A DAY IN THE COUNTRY.

Last Sunday, in company with our friend, Mir. Ed. Windes, we paid our mutual friend, Mr. l.. D. Owens, who lives three mile North of this city, visit.
 Arriving at 10 a. m. we found our young friend, MT. J. D. Me Cloy, already, on hand. He had rolled out on his wheel before old Sol became too lavish with his shine.
 The first hour was spent in a walk over Mir. Owens farm. or chard, vineyard and pastures. He has, what might be appropriately termed model farm, and believes in diversity to it's fullest extent. Mir. Owens raises his own horses and mules, has fine flock of sheep, big drove of goats and a nice buch of hogs-all of improv- ed breeds. He has large or chard, filled with ripe and de- licious fruit, consisting of apples, peaches, pears and plums, besides a vineyard con taining all the best varieties of grapes. The vines are very full and the fruit is be- ginning to ripen. He thinks he will gather about one hundred bushels of grapes this season.
 He, also, has two large ponds, or artificial lakes, which afford an abundance of stock.water and plenty of fish for family use.
 Turning our footsteps to the fields we find. first, 50 or 50 acres of extra fine corn, then about 70 acres of good cotton-some of the best we have seen this season-all in good fix, and growing rapidly. He has several acres in sorghum. of diffeent varieties; some already ripe and ready to cut and other kinds that will ripen on until frost. He has, also, a fine patch of La. cane. some of the finest to- bacco ever grown in this country, two acres in sweet potatoes, sev- enty-fve bushels of Irish potatoes dug and in his cellar, enough large onions stored away to last him q year. He has lot of extra-fne artichokcs and few rows of sun. flowers, the heads of which (many of them) would not go in d water bucket.
 In passing through his field We noticed some stalks of corn with ears standing out on either side like the horns of Texas steer, and some of them would have measured six feet, from tip of one ear to tip of the other, clean across, including the shanks.
 MT. Owens has hit upon the cor. rect plan of farming. He raises what he eats and has plenty of i, and that of the very best.
 Returning to the shady retreat of the gallery we found the fines, of watermelons and canteloupes, Gall grown on the place) cool and nice and ready to be opened. Our party soon fell to wors and devourei several slices, which were especially enjoyed after ,h.

error by confounding advocacy of bimetaIlism with support of un- limited coinage. l advocated the former, for some time doubted, and for two years at least have opposed the latter.
 You are pleased to say editori- ally: Judge Boatner has never been an advocate of the free and unlimited coinage of silver, as con- tended by the populites and west ern mine-owners."
 On August 28, 1893, somewhat less than two years before June 18th, 1895, (the date of the above utterance of Mr. Boatner) that gentleman, sitting just in front of me ia,the House of RepreseHta tives, voted for the following amendment offered by Mir. Bland, to the bill to repeal the purchas- ing clause of the Sherman silver bill, towit;
 "Provided, that the holders of silver bullion of the value of $50 or more, and not too base for the operations of the hints, shall be entitled to deposit the same for coinage at the hints of the United States, and to have the same coin ed into legal-tender standard sil- yer dollars of 4l2 l-2 grains of standard silver to the dollar, on same terms and conditions on which gold bullion is now deposit ed and coined.
 "That silver certificates shall be issued on such dollars in the man ner now provided by law for issu- ing of certificates on standard sil- yer dollars"
 So it would seem Charley's chronology is slightly at fault as to when he ceased to doubt, and then to oppose, unlimited coinage of silver. It may be that his con- version to sound money" dates from Judge Roses great speech in the case of the Filhoil heirs, some months ago in the Federal Court at Little Rock.
 Inasmuch as the Bland amend ment, above quoted, provided for the free and unlimited coinage of silver at a ratio ot Is to l, and re- ceived the votes of Jerry Simpson and every other populist in the House ot Representatives, as well as the vote of MT. Boatner, it is difficult for the ordinary mind to dlstingish between the gentle mans advocacy of the free and un- limited coinage of silver, and that Of these popnlists; but to the learn ed and austute editor of the Ga zette, looking through gold tinted speetaeles, no doubt it is clear as mud.
 Yours for free coinage and the people,

A Big Match Game of Base Ball.

Perhaps, the biggest game of base ball ever played in South Eastern Arkansas, came off at Hamburg, on last Friday evening between Hamburg's select nine and the Monticello team. The game was the result of challenge from the Hamburg players. Our boys got themselves, hurriedly, together, jumped into two-horse wagon and went down and clean ed the challengers from the face of the earth. The score stood, at the close of the 9th inning 22 for Monticello to 13 for Hamburg. There were five or six hundred people out to see the game, and a great many were, doubtless, sadly and previously disappointed to see their chosen braves so decently and cleverly licked up by the "klds" of the metropolis of South Eastern Arkansas. The best of feeling, however, prevailed, and our boys returned, profuse in the praise Of their vanquished nei gh- bors.

Nettleton, of the Pine Bluff Commercial College, was visitor to our city last week Prof. Nettleton had charge of the Commercial Department of the Searcy College for the past two years, where he gave universal satisfaction.

Here is the golden opportunity for the young people of s. E. Ark. and many oi them will no doubt avail them selves of it.

Letter From Congressman Neill.

To the Editor of the Gazette
 Batesville, July 6th.-You seem to ta ke great comfort in the letter of Hon. Chas. J. Boatner of Louis jana, published in your issue of the 3rd inst. as you give three col umns of the Gazette to MT. Boat ner's somewhat labored effort to prove, among other things, that it would be great wrong to the bondholders to compel them to re- ceive payment of their bonds in coin of the United States of the standard value of July If, 1870, although this stipulation is printed in the face of every one of the bonds. and in the law under which the bonds were issued.
 The Representatives of the peo. pie in the Congress of the United States did not agree with the Gazette and Hon. Boatner, when, in 1878, the Senate, by voto of 43 to 22, and the House of Repre- sentatives, by vote 1S9 to 79, passed the following concurrent resolution, introduced by Senator Stanley Matthews of Ohio:
 Be it resolved by the Senate (the House of Representatives con- curing therein). That all bonds of the United States issued or authorized to be issued nndcr tho said acts of Congress herein be fore recited are payable, principal and interest, at the option of the Government of the United States, in silver dollars, of the coInage of the United States, containing 4l2 l-2 grains each ot standard silver; and that to restore to its coinage such silver coins, as n legal tender in payment of said bonds, princi- pal and interest, is not in violation of the public faith nor in deroga- tion of the rights of the public creditor.
 The resolution spoke the senti- ment of n large majority of the people of the United States then as it does in my opinion today, notwithstanding a few people have like Uncle Josiah Patterson, re ceived new light, and others have yielded, some to the bland ishments, and still others to the bullying of the gold monometal ists and the bondholders back ed by the administration at Washing ton. MT. Boatner uses the follow. ing language:
