The entei tain merit by Miss West’s class last Friday evening was quite a success and much enjoyed by the audieuce. The exercises lasted about two hours, and an audience was never better pleased in Harmony Grove. There was no failures by any of the class, and for the reason it is impos siple to say which piece and who re ! cited the best. Miss Nellie Harbei in her impersonation of “Mollie” caught the crowd in an all round Lway. The pantomimes were very | fine indeed and much enjoyed. The ! little girls recited beautifully, and did their parts to perfection. The music by the orchestra and Miss Power’s class was fine and much en joyed. .“The Bridge,”a pantomime by the young ladies, was beautifully rendered, The pantomime, “Jesus Lover of my Soul,” by Miss Wes*, was almost perfect, The “Kitchen Clock,” by Mrs. Thurmond was highly enjoyed bv the audience and was excellent. The play “Courtship under Difficul ties” was good. Marvelous Results. From a letter written by Rev. J.

No disease leaves its Victims so debilitated, useless, sleepless, nerveless, as LaGrippe. Mr. D. W.

I had not slept for more than two months except by the use of nar cotics that stupefied toe, but gave me no rest. I was only conscious of intense mental weakness, agonizing bodily pain and the fact that I was hourly growing weaker. When lit this condition. 1 commenced using ,Dt. Miles’ Restorative Nervine.

' ~—* v i have been requested to tell the reader® of the Echo <f silver as mon ey in Mexico And its effect. I hope I may be pardoned if I go beyond the letter of the request. The peo ple m Georgia and the whole coun try are as- much divided on silver and gold today as they were on sla very and secession thiity years ago; and the division will exist long afUr all the silver mines are worked out. This country can not look upon Mexico as a criterion or as an exam ple of free silver or a single standard country in forming the laws for a great c Jinmerci.il natjion like this, nor should we try to please. England in making otir financial laws. Be cause; first. Mexico is not a selling or manufacturing counjtry. Second, England is a manufacturing country, old and established. The same in France snd Germany.) They have the. same interest at stake that we have in our finances, add the wealth of the three named countries will be used against any money legislation of this country that will tend to in - crease price of silver or to benefit the export trade of the United States. They will drain our public treasury of gold and e,’ise financial panics and claim that they are afraid of American financial legislation. 'England, France and Germany will continue to increase their export trade with the New World as long as our money laws lemain un changed. Silver ja the circulating medium in Mexico. It is owiv worth iis market value, uncovered by any gov- eminent obligation. The ‘bullion is coined sit the.pleasure of the govern ment as to the liir if; ;t charge beit g made for mintage. The dollar sim ply Ims the seal of the republic on it and stamped Un Peso “one weight” or “one standard weight.” The dol lar is always worth its face value, for its face or body is only so -many grains of silver moulded into con venient size and shape that may be used as an exchange for debts, tax or produce, with' the republic’s seal on it as,authority, ‘Mexican silver is used the world oveT. The seamtul of the American and many foreign navies in Chinese and Japanese w aters are- often' paid off iu Mexican silver. Millions of it is used in China and Japan and oth er count! ies, But strange to say a Mexican dollar could not be passed in Jackson county for its face or bullion value except for curiosity. The government of Mexico is now prosperos, So are the educated peo ple. Mexican government bonds are good, Interests are paid. There is no financial or commercial depres sion in the country and has not been in two years and doubtless longer —I have only been there two years The people whom I call educated are the Spanish or mixed portion of the population. The lower class, or Indians, are in a deplorable condi tion, but the silver standard lias not caused it and will not help them out. Mexico has a protective tariff, ami necessarily a tariff for revenue There is a very light duty on ma chinery and a very heavy dyjy on all kinks of provisions. There is plenty of iron in Mexico to make their machinery, but little suitable soil to produce their provisions, and, unlike Texas they have no water to irrigate the dry soil. A cheaply made No. 8 cooking I stove sells irom 4d to 50 dollars cash. Ham is worth 48 to 50 cents per pound; eggs 50c doz,; butter 80c to $1 per pound. The best Mexican horses 20 to 30 dollars; mules, small, I*2 to 15, large, 25 to 50 dollars; don keys 0 to 10 dollars. Corn and wheat ;6to 8 cents per pound. Hogs can : not be raised on account of the scar j city of corn. There is a heavy dutv ;on wheat and corn and all kinds of i provisions. j There is not a railroad iu Mexico :in the bands of a receiver. Not a | bank has failed in two years. There is one national bank and the I.on ! don tfc Mexican bank and several state banks. Notional bank bills are good where presented. London tfc Mexico bills are boycotted by many i state banks and are not good in many p’aces. State batik bills are not good, as a rule, outside of the native slate, with little exception. During tbe Atlanta exposition i j asked several wealtbf Mexicans why ; , hey did not participate in the exhi bit) i)i or attend the ’air. The i;i --1 variable reply was *lt is too expen sive. We eon’t pay two dollars for ! one dollars wort It of pleasure. If you Americans will make our “peso” Worth even Toots, we will educate 4* • A our children in' ths; States uiul buy all of our goods there.” The French, German and Efigli h ship very inferior goods to Mexico, and sell thehi cheap, and the goods made in the States can not be sold for the price of the cheap European product. I The advance in silver will be a I boom to American export trade, and necessaily make money more plenti ful at home; give a better demand for raw .material to be manufactured at home and shipped abroad* There are many things that should be in the St. Louis and Chicago platforms. According to the writer's humble opinion, if I may express it, the United Slates and Treasury notes should be canceled as fast as redeemed at the Treasury* thereby preventing American and foreign money kings from repeatedly syste matically withdrawing the gold from the Treasury; doing away with the habit of selling bonds and paying million as interest. Repeal the law requiring the Secretary of the Treas ury to keep on hand ohe hundred million iu gold to redeem these United States and Treasury notes Increase the silver circulation. Call In all gold and paper money of all kinds of denomination less than ten dollars. It will take several years to redeem ail the United State* and Treasury notes and during the same time the silver and national bank circulation could and would not be increased, and the circulation would not be cramped.
