The bankrupt law has been amended
by recent act ofCongress in some par
ticulars which are worthy of notice.
Provision IS now made that the Circuit
Judge, in case of the sickness, absence
or other disability of the District Judge,
may make all necessary rules and or

causes in bankruptcy. The law now
provides also that the provisions of that
section known as the fifty per cent.
clause shall not apply to those debts,
from which the bankrupt seeks dis
charge, which were contracted prior to
the LIST Of January, 1869. In other
words, debtor, whose assets do not pay
fifty cents on the dollar, must now OBJ

and value of those creditors only whose
debts were contracted since the list of

We shall not dilate upon the necessity of
Republican success this Fall to the estnb-
lsEment of Republican policy, nor upon the
necessity of cons tant and active effort to
achieve that success, for we can say no more
upon these points than every intelligent man
can anticipate. But we may say something
of the facilities afforded by a large, we'll es-
tablshed and enterprising daily journal at the
Capital of the State, and in the center of
business, to disseminate important facts and
elective arguments among the people. Other
documents have their uses, aud say moth
ing against them, but sensible man needs
to be told that formal document or for mida-

articles of well conducted daily paper,

topic from dozen points of view in as many
DAYS, and has dozen chances to hit read

which fires once, like fifty FOUNDER, and
sees the battle over before it can be loaded
again. Current events suggest arguments,
ard political facts come fresh, in daily papers
and they thus assume very much of that di-
rectness of appeal which one in
speaking face to face with another. Besides,
there is no comparison in the amount of mat
ter-telling, pertinent, and well considered
matter-which gets TO a reader through these
two channels. Whatever a campaign dncu-
ment or speech can possibly say, the paper
will be sure to say, and to say ten times

"Stock Raising" signed JONES'" referring in
glowing terms to Mr.. Perce's herd of Short Horns,
IN Clarendon. Now we have no controversy
whatever with MIR. Pierce.
But believing some Of the statements made IN

is this:
If Jones will prove the statements we make be-
low incorrect will give him 500. Now for the
statement:
LIST. Cavalier was calved October 20, 1866, max
ing him three years and nine monthssold, July 20,
1870.
I'd. Duke Clarendon was dropped in February,
1870.
Sd. His cows have not averaged fifty pounds of
milk for a single day this season.
4th. Red Rose is not the mother of Cavalier.
9Th. That you never saw the mother of Cavalier
on Mr.. Pierces farm.
The money will be placed in the hands of MI

days, provided you prove, through the IndepeHd-
ent or HERALD, the above statements incorrect
