“ Cotton on the Brain.”—The Southwest
ern Georgia correspondent of the Macon Tele
qraph gets off the following on the prevailing
mania for cotton planting. Our farmers have
got it on the •brain “ very bad,” but we trust
they will recover sufficient to see their true in
terest before planting time comes around :
Grafton—* 1 Good morning, Capt. Scott.”
Capt. Scott—“ It’s gone np to 27 cents, 1
see, and still rising.”
G.—“ Pleasant day.”
Capt. B.—‘‘Haven’t got enough hands this
year, but I’ll plant for two hundred bales.”
G.—“ How’6 your family ?”
Capt. B.—“ I thiuk it’ll bring 25 cents a
ponnd next year.”
G.—“ Any news with you ?”
Capt. B.—“ If the worms don’t interfere, I'll
raise at least two hundred and fifty.”
G.—“ We have had bad weather lately.”
Capt. B.—“ I’m goiDg to use plenty of fertil
izers and improved seed.”
G.—“ All well at home ?” *
Capt. S.—“ Bacon is rising; the niggers have
killed all my hogs, but I think I’ll have enough
to get through.”
G.—“ You are looking a little older than when
I saw you last.”
Capt. S.—“ We ought to raise a bale to the
acre in this county, but the niggers don’t work
like they used to.” <
G.—“ I won’t plant much corn this year: I
can bnv two acres of corn with one of cottOD,
and it don’t pay, you see.”
Capt. B.—“ Think Congress will turn us out
again ?”
G.—“ We never will raise as much as we
used to. The demand is greater, the supply
less, and, therefore, we are bound to get a good
price.” .
Though an honest discharge of one’s duty
may, for the time, offend those it opposes, vet
it will at last be justified and admired even by
the very men who suffer from it.
The hnman heart is like a feather bed—it must
be roughly bandied, well shaken, and exposed
to a variety of turns, to prevent H becoming
hard and knotty.

It is said to bo the most effective cure for the diseases

a sensati >n in the medical-world, and its discovery
will be hailed with delight by thousands who have
been hopelessly afflicted.
‘•lt is core effective than the Hot Springs of Arkan

of health unrelieved have been curd permanently by
its use. It is the discovery of one of the most emi

whose faith in its curative qualities is eufficiently at
tested by thousands. We have been assured by gen

have seen cures effected iu the line of diseases it pro

of ifie greatest research and highest standing. We,
therefore, do not hesitate to endorse to the confidence

ECONOMY!
Time, Money and Labor Saved.
THE AUTOMATIC CLOTHES WASHER
AND BOILER.
This most useful invention has been introduced
into this city by the undersigned, who guarantees the
performance of ail that is claimed forjt. The cost is
comparatively .trifling— BlX DOLLARS —when is
considered the amount of time, money and labor saved
by its use.
This Boiler operates upon purely philosophical prin
ciple s.
It is self-acting, and dispenses entirely with labor
and the wear of clothes. ,
The hot suds and steam, by the action of fire, are
driven up through tubes, poured upon the clothes,
and foroed through the fabric with astonishing rapid
ity, cleansing it perfectly without any rubbing. It has
been thoroughly tested, and pronounced nnequaled as
a Clothes Washer by those who have used it.
All fabrics, from the finest laces to the bed blanket,
can be washed perfectly and with ease, without the
aid of the iuhbing-boaTd. For Flannels it is invalua-
as the rubbing, rolling and pressing process must
neifessariiy full them more or lees.
■ It truly a laker aud datax** •nfltijj eW&Sj#®*-'
Washing will ho longer be"a hardship', and washing
day no longer a terror and a dread to housewives.
The invention can bp uspd in any boiler, and th
low jiripe of ihe ar'iole places it within the reach of
every family.
The saving in the wear of clothes will very soon pay
for the outlay.
It is estimated that 200 to 300 gallons of boiled suds
pass through the clothes in thirty minutes; this being
the longest tlcie required for cleansing a boiler full of
clothes.
I refer, confidently, to the following named gentle
men, who have seen the Automatic Washer and
Boiler in operation;
Rev. James S. I amjjk, E. R. Sphneidbb, Dr. W.
B. Wspi-s and James W. Meredith, Esq.

Guarantied to be equal to nnv fertil'zer heretofore
used, not excepting genuine Peruvian Guano. By
various tests made by experienced planters of cotton,
it has bcon conclusively proven that an application,
pound for pound, alongside Peruvian, produces fully
as good results in favorable seasons, and In dry
weather the crop stands the drought much better. It
has also been demonstrated that in every ease it makes
A GOOD STAND, HItOWs OFF QUICKLY, MA
TURES THE CROP Earlier and PICKS OUT
BETTER than where none Is applied, and MAKES
A BETTER and HEAVIER STAPLE.
When applied at the rate of 260 pounds per aero, it
will make two good successive crops, thus demonstra

suits by listing, the tame as is done with Perm ian.
DIRECTIOHB:
Rub the seed with the Guano before planting, and
use not less than 150 pounds per acre in the drill, IN
DIRECT CtINTACT WITH THE SEED. The
application can bn increased to 600 pounds WITH
