Hon. John H, Reagan of Texas,
the only surviving member of JEFF
ferson Davis cabinet, delivered a
memorable address to the United
Confederate Veterans at FIT. Worth
Tuesday, the 21st inst, in which he
strongly advocated the correct max
ing of history with regard to the
civil war, especially as relating to
the cause leading up to it. He very
correctly said that the war was
caused by slavery, and that if sla-
very was a sin it should have been
abolished at the expense of the gov,
ernment. 1t was nothing but rank
robbery to free the slaves without
paying for them. BY this robbery
the south lost over billion dollars.
AS might" d oes not make fright, y
because the south was beaten in
war, the north had no right to re-
fuse payment for the slaves.

Charlie Reeves put on sale today,
in front of his undertaking shop,
a horse which he secured for the
payment of services rendered at
some past date. The horse had
two sides to him, and as a matter of
course, had two prices or two val
ues, On the side which showed up
the best-that side free from knots
and scabs-the card said will sell
for $40, but on the other side Of
the animal, where knots and wind
gals and scabs were thick and the
absence Of an eye showed plainly,
the price was S6, with a rebate of
one dollar to the purchaser for
making the trade. The animal
was very poor, in fact mere frame,
but Charlie explained that the ami
NAL had been fed on excelsior before
he procured him and that he would
improve if bought by some good
Christian who would feed him on
pound cake and chocolate candy.
If you want such an animal, see

To day the south produces on an
average J0,0O0,000 to 11,000, 900
bales of cotton, representing, in
Guiding the cotton seed, valuation
of from $35O,OO0, 600 to $4O0, 900, 900,
says the Baltimore News. This
enormous crop is produced on per
cent of the total area and of the
cotton region. Of the entire cot
ton.growing territory of the south,
only 20 per cent is how in improved
land. 1t is possible, with new land
added to the cotton growing area
and with more scientific cultivation,
to increase our cotton production
to 1OO,0OO,OOO bales. 1t will be
many years before we can conceive
of the production of such a crop,
but there is every probability that
within the next twenty years the
world will be demanding of the
south at least 10000, 900 to 5000 :
bales, and that the south will pro-
duce it with as much ease as it is
today producing its 10000, 900 bales.
