Plantation Life.

N. Y Herald,
1t is generally supposed by those who
have not chanced to be made acquainted
with the facts that the change in the Ia
Dor system of the South has resulted in
quite doing away with the old planta-
ton life. To a certain extent this is
true In many of the States the great
tracts of land formerly worked by single
owners, with slave labor, are now either
lying idle, with houses gone to ruin, or
have been cut up into small farms and
are being worked on shares or by negro
dividing plantations still exist, but in
Georgia this system is the most COM
monty in favor. Georgia was the first
Democratic Southern State after the
war, and it is to-day the richest of all
the cotton States and the fourth in
wealth or all the Southern States, while
it contains more real estate, owned bv
negroes, than any other in the South.
Yet, in Southwestern Georgia, in Sum-
ter county, an "old-time plantation Of
eight thousand acres is described. run on
modern principles and with scientific
farming, where all the best elements of
ancient Southern plantation life are re-
tanned, modified only by the different re-
lations between employer and employed
Here are leagues of cotton and miles of
corn" and an acre of corn planted to
compete for the State fair premium &" is
so luxuriant that at a distance of twenty
steps q man ON horseback is completely
hidden from sight" Here the negro en-
joys his sports and his national customs
after the good old Southern fashion and
without the crack of the overseer's lash.
At night he takes his part in the "de-
batting society or dances the buzzard
dance" to the music Of one of those
quaint old melodies that may have been
| listened to in Central Africa two centu-
ries ago. Here you have Democratic eu-
premacy pure and simple. which has
overcome the worst possible opposition
OF years of Republican misgovernment,
and where the negro is the happiest and
the richest of any Of his race in the
country.

Charleston News and Courier
The discussion as to the birthplace of
Andrew Jackson has recently been re-

some that he was native of Tennessee ;
but it is definitely known that he was
born in South Carolina. 1t has been

THE CHOLERA DEATH ROLE.

PARIS, July 22.-There were thirty
deaths from cholera at Marseilles last
night and twenty-eight at ToulOn. A
panic was created at Toulon last night
by the arrival OF one hundred cOfIins,
which had been ordered from Narcotics,
and in order to allay excitement, it was
found necessary TO send the coffins
back. At a meeting Of the municipal
council OF Paris the director OF public
aid declared that no case OF genuine Asi-
attic or sporadic cholera had been re-
ported at the Paris hospitals. Deaths
which had been attributed to cholera
were really due TO other cases.
PARIS, July 21.-The cholera in Paris
is on the increase. Eight cases were
reported to-dap, two Of which were
fatal At Toulon the epidemic is as
suming most virulent character.
Nearly all of the victims are dying
suddenly.
The deaths from cholera at Aries are
averaging nine daily. The panic there
Is increasing.
PARIS, July 91.-Two deaths from
Asiatio cholera occurred at Madrid to-
day.
At Toulon and Marseilles a typhoid
epidemic has followed in number of
cholera cases. The doctors pronounce
the disease typhoid cholera,
There were sixty-one deaths from

Poker is to be the fsvorite game at Sara

two big and gorgeous gambling houses
there, representing each an investment OF
not less than q hundred thousand dollars
in property, and q proportionately heavy
outlay for maintenance. The pretense
has always been that the faro banker had
no material advantage over the player, ex-
cept In steadiness, GOODNESS and capital.
Now that the gamester prefers poker,
played in a party OF real or pretended am
ateurs, the fact comes out clearly that the
spider Of a costly web does not let the
nies buzz cheaply therein. The charges
for a private room. the use OF cards. and q
customary quantity Of refreshments for
four poker players amount for a long even
ing in q Saratoga club house to never less
than $40.
