Since my lost letter to you I have traveled over a large portion of south west Georgia and urn prepared to give you u correct report of the orops In this part of tho state from my own observation and Information obtained from reliable farmers. In the first place, there will ibe more than an av erage crop of corn made—more than enough to answer the demands of the country for the next year. Beside, tho Incoming cropa there Is a great deal of old corn still on hand. The early corn la already mode, while the later planting promises a more abun dant yield than that planted In tho earllsr part of the season. The farm ers now need a little dry weather to kill crass and pull fodder. I saw acres of oorn, both la Terrell and Randolph counties that will certainly yield from twenty to fifty bushels, and The yield would have been much greater for the drougl’b In May und June. 1 surveyed a field of 100 acres of corn that will certainly yield from 1,600 to 2,000 bush els. As regards the cotton crops i can only say 'Mat It la par excellent. I saw one plantation containing 200 acres of cotton, In Terrell county, that will make a bale to the acre, so I was In formed by the proprietor of the farm. At the request of 'the gentleman own ing this plantation 1 will withhold his name. The plantation adjoining this one will yield equally as welt. Sh'ould no disaster beta! this crop It will be the largest one That Iras been made for the past 'ten years. Should the ralne continue as they have for the . past three weeks the cotton fields may be come flooded, cotton may lose its fo liage and havo the appearance of be ing dead, but a few days of warm sun shine on it will cause It to leaf out again. Up to tho present writing, how ever, I don't believe cotton ha» been damaged to any extent. The sugar cane, peas and sweet pota to crops ore all growing finely and promises abundant yields. Fat mules, horses, hogs and cowa are to be seen on all plantations. This ptate of affairs Is not confined to the large planters, but those who do not farm an extensive scale are equally found a number of amatl farms to my (ravels belonging t0 cotored peapletoat have (too crope on Mem.

Bacon will address the citizens of Han cock at Sparta on Monday. If he t.peaks on the line of his Foreyth speech thoee who hear him will be delighted. MaJ Bacon speaks like a full, mature man and not like so msny others we bear. One recognizes at once a statesman, a man of thought who has a message to deliver to the people. He shows the er ror of following Hines and Whtiton In dividing our people. We have all to lese and nothing to gain by division and separation. Henry G. Turner Is well spoken of here and people say that they want him returned to the house, where he Is so valuable. Bacon Is Dreferred to WalBh beoause Bacon Is better equipped for the duties of n United State* senator. He la equipped fbr all phases of debate anil Is at home upon great legal questions where Mr. Walsh would be at sea. Then, In addition, he Is regarded as such a master of parliamentary science, second to none on the continent. Taken all together, ns a lawyer, as a logician, ns an orator, as a statesman, os a parlia mentarian. he Is the best equipped of any candidate for the responsible du ties of a senator. He has a targe ac quaintance with publi'. affairs, having been oalled for several times by the na tional Democratic committee to aid them to conducting our national cam paigns. / DOUGLAS DOTS.
