The manufacture of leather in the thirteenth century seems to have been important, showing that leather jerkins and breeches were commonly worn. We have 19 skynners. 40 barkars, 6 sad delers, 3 cordeweners, 167 soutera, (shoemakers) and 8 glovers. The sur name fenster is a trade name denoting a maker of pock saddles. The commonest trades are taylour and srnyth, since one lived in almost every village. The taylours number 407, of whom 14(> are called by the Latin name of cissor. In addition to 261 smyths, several are specialized. There are two arnsmyths. three lokeamytha, three goldsmyths, five fferonrs (shoeing smiths) and six marshalls (farriers). The wryght wrought both in wood and metal. The number catalogued is 186, of whom 81 are called by the Latin name faU>r (French favre), one of the few cases in which the Latin transla tion of a trade name has become a com-, mon surname. The wryghts’ trade, like that of the smyths, was specialized. The arkwryght made the great arks or chests in which the clothes or meal were stored, and we find a plowwryght, a wheclwryght, two shippewryghts, 11 cartwryghts-and two glasswryghts (gla ziers), who were probably concerned with the windows of churches. Glass windows in houses were rare, as is still the case in Sicily or Egypt. The bakesters are few (15), suggesting that families baked their own bread There are 2G butchers (floshewer, buei r <vv 1 '■ .v heme I ;,b inch-T '. v '■ the surname potter shows that this tr V wa- in exist. !., ■ The fysshers (43), were opulent, being taxed 12 times as much as laborers.

Mr. Editor : Some years ago I took an idea that land was the safest investment that a man could make in Georgia, and as a consequence, I am now land poor; have more than I can profitably make use of, and consequently want to get rid of some, or all of it, and I have decided to adopt the following measure to get rid of it: I will say,in the first place, that the land is tbe best in Monroe county, is fine ly watered, and is adapted to raising cat tle, sheep and hogs, and is the best tor cotton, corn, wheat, oats and other grains in the county. There are a number of tenant houses on the place, and a home recently built that cost me over $3,000 to build. The land, in the first place, cost me from $25 down to $4 per acre—saying altogether, about $lO per acre, without improvements ; and to get rid of it, I will average the whole place at $lO per acre, in the following way : I will have the entire place, 1,600 acres, sub-divided into 50-acre lots, at $lO per acre, giving more than 50 acres to one party, if desired, and less than 50 to another, according to his ability to pay for it, as the case may be, the entire quantity to be drawn for. In other words, the number of lots and quantity of land to be put in a hut or box, and drawn out under approval of a com mittee of gentlemen, at some stated time, so that all shall have a fair chance to get a home at a low price, and no one has a chance of losing their m tney, or failing to get their value, as paid, and some get a farm at far less than cost The land is 12 miles so m Macon, a city of some 50,i ;t.tO or 60,000 people, and is adapted to maiket gardening, and for northern people who know how to work, it offers a fine opportunity for a colony of energetic citizens. It is all together, and would make a fine settlement, having the best of pastures, water, springs, creeks, etc. Tbe land is timbered with hickory, beach, oak and pine, and some cedar; in fact, it is the best place I know of, and I am satisfied the ed itor of the Call will vouch for what I tay. I would be glad to have any parties who mean business, to go over the plantation, familiarize themselves with the advan tages, arid communicate with me at Barnesville, before going into the matter, assuring them that I mean what I say. I have also a farm of 50 acres near Barnc-ville ior sale, >n good terms. In ; I iiti 'ii to the terms < tiered a’:> >V'.. I have c nclude l to make the terms of pay ment in four annual payments without j interest, which is tantamount to putting j the price of the land very low, The | titles to the land Lave been in the posses- | sion ol one or two parties for years, and : have never been questioned an 1 are as , S.
