The jailor at Trenton, county, Tenn , is paid $100 a year. It is probable the Virginia legislature will abolish chain gangs and the whip¬ ping-post. At a sale in Vieksburg, Miss., recent¬ ly, a plantation containing lj900 acres brought only $2,225. Out of ninety convicts hanged in tbe United States in 1881, Arkansas head the list with fifteen.

This is about $ 8 , 500 per acre, for six acres, it is ihe best because it is the oldest. The lar gest yield ever known from one tree eame from the oldest tree in the state, at St. Augustine, which bore 14,8000 oranges. This is held to prove that up to 70 or 100 years the yield of a tree will improve. There are several trees that have yielded 7.0i 0 and 8,000 oranges.
