An ABSURD ASSERTION.

"The few very old families of Amer
lea have yet to produce q man or
woman who, in point Of achievement,
or in active morality or intellect, shall
leave a strong impress on our nation
Ella Wheeler Wilcox.
Mrs. Wilcox writes the above sen.
tence in q long article arguing that
two or three generations of culture
and elegance are enervatlng to the
physical, moral and mental nature OF
a family, and must perforce result In
deterioration. Whatever of truth may
be argued out Of the elements and In.
fuences which dominate this theory,
there are limitations Of conditions
which Sister Wilcox has not reckoned
with. For instance, what Americans
achieved greater things, or were moral
ly and Intellectually stronger, or made
greater q impression upon American
history, than George Washington and
Robert E. Lee? The "old families
smitten by Mrs. Wilcox seem in hei
mind to have "van" before their names
and to be of Knickerbocker origin
Possibly her observations are true Al
concerns them, but she should remenl'

LIVING EIFEssEs CHEAPESED.
TAppeal- l-Avalanche.l

Though a bale of cotton is worth
from 50 to $40 less than it was at this
time last year. yet 1t is frequently re-
marked by observant people that the
sum realized for q bale of cotton at
the present has largely more purchas-
ing power for nearly all food essen
tials than it had year ago. For ex-
ample. balls of cotton will now real
ize from $S5 to $Ss, against $40 to
$45 last year. Yet. In the purchase of
barrel Of flour, so cents can be saved,
while in a pound of cured meat to
s cents Is saved, and in buying pota-
toes from is to 20 cents per bushel 10
gained. The difference in grain, aside
from wheat, also in sugar and other
leading commodities, Is not 30 great,
but clothing Is cheaper, SO are rents,
and likewise almost everything In the
way of the necessaries Of life. II may
interest many readers who bemoan
the present depressed condition OF
affairs to make comparison Of prices
on some Of the leading commodities
with that Of last year, as taken from
the books OF our merchants Of actual
sales made, aud which in the main is
a correct reflex of the situation.
The Greenville times. [volume] (Greenville, Miss.) 1868-1917, 1894-03-24

II will be seen that, while cotton is
l 5-8 cents per pound cheaper than
last year, other goods are much lower.
II may bo noted, too, that the majority
of this crop of cotton has been dis
posed Of at better prices than now
prevail. The above figures show
marked reductions for some articles,
as, for instance, l-8 cents per pound
on bacon $500 per barrel on mess
pork, and nails so cents per keg.
Mules aud horses, dry goods, boots
and shoes, hats anu furniture are all
reported lower than ever. Planters
seem to have at last realized that to
be successful they must raise their
own meat aud bread at home. There
have been more hogs raised In the
South this past year than at any time
since the war, ana the effect Is mani
fest In the decline In values. There
Is more demand for grain than there
should be, but 1t was not altogether
the fault of the farmers, who planted
last year sufliciency to do them any
ordinary year, but the excessive drouth
that prevailed injured the crop fully
30 per cent IN this vicinity.
To sum up the situation, this section
has little to complain Of, as everything
is low, and many articles cheaper than
over krown. The new planting sea-
son starts with low-priced goods, and
1t Is encouraging TO believe that the
worst Is over, aud that prosperity Is
bound to follow such q condition
Considering the low price of wheat
and realizing what straits Western
farmers are in who depend on wheat
there is no reason why the Southern
people should not cease complaints
aud 20 TO work with new vim, con.
graduating themselves npon being In
better shape than the people Of other
sections. And with a good start
already made toward new crop, and
q climate unsurpassed, with the proper
effort put forth, this section cannot
fail to be prosperous. Raise plenty
of meat and bread, aud the farmers
can then withstand low prices fol
cotton.

K0ssUTH.

Louis Kossuth died in Turin on the
goth, aged 92 years. Forty years ago
the name of Kossuth ruug around the
world as the type of patriotism and
the hope of nation struggling for its
freedom in the grasp Of q stronger
power. Especially in the South was
Kossuth revered and sympathized
with, parallels being drawn botweon
the condition of his beloved Hungary
and our own land. Failure over
whelmed every effort Of Kossuth, and
at last, yielding to despair, he retired
to Italy, where be spent the remainder
of his long life in condition of volun-
tary exile and morose secluslon. So
closely has he kept his hermitage that
the world had almost forgotten him,
save for an occasional newspaper par
hBEhpu. lc iifou w SCI MS hiCuuo
aud fellow-patrlots one by one die and
be forgotten, 10 see his country accept
the inevitable aud prosper and grow
happy under the government he fought
and hated. He was the sacrifice of
Hungarian patriotism the Intellectual
martyr of bis country's cause, as En-
met was of Ireland and Kosciusko of
Poland.
His last years were embittered by
what he conceived to be treachery and
a fckle ipgratitudc, and he stood alone
in the world, sad monument of a
cause abandoned, aud of hopes and
hates in which the rest of mankind
had no share. His country remem-
bered him with love and tardy honors
after death, and the black drapery of
grief hung every Hungarian city while
all that was mortal of Kossuth was
inferred with pomp at Buda Pesih.

Black Ec0n0mlst.

At the recent meeting of negro
farmers at Tuskegee, Alay colored
land owner who was born a slave
made speech In the course Of which
he said:
A mortgage is thing dat don't
sleep. She's lyiu' in wait aud she's
CROWN when you don't think. You
see the waive not walking in at the
door, an you say: aWhat you gwine

It's own people are feared of it?
The speaker explained his success in
accumulatipg property by saying that
he was yes" 'termined fer ter hev
somethin'." In his homely dialect he
talked as sound economy as Benjamin
Franklin ever put into his essays and
maxims.
If there are many such negro farm
ers in the black belt, that region will
some day be very prosperous. When
an ex-slave can make himself small
capitalists and talk in the fashion Of
this Alabama negro farmer there is
hope for the entire race. The negroes
need not look to Africa as land OF
promise. They can be happy and
prosperous here.--Atlanta Constitu-

THE DECLINE or TIE PEACH.

Easton, Md.-AbOut half of the
peach trees in Talbot county have been
destroyed this year BY their owners
because of the uncertain features Of
the peach crop in recent years. Few
young trees we're planted last year and
fewer will be set out this year, hard
fact tor the nurserymen. The land from
which the peach trees are removed viii
go to tomatoes aud other vegetables,
grain and grass.
There Is an Interesting story OF the
introduction of the peach into America
more than 200 years ago. About three
miles from Esston there Is an estate
called Peach Blossom, which is at the
head of creek of the same name. II
was the sest of the historical Robins
family, who came from England and
took that estate when Maryland was
very young. The direct descendants
of the first Robins, of Maryland, live
now in Philadelphia. The surname
no longer exists in Talbot county,
though 1t appears in the Christian
names ofmembers oflhe Goldsborough
the Holiday aud other families. One
Of the family, Thomas Robins, was q
great traveller, and roamed all over the
accessible regions of the world. In
Persia he found the peach, fruit
then unknown in England and Amer
ica, and brought TO Maryland with
him some peach stones, which he plant
ed on the, estate his brother had Just
settled upon. When the trees bios
somed the flowers were so much ad-
mircd that the name Of the estate was
changed from Arcadia to Peach Bios
SOM If there ever was q time when
this story was not believed 1t is so far
back in the past as not to be located
A stone tablet on the Peach Blossom
estate once gave the date Of the plant
Ing OF the peacn stones, but 1t has dis
appeared In the general wreck and
ruin OF the place, whose glories have
departed.-N. 0. Picayune.
In the carly chronicles Of Mississip-
pl, il is recorded that the first settlers
of the Tombigbee country found the
Chickasaw Indians in possession OF
the peach also the hog. These fruits
were introduced, so reads the legend,
by the Spanlards in their Homeric
search, led by the prince of chivalry,
DeSoto, for the Ell Dorado. This was
more than century before Maryland
soil had ever been disturbed by the
implements of civilization. DeSoto
might have omitted, or eaten, his hogs
as wherever there is peach orchard
the hog may be trusted to break in.

the lieutenant generals stated as liv-
