a PARTY OFEN6LISH GENTLEMEN
IMPORTANT STOCK ENTERPRLSE-
TWO SPLENDID FLOODED HORSES
MIR. F. G. Taylor, with whose name
ind whose interest in Mobiles county
our readers are already familiar, arriv-

led by two English gentlemen, who
come to Mobiles county to engage in
stack raising on a large scale. The

their age ever brought to America.
Some accounted the projected enterprise
A1,d Of the gentlemen who propose ell
gaging in it, is due alike to the parties
and to our readers.
THE STOCK ENTERPRISE.
The parties have the means to engage
In stock growing on an extended scale
and they propose raising blooded horses,
cattle and sheep They would have
brought with them some FLOODED cattle
and sheep, but owing to the cattle
plague which has been prevailing in
England, the importation Of horned
cattle into American ports is now pro-
hibited by law. So soon as this embar-
80 is removed, our English friends will
bring on cattle and sheep'of the best
bloods, and .inaugurate the proposed
stock enterprise.
TIE PARTIES.
The two gentlemen who have arriv-
ed, and who are the vanguard of a
larger party of English settlers, are the
Hon. II. F. Sugden, of Stoberry Park,
Wells, Somerset. and A. E. Griselle,
Esq.,. Of Norberry Park, Dorking. Sur
rey.
Mr.. Sugden is a younger son of one
Of the great families of England. His
grandfather was Lord Chancellor, the
highest Office il the gift of the crown,
and Ills oldest brother is the present
Lord st. Leonards, peer of the realm,
and of course occupying seat in the
House of Lords.
Mr.. Griselle is the second son of an
English gentleman and belongs to a
family of great wealth. He is a well
educated young man, has had the best
advantages and has Travelled extensive.
~. They came to Minnesota with prac-
tical ideas and with view to business,
and if they succeed in opening the
stock farm on the proposed scale they
will lie Of 'incalcnlable benefit to the
material interests of this county.

ARRIVAL OF Mr.. TAYLOR.

-. ARRIVAL OF MR.. TAYLOR
We have stated several times recent
ly that Mr.. F: G. Taylor was expected
from England with the vanguard of a
number of English settlers. He arriv-
ed on Thursday night last accompanied
by two English gentlemen, as stated
elsewhere. Mr.. Taylor has spent some
months in England endeavoring to
turn English capital and English set
tiers in this direction. OF course, the
grasshopper affection is known in Eng
land and Mr.. T. had this to contend
with, but as most Of those who wish to
Acome propose growing stock, the grass
hopper objection is not difficult to over
~come. Mr.. Taylor is doing our people
a great service by turning English
capital and introducing English farm
ers to this county.

The average cost totwhich this par

of it, ye tax payers. Five hundred
dollars to convict 4 man for stealing

either. Our legislators must d" some
thing to relieve US of this burden and
at the same time put stop to the

much worse year since, when un-
