CROP ITEMS.

In the coast region Of Alabama
and Mississippi the crops were new
or more promising than at present:
All the fruits will make a good yield
excepting the pear--that bias been
cut short 10 some extent by the
slug it has now about disappeared,
leaving with us an encouraging
prospect for a pretty full pear
crop.
We have nothing from Louisiana
this week, consequently We suppose
her crops are getting along all right.
Texas is jubilant over her prospects.
The grasshoppers have entirely dis
appeared, and the season could not
be more favorable. She will have
little fruit. Northern Arkansas is
complaining seriously Of the army
worm. The army worm is worse
in Tennessee than in any Of the
other States.
From some points along the north
crn border Of Alabama and Missis-
sippi we have reports this week that
are rather discouraging. There will
be but little fruit, and the caterpil-
lar or army worm is making sad
work with cotton and corn. 1t is
not the cotton caterpillar, but the
true army worm peculiar to the
prairies Of the North. The ground
is completely covered with it in
many places so abundant Is it as to
stop heavy traius at steep grades on
some of the railroads.
The crops in this section are look
ing as promising as could be desired
There has never been in the memory
Of the living finer stand of cotton.
Corn is looking well. Wheat is
good, though less than the usual
quantity was sown. Oats promise
good yield. Prospect for fruit good.
= Washington Gagettc.
More cotton has been planted in
this section this year than ever be-
fore, all of which, we understand,
looks fourishing, giving promise Of
a heavy yield. In riding through
the wheat fields, we found them
looking much better than we expect
ed. Our opinion is the yield of
wheat in this section, this year, will
be considerably over half crop in
some localities, and fully an average
one in others. Corn looks remarka-
oly we'll The clover crop in this
md adjoining counties presents a
very fine and luxuriant appearance
md will soon be ready for the NOW

ed to the homestead temptation for
the sake Of a wife and children"
/ cannot obey the impulse Of my
heart and write to you otherwise.
Allow me further to say that you do
not properly estimate the spirit of
our wives and children. Do nottell
me of ''the necessity" to maintain
them in the style of past habits and
associations. If these habits in the
past were worth anything to them
or to you, or to the State,
they were honest habits, # these
associations can be maintained ONLY
by trick, depend upon it, they
had better, for all concerned, be
brokcn off. My friend, yGu nor |,
nor any one, can over estimate the
spirit, the real t.eroism, Of t.t,
women. 1t yet remains grand amid
the wreck Of larger fortunes than
we had here in Georgia. In Gods
name let us preserve it. No true
Southern woman, none to our Geor>
gia manner born, who have not
about them the aroma of Goldfish,
who would not rather be known as
the wife of an honest and proud man,
even though clothed in the habila-
ments Of poverty, than to be recog~
nized as parasite, accidentally
fastened upon the body of ill-gotten
wealth.
There is future bright with
promise for us all who are worthy
of the heritage Of our manhood, but
black with eternal infamy to those
who attempt 70 ape the ethics Of an
other and a colder cline.
With sincere regards. yours truly,

A TERROR TO POLITICAL PAR
TIES,

The farmers movement seems to
have paralyzed the Republican par
ty Of illinois, while that movement is
vet in its infancy. Next month
twenty-eight Circuit and two SUI
preme Court judges are to be elected
and thus far the Republicans of three
districts only have ventured TO make
nominations. Both the Republican
and Democratic parties appear to be
afraid to move lest they should give
offence to the Oranges, and the lat
ter have not yet shown their hands.
1t is supposed that they will either
make nominations for judges, or
that they will adopt and elect such
candidates of either party, or such
self announced candidates, as may
best suit their views. There seems
to be strong probability that when
their organization shall have been
more matured and cemented, they
will formally enter the field ofgener-
al politics. If they undertake to
choose judges next month why should
they not also undertake in Novem-
Der next to dictate the county treas
urers, clerks, survey who are to
be elected 7 The Chicago Tribune
appears TO think that n year hence,
when fully organized, they will as
sumo to control the election Of both
branches of the Legislature and
members OF Congress, and that they
will select men not because of their
advocacy of the Fifteenth Amend
meut, nor of their loyalty during the
war, but because of their supposed
fidelity to farmers interests.

TO THE FARMER.
If YOU want a MOWER or REAPER at all,
Won undoubtedly want the best, and the fact
that there are now in use in this country alone,
10000 Buckeye Mowers aud Reapers, many
more than of any other machine OF the class,
90 900 of them made and sold annually, and
the demand for them increasing every year, Is,
we think, conclusive evidence that the Buckeye
Mower and Reaper is the best machine extant,
and consequently is the machine you should
have.
1t has two drive wheels; gearing, simple and
complete; is eompactly and strongly built; the
knife being in front of the driye-wheels quiets
all apprehension of the driver falling in front of
it. Whatever else may occur in the form of an
accident, that will not-never hast cannot
Its durability, capacity. lightness Of draft, and
in all other qualities required, is unrivaled.
The SWEEPSTAKES THRESHER and
CLEANER enjoys the same worldwide repu-
tation as the "Buckeye,' as a Mower and
Reaper. The manufacturers being still deter
mined 10 keep it ahead of all competitors, are
year by year adding such Improvements as the
