The Gridin News says; There is a patch of white wheat m the southern portion of the city that is as fine as any we ever saw. It is of a deep, rich color, about waist high, and as thick as can be. From present appearances, it promises to yeild at the iate of 40 bushels to the acre. •* Cotton Claims— From the Savannah Republi can we copy an extract from a letter written by John O Ferrill in reference to cotton claims. He says: “ Tour Washington letter of Sunday’s issue contains the following paragraph, which is apt to mislead maoy persons having claims against the Government: All cotton claims are barred now by the Statute ct Limitations, unless suit was commenced within two years from the ikh of Aligns!, 1860. Every effort to reopen the court claims to tbe people oi the Southern State has been detested, and thereby declaring the citizen of a Southern State an alien enemy. “ On the 28J of May last I wrote a letter to the Morning News ot this city which was copied largely throughout the South, giving my reasons far the opiniou that to persons not adhering to the Federal cause during the war, the cornts are still open for the adjudication of their claims, and will remain open until December 25 L, 1875;’and while the Court of Claims may sustain the Gov ernment’s plea of the Statute or Limitation, vet I am convinced that the Supreme Ccurt ot the United Slates, for the reasons given in the letter referred to will decide in favor ot the plaintifi*. I have now before the Court of Claims a test case involving this question, and do not doubt bat that it will eventually be declared for us. The importance of such a decision will be appreciated when I say that there are now in Savannah over one million dollars worth of cotton el inis not yet in suit, aud which we aball be ha,>py to rep resent. My associate In Washington City, Hon. John J. Weed, will lake the eailiest opDOrtunity of btiuging the question before the Court. The paragraph ot your correspondent refers to efforts made iu Congress, but we expect to obtain the de sired object in the Court*. rpnmand Mock. The Genera. Assembly, in August, 1572, euacted a law under the above title. As the question ol Fence or No Fence is be-ing agitated in a large number of counties in the State, and aa we have neard it frequently alluded to in our own county we give a synopsis of the act that the law may be fully understood. The first section enact- that iu every couuty Adopting the act the boundary line of each lot or parcel of land shall be a lawtul fence. Section second declares that no horse, mule, cow, hog or any animal caed or fit either for food or labor, shall be permitted to run at .large beyond the limits of the lauds of its owner. Section third provides that if any of the animals enumerated in section second shall commit any respass or shall be found running at large on the premises of another, whether enclosed or unen closed, or whether such animal is owned by t peraoa living in tho county or an adjoining county, it shall be lawtul for the owner of the prern ees to impound such animal until the ownei ■cereof shall pay all damages, Including cost and xperses, unless disposed of as hereinafter pro vided. Sect.on fourth provides that any one im pounding snail give such stock ail necessary feed, are and attention, lot which he is entitled torea sonat.'e compensation; and it is made the duty of the impounder to g've notice to the owner ol such impounding in twenty four houis thereafter, and if the owner is not known or ascertainee within three days alter the impouudiug the stock -nail be disposed of as estrays; and when saio animals are disposed of as e-.ti-ys, the proceeds ol the sale, after paying legal costs, shall be applieu O'at to the payment ot the damages including reasonable compensation far the feed, care and attention, etc. Section fifth provides that if any person shall maliciously impound stock, or shall injure or mal treat stock when impounded, such person shall, upon conviction, be guilty of misdemeanor, and hall be fined not exceeding 8106.00, or impris oned ,not exceeding one month, besides paying double the amount of damages actually done said stock. Section [six enacts that in case of disa greement between the party damaged and the owner of the stock, as to the amount of damages, or for expenses of care, feed and attention, the damaged party may institute suit before the Jus tice of the Peace in the District iu which the dam aged party resides, and said justice shall issue summons, returnable within five days, requiring the owner of said stock to appear, and upon evi dence shall give judgment lor the amount damages proven, also for feed, care, etc., and costs, which shall be enforced by execution, etc., and gives a preferred lien upon such stock for said amount and superior to all exemptions and homesteads. It further provides for appeal and repleving of the stock in cases ol litigation. Sec tion seven provides that if the petition of fifty freeholders shall be filed with the Ordinary asking for the benefit of this act such ordinary shall pro ceed to have an election. If the counter-petition of freeholders is filed, amounting to fifty persons, then the ordinary shall proceed no further ; if, however, twenty five more petitioners shall apply then the ordinary shall proceed to have an elec tion, alter giving notice, as elections are held for members of the General Assembly, said election to be he!d on tbe first Monday in July following Patrons of Husbandry. A Western correspondent of the New Fork World gives the following history ol the above named order: “Tbs legitimate business of the granges em braces everything that can be advantageous to its members. Among the more prominent matters now fairly inaugurated and in good working con dition may be mentioned a systematic arrange ment for rapidiy procuring and disseminating in formation relative to crops, tbe aspect of demand aud supply, prices ia various markets, the cost ot transportation trom point to point by various routes, the establishment of depots for the 6aie o! special products, so as to bring the consumer iD direct contact with the producer; also lor the pnrehase and exchange ot live stock, seeds, plants, and traits of all kinds; facilities for pro curing help and labor at home or from abroad, and work for those seeking employment; a well guarded system ot testing and ascertaining the merits of newly invented or newly introduced farming machinery and implements, the results ol which are at once communicated to all the members of the order. Its agents are constantly on the alert to expose and detect frauds and de ceptious of every kind and protect the members by every available means from all measu.es likely to injure their interests. * The membership of the order Is already suffi ciently large, and distributed over enough territo ry to illustrate, practically, the advantages of its organization. The interchange of products among the members has reached very large propoitions. The farmers of the West can supply their breth ren of the South with bread stuffs. and they find that the profits of both are vastly increased by tbe interchange. Another important fact is that efforts are being made to establish manufactures lu the West, so that the farmer can sell to the consumer at home instead of both parti-s paying enormous taxes for food tiansportation. “ The membership of the Patrons of Husbandry is daily increasing in numbers that are quite start ling and which clearly prove the intense earnest ness of purpose enlisted iu this great movement to unite the farmers of the United States in a self-protecting and self advancing organization. It is, as has been before intimated, exceptionally large in this State. From here it has spread southward into Ohio, Illinois, and Indiana, and through Tennessee into Mississippi and Alabama. In many other States east and west of this central line, as far weal as Texas and as far east as Maine, the order also flourishes vigorously. As one evi dence of the substantial character of its results iu lowa the fact may be mentioned that one third of all the elevators and grain warehouses of this State are owned or controlled by the granges, and no less than 5,000,000 bushels of grain were shipped by them to Chicago prior to December last. The number of cattle and hogs shipped in the same manner is enormous and with Increased profits to the farmers. In the purchase of agri cultural machinery and implements the pur •hases made through the advantages of the grange have saved to its members $365,000 by actual computation. Not less than 1100,000 will be invested during the year 1573 by the granges in establishing manufactories, and thus, by the bringing of skilled labor among them, will a home demand for the products of the farm be created. “In dealing with this great question of the co-operative union of the American Farmers we must include, in addition to the Patrons of Has- K andry, as amoDg those taking action against commercial and railroad monopolies and inspired by the same purpose that directs the granges, the organizations known in Illinois and Ohio, where something of a hereditary feeling exists against secret societies, the secret features of the order of Patrons of Husbandry has operated against tbe general establishment of the granges; but farm ers’ clubs, diflerent from the granges only in the fact that their meetings are public, occupy the field. “ In Illinois the farmers’ movement is making tremendous strides. Barely have two months elapsed since the first farmers’ club or grange was orgautzed, and yet at the {.resent time it is safe to say that ou r of the 1,500 townshiDa in tbe State mare than SOO have already organized clubs, or have the field occupied by the granges of the Patrons of Husbandry. Some people who have good means oi knowing place the number of these associations at 1,000, and others say that there are no fewer tban 1,200. The average membership of the clubs is It 0, and is ineressing'daiH. It is a fair estimate, therefore, to place the combined membersh p of the clubs and grange? of Illinois at marly or quite 100 000, with the prospect that by the fall they will inciuie iu their membership more than halt the voting population of the State. “ In the beginning of this Illinois movement the farmers, sem what disorganized and with only a vague purpose of reform iu their minds, went about their wotk knowing the wrongs aod disa bilities under wh : eh they suffered but not know ing where to look for an adequate remedy. They tud. it U true, two deficit* porpota* U view, the principal of which w s to cord.-: ire r broad mon >po!y of the State, which by the ruin .u? local ( eight tariffs charg'd Ur the tra:>; ortation of the produce, increasing to an tolerable degree the cost to the farmer cf all ucces.arjes of life for himself and his family and preventing him from selling his grair. a' any profit to himself, retains the lurnicr in a coodiuon ak n to poverty, sur rounded as he is by ge ,e r cus harvests. The other aim was to revolutionize the commercial system ot the “ middlemen,” who compelled them to buy their agricultural implements and farm machinery from them whether they would or not, as the agents of the manufacturers. At present, however, the c<u is quite different, and rLrough a series of conventions which have since been held and the discussions of the clubs the farmers nave come to understand the proper method of attaining the reforms they desire. Want they propose now to do is btiefiy to demand ol the Legislature to compel tire railroads to respect the lans regarding the freights aud passenger fare which have already been pasted by that body, and 'O see thnt the citizen is protected lrom txtor tion, robbery, and violence on the trains bv pass ing an act lor eu ample and efficient police force to protect passengers on railroads in their resist mce to the uniaalut rates ci fare demanded by the railroad employes. In rega.d to the “ mid uleme„” nuisance the remedy lies in :be direction ot the co-operative plan already in 6uch general orce io lows. Printers—what ihet ahe Expected to Do the London Journal has this to say about print ers; We believe that the masses loot; upon us printers as objects a little above tbe brute—a lit tle lower than mankind. It is expected ot him to make nonsense ol it. If a mistake should occur in the composition of what the author calls man uscript (hut what looks more like geese tracks around a frog pond), the printer is supposed to knew ali the Whims the author intended,and sup ply them accordingly. Tht printer must go-to church aud eulogise the sermon, even it ic were not equal to a page in the Dutch Almanac as a matter ol interest. He must go to the Mayor’s Court and tell ail that occurs; but witha’, he must not mention the names of the parties arrest ed. Must drink with everybody, but never get drunk—must “puff” ail sorts oi liquors, al though he is aware that two drinks ol some ol them would send hint to the tomb ot his lathers. Must pay his debts, aud give to every object of charity; yet if he asks for his dues from others, he must submit to any abuse they may choose to heap upon him. Everybody that wants his name in tbe paper must be accommodated. He must write ltngthiy obituaries on eveiy wretch that takes a notion to die—must praise them to the innocence of a saint—although he knows the individual to have been the greatest dinner un hung. The Dawson Journal says: “ Mr. Henry Miller, who lives near Chicasawhatchie, iu this county, met death suddenly and rather mysteriously on Thursday night last. Alter eating supper he went to a neighbor’s house, not far distant to sit until bed-time, and was apparently in good health. Re turning about the usual bed-time he retired. During the night his wife was aroused by a noisß in the room and inquired what it meaat. She was answered by Mr. Miiler that he believed he would choke to death. Mrs. Miller gave the alarm—medical aid was hastily procured, but no relief could be had, aud he died in a few hours. Stonewall Jackson.— The Southern Home learns from Gen. Pendleton that the English monu ment has been finished, but has not been sent over, owing to tbe unsettled stale of things in this eonntry. This monument is an expression of respect and admiration trem the leading mem - bers of the British Pailiament for the lamented hero, who died for the consti;ution of his country. Among the contributors to the monument were Hon. Mr. Gregory, now Governor General of Cey lon, and Hon. Beresford Hope, long a leader in the councils of the nation. - Austria aud Italy oppose the augumentation of the Suez Canal. The French Government, how ever, supports the increase of dues.
