The Gallatin Tennesseean, one Of
our valuable exchanges, came to us
last week much improved, having dis
carded its patent inside. We are
pleased to know the Tennessean is
prospecting, and hope its many patrons
and friends may continue their inhL-
ence to further increase its circulation
and advertising patronage. We are
glad to notice liberal share of space
will be devoted to the farming interests
Of the country. This feature ought
and will doubtless make it popular and
useful to large class of its readers.

Rust in Wheat.

We regret to learn that rust has
made its appearance in the wheat, and
is now doing vast deal of injury.
Many good farmers think that not half
crop will be gathered this year. In
many places the stalk has fallen to the
ground, and the grain is not all good.
The prospect for the late wheat is, in
deed, gloomy.

Call for a Farmers Convention.


Last week we suggested the impor-
lance of vice president Macon calling
convention of farmers and fruit
growers Of Warren for the purpose of
organizing farmers association to CO.
operate with the Middle Tennessee as
ISOLATION, organized short time ago at
Nashville. At this particular time the
farmers are very busy harvesting their
wheat, hay, oats, potatoes and finishing
up their corn crops, and could not well
spare the time now, but in a few weeks
we hope vice president Macon will
call meeting of all the farmers, fruit
growers, and all others in sympathy
with the farming interests.
We desire to meet our more expert
enced brother farmers and have them
tell US how we may do our work more
successfully. There is much to learn
in the art of farming and stock raising
In many counties in Tennessee, and
Warren is not an exception. We have
great room for Improvement, and feel
anxious and interested in seeing these
mountain counties keep pace with the
leading agricultural counties of the
State. One very important question
now is, how can we restore fertility to
our old worn out lands at the least
trouble and expense 1t must be
done. Every farmer, and especially
every young farmer, should feel so in
terested as never to cease his efforts
until he shall have restored every acre
of old sedge fields or other old worn
out lands on bis farm to fertility. Let
every farmer who has such lands deter
mine, and enjoin it upon his children,
never to cease trying until every acre
will grow grass. Itcan nearly all be re
stored in the course of time, and must
be done. Let us put these unsightly
parts Of our farms out of sight forever
by covering them with good, sweet,
juicy grass for our stock. We should
begin this work at once and restore, il
but an acre or Two each year, until we
shall have restored every acre to fer.
tility. This can be done, and more
easily than many imagine, We have
tried it on our own little, poor, worn
out farm, and now have the pleasure Of
seeing grass grow on many places thai
would not produce it few years ago
and that too without the expense o.
commercial fertilizers.
This is a question of vast Importance
to the future of Tennessee. Upon the
fertility of our soil depends the future
prosperity of the State. Theconstantly
increasing population must be fed, anC
our farmers must right about and re
store fertility instead of exhaust anC
impoverish their lands. They belong
to posterity, and not only postority WI
hold us accountable, but lie who made
US and gave US these lands in their ma

Since last reports there has been
material changes in grain and provis-
ions in the West. On last Saturday,
in Chicago, there was panic on
change in the provision market, which
resulted in heavy loss to the bulls of
not less than four millions. Lard
opened at 1885 and went down to
$500 on account of which one firm lost
a million dollars. The grain markets
have materially declined in the West
in sympathy with which the Southern
markets are very dull for corn and
wheat, the former being fully 3
cents and the latter 5 cents per bushel
lower. The Nashville grain markets
hold up on account of the short crop of
wheat in Tennessee. Unless there is
an improvement in the South we will
of necessity, be forced to lower the
prices of wheat and corn. Bacon is
fully l cent lower.

Stand to one side and let the world
run by while you get acquainted
with yourself, and see what kind of
fellow you are. Ask yourself hard
questions about yourself s.certain
from original sources if you are real>
ly the manner of man people say
you are 6ud out if you are always
honest if you always tell the square
perfect truth in business details if
Jour life is as good and upright at
eleven o'clock at night as it is at
noon if you are as sound temper

you are at Sunday School picnic !;
if you are as good boy when you
go to Atlanta as you are at home /;
if, 10 short, you really are the sort
J of young man your father hopes
you are, your mother says you are
and your sweetheart believes you are.

THE auBBRNAToRIAL RACE

The contest dcepens Mcdaniel
and Cook are in the race, while
dark horses are whickeriug in the
distance. But we are still in favor
Of Judge Brown.
While the clods we're being SHOW
eled upon the coffin of Georgia's
dead Governor, Mr.. Bacon, with an
indecent haste decidedly unbecom
ing, allowed his greediness, or
waiting ambition to overleap itself
iu parading his candidacy through
an interview in the Atlanta Consti-
tuition. Our first impulse was that
it would be we'll enough for Mr..
Boy ill DOT the unexpired term.
Since then the Bullock letters have
come to light, and we Immediately
experienced revulsion Of feeling
against such a trading, trucking
politician. Neither Bacon or Boyn,
ton being acceptable to US, we very
naturally came to the conclusion that
Georgia was not destitute of good
material out of which TO make gOv-
ernors, and there was no necessity
existing whereby worthy Georgians
should be excluded to allow the ele-
walton of only BOynton or Bacon.
North Georgia having so long been
Ignored, there doomed up before our
mental vision the splendid character
of Judge James K Brown, a man 10
whom the elements of true manhood
are so mixed that all mankind might
slap their hands in approval of his
nomination for Governor by the
Democratic PaIty--a party to which
he has always given unfsltering al
legisnce, 10 dark hours as we'll as
bright ones. Boynton and Bacon
have already created dissensions in
the democratic party, and factions
are now arrayed contending
for the overthrow of each other. II
the delegates to the convention will
act wisely, they will nominate Judge
Brown as a conciliator, in whom all
Georgia would have an able, faith
full and impartial Governor. So
mote it be.

A KIDNAPPED BOY,
Restored After Twenty Years.

10 1868 the FederaIs we're pass
ing along the streets Of Montgomery,
Ala, leaving the city. Richard c..
Flanagan, of the Sixth Illinois Cav-
airy, spied as be rode past house
a curly,headed little boy of about
four years, watching with curious
eyes the merry soldiers as they rode
away. He recognized the little fel
low, having seen him before, and
and taking fancy to him, picked
him up to give him a ride. Bat
having gone some distance he made
up his mind to keep him, and did
so. The boy was the pet and dar
ling of the camp for the next two
years, and at the close of the war
Flanigin took the boy home with
him to Hamilton county, Ill adopt
ing him az bis own child and giving
him a good education.
Meanwhile the father of the child,
unable to account for the loss of his
boy, had finally come to think be
was dead, and though be grieved
sorely, had at last become resigned
to his loss. In blissful Ignorance Of
bis birth, the boy grew to mans es
tate, thinking himself Flanigin'c
son. A short time ago, the latter
informed him that be was not, and
told him the story of his kidnapping
from the South. The young man
now "a years of age, wrote to Mont
gomery, and ascertained that his
father was still living.
Some time ago, under his new
found name, w. A. Sherah, be wenu
to Montgomery. The meeting be
tween father and son was very af'
fecting, as can be imagined. The
old man threw himself upon the
young ones neck, and Sobbed and
llughed by turns over the restora
ton. After visit Of a few days
Mr.. Sherah went back to his North
ern home.

matter, then the coalitioniSts the

Democratic party are entitled TO its

all the efforts to overcome the ee~
ments nimical to the party have been

done these letters, aud all similar

in this city. Whitlock was mem
Der of the grand jury that found an

Whitlock was a member of the jury

the matter before the grand jury, who
