The fanners of Sooth Caroli na have announced tbilr determina tion to hold a convention of their own mod nominate for every office candi dates in foil sympathy with the ag ricultural interests. This, we think, is a very dangerous move, and we hope that no such dictatorial and arbitrary steps will be undertaken. It will never do for the white people of the Palmetto state to divide, for it can only result io again bringing , the negro into prominence and power. It seems to ns that the far- mers ought to have enough strength in Carolina— .a they have in Georgia —to controi.the politics of that State. By sticking to the democratic party they can have their every interest protected, and at the same time pre serve the political unity of the white voters, so essential to the peace, wel fare and safety of their state. It will never do for any one class of people —it matters not how strong they may be or jnst their canae—to assume to themselves the sole control of affairs. Jdinorities also have rights, and are entitled to representation aad more especially so when the mi norities are so closely alligned with and friendly to the agricultural in terests, as are all classes in the South. It is to the interest of the Carolina farmers to make many friends as possible, instead -driving them off, as any such step as now threatened certainly will do. Every intelligent American citizen demands to have a voice in shaping the politics of bis country. a limit to all chants should be allowed to exhibit samples of their stocks on the side* walks, so that they do not Interfere with passage, or the articles display ed are not of any offensive or objec tionable character. Two or three feet adjoining the stores will not annoy pedestrians, and prove bene ficial to our merchants. Besides, it looks more like business to see the streets of a city lined with goods; snd Athens has reached that stage where she must get out of her old fogy. ways.

He gets off some of the best and most original pro ductions that appear in the Georgia papers. ‘He 'satisfactorily settles the negro question by meeting . In convention and enacting the follow- fa** I From and after the passage of this act, all petaou who are of African blood, and all persons who are in anyway mixed up with negroes, either by marriage or blood kin or oiherwiae, and all white men under the age of 160 years who are the fathers of negro children, shall be gathered up and colonized in the Btate of Datchtown.Teon., m State located in the United Stales, and ■et spsrt for said race of people. Be it further enacted that all full blood negroes shall be entitled to 50 acres of said land and a sixteen-yeor-old mule free; ali . half breeds shall be entitled to 25 acres and a blind horse. Be it farther enacted that all white men who are the fathers of mulatto children shall be entitled to thirty-nice lashes on their bare backs snd be slaves for the ne- - groes for the next 400 years, and shall be forced to make brick fo the negioes and famish their own straw same as the Jews had to make brick for old man Pharaoh in Egypt. And be it farther enacted that if any one of these aforesaid white men ever be caught outside of the State of Dutch- town, Tenu., they shall be branded in the forehead with the following lelteis, "N. D.” which means Negroes Baddy, and for the second offense made into sausage and sent North not salted. Bo it fuifier ei - acted that all laws militating against this act is hereby repealed.” From ibis act wc will soon And out who are the negroes •who mutt be separated and that soon; w pack up all that comes under the tc’; for to Duclitown you must go, and you had better take all you have along with you for it may be a long time before Moaes comes after you. THE FUTURE OF COTTON. Ten years from today farm lands in this section will be a more valua ble possession than -all the maau— faculties, mines and railroads that can be built. The demand for the great Southern staple ia increasing most rapidly, and the supply is inadequate to consumption. Last year the largest cotton yield ever known was made, and still the supply is short. As a consequence, for the first time in years our farmers received a living price for their crop, and the prospect is that next year will witness a still further advance. Bat do not let this hope indace oar farmers to retain to the old order of things and depend on raising cotton to bay farm supplies. They now have their heads aboTe water, and must keep them so. With your cribs and barns filled with home-raised grain and forage you can bid defiance to trusts and combinations; but when you are forced to sell your cotton for what it will bring, yon will soon find yourself again delnged. Let the Alliance investi gate this matter, and urge their members to combine and make their farms self-sustaining. One two-story bouse oo Foundry street <M rxtendinn heck to Coving** A Macon dailmed.

Camp bell Wallace, the chairman of the State Boad Commission, has decid ed to resign his position and retire to private Ufe. If Senator Ingalls will come down Sooth and' make his shot-gnn-and- torch speech to the negroes, he will discover that lynch’ law is not alto gether confined to black incendiaries and outlaws.
