GARNEE'S, MISS.
- FIattering Outlook for the Future
Farmers and Laborers Both DO
ing WeIi-Ua aiming for
Congress.

From an Occasional Correspondent of the Appeal.
GARNER, Miss. July 31.-Our present
outlook to the future is very hattering regard
ing the farming interest, Notwithstanding the
continued rains IN June. The farmers are
now busy pulling fodder, cutting hay, ETC.
The corn crop is above an average, and the
cotton promises to be. Good deal more corn
and less cotton planted than has been for
several years, Good many farmers say they
will have corn TO sell; don't think there will
be any sale for 1t, as everyone will raise
enough to do them. The negroes have worked
well, and have bought very little on a credit;
they seem to realize what economy Is, and
are practicing it. One reason Is there has
been no political excitement this year to at
tract them from their crops, and another Is
they, as a general thing, ever since the war,
have been In debt, and don't exactly feel
free as long as they have an honest debt
hanging over them. | heard one the other
day say he had never been free, and his ex
PLANTATION was he had been in debt since
freedom, and could never get enough ahead
to pay out The merchants have done better
this than for several years doing better
cash, and a less credit business. The tenn
perance movement has done great deal of
good here; several hard drinkers joined, and
are sticking to their pledge. Our county
convention meets on the third of August to
select delegates to send to the congressional
convention, which meets at Sardis on the if
teenth They will be instructed for Man
ming, who will be returned to congress by a
large majority at the election ia November
next. There Is a good deal Of speculation as
to who will be the next Presidential NOM
inees in 1880. We will go dime on it that
Mr. Thurman is the Democratic, Grant the
Radical, and Ben. Butl8r the National Green
ack-mongrel- whatucallem nominee. Z.

nected with an International Sunday school
convention for West Tennessee. We are

ganzation Is progressing. East Tennessee
has large number of associations SUCCESS

under the same banner, and much good be
accomplished. The history and workings of
the enterprise will be set forth at this meet
ing august GOTH by competent speakers.

BATESVILLE, MISS.
x Warm Welcome to Hon Van H. Man
ming. the Choice OF his People for
Reelection to Congress.

From an Occasional Correspondent of the Appeal
BATEsvILLE, August Hon. Van. H.
Manning, our representative In congress
from this district, arrived in our town yester-
day afternoon, and was warmly and welcome
ly received by the citizens. 1t was only
few minutes after his arrival before he was
visited by many of his friends, who insisted
on him addressing his constituents at this
place before leaving town; to which he
agreed, and set last night as the time to
make his address. Notwithstanding the
short notice, a very good attendance of ladies
and gentlemen assembled at the college hall,
where Colonel Naming, in eloquent terms,
thanked the citizens for the kind and courte-
GUS manner in which he was received, and in
d brief, but entertaing speech, gave an ac-
count Of his stewardship while in congress as
the peoples public servant, and discussed
with ability the financial question which
seems to agitate the minds OF the public. 1t
was the intention of the Batesville cornet
band to serenade Colonel Manning upon his
arrival, but they were disappointed on ac-
count of several of the members being absent
on a fishing excursion. ~
