The blnckerry brigade bn* start¬

tho old plaintive cry, “want tar

delicacies for winter’s use this

On account of the grand pros¬

A very important whether question now f*r
under discuimion is, a
mor is justified in paying 75 cents
a day for chopping hands, to save
the cotton that has been planted.
It is a perplexing problem Where
a man stands to face with the sug
{jmstion of abandonment of the ef¬
fort to save at a greater cost than
be realized nt market time.
How far such prices may bate n
tendency to further confuse field
labor with the importance of its
demand may not be easily reckon¬
ed. fields There where a vs probably ninny
the emergency may
lustify this expoiiCo for extra good
nai.de, and necessity, in other in¬
stances, may compel it as a lesser
evil; but in many instances it may
be wiser to consider a of
fields, or parts of fields, and turn
all attention to them, abandoning
parts rather than incurring un¬
profitable expence. A story that
Henry Grady used to tell may af¬
ford some consolation in such in¬
stances. In a year like this a
Middle Georgia planter, helpless
and hopeless before hia grass-j
choked cotton, disgusted to dis-;
tract ion, bantered a Northern man,
whoshrewly discovered his pros

crop ever grown or

A good many people, and women as
well as men, seem to leave their
manners at home when they go trav¬
eling on a railroad train. Not satis¬
fied with getting the very best, seats,
for which they can scarcely be blam¬
ed, they often appropriate twice and
even four times as much space a 8
they pay for, and thus rob other pas¬
sengers of their rights. Wo have
seen a worn »n, with her bundles and
packages, occupying two whole
seats, while elderly men were stand¬
ing in the aisle. There is no place in
the world, except tlie south, where
this would be tolerated, and it ought
not to be tolerated even here.
