I>etraetion or Timber.
Th*tre i*i scarcely a land-owner in this
county who has any woodland at all but
suffers almost os much loss, annually,
from the destruction of timber as his
taxes amount to. If all the timber that
Is wasted, not counting what is used, was
valued at its real worth, it would
amount every year to as much or more
than is paid to both State or county.
And this destruction is not done by him.
It is done by others, and wholly irre
sponsible parties at that. Many tenants
are under the impression that when they
rent land they rent the right
to cut timber ad libitum. This ignorance
in many cases, has become* so settled
that they complain as a great hardship
of the refusal to allow them to cut tim
ber when tbeysplease. A tenant, unless
by permission of his landlord, has no
right to cut a green stick. But the law
don’t stop them. They will walk into
your woods and throw a white oak, with
timber enough on it to make fifty plow
stocks, and use only enough to make'one,
leaving the balance to rotjon the ground
The waste of good timber for fire-wood,
in general among hands and tenants on
all large places, amounts to one or two
per cent, of the value of the place. By
the time the ’possum hunters and
coon hunters get through cutting trees
and the other odds aud ends of waste,
there is not much left fon'the owner. It
amounts almost to a dedication of woods
to the public to own them in this county.
We suggest that our land-owners, in
drawing their contracts for the coming
pear, insert a special clause that the ten
ant shall cut no green timber without
special permission. Then it would be ad
visable to put up notices warning the
public against hunting without permis
sion. In uo other country on earth that
pretends to civilization is such a thing
tolerated as hunting on the lands of an
othor without permission. In many ca
ses, of course, the permission is implied,
as in cases of adjoining landlords and
the like, but the principal remains, and
without some sort of permission it as a
misdemeanor.
The Hinesville Gazette says : We had
the pleasure of meeting in our village
Mr. Janies R. llall, of Bulloch who has
just returned from Texas. Mr. Hall left
Bulloch with lus family two years ago, to
make his home in the West, and located
himself iu Middle Texas, liis experience
which was on a par with that of many
others, was a sorrowful one, Misfortunes
came thick and fast his wife and two of
his children sickened and died. With the
remnant of his little family he made his
way back to his former home in Bolloch
county, where he arrived a few weeks ago.
lie does not represent Texas to be the
Eldorado which many have pictured it.
Lands are high, timber scarce, chills
and fever and typhoid fever scourge the
country. The physicians are the only
ones who make money. Quite as many
are coming back to the old State as are
coming m. Mr. llall says he is content
to spend the balance of his days in old
Georgia.
Wholesale Confiscation. The
Scwith Carolina House of Delegates Ims
rshed through almost without debate,
the “ supply bill,” under which the State
tax will be ten and a half mills, and the
county tax three mills. The special
county taxes will average two mills more.
To these taxes must be. added the county
tax of at least one and a half mills provi
ded for in a separate bill. This makes a
total tax of seventeen mills, or $2,380,-
000, exclusive of capitation tax, township
school taxes, and corporation taxes. The
taxpayers regard this as an attempt at
wholesale confiscation, and the Charles
ton News and Courier calls upon them
to respond to the State Tax Union, and
assemble in convention in Columbia next
week.
“Sue can’t sit down,” 6aid a female
custom-house inspector at New York the
other day, as she observed a lady who
had just come off n Hamburg steamer
standing ©a the wharf. The new arrival
was pretty but she looked very weary.
They took her, protesting against the out
rage, into a dressing room, and penetra
ting the mystery of her make-up, they
discovered that from her waist down she
was a solid mass of smuggled hair.
Luscious golden tresses twined them
selves around her dainty limbs and
gauged to her waist, mingling with ravcu
locks and auburn ringlets. The officer
stripped her, and she then was able to sit
down. She was importing the plunder
for a fashionable Broad way human hair
dealer.
It is stated iu a Washington telegram
that Mr. Randall has drawn a bill redu
cing the army to 15,000. It also makes
many changes in the civil service of the
government, aud the whole reduction of

000,000 yearly.

The Albany Argus wants a very clean
sweep made of the crooked whisky ring
thieves, and suggests the they be pursued
by an investigating committee of the
House,- “ even to the bed chamber of the
President himself.” That is good. *
No sensible i>erson can examine, the
testimony in the whisky fraud cases in
St. Louis without being forced to the
conclusion either felt at Ulysses 8. Grant
was the head partner of the ring, or else
that the said Grant was and is a very
extraordinary kind of fool.
Two children of John B. Hicks, of Lib

A few days since, in Kentucky, a coy

Blue grass is known to furnish much nu
triment.
Someone has informed a correspon
dent that red foxes run out the grays
wherever they go, and he writes to us for
information on the subject. This is true to
a certain extent. The grays seem to live
in terror of the reds, and unless hard
pushed bv dogs never encroach upon the
rauge of the latter. One pair of reus (the
species being in some sort migratory) will
drive out an entire colony of grays. The
reds are slowly going iu a westerly direc
tion. The peculiarities here mentioned
are notorious among old fox-hunters.
