cided by the Speaker or by the House, but

not able to build one hundred yards of
stone fence each year. Toplain facts: The
cost Of my repairs with the new fence neces-
saEy to be made this year alone, is many
fold greater than the valuation Of all man
ner of stock that run upon the common
within ranging distance of me. Again,
every farmer Is able to fence his own stock
in, but is not able to fence his neighbours
out.
In giving you my own case, yon will not
think it an isolated one. My neighbors are
all, if not very great majority Of the farm
e-s of the country, labOring under the same
difficulties.
/ hope that you will continue to agitate
the subject and necessity of a stock law
with the same clear and able expose, with
which you have commenced the good work,
until the people are awakened to their most
important interest, and will demand Of
their Representatives to do something in

EDUCATIONAL.

Decatur County Takes the Lead.
To the Editors of the Union and American:
Permit word through your columns in
justice to the energetic and Wide-awake
citizens of the county Of Decatur, one of
the smallest counties in the State. She lost
as heavily by the unfortunate war, in pro-
portion to her wealth, as any other county
in the State. When the war ceased, there
was not bridge across any of the many
fine streams of water that interspeEsed her
borders. Her roads were all out of repair,
county buildings all gone to rack, her
schools all broken up and disorganized, and
her iron manufactures burned and de-
stroysd, indeed, every evidence of the raw
ages Of war upon her brow. [ am now
proud to announce to her neighbOr coun-
ties, and the public generally, that notwith-
standing the fact that her courthouse has
been burned since the war, together with
all her county records, and her jail broken,
and her taxable property, real and personal
of every kind, reduced to the pitiful sum of
$3.50, 620, she has, through her worthy and
enterprising citizens, bridged all her water
courses, improved her public roads, built
her good courthouse at the cost of $4,000,
repaired her jail has just received & fine
iron cage at the cost of $1,000,
rebuilt one or more schooIhouses in
each civil district In the county and several
good churches; organized Sabbath-schools
that are working finely; purchased a good
and co afortable parsonage or home for
their travelling preacher. The people are
all Of one mind; working together harmoni-
Ously; each to be of service to the other.
Perhaps best of all, on Saturday, the I'd
inst, she voted, by large majority, in IA
vor of levying and collecting twenty cents
on the hundred dollars worth of her taxa
bic property for free school purposes. If
that doesn't supply her demands / have no
doubt her ambitious citizens would vote to
double the tax before it should be longer
said of the proud and chivalrOus old Ten
nessee that her people are second in point
Of ignorance Of all the States of this Union.
So all honor to the energy, enterprise and
intelligence of the little but noble county
of Decatur. We call upon her large and
weather. sister counties to go and do like
wise.
Too much cannot be said upon this sub
ject Of education, but as our Legislature Is
| convened, and the Governor has seen proper
IN his wisdom, to make this subject part
OF the speciality of their labors, we will wait
and see what they will have the nerve to
do in the matter. The member who votes
against advance in the cause of education
had better never again ask the people for
their suffrage. W.

FENCE Or NO FENCE; THAT'S THE
QTESTION.

To the Editors of the Union and American.
have just been reading an article in
your issue of the 10Th inst, on a subject
that ought to interest every farmer in Ten
nessee. 'No Fence" is the author of the
article referred to. have felt much inter-
est in the subject for a number of years
past,and have discussed it pretty extensive
ly in my own mind, and have read with
great interest every article you have writ
ten, and endorse every word you have said
on the subject since your connection with
that staunch journal, and able advocate of
the people, the UNION AND AMERICAN. l
have been hoping for the last five years that
each succeeding Legislature would take up
the matter and have some action upon it,
but as yet it has scarcely received passing
notice. II does seem to me that if there is
not something done In the premises before
many years to protect the farmers from the
ravages of stock that run about the COM
mon, that many of them, very many, will
be compelled to abandon their farms and
look out some other occupation. ''No
Fence" in speaking of those "forty head of
knOtty sheep" and lone little wiry bull"
brings to mind many instances of like Oc-
currence, and almost daily observation, and
brings me to reflect upon my own situation.
My farm is a part of large tract, and
when it was cut of, it being run out where
there was no dividing fence, and owing
to the scarcity Of rail limb 7,
10 say nothing Of the scarcity
of money and labor, it was agreed that We
cultivate under the same fence making out
side fences as secure as possible, and would
not pasture where we had cultivated until
each one had secured his crop. But this
year my neighbOr has concluded, about the
eleventh hour, not TO cultivate his but pas
tuTe all the time his farm, and the result
is that horses, mules, cattle and hogs have
been running on my wheat all the winter.
To separate our farms will take a string of
fence full one and half miles long, and no
timber suitable for that fence. COnse-
quently / am compelled to use blackberry,
lynn. and every other stick that can be CON
verted into rails to fence my farm in, the
other parties refusing to assist in making a
line fence, as they did not intend to cult
vate their land, but to pasture. Every one
who has any knowledge of timber knows
that such material as named above will not
last in a fence five years. But the half is
not told. All the other fences around the
farm need new rails for repairs, and to
bring them sup to the mark, " win take all
of the rail timber on the place, good and
bad. How are the fences to be kept up
hereafter? Some might say by building so
much rock fence each year; but every man
of any observation knows that where you
can find one farmer who is able TO build
five hundred yards Of rock fence
annually, you can find, wss about to say,
and it may be right, five hundred who are
