lsc decline from Saturdays close. There
was further decline. but rally followed,
and the market closed easy at Ac below
opening figures. A comparatively light
business was reported in mess pork, and the
market was steadier. A stronger feeling was
developed in lard, rand prices averaged
higher.

The Rogue's Latest Device.

The latest London rogue's device is to drive a hanson, and from that elevated position to pick out from the roofs of four wheelers such articles of luggage as seem most promising. These he places on the roof of lis own cab, and drives away with them, presumably to some railway station. The proceeding is of the neat est kind, and every precaution is taken that forethought can suggest. In order that the spectacle of luggage on an empty cab should not excite suspicion, tenn porary fare is provided, called ''buck;'' he has nothing to do but look as if he owned the property over his head, though in reality he knows nothing about it, and is speculating in his own mind as to whether it is a carpetbag or portman- teau.

MARIETTA. GA THURSDAY MORNING. MAY TO- 1885,
OUR YOUNG MEN.

1t we can stop our young men, as
they come up, from going away to
hunt business, it will be a great bless
ing. The Southwest and Northwest
are full OF men who left our State
seeking home more congenial than
the land Of their birth. The lack of
lite and enterprise was the cause.
The State has suffered greatly by 1t.
They left ut a time when we were
making no effort to develop the coun-
try. For fifty years. though We
were on a higher plane-we made
no more effort at industrial advance
ment than the Mexicans who have
been blowing with a forked stick for
centuries. We neglected our farm
ing lands we failed to improve our
water power, we walked over the
finest coalfelds in the world and
didn't know they were valuable. Iron
ore was only known because 1t was
in the way of the pillow. We sent
our cotton to England and sold it for
pennies and bought it back for dol
lars. With the finest grain and meat
country in the world we bought our
corn and bacon in the West. We
encouraged manufacturing, but it
was the manufacturing of New Eng
land. We prided ourselves on our
Southland. We maintained our
dignity and responsibility, however,
and our public men were among the
most eloquent in the land. If
talented young man wanted to go in
to politics he remained here if he
wanted to go into business he won't
to hunt it where it was. The way
to stop this is to go into business
ourselves, build up the private
schools, put our public schools on
good basis, establish schools of tech.
nology, build cotton factorias manu-
facture large part of the cotton we
raise, raise sheep and manufacture
the wool, open our coal fields and
convert our beds of iron ore into pig
iron, then work it up into rails, nails
and bar iron; build foundries and
make our own castings-in fact make |
this great manufacturing country,
and, in short, make the country so
attractive and full of life that, in
stead OF our young men leaving the
State, we will invite the enterprising
young men OF the North to us.

BRAVE WORDS,

The New York Herald, of last Sat.

graves, says;
Thursday was Memorial Day in
the South. The soldiers graves were
properly decorated with flowers, and
the resources OF oratory were OK
hausted in praise of the devotion.
seli-sacrihce and courage of those
who fell in battle.
"All right, neighbors. A brave
mans grave is a sacred spot the wide
world over, in some respects the
most sacred spot on the planet 1t
is the birth place of honest pride. of
inspiration to lofty md honorable
deeds; the incentive to prowess, to
chivalry, to that daring which fol-
lows a conviction of duty at whatev-
er cost and to that patriotism which
IS the best bulwark of the Republic.
Nobody will join more heartily in
your grateful tribute than the sol
dlers OF the North, whose destiny 1t
was to win the fight against the most
determined foe that ever yielded to
superior force. They do not forget
what Senator Sherman so eloquently
alluded to in his Nashville speech
that Southern as well as Northern
courage is the product of our nation
