For tho recejiUon ot navertUomonU and whero sutacribore laiUutf to reculTO their papers will ploaae report. Houaxos, Doc. 4 --A most deplorable acoidenk happened this forenoon that caused tha death of a young man in about six hours alter it occurred.

Churlie and Cornelius Rugere, brothers and young men well known to a large circle of friends in the been out in their buffgy on a hunt and wore returning home with their guns in the buggy between, thoiu, the muzzlee pointing up, as is usual on. occasions. They had reached Eureka, five miles northwest from- the city and without any known cause one barrel of a was discharged and the entire contents emptied into the left breast and si-, cf Cornelius, the younger of the two boy-. Every shot in the cartridge went into him and all that his brother could do was to driTe as rapidly as possible for the city, which he did, the unfortunate young man bleeding fearfully all tho time. They reached here and immediately cllecl Dr.

Larondon, who followed close behind, those who lifted the young man to ma raim on GongrejBs avenue, but tbe wound wat one from which he could not recovoi and he died this afternoon about 1 o'clock. His heroic struggle riding in after he ias shot, as his life bloou ebbed away, warn something almost superhuman. Ho sat up in the buggy most of the way, yet when he was laid down on he never rallied and died with the tears of a loring mother affectionate fiister and devoted brother bathing his pallid brow. His father is in New Orleans and was wired this evening. Cornelius was raised in this city and has a large circle rL drawn cloflo to him by his cordial and geml ways.

Lecture by Mr. Bvown. following lecture was delivered by Mr. E. W.

Brown at First Independent church, Houston avenue. Subject: "God's Great Peacemaker--Trade and Exchange," After referring to tho Saviour's saying "Blessed are the peacemakers," and speaking to the beneficence of God and the wondrous children he had begotten in order bo carry out bis kind and just purposes, Mr. Brown went on to soy among other things: Trade is God's child and peacemaker. By iti very nature it brings men, races uud peoples closer together, and teaches them much of their identity of interests, their brotherhood, aud the real fatherhood of God. To do this, to bring men to comprehend and appreciate thelt kmehlp is work of peace, most blessed and most religious.

No man lives to himself, nor should he try, and there is something to be glad ot in the fact that we are more or less dependent upon each other for our very and liberties, aud this fact should beget in ua solicitude and kindness for each other. Besides this, we AS a people, nation and race either riso or fall best of us suffer loss because of the failure of others, and this very thing should snake missionaries of all good men. Exchange of labor products Ifl an eminently natural law, for eaah of us has a special and peculiar ability, and tbe economy of nature is belt lerved by our cultivating our gifte, and this can cot be be done if every other thing wall haft to ho unnp. Tjflt ovary man wait- on his own calling. People are kinder and leu factious in than in sparsely settled Thero nro no "we uns" and "you uni" iu largo cities.

A deopor question hero presents itself. We must have exchange--co-operation, but tho only basis that is right is that of equality, Those exchanging--trading--must be equal ns to the exchange if no further. There is only one way by which this ond can be reached, and tbo way is both Mosaic and Christian, By placing every man on tho same and equal terms as regards the use of tho earth, the oourco of all material things. War is scarcely possible even now, so groat are the ramifications and binding interests of trade, but armies and navies and pensions are with us yot; these under tho conditions I havo triad to sketch will be as impossible as war itself. The sinfulnoBB and wickedness of trying to prevent trade and exchange is surety clear enough.

No Christian can afford to prevent men getting together, becoming friends and brothers for Christ's sake. Lot us exemplify In cur business and occupation such a friendship and brotherhood as ehall make Christ's reign assible. The Turn Vereln.

If I am a traitor I nm the only one in Texas a long shot, and 1 am fooling good all ovor and looking forward to a better day. 'We will have it; your old friend may not live to see it, but it is sure to come. Our national uf- faira.wlll be in good hands, so wo will have no fears on that score.

So now the proper thing for us poor clodhoppers to do is to turn ovor a now leaf, so to speak not wait till tho new year, but begin now. Lot us moke it a point to do some good every day we livo speak a kind word, if it ia only to'our old buck mule-- so that our clum- bers may not be disturbed by a horrid nightmare.

can navo aoru to noil and koep. Now I differ with a majority of farmers and Governor Hogg, too, iu preparing cotton land. The prevailing idea is to list; that is, lap two furrows together, leaving a hard streak underneath, claiming that cotton will not grow un- til its roots come in contact with hard ground. I admit that fact. But.

on tho other hand, if there is a deep cantor furrow run WITH A DULT-TONOUB the cotton roots will fio to hard ground, and in tho event of drouth tho plant will stand it and iu tho evunt of a wot your tho loud. being plowed deep, will take up the moisture more readily. Now, in regard to planting cotton plant early, chop out as soon as possible, hire labor and borrow money if necessary to pay for chopping cotton; it will pay you in the end. After your cotton is chopped out, then use swoops. Go ovor your cotton every ten days if possible.

Don't quit plowing on account of dry weather. If tho ground begins to crack plow keep plowing until It rams. Now as to kind of cotton. I have tried many and find what is called storm proof to be the best. It Is rather lato, but it stands dry weather wull, has a good staple, largo boll and fall a out less than any cthor, 1 notice in TUB KBWB one Mr.

It is probable that an effort will be made at an early day to ture this remarkable curiosity.

FOTTBBORO, Graysoii THB NEWS: In answer to that wonderful "sei island" letter of Mr. Jeff Wellborn of New Boston, in the Farmers' Forum of November 17, as to the balance wheel, I do not think that if I were to swap baltinca wheels with Mr. Wellborn that I vuuld bo any better off, as whool in tho crnnkioflt ovor heard tell of. Mr. Wellborn dashes into tho Southern Hope cotton just as though ho know all about it, bub from tho tone of hia letter ho doesn't know anything about it, do not profess to know all about cotton, but I cnn say thia much about, the Southern Hope, that it has made a better yield per acre this year for me than common cotton, side by aide and on the sama land, nnd that I have rained it this year that insasutpt from IJij" to IJi'- inch frtapifl, J.

It will always bring a good price. As to tho Hold, I say again it will make more to tho icro than common ooVx-n, It grows large, ong limbs, and has from twelve to eighteen jolla to tho limb.

TUB NEWS: Now that the election ia ovor and exoitomont aomowhat subsided, farmers generally ahould devoto thoir energies to tho betterment of their surroundings, romombertag that no government tmn enrich them.

Wa wore informed in Juno that tho decrease in cotton acreage was 20 per cent greater than 1891. Notwithstanding this dooroose the crop would probably under favorable conditions have boon as largo as last year. Tho numerous freshots, overflows, backward spring, worms, arc cauies of tho short crop that it would bo well for farmers to not rrverlook. Swing that the price to a great extent can bo controlled by limiting production to actual demands, I bo- Hove it would bo to tho interest of cotton producers to further douroaeo the acreage for 1893, and if tho question is only agitated by TUB and its correspondents I am of the opinion that the next crop will soil at from 10 to 12X conta. At this crico thoro would be a profit to tho producer.

1 tsee that several correspondents of TOE NKWti are discussing the morita of tho different varieties and ataplos. Several farmers In this section last spring planted the Japan cotton, and. are well pleased with it. Several report having gathered bale to the aero. It is a long Htnple and sells for about 1 cent per pound more than tho Allen, or other long staples, and nets the farmer from $12 to $20 more par batethnn tho avornge abort lint raioed in this section.

Ulcers seem more anxious and ready to bid on this cotton than on that of any other. I havo several varieties of thn long staple, but tho Japan la tho favorite in this portion of Fannin county. Very little cotton of any other kind will be planted another year. It costs no more to produce and market a $56 bale of cotton than a $40 balo. Y.
