The Crop*.
The cottou crop i by no means a failure,
but it will fall fa f short of what might
reasonable have be *n expected from ap
jK'arances curlier iu the season. The fault
is not with the pi. inters for they worked
faithf lly to the er and. It is not attribnta
.ble to the s'il, for we have as flue a cot
ton producing sect |on as there is in the
State. Then the oiixfortuue, if short cot
ton crops are a misfortune, is attribu
table to tlie season*. The coutiuiied ruius
in the later Spring and the early Summer
kept the plant full of sap. Then the sud
den end continued drought with uupre
.'edenti-d hot woollier fired the plant and
iu ufc*<t ptael's out iff the top crop entire
ly, but the bottom pud middle crop will
Im3 atwive average. We feel safe iu saying
that eight tliousnml lings will be sliiped
from this county, independent of cottou
purchased from the adjoining counties iu
this State and Florida.
Cotton is coming iu rapidly for the sea
son, although prices are not very encour
aging, Wo ai e glad ho Never, that the en
tire crop will not be exhausted in jurying
for fertilizers, and the provisions used
while making it. We hope that planters
will learn that it is possible for the supply
of rot,ton to exceed the demand, and that
vrlioii tlie supply is greater than the de
mand that the price ill depreciate. And,
indeed, wo hope they have learned it al
ready. And the conveniences of having
their corn siwl meat at home, this year we
hope will prove a salntuity lesson that will
not be forgotten or abandoned by a ficti
tious rise iu the cotton market.

Energy, perseverance and sobriety, with
laudable aspirations characterizing n young
man, should always be encouraged in
every community. Nothing so energises
it young man as the fact known to liimself,
that honesty, morality, perseverance and
sobriety, will be appreciated and rewarded
with the encouragement and patronage
of the petiole with whom he lives and by
whom he is surrounded. Now we present
to otlr readers a young man possessed of
each slid all of these characteristics; and
these facts are feno .vn to all the people of
this section of couutry. Though quite a
young rmflT he has passed through all the
stages of a mercantile apprenticeship, from
dusting'thb Shelve# to the book keeper of
one of the most extensive mercantile es
tablishments in onr place.
Our readers iirßrooks county and tlie
adjoining counties of Florida, after read
ing the above will readily conclude that
Bichard M. McCall is the young man to
whom we refer, and we now present him
to them as the yoiihg man possessed of all
the characteristics, and wanting in none
of the elements that constitutes a safe and
reliable tradesman, as a Btfrfleffged mer
chant in our town with an elegant and
well assorted stock of merchandise. By
reference to his advertisement in another
column yon will learn everything in refer
ence to his locality and his stock of goods.
We hope the many friends of tins" young
man will give him a call and at least share
their patronage with him.

After returning from Savnmmh last
week we were very unwell and was not
able to call uttentieu to the new adver

an intentional slight, but because we had
neither time nor space.
We now enll special attention to the
advertisement of

This firm is too well known in this coun
try to require au editorial recommenda
tion. They are men of ample means and
possessed of the highest order of business

The name of Roberts in Southern Geor

of Savannah, is familiarly known to every
body, and from the long ago not a word
of com paint comes up. The business is
continued and tlie high reputation is still
maintained, in name and honor. Not a man
iu Savannah is more worthy of the eoufi
deuce and patronage of the people of
Georgia than Dwight L. Roberts, whose
advertisement may be seen iu our adver
tising columns.

We call special attention to the adver
tisement of Mr. M. T. Quinan. Scarcely
a man in Georgia is better known to the
soldier boys than Mike Quinan, and we
don’t think any, more universally beliked.
He is a genial fellow and has a way of
mixing things eo as to make every body
else feel genial. We do not advocate the
use of strong drink, bnt we do know that
men will drink and we think it a religious
dnty to save the people from as much of
the evil consequences as possible, and to
all who do and will drink, we suggest to
you immediately on arriving in Savannah
to ascertain where Mike's head quarters
are and make his acquaintance and you
will have no disposition to test the filthy
compounds prepared at less creditable es
tablishments. He keeps the best articles
and knows exactly how to improve them
by compounding them. We hope that
onr people to avoid great evils will call od
Mike. His advertisement will tell you
just wuere to finil him.

Silt—l am a render of your paper, the
INlMilTNlu nt; I read in last week’s issue
' the account given of the Ufiioil lfiouic,
which took jiiuee at tlio Bluo Sprlug, in
this county oil the 18th hist.
Sir ! I agree with you when you say that
the pcnjdc would not mix any more than
oil mid water. I think any other name
would suit better than that of the Union
Picnic.
There is getting to be so much haughty
1 pride iu this, ouj day of poor folks uristoe
rarty, that there is but very little enjoy
! incut at such a place. Those from the
different villages did not seem to mingle
much together, and therefore it could not
lie expected for them to associate with
country green horns, like myself and some
others, but be it ns it may, I fared sump
tuously. I puiposeil at dinner time to
spread niv cloth with sonic to eat anil lie
neighborly, and asked why did not all eat
from the same table and be social and
friendly ns people should be on such an
occasion, and the day devoted to eaeli
other in amusement and pleasant games
adopted to such occasions. If such hud
been tin- ease the iluy would have been
more pleasantly nml ngreeubly spent.—
Thanks be to goodness I had a well filled
basket supplied from my country home,
and shaved with a good many that would
have missed their dinner, perhaps.
While in walking round that day, ns
others did, I would occasionally meet with
people that I had met before and would
have spoken to, but. they would turn their
heads so fur the other way before I could
speak that we would puss ns strangers
without recognizing each other. I enjoy
ed it findly and when the next Union
Picnic Domes round I will certainly attend.
Major Gallnher ! I only write to give my
views upon the subject. You are entirely
unknown to me; we lmvo no personal ac
quaintance whatever, lint ns nn editor, I
address this note te yon, endorsing all yon
said. Very Respectfully,
Minnie Ray.
We thank you Minnie, for sustaining ns
when we do right and tell the truth. We
know and can assert it upon the authority
of Minnie Buy, that the country people,
who are the proud equals of any village
swells, were ready and willing to be courte
ous, genial and kind, and were more than
willing to generously divide the contents
of their well filled baskets from their coun
try homes. But they like you Minnie,
lmd too much self-respect to run after
those that turned their little empty heads
as yon passed them; perhaps, Minnie, the
emptiness of their heads was the canse of
their going home with an emptiness some
where else, and if so, Minnie, you and this
editor will rejoice that they were overta
ken by a just retribution. If not sooner,
Minnie, I hope to meet yon at the next
picnic and eat with you from another well
filled basket from your country home.

advised me to buy the Magic Arnica Lini

in patent nostrums. I told you of a hurt
I received eleven years since'that had not
been relieved hut was increasing with age. j
You fhen presented me with a bottle of;
this liniment. I took it through conrtosy i
to you. A week after I got home I ooii- !
eluded to use it. I applied it twice each
day for two weeks. Since that time I
have felt no pain, hut feel as well as I did
twenty years ago. Tho bottle of liniment
has been worth more to me than the bottle
filled with gold would have been. I re
commend the liniment to all who I find
suffering with pain from strains, bruises,

Hhiiievkport, September I.—Major A.
F. Stephens, of DeSoto I’ariah, who ar
rived here to-day, furnishes the following
account of tlie uonebatta troubles, which
is no doubt substantially correct:
It seems that in the Bed River Parishes,
where tlie negroes are largely iu excess of
the whites, much apprehension and alarm
have been felt by the latter on account of
a threatened outbreak of the negroes, in
stigated, as waH generally believed, by
Eilgurtmvn, DeWees, Tritchell, Howell,
Wells, Holland, and others. Tlie lives of
several respectable white residents of the
parish had been threatened by the ne
groes, and a few days ago Mr. Williams,
a respectable citizen of the Third Ward
of the ltud River Parish, was threatened
with assassiliution by two notorious and ,
desperate negroes near Brownsville, in j
the lower edge of the Parish, ho having
been fired at by them with double-buirel
shot-guns. Last Thursday he led a small
party of white men to the cabins of these
negroes, with a view of arresting and
lodging them in jail, when they were fired
on from a cabin, and one of tlie party
instantly killed. The negroes then at
teropteij.to roo to the woods, when they
were both shot and killed by the party
attempting to make the arrests.
Tlie next day (Friday) a large body of i
armed negroes, between three and four
hundred in number, assembled near
Brownsville, swearing vengeance against
the whole white race, and declaring they
would not leave a white man, woman or
child alive iu the parish. This qreated
apprehensions and excitement at Con
chatta and throughout the surrounding
country, and Friday night the roads lead
ing into the town were picketed. Two
young men (Joe Dickson and Mr. Pickens)'
who were on one of the posts halted a
negro who was coming to tqwn with a
sack of buck-shot. He paid no. fittention
to their command to halt, uud rauoff jiito
the darkness, being fired at by one of the
party with no effect, however. They iiti
mediately went into the town to report
what hail occurred, and wore returning
to their post when they were accosted in
the streets of Couchatta by Homer
Twitchell and two notorious negro desper
adoes named Bosley and Bob Smith, jfll.
of whom were anned. .They had a ,few
minutes conversation with ,them, not of a
violent nature, and had turned to proceed
to their post, when they were fired upon
twice by that party fromtbe roar, without
warning. , ?,
Dickson was dangerously, if not mortal
ly, wounded, and ho now lies in a
critical condition. Pickens escaped
unhurt. The firing party then ran off,
Bosley and Smith escaping altogether,,
and Twitchell for the time being. That
night anil the next morniii ifP. fi!
ton, Homer J. Twitchell, R. A. Demco,
YV. F. Howell, C. Holland and M. C.
Willis, (all white), besides a number of
negroes, were arrested And placed under
guard. All of the party who held office
then voluntarily tendered and wrote out
their resignations, aud they, with others,
voluntarily proposed that'if a guard was
furnished them to Shreveport that they
would leave the State and return no more.
That was at once assented to, and the
! prisoners requested John .t’iirr, a reliable
and trustworthy citizen .present, to take
charge of tho guard fqr dheir protection.
Sunday morning ut 10 o’clock, Carr, with
a guard of about sixteen men, started
j with the aliovc named prisoner except tho
j negro who was released.
Afterwards a party of between forty and
j fifty, supposed to be Texans, who had
come into Conehntta, started in pursuit
j with the avowed purpose of lynching the
I prisoners. Later iu the day Out was
j apprised of this fact, aud put his horses
j and tho.se of the prisoners to the top of their
! speed to avoid being overtaken. While
nearing Hutchinson's plantation, on Rod
ltivcr, some thirty miles liolow Shreve
port, with a . View of crossing there, and
destroying tho flat host, to jirevent fur
ther pursuit, he was overtaken by the
pursuing party. The guard were over
powered, and the prisoners taken away
from him and three of them—Eilgarton,
Twitoliell and Dewees—shot ou tho spot.
Tho other three—Howell, Holluud and
Willis—wero carried back a short dis
tance, to near Ward’s Storo, and there
shot. Tho citizens iu the neighborhood
assembled yesterday morning and buried
the parties who had been killed— the first
three iu the graveyard near Hutchinson's
plantation, and the last three on the s|iot
where they hud boon killed, near Ward’s
store.
