THE COUNTRY. PREss.--The
country newspaper deserves eoun-
try support. 1t is especially de-
voted to the welfare of the dis
trict in which it is published; oc-
cupies itself with the endeavor to
advance the interests Gifts neigh
borhood, and can do more for
those interests than the city jour
nails. If a planter takes but one
newspaper, it should as rule, be
the paper published near him in
preference to any other. The
planter should support the jour
nal which is deyoting itself to i'm:
prove his condition. 1t is from
the country papers that The pub
lie learns almost all that it knows
about the advantages offered by
different sections to the person de-
string to invest in land or In pro-
duee;, almost all that to knows of
the political feeling Of the sagri-
cultural population, the state of
crops, and, indeed, the life and cir
euinstanees of the planter The
Crescent adevotes a large share of
its available space odaily to its
country exchanges. No part OF
this paper is more acceptable to
it's readers. We feel it our duty
to acknowledge the obligation,
and to say a word of the useful
ness Of the country press. itna II
The above flattering, notice Of
the country press is from the col
umns of the New Orleans Ores
cent. Col. Nixon rises above the
usual obsequeousness of many Of
ourIstilt-walking contemporaries Of
the State-some even outside OF
the Crescent City-and pays a
passing tribute to the worth Of
the country press. Aword oflen.
couragement from SO able a source
is truly flattering, Ofthe ability
with which the country press is
conducted, and of its usefulness I'd
, the the country, let the public pass
sentence. Country journalism is
a poorly rewarded occupation, fol
the amount of labor necessary tt
keep moving with the pace o.
events. All are ready to use its
columns, but few ready to come
up to terms. biss as9d zed II

- The editor of the Columbus
(0.)E Journal draws attention to-
some remarkable facts connected
with the German immigration.
DE says it has probably escaped
general observation how large an
increase there has been in the
number of this class of newcomers
since the accession Of Austrian
territory by Prussia. The Column,
bus emigrant agents REPORT states
that the-inerease-is in great part
causedrbyctheAfaet athat thef Ger
mans born under Austrian rule
refuse to serve in the Prussian mi
itia, from which that army is
recruited g They prefer rather to
immigrate.., This idea, indeed, is
borne out by the fact that nearly
all the emigrants for the. past six
months have been young men,
very few women coming with
them. The, editor of the ,Colum,
bus Journal furtherstates thatfor
the six months ending July /, 81
AIS emigrants have reached that
city, seeking homes in in fertile
West, against Il, 909 for the same
time time in 1866 showing, an in
crease of 1868. 1.-The arrivals for
the six months of this year were
a as, follows: January, 1,447; Feb
ruary, 1899 /; March, 1875 april,
1896; May, 1924 !; July, 9, 43z-
The majority Of these emigrants,
We are told, are from Prussia and
Hanover. All of them, even the
Prussians, do ot.like their Gov.

says correspondent Of the Jour.
nal, 'sthat in any former year SO
many people have arrived from
Germany who were possessed Of
