sideration, it was necessary that persons
claiming under tax titles should be re-
quired to show that the law had been
strictly complied with. If the giving OF
the wrong boundaries was calculated IN
the opinion of the jury to mislead par
ties interested, and lead them to suppose
that the properly advertised was not
theirs, then the plaintiff was entitled TO
a verdict. The jury returned verdict
for the defendant. On motion the plain
tiff was granted ten davs from October
29th, in which to make up and serve a
case and serve notice of new trial. En-
try of judgment was stayed till the deter

Convention of Sea Island Planters.

The Agricultural Society of South
Carolina has issued circular signed by
the Committee of the Association, A. b.
Rose, G. A. Chislom and S. p. Ravenel,
inviting the sea island cotton planters Of
Florida, Georgia and South Carolina to
meet in convention in Charleston on
Monday, the 18th ofDecember, for the
purpose of holding conference pertain
ing to matters touching the vital inter
ests of those engaged in such agricultural
pursuit.
The annual visitation of the destruct-
i've caterpillar, the usurous rate of inter
est which planters have to pay for money
to employ labor of an uncertain charac-
ter, and to buy plantation supplies, and
the manifestly increasing production of
sea island cotton in other countries from
seed of our own selections, and by labor
obtained at nominal cost, have reduc-
ed the value Of our cotton below the cost
of production, and rendered its consump-
ton and sale precarious aud commercial,
" too hazardous. 1t is therefore deem
ed wise course for an intelligent body
of farmers to meet and counsel together,
and suggest such substitutes Of growth
as are most likely to suit our genial soil,
and give reasonable remuneration for
capital and labor employed. Agricultu.
raj societies or clubs, or neighborhood
associations, are respectfully requested
TO appoint delegates to represent them
in this convention, and we hope to hear
OF full representation from this section.
