THE POsteffice department has re-
ceived the report Of the special agent
detailed to make an investigation in re-
gard to the shooting of Fred Nix, Jr.,
postmaster at Blackville, S. C. The re-
port condemns not only the assailant
party, but the community .at large, for
not having protected the postmaster,
and attributing the attack upon Nix to
animOsity arising from hisZpOlitics and
his color. The department has not as
yet taken any action upon the report,
but the matter will be referred to the
Attorney General to ascertain whether
anything can legally be done for the
pOsimaster's protection from farther in
jury.

The entry and purchase of public
lands for settlements is now greater
than for years. The Land Office has just
made out statement for the fiscal year
ending July 1, from which it appears
that 8,650,OOO acres were taken up that
year. So far during this fiscal year
there is still larger increase. In 1877
the number of acres taken was 8, 100000;
in 1873, 100000. The amount taken
up the first three months of the present
fiscal year indicate that the total for the
year of nearly 100000 of acres. This
indicates Enthusiastically the rush of en-
pire westwardly. Texas is not included
i'm this statement, as all public lands
there belong to the state.

WHILE it is true that there is an i'm
provement in business, generally,
throughout the country, it must be I'M
derstoOd that the boom is in the direc-
ton of legitimate operations in trade,
and not i'm the direction of stock, grain,
or real estate gambling. Men and firms
who are now making money are paying
off notes, lifting mortgages and getting
on firm footing for safe business in
the future. There does not seem to be
much extravaganza INDUCED in by OPP
orators in legitimate lines of bust
ness. Those who spend rapidly and
recklessly are those who have blundered
into fOrtunes-nOt those who have made
them.

1T is stated that complaints from con-
tractors on government work are con-
tinually received at Washington. 1t is
alleged that owing to the advance in the
price of labor andsmaterial they are
making no money. Many contracts have
been abandoned, but the government
loses Observation-Disclosures
The contractors entered On obligations
when labor and material were at a low
figure, and made their calculations ac-
cOrdingly. Now that the prices of both
labor and material have advanced, they
say they cannot execute their contracts
without material loss to themselves. This
is particularly the case with the men
who undertook to work under the river
and harbor appropriation bill. ALI this
work, amounting to about 100000,
was let before the business boom began.

RAsPBERRIEs. We see, in an ex-
change that fruit cultivator, in
Mississippi, recommends the black
cap family of raspberries as the best
of all the varieties for that section
AS that State is in precisely the same
latitude as Georgia, that variety
would be the best for our State. -
There are several varieties of this
fruit, but we are familiar with onlJ
two kinds. the black and white, -
Both flourish remarkably we'll in our
section, and both are excellent as to
taste, size and quality. This fruit
is so easily propagated and SO abun"
dant in the yield, that it is astonlsh-
ing that it is not found on every
farm. 1t certainly more easily pro"
duced than the strawberry, and
many prefer it to the latter. But it
is easy to have both. The straw :
berry is the earliest and cannot be
dispensed with, but both are luxur~
les that every family should enjoy.
Occupying a new place, upon which
there was no fruit at ell, we obtain
ed half dozen raspberry vines from
which we increased the number SO
greatly, that third year, We gather.
ed daily from four to eight quarts
from the vines, and next year, at
least ten quarts every day Mil

a cor egpondent 1t he Mi'ledge>
vile Recorder says: Adopting the
suggestion Of Western farmer of
three years ego, determined to
save the expense e shoes for my
mule, if the facts were as alleged and
the expense unnecessary. During
the winter, while work was very
ligh, and the roads generally moist,
/ had the shoes tax, d off The first
effects were the b, DTS Clipped I'll
below the nail holes OF the black
smith rnsking, but in thee monthe
the mule had different hoof from
what he had bad, and no amount OF
hard work has, as YET, been able to
ipiure it. He has been without
shoes now for three years. and BET
ter set Of hoofs is DOT to be seen on a
mule.
NV conclusion is that farmers
need not incur tie expense of shoe,
ing farm mules or horses, as a gener-
al rule. There may be exceptions
of course, bat 10 ninety FIVE cases
out Of hundred, there will be no me-
,cessity for shoeing mules. On paved
streets, which are artificial roads, it
is necessary to supply artificial
foundations, to keep stock from slip
ping, but this necessity really does
not exist on our roads, or in our
fields. Winter is good period to
harden off the hoof. Shooting is an
expensive item to farmers and many
others, and if it is an unnecessary
expense it is we'll to know it. 1t
certainly is 10 the majority of cases.
The experience of many practical
farmers at the north, accords with
my own experience. Pleasure
horses, especially, should be Injured
to shoeless feet, as it makes them
more sure,footed after they become
used to it. Work horses or mules,
on level roads and streets, have no
more use for shoes than six year
old urchin in July. Those who feel
the tax of habitual ShoeiDg should
try it.
