All is lovely and serene, the cotton crop is about gathered, ex cept the Doctor’s crop, which is mighty-short. We would lova to see some rain now to put the earth in shape for farmers to sow grain. The Juvenile Missionary Socie ty of Grovania had memorial ser vices yesterday at the church in honor and memory of Master Ainsworth Riley, who was a no bis boy. The services were good, and well arranged by Mrs. J. J. Houser. It was an affecting occa sion. Below I have you a programme for publication: Our merchants say their trade has dropped off some, but howev- er, they have no room to grumble, their collections have been fair, and hope to have a good fall and winter trade. Our genial depot agent informs me that he has received and ship ped 520 round lap bales of cotton and 648 square bales this season, equal to 908 square bales, against about the same last season. Mr. J. G. Crawford, manager of the Grovania ginnery tells me that he has ginned and packed 1040 bales of cotton up to date, 915 round lap equal to 457^ square bales. The ginnery has been shut down for several days on account of. th Dearcitye , of wood, but will resume work in a few days. Maj. H, Benson, Sec retary and Treasurer of the. Gro vania, Oil & Fertilizer Co.,informs me that they have bought this season 517 tons of cotton seed, value of about $6000.

As the unwritten law of supply and demand regulates the commer cial value of all products, it is a province of all well regulated gov ernments to secure and publish sta tistics of production. The statistics of this government concerning the production of pre cious metals have recently been pub lished, and the following figures taken therefrom show the United States occupy a leading position in the production of gold and silver, actually leading the world. “The world’s production of gold for 1900 aggregated $257,500,000 in value. _ ■ ■ “Of this amount $79,171,000, or nearly one-third, is credited to our American mines. “Next to the United States as a producer of the yellow metal comes Australia, whose total utput for the year aggregated 74,260,000. “In the silver mining industry the United States also heads the list. “For the year 1900 the total out put of silver in this country aggre gated $35,741,000. Mexico came next with an output valued at $35,- 611,400.” Bridges Smith was nominated for mayor of Macon in a white prima ry last Tuesday.

I met comrades whom I had not seen for nearly forty years. Probably Macon never had,nor may never have again, as many old men as were there on the two days of the reunion. As the old battle flags were unfurled to the breeze and the drums began to beat, we felt like a boy again ready to do battle for the right. The youngest soldier is to-day an old man, and in a few more years what was once the grandest army of the world will hold their last reunion in the un known beyond. As I looked upon this mass of gray heads and totter ing forms, I thought it a pity that Georgia was not able to present to every one of them a cross of honor that would designate them' as mem bers of the old guard and heirs of a lost cause. I could not attend our county fa ; r, but I am glad to say I have not seen a visitor who did not speak of it in the most flattering terms. There is no reason why Houston cannot make an exhibit equal to any county in the state.
