FOR FLORIDA. Steamer Fountain, Tuesday morning. October -4th, at 10 o'clock IMiPOHTAhT DEt'ISIOS. The following is the decision, In full, In a case which has attracted a great deal of attention, stand ing as it does a»ss a precedent for the many similar cases which are likely to come up. It will be seen that the decision rendered in another case of this kind by Lieut. Parsons, Provost Judge, some months ago is reversed in the following : DECISION OF THE HON. PHILIP M. RUSSELL. John M. Cooper vs. Cuckenheimer ft Selig—Pos sessory Warrant to recover possession of a horse, under the act oflß2l. In this case the rlaintlff, by his witnesses, estab lulled the fact that In December, 1864, the horse, which is the subject matter or the suit, was in his quiet and legally, and peaceably acquired posset slon: ''hat it disappeared from that possession ■•without.Ms consent,” and that it '‘has been recover ed and taken possession of by tUe defendantand that when General Sherman’s Army passed through the county of Effingham,ln December last, this horse was taken out of the lot in which it was kept by some of the soldiers of that army, without the con sent of plaintiff The defendant proved that they came Into the pos ceiilon of the horse from'Mr. John Scholl, to whom Hie horse was given by a Major in the Federal army inme three weeks after that army arrived at Savan nah ; also, that the horse was, when so given, In the ~amp of the Federal army, and in a very bad condi tion ; so much so that the Federal Major stated it had been condemned, and if not taken away should l, e snot. It fflso came out In the course of the ex amination that the plaintiff had endeavored toob tain the possession of the horse from John Scholl through the Provost Judge’s Court, but had failed to do so; also, that there was on the horse no brand or mark to show it had been condemned. The question which I am called on to decide is : ,mply which of the parties before me is entitled to the "possession of this horse, I have no right to decide as to the conflicting titles to the ownership of the horse. If there be such conflict, that question must come before another and a higher tribunal, nor can I decide any question in reference to the amount w hich the defendants may claim Horn plaintiff for services rendered him in taking care of the horse, saving its life and improving its condition. This, also, is a matter foreign to the subject now under .. Moderation. The Statute of 1821, under which this action is brought, requires me to turn over the property in dispute to the parry in whose peaceable end legally acquired possession it last was. The Supreme Court of Georgia, in the case of Marchman \Todd, It Ga. Reports p 25, has interpreted and w , mined this statute, and declared what proof is us e-sary, and what sufficient to make out a case un ior this statute. They declare that ‘:the plaintiff hns only to show that the property in question was heretofore in lits peaceable-possession, and is now found in the possession of the defendant. And he has made out a prints facie case ; and the burden is cast upon the defendant to show that the change of I possession has been by consent of the plaint iff or by 1 operation of law. See also, Mills vs. Glover, 22d Ga. r. p. 319. Now, in the case before me, tbe plain tui nac shown that, heretofore he was in the peace- I able possession of this horse, and that now it is [found in the possession of the defendants. It then ; becomes necessary for the Defendants to prove that the change of possession has been by the con-ent of the plaintiff or by operation of law. Hava they prov ed either according to the evidence referred to? They have certainly shown no consent on the part of the plaintiff: on the contrary, it has been proved to be without his consent. Nor do I think they have Bliown it lias been by operation of lew, as Intended by the statute. No procees or Judgment of law chang ed this possession. The defendant’s counsel contends that this was a case of legal capture and that; there fore tile possession by opera tion of law, even If the abstract propos tlon Involved in this assertion be correct, its nppUcatlon to the present case cannot benefit the iefendants. If the property is to be considered as captnred.it belonged to the United States, and could Duly come legally into the possession of the defend mts by a compliance with certain rules and regula tions established by military law. No evidence of such compliance or of the fact that the steps neces sary to constitute un “operation of law” have been aken has been adduced. But uhder the decision of he Supreme Court and in accordance with the enns of the statute of 1821, I am constrained to hold hat the facts established by defendants io not make out a case of an operation of law as iontemplatod by the statute. The facts having been proved that plaintiff was heretofore in the peaceable possession of this horse, nil that the possession has not been changed with he consent of plaintiff, or by operation of law, I leclde that the horse be turned over to the posses ion of the plaintiff, upon condition that he enter ato a bond with good security in double the amount f the value of the 1,0530. to cause the lioihe to be reduced and forthcoming to answer any Judgment, Bxecution or decree that may be Issued, or made Bpon such action or suit at law or In Equity as the •pposlte parties may commence or prosecute within -ihe next tour years touching the same. 5 Hartrklge and Chisholm, Attorney for plaintiff. |aolomon cohen, Esq., Attorney for defendants.

The withdrawal of nearly three hundred thousand able-bodied persons to a greater or less extent from their usual vocations, has created a void which most foe filled or the lands of the State will remain nntllled, her great resources undeveloped and her future pros perity sacrificed. The remedy, and the only remedy for this condition ot affairs consists in the immigration of a hardy and industrious white population, to supply the places of those who cannot be compelled to work and whoso depositions do not Incline them to greater labor than is actually necessary to support life. To such Immigrants, no State offers greater Induce ments than the State of Georgia. Extending from the Atlantic Ocean to the Bine Rlge, it embraces eve ry variety of soil and climate. The savannahs of the coast, the rolling conntry of Ihe interior, and the mountains of the northern part of the State afford opportunities for the cultivation of almost every pro duct of tropical or temperate latitudes. The grape Is grown with great Success In mtny parts of the State and its cultivation has only been limited by the want of persons skilled In the knowl edge of the vine nnd the mode of preparing Its yield. The State la also rich In gold and other minerals, and nothing but energy and the application of proper ma- . chinery Is wanting to the development of those bid den treasures The raising of sheep of the finest breeds has been carried.on with success, and the vast ranges qf nncnl tlvated land afford excellent pastures for cattle and all kinds of stock—rice, cotton, tobacco, corn, wheat, rye. oats, sugar cane, the grape and all species of fruits llnd thel* appropriate soil and climate within onr extended limits. The numerous rivers and smaller streams taking their rise in the mountains and running through the Slate into the Atlantic aud tbe Gnlf in their gradual descent furnish water power unfailing In any seaaon and capable of patting into operation any kind of machinery. The area of the State contains upwards of thirty millions ol seres, o which not more than one-third has been cultivated, and tbe virgin forest of the wtld land, afford an Inexhaustible snpply of lumber which foc_ied a heavy Item of tbe exports of Georgia prior to onr late difficulties. These lands, which mS be bongbt at comparatively low rates, will give to the new settler a homestead on which he may erect his rooftree nnd setlie for life an Inhabitant and in time a Utiii nos the repnbl c. In view ot the foregoing facte tbe undersigned pro pose to organize a Company to be called the "Georgia Land and Emigration company," the principle office to he located in Savannah with the intention of an plying for a charter at the next session of the Letrisln ture; 'he capital (rs said Company to be five hundred Iln.nsand dollars, in twenty thousand of twentv-flve ilollai s each; said Company to be organized bv tbe choice ofs President aud Directors when all the -haresnhall have been subscribed. The object of the Company to to Induce and afford •lid to the immigration Into the State of Georgia of honest, sober snd reliable persons with their families lo become pnrehasera of and settlers on lands not now in use, or to bo labore.s on farms or plantations on which thefreedmen reiuse to work, or to follow their trades, or become house servants. The advantages to be dert v«t as this present turn tnre by the Influx of such a class of populatiomare mamlest. To the large landholder it offers the pi xn pectof selling his land or farming it out on advents geons terms. To the Planter and Farmer it will snn ply that labor, In tbe absence of which, the owner ship of the soil la a burthen, and to ill pcreoni in those Claeses of life whose business requires or whose position permits the u»e of the labor of others, lt *l - the opportunity of obtaining snch labor cf a reasonable rate, and of a reliable character. So also to the State will great benefit accrne; many of the Immigrants may bring wealth with them, ail will bring skill or Industry, which la the source of wealth, and this Infusion of new life will, we trust, in progress ol rime, restore Georgia to her original state of pice * The Company we believe—will be, not only seif-su telnlng.Jjut a source of profit to the stockholders.— The fees paid by those emigrants who can afford It, lor directions aa to their settlement; the commissions paid by the owners of lands for the sale, or leasing of their lauds to the immigrants, and by persons to whom laborers are furnish ec, the profits to be derived Irom a .savings Institution to take care of the fnnde and profits ol the emigr ..lits, which lt Is proposed to connect with the Company, will, we expect, enable the Company to declare such dividends as will make it remunerative to those who subscribe simply as an Investment. But Independently of pecuniary con Bideration, as citizens of ihe State ot Georgia who bate an interest in iu future wellare, we ask your as sistance in this matter, in our opinion of vital impor ! tancc. B e msy not leave the land of eur birth, let I us make il once more a land of promise. Alt communications should be addressed. Poet paid, 1 to.I no.
