WHAT WE SHOULD DO. .

To see the vast amount of cotton
coming Into Marietta daily, suggests
the thought, how great benefit
cotton factory would be to Marietta
and Cobb county, if one were estab-
lished here, to utilize this vast pro-
duct that comes from our fields. To
see it shipped to Northern and East
ern mills, costing freight there, and
then manufactured and shipped
back to US i'll goods, paying freight
on its retarn, shows the extra cost
we pay, when it all could be saved
and go into the pockets of our peo-
pie. Until the manufacture of our
own cotton into fabrics at home is
more generally carried on, then our
people will continue to be contribul
tors to the enrichment of Northern
and Eastern capitalists. Where the
raw material is produced, is the
place where it should be handled,
manufactured and sold, and then the
aggregate wealth of such home pro-
duction, will remain at home, build
up home, and enrich home people.
By industrial development, wealth
would be created, and our town
would have something to ship out to
bring back money. The employment
Of operatives would distribute this
wealth among us, and add to the
general business growth and pros
perity. 1t is the proper way to
build up town. A cotton factory,
an oil mill and fertilizer factory
would use the cotton in it's compo-
nent parts and would prove incen>
tives and stimulus to solid develop
ment and progress. Every environ
ment is favorable to such a consum-
nation, and our people are standing
in their own light when they fail to
make such investments.

NESBITT TALKS TO FARMERS.

Hon. r. 4. Nesbitt, commissioner
of agriculture, addressed large
audience at the Hazlehurst academy
Monday morning. He devoted most
of his time to explaining to the
farmers the benefits they derived
from his department. He spoke
very plainly in opposition to one
class arrayiug itself against another,
stating that the farmer and mer-
chant, lawyer and doctor, were all
alike interested in maintaining
good government and developing
the great resources OF the state. He
deplored the tendency of so many
people to leave the farm and go to
the towns, illustrating his thought
by citing the decline of Egypt and
Babylon, Persia and Rome, when
their citizons torsook their farms
aad crowded into the great cities,
and left agriculture in the hands of
the most ignorant. 1t left a deep
impression.
He urged the advantages ofinten-
sive farming, contrasting the condi-
ton of the middle part of the state,
where the farmers still try to lun
immense plantations, with the north,
ern part where the farms were small.
On concluding the distinguished
gentleman was rendered vote of
thanks. Col. Nesbitt left with Col.
James Il. Denton for Douglas and
from thence will go to Waresboro.

TUESDAY, OCTOBER 8 1891.
A ROMAN ALTAR IN ENGLAND.
1t Is Unearthed in the Little Town of
chichester, County of Durham.

1t Is Unearthed in the Little Town OF
chichester, County of Durham.
There is a well-known Roman site in
the county of Durham, on the banks OF
the river Wear, about mile north OF
the Episcopal town of Bishop Auck-
land; it is called Chichester. A few
years ago, says the London Illustrated
News, some interesting discoveries
were made by John Proud, local So
Icitor and antiquary; but remarkable
addition has been made by the unearth-
ing of an altar on the land of j. e.
Newly, the present resident of Bin
chester hall, who is now having water
pipes laid to supply his household
This altar is of large size, four feet
three inches in height by one foot two
and one-half inches in breadth and one
foot one-half inch in depth, and it is in
excellent preservation. 1t has sculp-
tured on its sides the four principal sac
rificial implements, the ''securis," or
ak, the cutter" or knife, the ''patera, +"
or dish, and the 'prefericulum, or jug.
Besides this it bears an inscription,
which, expanding the abbreviated
words, is read as follows: 'Jovi Optimo
Maxine, ct Matribus Ollototis, sive
Transmarinis, Pomponius Donatus,
Benefciarius Consulis, Pro Salute Sua
ct Suorum, Votum solvit lbenti an
imo." In English the inscription signi-
fies: ''To Jupiter, the Best and Great
est, and to the Ollototian, or Transma-
rine, Mothers, Pomponius Donatus,
Beneficiary of the Consul, in gratitude
for the safety of himself and those be-
longing to him, has paid his VOW with a
willing mind"
The curious thing about this inscrip-
ton is the title given to the mother god
desses. They were favorite objects of
worship at Vinovia (the ancient name
of Binchester), which was Roman
town garrisoned by soldiers
drawn from the Vettonians, people of
Spain dwelling in the regions which
now form the province of Salamanca
There is town or village now in Spain
called Olot, but it is at distance from
the Vittonian country, in the northeast
corner, near the Mediterranean sea and
the frontier of France. 1t is conceiv-
able that the consular benefciaries and
others who erected these affairs came
from that region, and worshiped, in the
Brigantian territory in Britain, the del
ties they had learned to venerate in
their distant home ''across the sea-"
