Baonet,Elk,. a, riarrow, winding valley some 3900 feet above set level lies in the very throat of the Great Gate, between the Grandfath er of the Blue Ridge, and Beech ML, one of the most massive, if not the highest of the uplifts of the Great Smokey. , It is here, in Watauga county, that these two great ranges most closely approach each other, as from the pinnacle of the Beech to the ragged ciest crags of the Grandfa ther -as the crow flies is hardly over 5 or at most.6 iniles and " Wa tauga county is the "Ridgepole" of the Highlands of "Ottaray ;" even Boone, ( miles from Banner Elk postoffice), that lies in its lowlands, being over 3200 feet above tide-water ; and the valley of Banner Elk is 1100 feet or more, higher than Asheville, N. O. As every ,300 feet of elevation gives approximately a reduction of one degree in tempera ture, these Watauga lowlands have a normal temperature of about 5 to 6 degrees cooler than Asheville ; and the proximity of mountains which are both higher and more densely forested than those in the neighbor hood of the latter place, really makes the difference in summer even greater than this comparison of elevation alone would lead us to as sume. As a rule, throughout the sum mer, even in July and August, fires after nightfall are a comfort, if not a necessity, at Banner Elk ; and at the Grandfather Hotel, some 5 miles distant, (elevation above sea '4000 feet), the difference in temperature is even greater than the sligntly in creased elevation would imply, ow ing to the fact that the Grandfather Hotel, lying, as it does, just under the shadow of the . great mountain whose name it bears, and shut in on the other side by the lower but near and steep slopes of "Cloven-cliff" (bluff of 'the peak) has its sunrise a gooi deal later and its sunset a good deal earlier than Banner Elk or the neighboring Linville City, which last named is about 6 miles from Grandfather Hoel and not much further from Banner Elk. Blowing Hock, too,! though of about same elevation as the. Grandfather Hotel, is doubtless warmer lying, as it doeay mora open to-the aun; . and the same applies to Linville City (3800 feet), in tbe neighborhood of -which there are wide levels. The soil, too, of these southerly or southeast slopes of the Blue Ridge is more sandy, therefore more readily absor bent of heat and less retentive of moisture than the heavier and much richer clay lands about Banner Elk. Indeed most of the soils of tbe Blue Ridge proper are decidedly thin and sandy, characterized by the preva lence of such forest growth as the white pine, chestnut and chinquepin thickets ; whilst the colder but rich er soils about the headwaters of Elk support magnificent forests of hem lock, (commonly called spruce pineV sugar maple, lynn, (Mt.

" But we must not trespass too long on the patience of our public with poetry, however poetic our subject may be, as we are only common every day "pathfinders" crowned with balsam not poet laureates crowned with "bays." Apart from its climate Banner Elk and its neighborhood offers many attractions to the summer so journer, not tbe least of which is trout-fishing in the Elk and its trib utary tho shy Shonny-haw, doubt less taking its name from the Shaw nee Haws, which grow plentifully in the thickets bordering its banks. The trout in these mountain streams seldom exceed 15 inches, and of tener 12 or under, but they are gamy and make one of the daintiest of dishes. The varied landscape of mountain and yalley, of eliff and cascade, ridge and ravine, is however, the chief attraction, hardly second to its climate, of these green and gra cious highlands, where, to adopt an old simile to a new site "Spring lingers still in summer's lap." The postoffice at Banner Elk crowns a low hill jast below where shy Shonnyhaw leaps laughing to the bosom of the winding Elk, whose waters only a few hundred yards further down just below Banner's saw mill tossing and tum bling over its rocky bed form the picturesque Enohla Cascades; Enoh la being the Cherokee name for an extinct black fox ; though some authorities are disposed to consider this missing link not a fox but a variety of mink. Hardly more than a century ago, the elk, panther and wolf were common in these regions, but the first has quite disappeared, the second, too, probably not now to be found, unless in the Great Smokey further South bordering on Tennes see, and wolves are rare visitors. Bear, however, still have their haunts in the Grandfather, and a few of them linger in the wilderness of woods among the remoter ridges of the Beech. The buffalo emigra ted westward at a period even, earlier than that when tho elk turned their faces northward. ,Jnt'rof doves, partridges, (quail) wild turkey and pheasants, (last really the ruffed grouse) there are plenty still left for the-sportsman who visits' these mountains in the autumn : and among the rugged precipices of the bold mountains that overlook the lower gorge of the Linville River, (Ea-see-oh-la) there is a good chance to scrape acquaintance with a bear, or to make a "bear escape if you m m prefer peace to powder, and a rest to a ramble. Leaving Banner Elk a good day s ride will carry you to the foot of Table Kock, Burke county, one of the boldest summits of the Blue Ridge : and its neigh boring Chimney Mountain, (on which rise the towers of Linville) is with perhaps the exception cf Whitesides, (the great Too-ge-lah) in Macon county, the most pictur- esque summit oi tne uiue .mage.

The Picayune's Houston, Texas, special says : Today is set for the big cotton pickers' strike which is to embrace every State in the cotton belt. Col. Humphreys, a while man, who has engineered the scheme and who expects to reap the benefit, said last night to our corresrjondent : "I have the names of one million one hundred thousand pickers in all portions of tbe South wbo stopped, picking last night, until thev get a dollar a hundred and board. These men are all under oath to pick no man's cotton, save their own, until the first of November." In reply to a question as to where the movement was strongest, he re plied in Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama nearly every colored picker had joined the league, and that in the Atlantic States the numbers are large. As to how many of the pick ers will exist through the fall and winter, he says, they have been ad vised to seek other employment at any price, all of which is utterly impracticable, as cotton field negroes could not make much headway in cities, and if they should strike, it would mean just so many pitiful lives turned loose upon communities; the colored pickers, as a rule, being the most impoverished and thriftless class of men on the plantations. Reports from different sections of tho South today show no trouble, though there is dissatisfaction among darkies in the black belt, but of what nature he did not know. Charleston, S. C, Sept. 12.- Specials to tho News and Courier from .all parts of South Carolina state that there are no signs of a strike in the cotton fields. Nobody seems to know anything about the alleged strike of cotton pickers. Farmers are paying from 30 to 40 cents per 100 pounds. Atlanta, Ga., Sept. 12. The reported strike of cotton pickers in Georgia proves to be a myth. Ne groes are all at work except in por- uons oi ine oiate wuere it 2 !L I?: j?-1 t" J"n" ing, ..m . nal from Texas, all portions of Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, Lou isiana and lennesaee, are to the same effect. Wilmington, N. C, Sept. 12. Thus far there are no indications of a strike of cotton pickers in North Carolina, aud if inaugurated, it is believed it would prove a ;disml affair. White Allianoemen cannot afford to countenance such a move ment and jt ill use their best efforts to prevent it. JACKSONVILLE, tfla., Sept.!?. ... Inquiries in all sections of the cot- ton belt in Florida fails to discover any locality where the negro cotton pickers have joined iti the strike an nounced to take plao -today. A large portion of cotton lands are cultivated on the lease and shares system. Montgomery, Ala., sent. la. There is no development of the cot ton pickers strike id Alabama.

Whatever may be the cause, it is an undisputed fact that the farming interests of the country are in a lan guishing condition. Prosperity does not seem to lighten the labors of the tillers of the soil, as a class, any where in this country. Among politicians, peripatetic and local, 'the causes are easily assigned and flippantly described, viz.: bad laws, wrong men in office, corrup tion, railroad greed, Vail street influence,- upon National finances, &c But with thoughtful meu actually engaged in the pursuit of agricult ure, this problem is not so easy of solution. In the South it is a well known fact that the lands are worn and washed, particularly in the cot ton and tobacco districts, and con sequently the difficulties and expense of raising full crops are very greatly increased. Improved methods are off setting these disadvantages but perhaps not to an adequate extent. But in the new States of the West where the lands are fresh and fertile and were obtained cheaply pre empted in a great measure from the government, in quarter sections by actual' settlers, at $1.25 per acre, even there the death rate, so to speak, by farm mortgaging, is even higher than at the South. The world is progressing; im provements are constantly being made in all departments of business. In manufacturing, which, in its va rious branches, is the great power in all countries, new methods and new machinery are constantly taking the place of the old. A manufacturer of cotton good 8, for instance, who would attempt to operate his factory with machinery and methods of twenty-five years ago, would be a laughing stock for his neighbors, and would of course soon be strand ed. The successful men in all lines of business are the live men who keep right abreast with all the new discoveries and improvements, whe ther by way of curtailing expenses or increasing profits and productive ness. Are farmers keeping pace with the progress in other depart- ments of business and industry ? Are they alive to the importance of -presemng the, productiveness of their lands by providing against de- struction by floods, bad culture, ex- hau8tive crops, &c. ? A wide field for usefulnesses here spread out be- fore tbe Alliance and other organi- zations, and individually having the interests of the agriculture of the country really at heart. Intelligent consideration is to be given and ex periments made as to the best sys tems of fertilizing, draining, culti vating, reaping and marketing ; the rotation of crops, the acreage to be I lUbBblUU UA UlUUa bUD AUlCaifD LU UD nl.nfl in onffnr rrin orapa onrl fu., n.A f; tobacco, respectively. Co-operation and concert of action, particularly in determining the acreage to be planted and the time and manner of selling the great staples, are matters of the highest importance, and well deserving the attention of our wisest and best men iu and out of the Al liance. If more consideration were given to such matters as these, and less to machine politics, such as tho making and . unmaking of Presi dents, Senators and platforms all over tbe country, tbe results would no doubt be more satisfactory, at least to the man, who walks between the plow handles and earns and eats his daily bread in the sweat of his face.

Mecklenburg Times. The Third Party orators from Kansas are seeking Southern sup porters by appealing to onr senti ment of patriotism and abhorrence of sectionalism. They say let us bury the hatchet ; the war is over ; let us shake hands across the bloody chasm. Noble sentiment this 1 Kansas has been the hot bed of sectionalism and her people the bit terest of South haters. When the war closed almost" the entire North and Northwest was Republican. The Southern people were poverty stricken and almost homeless. The Republicans sent bands of carpet-baggers down here to take charge of our local govern- I meet, plunder our people and dis- grace our State. Insolent soldiers I paraded our streets whose swords flashed in the face of our people, and terrified the widows and orphans of soldiers left on the battle field. Tbe Southern people were in need of friends at that time. We had a few, but they were not in Kansas. They did not ask us to join the par ty that was robbing and insulting our pride. They joined our party and helped us to fight against the tyranny, and to uplift the yoke, of carpet bag rule. Yes, we had friends in those days. They were the noble men at the North, who, like the Southern sol diers buried the hatchet at Appo mattox and went to their homes and voted the Democratic ticket. Our friends have been the Northern Democrats in Congress and out, who helped us to get out of the po litical mire into which the Republi cans had placed us. The Kansas people and farmers included voted with the Republi cans for the infamous legislation that has built up millionaires, monopolies and trusts at our ex- I pense. The same party that outraged the I i I it VI 1 j t 1" la .11 ouufcu'uuaiiy uua.eu iuo me uiuuu i from the Kansas farmers, through Jerry Simpson, Peffer, and that now croffd of ex-Repubiioans pretending great friendship and ad are vising the farmers to desert the Northern Democrats who befriended us in the dark days and join them. They say let ns join the third party , and bury sectionalism ! The war is over, &c. Yes, and the first Third party convention declared for more money for the Union soldier. Does that look like the war wa over ? Does that look like burying sectionalism ? Was sectionalism buried when Har ris, a Confederate soldier, was de feated for Senator iu Kansas by that war worn Republican Peffer. The Kansas third party advocate who wants to bury sectionalism by reach ing his fingers into the pockets of the old struggling Confederate sol diers for more pensions and boodle, I is a poor friend to the South. Is friend the man who helps you in distress, or the one who seeks to rob and kill yon ? Who are the friends of the South ern people, are they the Democrats at the North who helped us in the dark days of reconstruction, or are they such men as Simpson and Peff er who voted to hold the noses of our people to the grinding stone for 25 years ? If the Kansas people want to bury sectionalism, let them do like the noble men who befriended us after the war ; we say let them come over on our side and vote for Democracy. If they had done this when par Northern friends did we would nev er have suffered the political evils that we now complain of. The third party promises nothing but destruction to the Southern people. No Democrats of any stan ding South or West are in favor of a third party. The great tniro party men are McCune, Peffer and Simp son, all ex-Republicans. The Dem ocrats who walk into the third party coh-webb parlor will be the means of tightning the grip of the Repub licans on the government of this Union and sinking the farmer and laborer deeper in poverty and de spair. When the Kansas fellows have changed their politics a few more times perhaps they will land in the De mocratic party. We haye made these remarks to nnt onr neonle to thinking and to caution them againBt being led by the "sugar -coated tongues of those who have been our enemies. We can not but believe that Simpson and his crowd would delight, above all things to see the South once more jn the hands of the radicals.
