The railroads will give half rates, and if anyone desires to go they should confer with R J Guinn, president of the Association before starting. If the Democrat* of the 10th district, want to send a genuine, dyed-in-the-wool, intelligent, well posted, silver demoorat, to con gress to succeed Major Black, we would suggest that they insist on editor Sidney Lewis, of the Sparta Ishmaelite, accepting the nomine- 1 tion. Asa silver advocate he outshines Watson, the populist at-' tornev, nnd as nu old time south era democrat, without a hobby, he stands away up head. If we 1 were in the 10th we would favor 1 editor Lewis, for with him and his rword the democrats could easily win.

A. WBHK OP AT congress, that he was friendly to to the white metal. The cold wave that passed over the country this week, did much damage in the western Btates. In some of the western states the reports given out is that about, all the fruit and grapes are gone, and some of the trees are dead, and they have grave apprehensions of the wheat. Snow is reported in Michigan 12 inches deep on a lev el with light snows in several states. The frost here was not heavy enough to injure vegetation much, and the weather man in forms us that the weather will be warm from now on. Let’s hope that he is oorrect. Gov. John Gary Evans of South Carolina, has issued a fiery ad dress to the peopls of his state. Th# address deals, in the main, with the recent decision of Judge Golf, in which the registration laws of South Carolina are done away with. In the course of the ad dress, he deneunoes Judge Goff and his associate Judge Bimonsto i, in ths most bitter terms, and calls on the people of South Carolina to rally around the white flag. He says further “that the world must le shown that we are capable of governing ourselves, and that con stitution or no constitution, law or no law, court or no court, the in telligent white people of South Carolina intend to govern her.” The issue seems to be coming be-' tween state sovereignty and the U. S. courts and its hard to tell where it. will end. Hon. A S Olay, chairman of the the State Democratic Executive committee ia out in an interview in which there can_t>e no mistake aa to hia position on the money question. He told the people last year during the campaigu his posi tion. aud now reiterates what he then said in stronger terms, if pos sible, that he is for free coinage of silver at the present ratio. The democratic party of Georgia ia be hind its brainy young chairman, aud the gold bugs must take a back scat.

Mr. Roberts iost 11; Mr. Freeman lost four, Mr. Barnes lost seven, Mr. Field lost 12; and many others iost. varying in numbers by the size of the herds. The characteristic symptoms of the disease are loss of appetite, standing (sometimes with the back arched, the coat looks rough and strong, bowels may be constipated, or the opposite, very loose, the discharges sometimes Covered with mucous and attain streak ed with blood; the emissions of nriue at times will be red colored or coffee colored; the pulse is quick and wiry with high temperature, a good deal of nervous twiiclrng in some cases. The treatment should be—Change the animals at once to another lot; give a complete change in feed; open the bowels with a quart of lard mixed with one or two ounces of spirits turpentine; give ail tne stock a tublospoonful hypo phosphite of soda in feed morning and , eveuing as an antiseptic measnrerone onnoe chlorate of potash in a quart of water every four hours; drench in quart of water; give alternately with the potash every four hours a table spoonful of sulphate of iron and pow dered gentian. Support the animal’s strength with flaxseed meal and half a dozen raw eggs every day, pure water and anything the animal will eat. This disease has been very fatal to successful raising of cattle in Georgia for many years, particularly the last two years. That it is due to a baccilli there is little if any doubt. It certain ly demands, iu the interest of all, that a eareiul investigation should be mada and the true cause located. Respectfully, J. N Cook, Veterinary Surgeon. KKDCOING THE COTTON ACREAGE.

Question 5. —Pioase give me a good fertilizer for grottndpeas. I wish tc make tte be-t crop ot which the land is capable. What proporiou of oil do the gronndpeas contain, and are there any accessible mills? Answer s. —Acid phosphate, 1,000 pounds. Muriate potash, 300 pounds. Nitrate soda, 800 pounds. Sulphate of lime, 500 pounds. Thero is 38 per cent of oil in ground peas. As far as we can ascertain there are only two mills iu this country, one in St. t-ouis and the other in New York. Owing to the fact that other oils are now oheaper, this industry has been almost abandoned. During the war. when we were cut off from other supplies, there were a good many of these mills in the south. Its uses are the same as cottonseed oil, and the cake is also used lor stock feed. The Spanish groutnlpeas can bo planted after the small grain crops are taken off, and will mature fully before frost. - WARNING. are hereby warned not £b hire or harbor in any- man ner, one Will Sorrells, a mulatto about 6ft. 8 in. high.
