a paper in North Mississippi 49,
took to combine agricultural pursuits
with his profession; but he met with
very poor success, the crows ravapipg
his corn fields in an unprecedented
manner in spite of all the scare crows he
could erect. At the late election the
editor, who was not handsome man,
ran for beat constable. and was badly
beaten. Chagrin at his defeat affected
him so strongly that he retired to his
corn field and hung himself. His corps
was not discovered for two DAYS, and,
when it was found there was a perfect
rampant Of old corn all around it-not
the juice, which had he been alive, he
would no doubt have preferred, but the
original grain. The crows, mistaking
him for scarecrow, had brought back
all the corn they had stolen from him
and the adjoining fields in three wears,
and it is said there is enough of it to
keep his bereaved family soma wears
