RuTrER COWS.

Personal examination and much
inquiry has almost persuaded US that
the Jerseys or Attorneys land we
confess wc could see no difference
between them) are the cattle best
adapted to the South. Cattle so
small as they cannot require heavy
pasturage, and can be easily carried
through our winters without the ne
cessity of tons of good hay being
previously housed for their consump-
ton. A short>horn of usual size is
more than twice as large as an aver
age Jersey, and no doubt would cas-
ily produce twice the amount of
beef. But it is not cattle that we
want particularly. We are much
more in need o! small cattle that can
live and thrive upon our scant pass
. lures, endure our long summers, and
produce as good milk and plenty Of
butter.
We have read of Durham cows
giving seventy pounds of milk per
day for months, but never heard of
one yielding over fifteen pounds of
butter in week. And so Of Dev>
ons, and smaller breeds; we know
they have MIXED up to sixty pounds
per day; but fifteen pounds of but.
ter per week has been their maxi
mum, SO far as we know. We have
seen a statement of an Ayrshire COW
that yielded three thousand five
hundred quarts Of milk in one year,
from which three hundred pounds Of
butter were produced.
But however extravagant all this
may seem, the reports about the
Jerseys surpass them all. We have
been told by more than one Norih>
ern friend, that they had Jersey
cows that gave twenty-five to thir~
ty quarts of milk daily, and produc-
ed weekly fifteen pounds of butter
for months. We have read of Jer>
sey cows producing twenty pounds
of butter in week,
Why do not our Changers unite
and import Jersey bulls all over the
SouthY 1t can easily be done, and
when we reflect upon the improves
ment made in the common st, elk by
such crosses, it is amazing that it is
not done.
How many persons know that if
they eat butter three times day it
will cost more than the bread they
eatf But such is the fact ID.

IS THERE a HOMESTEAD

Col. j. ID. Stewart, of Griffin, .ad>
dressed the citizens Of Pike county
few weeks since ia favor Of con-
vention. He contends that we have
no homestead but cham. Here ID
his remarks
"The Supreme Court by different
decisions, have virtually repealed the
homestead They have decided
that the homestead is mere use ;
that those already taken are subject
to be levied on and sold, that is the
reversionary interest. Those who
have taken homestead are only en-.
titled to it as long as they are the
head Of family, consequently an
old man, when 70 longer able to toll
for his living, is liable to be turned
out of doors, because his children
are no longer minors He clearly
demonstrated the Partially of the
present homestead. A man who has
three thousand dollars worth of prop
erty can cover the whole of it with
a homestead, but fellow who takes
the benefit Of the law to keep two or
three hundred dollars worth of props
erty can never add to it, as he cons
sumes his hundred dollars worth of
corn and meat, his creditors can levy
on his crop and sell it, and he can
not have it included in his home
stead, so if his horse wears out or
dies, he cannot take proceeds of his
labor, and invest in another horse,
and have him protected under the
homestead because he has taken
the homestead once and cannot take
it again or supplement it with other
property" aa Has

if we speak of the telescope as il Is now used

but the telescope in this SENSE was discovered

with both glasses he could see Il quite small

success being rejoiccd, he united several SINH

combination at a high price to wealthy people.
Thereafter they (thc telescopes became gradu-
ally more common among the people and
spread to other countries. lnthiS way two of
them were brought, for the first time, by Bel
gian merchant to Italy. OF these, one remain
ed long in the College at iIomc. The other
went first to Venice, later to Naples; and here
the Italians, and especially Calico, at that
time professor Of mathematics in Padua, took
the opportunity Ofimproving ii to astronomical
purposes ana to extend its use further. Thus

few days ago, Just before the noon recess of the
court Of general sessions at Columbia, Judge
Cook called upon Jim Davis, Geo Mcintyre,
Geo. Bryan and Ned Green, four colorcd oilers

for several days without seeming to have any
other purpose than Willing away the time on
the benches, to come forward and hear what
the court had to say to them. When they came
up the judge asked them what business they
were engaged in, and not rccciving satisfactory
answers he remarked that he had seen them
sitting i'll the courtroom every day since the
session began and had reason to believe they
had no honest means of living but were vag-
