THE LOOTED CITY OF PEKIN. From tho recent dispatches regarding tho state of affairs at Poking it would sconi that tho allied forces have banded themselves together for the speedie pur poso of buding. To tho credit of thc American military forces, however, it is stated that tho soldiers have dono little in tho way of appropriating articles of value beyond "foraging" for blankets and other articles necessary to their comfort, which is done by permission of tlio uflicors in command, the army blankets having been discarded during the mareil to Peking in the extremely hot weather. This in a measure is justi fiable; but tho wholesale looting and robbery as reported is wholly unjustifia ble, and unpardonable, even tn the light of tho old maxim, "to the victor belongs tho spoils." There aro many instances related of this barbarous looting, and tho following is a fair example: "Tho proprietor of a Peking hotel has bought, it is stated, silver worth over a quarter of a million dollars, at a cost of less than fifty thousand." This silver was appropriated by tho looters and sold for whatever could be gotten for it. This one instance shows a lows to the owners of at least $260,000, and it means again by the thieves of a like amount; and to the purchaser of the stolen property it means the enor mous profit ol* at least $200,000. As (Jen. Sherman, put it, "war is hell," and it would seem that those who make war aro little better than demons. This practice of looting, however, is not conllned to tho soldiers, camp-fol lowers and riff ralf, as tho following paragraph shows: "Some of tho most persistent looters have been the missionaries. Kecently meeting one with live cart loads of furs and antique furniture, Major Waller asked the missionary by what right he had taken tho things, and to his aston ishment was told that they had been taken by permission of Major Waller. Ho informed the missionary thai he was mistaken, as ho himself was Major Wal ler, and that he should confiscate every bit of it." A beautiful example for .. missionary to set ! With "missionaries" prowling about Peking on "missions" of this sort, what is to be expected of soldiers, har dened and brutalized by the demoraliz ing influences of military lifo and Uncle Sam's "moral institution"-the army canteen'.' The time for reforming the army is ripe-the army itself is rotten. lt would scorn, too, that it is time for a number of missionaries to be sent over to convert those already there, who seem to have mistaken their mission to an alarm i ng degree. WHO IS RESPONSIBLE? The Atlanta papers-the Constitution and Journal-have for some lime been quarreling over which one is entitled to credit for the rise in the price ol' cotton, and at present each is claiming it. Col ton would have advanced in price had neither of these papers ever been heard Of. Like everything else, the juice of cotton is regulated by supply and de mand. The supply is short, tho demand great, and tho price is necessarily much higher than a year ago, when tho supply greatly exceeded the demand. Tho cot ton growers come nearer having tho situ ation under entire control now than at any time for years, ami it rests with them whether they will profit by their advant age. They should organize and agree upon an acreage that will not again glut the cotton market. lt Happened in a Dina Stoic. "Ono day last winier a lady came lo my drug store and asked for a brand of cough medicine thal I did not have in stock," says M r. I '. I!. ( Irnndill, the popu lar druggist of Ontario, N. Y. "Sho was disappointed and wanted to know what cough preparation 1 could recommend. I said toher that I could freely recoil) mend Chamberlain's Cough Itetncdy and thal she could take a bottle of the rem edy, and aller giving it a fair trial if she did not lind it W?rtll the money to bung back thc botth; and I would refund the price paid. In the course ?f a day or two the lady came back ill company with a friend in need (d' a cough medicine and advised her to buy a bottle of Chamber lain's Cough Itomcdy. I consider that a very good recommendation for tho rem edy." Il is for sale hy Dr J. W, ?ell. Important Notice.

Wanner, of lallapoosa, Ga., was seen on our streets he lirst of this week. Mr. Wanner .ice president of tho Georgia Vineyard Company, which is the largest vineyard II the Southern States. Ho informs us hat, they have 830 acres in this vineyard vhich grows 201),UDO vines. He says also hat their cellar capacity is 100,000 gal ons, and that it is full up. This com ?any does a large business." Mr. Wanner, if we remember correctly s tho Gorman gentleman who bought and near Walhalla some years ago ant" vent to a considerable expenso in set ing out a vineyard for tho growing of (rapes for wine-making.

We believe the cultivation of thc grape ,'ould add much to the wealth and the opnlation of this section of (lus State; nd we believe further that, st) far from licournging drunkenness, the making 1' wine, such as that produced by tho rapes raised here, would tend to so rioty.
