On last Friday Major R M Bullock had a fine mule to gT drowned in the ford of South rivK just below his honto—is- Dick, and two negroes, started to cross the river with two multo hitched to a wagon. The recent rains had swollen the stream con siderably, but the waters had sub sided and not apprehending any danger they drove in .The rains had washed the ford away, so that it was over the mules head. Before they could get them loose one of them drowned, and the other would have met the same fate had it not been for the prompt and he foie work of young Bullock. The ford is now past crossing and the road commissioners are hav ing it fixed, hut since it has begun to wash out this way, it will have to be bridged to make it safe, and we understand that Ordinary Dan iel will have one built soon.

The cotton Sis want to get closer to the k**Brcfeterial, and the south being ■If only section raising cotton, ■New Englanders are naturally * Bing this way. It is conceded by I'Kn that the South offers better pMpeemsnts and that they can ■nufactura goods cheaper here Kn they can north. That this Brue, is proven by the fact that Hb of the largest, cotton nulls of ■w England have determined to Bag their plants south.

Broad river and its southern prong are lined with shoals and many of them are close to stations bn the Seaboard Air Line. People of Madison county, who own these magnificent water pow ers, wake up and let the world know what your advantages are, and it will not be a great while before the hum of thousands of spindles and looms will be heard in yeur county, causing property to great increase in value. A CON si R\hA TIVE FORECAST Among the many forecast of 1895 and attempts to prophesy what the year holds in store for this country, we have seen few so sensi ble and conservative as that of The Forum for January. It does not make unseemly boasts, but yet declares that nothing but _our own folly need lead us to distrust the future. It concludes with the sage observation that we need not imagne that we are not amendable to the laws of finance and com merce that govern the rest of the civilized world. We quote the fol lowing extract: It is useless as it ss unnecessary and indeed impossble to foroast the future. Trade regulates itself. What we need at the persent is not speculation on the future of commerce, so much as determina tion to look our problems square ly in the face as they arise, and to maintain our credit at all hazards. The condition olhthe United States Treasury 2 mouthlvago was enough to ma?Sr thk> patriotic American blush. We need reform of course —and the prospect now seems brighter-—but we need also a set of Congressmen who would appreciate the argument that the credit of the United States, strong as it is, re quires proper legislation before it become practically available. We should never forget that sentiment and fact are so intertwined in the fabric of public and mercantile credit as to make the drawing of a dividing line imposible. If we would have full confidence, both el ements must be considered. While the depression of 1894, following the panic of 1898, has proved a bitter experience for the commercial interests of the United States, nothing but our own folly need lead us to distrust the future. The problems before us are not to be lightly regarded. They de mand eareful, economic thought and good fiaancial judgment. Nor peed we expect at once a revival of the volume of trade and prosper ity of former years. Above all w# must as a people forever abandon the delusion th’t natures generosity to us aod our own supposed supe riority have placed us above the financial and commercial laws which govern the rest of the civ— liized world. • SOME RESOLUTIONS. The Kx|< u*e Account Greater Tlinn the Income—l K inetly .mi sheeted. Passed nuanimonsly by the house of represen rati vos: Recognising and deploring tho de pressed condition of agriculture in this state, and desirous of allevmtiug the same, we offer the following remeily as the souse of this committee: We will waste no time m discussing the cause. Tne disease is upou us, be ing felt in every farmhouse iu (teorgia, soon to reach tue center of "every town. Our espouse account has beeu greater than our iucoine. We must cut down expenses or inerea.se the revenue, or meet bankruptcy surely and swiftly. Looking to cotton as our source of rev enue, it is impossible to increase the in come by increased production, wheu a less than a small find sow mi good land, witna Siewrfr pasturing the" same or Qffcuttujg hay aftdr removing grain. Then p:yp!lro three fourths of your laud for Corn, gronudpeas end flekfpeas; keep ooiidu- Seed and manure*emu; It wilt not pay to sell them at present prices. Plant vegetables, sugarcane, potatoes, eto. Do not plant over 10 acres of cotton to the plow. Do not nse any commercial fertilizers; clean out the fence corners; haul litter iu cow lots and horse lots, etc. We have used 80 >,OOO. tons of guano this year, costing about $0,000,000, taking one-third of the cotton crop of the state to pay for it. We recognize that It will increase the crop, but abundance now means poverty to the producer. Why, we can’t understand, we simply deal with facts. At a fixed price of 8 cents we would advise the use of guano, but when increased production reduces the price to 5 cents, then it ia suicidal to nse it. It all cotton grow* ing states would nuite with us (and w# hereby implore them) and refuse to us® guano next year, we would reduce the crop in our judgment from 9,000,000 to 6,000,000 bales, and obtain more for A,- 000,000 than for 0,000,000 bales, besides saving the guano bill. It is not profit able to buy guano and pay for it with 6 cent cotton oven with a good cropt with a poor crop it would simply mean destruction. Buy no wagons, no bug gies, no mules, nor horses unless you ate out of debt and can pay cash; Boono* mi 7.0 in every way. The above plan will bring more hogs, more beef, more milk and butter, more chickens and eggs, more colts; would require less labor, less expense, less anx iety, lpss risk. It will bring more money, pay back debts, bring peace, prosperity and independence to the farmers of Georgia and the south. We would ask our fellow citizens of ©very calling to aid us in our honest efforts for relief. We would ask mer chants and bankers to be as lenient as possible. The cotton has come and gone, the bales were there, but the price was lacking, though through no fault of morchaut or farmer, we therefore would counsel forbearance from cred itor to debtor, for the farmers of Geor gia are an honest, debt-paying pouffe, and while many are now unable to pay, it is not due to a lack of disposi tion. We would ask our towns people to buy all their supplies possible from their customers. In mauy sections we have bread, meat, beef, lard, corn, hay and provisions of all kinds—enough for country and town—and we would ask onr merchants to encourage farmers to produce these things by buying from them instead of importing tho same. In other words let our people have among thomselvos as much as possible. We have made the money, but sent it away from home, never to return, until we change our methods. Ou this line we would say that our cotton should bo spun at home; our wagons made, buggies, shoes, furniture, et§, so that money produced in Georgia would stay iu Georgia. We would also advocate any policy on the part of our state that would lend to tlio upbuilding and support of factories of all kinds in our midst. Their employes would furnish consumers of our products and add valne to every acre of farm linpl ill Georgia. We believe that packing houses established in our largest cities would pay. Lot them be established and we will furnish the beef and pork. By following the above suggestions we believe that we can escape from the slough of despond and the clutches of poverty, and ere. long stand upon the high ground of contentment and pros- Our country is peculiarly adapted to diversified agriculture, unexcelled in the variety of its products, or the perfec tion of their growth. We have water power* and raw materials. Oar dimate invite* all who would 4 > ftdd or factory work. The opportunities are with u, nd it is with us a* to whether wo use them or not. We think we are on the riaht direction with our technological itchools, our common school® and col leges. Onr town* will yet hum with machinery uhder the direction of our own boys, and the earth will yield forth its more abundant fruit to the more eo* lighter .ed touch of the husbandman. We have an abiding faith in the possibilities and the future develop ment of our country. We wonld hasten the day when contentment would pre vail in the heart* and prosperity would reign iu the home* of our people. Let ns, therefore, to the work like men, be lieving in the resource* at our command aud an abiding faith in the wisdom and justice of au all wise God. In order to carry those idea* into ex ecution and have them dissimulated among the peopie, wo ask every paper, daily and weekly in the south, to pub lish them, and request that some patri otic citizen wonld call a mas* meeting at every county seat, regardless of party #r color, aud advocate the princi ples heroin set forth. Property owners along Broad river who own good manufacture ing site®, should get in th® mar? ket with their land®. Now i® your opportunity. EDW.
