veil qualified for the position, aud IN the sc>
lection OF Mr.. H., the Regents, as IL ailHLcir
actions, since the establishment. of the ln-
,ttution, deserve the warmest commentator
as goOd aud Juithtak sercunts. In all such
Boards, however, more responsible duties are
necessarily imposed upon meOt the members,
than on Others, and such is the case as re.

Mr.. Fisher, We Gun also say of tho other

viOus understanding between the Bench aud

The FIRST was the State Case of Owen Van
vacter, who having served gu. his term Of i'm.
prisoument in the county jsil, wasre.arrested
under capius pro far, and held in durcss,
for tho costs Of his trial. lie was brought
before Judge HALL on Monday evening, by
ritof haLeas corpus. BeltzhOOver for State,
A. E. Kennedy and Travcrs for prisoner.-
After brief argument the cnpius wasquashed
for errors of form. and heprisoncr discharged.
The rest Of the Session was given to the
Campbell case, from the Chancery Docket,
and arguments were made by Blackburn,
Green and Travers Mr.. Faulkner had al.
ready argued the case. Court cOuvcnes again
to-day and with the internissiou Of the holI,

The American Farmsr.-We refer our
readers to the advertisement of Mossrs. Saml,
Sands & Son, Of Baltimore, Nd, who have
resumed tho publication of this pioneer of ag.
rieultural journalism in the United States
Mr.. Jno. S. Skinner founded this work in
1919, aud when he gave it up, its exiAtence
was temporarily suspended until resuscitated
by Mr.. Sands, the Senior Of the present firm,
who conducted it for twenty-five years, and
raised it to cminence aud high degree of
prosperity. SomO years ago ho disposed Of
the Farmer, and afterwards commenced tho
publication Of the Rural Re9iIter. Both
papers are now combined aud the old Editor,
assisted by his Son, who was specially edu.
Gated for this profession, again takes the HELM.
OF tho services of Mr.. Sands 10 behalf Of
agriculture, David Dickson, Esq, OF Hau>
cock Co., ca, one of the most eminent and
successful ugriculturalists Of the South, some
years ago said: "ltisa great pity that every
plauter in Georgia did not take your paper,
for you have saved the wheat growers 10 the
United States millions OF dollars 10 the last
fifteen years, aud the consumers of guanO
owe but little Less )" aud on another occasion
the same distinguished gentlemen, speaking
of tho Rural Register, remarked: "lf tho
Georgia planters understood their interests
they would double the price Of your paper aud
bavo it come ouce week and take thirty or
forty thousand copies" The long experience
Of the Senior in the management of an ug.
ricultupl paper, with the fresh aid he will
receive FROM his Junior, will no doubt render
their paper popular with those for whom they
labor, aud again give it 4 foremost place among
its compeers Of the duy, We wish all sues
cess to this veteran of Agricultural Literature,
aud commend it 10 our farming lrieuds.
