The percentage of the cost of collec-

of spirits produced, resulting in an in

and the fees of gaugers We're largely in
excess Of the amount estimated when
the appropriation was made. To meet
the deficiency an additional appropria-
ton of $4,000 has been asked.
The receipts from spirits during the
year amounted to $81 ,6e7, 3T5 as against

Methods of Swimming.
june25, d&w.2

have devoted rv life to the problem OF
swimming, and ! am egotistical enough to
think that | can give some points as to the
| best methods Of swimming. One of the
| most important strokes either in fancy
swimming or racing is the American over
hand side stroke, which ! invented 1t is
| really the fastest stroke that can be used
1t is quite different from the English over
hand stroke, and in the difference lies the
secret Of the additional speed that is OBJ.
tanned. English swimmers bury themselves
deeply in the water, and sink from one to
two yards under the surface in bringing
the hand over, which retails their progress
through the water.
To use my stroke lie in the water on the
right side Mt IN angle of about 30 degs The
water covers the right eye while the left
eye, the nose and the mouth are out Of the
water The body is propelled through the
water by the legs and feet, and in this
stroke the ankles are strongly brought into
use.
The force is obtained from the instep of
the right foot and the sole of the left The
legs are brought up and placed in position
like the letter V, and when the Kick is
made they are brought quickly together,
the right foot being twisted to bring the
instep against the water After the kick
is made, and while the legs are being
brought up again, the right hand, which
is extended beyond the head like cut
water, is brought down to the hip. When
this hand is going up again the left hand
is carried over the head and right shoulder
dipped into the water and used as paddle
The right arm is used to steady the body,
and force is attained by the left arm aud
the legs. When the left arm is coming
down the kick is made. In learning this
stroke first of all learn the motions; speed
IAN be worked mp afterward. From thirty
eight to forty five strokes a minute is
high rate of speed to be attained. Gus

BRANDON BARKsDALE, PROPS.
The Hand Writing on the wall.

Those who read the papers must
be dull OF comprehension if they fail
to sniff the breeze Of the mighty
revolution that is going on in the
minds OF the people. The nomina-
ton of Mr.. Buchanan, the farmers
representative for governor of this
State, was a surprise to everybody.
The Alliance people themselves
hardly expected such result, and
the opposition was sure that unless
he could poll a majority of the con-
vention on the first ballot he would
be defeated. But the solidity and
firm determination exhibited by his
followers, never before witnessed,
struck terror to all opposition, and
there was no possible chance TO form
combination against him, and there
was graceful yielding from every
quarter-a willingness to let the far
mers have their way.
The laboring classes comprehend
that constitutional liberty is fast
slipping from the grasp of the PEG
pie, and that the country has fallen
into the hands of a selfish aristccra-
cy, and they have become desperate
and determined to overthrow this
power through peaceful means by a
change of rulers and reverse of leg
islation. This is why the farmers
fought so desperately at Nashville
for their man, and other classes see
ing this fell into line.
The farmers will do no harm; they
cannot hurt other classes without
hurting themselves. They are hon
est in politics as in private matters,
and good may be expected to follow.
The same spirit that characterized
the order in the Nashville conven-
ton animates them throughout the
South and West, and the "blocks of
five" business cannot prevail against
the order in '92.

New YORK, July 31.-Over a million

This has given rise to much comment.
because it has been predicted that as
soon ITS the silver bill was passed this
country would be flooded with the silver
of foreign countries. The actual facts
have been precisely the reverse. A
month or so before the passage of the
silver bill London sent over a million
and half of ounces of silver bullion to
this country.
This was not because the Fnelishmen
thought the silver bill would pass. hut
on the contrary because they thought it
would not BASS, and they wished to
profit by the higher prices over here.
Now the stream has set in the other way
and it bids fair to continue until the de.
mand for silver here TO meet the require
ments Of the new silver bill becomes
greater than the demand over there In
June, 1889, we exported ~, sos, 42l silver
