It would be interesting to know how many of our farmer delegation ever worked on a farm, whose farm and what wages they received.

The planters are busily engaged gathering the "fleecy staple," and if it was to be regulated by the yield, where this writer has seen, rhnn wo micrhl nnnnt. unnn tt ronnmPfflficA price, for the crop is going to be a very short one In this section. The crops of corn where well worked, are good. Some of our planters will make a great deal more corn than it will Lake to do them. Mr. Teke Cllnkscales a young farmer sets an example which should Oe followed by all who till the soil, young and aid: Having a surplus of corn he hasDeea selling It all the year and if nothing happens lo destroy bis crop this year he will make enough to do him two years. I would advise the young lales to set their caps for him. EXCITEMENT OVER THE ELECTION OF A COTTON WEIOIIER. Last Tuesday was also held here an election Tor cotton weigher. There were only five caniidntes for the position. As do one of them received a majority of the vote cast, the two highest had to run the race over to-day.
