EXEMPTING TILLAGE LAND FROM
TAXES.

The Hon. John Wentworth, of Hi.
nois, and the Chicago Tribune, advo-
cate the exempting of all land in tillage
crops from taxes with a view to favor
this class of farming and planting at
the expense of uncultivated prairie and
timber land, pastures and meadows.
A correspondent Of the Country Gen
Hemdn makes the following among
other objections to such contemplated
discrimination
The best guarantee Of success in ag-
riculture, and in everything else, de-
ponds on keeping the beautiful, rich
soil from spoliatiOn; and there cannot
be prosperous husbandry while the peO-
pie seem to be so insane as to do every
thing in the power of politicians, land
owners and farmers themselves, to
bring down the virgin soil and every
fertile district to the same poverty as
is experienced In the East, where the
whole race of agriculturists are crying
out, farming doesn't pays" and they
cannot grow corn at 6Oc. and wheat at
$50 in competition with the West,
which only gets half that price, nor
can they raise horses or muttCntO COM
pete with Canadians. Yet how extra
ordinary that the whole nation is blind
to the fact that it is growing corn and
grain, and this continuous cultivation,
which causes Eastern farmers to ap-
pear idiots. They are close to good
markets; get double the price for all
the produce they grow, whether corn,
grain, cattle or sheep; have all the con-
veniences of old settled and long civil
lied regions-yet when thus protected
las also by import duties they talk of
exemptifg the cultivated land, or, as
Mr. Wentworth says, exempt that
under actual cultivation" Just as if it
were meritorious to torture and work
to death the whole surface of the Amer
lean continent.
When viii it be understood that the
grazier is the leading agriculturist:
Look at England; Leicestershire is the
grazing country-the one prominent
example showing that good grass land
should never be plowed.
The writer of the above should know
that to obtain. generous income from
land in grass, with very little tIllage,
and at the same time increase the re-
sources of the soil, implies the study
Of agriculture as "a science, which
very few farmers are willing TO do.
Hence, all cultivators labor in the
summer of 1871 as earnestly against
each other in competition as
either they or their forefathers have
done in this or any preceding century.
10 spare arabic land rs an act IF wise
finance and patriotism is an idea hard
ly born on this continent. Sound no.

New York Dry Goods Market.

NEW YORK, July 22-The trade move
ment is slow in most departments with
commission houses, and jobbing sales were
light. Cotton and wool tlannels continued
active. Side band prints are in brisk re-
quest. Manchester prints opened at 1Oc.
Arnolds' prints are in great demand. Cling
hams are in improved request. WOOlen
goods are quiet but steady in price.

THE GAINESVILLE DISTRICT TO.
BACCO CROP.

Returns from l02 farms, in what is
known as the GAINESVILLE tobacco dis
trict, showing that last year there were
s, l35 acres devoted to tobacco on these
farms, while this year only 2l7 have
been planted with the weed, arc pub
lished by the CJarkSUIIc Tobacco Leaf,
which says:
Good soaking rains have fallen in
various localities during the past week
in portions of Christian, Todd, Logan,
Robertson and Montgomery counties.
Tobacco planting, however, has been
very light Plants have been de-
stroyed by the drouth, and farmers are
sowing tobacco land in millet and
Hungarian grass"

COURT ORDER.

Whereas, This Court has ever shown a dispc-
stlon 70 relieve the citizens OF the county, as far
as 10 Is in their power, from the burdensOms
taNation and whereas, they have heretofore re-
commented 10 the citizens, (and still believe il
Is the only policy 10 be adopted TO relieve them
OF oppressive taxatiOn,) and that they should
give to the County Court authority to sell tho
Davidson county stock in railroads whenever
the Court can obtain a reasonable price there
for, the members OF the Court pledging them
selves that no portion OF the funds received for
the sale OF the stock shall be used for anv other
purpose than TO take no the bonds given BY the
county 20 railroads. Therefore
BE It ordered by the Court, That the Judge OF
this Court be, and is hereby directed to notify
the Sheriff TO open and hold an election at the
August election, TO ascertain the wishes Of the
citizens Of the county on this subject and those
fayOring the sale Of the stock TO have on their
tickets ''Sale," and those opposed ono Sale;s
and that the Sheriff be required to make a re-
turn of the votes cast 70 the Clerk of the Court.

LAND WARRANTS.
FINANCIAL.

Our money market is rather close and
money cannot be obtained, generally, ex-
cept on short time and in moderate amounts.
When the banks discount, it is at the rate
Of ten per cent on thirty and sixty days.
Brokers loan at II per cent per annum,
while individual notes are SHAVED" at
from two to tise per cent per month.
Exchange on New York is firm and in
demand. The banks buy at par and sell
at 3 per thousand premium.
Gold is not so strong. closing in New
York at 1893. For the small lots offered
here dealers pay 100, while they hold at
10. Silver is taken at 103 for halves and
quarters.
Tennessee bonds are quoted in New York
as follows:
Old, with coupons On..................T
New, with coupons on.
Olu eA-cOupons. ................. do
New eX-cOupOns. NORTHUMBERLAND.
UlideC series. -.-........ d
1t would appear from the above and from
the quotations for several weeks back, that
the registered bond is preferred TO the
funded bond. Our brokers have. up to
this time, treated the registered and funded
bonds alike, but we suppose, if difference
is made in New IOrS, the same will be
done here.
Our local bonds and stocks are quiet and
we very seldom hear of any sales. David
son and Wilson county bonds usually bring
the quotations, which most of the others
fall several points below. Morris city
bonds, due July l, are still unpaid, and as
the Treasury was exhausted in the dog
speculation, there seems to be but little
prospect of their being paid shortly. a few
Sumner county bonds were offered yester-
day but the best offer was 80, while hold
ers wanted 90 and even 62. We believe
there was a small sale at IS.
For quotations of other stocks and bonds
We refer to those published by the Nashville
Savings Company, corner Union and Col
lege streets.
