The Homer choir are preparing their hymns for the Sunday-school celebration, by practicing at difler eat intervals. Shakespeare says, “music hath charms to soothe the soul of the savage!” Now, if there is one of these things in Banks, the great poet never said, but he does leave a doubt as to whether he believed some of the yelling and acute pieces in time music ever reached the soul of the savage, for he would perhaps have termed it neither music, feeling nor taste. It was the pleasure ot file writer and Judge Ilill, Saturday, to visit Maysville. Business was lively in all branches. S >me improvements going on. The Comer Bros, were doing a lively business. This firm, it would seem, controls the bulk of the trade on the Banks side. Its proprietors, book-keeper and sales men are kind and accommodating, which bespeaks the popularity and large business of the firm. The oth er merchants do a fair business. Carr & Bacon, it would seem, lak es the lead on the Jackson side. All in, Maysville has a kind and clever class of people The 4th of July euiertainmenf of the Bushville Literary Club last Thursday night, was enjoyed by the large attendance ot over 1,000 peo ple, The orations, dialogues, etc., were delivered with ability, and received marked attention. Music was furnished by lhe-cor net-band from Harmony Grove. The exercise went on until a late hour. At this period the gather ing returned to their homes. Good order prevailed throughout the exercises. I.usiiville is noted for her advan tages in literary pursuits. She hat / library fully equipped, it not su perior to any in this section.

County Alliance Lecture by Col. J, 11. Turner, A valuable and interesting meet ing of the county alliance was held atfhecourthoti.se Saturday. Col. Tinner, state lecturer, was persuasive ami cnrmuamiiiik i . his add less, and other tilings said: “The time is soon C; ruing when every man will be called upon to help ns down the monopolies. Why should not the law vi rs, met chants and eyety oppressed class help ns, for t ur interests are one? The great issre between monopolies and the farmers is now formed and we want everybody to help. The monop oiies have made an effort to rob this country rf tr< ru three to four millions of dollars, and why not every man help as to correct them? Let the merchant say to the urnminer, away; the farm ers of this comity are already oppressed and they can no longer keep up the middle man and speculators, we will buy direct lrom the factories. Let the lawyers say to the corporations and i heir agents in our courts, away with your combines, \ou are C’ippiing our farmers; wouldn’t it giveihema blank eye? lint our lawyers too often oater. The object of the jute bagging trust n w is to keep tbecotton begging from being permaufut. They will offer ey ery iiiduc> meut, bnt w must stand .he tinner, tor we will iiv# upon this vidorv, or we "id die fiom thedefeat. The liter, hant or giisner who keep jute bagging ia against ns, and this wiil test the mailer. We are going to see what kind of fruit iho. people of this country Pear, if you were to see a mania a mud-hole wi uld ) oil ! eip ary to stand by and wish he could get out? We want men who will work for and die by princi pis. That Mil.-Alliance which lags hack ami waits for others to make tests shviulif ! e discarded; they discourage Oihein and ate not worthy t>f delegates in tfce county alii&nee. I belie v s enough cotton baggiug has already been ordered to secure victory for ns. Now the edhors over the state are very anxious about our going into poii tics. We will never go into pcliiios any further than our interests de mands, Thirty years ago one-half of the property oi the Railed States be longed io tue farmers. Now only one luuiib belongs to them and they should only pay oue-fourih the taxes, but iu stead of a uniformity of taxation, we jay lour-fifths ot the taxes. Then, .educational, Agricultural And Mining Kewi Can we sit rfful xL<i sa v wo woi lub •! nothing to Jo with politic-? Nay, m j must meet it in the logika’ ure. We lavor the ••Olive Bill” as introJne-J in the legislature and. ifti’c m Mi that Dr. Felton should have introduc ed almost the ome fciil some time ng l , ; and now' has flopped over so smidenh ? I don’t mean to say he wai: taken r.pou the luorntaiii end shown the king dom of the earth, cut i; is curb us. We will find out when the vote is tak en who is ior ns We need moie education as to iiutl ligent voting among our lartuns and we mast have. There has been more study about our goveiiinun; among the tarmers since ©or organist ion than any penned of our nistury. , All the societies and clubs com of farmers are going to combi tie. We want to consolidate the West *at Northwest and then we can eject a president. We are going to lay aide men who ride into office of the seces sion endorsement of Davis. We want to make intelligent voters of i- pnbli. cans and democrats. We must wateh the nominations, because we fcnv d al most to hold our nose to vole lot the nominees sometimes. We must put men in office whose interests is allied with ours. Like Joe Brown, if our interests is iron, jute baggiug, etc., we must vote that way. Let us stand by principle and suc ceed as the combinations have.” now the Jurual indotses ti.e above, so far as to knocking out the middle man in everything the fanner needs. This should have been done font; ago, but for the monopolists of the republi can party, who w r e nurtured and backed by its strength. Not e; e toot of jute bagging has ever been couiroii ed by democratic government. Col. Turner says thirty five years ago the fanners owned one-ha! 1 of the property ot this country, now they own but one-fourth,• and pay 4-s:h’s the taxes, but he fails to give the cause more than say “we wili u it elect too a who ride to office of secession.” Avery flimsy expression fur so pro found an issue. Col Turner need not have gone so far back as thirty-fiye years to find a hiding place in the decrease of the far mers wealth of the South. He could have found a place in the days of Giantism in the New York Wall Street Bepabliean loobies, when they became so rich to the impoverished far mers of the South, to lurther degrade the poor d—ls, they passed the Civil II ghts Bill—then came on the days ot reconsttuction with the Southern farmer. They did not neod Col. Tui ner’s advice “to educate the voter and make intelligent voters of democrats and republicans and watch the nomi nee ,f The par y line was drawn; the Southern farmer rallied to the front s*id cast his democratic vote ia the presence of a big burly negro who had been appointed change ot the ballot box by the republican party. Tlteie and then it was the Southern farmer voted the democratic ticket to protect life, home and property. While the white carnet bagger and negro combined, “vered intelligently aui watched the nominee,” as Cui. C urn er terms it. But, Col. Turner will say to day that wa- a lime, if he voted, he did not vote •'intelligently.” This is when the Southern farmer lost his wealth to a great extent. Li it Col. Turner nevor ahtuScs to tue cause ot secession and why the hroutli want od a division and separate government which prompted her to eleo J ©if Davis and biiug on the rebellion that he eaii,-. “seceseion.” In this the farmer and the whole Somh lust her wealth to the greatest amount in the emaucipt tion ot the negro to gratify the “intel ligent democrat and republican voter” of the republican party.
