..>ss HAVANA, May /, 1911.
It is with feelings Of the deepest sor-
row that I have TO add another to the al
ready long list of ontrages and insults
to our flag by British cruisers.
The brig A. f. Of Baltimore, Capt. G.
F. Driscoll, sailed from this place in the
month of September. for Cabinda. with
cargo Of dry goods, tobacco and powder.
Having met with bad weather al sea, he
was obliged to. put into Charleston 10 re.
pair whence he sailed on his voyage
Nothing material occurred until he arriv-
ed off Cabinda, when he was boarded by
two boats crews (fifteen in number) COM
manded by an English officer, but without
flag flying nor any visible sign of ma
.,ionality, armed to the teeth with cutlasses,
pistols, ecarbines. and daggers or long
knives. who insolently demanded his pa
spers, declaring at the same time that he
would take command Of the vessel. Capt.
s D. pointed to the American flag which he
had flying, and averred that he was an A.
merican vessel. engaged in legal trade,
and in proof thereof produced his papers.
which the English officer tried 10 obtain
possession:of, but not being permitted by
{ Captain D. he said: "never mind, l will
take you for a scoundrelfy Yankee negro
steale,, and have you all strung up at the

They then shaped the course of the yes.

breaking out the cargo to get at The rum

her daughter. was taken violently i'll; and

COMMUNICATION FOR INFORMATION.
CHESTER DISTRICT,
Busrow Farm, May II, IS4I: J

Busrow Farm, May III, lS4l:
To the Editor of the Camden Journal:
Ihave just seen in print the lorma-
ton of an Agricultural Society on swift
Creek, below Camden. with pleasure
address few lines TO the Corresponding
Secretary Of said Society.
Ihaye returned after a review OF my
farm, and have sal down in a good humor
with thanfulness, and with pleasure can
saw the prospects are fine, and on Just
grounds have strong reasons to believe in
the vicinity of our Society are the same
homes. with some small exceptions. We
mostly cultivate FIVE kinds of vegetation,
Corn, Cotton, Wheat, Rye and Oats. The
Corn begins to start off growing; the Cot
ton has ihe appearance of prosperity; the
Wheat. Rye and Oats promise to give
us a bountiful harvest,-and the Irish Po-
taioes are an exception. Our domestic
animals are of four kinds,-the Horse,
Cow, Hog and Sheep. The Horse is for
the draught, saddle or turf; but the two
former qualities are of the most use, rs
there are but few in our Society who are
sporters. We havelarge pastures and fine
meadows, bnt our cattle are very much on
the decline. For two years past, we have
had among them one of Pharoahs plaques.
There is an insect that comes onthem in
autumn that resembles a common tick,
bn, breeds and muhiplies in the manner
OF a louse. They continue until very late
in the fall, tiIlit becomes cold; they stick
in clusters, sucking the blood; the, cattle
are. most-of Them reduced to skeletons, a
great many die, and but few are fit for
beef. Our Hogs are the only table meat,
and our Sheep are almost extirguished by
the ,!evouring Of dogs. Our fruit trees
are loaded with fruit, particularly with
Apples, Peaches, Pears and Plums; more
SO than Ihaye observed in half century.
Our Fishing Greek Society consists OF
'but moderate farmers; butt am bold and
pleased to say that we have two members,
exceptions that few equal, and less are su-
perior-George H. Neely, who Won and
will obtain the first great prize, over
large number Of competitors, men Of great
skill and experience in farming. l can
also say Robert G. Mills has the neatest,
and most productive farm for tho location,
age, and means in the District, or will
venture to.say in the State.
Now, to conclude. I.hope to see more
of our public print with the use, skill and
profits OF AGRIcULTURE, as it is the es-
sence Of life, and less Of the divisions in
poliiics,2or The railing against the useful
system Of Banks.
