Smith bill to regu late gambling In cotton fufares: Persons familiar with tb* subject believe that a reasonable estimate of the direct benefit of tb? legislation to tbs south will approximate fife dollars a bale in dollars and cents. As Georgia raises shout two and a half million bales of cot toa4 each year, the blil when lt finally becomes a l?w should bc put into the pockets of the farmers ot Georgia $12,fifl0,ooo annually through preventing manipulations on the New York Cotton Exchange. Will Pass House. Before lt becomes a law, the bill must pass the hons* of representa tives. It ls reassuring, however, in this connection to understand that sev eral times within reeent yoars the house has passed btllft to compel thr New York exchange to ."remodel hw system of conducting business. ,]yh assumed therefore that the house will not hesitate nor quibble concerning the Smith-Smith bUI. / Although the measure was (pasead yesterday, it was reconsidered today abd repassed by the senate/ Subse quent to its passage yesterday opposi tion developed to an amendment le galising cotton pools and rather than jeopardize the whole measure toda) the senators In charge agreed to tb? elimination of this feature. The bill as passed the senate forbids the use of-the mall* to exchanges deal ing in cotton unies* they reform theil contracts so ss to meet certain provid ed requirements. It also provldei that no pries lists of any cotton ex tract required by the bill shall be Beni through the mail or over telegraph wires. Reunion of V (ff i . ? - - ......

In thi? way the exchange forced down the selling prices of mid* .(linn rotiCn and delivering dogtail cotton. I The bill also requires'that the con tract used by a cotton exchange must provide that the seller or. the exchange if he dora not deliver cotton within the government ctandardUatlon, but ' pay the commercial or market differ ence between the value of the mid dling cotton and the cotton delivered to the purchaser. j lt also requires the contract to pro vide that if no spot market exists lu I the place whare tho exchange is con ducted then settlement must be made by the. average market prlceB in five places to be named by the secretary of agriculture which are genuine spot markets for oottoh.

R??iment Cherubusco-Judge Martin of ee of Pickens County volunteers to the Itth Regiment of Regulars under Coi. Millage. Seaham. After Martin was transferred, he. of course, was hot as familiar with the movements of the former command aa McKee, who remained with the regi ment until it reached Pueblo, near Mexico City, where, on account of sickness he was discharged. After the war was over. Mr. McKee resided for several years near Due West in Abbe ville county and in 1857 moved to Old Pickens Court House. In 1860, he married Miss Emily E. Perry ,t? daugh ter of J. B. Perry of Pickens county. His wire is-twenty years bis junior. Their union has been blessed with Ova children,' four sons and a daughter. Two of the sons and the daughter re side, near them. The eldest is John L., the next, Mrs. A. A. Hooper, and the thu t W. P. McKee. The third son, .Tames, is in railroad work and resides at Vail River, Kansas. The youngest aoa? who ls named Poster Marshall, for his captain, la a farmer and resides In Oklahoma. Mr. McKee waa also In th? Confed erate service, having served one year In Capt. tx Vf. Carey's company on the coast of South Carolina. Arter partaking of a splendid dinner, which Mrs. McKee and-her daughter prepared* we . remained for several hours reading several articles from newspapers which they bai preserved In regard to the Jackson Vate, which, by Ute way, it the conditions are right fully carried out, should be turned over to Mr. MeKse, as he ls now the last survivor living in the state. Before cloding thia a rt ole we wish to state that ?hen it la taken into con sideration the vast territory acquired hy he United States as a direct result or the Mexican war, and the vast wealth of that territory it hi a shame that these etd veterans are not airen a larger pension.
