ing book from library which he was in
the habit of visiting Tor the purpose Of con-
sulting authorities. IL was in evidence that
the book was in the alcoVe where he
had been sitting, that it was found in the
store of dealer, and that this man had
disposed of it there. The fermer irreproach-
able character of the defendant was tes-
titled TO by many members Of the bar, and
by Alchbishc p Manning. There was sub.
stantislly no defense, but the jury In brin,.
ing in verdic5 of guilty, recommended the
prisoner to the mercy of the court. At this
point he rose and calmly stated that he had
stolen the book and sold it to procure
money TO satisfy the cravings of hum
ger. 1t was his first offense.
Hetook the poorest book within his reach,
leaving many better ones of which be was
the author. For forty years he had been
barrister-st-law of the Inner Temple, and a
writer of law books, but he never succeeded
in making money. He had been living for
many months on bread and tea, never hav.
inc any dinner. or late he had sold his
clothes to obtain means to supply his COM
mon needs. He could not beg, neither
could he bring himself to borrow money,
not knowing how he could repay it. He
requested the judge to disregard the jury's
recommendation to mercy, since his char
acter was forfeited, and he could neither go
into society or prac ice bis profession. The
judge tten sentenced him TO six months
Imprisonment at hard labor, all the court
DOM showing great sympathy with the IN
happy man
Farmers sons now old enough 10 study
law or medicine are likely to see the United
States contain one hundred and sixty mil
lion people; and to own small farm with
so many mouths to feed, and backs to
clothe, will be an indep sndent fortune, with
few temptations. Stick to the plow handles.

AGRICULTURAL CO-OPERATIVE
ASSOCIATION.

As suggestion for cooperative sssocia
lions in the West We may mention an agri-
cultural cooperative association of several
hundred English farmers, which purchases
and keeps in stock artificial food for cattle,
manures and general supplies usually for
its stockholders or members. The goods
are purchased aud shipped to various stores
In bulk, having been previously examined
or analysed by chemist, and from thence
are distributed at the lowest cost for trans
portation to the farms Of The members. The
profits are ascertained annually and divided
among the stockholders, or go to Increase
the working capital, and consequently the
value of the stock. The association, which
has been in operation three or Jour years
only, has q capital of $4,000 and does a
business Of $4,000 each month purely net.
Exchange
Every other branch Of productive indus
try profits more By The co operative princi-
pie than our Southern agriculture. We
hope when the farmers Of Tennessee meet
in Sep ember in this city, in Stale con-
venLion, many will come prepared to act
unders.andlngly in the matter of judic!ous
ass cia.ion of means and brains to attain
common benefit. Certainly far
mers &re not less honest than the
men who build railways and fac
tories by a combination CT capital.
Southern owners and cuItiVatoTs of the soil
should 10! remain forever in the alphabet
Of the art of making money by tillage and
husbsnGry, and of keeping it after it is
fairly and honestly made. 1t is one thing
to produce capital in agriculture, and an
other thing to know how to ep it from
the grasp of shsvers or spectators. Farm
ers sht uld teach, and help one another
with perfect integrity of character. This
is supremacy selfish world, and mans
eel6shness tends not to increase the gen.
era fri / fulness of land, but the reverse.
The Intelligent sovereigns Of a State should
steadily accumulate capital in its sell, where
the Rres Of civil war can not consume it.
Money iu buildings may be burnt and lost;
In farm stock death may destroy it; but in
an inc ease of fertility it is in a savings
bank where tie plow can check it out when
realiy needed. A good deal Of our floating
capital floats like drift wood down stream
into the distant OCEAN. We save neither
cash, nCr the primitive fruitfulness of our
land. Our depleted farms need great deal
of manure.

To the Union and American:
NEAR THokPsoN's STATION, TENN,
July 81, 1873.-This portion of our State
has been Unusually blessed with quietness
of late, with the exception of the hum OF
the thresher. The health of the people,
which was rather poor a short time back,
is now remarkably good, and the Doctors
are taking q resting spell. s ~
HARVESTING
is about over, yet none of the granaries are
over full with wheat. In fact, there has not
been one-half of an average crop. have
inquired of parties who were doing the
threshing for this and other neighborhOods,
and the general conclusion of all is that the
crop will hardly average five bushels to the
acre, while ten bushels is only an average
one. There will likely be but little of the
grain to ship ont of the county.
THE CORN CROPS,
in some few localities where there has been
plenty.of rain, Hook tolerably we'll, and as
general thing an average crop is not ex-
peeted. With a good general rain, the
yield may turn out better than is expected.
So mote it he.
- THE COTTON .a.
is about in the same condition as the corn,
and without a favorable season from this
time, it is also apt to fall short.
THOMPSON COLLEGE,
situated in the immediate neighborhood of
Thompson's Station, will soon be thorough
ly renovated, enlarged and reftted with all
necessary school fixtures. In the future it
is to be in charge of Prof. P. w. Dodson, a
gentleman of fine literary attainments.
The Board of Directors intend to make
this school second to none in the country.
SULPHUR WATER.
While parties were boring for water on
the premises of Mrs. E. A. Knnard ("Fair-
view,") six miles from Franklin, on the
Carter's Greek pike, few weeks sgo, when
at the depth of one hundred and eighty
feet, they struck stream of white sulphur
water. Parties who have tried this water
pronounce it superior to any they had pre-
viously tasted.
CAMP MEETING.
The annual camp meeting will commence
at Folks camp ground, five miles from
Thompson's station, on the fourth Sunday
in August next, under charge of the Rev.
A. W. Burr, OF the Methodist church. Ex-
tensivepreparatious are baing made to have
a grand old camp meeting. Already the
lambs, shoats, etc., are being nut in as fine
condition as possible for the occasion, while
the "fatted calf will also be there. Ample
arrangement will be made to accommodate
all who may attend. Some of the most dis
tinguished ministers Of the church will as
sist during the meeting. TYPO.

FARM AND GARDEN.

CULTIVATION OF FISK IN PONDS.
Much attention is low being paid in Ger
many to the cultivation Of fish in ponds
and bitches, and it has bten found, contra
~ to the generally received opinion in ref
erance to such localities, that they are mere
favorable for the purpose than other large
bodies of water, apparently fresh and pure
in their character. This is doubtless ow-
ing 70 the great abundance ofanirnal life, as
well as to the more decided concentration
Of vegetable substances in the form Of living
plants of differ INT kinds, including The a.. a.
This produces the constant evolution OF
oxygen needed for the respiration Of the
fish, and allows larger mass of lifs to be
crowded together in q given space. The
reproduction Of the species is also unusually
rapid, and the young grow very quickly.
Possibly we may see in the future improV-
ed breeds of fish, like Berkshire pigs, short
horns, I'd fast horse. TIE fecundi.y CT
fish is wonderful; and if one can raise them
in great numbers in ponds they may be-
come cheap for fertilizing purposes. Farm
ers are just beginning to learn the value of
vegetable and animal life and acres Of
sunshine whether in land or water.
