- ** TUEJtJS TO UK A COTTON-PLART- IXO ARISTOCRACYt Tbe small farmer— whownsto tt* dimjatera of tbe Sooth, Bod out Ui« but teatigo of the planting ang- tocracy, betneen 'which ami the people there wao always a lack of sympathy, by keeping bis own awes under bfa o*n supervision, and nsing hired labor oqly aa a supplement to his own—is still held to be the typiool cotton raiser. But the observer who cares to look be neath the surface will doteot signs of s reverso current He will discover : that there is beyond question a sue though gradual rebunohing of dm small forma Jntd large estates, ana a tendency toward the re-establishment of a land-holding oligarchy. Here and there through all the Ootton States, and almost in every wm^y* reappearing the planter princes of the old time, still lords of •oree, though not of slaves. There is in Mississippi one planter who raises annn- oily 12,000 balos of cotton on twelve consolidated plantations, aggregating, perhaps, 60,000 acres. The Oapehoart estate, on Albemarle sound, originally of several thousand acres, hod 662,000 worth of land added last year. In the Mississippi valley, where, more than anywhore else, is preserved tho diatiuct- ive cotton plants t „u, this reabsorbing of separate farms into one ownership is go ing on rapidly. Mr. F. C. Morehoad, au authority on these lauds, says that not ono-tliird of them are owned by the men who held them at the close of tho war, and they aro passing, ono nfter tho other, into the hands of tho commission merchants. It is doubtfpl if there is a neighborhood bi all the South in which casual inquiry will not bring to tho front from ten to a dozen mon who hnvo added farm after farm to their posses sions for tho past several years, and now own from six to twenty places. It must not be supposed that these forms are bunched together and run after the old plantation style. On the oontrary, they ere cut into even smaller farms, and rented to small croppers. The question involved is not wliother or not the old plantation methods will bo revived. It is the mnoh more serious problem as to whether the land divided forovor into email farms shall be owned by the many or by the few, whether we shall have in the South a peasantry like that o France, or a tenantry like thatof Ire- land.—JSTcniy W.

Finding them all in place; he stretched himself to his utmost height two or three times to seo if his legs were in working ordor, and then hopped a hop or two to make assuranoo sure. Being satisfied that he was all there; ho gave a croak of relief and lumped under the tomato vines. Ma.jBilftAlJKR. w. T. GLOVER & CO -9* m a%7*%-r .1 i J^e * *! J- *t*i (SUCCESSORS TO W. I.
