Srork SALE n LnUnlCN EnuHTT.-A
letter from Hamilton, Louioun Co.. |" the
Richmond Dispatch, says
Quite novel method of disposing OF stock
&C., Is in progress in this thriving little village
to-day (29th ult) The sale is made under dl-
rection ofthe Farmers Club, it; officers con
Quoting all the preliminaries, and employing
an auctioncer to make the sales The plan IS
for all who wish to sell stock Or farming lm
plements of any kind to enter them previous
to the sale books for which purpose are open
ed here q week or two in advance. The sale Is
omen to all whether members Of the club or
not, the only charge being p cts. for gate fee:
AMONGST other articles which are here to-day
notice enumerated on handbill, FIFTY head
of horses. fat cattle, sheep. oxen. mllrh COWS,
shoats, lambs, &c. This Is the tlrSt sale which
the club has undertaken; aud il parties who
bring stock here to dispose of intend bona llde
to sell them and not have them BID in, have
no doubt these sales will soon become very pop,
ular. They work well in Ohio and other Of
the western States. y great many cattle are
annually bought and sold here most y on PR
vate sale and the prices obtained at these
monthly auction sales will Indicate to Il Ger.
taiuty the value OF such stock. 1t is expected
that they will be largely attended by drorcrs
and butchers from Georgetown, AleXandna
Washington, and probably FROM Baltimore.
All of these markets draw Il portion OF their
supplies from our and adjacent counties, and
the prices at which they are willing to buy
will he a guide for those who enter their stock
for sale here On the ground to-day observe
several of these buyers.

New Orleans Republican. [volume] (New Orleans, La) 1867-1878, 1871-08-11
We copy the following from the Laforohe

Times:
Perhaps there is no parish in the State
that has less trouble with laborers than the
parish of LafourcEe. With the exception
of avery few Cinnamon, and our excellent
Creoles, some of whom are among the
oldest and most honorable families in the
State, we have nearly all colored laborers,
and we venture to say that a better dis
posed or more industrious set of men can
not be found in any other parish in the
State. There is good feeling established
between the laborer and the planter, and it.
is very seldom that any trouble occurs.
One of the many causes conducive to this
good feeling is the fact that nearly all of the
laborers have an opportunity of sending
their children to free public school. 1t
renders the laborer far more contented to
know that his children are fitting them
selves for the advanced positions OF life.
