The Exhibits.

Without invdious comparison it will be
admitted that of all the displays which
attract the eve of the spectator rs be
passes through the agricultural depart
ment none offers so great attractions as
those of Farmer Wadley, the Holton Club
and manufacturers Hammond, Hull & Co.
In these three exhibits, two representing
the farming, the third one of the manu-
featuring interests of the South, there lies
something far deeper than a mere varied
and interesting display. To the thought
full mind the all absorbing questions at
once present themselves: l. Are
we Of the South capable of sustaining
ourselves in the face of an active and
vigorous competition IN our home indus
triesS 2. Have we in the past and are
we now making an advance ia that direc-
ton? In seeking q solution OF these
questions, it might be well to let the two
industries to which we have referred.
namely, the planters, as represented BY
Farmer Wadley, with the HOlton Club,
and the manufacturers, as represented
by Hammond, Hull Il Co., guide us in our
inquiry
Farmer Wadley's experience unmis-
takably demonstrates that domestic ami
mails of all Kinds can be raised on our own
home soil not only better in adaptation to
our climate, but at much less cost than
can be supplied by ImpOrtations from any
quarter. The same TACT holds in still
greater degree to farm products of all
kinds.
And it is unnecessary to add that these
assertions Will be more than fully sus-
tanned not only by every member of the
Hoton Club, but by the individual ex-
perience of every successful farmer in our
State.
Now, let the result OF Hammond, Hull
IL Co.'s experience IN the manufacturing
OF fertilizers tell US the manuiacturers'
story. 1t was only a few years ago that
such thing as a Southern manufacturer
OF fertilizers was almost unknown To the
enormous trade in this article in our
state. 1t is but necessary to turn to the
reports Of State Commissioner Hender-
son TO see what strides the South has
made IN the manufacture OF this ar
tlcle. Within short period she has
not only run out many OF the
leading brands Of the Northern
manufacturers, but has reduced
the cost to the planter OF this necessary
article more than 60per cent. To-day the
South controls this trade in her own legiti-
mate territory. Messrs. Hammond, Hull
Il Co. tell us that from an annual produc-
tiOn of some four thousand tons, they
now produce from twelve To fifteen thou
sand tons, with constantly increasing
demand. Other instances or daily in
creasing demand for goods OF Southern
manufacture might be adduced were it
necessary TO do so.
Rest assured, farmers OF the south,
there is bur one road that leads to indie
pendence-home productions and patron
izlng home industries.
This combination will eventually win
in all our industries. agricultural. manu-
featuring and mechanical, aud IN your
hands, farmers OF the south, aud your
hands only, is the hey TO this combina-
tiOn. Macon TeiegrdDh.

BURST FROM THE EARTH.
Sundays Tremor starts Boiling
Spring in Charleston.


A curious freak attending the slight
earth tremor which was felt in Charleston
Sunday afternoon was the bursting forth
OF a spring Of clear, pure water IN the
custom house yard. This spring is near
one of the assures which was caused by
the great earthquake on the night of Aug.
81. it is about 80 feet from the eastern
portion Of the custom house aud in almost
a straight line from the outer row of COL
umns which help to support the immense
roof of the building. The Spring was
visited by number OF persons during the
day and WAS the subject of great many
surmises. 1t was flowing sunday night
at the rate Of about gallon minute and
had covered the ground around the "boll'
with water tor a space of about % feet
square. The "spring" is about
30 feet west of street main Of the Water
Works Company by Which the wbaryes
are supplied with water, and in close
proximity to a number of barrels OF water,
which supply the water for the engine OF
the custom house contractor. W cen the
spring first made its appearance, it is
said, the water was almost boiling hot.
At 5 O'Clock sunday night it was still rum
ming, and was about milk warm. OF
eight persons who tasted 1t only two
could discover that it mad any OF the quail
ties of arLesan water. The origin OF the
spring is not known. 1t Will furnish the
seismic scientists with a clue, and per-
haps they may be able, with its assist
