I "A Remarkable Relic.

A Bucks horn was foand In Christian S
Creek, on the land of Franklin Myers, in Au-
gusta county. Va, by Thos. H. Myers, which
must have been buried there for a century, or
more. 1t has six prongs and measures three
feet eight inches in length, is three and half
inches in diameter at the head. eight and a
halt inches in circumference above the first
prong, six and half inches above the second,
six inches above the third aud is four inches
broad at the base of the fourth prong. The
second prong is % inches long and the third is
Is inches long. The small end is divided into
two prongs. the longest is inches and the 9TH
er is inches, and it averages inches in
breadth from the 4th prong to the last fork.
No such deer has been known in this coun-
try since its early settlement and this horn
must therefore be more than a century, per-
haps two centuries old. sqsg ~
1t is a mammoth horn and must have A.
dorned the head OF tremendous buck. In its
present dry state it weighs pounds Will
some of our oldest hunters please inform us
when such deer could have lived.
Can it be possible that so large horn could
have been the growth of one year? The gen.
eral theory is that buck drops his horns ev-
cry year, and that they grow again new every
year. S. K.

Those contemplating emigratipg to Florida
will be interested in the following extract from
letter of an intelligent correspondent of the
Richmond Dispatch..
II don't think that / would own East Flori-
da if | had to live there. 1t is a pleasant place
in which to spend the winter-a very desirable
place to go to if you are sick, and SO is hos
pital-but one does not care to live in hospit-
al unless he is confirmed invalid. And then
it is no place in which to raise family al
most all the women and children that [ saw
had sicky look, except 10 St. Augustine
1t is grand place. however, for the negro
race; they flourish. the climate suits them,
and if that race is wise, and does not wish the
white pressure now brought to bear on them to
destroy them, since they have been freed, they
will crowd into it. Almost every acre not COW
cred with water can be made to sustain negro
family; the water ITSELF in its products and its
fish, will materially help this support l am
satisfied that if Cuba is ever annoyed the white
race will desert it; the invalids of course will
go to that island, and the money spent in it
annually by 10000 inyalids is the life of

1t has no restriction on residence or travel
All its policies are non-forfeitable and the right

part of the contract.
It has the following feature which no other
penalty of being separated from the Home office
by having their part payment forfeited. 1.-THE
Piedmont guards against this in her policies and
in event of separation from its office by any in
tervention guarantees to such all the right of nom
forfeiture, paid up policy, surrender value and

Its investments are made for benefit of South

II brings money to our people-keeps money
with our people. Then why should they contin-
ue to impoverish themselves by sending money
off which can as easily-as safely-as probably
be spent at home?
The Piedmont asks all who wish to insure to
compare its rates-terms-progress with any
company, and feels confident its merits will equal
any other company.

TIME WONDER OF THE AGE!
THE RAMSDELL NORWAY OATS

II MA NUN w "A OAISi
90 TO 30 BUSHELS TO THE ACRE
In the winter of 1869 bought III bushels of
this oats at costof Sl0per bu>hel in N lew York.
sowed them on fifteen acres of common land
and bad as the season was, made 600 bushels
equal to 524 bushels for one sown. From exper-
iments made in good land, l can safely say that
they will realize from 60 to 80 bushels for one
sown. On account of its branching, one bushel
is enough to sow to the acre; thin land a little
thicker.
One of its peculiar virtues is its stiff straw de-
flying all ordinary storms and weather. The
heads are from IL to Is inches long, and from one
to fifteen hundred may be realized.
Although the seed of this Oats cost me $40 per
bushel, and the same is now selling in the N orth
for $3.50 per bushel, have determined on ac-
count of the hard times to sell mine at SIS per
bushel of 81 pounds; So per half bushel of l6
pounds; ST. Is per peck of pounds, and 81. for
4 pounds For sale by Powell & Blackey, of

'If General Grant comprehends the neceesi-

them. his administration will be success but
if his vision be con6ued to petty local affairs and
party politics, if he cannot understand the mis-
sion and destiny of this mighty country, and
remains the mere instrument Of the narrow
minded politicians that surround him, he will
prove lamentable failure and his glorious war

BEAST BUTLER. The cock-eyed man of des-
tiny, according to the New York Herald. is
digging out the foundations Of his party. His
way of splitting up his own friends is sport to
the Democratic party, but death to the Repub-

frmed by some wise and statesman-like stand.
At the present rate, before he comes to that
point he will either have no leadership or else
no party to lead. - Wilmington Star.

Not Hopeful

The Editor of the Fredericksburg Herald
thinks we are on the broad road to national
ruin. He says, in his issue of the l4th inst. !:
Mankind to-day have more reverence for
Pompey, although unsuccessful la his efforts to
uphold and defend the liberties of his country
and the constitution of his fathers than all the
grandeur and pafapherpalia of the Caesars. The
country, if not the Republic our fathers be-
queathed US, is nevertheless the land of our
birth and the heritage Of cur children and must
needs feel an interest In its future prosperity
But it is our earnest belief that unless there
is change In the next decade, and something
like our original condition restored, that the sun
of the closing day of the nineteenth century will
set upon country torn 10 fragments by the
tumults of contending factions.
A CARPET DAGGER IN TROUBLE The
Washington special of the Charleston Ne,os
says
A witness testified before the House Military
Committee to-day that B E. Whittemore. re-
presen alive in Congress from South Carolina,
had sold his cadetship. A copy of letter from
Whittemore was shown, dated Darlington, s. e.,
May IL, 1869, and addressed to p. H. Kegler,
formerly banker ia Charleston, offering to sell
a cadetship at West Point for FIVE hundred dol
lars 1t is said that evidence will be forthcom-
ing which will implicate some Of the Radical
Congressman from Louisiana in similar cor
rupt proceeding.
