for forty cents and upward per acre.
and land too that is suitable for stock

years or longer. Large numbers have
paid for their ranches in a few years,
and almost entirely by stock raising,
as it requires 50 lttIc capital to begin
In fact the only danger there is
in this business, is from the Siraying
off of stock, and dry season; the for.
mer difficulty is easily prevented by
attending to them, aud the other by
driving the stock to other localities,
and at but little expense. Stock re

fact that we have no winter weather.

Cas- MAS Will HIS CHILDREN OFT OF TIE
CUSTODY OF THEIR MOTHER l-Some days since sp-
pcaion was made TO Judge Williams for writ OF
habeas corpus by p. {. shannon, esq, on behalf ct
MargaIetts Hamilton, widow Of the late George 3.
Hamilton, for the recovery Of her three chidren,
who have since the death OF their father been held
in custody by his two brothers, Samuel and Fultos
Hamilton. The writ was made rcturnabe ON Satnr-
doy the 18th inst, when the case came up 10 the Dr.
trict Court 1t appeared that the brothers inaw OF
Mrs. Hamilton retained the children by virtue o. ne
will Of her hurband, which provided for and appointed
for each of said children separate guardians. M.
shannon on behalf of the applicant demands tina. the
children shall be restored 10 the mother who, In case
of the fathers decease il the next natural guardlan
and that no law, human or divine, can separate her
from thein long she s able and willing To support
and care for them.
In opposition 10 the application it Is argued tbsS
the will Of the father should DO binding; and that %
had q perfect right TO make such provision for the
future training Of his children az he deemed proper
The Legislature empowers father to make wn',
and il would be gross violation of the spirit Of tts
law 10 anLul such document 60 long a. no legal op-
jecions could be taken to it.
His Honor Judge Williams refused to give baNy
decision the application az the question r.sed wss
entirely new and one OF vital importance to tho par.
ties concerned. He would consider the matter, ana
after makirg proper Investigations and consulting
wit Judge Hampton, would give bis decision.
