It would not be a bad idea to make a negro

Atlanta Daily Opinion 29th ultimo.
What would not be a “bad idea” tor South
Carolina, would not, we presume, be a “bad
idea” for Georgia with any one capable of utter
ing or publ.shing a sentiment so repugnant to
humanity and Christian civilization, us that em
braced in the foregoing comments of the
“Opinion" upon an event which radical suprem
acy and negro domina'ion will doubtless lender
certain. Not Tliad. Stevens in all ids bate of
the South; not Wendell Phillips with all his
fanaticism ; not Garrison with all his mad zeal
in the cause of abolition ; not Congress in all
its oppressive enactments against the South ; not
tire Republican Party itself iu any ot its declara
tions or multiplied platforms; not any of these
nor from any other source, have we ever se n
or ever heard uttered, a sentimeut so repuguaut
to humanity. Who can doubt that the man or
men who would BUggest the conversion ot “little”
Carolina into a colony of Africans, would hesi
tate, if within his, or their, power, to convert,
Georgia, with her more extended territory, into
a similar colony ? Such gloating over the mis
fortunes of a gallant State and a patriotic people
is unworthy that which bears the impress of a
man.. It is fiendish, and as such will be viewed
even in the Radical North.
If South Carolina did get us “into the trouble,”
Georgia and the other Southern States could
have got us out of it had they pleased; but
they did not please to do so, aud hence it is
most unmanly now to taunt that State, and
gloat over the sufferings of her gallant peo
ple as the “Atlanta Opinion" does. If she did
Bring about “the trouble,” she displayed no
craven spirit during it* existence, aud only sur
rendered when the South, the whole South,
yielded up the contest. What she endured, and
what she has suffered, ought to save her lrom
the reproach the “Opinion” has thought proper
to cast upon her.
On tDe Lincoln National Monument-
Council Proceeding*.
The late hour at which we received, on Satur
day evening last, a copy of the official proceed
ings of Council on the precediug night, prevent
ed any notice, on our part, of the Committee’s
Report on the memorial of the so called “Lin
coln National Monument Association,” aud the
action ot the Council thereon. We make, there
fore, brief allusion to it now, prefacing to what
we shall say, the Report itself and the vote by
which that most extraordinary document was
adopted.
Extract from the Proceedings of Council, Septem
ber 27,1S67.
The Special Committee to whom was referred
the memorial of the Lincoln National Monument
Association, at last meeting, submitted the fol
lowing report, viz;
Hon. Mayor and Council :
Your Special Committee, to whom was refer
red the petition of the Lincoln National Monu
ment Association, respectfully recommend the
city to appropriate ten acres ot land tor the use
ot the Association, and for a City Park, so soon
as the Mayor and Council shall be satisfied of
the ability'of the Association to carry out in good
faith the erection of the monument, and the im ,
provementof the grounds in accordance with S repress.
t'.ie scale of expenditure, viz: seven hundred
and fifty thousand to one million of dollars, pro
posed in the verbal statement made to the Coun-
etl by J. L. Dunning, President of the Associa
tion." Respectfully,
Attention! Merchants.
Now that commercial circles are pulsating
with that quickened activity incident to the au
tumn trade, it is simply folly in our dealers not
to awake to the importance of attracting trade
to Atlanta hv a liberal and judicious system of
advertising. The man of business, be that busi
ness what it may, is anxious that the public
should know of it. It is to his interest that the
public should know of it, for it is to that public
lie looks for patronage. In this age, the news-
paper is the great medium through which the
man of business communicates to the public bis
peculiar avocation and his location. For in
stance, a merchant establishes himself at some
center of trade, opens his house, displays and of
fers his merchandise for sale. Now, it is but
reasonable to suppose the greater his chances of
success the more extensively his business and lo
cality are known to the public. The widely cir
culated journal, then, furnishes the best medium
through which to commanicate to the public.
To nil classes, then, we say that Tiie Intel
ligencer is auxious to serve you, and itself, too,
by heralding your wares aud merchandize to the
country at large. Our prosperity is to a very
large extent dependent upon you, and we pro
pose to assist you very materially by letting
country merchants, and others, know that you
have goods, the kind of goods you have, how
cheaply you can sell them; and, in short, to
proclaim the inducements we know you are able
to ofTer to all who will come to this city as pur
chasers of dry goods, groceries, provisions, hard
ware, crockery, furniture, or tobacco, as well as
the thousand and one other things known to
commerce. Atlanta promises to become the
centre <>1 trade—the commercial emporium of
Georgia. It is here that the planter may come
to dispose of his products, and make the neces
sary purchases for farm use; and before be
comes, he wishes to know something of business
houses, their stock in trade, and their particular
locality. These are important items. They not
only concern the planter, but also the merchant.
It is certainly to the interest of the merchant
that the customer in the market should know
of his business and locality, especially in a large
city where there is so much competition.
Ravage* of the Yellow Fever In New Or-
lean*.
We have before us a daily report of the rav
ages made by this awful scourge in New Orleans
since it made its appearance this season in that
city. It seems that the first death from it oc
curred on the 7th day of July last, and that the
deaths,as officially reported, commenced and pro
gressed up to the 24th instant as follows:
July 7 1
July 14 8
July 21 2
July 28 * 5
August 4 9
August 11 14

September 1 129
September 8 245
September 15 858
September 22 418
September 23 77
Sepiember24 82
From other fevers during the same period, there
have occurred 439 deaths, and from various dis
eases 1,520; this making a grand, solemn total of
deaths in that city, from the 7th day of July last
up to the 24th iustant, both inclusive, of 3405, a
number equal to the slain in many a hard fought
battle during the late war.
■Slack Voter*—Mean White*.
Leaving all political, partizan, and sectional
considerations out of sight, there is a meanness
of spirit, on the part of the Northern and Wes
tern Republicans, in banding over ten entire
States, the heritage heretofore of men of their
own race, to the domination of negroes, who but
yesterday were slaves. A people who have no
pride of race, can have no self-respect, is in a
lair way to earn the contempt of mankind every
where.

of our country is proceeding, under the inspira

Let it he borne in mind, now that these ne
groes are to help govern us, as well as govern
the white men at the South. The negroes we
suspect will be truer to their own race than the
mean (Puritan) white is, to his. At the start, he
mav allow himself to be used by the Yankee
politicians who want to till the offices in the
“reconstructed” States, but in a little while, ne
gro human nature will assert itself. “Blood is
thicker than water,” and the water will find its
level. Anou, these vast negro majorities will be
cast tor the election only of Africans, and the
Africans in due time will be, not only, as they
are already in New Orleans, on the Judicial
bench, but in the Senate and House of Repre
sentatives at Washington, helping to make
white men’s Tax Bills, white men’s Treaties
a it ii Foreign Countries, ect., ect. In this as
pect of the case, New York aud New Jersey are
as hkelv to experience the blissful effects of Ne
gro Supremacy, as South Carolina, Louisiana or
Georgia. What a mean idea the negro must
have of the white men, to be sure, who are thus
ignoring their own race, and abjectly calling
upon them to be their law makers !—New York

From the Montgomery Mail.
The Preitldent’s Amnesty—The Hon. S. F.
Rice.
There was inaccuracy in our statement in our
last issue, that Judge Rice took “the registration”
oath, and thereupon offered to register. He
could not Like that, because he had been a mem
ber of the Legislature and Chief Justice of the
Supreme Court before the war.
The oath which he took was not “the registra
tion” oath, but the one prescribed in the Pro
clamation of the President, dated 7th of Septem
ber, 1867; whicii is as follows:
“I do solemnly swear iu the presence of Al
mighty God, that I will henceforth faithfully
support, protect and defend tbe Constitution of
the United States and the Union of the States,
thereunder, and that I will in like manner abide
by and faithfully support all laws and proclama
tions which have been made during the late re
hellion with reference to the emancipation of
slaves; so help me God.”
The opinion of Judge Rice is, that every citi
zen who is supposed to be disfranchised by the
late legislation of Congress in relation to the
Southern States, or by participation, either di
rect or implied, in the late war, (except only
those embraced iu the exceptions contained in
said proclamation,) may avail himself of said
proclamation by taking said oath and causing
the same to be registered as therein prescribed ;
and that on doing this, every such citzen secures
to himself “the restoration of all privileges, im
munities, aud rights of property, except as to
property with regard to slaves, and except in
cases ot legal proceedings under the laws of the
United States.”
The Constitution of the United States express
ly declares to the President “power to grant re
prieves and pardons for offences against the
United States, except in cases of impeachment.”
Hence, by the Constitution, the power of the
President to grant a lull pardon, with full resto
ration of all privileges, immunities, and rights ot
property, which are forfeited or lost by an offence
against the United States exists in every case,
“except iu cases of impeachmant.”
As this power is given to the President by the
Constitution, Congress has no power to pass any
act or do anything which can operate to destroy,
impair or abridge it to any extent whatever. In
this respect the President is as independent of
Congress as he is of any State Legislature or
City Council. No matter what Congress may
have done before such full pardon may be grant
ed by the President, or what Congress may do
after such full pardon, the pardon is just as fully
operative as if Congress had never doue or at
tempted to do anything on the subject.
One of the privileges which is restored to the
citizen by such pardon is tlie right to vote.
Judge Rice is further of opinion, that the citi
zen who lias taken aud caused to be registered
as aforesaid the oath prescribed iu said procla
mation ot September 7, 1867, is, therefore, re
stored to the privilege of voting without any of
fering to have himself registered by or before the
Board of Registration under the reconstruction
acts of Congress. He made the offer before the
board on Saturday merely out of abundant cau
tion ; but be does Dot think any such offer es
sential to his right to vote.
He intends to offer to vote at the ensuing elec
tion ; and he thinks that every citizen who is em
braced by the proclamation of the President of
the 7th September, 1867, and who, between this
time and the time of the election, shall have com
plied with that proclamation, will lie thereby
restored to the privilege of voting, and that if
such citizen, after such compliance, offer to vote,
and the managers refuse to allow him to vote,
they thereby become liable to him for damages,
which he may sue for and recover.
As far as we are informed the opinion of Judge
Rice is generally concurred iu by the members of
the bar.
Judge Rice, so far as we are informed, is the
first to put himself in a position to raise before
the courts, tbe question, whether the President’s
late proclamation does not restore the right of
voting to even the supposed disfranchised citi
zens who comply with it. It is to be hoped that
all of our disfranchised citizens will follow his
example, and thus put themselves in a position
to obtain their rights by a calm and peaceful ap
peal to 'he judicial tribunals.
Why should any citizen omit the opportunity
to seek from the courts what is denied under the
military or reconstruction hills? The way is
marked out. Will the disfranchised fail to put
themselves in that way. Every one of them
ought to comply with the proclamation before
the day of election, and thereupon to offer to
vote at the election. This is what they owe to
themselves and their country.

The LIcht Case—HI* Acquittal and. Re-
lease.
We make the following extract from an article
in the Cartersville Express of yesterday headed
as above :
Our readers have heard much during the last
week concerning the “Light case,” and, intense
interest having been manifested in the case dur
ing its progress, we propose, now, as the mat-
ter.has finally ended, to give our readers a true
version of the affair, as we have been able to
gather it. We have determined to submit the
facts fully and impartially to our readers, as we
learn, with much regret, that many false and
exaggerated rumors have gained circulation
which do great injustice to the military authori
ties. From all that we can learn at the adjourn
ed term of the Superior Court, about the last of
July, Wm. Light and others, were tried before
his Honor, Judge Milner, under tlie charge of
haviug murdered „ in this Co., about
the day of 1864, and
by the verdict of the jury were all acquitted.—
After the acquittal of Mr. William Light in that
case, a suspicion, (and, we have no doubt, an un
founded suspicion,) arose, that, although under
bond to appear and stand his trial at this term
ot the court under the charge of having mur
dered J. L. Satterfield in this county,on the lSih
day of November, 1864, that he would flee the
country aud not appear for trial. Tiiese fears
were not entertained by the surities upon his
bond, but by others. Under these circumstances
he was arrested, by order of Gen. P.»pe, and kept
in custody by the military until the court was
readv to try him. There being none but a tem
porary and insecure jail iu this county, he was
kept in military custody at Rome.
Court befog in session, he was brought here
from Rome under guard, for trial. On Thursday
of last week the case was taken up. The prose
cution was conducted by the Solicitor-General,
J. R Parrott, and Col. Ilenry P. Farrow, of At
lanta ; the defense by Gen. Wm. T. Wofford and
Col. J. A. W. Johnson, of Dalton. The argu
ment iu tiie case closed on last Monday evening,
and the jury, alter being out until Wednesday at
5 o’clock, p’. m., returned with a verdict of ' not
guilty," whereupon, by special order, Mr. Light
"was released from military arrest The follow
ing is the order relieving him:

II. William Light, citizeu, prisoner, arrested
pursuant to instructions from tnese headquarters,
dated August 6, 1867, and now on trial before

Many persons have thought that Mr. Light,
by order of the military, was on trial the second
time for the same offense, when, in truth, the trial
which he has been undergoing during the past
week, has no connection whatever with the trial
he underwent a few weeks ago.
Tbe prosecution was faithfully, vigorously,
and ably conducted by Messrs. Parrott and Far
row. They discharged their duty—their whole
duty, and nothing but their duly. Mr. Light has
been triumphantly acquitted, aud we congratulate
him on his acquittal. He is a young man of
fine character—made a good soldier—has been
acquitted of all charges—aud we trust will live
a long life of usefulness in our couuty. When
issued a general order as follows:
“Numerous and well-founded representations
having been made that illegal and oppressive
taxes have been imposed in different sections of
the States of North and South Carolina, it is or

otherwise than under the authority of the gov
ernment of the United States which by the terms
of the act imposing the same or by the action of
the public authorities thereunder, shall apply to
any property or rights parted with, or any trans
action made or completed prior to the adoption
of tiie act authorizing the same.
2. \V lienever the power of Congress to regu

issued an order to-day modifying the military
Orders relative to juries in Texas, so as to
render it practicable to obtain juries in that
State. The order requires jurors to be drawn

other oath required than that ot registration.
The election passed off quietly both days. No
official return yet. In the 4th municipal district
the total vote polled was 1,260. The Republican
desponds of tiie vote being large enough to ren
der the election valid, aDd says the white vote is
about one-tenth of the whole entire vote. The
city vote is estimated at 12,000, while the num

noted of negroes voting or offering to vote under
different names from that on the registry list.

Sensible Man.—The New York Times an
nounces that its editor, Mr. Raymond, now “con
siders himself out of politics—certainly out of
all party combinations and party movements—
and intends, moreover, to remain so. When he
declined a re-election to Congress, a year ago, it
was with the purpose of devoting himself wholly
to the editorship of the Times—a position which
is much more to his taste than any other be has
ever filled, and which carries with it quite as
much of influence, honor, and substantial re
ward as any office in the gift of Presidents or of
political parties. And there has been no day
since that time when he has either sought or
would have accepted any office w hatever, either

Washington Matter*.
Washington, Sept. 30.—The report of the
Commissioner of Agriculture for August and
September, represents the wheat crop not as
large as anticipated in July. Corn promises a
fair crop it frosts' do not injure it. The army
worm made its appearance iu cotton fields about
the first iustant, and caused considerable appre
hension in some sections for the safety of crop.
Potatoes are rotting badly in many of the large
potatoe growing States, and the yield will be
less than last year. Owing to the severe weather
last winter the wool crop this year is from five
to ten per cent, less than last.
James M. Murphy, a Nashville negro, has been
appointed by the Sergeant-at-arms ot the United
States Senate, a member ot the Capital police

senting routine for obtaining permits are im
practicable in many instances and generally in
convenient. The Treasury department has the
matter under consideration.

Savannah, Sept 30.—One Bradley, a Boston

by the military and civil authorities for swindling
negroes and exciting disturbances, had a gather

the country; in the course ot his harrangue
against the white man and favoring a distribu

force of police charged through the crowd; the
military came to their aid, and together cleared
the square. Muskets brought in by a large baud
of country negroes were taken by the police and
turned over to the military. A large proportion
of the colored population disapprove Bradley,

Headquarters Fresr Military District. /
State op Virglnia, Richmond, Sept. 24, 1867. >
Mr. James McDonald, Virginia :
Sir—I have received your communication of
this date, asking my decision of the question
whether delegates to the State Convention wiil
be required to take the oath prescribed by the
act ot Congress for officers of the United States
and by section 9 ot the act of July 19, for all
persons hereafter elected or appointed to office
in said military district under auy so-called State
or municipal authority, or by detail or apportion
rnent of the District commanders. In reply
have no hesitation in saying that delegates to
tbe State Convention cannot be required to take
the oath referred to. Section 9 of the act of
July 19 refers to officers elected under authority
of the so-called or provisional State Govern
meats. This cannot be construed to include
delegates to a State Convention, elected under
authority ot the Congress of the United States.
No oath whatever has been prescribed by law
for delegates to the State Convention, and there
is no authority but Congress competent to pre
scribe such oath. The only restriction imposed
upon the registered voters in selection of these
delegates to the Convention is that contained in
the 5th section of the act of JIarch 2, viz:
“ No person not excluded from the privilege
of holding office, by said proposed amendment
to the Constitution of the United States, shall be
elligible to election as member of a convention
to frame a constitution for any of the said rebel
States.”
Yours, very respectfully,
J. M. Schofield,
Brevet Major General, U. S. A.

Matters In Italy.
Florence, Sept. 29.—Garibaldi has written a
letter from prison. He says the Romans have
slaves, and it is the duty of the Italians to help
them. He hopes his fellow patriots will not be
discouraged, but march on to the liberation of
Rome. The eyes of the world are upon them,
and nations aDxiously await the result of their
actions. Later accounts represent the riots as
serious. In some cities the mobs are fierce and
obstinate. The troops are using bayonets and
bullets occasionally—many killed and wounded.

age of 110 years. Mrs. Arnod was born in
Charleston, S. C., 1758, and moved to LoDg

Trenholm & Co., alluded to at length in dis
patches last night, has been consummated. The
negotiations were concluded to-day, and Messrs.
Wagner, Magrath, and Campbell left for Charles

reasons of public policy, declines to make the
terms pubjic just at present, but there is warrant
for saying that the terms ot settlement are fully
as favorable as the Government has ever hoped
for.— Washington Dispatch N. Y. Times, 26th.
Near Rock Island, Illinois, recently, Mrs.
Campbell Bartbell was bitten by a rattlesnake

MnsqnUo, thou internal ihin:.-.
Why do you come, with poisoned sling:.
On buzzing, whizzing, whirring wing,
Aud dav and night around me sing
Thy horrid song ?
From sickly marsh and noisome Icu,
From shadv dale and piea-ant glen.
From hermit's cell and prison don.
From all the haunts of living men
You hail to-night.
Along the hauks of “ Congaree,”
Likewise along the “ Great Pedee,”
In the town* which skirt the sea.
In the “ State of Chivalry ’’
You bored me deep.
Iu “Healthiest City in the State ”
You kept me up till very late.
And acted like yon pad no; ate
A fair and square mosquito bait
This year!
Sojourning in the “cotton belt, ’’
Again your cursed stings 1 felt:
Aud with one blow I could have dealt
(.Ere human blood you could have smelt!
Your tribe to h .
And here I flud yon, loathsome pests.
On wing that never, never rests,
Arising from your lilthy nests.
And prying into honest breasts—
You devil's imps!
Upon the cei'ir.g overhead.
Among the curtaius of the bed.
Upon my hands, upon my head,
And everywhere, as I have said.
You cau be found.
Yon will not let my neighbor siccp-
I hear him enrse yon loud and deep.
And give you to the Kelpie's keep.
Where, far down iu the briny deep.
He hopes you’ll strangle !
Ever aud anon last night—slap! bang !—
“ D—n the thing!” another sang;
Another cries. '• The hellish gang!”
And out of bed another sprang.
With oath-flllcd mouth!
No Bnoring now, in slumber ewee’t—
Bnt. scratching, cursing, stamping feet.
And scrcakiug stead, and rending sheet.
And oaths with which we rare’y meet.
Are sounds I hear.
The bed-bug is no longer feared ;
By Costar’s advertisement scared,
Iu crevice, on his hind-iegs roared,
He dare not now the lion beard.
As m the olden time.
The house-fly, which the lazy dread,
Flits listless now in hall and shed.
And does not o’er the sleepei’s bed.
Nor round his weary, aching head.
Buzz saucily.
Bnt this deceptive, hateful creature,
Will, if h6 can, ho sure to eat you
From feet to head and head and feet, sure—
Which is a very dangerous feature
Of beds without the bars.
Oh 1 where is now that great man Costar ’/
Cannot he And some sort of plaster
To rid us of this greatest nest, sir?
Then, after that, and for the rest, sir.
We'll take liis case.
We’ll decide at once—the devil take him—
Steel-point his bill—be sure to make hi in.
When Thaddeus comes, help to bake him ;
And when he sleeps, why, sing to wake him
To sense of pain.
Last night I did not sleep a wink.
Nor will to-night, I hardly think;
Therefore, I’ve taken pen and ink,
(Ere through loss of sleep I sink.)
To warn my friend,
That ere like sleep he feels inclined,
To look around and try and And
Some curtain, bar, or net, or blind,
To keep the insect out.

The Nashville City Election Farce.
The Nashville Gazette, of Sunday morning
contains the following account of the election
farce that took place in that city on the day pre
vious. It is stated that the present Mayor oi
Nashville intends to hold on until the provisions
ol the City Charter in regard to the city elec
tions are set aside by tiie courts, provided, we
presume, the military authority does not eject
him from office:
The farce is over and tiie drama is about to
commence ; whether the entertainment will ter
minate iu a tragedy or not remains to be seen.
On Friday night the militia took possession oi
the various voting places designated by the City
Marshal, and at seven o’clock Saturday morning
our streets were tilled with United Slates troops,
infantry and cavalry 7 , on their way to the differ
ent precincts to relieve the militia. Thus the
polls were in possession of the military during
the entire night aud until tiie close of the farce at
four o’c’oek, when they were ordered back to
their headquarters.
When it became known to our citizens that the
military would have control of the election, most
of the Conservative candidates withdrew from
tiie contest, and very few white men voted at all,
except the Radicals, who expect to teed from
he public crib. Everything went off quietly,
and some of the wards polled very few votes.
According to appointment the officers of elec
tion appointed by tbe Board of Aldermen met
tbe Council chamber, Captain Driver in cliair,
hen the following document was drawn up
and signed by those present :
Nashville, Tenn., Sept. 20,1867.
To the Honorable Mayor and Board of Aldermen
of the city of Nash ville :
Genttemkn—We, tiie judges and clerks ap
pointed by you to conduct the polls in the first,
second, third,fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth,
ninth aud tenth wards, for the election to be held
this day, for Mayor, Aldermen find Common
Councilmen, respectfully submit that we were
ready and willing to perform that duty, at the
places designated, but were prevented from so
doing by a strong military force, by whom pos
session of the places were formerly Iftken ou the
evening of the 27th, aud retained until a late
hour this day, and that therefore no election
was held under tbe city charter. Signed by the
judges, etc.
The Election.—The returns as far as heard
from up to nine o’clock show that Alden re
ceived a large majority. The returns for the
first, sixth and tenth wards were not in, but we
learned from outside sources that they will in
crease Alden’s majority.
The following are the Aldermen and Council-
men elected a la mode :
2d Ward—Alderman, NelsoD ; Councilmen,
Woodmanse and Smith.
3d Ward—Alderman, W. J. Kinney; Council-
men, W. J. Corcoran and M. G. Thayer.
4th Ward—Alderman, R. S. Tuthill; Council-
men, Cockrill and Dm Watkins, colored.
5th Ward—Alderman, J. B. Knowles; Coun
cilmen, Shankland and Ogden.
6th Ward—Alderman, Thomberger; Council-
men, J. T. Yarborough aud Pratt.
7th Ward—Alderman, Allen ; Councilmen,
Bnrchett and Griffin.
8th Ward—Alderman, Donaldson ; Council-
men, Mitchell and D. Brien.
9th Ward—Alderman, James D. McLaughlin;
Councilmen, Thomas Olsen and P. T. Coyle.
Sixty thousand pounds of butter were shipped
from Cumberland, Maryland, to Baltimore dur
ing the last week, making more than one hun
dred aud twenty-five thousand pounds shipped
in three weeks. Butter is quoted at Cumber
land at twenty to twenty-five cents per pound.
The cholera still prevails in St. Louis, and has
•lately carried off a number of the most promis
ing young men in the city. TheBoard of Health
has again prohibited tiie sale of green vegetaoles.
and the city is undergoing a vigorous cleansing.
Ben. Wade says “ tbe proudest period of his
life was when he worked upon tiie canal as a
common laborer.” He might add that it was
the most creditable. A good laborer, in his case,
has made a very bad politician.
One hundred and forty-eight bales of new
cotton were received in Memphis on the 27th
instant. Business is improving in that city, and
cotton coming in freely.
