In the last issue oi this paper our sa
lutatory appeared, but we were then
unable to fully define our position, be-
iDg personally absent from the office
and from the eounty. Since that time
we have arrived at the home of our
childhood, and taken possession pf the
paper for which we did our first work,
as a typo and as an editor. Upon oer
arrival we w ere met with the cordial
welcome of many friends, and encour
aged by promises of hearty co-operaticn
with us iu our intention to give to the
readers of The Home Journal a paper
worthy of their pernsal and support.
With us this is a business enterprise,
and, to be made snecessful, it mast be
conducted on business principles. Our
time, talents and energy will be devoted
to the general interests of the readers of
this paper, and for this we expect to be
remunerated. We expect nothing but
that for which we give an equivalent,
but we- do expect thatjour c!u s will be
rendered freely and promptly,
We know that Houston county is
populated by a class of citizens who are
second to none in Georgia in point of
intelligence, e.iit.ife aud true gentility.
Knowing this, we feel secure iu the
hope that our efforts to advance the in
terests of the county will be warmly
seconded by every reader of The Home
Journal. Our most earnest efforts will
be concentrated in the continuous en
deavor to puoli h a paper iu which mat
ters of local interest will predominate
But this end will be difficult to reach
single handed, and ask that (he friends
of the paper will, on all occasions, re
port to us anything of local interest that
comes within their knowledge. We
hope to arrange for correspondence
from every section of the county This
done, the paper cannot fail of beiug in-
teresliug to every man, woman and-ohild
iu Houston eounty.
The politics of the paper will undergo
no change i:i point of fact, The prin
ciples of true democracy will be upheld
with all the strength we can command,
j et we propose to do this in a way of
our own, and wili t ike no man as our
pattern, nor follow any leal for policy’s
sak. A sense of duty shall guide us in
every action, aod a devotion, to honest
principles shall be the ruling spirit of
our course iu every campaign."
In succeeding Mr. Martin, our tutor
in the profession, we assume a very del
icate position, for uudea his manage
ment The Home Journal has gained <i
position that commands respect and ad
miration from all its readers. His flu
ency with the pen, together with his
personal popularity, has so endeared
him to the people of Houston county,
aud all other readers of the pnpn', that
□ o small exertion will be required to fiil
! he position he vacates. Though not en
tirely disconnected with the paper, he
may conclude to: enter another field of
of labor. Nevertheless, we earnestly
hope that his course may be lined with
happiness and prosperity. As corfes-
ponding editor Mr. Martin will contin
ue to be connected with the paper, and
as such we ask for him a continuance of
the courtesies and privileges to which
he has been-accustomed as > ditor and
proprietor. His articles wili appear
over the signature, M.
To sum up, we. propose to do the
best we cau to make every department
of The Home Journal a gem of its
kind. Beyond this wo connofc go. Ful
some promises are always empty. We
make none such, and hope that nothing
so evanescent will be offered tous as our
reward.
A PROBLEM
Several rich “pockets” of gold have
recently been j found in the Nacoochee
Valley, in White county. Among the
many nuggets taken out, there is said
to be one that weighs more than a
pound.
From the 1st of September 1878, to
.the 9th of April, 1880, inclusive, the
otlon receipts of Atluuta amounted to
0,000 bales, an increase of 20,000
les over the receipts of the previous
on.
1 he impolicy of making larger «nd
still larger cotton crops year alter year
is perhaps as well understood by the
planters themselves as by the garrulous
town farmers who make a great noise
about it. It is not understood by some,
however, who argue that the last crop
sold for better prices than the smaller
preceding ones. They are not willing
to believe that the improved conditions
of trade would have iusured even better
prices if the crop had been smaller. It
would be irrational to snpppose that,
under the same circumstances, a large
crop would sell higher than a small one.
But the interesting question to which
the foregoing remarks are prefatory, is,
how are the planters to adopt and inau
gurate a sound business, policy? They
are obliged to continue in the way they
nave started. They will even be com
pelled in a few years to make just such
ft crop of cotton os “Carter” made of
oats—not the present season.
Yon see when a man trades away ten
bales of cotton iu the spring, he feels
bound to deliver them in the fall. No
other course is either proper or prudent.
With his means, ten bales cannot be
produced unless rhe acreage of other
crops is matenally diminished. Such
diminution will inevitably lead to larger
necessary purchases the following spring
and the unhappy man will be obliged
to make, eleven bales, or his credit wijl

The Q litman Free Press gives the
following upon an interesting topic agi
tating many of our people.
We learn that a majority of the vaga
bond boys brought to this country about
two weeks since, through the medium
of Georgia’s immigration agent, and as
signed to homes with the very best peo
ple in the country, have left, four or
five taking the gravel train in the direc
tion of New York. These boys have
been kindly treated and looked after
here, no hard work has been imposed
upon then, and everything was d; ne by
the people with whom they wore placed
to make them contented. We learn
that they make terrible complaints and
have written to the man who brought
them here charging that he had deceiv
ed them. The experiment has not
turned but as wo anticipated—we
thonght these nice boys would remain
with their employers at. least four weeks.
The return of these young gentlemen to-
the North will be ns big a thing in tho
way of political capital as the Rulieals
want. Oar citizens are satisfied with
