Hon. C. A. Nutting.
E sew here we publish a card from this dis
tinguished gentleman. It is full of spice,
aud quite to the point. We trust that Mr.
Nutting is mistaken in assuming that one of
his colleagues was so ungraceful as to write a
card derogatory of him under an assumed
name; and we think likely be is.
About the Nutting Bond bill, there is one
thing certain. ,Ko mao, whether anonymous,
or of open signature, will rob him of the
credit of this capital measure. The merit of
the whole matter was not in the original idea
ot taxing the people to an extra extent,
and paying off t K e floating debt by a
series of quickly mituring bonds, but in
the nice details of the bill, and
tne judgment displayed, sticking to it as
' the sheet anchor of financial salvation, and
engineering it through an Assembly that was
disposed to thick it wouldn't do. To Mr.
Nutting especially, and to Mr. H. D. McDan
iel in a scarcely le>s degree, does this splen
did honor belong. However, it is idle to dis
cuss ihis matter. The people have given Mr.
Nutring the laurels; aud newspaper scribblers
can not affect the verdict. For ourselves, we
are proud to see him wear them.
AVKKSIO* TO FARM LlFK.
HOV.* THE SOUTH IS GROWING POORER AND THE
PEOPLE BECOMING BANKRUPT.
The following letter was received yesterday
by one of the editors of the Herald. It is
but one of a large number of similar letters
received at this office, aud we have concluded
to avail ourselves of this public method of
giving an answer to all :
, Fla, Feb., 19, 1874.
Dear Sir :—Can t you procure me a situa
tion in Atlanta in some mercanti!e house?
I have been farming here for four years, and
giving liens year by year on my crop, «n3
tach year I have found myself growing poor
er and poorer until 1 am disheartened and
feel like running away, and leiving every
thing to take c ire of iUelf. I have a splendid
plantation, 1,700 acres of land, 400 open, and
WOO of fine land to open, and 500 acres com-
min pine land. I have eight good mules,
and farming implements, but I am tired over
seeing for others, and finding myself, and I
beg that jou will do what y< u can to get me
a situation. Yours truly,
The above is only a sample of a large
number of letters which are received by
almost every mail. I: has become so tedious
to reply to them separately, that we have de
cided to write a general reply through the
Herald.
if you have a farm, stay on it.^Determine
to make it your home, and employ your time
in adding to its value. The great car6e of
onr country is the impatience of our people
to move to town and engage in any other
pursuit except farming, in traveling through [
the country you find a large number ol farm
ers who appear to be only &ta}ing on their
farms temporarily. They are cultivating
them with very much the same disposition
that the California miner digs gold: juat to
enable them to get money enough to go some

with a family, who has a planta
tion of seventeen hundred acres,
desiring to move to Atlauta to engage in
c'erkiDg is a sad commentary, either upon
tbe man's intelligence or our system of farm
ing. We should be inclined to think tbe for
mer, if this cise was not like so many but -
dreds of others. If a farmer will make bin
own supplies and cotton his surplus product,
it is impossible tor him to break farming. We
showed by an article in the Herald recently
in the way of appropriating money for the
payment of tbe bounty due colored soldiers

Freedmen’8 Bureau, the Secretary of War
will, in a very short time, have to discontinue
all such payments.

The Senate this morning proceeded to tbe
consideration of a bill to appoint a commis
sion to inquire into the alcobolio liquor
traffic.
The Senate to-day continued the financial
debate, Messrs. Merriman, Sherman, Allison
and Morton taking part. There was a sharp
discussion between Morton and Schurz, grow
ing out of the debate of yesterday, in which
Morton taid Schurz did not understand the
country in which he lived. In reply to Mor
ton to-day, Schurz said Morton made mistate-
ments, atrocious and willful. Morton retort
ed by characterizing tbe argument of Schurz
as disingenuous. Carpenter called both to
order and apologies followed. No votes.

ENGLAND.
The Ashantee War — Reported Heavy
Fighting, and Severe Loss on the
Part of the English.
London, February 25, 1874.
A report has reached here that a great bat
tle had been fought at Coomasie between the
Ashantees and a force under General Sir
Garnet Walseley. The engagement is said to
have lasted a whole day. and to have closed
with no decided result. The loss of the
British troops is .given as nearly 300, includ
ing many officers. The Highlanders alone
are rrported to have had 150 men killed and
woanded. Geueral Sir Garnet Walseley wa.**
said to be in need of rt inforceoients which
are five miles off.
LATER.
The War Office is without official advices of
the reported buttle between the English and
Ashaotees, but nnoffi ial reports say that the
battle was fought at Acroomboo on tbe 31st
of January, aud not at Coomasie. Among
tbe killed were Major Baird and Captain
Buckle.
Tbe Globe says that if tbe news be true, tbe
only course left is to effect a safe retreat to tbe
coast.
A special dispatch to the Standard says tbe
Ashautees entirely surrounded the British
army, but were eventually driven off with
great loss. The principal war chief was
killed. The King has taken command in
person, and it was expected that he would re
new the attack.
DELAWARE.
A DARING RESCUE—FOUR BURGLAR* MAKE
THRIR ESCAPE FROM JAIL.
New Castle, February 25, 1874.
Four bank burglars, Lawton Hunt, Burt,
Carter and Hope, under sentence for ten
yeArs^iritb Frazier, under a life sentence tor
mnrder, were rescued by a gang of burglars.
They scaled tbe prison walls by ladders
brought with them.
After securing tbe Warden they opened
the prisoners’ cells by means of jack-screws,
forcing open the windows. There wtre
twelve or thirteen menfengaged in the rescue,
who ore supposed to have come from Phila
delphia in a tug and escaped in the same way.
About one o’clock this morning Israel Rid
ding, the night warden of the jail, hearing a
slight noise in the yard, opened the door,
when be was immediately seized by a gang of
a dozen men. They gagged and hand-cuffed
him, tied his feet and put him in a coal-hold.
One of them threatened his life with a drawn
Knife, but another member of the gang, known
as Big Frank, interfered. They got over tbe
wall by two short ladders tied together which
they brought with them, and oarried off with
them E. Frazier, who was under a life sen
tence for tbe murder of Allison. It is
supposed that the party reached here in a tug
boat, which had been seen off New Castle laat
night, and disappeared this morning. Big
Frank, mentioned in the dispatch, is one of
the party whipped some time ago, and for
whose rescue be ore tbe whipping a plot was
formed, but did not succeed, being foiled by
tbe citizens being on their guard.

THE SIAMESE TWINS.
THE AUTOPSY OF THE TWDM— INTERESTING
DISCLOSURES.
Philadelhhia, February 25,1874.
The sesond edition of the Medical Times
states that the autopsy of the Siamese Twins
was continued on Friday last, resulting in
some interesting disclosures. It says that on
Friday the Commission oontinued the autop
sy on tbe Siamese Twins and made some im
portant dicoveries. They found thot the two
livers which were supposed to be joined only
by blood vessels were really bat one body,
the parenchimotos tissue beiDg emtinuous
between them so that when they were re
moved from tbe bodies and \ laced oa the
table they formed one mass, the so-called
tract of portal contenuity is, therefore, a liver
tissue.
It will be rtmembered that Chang was said
to be possessed cf one more pouch than Eng.
When the liver was removed, however, an up
per hepatic pooch was found also proceeding
from Eng, so that the band contained four
pouches of pentonreum, besides the liver tis
sue. Thf so disclosures show that any attempt,
