a Ssventy-five Dollar Goat.

One Of them was a stockman from western
Texas named Bob Gazely, and the other was
an old Galvestonian named Colonel William
GrIswold. ThOy were talking about stock.

impresslvely:
II tell you what colonel. there is more
money In goats than IN any other critter that
eats Texas grass. People will keep on raising
fine horses and cattle, losing money by il,
you can shake a stick at" and he went on TO
tell Of the rapid increase, the price Of goat
skins, etc.
"You are right" replied Griswold. II am
goat man myself I've got a goat in my
yard right now that would not part with for
-eventy-tive dollars"
"He must be fine animal He Is half An.
CORA, reckon. l must see him."
Come along, then"
After they had druuged about an hour they
reached the residence of the Galveston ian
The goat was tied up in an clubhouse. The
western Texas man looked at the goat with q
bewildered air.
There amt no Angora In that goat"
There is money in him for all that" re-
sponded the owner.
The stockman felt the animal all over, look
Ell at the texture OF his hair, and then said:
II can't see any points that goat has got over
any other goat. Did you say you paid seven
ty-five dollars for that scruby'
That goat cost me seventy-fve dollars and
expect to get my money back"
"Well, you couldn't get it out OF me-"
81 am not trying 20 get It out Of you. but
hope TO get It out OF the goat But I'll tell you
csnoidly, IL you had chawed up my vest peck
ct with seventy five dollars in 1t, like that goat
did, I'D have IL out of you some way or ether"
Then the stOckman caught hold of his own
vest and laughed until q crowd began to gather.

Growing Old.

1t is solemn thought connected
with middle life, that life's last bust
ness is begun in earnest; and it is
then, midway between the cradle
and the grave, that man begins to
marvel that he let the days of youth
go by so half enjoyed. It is the
pensive autumn feeling; it is the SEN
sation of half sadness that we ex.
perience when the longest day of the
year is past. and every day that fol
lows is shorter, and the light faint
or, and the feeble shadows tell that
nature is fastening with gigantic
footsteps to her winter grave. So
does man look back upon his youth.
When the first gray hairs become
visible, when the unwelcome truth
fastens itself on the mind that man
is no longer going hill, but down,
and that the sun is always wester-
ing, he looks back on things behind.
When we were children We thought
as children. But now there lies be
fore US manhood, with its earnest
work, and the old age, and the
grave, and then home. There is a
second youth for man, better and
holier than the first, if he will look
on, and not look back. g

The Cotton Crop.

Bradstreet's" of September Sd
contains the most complete and al
the same time the most unfavorable
report of the cotton crop we have
yet seen. 1t is made up from reports
received from S66 correspondents
residing in every important cotton
growing section in the South, is very
full, and seems to give a fairly accu.
rate view of the present condition
of the crop. We give the following
summary:
1.-THE condition of the cotton crop
in the several States, as compared
with the crop a year ago, on the
basis of our correspondents replies
in the counties, after careful compu-
tation on the basis of yield, is as fol-
lows: In North Carolina and vir-
ginia, 25 per cent. worse than last
year; South Carolina, % per cent.
worse; Georgia and Florida, "a per
cent. worse; Alabama, 16 per cent.
worse; Mississippi, 26 per cent.
worse; Louisiana, 26 per cent. worse;
Arkansas, A per cent. worse, and
Tennessee, 43 per cent. worse. The
above was calculated by counties,
and points to an average condition
of the plant of ~ per cent. worse
than last year,

sation Of constables in Charlton

thorize Jeremiah Tootle of Tatnall,

El Paso, Texas, has a population
of 1000 Americans and 500 Next
cans. The town is surrounded by q
rich valley and agricultural country,
an excellent climate, where malarial
complaints are unknown. While
living is not much higher, wages are
almost double what is paid in the
East. Improvements are being push
ed forward as fast as workmen can
be employed to do the work.

President Garfield Dead.

q
1t is with profound sorrow that
we announce the death of President
JAMES ABRAM CARRIED, after
weary months of pain and suffering.
His death, which took place at 1890
on the night OF the 10Th instant, at
Elberon, New Jersey, is an over
whelming public calamity. The
event is sad beyond the power of
words to express. A great and a
good man has fallen a victim to the
bullet of a cowardly assassin, and
fifty millions of freedom loving PEG.
pie of our own land are grief-stricken
and untold millions. of other lands
are appalled, at the startling specta-
Gle.
In every city, town, village and
hamlet; from the borders of Cana
da to those of Mexico, from the At
lantic to the Pacific there is sorrow
for the death of our honored Presi-
dent, and sympathy for his bereav.
ed family.
The President was born Noyem-
Der 10, 1881, in Cuyahoga Co. o. He
was the fourth child of Abram Gar
field and Eliza Ballou. His father
was of New England revolutionary
stock. His remains were buried last
Monday in Lakeview Cemetary, at
Cleveland, Ohio.

That is an encouraging report
which comes from Augusta, Geor.
gia. The town has ten cotton mills,
which run 10000 spindles and pay
S750,00O a year in wages. They
make and sell cloth at half cent
yard less than the New England
mills, and yet their profits are larger
Ithas been demonstrated beyond all
question that the South can manu-
facture as good quality of cotton
goods as can be made in the East;
and it has a significant sign that
more mills are being constructed
and large amounts of capital invest
ed in the business.

Small Beginnings.

= 4
Among the different questions
fraught with interest to the people
and especially those just entering
upon the journey Of life, none is Of
more Importance than that which
pertains to their proper maintenance
and the securing of a competency
for the afternoon of life. If any
man, passed the age of three score,
was asked the question direct, as to
whether he had squandered in some
way or other in early youth, money
which would have benefited him far
more in after life, he would doubtless
answer in the affirmative, and con-
cur in the opinion that the spring
time of life is the gold n period to
commence the foundation of what,
everof good we expect to accomplish.
1t must be remembered by all
young men, if they expect to adj
vance any distance up the ladder of
fame, either in a monetary or finan.
cial point of view, that small begin
nings are not to be dcspised, and
that they are but the lower rounds
of ladder reaching TO great results
if proper safeguards and economy
are brought into play. How fire.
quent do men spend money for what
is not only of no use, but brings de.
cided disadvantage. The accumu-
lation of money, too, is a question
more than most others-one of the
most deceiying kind. A man will
frequently almost throw away few
dollars not stopping for a moment to
think that by such small beginnings
the Astors, Vanderbilts, Goulds and
others of our own land and the
Rotchild'sof the old world, built up
their colossal fortunes from the
smallest beginnings.
The young men Of Louisiana hare
a bright future before them if they
are only true to themselves. No
State of the Union presents fairers
prospects to men Of energy and in.
dustry; but to succeed and cope with
the outside world every one should
keep in view the fact that it is only
by the economical outstanding of
small means they can ever expect to
become wealthy or even citizens of
moderate competencies. Despise
not small beginnings in the way
either of the accomplishment of
fame, honor or riches. All first err
rors are small. Despise them not ];
they will soon increase to great ones
and bring on certain ruin.
