor oil ? This will not be necessary in the future. Childreu ciy for Cheatham's Tasteless Castor Oil. It has the same effect as plain castor oil. Trice 25 C«ots. FROM OUR CORRESPONDENTS [Wc are in nowise responsible for lh« views expressed by our Correspondents. We cannot make any allowance forirreg ularityof mails or failing to post letters af ter they are written. To obviate this diffi culty, we would suggest, that correspon dents at a distance write Saturday and mail their communications ns soon thei after as possible. If a letter comes in on time and wc fail to publish, on account ol want of space, it will be published the fol lowing week. Let every.correspondent give us the news iu as condensed form as possi ble, otherwise it will be necessary to elimi nate superfluities. All communications are riving after Wednesday will be too late for publication. Fllppcn. From our silence in the columns of our county weekly, its readers would suppese that we have all “died out,” and that the remains of our community are a pile of rubbish, or that we are a people interested only in our own wel late. In this, however, we are mis judged, for we are anything but dead, and are not only interested in our own immediate neighbors, but the welfare of our entire county, and any move ment introduced to advance her in any way will be pushed forward with as much energy as from her most loyal citizens. To prove this, we now come to add our strength to our county paper, knowing that people abroad judge a community by its publication, as it is supposed to be “vox populi.” Every county can and ought to have a prosperous weekly, but the editor doesn't live who can make a success of one without the the co-operation of the people. We wish you, Messrs, editors, a grand success. Our farmers have started to work in earnest, though the heavy rains have compelled us to lay aside the plow for the present. A number of our substantial planters are building new and neat tenement houses. They know that the beet way to get and keep good tenants is to keep good houses. It always pays in the long run. Our community has had its share of sickness. We have all wrestled with the “grippe,” and, though it threw us, we are about all np now. Mr. Branhau, one of Henry county’s prosperous farmers, has just completed and moved into his new house, just above Mr. Kyle Rowan’s residence. We extend to him a hearty welcome. Judge Glass, father of our popular sheriff, has been seriously ill for sever al weeks, and fears were entertained for his recovery, but from latest re ports he is much better, and we hope will soon t>e shaking hands with his many friends again. Mr. Bob Rowan, our clever black smith, has just completed a neat and cozy cottage between Mr. A. G. Har ris’ residence and the school house. He says ho is settled for life now. We are glad to have him settle permanent ly among us. We heard it stated not long since that more guano is shipped to Flippen than any station betweeu Atlanta and Macon. A number of car loads have already been received and more are coming. Our farmars have been busy for two weeks hauling it away. Mrs Nora Vincent, of Jonesboro, has been spending some time in our midst, giving lessons in art. Quite a number of our young ladies availed themselves of this opportunity to learn to decorate and beautify their homes “at home.” Mrs. Vincent displayed her efficiency as a teacher, and her scholars their talents by the success they attained.

Mr. Editor : —After a long sileuce we are on deck again, though local news is scarce. Farmers are preparii g for another crop. They have commenced to haul their guano preparatory for a larger acreage in cotton. They should raise less cotton and more grain, and it should be the purpose of every one to raise bis own supplies at home. We will not say any more on the subject here, for every farmer knows his duty Mr. J. J. Gossett visited the Gate City ,his week. We have a fine school at this place. We had the pleasure of meeting Jake Dicken iu the Gate City last week. Jake is all O. K.— all wool and a yard wide. Sickuess too numerous to mention at present. The Alliance at this place speak of , putting up an Alliance gin aud saw mill. Tbis is a move in the right di rection. This community needs a debating society. Who will be the first to move ! in the matter ? This will be our last letter from this place, as we go to another field. Will close by wishing The Weekly suc cess. Davy Jones. Jan. 26th.

Catarrh, rheumatism or malaria— Take Hood's Sarsaparilla, 100 Dotes One Dollar. Thoughts For Pencil Pushers. Mr. Editor: —One who writes for j newspfpers should be fully persuaded that he has something to communicate that will interest and instruct a majori ty of your readers. The newspajier man engages in the publication of his paper as a business employment. What ever is written for his paper, that is judiciously calculated to impart infor mation and profitably instruct the rea der is always gladly received. It is a matter quite immaterial with the old, experienced editor as to the measure of personal interest he may have in the subject matter of our various commu ideations. His object and purpose is to make up a good, readable news paper, one that will interest the read era of his paper. There is many a scrawl sent up to the editor for publi cation, that if submitted to his judge ment would never have its littleness ex posed through the coiums of his paper. But it came from an old friend to his paper, and there being no special harm in the scrawl, the generous hearted ed itor handed it to one of the boys at the printer’s case, with a cold endorsement, uttered sorter after this style: “Here Jake, set this up next, if you can make it out. Dainfiuo what it is. Just such encomiums are often passed upon our | labored efforts to write for the news paper. In the first place we don’t knowhow to spell even the simplest words, and as to punctuation we leave that for the printer to arrange. Bless your life, my old friend, if the ] printer was to follow your copy just as you wrote it every one who had time to waste in reading your murdered ( King’s English would laugh at your expense. The editor often times does us a special kindness by having a rub bisli box, that is called the waste bas ket, iu which he gives our communica tion a hurried burial, and the funera] services over those dead papers make no mention of a future resurrection. Now Mr. Editor some body is hit, and Sam Jones says that the dog that hoi lows is the one that is hit. Night Scribbler.

I tell yon the grip is not to be laughed at, for you bet it is bad. More rain, mud and slush—don’t it rain, though < Hicks “gets there” on rain and no Alliance fighter need say the Alliance caused it; Hicks is boss ing this time. Well, fanners have a hard time, any way you can fix it, try ing to hold the world together, for all must admit if it were not for them the whole machine would stop. Isu’t that so ? Yes. Then why fight the farm er, when he is your backbone ? Now lot us come together in friendship, and come together as one common people— merchant, lawyer, doctor and all—and live as one common people in ono com mon country. Now what will you do ; will you work with us, or will you stand off and say to monopoly, “Lay on, McDuff,” and when we, the Alli ance, have whipped the fight, then step out like the old mail did by his wife after she had whipped the bear, and say, “VVe have whipped them.” This fight must be whipped—and we, the Farmer’s Alliance, will whip it. Now let me tell you that we whipped the yankees once ; but they got the world to help them and overpowered us. That is all they did. But I will tell you right here that we, the Farmers’ Alliance, have got the world this time, and they cau’t run over us. So you had better come out on our side, though we won’t beg you. It rains, and it is a hard time for far mer* to work ; but, brethren, when the 1 <ime comes, plaut corn until you thiuk you have enough, then plant corn again, peas and potatoes. Sow turnips, and if we should live to see another fall, let us start in October and sow wheat, oats, rye and barley, aul have our own smoke house and granery at , home.

J Ah, my brothers, upon what do you found your helief that your last day i« so far off? Is it upon your youth? “Yes,” you reply, “I am only twenty, only thirty years old.” All, you are entirely mistaken; it is not you who are twenty years old, but it is death, who, in the eternal race, has gained al ready twenty or thirty years on you, thiriy years of grace that God has giv en you to live, which you owe him, and which brings you so much nearer to the term where time ends and the cy cles of eternityibegin. Behold, eternity has already stamp ed upon your brow the fatal mement that it will begin for you. Ah, do you know what eternity is ? In the silence of the tomb it is a clock whose pendu lum dismally ticks only these two fear ful words : Forever I everlasting! Ev erlasting!. forever ! And during these frightful revolutions a lost spirit cries out: “What is the hour ?” and the voice of another reprobate breaks forth ii]K>n the eternal silence and replies in soul-chilling accents: “Eternity!” Damage Suit*. Several of Henry county’s citizens ! have entered damage suits against the j Central road, as the result of : njuries i received in the recent collision. In ! the list reported by the Constitution I we find the following: “Mr. George A.
