To 23rd October bales. To HOth October -V*' bah s. To Cth November sfiTi bales. To 13th November I'll bales. Kstlmated on platform JC5> bales Total receipts !?l"l bales. The markets arc well supplied with cotmn seed, but owing to the low price of oil. the price of seed has been reduced to isj.j cents* per bushel. Cotton held up well all last week, and reached as high as S?% cents, but yesterday there was a depression. The highest price paid yesterday was 95-8, with it downward tendency from even these figures. The merchants have had a better trade this Fall than they have had at this season for many years. Last Saturday especially, was a busy day in the stores. The remark was made that the trade was better than it was ever known to be on a circus day. The average sales in October, wo believe, are about fifty per cent greater tliun during the corresponding month of last year. Up to this time In November the trade has been phenomenally good. The collections were never better. It seems that everybody will "pay out," and that scores of people will pay debts of long standing. Already debtors are relieving their farms of mortgages, and tbe supply of money waiting Investment or for loan was never greater. As a result, tbe price of farming lands has gone up, and will go higher, while iutcrcsi will likely be lower In some instances. The per cent of cotton sold in this market last week, which was packed in light bagging, was larger than for any similar period since the opening of the Fall trade. The sales, last week of bales In jute, would not average more than from sixty to eighty In the one hundred?the balance being In the light bagging. Heretofore th?- sales in light bagging would average r~?baps from five to ten in the one hundred bales. The increase of per cent during the last week over former receipts In cotton bagging may not bo attributable to any renewed zeal on the part of planters in the use of light bagging, but tbe Increase Is due, we believe, mainly on account of the action of the Long Cane sub-Alliance. They being a well-to-do and thrifty people were enabled to act in perfect accord with tbe Instructions of theAlliance, and kept their cotton until the light bagging could be had, while the brethren in other localities in some instances? from their financial circumstances?were forced to sell earlier so that they might settle their pressing debts. As a rule the merchants and others urged debtors to sell while tbe price was high, and when the light bagging could not be had. The enforced action of debtors generally around the village, which compelled them to use the heavy bagging and to sell early in the season when the price was highest, furnishes one more strong argument against the whole credit system. In the first place, the planter was urged to sell when he did not wish to do so, and was thus-compelled to use Jute bagglns. In the next place, the ability of the thrifty Long Cane farmers, enabled them to hold on to their cotton until such times us tbe Alliance thought best for them to sell. The better price which the debtor brethren received, and their inability to use the cotton bagging?which the Long Cnno farmer wjva uvuuu iv uoc?no pitaumt, nuo vumv much to crcate dissatisfaction even among the ranks of the best and truest members ol the Alliance. If all go into a combination to use light bagging, and only a small number are able to carry out the ugreement, the arrangement throws a heavy burden on those who are able?but none the less willing?to Hubmlt to the loss in the use of light bagging. For this reason, we urged some time aw the Justice of those who sold early, contribV . utlng something in money to make up the losses which the other brethren : ustaiiud by sticking to the rules of the order. Long Cane members obeyed the instructions ol the Alliance, as to the sale of cotton and the use of light bagging. In this particular they seem to be an exception to the rule. Without knowing the exact amount of cotton which has been packed in light bagging? we would suppose that Long Cane has used a very large per cent of all the light bagging that has been sold In this market. WLiie light bagging has been distributed from Abbeville to the four quarters, yet we . believe it is a fact, that some men?realizing that in the use of cotton bagging on a five hundred pound bale, at least sixteen pounds of lint would be lost?have couuted the cost, thrown their white bagging away, and bought Jute, for the simple reason that they felt unable to throw away one dollar and tifty cents on every bale so packed. W iieuever it m uscenuiuuu jiuw uio tai im-i i Is to get buck any money which he loses In packing thin year's crop, we have no doubt that the demand for light bagging will be greater, even than it Is now. We see by our exchanges, that In some sections, the planters arc seeking lo makeup the loss 1 (i the use of light bugging, by putting on an extra number of iron tics. This seems to meet with disfavor by the mill men, who have no uso for the old iron ties?if the Auffiuta Chronicle is correctly informed. Our people have not yet, as fur as we know, tried the plan of putting on extra irou ties, > but it seems that another, and a less expensive method has been adopted, in one instance, at least?namely, that of putting in the end of a bale two extra bricks. As a cotton covered bale contains some ten or fifteen pounds of extra lint, and as a brick weighs only five pounds, so two bricks would weigh only ten pounds?or enough to bring the cotton bagging up to the regular standard tare. The plan of putting In a couple of extra bricks in a bale accomplishes the same purpose as an extra iron tire or two, but what* over fuvor the iron tire plan may meet, we presume the brick plan of getting even will certainly meet with no favor anywhere. But, seriously, if a man may be allowed to put on an extra Iron tie and may increase the Jute for no other known reason than to Increase the weight, why should a man not | be allowed to tie on one or two extra bricks ! to each bale. The Iron tie and the extra jute, are put on openly, and if the brick is not concealed we do not see any more rcasoa 10 ; object to one plan than to the other. The cotton buyers would no doubt ruakf a funs If the Iron tie was packed inside, and ; for this reason, to be consistent-11 for 1101 other?they will no doubt object to the brick I being packed inside, but they should not object to the brick any more than they ob-j Ject to the extra iron tie, or the extra heavy' ? Jute, when either are put on for no other reason than to increase the weight. For our own part we are unable to see the! Justice of deducting thirty pounds from a, bale, when it is certainly known that the1 cotton bagging and iron ties weigh only about fourteen pounds. The sin of knocking off the extra sixteen pounds, which is not on the cotton, it seems to us, Is not much more reprehensible than the act of putting the brick Inside. If, however, any planter will insist on put-1 ting In enough bricks io get even with the| Liverpool Cotton men, he should sec to it ( that the end of the bale, with the bricks In it, is not turned up on the platform at the depot. The boys who play on the cotton; Hiere may dlwwver llie extra wei?;M*, and! report the same to the man who bought the] cottou. 1 r- : "'? v Mr. ^?I?W*?oti. Aii'itiu.

Last week was gala week in Charleston mid many of our people went down to the seashore, on pleasure bent, while, some may have gone for business. Thcilstof premiums awarded to Abbeville people at the Floral Fair was unusually good. If Mrs. Lawson, of our town, hail sent specimens of her beautiful Mowers, we know that she, too, would have borne off some of the honors. liut bigger than all the gala week, and all the flowers together, was the election news. The Democrats seem to have gotton on a tidal wave which brought victory to them. Our people had little thought of Democratic success in iowa, Ohio, Xew York, or elsewhere, the chief iuterest being in the result of the election in Virginia. Malione was threatening to break the ".Solid South," and he and Virginia occupied a prominent place before the country. Few of us thought of the possibility of breaking a "United North." But Malione was badly beaten, and Democratic success In other suites has sent d^may to Harrison and his followers. Harrison is now busily excusing himself of any blnine for Mahooe's defeat, and no one yet attempts to comfort Mr. Harrison for the Republican defeat which his party has sustained in other States. Ho far, it looks like Harrison and his postmasters are not winning great honors for "de party." ^ -o Yoii l>i<lu't Knutv This. Two Sundays must intervene between a notice of election, and the day of election. Hon. James Simons, in a letter to ilon. E. (i. Gray don. lias this to say 011 the subject of advising elections, which is interesting, and which furnishes interesting reading. He says: Strange to say the election law b.as 110 provision for notice of such election or how to be advertised. Hut "Immemorial usage" requires "two Sunday's" notice. This was decided in the contested election case Allen vs. Tompkins, which was elaborately and ably argued before the Committee on Privileges and Elections and passed 011 by the House. This case refers to the joint resolution of the House and Senate, espressing the views of the Legislature as to the conduct of elections, duties of managers, ?Vc., in which among oilier things it was resolved "that the managers of elections throughout the state shall give reasonable notice of the election and at least two Sunday's previous to the election." In view of the silence of the present election law, this is the only expression of the judgment of the Legislature as to what constitutes reasonable notice of the election. of course the notice is now given by the commissioners of elect ion. The notice should be at least ten days, including "two Sunday's," and ought to lie as long as they can make it. that is in this ease. The "nuujber of insertions of advertisement must depend on the reasonable discretion of II10 commission ers with reference to iiic piiuucuuouui i>upers, Ac. I have often been curious to know why "two Sunday's" previous notice was named in tlie resolution as "reasonable notice,' and in investigation found that tills isoneol the many instances where a custom survives after the reason !or its origin lias ceased. Way back In colonial times election notices were reunited to be given to the chuich wardens,and they were required to post them on the parish [ church iloors at least "twosundays" previous j to the election. It was evidently supposed that the people could be best notified by seeing the notices when they came to church and two Sundays afforded a reasonable opportunity lor Information. THINK OF THIS. Fine Syrup From Real Sugur Cane. Mr. B.F.Price, a good farmer of this county, exhibited at our office recently as fine a specimen of sugar cane as can be found anywhere, and he presented us with some molasses which he made, that is equal and exactly similur to theXeiv Orleans syrup. The stalks are very large, and it is said four of them will make a gallon of juice. lSeing impressed with the product, we asked Mr. Price to write something in reference to the cane and his mode of making molasses, he sent us the fol IU\t 1U? . Aishkvii.i.i:, S. Oct. "1,1SS9. Editor Pratt mul ISnniter : In obedience to your request I will give you my experience with sugar cane. I obtained of'Mr.J. 1$.

Jidihtr J'rrxx anil lUuincr: Your statement showing amount that I am due you for subscription lor your paper, lias been received according to request. After mature deliberation I leel that I committ fit an error in requesting you to send mc statement of amount due you up !o dale, and dircct lug you todiseonlinucsending me the J'rrxx mill llttiuier. Kneloscd please lind remittance to pay for one year's subscription, and continue to send me your paper as heretofore. Wlien the resolution was voted on in our Alliance us to whether wu should continue or discontinue taking the Alilmullc Press ami I if ouicr, I voted to discontinue, as we then thought that you were not in sympathy wiMrf tile Alliance. /' Since then, I have thought the matter over, and now believe that we made a mistake, when we passed the resolution referred to. i reaiiy ean iioliiiihk iiiui. yuu iiiieinted hi injure our cause,as it would be against all reason, (at least it seems lo me it would,) as you are as much interested in the agricultural pospcrity of the country as any oi us; lor what is our interest I might say is yours, or in other words, unless we prosper, we will not he able lo pay for a paper, and, furthermore, many of your friends and relatives are farmers. And as farming is as grand and as noh'.'eu calling as any occupation or profession that I know of, I think that all of the leading men of the editorial fraternity ought to aid us, and help rescue us irom the mer. eilcss trusts thai are being formed among the shy locks of the world, and, like vampires, arc ready to suck the last drop of our life blood. Now, in regard to the statement that yon i published ill thelVmanil llunncr sometime ago, showing the cost of Jute bagging and cotton bagging. I think that act could hardly be called a crime, as it was merely written for our consideration, and we were not forced to accept it. Wo had the privilege still to use any kind of bagging t hat we saw fit to use. Probably one reason why you could not understand why the farmers were willing to buy light bugging that cost them a high prlcc, when they could get a heavier bagging for less money, was because it Is the first case on record, where a farmer was ever known to be willing to pay a high price for an article, wlien lie could purchase another that would answer for tlie same purpose, for less money. Your view of the ease, I presume, was a matter of dollars and cents. Of course we are aware of the difference In the cost of cotton bagging and Jute bagging, and how much each weighs, and how much we are losing per bale, Ac., but we are willing to make the sacrifice, In order to defeat the J uto Trusts that we are fighting. We have not lorgotten how we were caught a year ago. when we were unprepared for them, and how they squeezed us, and In all probability they would squeeze us harder and tighter this time. If they had a chance. Why. last year when they were squeezing us so tight, at times we almost imagined that we had on corsets, but now since Alliance banal us lias caused the price of Jute to tumble, doubtless those who are using Jute now. feel as if they had on motherhubbards. If the Alliance had not adopted a substitute tor jute bageing. there is no telling what we would have to pay for it. I have bought ail Alliance bageing now except one titty yard roll of pieced jute, that was used last year. 1 would not have bought it, but I could not get auy other at that time. I would even buy Alliance ties, if there were any on the market for sale. Now, it you will excuse me for referring to the resolutions again, I will say that I have con versed with some of the prominent gentleman of Ninety-Six and vicinity, on the subject, and most of them are meinbors of the Alliance, and they do not hesitate at all, in saying that we acted unwisely. Now, 1 think that when a man feels that he has made a mistake, that he ought to correct it as soon as ho discovers it. And as to those who still desire their paper discontinued, I will snv that this is their business, and not mine. 1 do not wish to appear at all otlieious, or conspicuous in the papers, as 1 am very well aware that writing is not my fort, and that 1 have very little, or (I might say) no talent in that direction, and in liict not much in any other direction, that I am aware of. My object in writing is, to try to get our people reconciled?that we may all have the proper feeling for one another?and to say a few words of encouragement to our young farmers that enlisted in the cause, and want to succeed. since yon published my letter of the 19th of October, I have received many congratulations from our best citizens and complimen jtary loiters from distant friends, expressing themselves as well pleased with it. One of ] the letters was from an old friend, and once ! near neighbor, that I have not seen or written to in over twenty years, who is now a very prominent, business man of Augusta, On. His letter was full o! kind and encouraging words, aud ussureing me how glad it made liim feel when he read it, and that he intended to have it published In the Chronicle, and sure enough be did so, and it was published Justus It was in the I'rean and lirniNcr. If this letter is worth thospacc in your valuable eolumns, you are ai liberty to publish it, and if It meets with Hie approval of your j many readeis. I will write a few short letters I to the young farmers, givtng them my experi i'Miee in farming from Alpha to <)mcga, or to j j the present time. Farming is to raise all kinds of stock that it will pay to raise?and to plant a diversity ot crops, t.< my idea of a model Southern farm. What I write will not be mere theory, but from actual experience and close observation, for 1 am trying to make the business a seientillc study. We are now having fine weather for harvesting our crops and sowing grain. Crops are turning out very satisfactory, and the early sown grain and ruta baggas and salkl is looking as well as any one could wish. I have one acre of land planted In ruta bagga turnips. I sowed l-arlcy on the same land that the ruta hagg...; are now crowing on, when I plowed them last, in a few weeks 1 will have the ruta bacgus pulled up, cut the tops (>(1, and house llie turnips to use all during the Winter and Spring. The turnips do ! not injure the barley any, and It will also make a fine crop. That i? raising two valuable crops on the land in one y<-ar. I uould rather have a good turnip salad patch in this Winter and .Spring, than to have a drugstore ns to health, as I consider it one of the best liver regulators that I know. The frost 1i:ik not. killed the wild clover in the I pastures and all of tin- stock is doing remarkably well for this time of the year. The future is bright and promising, and I am almost tempted lo write thaj, near y every prospect phases,and only man is vile. Ues peetlully, K.S. ADDISON, Treasurer Ninety-Six Alliance.

The will of the late James Edward Calhoun has not yet. heen submitted to the Probate Court, but the contents of the will are known. The Millwood property, twelve thousand acres in Abbeville county and four thousand acres in Klbert county, including the Trotter's Shoals water power on .Savannah river is left in equal parts toft. H. Calhoun, of Abbeville. John C. Calhoun, of New York. John C. Calhoun, of Florida. Itcnjamin 1\ Calnoun, of Florida. Miss M. At. Calhoun, of Atlanta. Andrew P. Calhoun, of Atlanta. Pat Calhoun, of Allantn. The mountain lands, 1C.\'KI0acres, is divided into nine parts, to t,he seven persons named above, together with? Mrs. MariaSintpkins lSutler, of Kdgcllelcl. Miss Isabella Leo, of Xew York. The executor, Mr. Pat Calhoun, Is authorized and directed to set oil' from the lands above named two small tracts, in such places as lie may deem proper, as follows: To his servant. Caroline Calhoun, 150 acres. To Kit ward Kelser. wiio hacl managed his farming interests tor several years, KiO acres. The will was signed ictober l'j, t.vili. The testator died October :?1, ISMi. The witnesses to the will were M. liutle.r, I of Kdi?e(ield. Marcus 11. Woodward and Jas. I \V. lireen, both of Atlanta, <ia. It is understood iliai It is the policy of Mr. I'ut Calhoun ami of 11is biother, Mr. Joiiii V. (Jul 1 ionn, to oiuiciivor to preserve ilio Abbeville and Klbert county property intact, and that lin y will seek the co-operation of the other legatees in an ellbrt to induce capitalisis to Invest the necessary amount of cash to erect immense cotton factories on Trotter's Shoals. A majority of the legatees are believed to tie vvel 1 ol* in this world's goods, and it is sitppostrd i lint they and some of their friends will organize a joint stock company to carry into etl'ect one of the most important Industrial enterprises with which this section of the South lias ever been favored with. The fall in seven miles is I3j feet; the supply of water Is constant and Inexhaustible? beinu supplied by never-failing mountain streams. Another advantage lies in the fact that because of the width of the river and swiftness of the current, the stream lias, we believe, never been known to rise higher than seven feet above low water mark. The lands are hlirii on each side of tile stream and the water is never out of the channel. At present, the only question is, as to the availability >1 tin* power, and tiie suitableness lor factory sites. If competent enarineers should find the water power available and the lands suitable for fr.el.ory purposes, then there is no way to properly estimate the value of this property to any company of capitalists wiio may choose to improve the property. llecej.tly the Savannah Valley liaiirnad lias run tor miles, throuuh the edge of the lands, and near to the shoals, and it is now certain the (b'oigia, Carolina and Northern Kail road w III ci'iiss tin* estate at the head of the shoals at an early d.i.v? possibly within a year from tilis time.

Atlanta Constitution, a lew days ago, about Hie recovering with jute at the cotton press, of cotton bales covered with cotton bagging, was unjust to Augusta. Said he, the recovering of cotton bagging witli jute lias been largely diseontinuedtan>A/ is not done at all by au.y Jarj^ IvD.'/tVs'n Tinporter. A f^f'bV.'jC."s w11 o buy In a small way uCV'.be^r own account have their cotton rccovlor Dili lliirl V f'i>nl? a !>: <> nrollt u lilcli they make on It, but no regularly employed buyers, representing large Liverpool houses, arc Instructed to do so by their houses. On the contrary, they are instructed not to do so. I had instructions to this ellect from the llrst, and have never hnd a bale recovered. Several buyers who were recovering them have received instructions from their houses to discontinue it. This has been done not only at Augusta, hut at thcjiorts.and there arc comparatively very few bales recovered now anywhere. Certainly there are very few recovered In Augusta, and in a short lime there will heabsofutely none except those bales which are covered in some very thin and lnsulllcient covering which has been so badly torn as to demand it. "Another point," said a factor, who came up at this moment, "there are very few cotton covered bales sold to exporters in Augusta. For the most part they are bought by the mills, in which case the farmer is allowed fifty cents additional, or ten cents a hundred, for his cotton more than he could get for It at any other city in the country," Augusta occupies a prominent position as a cotton centre, and as the friend of the farmers in their effort to Insure the use of cotton bagging, Augusta is entitled to the cordial endorsement and patronage of the farmers everywhere. THEY WANT ALL THE MILK IN THE C0COANUT. Talk About tfjglit and the Practice of I'uttiiig: On Kxtra Ties ?Read Kctwccn tlie Lines. A uyiutta Chroniclc. Mr. James Tobin has received, and replied to. a letter from Commissioner Henderson in reference to the custom of deducting the weight of the extra ties where more than six are placed on a bale of cotton. It seen s i!>at many larmers who use cotton bagging are putting on several extra ties to the bale. Clearly the purpose of this is to make the bale covered with lighter bagging weigh as mucn as me oaie in juie. This would beentirely fair where the farmer Is n./i allowed any difference in the price of It is cotton, whether covered in cotton or Jute. Hut when the mill men In Augusta allow farmers fifty cents a bale more tor their cotton covered in cotton bagging than for the same cotton covered In Jute, and thus overcome in the favor of the farmer tho difference in the weight of the bagging, it would he manifestly unfair to the manufacturer for the farmer to even up the difference himself with extra ties, and then expect the Augusta mills to pay him fifty cents besides for u difference iu weight which no longer exists. Following Is the correspondence: the com mission kk'.s inquiry. Atlanta, Ga., Nov. 2, iss'j. Mr. James Tobin, President of the Augusta Cotton Exchange, Augusta, Ga.: Dear Sir?I learn that It is the custom at some points in Georgia to deduct two pounds for each tie in excess of those ordinarily used upon cotton, which I believe Ik about six ties to the bale. I learn at the same time, though not authoritatively, that the Augusta buyers claim no deduction as above stated. Hut to be sure my information is correct, I would he pleased to hear from you, as the head of the Augusta Cotton Exchange, the unmistakable facts of the ease. The question being considered a matter of importance by fanners, and the season rapidly advancing tor the delivery of cotton, I hope you will answer by return mall. Yours truly, J. T. Hkndkrson, Commissioner of Agriculture. Silt. TOWN'S KKl'I.Y. To this letter Mr. Tobin made tho following reply: Augusta, Ga., Nov. <i, 18S9. Hon. J. T. Henderson. Commissioner of Agriculture, Atlanta, Ga. ; Dcnr Kir?Your favor addressed to me as President of the Cotton Exchange received. Wiiiie I am not now President of the Cotton Exchange, I can answer your question. The number of bales coining to Augusta with extra ties Is very small, and there has been no action taken in the matter, nor any regular custom adopted, but in all eases where cotton covered in cotton bagging and liavingan extra number of ties, are sold to our factories, the weight of the extra ties must be deduced, as tlie lactones pay an additional price for such cotton, and the additional pricc is paid in consideration of the increased net weight, which the extra ties would in part or wholly ottVct. This, of course, would be recognized by you or the owners of the cotton as clearly equitable. Augusta stands alone as the only city in the South that pays an extra price for cotton covered in cotton bagging,our mills having agreed last summer to pay the extra amount, recognizing the fact that the lighter the covering the greater the net weight of the raw material, and our factors sell most of such cotton to the factories. Apologizing for writing at such length and OOIUIIIX myNuii III luiiuuiunn U1 iiuj nine ? give you such information as may bo in ray possession, I am, very truly yours, Jamks Toitrx. I'. S.?I think the putting on of extra ties unwise. It simply complicates a question that is already a hard one to handle. J. T. LOWNDESVILLE'S HEADLIGHTS.
