THE SOUTHERN AGRICULTURAL
SYSTEM MUST CHANGE,

The proposition to plant one third
less cotton, says the Agricultural
Journal, is temporary expedient
and does not contemplate perma-
nent change in our system of agri-
culture. Our system ought to grad
ually change from one crop to d.
versi6ed farming to the production
of all articles for which our soil and
climate are adapted for domestic
consumption and foreign demand.
All agricultural products consumed
in the south, for which our soil and
climate are adapted, should be pro-
duced mere and as much more as we
can rroftably dispose of.
A radical change in our system at
once is not advisable, as preparation
is necessary to make the change
without loss.
Stock raising should be added to
our system and increase according
to the ability Of ecch farmer to
properly care for. The change, as
suggested, does not contemplate any
great outlay at any on time, nor will
it necessarily cause a reduction of
the cotton crop until the lards can
be gradually pasturate. Southern
farmers are not financially in con-
dition to make the change, except
by degrees, rs they are in debt and
without experience in stock raising
and the production of many of the
crops that the change of system con-
templates. A gradual addition of
other crops and live stock and their
increase would not likely depress
prices or cause loss.
We are familiar with the condi-
ton of southern farmers and know
the difficulties attending any at
tempted change of their system, and
would not advise a change which
they are not in condition to make.
A change of system is imperative,
but each farmer must be the Judge
of his ability to make it.
Cotton has been the regulator of
southern agriculture, its guiding
star to allure southern farmers on
to expectations never realized. It's
a mirage seen by them in the spring
that vanishes in the fall, like the
mirage OF water, tree and grass seen
by the traveller in the desert.

What Shakespeare Might Have Said.

very likely he would have said
something similar, if he were living
in this 10Th century, when SO MANY
suffer untold agonies from indiges-

on to say that man must be fool

would put an end to the "pangs and

All the stanchions on the starboard side
were carried away. The shock that fol-
lowed the crash threw several passengers
out of their berths, and some excitement
prevailed Many did not wait to dress
before hurrying on deck TO learn the
cause of the trouble. The ripping of the
timbers and the continued humping, as
the two vessels repeatedly came together
increased the alarm, and the officers of

CARTERET CLUB.

There is much talk among the members
OF the Carteret Club OF initiating grand
card or billiard tournaments among the
Carterets, Jersey Citysand Pailnas. Such
tournament could be of unusual inter-
est to club men, and would create consia-
cradle excitement among lovers of such
sport. The interest which clab men gem
orally took in the billiard match between
Ven Saun and Staples is an Indication OF
the interest which would be taken in u
similar match in which each of these
clubs was represented. Then card
tournament between the leading whist
fiends of these clubs would make a great
sensation. Let the tournament come oil,
by all means.

through Cooper place saw the fight and
carefully removing her 'sspecs" she ex-
clHimed:-

The poor little cripple turned his sad,
wistful eyes on the kindly old woman
with gratitude aud then he raised aloft
his crutch and brought 1t down on the
big boys head with a vigor that N ade
him see stars IN every direction. The
broken headed boy boo-hooed with the
energy displayed by a German band and
ran away, while the poor. sad eyed

PALMA CLUB

The Ladies' Reception of the Palma
Club, which was held on Thursday even
lug. was one of the most successful affairs
OF this kind which has been held in this
city in some time. These receptions Of
the Palma boys are very popular with
the ladies and are always well attended.
The girls are always sure to enjoy them
selves for the Palma boys have the knack
of making them feel perfectly at home,
and when the girls leave they leave the
CLUB house they always declare that they
never had better time in their lives.
The present efficient library com mittee
expires with the present Board of Trus-
tees. Under the chairmanship of Mr..
Nelson Edge the committee has been of
great service to the club. Over 300
standard volumes have been added to the
library under the committees adminis-
tration, and they have made the library
one of the most attractive features of the
clubhouse. Il is to be hoped that the
new committee, whoever it may be COM
posed of, will nuke as good record.
The riding class has now completed its
indoor work and win hereafter devote its
talents to eqestrianism in the open air.
The number in attendance upon the
practice rides Of the club seldom, if ever,
reached below nineteen, and Professor
Stein and Mr.. Hexamer, the proprietor of
the academy, are very proud Of the Polma
Riding Club. 1t IS seldom, Mr.. Hexa-
mer says, that a number of riders make
such rapid progress as the Palmas have
made, and finer body Of euuestrians
would be hard to fnd anywhere. Here
after the members of the club
VIII take their exercise in the open air
and the ladies of Hudson County will
have ample opportunity during the COM
ing summer to admire their equestrian
ism as they go flying through the coun-
W on the backs of Mr.. Hexamer's fiery
steeds. The seasons work will be wound
up with ride by the entire club TO some
resort along the road, where grand din
ner will be partaken of. On that occas-
ion, it is said, that Joe Totten will deliver
an address upon the difference between
the free, untrampled riding of the wild
west and the etEete equestrianism OF the
