THIS OYSTFR HILL. Bomo Views of Dr A. Oernler With Re gard to It. Wilmington' Island. Oct. 4 —During a i Tisit to the city last -Friday I ascertained j for the first tini * the character of tho oyster bill now bcf(Hethe Legislature. It is known that l drafted the terrapin bill, also that with other* I have contemplated an oyster law for several years and, as I have l>eeu asked whether this was my bill, I feel com pelled to address you an emphatic public denial. Being an island property owner and, therefore, a party apparently to be bene fited by the jtresant bill, and my sons be ing in the oyster shipping business for sev eral years, my position seems peculiarly favorable for just and impartial criticism. Xs a citizen I disapprove of it, because sec tion 3 with its ‘"color of title” foreshadows a possibility, if not intent, of fraudulent ac quisition of public property; as one inter ested in the oyster trade I condemn it in view of its probable unlimited curtailment ot the public dotnan; as an island property owner 1 would favor it, but only, if it ap plied to marshes now truly and honestly be longing to each sea island plantation, and such are generally of very limited extent. It correctly understood ‘"color of title” means' for instance, if A wishes to grab any number of acres of the public marshes he gets 8., who has no claim whatever to the property, to give him a title, and after one year it is his, unless some other party can produce a better one. Should such a bill pass, all tho most valua ble oyster grounds would be promptly placed under “color of title,” in order to make the title bear as old a date under the law as possible. But, Mr. Editor, permit me to embrace this opportunity of bringing the necessity of the passage of a just and practical protective oyster law before those of the public most interested in the subject. I have beeu located here, at my grand fathi r’s homestead, for the past twenty-one years, nearer to, perhaps, the most valuable oyster grounds south of the Potomac, and am in a position to know, and all oystermen will bear me out, that oysters have very greatly diminished in quantity. Nor could it have been otherwise under the improvident and wasteful practices of oystermen. The banks too of Raccoon oysters, which formerly furnished stock for opening, have nearly all disapeared except near private landings and now recourse is had to the smaller tonged oysters for that purpose. Large quantities of shell and opened oysters are an - nually shipped north and without protection the banks may soon be exhausted. When some years ago I first made the experi ment of shipping oysters to New York the Ocean Steamship Company considered it a case of shipping coals to Newcastle. Last winter to procure the supply for a ship ment of 272 gallons opened oysters and fifty barrels in the shell my sons had to send into Beaufort county, South Caroliua, under a license of $25, and this inclusive of the out put of our own planted grounds aid what ten oystermen could gather in one week from the public banks within the county. A practical oyster law should embrace the following features: 1. It should be unlawful to take or catch oysters from the public beds for any pur pose between May 1 and Sept. 1. 2. Oysters should be culled on the beds from which they had been taken. (Laws of Maryland.) 3. There should be license of from $2 for small boats to $5 for sloops under custom house tonnage. (Law of Maryland.) 4. The use of dredges should be prohib ited. 5. Any citizen should be privileged to bed or plant oysters under certain condi tions. 6. Planted or bedded oysters should be protected by law-. 7. The owners of land on the coast should be entitled to plant oysters to the distance of 120 feet below low water mark opposite the marsh lands strictly belonging to tho plantations, as well as opposite the terra firma, on taxable land. (The limit of such marshes may be defined.) Oysters cannot survive on sandy or soft muddy bottom. On the coast of Georgia areas of bottom of proper character are very limited in extent, frequently consisting of onlv a few square feet, surrounded by a wide territory of soft mud. According to the present law, one may plant oysters in any one river or creek 120 feet below low water mark a distance of 500 yards, but there exists probably nowhere in the [State of Georgia a continuous area of 20,000 square yards (a trifle over four acres) of proper bottom, nor could a safe one be made artificially without great expense, and then only under most favorable circumstances. The Maryland law says: “That the owner or owners of any land bordering on any of the navigable waters of this State, the lines of which extend into and are covered by said waters, shall have the exclusive privi lege of using the same for protecting, rais ing, bedding, or depositing oysters within the lines of their own lands; and any owner or owners of land lying and bordering upon any of the waters of this State, shall have power to locate and appropriate, in any of the waters adjoining hfs, her or their lands, one lot of five acres for the purpose of pro tecting bedding, etc.” Tho present law gives the owner of island property only the right to plant oysters op posite the taxable land, but frequently the wash of the sand of the taxable property renders the bottom totally unfit. Thus Charles Baretow, the most extensive land owner on this island (1,350 acres) has on a taxable frontage of two miles on Warsaw river not a square foot of bottom upon which an oyster could be planted, while only opposite the small body of marsh between his land and Turner's Rocks the bottom is adapted to oysters. Were I not satisfied •f the fact that the withdrawal of these small bodies of marsh from the public privilege would rather lienefit the oyster trade eventually, and would not materially curtail the public do main. I should withhold my advocacy of section 7 from self interest, because we pro cure many more oysters from the natural lieds than wo could expect from our planted grounds. Furthermore, every oyster pro tected or planted becomes of benefit to the oystermen, because when it spawns there are thousands of chances to one it will all float away with the tide to deposit itself as spat somewhere on public ground. In consequence of the poor yield more dead shells than oysters are brought up in the tongs, and in order to avail themselves of as much of the tide ns possible the cull ing out of the dead'shells is deferred until Ihe boat is filled. Frequently small boats nre repeatedly emptied into larger ones and the culling is then performed in the flood tide, when all the small unmerchantable oysters and the dead shells so important as points of deposit for the spawn are destroyed by being buried in the mud. Therefore tho ne cessity ot Section 2. No one regularly en gaged in the business of oystcring would ob ject to a reasonable license as a protective measure. Section 3 might po&ibly have the effect of compelling occasional oyster takers to pay more attention to their crops for a support. A. Okmlkii.

Hurley,|Wis , Oct. 7.—A most horrible discovery has Ciei made in this town. Seven men have beeu found foully mur der* !. Hurley is filled with dives of the lowest character. One of these haunts of infamy was situated on the brink of a deep ravine just off the main street of the village. It was luckily burned in the great fire aud was not rebuilt, it was near the ruin that the terrible secret was disclosed on Monday. Two hunters started out for game and chose this ravine to commence operations in, but before they had gone very far on their way they suddenly lost their dog and for some time were unable to find him. At length they heard him giving veyt to a prolonged senes of howls and hastened in the direction of the noise. Upon approach ing tho place, their olfactory organs were saluted by a most horrible stench —so terri ble that they retraced their steps. They kept whistling and calling to their dog until he at last followed them, but bringing with him in his mouth a blood stained and tattered silk cap such as is com monly used by trainmen in summer. The fact that there were some tufts of human hair adhering to a jagged rent in the cap, together with the dog’s anxiety to return to the spot where he had found the ghastly relic, induced the hunters to brave the dreadful odor and institute a search. They went, and what a sight met their horror-stricken eyes! Right behind the ruins of the old dance house, under some rotten logs, and under a slight covering of earth, lay seven decom posed corpses, evidently of murdered men. There they lay just as their slayers had thrown them. Some with gaping wounds and distorted limbs showing that they had fought hard for their lives, while others lay huddled up as if their murderers had done their fiendish w ork while their victims lay in a drunken stupor. The hunters informed the proper author ities and an investigation followed, but no clew could be found to their identity. The corpses were so decomposed as to be beyond recognition, and the fiends that had placed them there had taken good care to rob them of everything. The remains of the seven men were buried in one grave. MEDICAL. INVALIDS, And all those whose systems are run down need a medicine that will act gently and does not weaken. Simmons Liver Regulator is not only mild in its action, but invigorates like a glass of wine, giving tone and strength to the body. Extract of a letter from Hon. Alex ander H. Stephens, of Ga.: "I occasionally use, when my condition requires it, I>r. Simmons Liver Regula tor with good effect. It is mild and suits me better than more active remedies ” A Home Remedy Unequalled by any other. The Regulator is the best preventive and preparatory medicine. No matter what the attack, a dose of it will afford relief, anil in ordinary cases will effect a speedy cure. Its use for over half a century by thous ands of people has indorsed it TIIE BEST. “The value of a household remedy con sists in its accessibilit y as well as its effi cacy, and many attacks of disease are warded off by convenient medicines. Simmons Liver Regulator is a most valuable medicine to have in the house, and I heartily recommend it as the 'ounce of preventive’ so much talked of aud wished for.”— T. W. Worrell.
