Dear Sir?As one comes toward Frapkfort from the north side, one can readily tell from the number of factory chimneys, ' spur tracks, warehouses, and so forth, ' j passed by that the town is no moan one. 1 And if there were any doubt left on the < question it would disappear as soon as one 1 saw the pretentious station with its good cafe (as Baedecker says) and its elaborate ' iruit stands. Frankfort is a rich town, as 1 can be seen, as well by the condition 6f the I streets as by the number and beauty of its public monuments, fountains and parka 1 Here Gorthe is honored by a monument in ! bronze- near tho placo of his birth. The ' house itself, where they show you among I other things tho table on which "Hermann 1 and Dorothea" was written, was dosed I when I was there. Gorthe is properly hon- 1 ored everywhere in Germany I believe, but 1 I if there is any on whom the Germans de- ! light to honor it is Schiller. In proof of 1 which, the fancy cakes that the children .11 ice Dest is not zu-zu out ociiinor iuck. Among the public buildings the opera ! houso is the most imposing, perhaps be- 1 cause it stands by itself in the middle of a c large esplanade, and shows the importance 1 the town men attack to music. From Frankfort down the Main there is 1 not much to see. The broad valley of the c Main reaching on one side for four or live c miles to the mountains, and on the other ? side still farther back to some smaller hills, J tilled with fruit trees and gardens with a few fields is pretty but monotonous. The j1 little towns are full of geese, and are not too clean, a fault common to all the little j* towns. To walk through some of them 6 you would wonder why the-people don't die of fevers. This applies to the settlements of farmers only, what the Romans r call Dorfer, little villages with from twenty to four hundred inhabitants. You would think that when one got out . into these districts he would not find any more Americans, but often even in the very smallest places there is either some one who lias been to America, or some one who has. a relative there. And certainly some one to talk English. It was ir.. just such a little town on the way to Main:sthat I stopped to get out of the weather. I have strucii a most abominable streak of weather, by the way. Even the big good natured looking Fawn Wirtin fussed about the weather every time she could catch breath betv-een errands after beer. The walls of the wine room were decorated with the usual number of train bulletins and gaudy advertisement pictures. But there was even more of these little rhymed sayings, some of tliem proverbs, others evidently made to order. The most of them were evidently intended to encourage the public to d eeds of pot-valour. For example: "I)rink on; we won't tell your wife." "A! good drihk makes an old man young." "Out, with the .words that are true, down with the drink that is clear." Some of them are in such simple Ger man, and as much like English that any one can make them out without knowing any German. "Hast du Geld, willekonamer Gast, Hast du keins komm wenn du hast." "Willet recht lang leben, du? Esse gut und trink dozw." These give an idea of the proverbs in rhyme which are so common here. But to continue, when the Fraw told me she had pale beer and white wine. I asked her to bring me a small glass of wine. I can not help wondering wnat would haye happened if I had asked for an ordinary sized glass. { As it was she brought me something that looked liko a ouart cup. half full of wine, i The Germane have no sense of quantity t when It comes to drinking. Or perhaps ? tlieir sense of quantity is abnormally developed. But in spite of thexwine, I reached Mainz in the rain, and received a bad t impression of Gutenberg's town. Mainss has a cathedral which, parts of It 4 at least, is nearly a thousand years old- It is so old that there is a erust of houses ( grown up all ground it, and it is impossible to get to the phurch, except through , little alley wjiys cut through to it. inside it looks very much like the "rest of these | old cluwhes, and it is only from the out- . 6ide that the appearance is somewhat re- I Qiarimlile, pu account of having a big tower at either end instead of having two at the front, in the usual gothic style. The stained glass windows are quite pretty. The part of Mainz around the old church is old and interesting. The streets are quite crooked, the bouses quite warped toojiing I mid irregular. Farther dowp thp $ver however is a quarter which smocks of rentbfirr^ks and tornpr lots?a quarter w^(c|i you are sorry tp have seep. Jsparer the river }s {v S^hl(?sg where nre kept numerous . rpljcs pertaining to the great Mainzer, Gu tenberff, together with plies and stones of * an old Roman bridge which used to cross ( the Bhine at tills place. Whether it is the i great bridge which Croser delighted to de- | scribe, I don't, know, but the timbers are good yet. I leave this place to go down the Rhine to Bingen. What is the little poem about "Bingen on the Bhine ?" It is one* of those things I failed to le^rn ir\ school. Maybs you know. ? YOU TAKE PIO RISK.

The Abbeville Oil Mill Fully Alive to the Interests ot its Customers. i The cotton ginning- for this season opened a little late this year, but last week the ginning' at the Abbeville Oil Mill commenced in earnest and showed daily inireaseof busiuess. On Monday nine bales were ginned, ana the number increased laily until Saturday, when sixty-live bales were ginned and packed. It is believed ;hat the business will increase during the present week to 120 a day. Tho Oil Mill is well able to do a large juslness. With sixteen gins and all the leeded power and plenty of efficient help, t is fully equipped for almost any demand jpon Its resources. Farmers may therefore bring their product here with the expectation of receiving prompt attention ind quick service. Unnecessary delay leed not be feared, and farmers may depend upon it that they will not be delayed n harvesting their crop. As all of our people know, the Oil Mill ias bought Mr. Long's ginnery outfit, and t now has two eight-saw ginneries. These ;wo plants in thehands of polite and effl:ient men wiU^^able to serVe the public nost acceptab!^^ Besides prompt service and polite attenion, the Oil Mill gins and packs for twenty ients the hundred pounds. Instead of inreasing their charges, as corporations ometimes do when they have a monopoly, he Mill has reduced its charges from wenty-tlve cents to twenty cents, anu iu iddition to the reduction in charges, it mys the cotton seed at the ginnery, thus aving the farmer expense of loading on lis wagon and hauling off to market.
