directly applicable to our section
at this timo than tho following.
Although it was written for a
peculiar section of tho State Of
Maryland, ono would suppose tho
writer had taken his QUO from tho
condition and prospects Of tho
armingintcrcsts Of Western North
Carolina. Why, ho cvon alludcs
to the changes Of customs that
must take place when or Railroad
is finished:
We have never lost sight Of tho
! progress ofagricultural knowledge
and Improvement, and this is ono
Of the elements which exercises an
important influence upon local aB
well as general industry. We have
always regretted the want Of Far
mcrs' Clubs and Agricultural So
cIctlcs in our conntry. Every
year should add to their number
and efficiency. Tho fairs and ex-
hibitions which form somc of their
labors hold out Inducements to
competitors to aim ut higher ex-
ccllcnce, and visits to farms, on
tered for premium, call forth efforts
to arrange every thing in tho best
order, remove unsightly evidence
OF carclcssncss and turn evcry
means OF cultivation to tho bcst
advantage. And this is not all
tho farmer rcaps rich reward in
tho additional value Of his produce,
and real state of prosperity is
induced which might not other
wise have existed.
There is no rivalry in farming
that is not truly honorable, and
any discovery that ono makes
should TO choorfully impaired to
another. Wo know this to be tho
case in England and France, during
our WISH 10 EUROPE having at
tended n meeting at small town,
(Blctchlcy, Bcdforshiro,) whcro

GALLANT CONDUCT OF THE PRESIDENTS
Son FREDERIcK.-At Laurel, Maryland,
yesterday afternoon, while the sons of DIR.
Sharpe, (brother-in-law of Gen. Grant,,
Marshal of the district of Columbia, were
bathing in the Patuxent river, near that
place, in company with their young cou-
sins, Masters Grant and Dent, who were on
a visit to the family of Marshal Sharpe,
quite serious accident happened. Dent
Shape>a very intelligent and promising
young lad of II years of age, was noticed
struggling in the water, and while strug-
Cling he called out that he was drowning.
his father heard his cries, and hastily com
menced to disrobe in order to jump in and
save his son, but ere he could get to the
scene Fred. Grant, who had just come from
West Point, gallantly jumped into the riv-
er, without attempting to pull off his boots,
ana grasped the hair of the unfortunate
boy, who was going down for the third
time. With unusual presence ofmind, and
an exertion of the extraordinary physical
strength for which he is famous, Fred. was
enabled to bring young Sharpe in safely to
shore. 1t was most gallant act, and one
for which the young soldier deserves the
utmost praise Washington Star, June 8.

AN AWFUL ADMINISTRATIVE Fort
Atkinson (Wisconsin) Herald has the fol
lowing:
A dreadful report was current in this
village yesterday that a mad dog had bit
ten two children boy of seven years and
girl of four-in the town of Milford, in
this county, and that the parents, whose
names we did not learn, were informed by
the attending physicians that the only pos.
sible way for the children to escape the ag-
onies of the rabies would be to take Their
lives. Incredible as it may seem, they ad.
ministered aa opiate TO the boy and blcd
him to death, and the girl was smothered
in feather bed. There seems to be no
doubt of this, as it is well attested.

A negro was hung. in South Carolina the
other day, and while upon the scatold said
he did not expect to be hung, because, he
said, he expected to be rescued by an or
ganization of negroes to which he belonged
and which was pledged to rescue any of
their number from such perils as he was
in. But for some reason the mob failed
on this occasion TO do its duty. This or

VIRGINIA AND IRELAND.-The Rich
mond Dispatch, Of the 9th ult., contrasts
the present condition of the people of Vir-
ginia with that of the Irish people, and
says: In Ireland the humblest citizen has
the right to be tried in civil court and by
a jury of his peers. In Virginia, Gen eral
Lee may be tried by a military commits
sion, or in a court presided over by a.judge
appointed by a military dictator and by
a jury of ignorant, prejudiced, fanatical ne
grocs. In Ireland, no military officer
would dare to Interfere with civil magis-
trate in the discharge of his duties In
Virginia, a military understrapper-a
mere Observation-Disclosures the civil mag
istrate. But, alas the case is much worse
for this civil magistrate, though of the
only kind that we have, owes his office to
military Governor. In Ireland, the humb-
lest citizen, if imprisoned, can invoke the
protection of the writ of habeas corpus.
In Virginia, the Jail doors open only at the
bidding of a military officer, and the writ
of habeas corpus is as dead as that of K ing
Charles during whose reign it was first
employed for the release of innocent patri-
OTIS and languishing victims of injustice,
oppression and wrong. But why contin-
ne the contrast? We have not one single
one of the rights of freemen left to us. We
enjoy exactly such rights as our conquerors
choose for the time being to allow u.s. We
are treated as if we were criminals, whilst
Ignorant disgusting negroes are petted as
lfthey were superior to white men. Ire
land never suffered this indignity. "-Moat-
