 Journey. '
 ALABAMA, Sept. 10, 1880.
 To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
 I promised you in my last letter to give
 you a description of a trip by wagon through
 a large county bordering on Mississippi, and
 one of the heaviest cotton raising counties of
 the oblaek belt Pickens is a very large
 county, entirely away from railroads, having
 the Tombigbee river as an outlet to Mobile
 and the Gulf of Mexico. I left Gainesville,
 in Sumter county, early Monday morning,
 August 16th, and in few minutes was riding
 along through the large cotton fields, behind a good pair of horses driven by a ight-colored
 negro named Ben. The sun had not yet risen and the ride in the early morning be-
 fore the heat of the day was simply delight full My first stopping place was to be War saw, still in Sumter county and ten miles away. On either side I rode were i'm mense fields of the great product of the South, sKing cotton" full of it's pink and white blossoms, while on the same plants l could see the large green balls ready to burst open and lower down, nearer the ground, the open balls with the white staple just peeping out, which would, in few more days exposure to the torrid rays of the Aug ust Southern sun, be ready for the pickers. Occasionally we would meet one or two darkies, who would respectfully touch their hats at sight of white gentleman, eliciting from us cheery stGood morning, uncle" in return. have noticed that as 8 rule the older negroes re- spectfully touch their hat brims when meet ing white men, while the younger ones more independently stare at the stranger as he passes. A couple of miles out we came to creek which we were compelled to ferry--a little bit of a sfcreek'' river, but deep, the ferryboat almost reaching across. few miles further on we passed gang of negroes with white overseer, working" the roads 1n a slip-shod sort of 8 way, not with the great care with which our roads north are worked and graded. Many of the roads have dr1v- en over in Alabama are execrable and severe on horses, vehicles and riders. But as most of the getting about in this country IS done on horseback or with slow OK teams and heavy wagons, it is not of so much import ance that the roads should be so well worked. 1 Then acain distances are greater than with us between towns, and the country as rule is sparsely settled by whites. By the time l ] reached Warsaw the sun was well up and get ting pretty hot, and my umbrella and thin linen suit were of good service. have worn linen clothing for some time, as with the l heavy wooIen clothes we usually wear in Con-

 A fair young mother with a crying baby in her arms sat in Silver City stage coach, says
 Nevada paper. On the opposite seat was a
 well known politician of engaging manners By and by he said: ''Let me hold your baby; perhaps can soothe him." ''Oh, no; I'm
 much obliged; you couldn't help me any," was the answer. But, he persisted, 'tyou had better let me try" "You are very kind, D said the lady at last, ''but I know you couldn't help me- for he is hungry" light seemed to dawn on the politicians mind, and he abruptly broke off the conversation. Rev. Mir. Genufiux fell down stairs last Sunday morning, with a flower vase in one
 hand, pitcher of water in the other, a lamp globe under his arm and china saucer tucked in his coat pocket. He was trying to carry all these things down stairs and he succeeded But when he got them to the bottom and his anxious wife screamed from the head of the stairs to know if he had broken anything, he took an account of stock and calmly report ed that ''he had broken everything but the Sabbath. ''The only thing" petulantly commented his careful and economical wife, ''that we could afford to break. gt01a Haaokeye
