SOUTHERN Field SPORTS.
From the Southern Sportsman.

am glad to see your imper devoting d
part Of Its space 10 game protection. Ii
you will allow me. would suggest that
through your columns you advocate that
law be passed IN our Southern'States pro-
hibiting the export Of game killed ii, the
State out of the llnlts, and also forhidding
= nonresident Of d State to kill game In
It's dominion. Virginia had law, allow.
ing only her citizens TO kill certain game,
few years ago, and presume she has 1t
yet. II has become necessary that all the
Southern States should pass law not
allowing those who are non-residents 10
hunt, shoot or fish; for sportsineii from
the North have been In the habit recently
Of coming to our country, killing game,
and then shipping II back TO the North.
These men are really no better than 80
many market hunters, and the injury
they do to our game Is only less than that
done by the uegroes. This evil has not
yet reachei the Gulf States but II has
been very bad the last few years In the
Atlantic States, especially In North Caro-
lima, where, not content with killing
game, for Northern Markets, they expor-
ted hundreds, yes thousands Of lipc part
ridges. Pm glad 10 say that this has been
plt a stop to, by the. law OF North Caro-
lima. In several Of our Suites a aslmilar
law has been passed but we want ii I'm
every one ofour Southern States.

ease might be. and want You to call q.
such store and pay for it. He received
from such Of his patients as were able and

Of the poor free negro. from whom he knew

would TO the wealthiest person in the land
When attending on Slaves who we're not
furnished with sufficient bedding, or other
necessary articles. he purchased What was
needed for their comfort. and had il charg-

negroes and poor white persons, he suppl
ed them at his own cost.

1t is one of the seyerest tests of friendship
to leila man his faults. If you arc angry
with man, it is not hard TO go to him and
stab him with words and looks, singing him
to madness, or disgracing him in the pros
ence Of his foes. But so to love man that
you cannot bear to see the stain of sin upon
him, and to 60 to him alone, and speak pain
full truths in touching, tender words-that is
friendship, and friendship as rare as it is
precious. Few, indeed, have such friends.
