Says the Nashville Americas :
Secretary Hite was sent yesterday
a sample-of cotton with a history.
The cotton came from a bale raiaed
near West Point, Hiss, ia 1853.
The mar who raised The cotton was
offered forty-two cents per pound for
1t 10 1864, but refused to take Il.
He has since been holding for q Rise
that never came, and 10 March iHst
he sold il for 10 cents per pound.
Estimating the bale to weigh 500
pounds, and counting simple inter
est on the money at6 per cent, the
planter lost $4S7, so by not dispos-
ing Of it 26 years ago. The cotton
is perfectly sound and as good as
when taken from The feld.n
An exchange suggests the follow.
ing novel idea In regard TO county
roads:
Name all The county roads as
streets are now named and number
the houses along the roads. The
plan is q good one and should be
adopted BIZ the county court. At
present county roads have no
designation except as accidentally
fail 10 them, and il is often difficult
for strangers to find them without
frequent inquiries. Name your
roads and let the names appear on
ea5h corner. It will then be easy
to find any house as il is nov il tie
city where the streets and numbers
are given.

A new BUSINESS METHOD

8. H. Baynard has adopted new plan that
ie now prevailing In western cities, whereby
the opportunity Is given to procure a good
watch for very. low price, through the
agency of cooperative clubs. This plan is as
follows: Clubs are composed of forty mem-
bers, who pay one dollar fee, which payment
goes to the originator Of the plan. When the
club Is formed they mutually agree to purchase
forty watches for the sum Of seven hundred
and Etxty-five dollars. Each week thereafter
the members meet, and each pays one dollar,
at which time a number Is drawn, which en-
titles the owner Of such number to select and
and receive his watch, similar to the old plan
Of watch clubs, with the exception that upon
the drawing of a number further payment Of
that number cease. The remaining members
Qess one each week. continue their payments
and drawing for thirty weeks when all pay
ments cease and the remaining ten members
receive their watches.
The watches so distributed are a gold-fllled
case, made by James Boss, with either ali Ell
gin, WalthaIn, Springfield or Hampden move
ment, such as are sold all over our city for
thirty-five dollars and which are fully war;
ranted to give satisfaction. Clubs are now
forming and drawings win commence Tues
