Independents, Greenbackers, Nationals, etc,
the Executive Committees OF the Democratic
Conservative party in the several counties are

acting these disorganizing schemes, and for
perfecting their organization. To this end

have the questions involved in the canvass

cooperation The local comm ittee4 should IN
wife such Democratic speakers as they prefer,
and the latter are urgently solicited to comply
when called upon.

detrimental IN the highest degree to the inter

arisen IN consequence OF it, a committee was
appointed to wait upon Capt. III. NJ. Dixon tht.

reasons for the ground of his refusal which
were not deemed satisfactory to the great as

couraged (some for partisan reasons and

significant extract:

A GLORIOUS RAIN

that fell in this region on Thursday last is the
real inspiration of this letter. 1t was the first
good rain in many weary weeks, and while a
great deal more is needed, this much will be
worth thousands Of dollars to the agricultural
interests OF Lowndes. For month, a terrible
drought has weighed upon our section of the
State like an unlimited guest at dinner set
for limited number, and corn especially of
the field crops, with vegetables, is seriously
injured. All nature was sad-the beautiful
fower-yards and vegetable gardens dried up
men fretful and disgusted-women quarrel
ing with their husbands-the children
sick; everywhere dust, little business. and
stock that roamed the commons for subsist-
ence coming home at curfew painting for water
Bless God for the rain! One sometimes feels
that it is interfering with His ever-wise. pre-
arranged physical laws to pray for rain, but
We can honestly thank Him when he opens
the windows of heaven, and the hills and val
leys and the dumb inhabitants thereof lift up
their heads in acknowledgment OF the mex
pressible beneficence.
