THE CLIMATE OF THE SOUTH

If there were no other reason for
believing that in very few years
from now the population of the old
slave states will be augmented by
tens of thousands of valuable citizens
from the North and West, the cli~
mate of the South alone would afford
sufficient basis for that expecta,
ton.
In the northern and western states
the autumns, the springs and the
summers are agreeable enough, but
the winters are dangerously as we'll
as disagreeably severe. And while
the pleasant autumns, and summers,
and springs are short and salubrious,
the severe winters are long and all
the time Threatening health with dis
eases that strike straight at tho very
sources of life. The winters of the
South not only begin late and end
early, but even in the most north
ern of the Southern States it is ex-
ceptional for the weather 10 mid>
winter to be cold enough for half a
dozen consecutive days, to interfere
seriously with work out of doors.

The Cotton Seed Oil Mills have
about exhausted their supply of cot
ton seed, and unless it comes in fas
ter they will have to stop work, -
The mill has the capacity of sixteen
presses but are only using eight at
present, which consumes four car
loads of seed every twenty -four
hours. Every part of seed is used
for some purpose. The lint from
the seed is used for batting or felt
ing to put under carpets. The hulla
are used for firing the engine, after
which ashes are sold for fertili zing.
The cotton seed meal is either ex>
changed for seed or sold for fertili
zing. A large part of the oil is
shipped direct to Europe. -DeKalb

1t said that iu the Florida swamps
there are negroes kept there by the
remnant of the Indian tribes, and
that the red men do not let the
black men know they are free. --
This is perhaps bsseless, but it will
be news to most people that the In
dian Territory has $4,000 negroes,
former slaves of the Indians and
their children, who are denied all
civil rights, but such seems to be
the fact. They are not allowed to
vote, have no standing in court,
either IS parties, witnesses or jurors,
aud are even excluded from the
schools.

The town elections of last week
in the State of New York showed
Democratic successes in all the cities
usually carried by them and in many
places that have heretofore been
Republican strongholds. A member
of the Democratic State Committee
says that, estimating from the re.
turns, the Democrats would easily
carry the State in a general election
at the present time by from $4,000
to 100000 majority. Everything
indicated that the Republicans were
as widely divided as when Gov.
Cleveland was elected.

NEEDED.

The present mode of procedure Of
filing the vacancy Of Governor,
says the Augusta Chronicle. is awk>
ward, cumbersome and expensive,
Besides precipitating an excited
campaign upon the shadow of the re-
firing funeral cortege, the people are
subjected to the expense of holding
a special election and of sustaining
an extra session of the Legislature
for the purpose of publishing the re-
suit and of inaugurating the Cover
nor. Obviously, this is all wrong.
The State should have Lieutenant
Governor, elected at large, whose
duties should be to preside over the
Senate, and on the death of Cover
nor be quietly sworn in to fill the
unexpired term.

Senator Kellogg estimates that
the decrease of revenue from sugar,
caused by the reduced rates of the
new tariff, will not exceed four mil,
lions of dollars. That would leave
about forty five millions of revenue
from the tariff on sugar and molasses
The duty 90 sugar is purely e reve-
nue. one, as this amount derived from
it proves. 1t is at the same time
incidentally protective to the Louisi
ana sugar planters. But it is not
right that one fifth Of the whole rev.
enue derived from the tariff should
come from one article of general
ard indispensable use. And it is
wrong-grestly wrong to graduate
the duty on sugar so as to give
greater protection to the refners
than to the planters.

AS Hon. r. G.. Frost, of Missouri
was unseated in the House on the
last day of the session but one, SO
that bis Republican competitor might
draw tho pay of member for two
years, he delivered the following
shot: 81 can congratulate myself
upon the fact that my exit from this
hall will be a matter which will con-
Germ the public very little. But
you, too, MIR. Speaker, in a few
short hours will quit that chair, and
your party will quit this floor, aud
this to the satifaction of all, not by
the decision of a malignant partisan
tribunal which has not heard your
case, or pretended to hear it, but by
the impartial. we'll considered yer
diet of the public, who has judged
you, sir, and judged your party"
Then the House voted, and Mr..
FROST was elected by strictly party
vote.

THE GREAT REMEDY
FOR ALL
DISEASES OF THE BLADDER
AND KIDNEYS.

This Remedy has stood the test of time, has
been weighed in tho scales of public opinion,
and to-day has an army of msn, women and
children, who over their own signatures bear
testimony to its curative properties. Some
have been cured of Diabetes, some of Bright's
Disease, some of Inflammation of the Bladder
some of Catarrh of the Bladder some of Incon-
thence of the Urine, some of Leucorrh9a, or
Whites some of pains in the Back and Loins,
some of diseases of the Prostate Gland.
For all Diseases arising
from a diseased state of the
Bladder and Kidneys, this
Remedy stands without a
Rival.
Without rival in the number of cures
effected; without rival in The purity OF its
composition: without a rival in number OF
bottles sold. The annual sale OF Smiths Ex-
tract of May Flower exceeds the sales OF all
other Kidney Remedies combined.
DR. ELI IVES, says: THAT in many aggra-
eated cases, when Buchu had failed to produce
any benefit, May Flower has effected speedy
cure"
DR.. J. H. BIRD, says: 81 have found May
Flower to be a remedy for all Kidney COM
plants, far" superior to Buchu or Juniper"
DR. II. F. MARTIN says: May Flower acts
more promptly in ali diseases of the Bladder
and Kidneys than any remedy which has come
under my notice.
DIR. BENZ II. LONG, says: al have found
May Flower exceedingly beneficial in my treat
