The editor of this paper is thank¬

received the past week from true
and tried friends. Wo acknowledge
our faults, but tho writer is generally
found bustling for the interest of his j
county, and should not be judged
too harshly.
The Albany Herald strongly on
dorses lion. 0. B Stevens of Terrell
for commissioner of agriculture. Tbe
Herald is on the right truck this time,
if some people do say that it is trying
to “hedge” its work of 1802. If Mr.
Stevens aspires to s ml office he has
a strong supporter in the Herald and
the Monitor.
Tho Monitor does not like to
stick its noes into other people’s
business, but it is satisfied that it
would bo to the interest of several of
onr citizens to run their land off into
town lots and sell them at reasonable
prices, build houses and rent them at
reasonable figures, and thereby in¬
duce good citizens and make onr
town what it should be. At least
fifty neat, comfortable dwellings

The bashi bazouks ivre to the Turk¬

Russian. The Cossacks are, however,
immeasurably tlieir superiors in all that
goes to make the soldier. Bashi bazouks
are almost without discipline. Their
courage is that of the wild beast seek¬
ing its prey, and once on the warpath
they are merciless. It was the bashi
bazouks who by their monstrous cruel¬
ties gave such point to the pen and
tongue of Mr. Gladstone at the time of
the “Bulgarian atrocities. ’’ Bashi ba-
znmk means “hot brained.” Their mot¬
to is “Kill, kill I” to which they freely
add “and rob.” Their weapons are tha
long lance, such as is used by the Cos¬
sack, the saber, two or three pistols and
as many murderous looking duggers.—
