Thoiuasville Enterprise: Hon. William
E. Smith has written an oj.cn letter to C. II.
C. Willingham, denying in toto the cliarge
that he (8mith) favored Felton???s election.
This denial was not neeewgiry here, but it
may be in the seventh. When Toombs
amt Stephens countenance Felton???s candi-
??lacy some men might he green enough t-
it Luster can. His lungs are like a pair of
heliowses and his hide like a bear skin, and
then he's got the spirit of Julius Caesar,
which acts like a big fly-wheel to an engine,
and keeps it a movin', steam or no steam.

The Newnan fair began Tuesday and
concluded yesterday. Poor good days of
real enjoyment were had by the people of
Coweta and their visiting friends. Some
ago the grounds were sold at sheriff???s
sale, and an association of enterprising citi
zens of Coweta bought them and improved
them considerably. They are now in excel
lent condition. The association will keep up
the annual fairs, and try to make them so
successful as to be able to return tlie grounds
to the county association, perfectly free
from all encumbrances. Four years ago
Newnan liad a famously good bur,
and ever since then the public lias expected
something extraordinary from our little sis
ter city. The present exhibition has been
all respects satisfactory. Tuesdav there
large attendance, and the day was
spent in getting everything ready for the
succeeding days. In the afternoon ???Kim

the best in 2:55.
Wednesday there was a fine attendance.
The fair fully opened. All the county
seemed to come to town, and. as is usual on
h occasions, everybody seemed ???flushed???
and happy. All jorts of the exhibition
.* largely visited, aud the general verdict
that the exhibition was very good in
dexed.
In tlieattcmoon the track was quite inter
esting. ???Kimball Jackson,??? with the lau
rels of his previous victory, was quite ready
for another in the two in three mile
trotting for the day. He met a signal de
feat. however, being left by ???Chieftain,??? a
su{*erb Kentucky stallion, who will cut a
dash at our fair. Private time put the fig
ures of ???Chieftain's??? first heat at 2:41, and
the second at 2:39???a fine record. There was
very interest running??ace between some
country horses just after the trot. Thurs

THE BIG DAY
the fair and attracted very large crowds
from Coweta and several surrounding coun
ties.
Tlie number of articles on exhibition was
greatly increased, and tlie fair made more
interesting every day.
At-11 o???elxx???k Captain Henry Persons, of
Talbot, addressed a very large crowd on his
candidacy for congress. He received fine
attention, and was frequently cheered by
1??N hearers.
The spectators seemed to take in tlie ex
hibition in a sort of general round which
was xjuite interesting. In the stables tliere
was much to interest the lovers of fine stock.
Mr. J. H. Porks exhibited some fine sheep.
The show of liogs was unusually large anxl
excellent. There were fourteen pens with
Tty hogs and pigs in a state of glorious fat
ness. The jieople of Coweta are learning the
precious secret of raising their own meat.
Of blooded cows aud bulls,the show was very
creditable. Pa-sing on to the horse stables
there was as pretty. a show of colts as one
would wish to see. .A look over the stables
Newnan and LaGrange would convince
yone tliat the quality of Georgia raised
horses is being wonderfully improved. Our
farmers are learning the economy of good
atock in preference to ???scrubs.???* All the
colts were shown on the track at nxxm for
the premium. The get of ???Sain Weller???
were particularly admired. He stood quite
a jatriarcli surrounded by five promising
children. This honored parent will attenxl
our fair with his progeny.
A handsome sixteen-year-old Weller colt,
lielonging to Mr. Lumpkin, of Coweta,
bore^ff the blue, ribbou over all competi
tors. Tlie competition of buggy horses was
very spirited.
Passing from the lower stock exhibition
into the agricultural hall, a fine display of
the pnxlucts of the county could be seen.
Coweta is one of our best fanning counties,
and her fanuers are always ready to show
what they are doing. The exhibition of corn,
cotton, the grains, sorghum and other fanu
oducts. was highly creditable.
Iu the ladies??? hall the merchants of New-
m made quite a display. Here
there was not such a variety of fancy-
work as was expected, but what was slmwii
was finely executed. One notable exhibit
beautiful ladies linen thread hand
kerchief shown by Mrs. Daniels and pro-
???ounced exquisite by lady critics. Miss
'ulberaoii, of Atlanta will exhibit it at
our fair.
In tlie afternoon a coll race between Dr.
Divine???s brown filly and a colt owned by-
Mr. Glover, of Heard county, created quite
an enthusiasm. The Divine colt won ny a
length after a hard run of a mile.
A jacing race between Mr. Berry???s ???But
ton??? and a Covington horse was ready when
rain came in torrents and iuterferrrd.
A mule race with six entries created
much fun and enthusiasm. All Hew the
track and ran in four or five directions,
but one came out a xjuartcr of a mile ahea>
and won the cup.
The crowd was driven from the ground:
?ry soon, and the day???s festivities had :
m??1 close. At night the city was chuck
full of people, all in good humor and bent
l having as good a time as possible.
The court-house was crowded with white
and negroes to hear Captain Persons sjseak
again. His effort elicited frex|uent and
loud applause. He was followed by Mr.
???obb, of Carroll, and ex-Scnator Brewster,
of Coweta, both of whom seemed to
???ess the crowd very favorably.
Yesterday the fair closed quite successful
ly. The crisp, clear day brought out every
body, and the day was tlie must pleasant * '
the four.
As I left Newnan, Major Moses, of Co
lumbus. was s;??eaking to a very large crowd
the grounds, in the interest of Captain
Persons.
Much of the success of the fair resulted
from the labors of Mr. Bird Berry, Mr. Ar-
lando Mcljemlon, the efficient secretary- of
the association, and Mr. W. IR Davis, the
n}??erintendeiit of the grounds, who did
all that could have been wished. Dr. \V. H.
White, of Atlunta was one of the most
interested sj>ectators. Otis Jones, former
ly of our city, wore a blue badge and slid
efficient work as a director. Friday???s suc
cess closed what Newnan may be sure was

TO MAKE IT PAY.
If farming is engaged in for profit, fhen
be sure to lay in a supply of good tools and
plenty of them. Discard the worn out, old-
fashioned plows, broken hoes, and all such
implements of agriculture, and procure
ones of more recent invention, tliat you
may do more and better work. Make ail
the manure you can. and deposit it in your
land; it will never go to protest. Adopt a
rotation of crops, and rotate only on tlie
amount of land you can fertilize liberally,
and plow thoroughly. Providence has
given us a good state to live in; has diversi
fied it with hills and valleys, woods and
lains; intersected it with rivers, and the
most beneficial means to supply the wants
our nature and guard us against the in
clemency of the seasons. It b wrong that
much of the state is not in the hands of
men who would improve iu The unfruit
ful appearance of the red hills and pine
thickets, in many localities, is a tacit re
proach of negligence. If diligence, skill
and liberality were exercised by many of
ners of these lamb, their laNjrs
would be crowned with success. They
would be clothed with the refreshing ver-
due of grain and grass, orchards and sliade
trees, and be enriched with such abundant
cgetables as are conducive to our suste
nance.
FEED WELL.
We advise our farmers to feed their hogs
well liow, and fatten the pork os soon os jus-
sible. As a general tliiug, many persons
put off the fattening of hogs too late. If
you wish to have good fat hogs gp to work
now. It b poor economy to keep too many
slioats over through the winter. Save a
few choice sows, and when they go to breed
ing, with care and m>od management tlieir
pigs will make fine hogs next winter.
WHEAT PLANTING.
In some sections of the country farmers
are raising wheat by what b called the
English method???that is drilling the seed.
The seed are planted in rows two feet apart,
and the grains are put three inches apart.
The wheat is cultivated twice???once as early
as practicable in the spring, and again when
the wheat b about six inches high. Some
think the rows should not be so far a)art.
This plan b being tried in Virginia and
Kentucky and some other states.
READ.
A fanner should read and study his busi
ness just as any other man would* hb biisi
ness. Nob only this, but if he cxjiects to
keep liis boys on the farm, there is much to
lcam that would not only benefit them but
make them more cheerful and better satis
fied with farming. There are facts in plant
ing that the cultivator of the soil should
know, aud when he knows these facts, lie
can discover better ways of doing things,
and he will find out tliat there are easier
methods to arcomplbh the same results.
When a fanner picks up a hoe. a plow-
harrow, and knows he is providing the
xlitions of chemical changes, he b apt to
do hb work intelligently and is dbi??osed
more than ever to fall in love with liis call
ing.
FERTILIZERS.
gratifying to state that frequently
letters are received at The Constitution
office making inquiries aNiut fertilizers,
and particularly of home-made anicles.
We repeat, as we have often said, farmers
shoula rely as much as possible upon their
animals for manure. The manure pile cat
be added to in various ways. Farmer, d<
you keep any sheep, and do you salt them
on the worn sjiots m your fields? Do you
keep hogs, and do you fatten them in tlie
pea-fields? Are your horses, and mules,
and cattle kept in littered stalls -or yards at
night? Is tne decayed animal ana vegeta
ble matter about your farm added to the
manure mile? Is the waste from your
kitchen, the water front your tubs,* the
muck from your swamps, or leaves from
yonr woods put on tlie manure pile?
Now see how large a manure pile you
ive manufactured on the farm, and
will be surprised to see how much you have
to help bring up the cotton yield, and how
much to assist in tlie production of bread,
fruits and vegetables.
PEACH TREES.
It b just as easy to grow a good variety of
peaches as a poor one, and it certainly is
profitable to have nice fruit. Tliere
more delicious fruit. There is but
little trouble or expense in raising peaches,
and it is ea*y to have healthy trees. After
setting out trees, keep the middluof them
trimmed so that the air can circulate freely
through the heads. Never permit dead
limbs or diseased ones to remain, but cut
them close to the main limbs or branches.
leave snagson the trees, as they work
harm. Some fruit growers complain of the
injury to tlieir trees from borers or grubs,
who accumulate about the bar, just below
tlie suface of the soil. By examining the
trees they find the grub some six inches
below the ground. Keep the trees pruned
and kept low; ocpasionally stir tlie soil
around the roots, ami every spring apply
superphosphate of lime, spreading it around
the trees as far as the roots extend, forking
it in lightly, then tlie peach orcliard will be
in a nice fruitful condition and not apt t<
be troubled by borers or by disease.

any information aNtut them except
what has been derived from or since the

these telegrams generally. I shall speak

First, those which relate to an offer pur
porting to have becu made in behalf of
some members of tlie state board of can-
assers of Florida to give for pecuniary
compensation the certificates of democratic
electors who had been actually chosen.
None of these telegrams, nor any telegram
communicating such offer, or answering
such offer, or relating to such offer, was seen
by me, translated by me, or the contents of
any manner made known to me. I
had no knowledge of the existence or the
purport of any telegram relating to that
ubject, nor did I learn the fact that such
offer of Florida certificates liad been made
until long after the Ctk of December, at
which time the certificates were delivered,
and tlie electoral vote cast, and when the
information casually reached me, as of a
past event, it was accompanied by tlie state
ment that the offer liad been rejected.
Secondly, as to the publications in tlie
Tribune this morning, purporting to be
translations of cipher telegrams relating to
the canvass of the votes in South Carolina

foregoing, I can s{ieak of them no less defi

with any of them in resjiect to the certifi
cates to electors, was ever authorized or
sanctioned in airy manner by tue, directly
or through any other person. I will add
that no offer to give tlie certificates of any
returning board or state canvassers of anV
state to the democratic electors, in consid
eration of promises of office, or money, or
property; no negotiations of tliat nature
in behalf of any member of such U>ard
with any such members, and no
attempt??? to lufiuence the action of
any .such member, or to influence the
action of any elector of president and
vice-president by such motives, was ever en
tertained, considered or tolerated by me or
by anybxjdy within my influence, by my
consent or with my knowledge or acquies
cence. No such contemplated transaction
could at any time have come within the
range of my power without that power be
ing instantly exerted to crush it out. A
belief was doubtless current that the certifi
cates from the state of Florida conforming
to the actual vote of the fieople, were in the
market. ???I have not the slightest doubt in
the world,??? said Dr. Suite ns tall, who was
in Florida at the time, in a recent interview
with the Herald, ???tliat that Florida vote
could have been bought, if Mr. Tilden liad
lieen dishonorable enough to desire it done,
for a great deal less than $50,000 or $20,000.
It was known that either one of the two
members who composed the majority of tlie
Florida state canvassers could control its
action and give the certificates to the
democrats. Either one xif them could
settle the presidential controversy
favor of the democratic candi

ap;??cared on the face of the county returns,
including among them the true return from
Baker county, notwithstanding the great
frauds against the democrats in some county
returns. He also confessed that in voting
to give tlie certificates to the republican

promises that he should be rewarded in case

THE CROP PROSPECTS,
A General Walk Over the Field* In
Cultivate
Washington, October 18.???The official
agricultural reports place the average
dition of the com crop at 96, an increase of
4 over the September average. The New
England, middle and Gulf states show
small decline. Tlie South Atlantic states
maintain their September condition, while
all other sections indicate improvement.
The outturn of the crop will not vary largely
from 1,300,000,000 bushels.
The October returns of wheat do not
terially change the statistical aspects of the
crop. The final returns will not be made
until tlie December returns have been tabu
lated. The New England and middle states
indicate a slight advance upon the p
yield. The gulf states indicate
more decided advantage. owi .
the superior crop of Texas. The south At
lantic states ana the southern inland states
show a very heavy decline, which, how
ever. is more than compensated by the gen
eral increase in the Mississippi valley and
on the Pacific coast.
The yield, on the whole, will be in an ad
vance of last year, and from present indi
cations will exceed four hundred million
bushels. The indications favor an oat
crop larger than the crop of 1877.

pretexts for taking from the jieople their
rightful choice fur the presidency and
vice-presidency. These certificates were
declared by the tribunal *to which

was received by the public with uiativ mis
givings. But all doubts were soon cleared
away ny the prompt success of the remedy.
Certificates from all classes of the jieople
came (touring in, and Mr. Woolley was jus
tified. There were pa(iers from clergymen,
jiracticing physicians and jirofessionals. all
testifying to the absoluteness and perma
nency of the cures worked by tlie remedy,
under tlieir own (personal knowledge.
But, as seldom liajipens, there is one test
that covers all the (stints of the rest in the
opium cure. If Mr. Woolley had never re
ceived a single certificate but this???if he
had never effected a cure but this???his med
icine would stand as the best in America
accredited by this one case.
tue history of the cask.
Years ago, Dr. A. A. J. Riddle, of Alaba
ma, received a terrible wound. While suf
fering from this he was forced to use mor
phine in pretty good quantities. Befxire he
was aware of it tlie awful habit had en
slaved him, and, unable to resist it, he sank
dee(??er and deeper into its power. He neg
lected his business, became wholly unfit for
the attention of his large property, and fell
into a fearful condition, tic rested in a
deep stupor for month after month, and
gave up everything in life. He was a
wealthy man, jirotninent in his state, and
surrounded by friends. Of course, they
tried everything that was possible to break
the dreadful habit. He tried remedy after
remedy, but of no avail. The habit only
settled the closer about him, and held him
more heljiless in its embrace. Hundreds of
dollars and inontlis of heroic endeavors
were spent in the effort to reclaim him
self, but all hopelessly.
At length, in desjieration, Dr. Riddle came
to Atlanta, determined to try once more and
finally txi cure himself or Ilie in the effort.
When he reached the city he could not
walk. He had to be carried up and down
stairs. He was then taking morphine and
iiloral regularly as follows:
Thirty grains of morphine in the morning.
One hundred grains of hydrate of chloral at
toon.
Thirty grains of morphine at Rundown.
One hundred grain* of chloral about ten o'clock.
NEXT morning.
Sixty (60) grains of morphine in the morning.
Fifty (50) ??? ?????? chloral at noon.
Sixty (60) 44 44 morphine at sundown.
Fifty (50) > ??? ??? chloral about ten o'clock.
( Amounting in all to one hundred and
eighty (180) grains of morphine aud three
hundred (300) grains of chloral in forty-
eight (48) hours, and was in a truly pitiable
and critical condition. He went to a most
excellent iimtitution in the city, aud ap
plied for relief. The managers received him
doubtfully, telling him with admirable
candor that they believed his case was hope
less. After a few days of trial and intense
suffering they tolxl him they could not bone
e him. He was then lying at tlie
. (mint of ilcath. Every condition of
his life was abnormal and artificial, and it
seemed impossible tliat human skill could
restore all tlie jarred and shattered forces
of his system to their natural and hurnio-
nious action. It was thought that the fitful
flare of life would flicker out at every
ment.
In this conxlition he (Woolley) took
charge of the case, feeling tliat at last his
metlicine was put to its supreme test. Al
most immediately I>r. Riddle began to
yield to his treatment. The worn and
broken system resjionded promptly to the
magical remedy. It is not worth while to
follow him through all the stages of recov
ery. It is sufficient to say that to-day he
is perfectly sound, healthy and vigorous,
and lias left off the antidote, and now has
no desire for either. We could hardly be
lieve it if we had not ourselves seen it, the
jiiarvelous cliauge effected in Dr. Riddle ii
so sluirt a time. From the trembling, help
less imbecile of a few months ago, then
weighing 109 and now 165. lie is a sturdy,
steadfast man???strong, clcar-headcd aiid
eager. His old ambitions, hojies and ener
gies have come lrnck to him, and he '
anxious to get at his work. He savs ti
last ten years seem to hint a horrid dream,
blurred and dim. He looks hack on them
with aversion, and lias no more desire
return to them than a traveler, standing
revived and refreshed in bracing air and
sunshine, would go back into a musky cave
in whose foul vajiors lie had well-nigh lxist
his life and reasou. ??
It is a strange physiological fax???t that the
cure ha* not only restored Dr. Riddle's sys
tem to its normal working, leaving not a
single organ out of harmony, hut has re
stored even his old-titne habits. For in
stance, it was liis invariable habit to arise at
4 o???clock in tlie morning aud go at
the su|??ervision of his farm work. After
years of .stujmr and oblivion, lie finds his
old habits restored, and after a night of calm
restfulness he awakes every morning at 4
o???clock. In short, Mr. Woolley lias built
a new man out of the heljiless and inert
ass of nervous tissue tliat came to him a
w a months ago.
I)r. Riddle is a prominent citizen of Ma
rengo county, Alabunia, and is well known
all over the state as a man and jihysiciati of
high character and absolute integrity. Those
who doubt the truth of tlie above statement,
or any j??art of it, can write to Dr. Kiddle
and learn that we have tolxl but half the
truth. This cure has been witnessed by
some of the first-class physicians of At
lanta.
Dr. Riddle desires to express his everlast
ing gratitude to Mr. Woolley and hosjiitablc
family for their unwearied and tender
kindness to hitn during his days of lielji-
lessness and suffering. He was taken to
their home anxl given all tlie kindm>s.s and
syuijiuthy that he coulxl have had from his
own jieojile. ???
As for us, it has given us jileasure txi
record from I>r. Riddle???s xiwn lips the story
of tliis wonderful cure. Mr. Woolley is a
inxist excellent man, one of our best citizens,
anxl the cure he has efix?cted in this case is
simjily miraculous.
