McDonough. Ga., March 13, 1891.
Col. John C. Rutherford, of Macon,
the great lawyer who so faithfully de
fended Tom Woolfolk, died suddenly
in Florida a few days ago.
The latest reports are that Northen-
Livingston hostilities have been suspen
ded, while negotiations are being made
by friends for complete reconciliation*
This will be good news to ail friends
of the order.
Col. Thomas Hardeman died at his
home in Macon la3t Friday, from pa
ralysis of the respiratory oigaus. Col.
Hardeman was one of Georgia’s noblest
sons, auu will be mourned by the en
tire State.
A preparatory department of the
Georgia School of Technology will be
opened on the 1 Gth instant. A pplicants
must be 16 yeats old and will be ad*
mitted without examination. As coun
ties not now represented in the school
will be given the preference, we hope
some of the boys of Henry will take
advantage of this opportunity to obtain
free a good education and at the same
time learn a trade. For particulars
write to Dr. I. S. Hopkins, president,
Atlanta.
The stubborn and aggravating dead
lock in the Illinois legislature was bro
ken Wednesday, and the brave and loy
al Democrats of that body will receive
the gratitude of their party throughout
the Union. Moore and Cockrell, the
two Farmers’ Mutual Beneficial Asso
ciation- men, finally joined the Demo
crats and brought about the result.
Taubeneck, the other member of that
order, voted for his candidate to the
last. The closing scenes were accom
panied with the wildest demonstrations
of enthusiasm.
The next meeting of tho Georgia
Teachers’ Association will be held at
Brunswick from April 28th to May Ist.
All railroads will give one fare for the
round trip. The hotels will give re
duced rates and all lady delegates will be
entertained free of charge if they send
their address to Mr. W. F. Penuiman,
chairman of the reception committee.
An educational exhibit will be held,
and all schools are invited to contribute.
Brunswick will entertain the teachers
royally, as her hospitality is famous.
They will give the visitors boat excur
sions, oyster roasts, clam bakes, etc.
All teachers who desire to attend will
be furnished full information by Prof.

The Floods uml Effects.
The daily papers have been filled
this week with reports from the floods
in every direction. While not so dam
aging as some former visitations, they
are general and wide-spread.
In our immediate section the waters
have interfered considerably with trav
el and the transportation of mails. A
washout occurred on the East Tenues
see road above Atlanta, and from Ju
liette to Macon the track in places was
covered so deep with water as to en
tirely prevent the passage of trains for
two or three days. The only commu
nication had up to Wednesday was bv
means of a train from Atlanta down to
the overflowing waters and return.
It is said to be decidedly the worst
season known in forty years, and that
crops have not been so backward in
that length of time. The backward
ness is not confined to any section of
the State, but it seems that north Geor
gia is not so well off as south Georgia
in that respect.
From all the information gathered
the conclusion is that the cotton crop
of 1881 will fall back to the figures
of 1889, and if the present weather con
tinues, it may fall even lower.
The consolation of shorter crops is
higher prices; then better figures may
prevail next winter than have been
paid this year.

!FROM OUR CORRESPONDENTS.
SNAPPING SHOALS.
That frazzled-out subject, the weath
er, is now almost the sole topic of con
versation. And truly, it has become
monotonous to a degree. We can al
most tell what were Noah’s feelings
during the forty days shower that is
said on Biblical authority to have vis
ited the world in his day.
Jesting aside, however, the matter is
beginning to become serious. Prepa
rations for the new crop are practically
i nil ; and if tho reign of Jupiter Plu-
I vius docs not soon cease, it does not
need the spirit of prophecy to forecast
| a very short crop for 1891. But your
sci il>e is of the opinion that the peo
ple are worse frightened than injured ;
for by force of circumstances it once
happened that on the first of March
he had not run a furrow towards any
preparation for the ensuing crop, and
yet he that year, 1873, made a fine
crop—in fact, the best lie ever made.
Still, if it were practicable, he would
not advise any one to delay beginning
farming operations until that time, as
he is of the opinion, though he does
not claim to be a champion farmer, that
early and complete preparation is a
potent factor in deciding whether the
credit or debit side of the farmer’s an
nual ballance sheet shall predominate.
In the light of experience and common
sense he would always advise as early
and thorough preparation as circum
stances will permit, taking his chance
with the balance of his co-laborers that
the early and latter rain will, by a Di
vine Providence, be so distributed as
to secure the greatest good to the great
est number.
Much to the disgust of the purties
who have proposed to get up a corner
by witholding their cotton from the
market, the price of the fleecy staple
still rules low and languid. The pe
riod is rapidly approaching, when most
of those who have been holding, for an
advance, will be compelled to turn
loose whether the prices are satisfac
tory or not. This fact recalls the
question whether it is not better, one
year with another, to get cotton out as
rapidly as possible, and market it at
once, regardless of prices and proba
bilities. Some who have made the ex
periment, and others who have clearly
observed the course of the markets for
a number of years, claim that this plan
is productive of the best results. They
claim that the difference in tho weight
of early and late picked cotton will, in
most instances, produce a balance for
the farmer on the right side of the
ledger. But theorizing is little apt to
influence the decision of the farmer
who, having made a crop of cotton at a
cost of nine cents per pound, feels
that to sell it at less than that will be
sure to put him out of pocket, and
that the chapter of accidents may pro
duce a favorable change. Hence, all
the teachings of wisdom and experience
to the contrary notwithstanding, he
cannot make up his mind to “let ’er
slide.”
But little of general interest has
transpired during the past week. That
pest, the grippe, appears to have about
run its course, and the people no long
er go about sneezing their toe nails
loose.
Ihe matrimonial excitement has
measurably subsided, as we have not
had a wedding during tho past week,
which makes us feel that there is some
thing amiss; as they have happened
with such unfailing regularity hereto
ore - Claudius.
Superfluity of Advice.
It is amusing, if not funny, to read
all that is addressed to the farmer in
the way of advice. It conies from all
directions, sources and ranks—from
country pedagogues and political dem
agogues, and many others, who are
wonderfully considerate of the farmers
interests—in fact, there sympathy is
superabundant and inexhaustable.
“Speak not in the ears of a fool, for he
w ill despise the wisdom of thy words.”
Whether it is through obstinacy or ig
norance that the farmer pays so little
attention to this ever prevailing com
modity, t>r whether it is because of the
cheapness of it, we are not able to say.
We think, however, that the farmer "is
less chargeable with idiocy and asinin
ity than many of the monkey-headed
asses who set themselves up as dicta
tors to men that have more experience,
wider observation, and perhaps three
times the intelligence they themselves
have.
There is no doubt about the farmer
needing relief, lie needs it in more
ways than one. He needs relief from
this continual pouring in of advice, and
we could advise him how to get it, hut
tlia, is what we are talking about and
we know lie does not want any more.
If the farmer does not escape all the
dangers that beset his pathway, and is
not relieved of all his oppressions, it
will not be because he has not been
faithfully warned and advised. It is
evident beyond questioning that advice
is not so repulsive to any one as to the
farmer, for none have been so faithful
in repudiating it; especially that which
is good. And now we would say to
those who have been giving good coun
sel that they had as well hold up, or
hold in. and give the poor, burdened
farmer a rest. Hut to those asses
mentioned above its no use to say any
thing, for they know a thing or two
themselves, and will continue their
striving to attain higher degrees in ass
hood, and might as well attain it oue
way as another. The reflection,
“What an ass am I,” does uot satisfy
their ambition. So just let them go it
—we all need diversion, and one of
the diversions of sensible men is to
laugh at the ignorance of others. S.

Ttisitglits on the Situation.
It has been a long time since I push
ed my pen to scribble anything for
your paper. I thought I would recover
from the effects of the grasp that
la grippe had wounded we with, so that
I could tell you of my release from
confinement. The monster has had me
at his will for about three months, and
for the last fifteen days he has sorely
afflicted me; and this foggy morning,
muffled up and sitting by the fire, I
could not refrain from telling you of it.
I do wish the sun would shine out
warm, and perhaps Mrs. S. would per
mit me to stir out a little. I am os
tired, I have such a small space as
prison bounds. But I reckon busi
ness goes on as well without mo as
with me. Windom is dead, Sherman
is dead, and no change in the weather,
sun, moon or stars, or railroads. Per
haps Gould will have a raiiroad sched
ule soon. Sherman made some indel
lible tracks ihrough here 26 years ago.
I see some of them to-day at my house.
Though they are wearing out some, his
iron heel is still, and his torch is (lone
singeing. W e ]|, the past is gone, the
present is with us, the future we must
look to and prepare for. To-morrow
a new Congress will meet —we look to
the future for better laws, for a reduc
tion of taxes, lor more money. Will
it lie that we will realize it. We look
ed for economical laws to be enacted
by our last legislature. We got some
very good, but the tax payers paid
about $4,000 more for it than for the
same period of legislation the year be
fore. We expect betterments. Let us
look in the future to the interest of
soldiers’ widows. See to it that they
get their pension money without pay
ing from 25 to 50 per ct. to get their
claims established, when they can get
their money personally with but little
trouble. Some lawyers are now standing
with glaring eyes and outstretched arms
looking for a case to grab at least 25
per ct. of the widow’s money. I heard
of one case where a lawyer told a wid
ow it would pay her well to give one
half to have her pension collected, that
by not taking the proper steps the mat
ter might be delayed, and she would
piobably never get it. I say turn a
deaf ear, widows, to all that. And, Mr,
Editor, I hope you will keep them pos
ted on the matter until tliev get their
money. Probably some have got it.
The farmers have long faces, almost
iu mask. Corn a dollar a bushel, cot
ton from sto 9c. Well, who caused
it ? Fifty bales to the mule man. For
ty bales to the mule man. Thirty,
twenty, fitteen hales to the mule man.
That is who caused it and what caused
it. Look to the 26th chapter of Pro
verbs, 27th verse, and read the penalty,
“Whoso diggeth a pit shall fall therein,
and he that rolleth a stone, it will re
turn upon him.” There is no perhaps
and maybe about it, it’s positively will
and shall. In 1865-6 cotton brought
S2OO per bale. How came that? Sup
ply aud increased dt mand. There was
more provision in 1865 than there is
to-day. No one “bonded” for his'sup
plies that year. It was help one an
other. My book shows that 1 killed
18 hogs in the winter of ’64 and ’65,
just after Sherman made those tracks
and before peace was made, that
weighed 3,700 pounds. Jus: as soon
as ’66 came in there was a rush for
cotton. Just then the idiotic farmers
eu mass began digging pits and rolling
stones, and thousands of thousands of
poor, degraded, unprotected and scorn
ed farmers and laboring men Lave
fallen in and are loaded down so heav-
ly that there is no more use for mouii
tains and rocks to fall upon to hide
them from the face of monopoly and
other innumerable oppressions. Come,
alliancetnen, let us come together.
Come in, you laboring tnen ; come in,
you cotton producers of the South, let
us hear your purposes of relief for the
masses. Solomon says, “without coun
sel purposes are disappointed, but in
the multitude of counsellors they are
established.” Our purpose of relief is,
plant more corn, wheat, oats, potatoes,
field and groundpeas, sorghum and su
gar cane ; raise cows, horses and mules,
hogs for yourself and to sell; have
butter to sell instead of buy; In short,
raise something to sell of all kinds of
picduce. it would be better to have
something of all to sell at a low price
than to have all to buy at a high price.
Another purpose of relief is, plant less
cotton. But oh! my, how can 1 ? says
everybody. 1 got so little for my crop
of last year that 1 lacked 20 bales to
come out. lam compelled to plaut
more this year. Well, you see that the
purpose of planting less cotton, when
it is the determined purpose to plant
more, is hard to overcome. But let
me ask you how many bales you made
last year ? You say you made 60
bales. Well, don’t you know how you
can get 20c for your crop of 1891 ? I :
can tell you. Just make 30 bales.
That at 20c would be $3,000. At 8c
your 60 bales would be $2,400. Reduce
yout cotton crop one half, and the
above result is certain. The above
calculation shaws that you have S6OO
more for your 30 boles than for your
60, wluch goes to make up for your
deficit of 30 bales. Every farmer "from
two bales up to hundreds can obtain
the same result. Room for no more.

Save Money And Suffering. •
One feature of the thousands of testi
monials that have been given iu behalf

disease in theusuil way. A knowl
edge of the virtut s of Swift’s Specific
