Litchfield enquirer., 1834-03-06

We find the following ingeniously writ- ten paragraph copied, without credit, in a Georgia paper. The subject matter IS m relation to the title. of ihe ''State Rights Sentinel''-one party contending that the word Rights should be followed by an a. postrophe ('), and the other that the apos- trophe should be omitted.
 War among the Types. ~- or 2 of our contemporaries are ling away at each other about points! The Augusta Courier thinks the 'in his neighbor's head misplaced. The Savannah Georgian in- terposes an and coincides in opinion with the Courier. Upon which the Republican comes down upon them with Il and 2 lines of doggrel that threaten to put to the controversy. The State Rights Sentinel thinks the criticisms of the 2 1st named pa- pers particularly pointed; in which the State Rights Advocate backs him with Us and ''''s. We only intend 10 say word by way of but other editors may take a greater O-7> in the squabble; and for aught we know, the controversy may come to fh and iii in which case it might be iiecessa- ry for the Legislature to. add to the pe-. nal code, and for the courts to place some of them in Is, where they would make a dolefnl figure. Editors had better attend to their own Ps and Qs, than to interfere with the Rights" of their neighbors. - Whilst 0postrOphising another they should not be too pointed. and never attempt to - out each others is, nor interrupt their respective ee's..s !. ,.5 t., k s.gt

 -Crusting Deer.---This term, which may. be new to many of our readers, is unfortu- nately but too familiar to the ears of sports men in this vicinity. When the snow falls to any considerable depth upon tie moun- tains, it not unfrequently happens that by reason of rains and long thaws, a crust is formed upon the surface, which although strong enough to bear up dogs, or men ap- on snow-shoes, is still SO weak that the poor deer falls through at every bound.-- This is day of jubilee 10 every poaching vagabond in the land. Rifles are needless, as the deer when overtaken, makes no re- sistance. Their legs are lacerated by the ice, and their track upon the snow crimson ed with blood. Whole droves are some- times caught, and their throa.s cut by men ana DuyS III pufsuts WHtie tHo StraggtefS ar0 overtaken, mangled and torn in pieces by plebian CUTS, to whom a fair field would of. fer no inducement or chance of success.- The present season is one that will long b, remembered. Ordinary hunting has giveI place to "a wanton butchery whichlwe fea has amounted almost to exter6ination.- In the latter part of December the snov fell upon our mountains to the depth Q from two to four feets upon this a cfus was formed, and an indiseriminate slaugh ter of the deer forthwith commenced.- The antlered monarch, the feeble awn and the doe heavy with young, have shar ed a common fate. It wasa season of car nival with the famished wolves, the cur and their masters. We have heard of on, individual, whosin "a single week killed up wards of 70, without firing gun. In thu towsfof Windham one of the largest buck ever seen in that vicinity. was killed unre sis.ingly by n boy who clambersd on hi. back and cut his shroat. He was describ. cd to us by man who saw him, as being { patriarch of the forest--witll hair almos white with age, and an,lers like an old fash toned armed chair. Upon amoderate, cal culation, over 1000 deer have, during th, month past, been slaughtered within 5l miles.-- CGtskiW Recorder. r Al <
