Tlc- Hon. B. fl. Hill, of Georgia, nude the following terse and pointed remarks in a speech recently delivered by bim iv. that State. He said: VJ tell yon. to-day, Ica.e not what -euKia.- m*y com?, what large crops y:ni rony raise, still, under existing conditi ns, you will ever grow poorer, who produce cotton, and they will ever grow richt-r who handle it after, it is produced. Without a great change, the Southern States are des tiny i"to become so^nany plantations, pracrfcally owued by the Northern people, and the Southern pe-pie so many hireling slaves to work them. in rbis condition you will reap >cari-?ilv the wages, and not half the reVp*ct you accorded your tonuer H.-tVtifl And yet <he very reverse of this f:\ie is within yo .r power. Un d-T the pr hhnt policy the next gen eration of .Southern people will be come the poorest, the most powerless aud the must contemptible.of earth's inhabitants, while under a wise polir cy. the next gent-ration of Southern j-e-pl- tn?fy hf omi- rhe richest, the -- . : ... . r - wost respected ..: pwpio. v Liiiu destiny will we choose V But, you ask, how can this better deetiny be secured? I will tell you. First-Make cotton your surplus crop. ID thtse five words lie the Samson Jocks of your future power. M*ke your own fertilizers by resting, cropping, grassing and manuring your lands. ThuB you become independ ent of the guano merchants. Raise j mr own provision?. - Thus you '?i'ic?'tue independent of the provision tuerVhaiite. Your cheapest and safest lin? of transportation runs from your own lit-ids and hog pens, to your own b-<rus and meat houses? With no debts for your supplies, yon will need no accommodation cr?dita at' two per cent, per month. Thus you become independent of brokers, cotton factors a nd lien merchants. You can then >>11 y<--ur cotton at your own time, to your own chosan buyers, and will get your own money. None of these things can a cotton planter do who plants on 'ledit, and borrows money to buy his provisions. But you say, ? the Western States rai^e provi-ions eo much cheaper, we can make more money by raising cot ton and buying from them. This is the teaching of figures, and a greater lie was never taught. Now I affirm it is cheaper for you to nuee your own provisions than to h ive them br. ught from, the West and given to you at the nearest depot fr^c of cost an?! charges. How is this? r^t.he 'firsfc plane, ji'fte raise five mil lions ol' bulee vt cott.-n we will get no more money for them than we would get lor one half-of that number. Then out of the same amount realized, you pay tor raising the five millions just double cost of production. Hall' the la- or and supplies employed in rais iug five million bales of cotton could be employed in raising supplies with out reducing the value of the cotton crop one dollar. But half this labor wouiy raise more than you needed for supplies. You could employ much of it also in enriching your lands aud improving your property in many ways. Then you would come to the end of tb* year with your cribR full of cern, your smoke houses full of ment, your family full of smiles, your selves f?ll of independence, and your p ckets lull of money for investment. A d how would you invest it? In cotton factories on the waterfalls GA 1MS f-ent- all through your eouu ?try to run spindles. This would nuke you independent of Old and New England both. Then, also, you would mine your own implements of husbandry, which would make you independent of Pennsjlvania foun dries ?md Massachusetts workshops. If? a word, every improvement would be built up i? our own country, and .iii the profits of those improvements would go into y??ur own pockets. ',. o ..?i a-i you are now going, making :? .?ton your chief crop, and slavery is '"hf; do im pf 'your childreu and your iv'dreita children forever. A peo tile who d?pend cn other people for food and clothing, are and must be slaves. A PLUCKY WOMAN-Lovefy wo rn m -i e.-ps with a revolver under her p it.w in Nevada. At dead of night a plucky little woman in Eureka aw ?k?s to find a burglar prowling about h t room ransacking the bureau. Sae did bot scream. She lay as still as a coi pse and waited until he en tered the parlor. Then she tonk a revolver from its nest underneath her pillow, and creeping to the doorway leveled it at the intruder and without i tremor in ber voice commanded him to give up his .plunder*. There waa fire m her eye and iron in her tones, and thc Ourglar quailed. A bracelet, a gold chain, a pair of ear-rings, all the jew** 1H which he had found in the top bureau dr?ywer, he laid on the parlor tnbie and meekly asked her if ?he had any further remarks to make. 3be told bim that he ought to be ashamed of himself, and expressed her keen regret that the scantiness of her toilet, would prevent her conducting bim to jail. He. bowed gravely and left the house. The little, woman then jressed herself, lighted a ?antern, went to the furnace where her husband was ?mployed, und told him all about it. - * - Complimenta: coBt nothings .yeti nany pay dearly for them. I Mother Snip?on's Prophecy. ' It will not come amiss, says the Augusta Chronicle dc ConUitt?ionalist. at this time to reproduce some curi ous prophecies. The following lines are said to have been publh-hed be* fore the Crimean war of 1853, some authorities dating them as far back as 1453: " In twice two hundred years the Bear The Crescent shall assail ; But if the Cock and Bull unite, The Boar shall not prevail. ' But look ! in twice ten years agaiu-r Lot Islam know and fear The Cross shall wax, the Crescent wane, Grow pale and disappear." " Twice two hundred years,'' from 1453, brings us to 1853. This was the beginning of the Crimean war." France (the ""cock") and England (the " bull") declared war in alliance with Turkey (Islam) against Russia (the "bear") in March, ;|B54. In 1856 piace was concluded by Con gress, at Paris. "The bear did not prevail." "Twice ten' years" from this p< riod brings ns to 187<f, during which year disturbances commenced in Herzegovina, Bosnia and Bulgaria, Montenegro and Servia, which finally involved the Porte in a war with the last two uamed provinces, and al though attempts at compromises and mediation were made hythe Congress which assembled at Constantinople in the Fall of 1876, Servia alone yielded to Turkish authority. Mon tenegro refused all overtures looking to submission, and Russia having completed preparations for the war, made haste to take such action as has already given assurance that u The Cross shall wax, the Crescent wane, Grow pale aod disappear," There seems to be little doubt that Mother Shipton 'a famous prophecy was published in 1488 and revived in 1641. It runs thus: " Carriages without horses shall go, And accidents fill the world with woe, Around the world thoughts shall fly In the twinkling of an eye. Water shall yet more wonders do, Now strange, yet shall be true, The world upside down shall be, And gold be found at root of tree. Through hills men shall ride, And no horse or ass shall be at his side. Under water men shall walk, Shall ride, shall sleep, shall talk. In the air men shall be seen lu white, lu black, in green. I ron in the water shall float As easy as a wooden boat. Gold shall be found and grown In a land tint's not yet known. Fire and water shall wonders do, England at last shall admit a Jew, The world to an end shall come In eighteen hundred and eighty-one." - Here we have the distant announce . ment of the discovery of steam, tele graphy, the Keeley motor, the Co pernican system, the Mont Cenis and other tunnels, California gold mines, diving apparatus, balloons, iron ship building, ihe marvels of modern chem istry and natural science, and ?he po litical enfranchisement of the Jewish people in England, culminating in the predominant power_of Disraeli. Mother Shipton has surely brought matters to a fine point. She may fail in locating the day of Judgment in 1881, but who will feel easy until that fateful y ?ar shall have come and gone without a grand finale? -- ??^^t--?- ? Difference Between a Cold Boy and a Warm Boy? Sunday afternoon a policeman walk ing along Columbia street east caught sight of a boy about twelve years old trying to pry up a kitchen window. As the lad betrayed no alarm when accosted, the officer mildly demanded if he lived there, and why he was prying np the sash. "I live here, but I'm locked out,'' replied the boy. "This is about the hundredth time thia game has been played on me, and "thia is the last hair that breaks the camel's back!" "Where's your mother!" " Gone over to my aunt's, I spose, I've j ust got. home from Sunday School.' "And why should she lock the door!" "That's the bloody mystery!" an grily exclaimed the lad. " There's a bigfrosted cake in the house, of course, but would I touch it?" Why, I just hate the sight of raisin cake with frosting on it !" "You simply desire to get in to warm your feet," suggested the officor. "That's all, and I'm going in if it takes the roof off!" .The officer walked on, and in a few minutes passed up the alley behind the house to help catch a loose horse. Seated on the fence was the boy who was working at the window. He was now working at frosted cake. "Ah-ha! didu't you tell me you didn't like cake I" cried the officer. "That was when I was cold," re plied the boy as he hunted for the raisins. " There's a heap of difference between a cold boy and a warm boy !.' " And you don't feel as desperate as yon did?" "Not quite, though I can't tell what minute I may want some pickled peaches, and it makes me mad to think that ma hid this cake in a bas ket in the parlor stove!"-Detroit Free Press. .--. A " PARALLEL CASE."-Yesterday a ragged, shivering, middle-aged mhn called at a house on Sibley street and asked for food, but the lady of the house called out : "Why don't you work for your food?" " I would if I knew where I could find work," he promptly replied. There's a place down town where you can saw wood and earn your din ner," she continued. That seemed to stick him for half a minute, but he finally said, with great solemnity : . Madam, let me state a parallel case. There is a place in Heaven for you, but you don't want 'to die till yoi?are driven right to it.".; She ?jonder?d over his philosophy for a few seconds and then.; caUed;to' the.cook to pass out haifa loaf of bread ind some, meat,-- Fret iV?j, Pamlly-Madness,1.
