flute them. lie, through his sergeants, Is
charged with mlsmanagement of the pen

PRAISE FOR ATLANTA.
Massachusetts Farmers Look Upon
the City as a Leader.

Boston, Mass, Feb. 4.-The delegates
from Massachusetts in the Farmers ma
tional congress at Atlanta, Ca. have
made their report to Gov. Greenhalge,
by whom they were appointed. The re-
port acknowledges the courtesy OF the
appointment and sketches briefly the his
tory of the Farmers national congress.
The report in closing gives a graphic
survey of the history and growth of At
lanta and makes the following natter-
ing comment and prophecy concerning its
prospects for the future: 1T is to At
lanta with the influences radiating from
it, that we may look for the life ana
vigor for the regeneration of the south
and to create through its people a new
state of things for the whole people
white and black-of the former slave
states. No other place in the south is
freighted with such possibilities for the
good of that part of our country as are
contained in the wealth, enterprise, ed
ucational development and minded
ness of the people of Atlanta
I'VE believe that the Farmers national
congress is doing a grand work in that
direction, as well as for the interests of
agriculture, and should be maintained
and aided with proper substantial sup
port of all the states Of the union"
