LAND LAYING IDLE.-The Iber-
vile South says that while there
are thousands upon thousands
Of acres of land in the coun-
try, which were formerly under
culture, and which are to day
lying idle and growing up into
weeds and forests, and a very
large number of good people, who
have no lands of their own, would
be willing to obtain patches of
such uncultivated spots to raise a
crop to live upon and subsist their
families, that the land owners are
demanding such heavy rents that
no poor man can afford to
pay them; lands now perfectly
useless and which give no revenue
whatever, priced at four, five and
even as high as ten dollars yearly
rent per acre. These very same
lands, if sold, wedld not bring
four dollars an acre. How then
can the rent fcT one year be placed
higher than the actual value of
the land!-TN. 0. Picayune.
Let them come to Bossier, lands
are cheap here.
