T. Nisbet, is a book filled with important information and should be in the liorary of every Georgian. We are told that cotton sold in Lawrenceville this week for 9 cents. This was caused by sharp bidding by buyers, and on accounts. We believe tliai the staple will soon be worth 9 cents, legitimate trading. Farmers say that in view of the shortage in the crop and the decrease in acreage Rockdale will not ship more than half the number of bales of cotton this year as last. The yield per acre may reach two-thirds of last year’s crop. Hear what the Oconee Enter¬ prise says of Congressman Law eon : “Lawson’s name will go down the ages as one of Geor¬ gia’s most illustrious sons and one whom aii Georgians delight¬ ed to honor. His star lias not yet reached the zenith of its glo ry and will'not until he becomes a leading figuie m the highest legislative body 111 the world— the United States Senate.” Mr. R. 13. Bacon, ol loledo, (>., a brother-in-law of President Clevehind, is quoted as saying that liis understanding is that Mr. Cleveland desires to retire from politics at the end of hiS term and devote himself to the practice of law, and that the President is not a candidate for another nomination. Mr. Cleve¬ land's friends have not suspect¬ ed him ol wanting to be a can¬ didate again, but heretofore they have had no information as to what business lie will prob¬ ably engage in at the end of his term.—Columbus Enquirer. 109 bales of cotton have been sold in this market, including last Thursday’s .sales. The pri¬ ces ranged from 7 cents, at the outset, to 84 cents t his week. If we place the weights at 500 pounds (and we think this not too high) the average amount would be, at an average of 8 cents, 840 per bale, or a total of 818,700. Tlxis has been applied largely to accounts,yet the fann¬ ers have much cash from the sales. Rockdale county is a small one, but we suppose there will be brought to this market at least 6,000 bales, this at pres¬ ent prices will bring in 240,000 dollars. With supplies at home, our people are certainly in a better condition than for yea r s “GUITAR DAVE.” You’ll lind him in the barber shop, a eap upon Lis head OrigiuaVbelongin’ to sc me Confederate dead. ilis clothes are suck an’ ragged; his feet half shod—no more; But he sings from morn till night o( one “Brady's 14.” lie is liapp’er than the rie - ’ ones, win ride Dame Fortune's wave; Ks lazy es God makes ’mu, but content ed—“Guitar Dave.” j He mil its an’ plats an’ that the gniar rain. througl the sunshine While the neighbors swear, dadburnif. lie’ll run ’em all insane!
