Gray argued the Neal appeal before the
Supreme Court, the first without fee or
reward Of apv Eud. the latter with a
$500 tee from the State Legislature in
his pockets. Mr.. Higgins gained the
case. To say that Mr.. Higgins is to be
denounced for taking the case before
the Supreme Court is to say that the
Supreme Court itself should be de
nounced, for that Court saw merit
enough in the appeal to remand the
case for a new trial. How that new
trial resulted is well known, and Mr.,
Higgins in his own defence does 7 OF
stop short of an able defence Of the
jury that cleared Neal He holds up t ,
merciless scorn the charge that he
packed the jury, and his able defence
sets before the public the whole affair
in its true light Mr.. Higgins is ac-
cused of putting all Republicans upon
the jury and challenging all Democrats.
Though he did not make politics test
of qualification in the nature of thing
what else could he have done? MIR.
Bayard aud other Democratic speakers
in the late campaign had by their incen-
diary harangues to the Democrats in
famed their minds to such pitch that
every Democrat Of ordinary I'M diligence
in New Castle county had formed and
expressed an opinion in the case which
disqualified themselves to such an ex-
tent that to have served upon the jury
would have been perjury. Hence the
large number of Democrats who hon
estly told under oath that they had
formed and expressed an opinion and re-
tired. Under these circumstances where
was Mr.. Higgins to get his jury Of nm.
biased men? Certainly not from
amongst Democrats. We need not go
further in defence of Mr.. Higgins. He
SpthhS LOT UlluScll eiStWutTt III our
columns. We would not even have re-
ferred to the case at all, were it not evil
dent that under the lead of the Demo
cratic managers, the Neal case is to be
made the key note Of the approaching
State campaign, aud if possible the
feelings of the people are to be wrought
upon to such an extent by misrepre
sentations by political speakers and
unprincipled editors, that the Demo
cracy shall still be kept in power. 1t
will be the part of Republicans and
men all over the State,
not to be moved nor influenced by these
misrepresentation, but in the light OF
truth to stand upon principle. II this
is done the rawlings aud vituperatious
of Democratic renegade editors, and
the mi Representations of Democratic
speakers may be totally dis
regarded, and the Republican party
can march steadily onward to sure sue
cess.
by reference TO Sheriff Ctark's sub
oined letter it will be seen that the
Sheriff fully eXonerates Mr.. Higgins
rom the charge Of packing a jury.

Hon. a J. Butler, Commissioner of
Agriculture for South Carolina, writes as
follows to the Atlanta Constitution:
GENTLEMEN: In reply to yours of March
Goth will say that the returns from our cor.
respondents covering portion of the
reformation you seek, are lust now coming
10 aud have delayed answering your in.
quiry until auiiicicnt number had been
received to enable INC to give something
approaching correct opinion. j!
We have received partial reports. from
twenty two Of the thirty-three counties of
the State They indicate an increased
acreage in wheat Of 25 per cent. and in
oats of fifty per ccut This would make
the actual acreage in wheat SO ,26S, and oats
342.042. This would yield, if an average
crop is realized, l,l40,04l bushels Of
wheat and 3705,S ,S9l bushels of oats.
we have 10 estimates yet as to corn, but
from observation think tho acroage will
probably not exceed 1881, and may posi-
bly, be less The increased acreage ia grain
would doubtless have decreased tho acreage
in cotton but for the operations of tho stock
law as this will bring into cultivation largo
area of oli fields, hedge rows and land that
would not have been cultivated if it had
been necessary to fence it, think it prob
| able that the "caeage in cotton will fuly
equal that of last year.
The correspondents Of this department
estimate that 20 per cent. less fertilizers
will be used this season than last. Tho
records of our office show, however, that
privilege tax tags have hcen purchased for
SS,59S tons, against l04, 1881 tons for tho
same period last ,car-showng difference
of only lG,2S7 tons; but | am informed
that large quantities Of fertilizers arc
stored at the various depots throughout tho
State, upon which the tax has been paid
that has not been Sold This would seem
to verify the estimates of our correspon-
dents.
The returns to this department. Indicate
that phosphates are being more largely used
than ammoniated fertilizers. AS the
phosphn'es are used chiefly fer composing
with lot manure or cotton seed, it shows
that tho farmers are practicing moro
economy 10 this particular. If the cor.
respondentsare correct as to the percentage
of decrease Of fertilizers, it will be saving
ot..ovcr $4,000 in the ono item of expense.
The grain crop 10 all tho counties is re-
ported 10 fine condition.
am very truly yours,
A. p. BUTLER,
Commissioner Of Agriculture.
