establishing their agencies for the purpose
of buying up the cotton seed this winter.

farmers selling their seed, unless they
take the meal in return This they have
not been doing heretofore. They sell the
seed, use the money for something else. and
then use little of the cheapest guano they
can find in the Spring; consequently tho up
lands Of the country are being exhausted
at very rapid rate. l think this is thought
for discussion in the Ali iance.
Our town is exceedingly healthy just
now.

For the TINES.
Our Dead.

1t has been said that the best evidence OF
the civilization Of q country is the condition
of the public roads and we add and the
condition of the cemeteries and burial
grounds, we blush to admit the fact that no
place has moro neglected burial grounds
than Union. In the old village graveyard
in which rest the parents, wives and chill
dren of many Of our citizens, the graves
are covered with q rank growth Of weeds
and grass. Many graves have no stone to
mark the spot, lost in wilderness Of grass
and weeds is almost every sacred resting spot
of our beloved dead loved and honorcd in
life. forgotten in death. This sacred ground
is too often made COW pasture. AS we
walked through grass grown streets Of this
silent city of the dead, we were amazed, and
wondered in our mind. what would some
who are buried there think, if they could
come from their graves and gaze for mo-
,nent upon the scene? As it is, they would
sink into their graves with the sad exclama-
ton, forgotten. Oh ! shameful neglect
Do any of US now living feel that this will
be our condition, Of our grave? Knowing
what we do, how can we hope to have it
otherwise, when we too go hence. We
call upon the Ladies, who some years ago
formed a society, and had committee to
attend to the grounds, and so much contri-
butcd at each meeting for the purpose
of keeping the grounds neat and clean.
Some portions, the fence is broken down
gates off, consequently, always open to dep
relations of stock, etc. This should not be
in highly intelligent and civilized oommu :
nifty like old Union, who has always ranked d
high in her pride of place, person and
character. USo.

WHAT THE ALLIANCE HAS DoNE.--It woula
be unfair not to give the Farmers Alliance
credit for the work it has done in this direc-
tion They have preached steadily the
| doctrine OF making the farms self-sup-
porting, and their teachings is Largely
due to the result.
What else has tho Alliance done? No
est mate is full or just that does not take
account of the work Of this remarkable
movement.
1st. The crops have been made on less
money than ever before in our history.
ECONOMY and selfdeniar' has been the
watchword Of the Alliance, and it has been
carried to the point Of heroism. The noble
women of the Alliance have been foremost
in this rs in other good works, and have
worn faded and dingy clothes that their
husbands and sons might once more get on
their feet. Is it not enough to say that
Georgia's crops this year will cost her 30
per cent. less than they cost last year!
I'd. The farmers are less in debt than
ever before. Merchants everywhere will
testify to this. Trade is thus made ssfer
prices to the farmer are made lower, and
he will market his crop with more liberty
aud TO better advantage-choosiug his own
selling time and place. The advantages Of
this will be so apparent that he will not
easily 60 in debt again, and the old, unsafe.
unbalanced and oppressive system Of
farming under lien aud buying on time,
will be largely abandoned. This system
has been false one from beginning to eud,
under which general prosperity and indc-.
pcndence was impossible. 1t meant uneasi-
ness and risk to the merchant and vassalags
to the farmer. Let us hope that in the
abundant harvests of this season accounts
will be squared, the old system abolished,
and new and better plan adopted.
Many of the speakers now addressing
the Alliance meetings claim that in the un-
precedented harvests of tho year God is
bestowing his blessing on the Alliance
movement. Many Of the farmers believe
that through these harvcsts God smiles
on their work and approves.
No man can interpret the wisdom that is
inscrutable. Let our friends be content,
therefore, with the well seasoned and we'll
approved axiom. that "God helps those who
helr themselves .'-AHapta Constitution.

reason for any one leaving the town Of
