What Abont IT,

ne following from the Henjera
son correspondent of the Fort Val
ley Enterprise discloses a condition
ofagrlcultural affairs that is cons
handing the serious consideration
OF our farmers throughout the
county.
That such a condition is hurtfIl
TO the best interests of our land
owners is a self-evident fact, and
II at a remedy is greatly desired
goes without saying. It seems
that we are rapidly drifting to the
tenant system, which will surely
become heavy drawback to agri>
culture. However deeply we may
deplore this hurtful tendency, We
cannot see that the land owners
can positively lift the blame from
their own shoulders, il blame there
be, nor expect any remedy other
than one to be applied by them
selves
eve never before saw farm
ing move off so slowly. But
little work has been done in
this community. The greatest
drawback is the scarcity of la
Dor, | don't know of a farmer
who has a full complement of
hands, and from the outlook
! am afraid some of the farmers
are getting a little desperate.
Ole was heard to tell a negro
to propose his own trade; that
any kind would be perfectly
agreeable to him (the white
many. Another Offering to let
them take his stock and corn
off to themselves to work the
land on shares. Won't that
demoralize labor? While the
white felix's are short of labor,
on the other hand, the negro
farmers are full to running
over, and every negro who has
a little corn and fodder has
purchased a high priced mule
and is renting land. A change
is certain to come, and it won't
take more than one bad crop
year to bring it, and when it
does there is going to be shaky
times"
Evidently there is need here
to apply the wisdom of an ag-
gregation of farmers and land
owners. Probably the Alliance
might profitably consider the
subject. Perry Journal.

The Nurderer in the dnrr Roy.

The Murderer ia the Jury Box.
During the aszizes at Exeter,
England, Sir James Dico, chief
justice Of the court of common
pleas, presided at a trial for mu =
der, The evidence left no
doubt Of the guilt of the man in
the dock. To the great surprise of
the Judge and the public, the jury
acquitted him. So utterly wrong
appeared the verdict, that the
Judge called the foerman of the ju-
~ to his private room to ask him
on what ground he had discharged
the prisoner. The foreman said:
81 am going to tell you something
which you must not reveal for three
days" The judge assented to
this. well sir" continued the
juror, II am the man who COM
nitted the murder. 1t was not the
man who was tried this morning.
From knowing all the circumstan,
ces in the case, | pointed out to
the jury various discrepancies in
the evidence and got them to bring
in 4 verdict of rot guilty. To-
morrow | leave for America, but
make this confession to you in case
anybody else should be charged
with this murder"

A pastor Of a church at Dight>
On, Mass, has got himself in a
scrape, not because he has done
anything wrong, but for the rea,
sOn he thought other people were
doing wrong. He issued an orr
der, it appears, prohibiting the
members Of his congregation from
indnlging in any kissing games,
and the result was, a storm was
raised about his ears which threat
ems to sweep him out of the church
and the town. The cid maids
who haye-no earthly hope of get>
ting1a kiss except in such games
as "Forfeits" or "Copenhagen"
are as mad as hornets and have de-
cIared that fhe Rev. Mr.. Dyer is
entirely too fresh. 1t is plain that
if the pastor hopes to again become
solid with his dock that he will
have to do little hugging and
kissing on his own account.

About Chan &c in Representation.

NHV1t Nhah &c IN representation,
In view of the fact that the
tn is at hand for the taking oft he
new census, and that represented
ton IN the state legislature is has,
ed upon the constantly Increasing
population in the counties, much
interest is being manifested
"bout possible changes to be
bought about by c,nsus returns.
The state constitution declars that
she six most populous counties
shall be entitled to three Represents
taiives each and thetwenty six com.
ing next in population to two rep
resentatives each. By the legisla~
tire that meets first after the GEN.
Fus is taken IN appointment act
shall be passed, naming the first
Fix and the next twenty>six eoun-
ties. For an example, when the
present constitution went into e.
feet Houston county was by the
then next census one of the first
six in point Of population. The
census If 1880 showed that Floyd
county had, since 1870, become
one ofthe first six, ard that Hous>
ton dropped to seventh place. So
the legislature of fSS0A81 passed
ali act that Floyd county should
he entitled to three representatives
and thst Houston which had three
should have only two. Ever
since this act has been of force, and
in the legislature that assemblies
this fall Floyd will have three rep
reseEtives and Houston two.
But the next legislature before
their term expires, in 81, will
have the census figures and pass a
new appointment act, and changes
made will effect the next legislature
the one to be elected in '92.
Counties near the "dead-line' are
growingclose now. Competition is
sharp. Strangers are welcome.
Even the darkies are received
dguratively, with open arms.
Every county, with any chance at
coming in the first six or the next
twentS.six is scheming to increase
its population. BY the last cen
Eus the hindmost of the twenty
six was Putnam, and the next was
Morgan-an adjoining county
Now the Morgan county people
claim to havemort than Putnam, and
say they are going to have two rep
resentatives. A lively local inter-
est is felt in the matter. One pro-
gressive MOagan citizen wants the
county to offer a reward for the
greatest family increase in the
