Burn Your Cotton Stalks.

Several of our farmer friends have informed us that upon close eXamina- ton they have found deposited in the cotton stalks, just inside the outer covering. a number of little eggs. supposed to be the germ that IS to hatch the progenitors of the cotton worm next year. This is an impor- tant discovery, and will doubtless lead to timely precautions being taken by burning the stalks instead of turning them under as has been the usual custom. The ravages of the cotton pests the past season has demonstrated the necessity of the ut most vigilance on the part of the planters, and we are glad to see them so thorougly alert in a matter that concerns them so vitally.
 This is matter which should be looked into by every cotton producer. It may be, as suggested, that the timely destruction of cotton stalks by burning, may save next year s crop from being destroyed by worms.- Russellville Democrat.

Nasal Catarrh.

MT. T. A. Williams, a leading dry goods merchant of Spartanburg, 5. C., writes under date of November s, 1888; For years l had severe case of nasal catarrh, with all the dis agreeable effects which belong to that disease. which make life painful and almost uncomfortable. l used medicines prescribed by leading physicians, and suggested by num- bers of friends, but without getting any better. In the fall of 1887, l began to take Swift's Specific (S. $. S.). It had the desired effect, and cured me after taking few bottles. In my opinion Swift's Specific (S. s. S.) is the only medicine now in use that will effect permanent cure for catarrh.

THE NEGRO QUESTION.

The great and growing question of the day, and one hardest of solu- ton, is the negro question. What to do with him, where to put him, and how best to manage him, are the momentous themes.
 From the beginning of time down to the present, history shows that the Anolo-Saxon race has never allowed an inferior race of people to live in the same country with them, on an equal footing. And. as God has created no race the equal of the white, no legislation or scheming can place the negro, Chinaman or Indian on a level with them. The whites drove the Indians from this country. and took possession of it, as they have driven other inferior races be- fore them in Europe, Asia, Africa and the isles of the sea. A lower race has never dominated or partially controlled the Anglo-Saxon. Hence we say the negro will have to go get out of the white mans way, es- pecially in governmental affairs.
 Two States, vitally interested, are asking Congress to settle this vexed question, for the best interests of both the whites and the blacks. Mississippi asks that the fifteenth amendment to the Constitution, giv- ing the negro the elective franchise, be abrogated. Alabama, through one of her Senators, asks that the negro be gradually colonizcd, sent back to Africa, at the expense of the government These two States are among those most densely populated with negroes, and they have come to the only correct conclusion in the matter, that the whites cant afford longer to be troubled and vexet with them.
 It is only question of a shor time when Congress will have to ac in the matter, and the sooner it does it the better. One of two things vii have to be done. Either the negro must be colonized-separated entire ly from the whites-or else put on
 different footing, made to occupy hi
 proper place, as a lower being anc an inferior race. God speed the da, when one or the other will be done

It is the duty of merchants and professional men to patronize their local paper, by advertising therein, and it is the duty of the publisher to print such advertisement at a reason able price There is no paper, how ever, that can make a living, taking business locals at , cents per line, and display advertisements at s2.50 per inch per year. No established newspaper would attempt to do such a thing; but paper winch fills a page with old -bellum cuts, long since dead, and which has but a small bona lide circulation, can prob- ably afford it, and the service is worth no more than the prices named, if as much, - Searcy Beacon.
