This does not agree with the state
ment Of the receipts at all the ports,
bnt cannot be Jar from right, as
the crop began to move nearly two
weeks earlier than last year, and the
enormous amount moving by rail last
year was not probably counted when
the report was made up.
At all events cur farmers can sec
that the crop is beiDg delivered too
fast to sustain the pIicr, owing, TO
doubt, to the fine season they have had
for picking and packing. The &C
counts Of cotton jams" reach rs from
ell sections; the railroads and steamers
are doing all they can to meet the de-
MAIDS upon them for transportation,
but is it a healthy traffic which re-
quires the business OF year to be
done in four months? Would it not
be better for all, that people should
not hurry their crops forward SO fast?

Bravery Of Southern ladies


Our friend Il. ". sends Us tie fol
lowing very Interesting account OF the
chase and capture OF bear on IAst

Yesterday, while Mrs. joel Hines, Il
resident OF Spring Garden, was enjoy

upon her premises Of huge aGtt luUu-
sjrors bear. Nothing dauuted, she, IN
the absence of the male reSldtn S, AMI
actuated by the herCiom CT oIGcn
times, narsnaIed her canine deIeiu-
ers and Immediately began chase. Al
tex an exciting run OF about hall (.
mile, bruin was made to take a tree.
Mr. Christopher Jones being ell
cOuntercd IN the chase, came ~ TIE
rescue Of Mrs. Hines. Soon tie Hove
spread all over the HcigubuIAUou,
and soon men, women and children
were under arms, al ANXIOUS ioE
shot. the ladies exhibited more
bravery than the me-. A15er several
uelghUOrs had repaired to The spot
where the bear WIS freed, some i've
or SIX shots were tired before he
could be Thought to the ground. Ih4
bear being dead, a council o. NuI
was held and 1t was decided that III
asmuch as the hcroi>m Ui the ladies
surpassed the achievements OF the
men, that the hide, which WG5 en-
sldered as very valuable, be resented
TO Mrs. Hines as 4 just tsL-utC 10 lles
noble herOism and bravery.
The quiet OF our neIghOOrnO0t vas
much disturbed by the presence O

Many surmlses were made as to his

thought him an advertisement Tor the

roost where the pigeons congregate in such un-
told millions, is called "Betsey River nesting"
The tract is about sixteen miles long and three
wide. Every bough is occupied by dozen
nests and hundred birds, and from morning
till night the air whirrs with ceaseless wings
going and coming. Between two hundred
and fifty and four hundred men have been
engaged for over six weeks constantly killing
and trapping. AS the old birds leave or are
destroyed, as many young ones take their
places There are three regular "Aights" a
day-two "tom-Aights' and one "hen.hight." :"
At early dawn the male birds set out flying to
the east and north to seek breakfast of seeds
and berries, ten, twenty or fifty miles away,
and by six or halfpast six the sky is black
with the departing birds. An hour later not
bird is to be seen, but toward eight o'clock
the squadrons return in clouds. The shotgun
and the net are the principal weapons used
by the hunter. The biggest catch Of the year
has been eight hundred birds, though it is on
record that one trapper secured nearly thir-
teen hundred at one strike This probably
would have been exceeded by gentleman, a
few days ago, when he struck into flight so
thick that the birds raised nets, stakes and all,
breaking the meshes and flying off by hun
dreds. Some idea of the extent of the opera
tions may be formed when tits said that prob
ably thousand bushels each of salt and corn
have been used in preparing the feed beds
this season. The New York State Sports
mems Association has taken 10000 or $4,000
live birds from Frankfort, and other compa-
nies as MANY or more dead ones.

THE "WHITE LEAGUE"

An attempt is making to organizea "White
League" in Louisiana. Every white man in
parish is asked to become member; if he
refuses he is told that henceforth he must ex-
pect to be treated as negro. Happily some
of the leading newspapers of the State are
speaking out boldly against the organization.
The New Orleans Times declares that party
organizations, founded on mere race distnc-
tions, are unwise and inexpedient. and that in
closely contested election it will be difficult
to prevent the hot-headed zealots of the
"White League" from bringing on conflict
which majority of the people would deplore
and from the results of which only the peace
able and industrious voters and property-hold-
ers would suffer. Nor would this be all.
Just now sentiment is abroad in the North
which is demanding reform in the Southern
State Governments. The Baltimore Ameri'
can, an influential Republican newspaper,
says: "The honest people of all parties are
ready to compel the expulsion OF men like
Moses and Durell from the places which they
have disgraced. AS far as the Federal power
can be used in the Southern States it must be
thrown in the scale against thieves and plum
derers, no matter whether they claim to be
Republicans or not If man known to be
rascal is a candidate for any responsible
place, the Federal oficeholders must not give
him their personal, much less their official sup
port If the result is the election of the Dem
ocratic candidates, there will be no complaint
provided they prove to be capable, honest and
efficient officers" But, the same paper adds,
"any attempt to coerce men into voting for
particular persons by threats or violence or
personal prescription will be met with re-
sistance which will not cease until the politi-
cal party which employs such methods shall
have been utterly routed" The signs of the
times are good, the prospect for reform is
comparatively bright. There is no room,
however, for doubling that indiscriminate op-
position to the negro by confessedly "white
mans party" involving the practical refusal
to recognize the rights and privileges which
the laws give him, would ALLEVIATE from the
Southern minorities the sympathies of their
countrymen, and place them in as unenviable
a position as that which they occupied when
the story of the ku-klux outrages shocked the
moral sense of the nation. Let US leave well
enough alone Charleston Ne0s.
