A Valuable Newspaper.

The DoHar Weekly, which is miscellaneous
weekly publication Of the Philadelphia Ledger'
giving news and fictitious literature has now
at least a hundred dollars worth Of first rate
talsekoods in every number. The only truth
we zee in tie copy now before Us Is the ad-
mission that SO many Of the Northern agFicui-
,uri.,s have gone to the wars, that there
nsv he danger of less corn being planted than
usual il many Of the agricultural DISTRICTS
Il is thus, however, it adds, THAT IN all
ages war produces famine. Ii tho D'''"'
Necsyopcr wants another truth Tor It's next
.:.i:vn, it may state that there Is this ad'"n-
t ,ge of he Southern system Of labor. In war
nothing i sah;racted from ihe force that cu!-
| tiyates the soil. In fact, the breadth Of soil
! devoted this spring il the South 10 the growth
| 81 cereals is greater than ever before.
