The law requires tidily days’ notice to the adverse parties; but whether the thirty next lie ini'* the convening of the I.egidatuie or any other thirty during the re; .-ion seems not to hnve been quite clear. The point was much argued to-day in the council, by some of the ablest lawyers iu the State, to the final conclusion, without dissent, that any thirty days to run and expire be fore the adjournment of the session was Hie meaning and intention of the law. And upon this view It win thought advisable to defer the notice.

X I'AKTY OK l-KOMINBST CAI.IKOHNIANS IICAVK THK I'ACIKIC UOAII AT Ill'll IIKSKHT ON A DIAMOND HUNT. [ Omnha.Urc October JO.

Several experience iniucrs timl experts aecompaincd the party, ami the whole outfit, owing to Ilieir wealth and station in life, received the utmost courtesy from the official* ol the road* It was their first Intention to leave the iad at Rawlins, hut as the secret of Ilieir expedition hud leaked out. they took their departure from tin- Red Desert. Hi* said that their destination is distant from ten to lltleeii day*' travel on horseback from this point, and that they started in a direc tion widen would lead them south of Bridgcr's Folk. Their movements and Intentions vvete kept as secret as possible, but the conclusion is Unit Hie members of lids party compose the great California Diamond Company, about the organization of which there was so much excitement created by the San Francisco papers. It will be recollected that on the morning of August 1, ICdwmd Aruold, of Kentucky, arrived in this citywith a parly of colored men, and it was reported that they were going out on a hunting expedition It afterwards turned out that this Ar nold was a diamond discoverer, the secret having leaked out after and his parly Inal reached Laramie, from which place lie de parted for the land of diamonds as origi nally discovered by him, kut not until the Sentinel cf that place bad published a couple of sensations couceruing hitu Nothing more vv as heard of him until three or four days ago, when he passed -through tliis city on Ins way Fast The arrival of that Californian party at Red Desert and Ilieir mysterious departure just after Ar uoid had come Fast look* a little curious It Is claimed that a job has been put up on Arnold, be having been imbued by someone lo come Fast so Unit the Califor nian* could come iu dining bis absence and under mine him. \Vr look for further interesting developments concerning this matter, ami in u day or two shall proha bly obtain something more definite A Farmer s Experience.

After the viues are killed with frost, as soon thereafter as the weather ia warm enough not to chill the potato, plow them up with a small plow, aud pick them up careftilly. Round out a place in the earth about three inches deep, so as to make a small ridge around the circle Urge enough to hold thirty-five bushels, then sprinkle plenty of dry pine straw, place the plaut iiiKS on this bed. and cover over with dry straw to the depth of ten or twelve inch' -. then bauk completely over, the same day you dig At the same time ditch mound the bank so os to drain off the water. I do not think that I have lost one bushel in ten years, though we hud some very unfa vorable winters. The straw is better than boards or bark. You can also keep your eating potatoes in lids way.

Most Profit in Prompt Marketing. No producer should lie a speculator, not should a farmer, a* a rule, hold his crops, with the idea that he insy thereby influence the market. The effects of ull 1 contingent h ■ are discounted at the com mercial ''cubes that is, they ellect prices Into- before the produce is handled. Thus tiic conditions of crops are far better known to tlio*■ • whoso business it ie to ; market them and to the consumer than to j those who raise them. The former class have, in lluir course of business, the means of accurately ascertaining the ap proximate yield of all tho stuplo crops liy which their trade is effected, and they use those means in the most effective man ner. It is Ilieir business, and they suc ceed or fail in proportion as they manage well or ill. Farmers cannot compete w ith them in this, and generally suffer when they at tempt it. Asa title, it is true thul the sooner crops are marketed the better for the producer. An example muy be seen in the matter of wool, the present season. Those farmers who sold ilieir llceces as soon n they were shorn did well, while those who held on for higher rates, and tlio*i: who still hold on, have lost, or will probably loose fin with the pork market. The lirst hogs ready for Hie butcher, more especially those for the reluil trade, as fresh polk, rarely fail In bringing lietter prices Ilian those coining iu with the crowd a month or two later Hut it is in grain that the farmer 10-es most by delay. From the moment his crop is harvested it is the prey of enemies Rats and mice consume it, and the weevil silently and secretly eats out its heart, llovv much ire sutlers by these industrious enemies one cannot estimate. Every farmer knows how it Is himself to his sorrow, and vet year by year he waits, an I -vails, for Hie highest prices, which lately come, and when they do come they fail to caver his !o- > * To thrash early, and realize the highest price he may, is nearly always, if not always hi* best course, and the most profitable. It is his privilege to speculate, lint if he loses let him mil lay the blame tp , his own proper business. PERSONAL. Holla the actress, is quite ill. Victor lingo is about to marry.

There Is now and then a person so stu pid as to believe that advertisements in uewspupers arc not generally read, and that money expended iu advertising is practically wasted. Even such will con cede that if a hundred men of polite ad dress. of lluent speech and ready wit were to call daily or weekly each upon an hun dred others and get the eats of caclt long enough to say J no. Smith, or Jones, or Thompson at such a place, has such and such goods at such prices, or would sell a farm, or house and ldt, or had lost a horse or pocket book, or would loan money, etc —vve say such men will concede that the services of this one hundred men would be of great value to Smith or Jones, and in some measure advantageous to the party to whom this statement was made This hundred men could not be employ cd to go Irom door to door and make this statement to ten thousand people at less than u cost of several hundred dollars each trip. All this is done by the newspaper ut a cost of a few shillings or a few dollars at most, and the visits arc made week after week, day after day. The messenger who travels addresses himself to the ear and takes the party addressed when he may have his thoughts absorbed in business or | other matters ; but the newspapers reach es the party through the eye, when the reader has his thoughts solely fixed upou I the paper before him. Hut those who affect to believe that j there is little use in advertising urge as an j objection that advertisements are not read. They cati be easily convinced of their er ror in tiiis respect by making inquity.— Let them insert an advertisement offering ’ to purchase an article that is tolerable plenty in the market, and they will be flooded with offers to sell before the ink of the advertisement is dry. An enterprising j weekly that has a circulation of one, two , or three thousand copies is in a position to the villuge merchant great good, and for which as a rule, the publisher does not get one-fourth of what lie justly deserves. In i its sphere the weekly is of quite as much 1 service to the advertiser as is tho daily, and oftentimes it enjoys the privilege of being the exclusive family visitor, a privilege the daily seldom has. — Union nod AiUertbcr, Hochotcr N. y.

IT is universally conceded that advertising- is a necessity to success in business; it is also conceded, b> the shrewdest business men, that newspapers are the tiest medium tor reaching all parties whose trade is desired. THE MONROE ADVERTISER reaches more of the people trading with Ma con than any other journal published in the country; it is, therefore, the hot medium of communication with the plauting intere-ts. We will be happy at any lime to furnish rcter ences to leading merchants here and elsewhere, who will testify to the fact that they have re ceived orders for goods from parties’who r, ad their cards in The .tdierfwcr Iu fact, many who have availed themselves of its columns, candidly say that its value exceeds that of ali other journals in which they are represented The Adiertieer has the freshness of vouth a id the ripen.-ss of age, and is therefore deserve Iv successful.
