claimed, II move MIR. Perrin-he is

8 AFrEB DISSER TALK.
L For three mortal shours we sat and
talked and talked and sat, whilst the
Jest and repartee went round, and mirth
and goodsfellowship prevailed. A fea-
ture of the;occasion to which Mr.. Law
son calls cur attention was this, that
whilst education, and base ball, and
laborers apd servants were all discussed,
politics was entirely eschewed. 1t was
conspicuous by its absence.
FINE WHEAT.
Mr.. Wilson exhibited to US after dim
ner some remarkably fine specimens OF
white wheat, which was grown upon 4
field of two acres, which yielded fifty
bushels. He made us present of a
sample Of this wheat, which they offer
for sale, and which may be inspected at
our office. They have also bushel and
a peck of seed wheat, raised from patent
office seed, which they hold at SlOD.
The land of the tlat-wooAs is well suited
for the cultivation of wheat.
THE PARKER PLACE.
The "Parker Place. contains some
sixteen hundred acres, onc-half Of
which is in cultivation a part being
rented and cultivated by tenants, and
the remainder by the propretors. The
corn was planted on low-grounds away
from the house, and we didn't see it.
LARGE PLANTATIONS AND THE RESULTS.
Mr.. Wilson Informed us that thous-
ands of acres Of valuable lands in this
section were lying waste for lack of cap
ital and labor to develop them The
land was bought up before the war by
large planters, and the white population
passed away and gave place to negro
quartcs. ASS consequence white neigh
bors are scarce, and it is impossible to
maintain schools and churches. n bet
ter day is certainly in store for that sec
ton. The lands are the finest in the
worll, and only need labor and capital
to develop them.

JEFFERSON DAVIS AND 1LLINoIs'
Rockford, ILL.,, August l4.--The eX-
citemcnt occasionc1 by II. p. kimballs
announcement that Jefferson Davis
would speak at the fair this year has
been growing since Monday, when the
letter of acceptance arrived. The publl-
cation Of the 1rib"nc and other Chicago
papers was the first information that
came officially to Rockford. From that
moment the excitement became greater,
and now assumes all Indignation tiill
will not easily be allaycd unless Mr.
Davis cancels his engagement. The
Grand Army Of the Republic held an
indignation meeting and passed rcsolu-
tions strongly protesting against the ac-
ton of the board of directors in invI-
ting HIr. Davis to speak. The excite
mcnt is confined to Rockford, but eH-
tends to the country.

WHY EX-TREAstRER SPINNER RE

port: when Bristow wanted to see him he
used to send q colored hoy for him IN

secretaries had done; in short, he was

Cn our way to the house we saw a

home which was two hands higher,
We were then all like "tho little boy the
calf run over" The house is surround
ed by large rocks, and some one asked
Afr. Parker if they did not grow, as they
seemed so unwieldy. Friend Tusten
suggested tnat the best way of getting
rid of them was to dig hole and bury
them; but after getting Mr.. Chalmers to
make calculation as to their avoirdu-
pois, concluded that the experiment
would not pay.
