From the Southern Cultivator
Farm Economy-DivIrslfyin Crops.


Mr.. EDITOR Il am very willing to admit x the
impropriety and nexpediency of giving all the labor
and prime land of the country to the exclusive cul-
abundant proof throughout the cotton region, to
prove the above statement to be too true. Admit
that make more money, by making cotton,
rice, sugar, even should we have to buy little
and meat yearly, yet hold it to be gross i'm
propriety-because, our lands are worn out and We
thus are losers die.
Let examine Take land at average price
of SIS per acre, clear, put on buildings necessary,
cultivate upon this system and how long before said
lands will not produce two third creep! Thus have
we lost one-third of capital. Take the other
hand planter who buys, clears and builds with a
view of never making over a two-third cotton crop.
He plants corn, small grain, potatoes rests portion
of his land, raises his stock, and meat: in
addition to this, his management will enable him TO
rear negroes his negroes will be stout and hale
certainly larger and his land will not fall materially
short in any period of ten years. Suppose this man
rests only tenth of his land yearly, suppose he has
only one-twentieth IN good pasture and suppose
he has only mule or horse to sell every five years,
in the meantime supplying himself. VIII he not
grow rich while his go ahead neighbor will have to
seek place every 90 years any how or do as
many do, work a poor dilapidated plantation, be-
his dwelling has cost him too much to be able
to sell for the value of land
The man with 25 or so hands may afford to live
we'll and buy few hands, but if the small planter
of or 10 hands, patterned after him, what would
he do! contend it is not SO much in the economy
of the last as it is in his growing of varied crop
that the difference is seen.

LOUISIANA, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER %
Election Of Probate Judge.


Il should be borne in mind by the voters Of
this County, that an election for a Probate Judge
comes of on Monday, the 4th day Of November.
Heretofore the probate business has been con-
Quoted by the County Court; but at the last SEES
sion Of the Legislature, upon the petition ola
portion of the citizens of the county, a bill was
passed submitting it to the people, whether they
desiredthis business disconnected from the Coun-
~ Court or not. At the late election a majority
Of the votes polled were cast for the act, and it
thus became a law. Consequently an election is
to be held, as above stated. on the FIRST MON
DAY IN NOVEMBER, to elect some individ-
ual 10 perform the duties of that Office. There
seems as yet to be but little interest manifested
IN regard to this election. This should not be
SO. The Office is one pe great importance, and
should cah forth at least some attention to it.
- The officer to be selected under this act, is to
have exclusive original jurisdiction in all cases
relative to the proving Of last wills and tesla.
ments granting letters Parliamentary and Of ad-
MISUNDERSTANDING and displacing guard.
ana or curators Of orphans, minors, or persons of
unsound nind-in binding out apprentices, and
in the settlement and allowance Of accounts Of
executos, administrators and guardians-to hear
and determine all disputes and controversies re.
spectihs wills-the right Of exscutorship and ad.
ninistrstiOn, or respecting their duties or &C.
counts-and also to hear and determine all suit.
and ether proceedings instituted against execu.
tors or administrators upon any demand against
fAe estate Of their testatOr or intestate-and ir
all proceedings for the assignment of dover.
1t will thus be seen that an extensive iurisdic.
ton Is vested in the hands of this officer, and
every citizen is interested in having a compe.
tent man selected for the discharge of these i'm.
POrtant duties. Each and every one should re.
~ceIlert, that important rights in regard to bis OWE
estate may have to be adjudicated by him. The
property and persons of helpless orphans, ar.
more or less entrusted to his care. As yet Their.
are but two candidates, S. F. Murray, the pres.

Whilst TIL. business was in the hands Of ths
County Court Mr.. Murray has discharged th,

0Dunterfeit Missouri $500

The Bankers, Brokers and Merchants Of
St Louis were thrown into great excite
|ment Yesterday, by the discovery Of Q large
amount Of counterfeit $50 bills on the Banl
Of the State Of Missouri. The followingil
Ia description Of the counterfeit, as furnish.
"a US by Mr.. Hughes, the present President
of the Bank.
"Counterfsit $50-Bank Of the State Of
Missouri; general appearance good. On
examination the engraving will be found tc
be much cqarser than the genuine, ssPeci'
ally the drspery of the female figure. Sig
natures Of the President and Cashier very
we'll done. The counterfsits are signed by
Jno. Smith, President. In the Jn0 the no
are written out distinct-in the genuine no
runs together. In the counterfeit signed
X. Campbell, Prest., there is a slight -four.
ish at the termination Of the first stroke Of
the R, not in the genuine"
The officers of the Bank pronounce the
counterfeit well executed. Nither Mr.
Smith nor Mr.. Campbell sucA eded correct
ly in pointing out the counterfeits, when
presented with genuine. Mr.. Shnrlds,
Cashier, gives it up that he cannot detect
the counterfeit and genuine Of his own sig
nature, in all cases. From these facts it is
obvious that the greatest caution will be-
with those who handle the 500
notes of the Bank.
The notes sppear to have originated in
California. Recently Mr.. John s. McCune
$1,000, from a son in California,
in $50 bills, and deposited the money in
Bsnk, Of which $4,000 proved to be coun-
t~erfeit. No suspicion was excited at the
time of the deposit, and $4,000 Of the
counterfeits was paid out to Messrs. Z. W..
Clark & Bros. Bankers, who discovered the
fraud only after their attention was called
to the subject Of the coupterfeits. ON
that the money was counterfeit, Mr.. Nc
Cune, promptly signi6ed his intention to-
set the matter right with the Bank. by re-
deeming the spurious notes.
Messrs. Page and Bacon, Bankers, rel
ceived notice from their California CORES
pondents that counterfeit $50's were inl
there, but the same persons for
wsrded several counterfsits to them in o.
of other notes.
In the counterfeits shown US, we thought
the paper appeared to be q shade lighter
than the genuine, but this appearance msyi
be because they had been handled but lit
tie. in other respects, there was no per.
ceptible difference except that noted inI
