Hop RArsING-Mr John George has
about 42 or 5 acres OF hops growing on Bal
ley Davenport's land, near the Mammoth
Garden which look very promising. A good
crop of hops, at present prices, produces
about Thousand dollars t. the acre, and
Mr.. George thinks that the rich lands of Hi.
mole, we'll as the climate. are peculiarly
adapted to successful hop raising.
Mr.. George has also leased Burrall's
brick pork house. on the levss near the Coal
Valley depot, aud fitted it up as a malt
house
We think our farmers would find it very
profitable tn devote Few acres of ground to
the cultivation of hops. A thousand dollars
an acre pays.

TAKE THE PAfERs-N. P Willis, the vet.
10 following verses with regard to taking The
apere, which We commend to the perusal
1t of our readers, bat those who are in the
hit of borrowing their neighbors' papers
lstead of subscribing, Us they should:
Why dent you take the papers?
They're the life of my delight;
Except about election time,
And then read for spite.
Subscribe you cannot lose cent,
Why should you be afraid
Forscash thus paid is morey lent
At interest four-fold paid.
Go, then, and take the papers,
And pay to-day, nor pay delay,
And my word for it is inferred,
You'll live until you're gray.
An old neighbor of mine,
While dying with q cough,
Desired to hear the latest news
While he was going OF.
took the paper and l read
OF some new pills in force;
He bought a box--and is he dead ?
No-hearty as a horse.
know two men as much alike
AS e'er you saw two stumps,
And no phrenologist could find
A difference in their bumps.
One takes the papers, and his life
Is happier than kings,
His children all can ead and write
And talk of men and things.
The other took no paper, and
While strolling through the wood,
A tree fell down and broke his crown,
And killed him-"very good.
Had he been reading of the news,
At home like neighbor Jim,
I'll bet a cent that accident
Would not have happened him.
why don't you take the papers?
Nor from the printer sneak,
Because you borrow from his boy,
a paper every week.
For he who takes the papers,
And pays his bills ~hen due.
Can live in peace with God and man.
And with the printer too.

To THE FRIENDS OF THE ARGUS We are
informed that the plaintiff in a suit recently
tried in our circuit court, who employed
Sweeney & Jackson to attend to the case,
wanted to publish the advertisement In the
ARGUS, aud SO directed Sweeney & jackson,
but was told in reply, that they never pub
ished any advertisements ia the ARGUS, and
that they would attend to it's publication in
the UaioB. These facts arc related to us BY
the plaintiff 10 the case, and We believe them
We therefore advise all persons who despise
such low-livsd trickery aud msanness, to
avoid Sweeney 6 Jackson and employ law
ysrs who will pay some respect to the wish
es of their clients, and who will not descend
to such petty tricks to deprive democratic
paper of patronage and put money into tbs
pockets of their radical niger organ. When
person employs lawyer, that person has a
right TO direct the lawyer as to what shall be
done. The lawyer is the servant, the en-
ployee and, were we the emnloyer. our d.
rections would be followed or we should dis
miss the lawyers very quick, and employ
those who would obey orders.
We advise all people who have a contempt
for such meanness and trickery as Sweeney
l. Jackson practice to deprive democratic
newspaper of patronage, to avoid them on all
occasions. If you have any law business, 60
to men who viii obey your directions, and
who are above such little, petty, political
spite. There are plenty of good, honorable
lawyers in town, who are vastly superior to
Sweeney jackson, andSwhose charges are
much more reasonable, viz: Osborn & Curtis
Ell. c. Connolly, Geo. W. Peasants, Alfred
Webster, or J. B. Hawley. Neithe Z
OF these gentlemen would stoop 70
low rs to attempt to thwart the wishes Of q
client for the purpose of depriving demo-
cratic newspaper of an advertisement.
