Congress having just amended the Bankrupt
law so that nearly al parties can be discharged
from their debts unobstructcd by the 1lily per
cent clause, sn-cnllcd, another opportunity orr;
to secure the benefits of this most effective and
permanent measure of relief. The abovc-namcd
will make bankrupt business specially; will
procure discharges on the most moderate terms,
and transact all business in TINT line at prices
which cannot fail to be satisfactory. Being mi
ted States Commissioner he will cndcavor t" visit
the different counties on court days, and thus
savo parties the trouble and expense of several
trips to Alexandria in beginning and proceeding
with their cases. Discharges can, be obtained
here before Register Hill rs promptly rs in Rich
mond or elsewhere, and at much loss expense to
parties. 1t may be added that tho Bankrupt act,
in connection with tho Homestead exemption,
which it is now believed will be secured to the
bankrupt under tho bankrupt law, is the on ~ real
relief now offered to parties struggling in the
hopeless bondage of old debts. Address person

By invitation of Mr. F. c. Williams, Of the
county of Nottoway, u number of gentlemen AS
scmbed ut his residence, Saturday, December
TO- to test, by practical experiment the compare
tive value OF the Dixie Plow, manufactured by
Starkr Il Co., and any other that might enter
the field of competition.
The blows were taken to the field ut hali-last
two q clock u. m., the following gentlemen act
ing as Judges J.. W. Epcs, ). s. Williams,
Robert Scott jas; S. Gillian Wmi T. Christian
Walton Syinor, f. c. Williams, G. n. Scayand
j. NJ HUT Mr. 81 Graves and Walton Sydnor
were the principal plowmcn, Mr. w. Hyuhor
working the Watt pillow and ). Graves the Dixie
both of whom handled them with mastery
skill and success.
The blows entered were the Dixie two-h"rsc
right and left hand plows, and the Watt two
horse left hand. Soon after the trial conlnrhcr'l'
the beam of the Dixie right hand broke Ill two
and WIS laid aside, the contest beng narrow"
to the Watt left hand and DIXic lclt n;lilu. nc
soil first selected was stubblc lonm without SOIL;
but rs tho plows were new and did not turn in
consequence of the roughnrSs OF the G;!stnGS' Al
ter n short trial it WAS decided to take them I"
! another field where tho soil WAS well trnddcn
tenacious clay, with timothy sod covered with
| vegetation and with straw. The pows here per-
formed their work admirably, cutting and turn
| ing clear without choking.
! As the Dixie WAS Il new conner, as the contest
wuxcd warm, most of the judges took hold of 1t
| to test personally its practical working. W ME
| there is no intention to do injustice u any, rs
| neither party had agent or representative pre-
sent, and both plows did well, yet the trial. with
the award of the judges, is deemed of sllilcIrh
importance to the interest ol agriculture |" j"sI-
fy It's publication.
The award Of the judges was unanimously IN
favor of the Dixie on the following grounds:
lst 1t cut Il deeper Through.
| ID 1t cut wider Through.
| Sd It moro ctfcctually inverted the sod.
| dtI Tho draft seemed to bC greater.
