/. FARM AND GARDEN.
down WIN THE FENCES.

Weseongratulate the farmers of Meek
lenburg, North Carolina, upon the pro
gressiVe spirit which has led them to do
away and abolish forever the old fence
law, the most oppressive, as it is at this
day the most absurd, of all the many
burdens laid upon the broad back of ag-
rlculture. Since the Patrons Of Husban-
dry have taught the agricultural mind
TO think, we trust it will not be long be-
fore the farmers discover the manifest
Injustice of law which compels a man,
bktSfe he can enter into the enjoyment of
his property, to enclose his land, at
first cost in many cases equal to its value
IN fee simple, and at an annual cost
thereafter in repairs of ten per cent. on
the original outlay. In the name-of all
that is equitable, Why do not do every
where as the Meck@enburgers do, compel
every man to take care of his own stock.
and thus save him the far heavier task
of defending his crop from his neighbOrs'
stock or the vagrant herds of landless
squatters? Agriculture on the continent
of Europe has long since been freed from
the expensive burdens of such struc-
lures; that OF Great Britain soon will
be, and why not ours? The good people
of Mecklenburg are delighted at what
they call the " No-tence Law" and their
local paper sings paans to it as follows:
The law, went into effect in March,
when the people were busy preparing to
plant the present crop. Nearly all sue
ceeded in getting pastures fenced for the
stock kept on the premises. The law
works admirably. The thought of never
having again to scratch your hands with
briers and thorns. and tangIe your feet
with grapevines while mending your di-
lapidated old fences, is too good 10 en-
terrain one moment without almost
shouting for Joy. While those who work
the old plan of fencing their fields will be
busy in winter IN making rails, hauling
and building them on their crazy fences,
we viii be spending the same for COM
post heaps, clover lots, and fall and win
ter plowing." Our Contemporary might
have added that if the farmers every.
where would adopt this "No-fence Law f"
the frightful destruction of our forests
would cease, our descendants saved from
timber famine, and the agriculture OF
the country relieved from an annual and
unnecessary tax of several hundreds OF
millions of dollars.

The largest influx, it will be seen, was
in 1873 and the smallest in 1871. The
figures relate only to the arrivals direct
from China, and have nothing to do with
those, not a few, who came here from
various South American ports. The

1869 is phenomenal, and we know of no

that Tweed is living somewhere in Can

been received that points conClusively TO
Canada as his present hiding place.
Nevertheless, the superintendent admits
Tweed may still be concealed in this
city. He could remain here very easily,
and none of the persons in pursuit of
him could learn the least thing about
his hiding-place. There were men con-
nected with Tweed who would serve him
to the death and never divulge his hid
ing place or say or do anything to attract
the attention or suspicion of the authori-
ties. If ne were to be taken sick, he
could find plenty of physicians who

LETTER FROM SUMMIT POINT.
SUMMIT POINT, Nav 10. 1876.

Dear Spirt:-Not that 1 have anything
of importance to tell you that you hear from
me this week, but for the simple reason [
don't want you, or your many friends, to for
get us or our pleasant little village.
HNothing new or startling has transpired to
e%nliven US lately, all appears "quiet along the
Potomac tonight"
We've been having several days of damp,
disagreeable weather, but hope it is now over;
vegetation appears to have enjoyed it far more
than sc, if We are allowed to judge from ap-
pearance.
The frui. crop, I think, has disappointed
many-agreeably though, L hope-a great
many think that if we have one frost the fruit
is gone-and kmo,o it to be a fact l have
very little doubt that we'll have an abundance
of every variety.
The farmers are through planting corn, and
are resting a little low.
Mr.. Grim, who lives near Summit Point,
had seventeen sheep killed and wounded last
week.
I will now close my letter, hoping that the
next time you hear from me to have some-
thing more interesting to communicate, in tho
way of Picnics, May parties, go.
Yours truly, NJ

Middleway District.

M1DDLEwA1, May 20, 1876.
Pursuant to a call from the Executive Com
mittee, the voters of Middleway District held
their meeting at the Free School House.
PETER S. HINTON was called to the Chair,
and JNo. G. SHIRLEY elected Secretary.
Thu object of the meeting was then ex-
planned, and after some discussion us to the
mode of appointing, it was agreed that a com.
mittee of three should suggest the names of
two suitable men as delegates to the State
Convention, and two alternates. After retir-
ing the committee reported the names of John
w. Grantham and Isaac Strider as delegates,
and David Fry and Frank Beckwith alter
nates-report received and unanimously
adopted.
The following resolutions we're then pre-
sented and adopted
ResolUed, 1. That the resumption Act of
1875 ought to be Internationally repealed.
2. That wo are opposed to any legislation
requiring q return to specie payment.
3. That the legal tender notes, commonly
called greenbacks, constitute the best cur>
rency we have had since 1866 we are there.
fore opposed to their being withdrawn from.
circulation.
4. That the national bank Act ought to be
IePeaIeu anu the Dank notes retired, and
greenbacks issued in lieu thereof.
5. That the power to issue and coin money
and regulate the value thereof is one OF the
highest attributes of sovereignty, and ought
not to be delegated to any bank or corpora
ton that no banks Of issue ought to be all
lowed, but all money should be issued by the
government, and the volume thereof mado
and kept equal to the wants and demand of
trade and commerce.
g. That we are now brought face to face
with the most gigantic scheme to deprive the
people of their liberty and property ever yet
devised by the enemies of the people. 1t
therefore behooves every friend of liberty and
justice to lay aside minor differences and to
act together for the rescue of liberty, labor
and property from the grasp of aggregate
capital and greedy monopolists.
The meeting then adjourned.
