Seeing notice in the papers few
days ago that Governor Gordon would
raise no cotton this year on his farm
the thought occurred to me TO ask the
following questions:
/. How would it affect the com
merce of the world If the farmers and
planters of the south would hold con-
vention and pledge themselves not to
stead to raise wheat, corn, oats and
other cereals, potatoes, onions, turnips,
hogs, poultry, ETC., anes whateveJ
would best suit the soil and climate Of
the section interested
3. Would such . movement be
eventually beneficial or injurious to
the cotton statesf-Lettar 70 Atlanta

Experience and daily observation,
however, prove that the love of the
peanut Is not confined solely to the
small boy. It's fascination has a
broader sweep. Fashion may taboo
it at the table, but it takes sweet re-
venge In all sorts of other places and
upon all sorts of humanity. Its will.
ness, too, Is Machiavellian. No other
nut has half its cunning, and none
other can boast the half its power Of
insinuation. Its omnipresence Is un.
sscapable. Every street corner fumes
with its roasted fragrance, at FIVE cents
quart, measured out by tho leather
colored merchant who has left his
home beneath the sunny skies Of Italy
to set his trap for fortune In our far
vored land, temptingly baited with
peanuts and pink lemonade. Prudence
may take sniff at the bait and pass
on Who hesitates Is lost. One NIB

mel In contact with his palate and

nut. The trap springs and sendf him

Sir Lyon Playfair, in letter to
Junius Henri Browne, author of a
paper in the New York Forum, for
October, under the above title;
Having represented a large med
ical constituency 1.-THE University OF
Edinburgh for seventeen years as
as a member of Parliament, | natu-
rally came in contact with the most
eminent medical men in England.
l have put the question to most of
them, IBID you, in your extensive
practice, ever know patient who
was afraid to die? With two ex
captions, they answered. No One
of these exceptio IS was Sir Benia-
min Brodie, who said he has seen
one case, The other was Sir Rob.
ert Chaistison, who also had seen
one case-that young girl of bad
character who had sudden acct
dent. | have known three { lends
who partially devoured by wild
beasts under apparently hopeless
circumstances of escape. The first
was Livingstone, the great African
traveller, who wss knocked on bis
back by a lion, which began to
MUNICH his arm. He assured me
that he felt no fear or pain, an d
that his only feeling was one OF
intense curiosity as to which part OF
his body the lion would take next.
The next was Rustem Pasha
now Turkish Ambassador in Lon
don. A bear attacked him and tore
of part Of his hand and part of his
arm aud shoulder. He also assured
me that he bad neither a sense OF
pain nor fear, bnt he telt excessively
angry becsuse the bear grunted
with so much salts faction 10
munchipg him. The third case is
that OF Sir Edward Bradford an
Indian officer now occupying q
high position in the Indian Office.
He was seized in a solitary place
by a tiger, which held him firmly
behind his shoulders with one paw
and then deliberately devoured the
whole of his arm, beginning at the
hand, ending at the shoulder. He
was positive that he had no sensa-
ton of fear and thinks that he fell;
little pain when the iapgs went
through his hand, but !s certain
that he felt none during the MUNICH :
ing of his arm"

There are upon the skin OF every hu-
man being, child and adult alike, 2, 300
600 pores. Through these pores in the
form of insensible perspiration, is ex-
PEELED more than one-quarter of the
nourishment taken into the system.
The Importance of keeping open these
perspiration valves upon child's body,
Is second only TO thBt of promptly d.
costing the food eaten. 1t was to open
the pores of the skin and to assimilate
the food that DR.. Pitcher formulated
Castoria. Loose bowels, constipation.
fesers and eruptions which are so con-
slant among infants and children, and
which kill one-third of all children be-
fore they are five years old, arise prin-
cipally from these two causes. 1t is
from the wonderful results attendant
upon the use of Castoria in regulating
the stomachs and bowels AID keeping
open the pores of the skin, that Casto-
ria acquired its world wide reputation
With plenty Of water for the body,
pure air for the lungs and Castoria to
assimilate the food, there need be no
unaccounted for sickness among chill.

Gossip 1bOut Mr.. CIeUeLa nd.


The fact that President Cleveland
is to become a member of the law
firm of Bangs, Stetson, Tracy IL
McVeagh gains fresh interest
when linked, as it is, with the an
nouncement that Daniel lamont
his Private SECRETARY and con6den-
tial friend, was to be President OF
the Avenue G Horse Railroad Com
pany. The firm Of Bangs, Stetson,
Tracy Il McVeagh represent Weld
ner, Elkins, Kemble, Whitney and
others, who controle the the Pbila-
delphia Traction Company, one oil
the most gigantic corporations OF
the age. The present action OF
President Cleveland is not sudden
move. In 1884 be Was invited To
Join the firm in the event of his de-
feat as the Democratic candidate,
and he was then offered a sallery OF
guaraates of $4,000 year. When
his term was d. awing to a close
this officer was renewed under the
same conditions, and Mr.. Cleve-
Ian fond it practicable to accept
In these negotiations Mr.. Whitney
has been the active agent. He
it was, as explained few days ago,
that procured for Private Secretary
Lamont the position Of President OF
the Avenue G. line in this city.
Although Mr.. Cleveland has not
yet joined the firm, he has interes-
ted himself in its business and
taken pains to defend the compa--
ny against outside attacks. The
new departure is striking evil
dence of the cordiality between all
three parties engaged in the nego.
tiations. The faction Company
is one of the mightiest business
aggregstions Of the time. It's
scope 10 national and it's pecuniary
future dazzling. Thus the vicis-
STUDIES of political life have opened
new and magnificent business OPP
porNuities for the defeated. Re-
garding the future residence of
President Cleveland after March
the 4, much of the talk INDUCED in
is mere gossip and guess work.
Mr.. Cleveland will live in Brook
Ign, and not in New York. Several
houses are under consideration.
Private parties have the matter
in hand, and there 10 no doubt
that they will succeed in purchas
ing house 10 splendid location,
and one that will please the Pres
ident. Mr.. Cleveland prefers home
life, and he believes Brooklyn is
the place to enjoy it undisturbed
by the noise and hustle that chsrac-
terize New York.

Garden and Orchard.

Unleaehed ashes are excellent
for the vineyard.
Hog manure is one of the besi
fertilizers for peach trees.
Repeated planting are necessary
to keep up full supply of fruit,
The srbor vi ae is one of the very
best Ornamental shrubs that car
be planted. 1t should be given
plenty OF room.
Both aspar .gns aud rhubarb will
stand heavy applications of manure
with profit, especially when early
maturity is wanted.
For the small farmer there is
no question but that with good
management small fruits can be
made much more profitable than
grain or stock.
Coal ashes, while not containing
any great amount OF plant food,
are valuable as mulch for small
fruits and orchard trees. They
can also be used to good advantage
on stiff soil, rendering it loose
and mellow, and making il easier to
work.
With either small fruits or gar
dening it is an easy matter to at
tempt too much. Five acres for
one man with horse will be all
that can be done properly.
| The value of hot-bed is not APP
preciated as it shoald be. A full
supply of plants can be secured by
this means much easier than by

We are opposed to the abolition
Of capitol punishment. We believe
society has an undoubted right TO
execute criminals, and that, in
certain cases aud under proper re-
striction, it is its duty to do so.
We regard the opposition capital
punishment as mainly an. outgrowth
of that modern sentimentalism
which deems ali criminals about as
much to be pittled as condemned,
