THE ATTORNEY GENERAL.
The Leader Of the Most Famous Bar i'm
the Country.

From the Georgia Southern.
Certain Georgia papers occasionally excite
themselves because Mr. Brewster, the Attorney
General. being typical gentleman of the old
school. maintains some OF the quaint and genial
habits of the past. The ATTORNEY General
though hale and vigorous. is not a young man.
He has long been the leader of the most famous
bar in this country. GAS shrewd as n Philadel-
phia lawyer is an adage of much popularity,
and to be the foremost man of this proverbial
class is to be an uncOnlmOnly strong man. The
history of the Philadelphia bar Is one of I'M
dimmed renOwn. In the past such lights of iu-
ridical ability anC eloquence as Rawle Hopkin-
son, Binney, pickerson, Sergeant, made it ia
NOUS and its modern rank Is not less distin-
guisiled
MIR. Brewster, 1t Ia true. will no doubt con-
tinde to wear ruffles. and will persist in the
he!nous guilt of receiving agrcOlOus Congress
men, while himself arrayed in coat of silk vel
vet But II the representative from the rural
district will begin to read the argument of the
Attorney General. in concluding for the gov
eminent in the star route trials, he will find It
dlfcult to put 1t down until 1t Is finished. and

| 'unmitigated staggerer let him lock to the re-
ply to the letter OF Marshal Henry to the Presi-
! dent protesting against removal for incapactv
ana unfaithiuness. He will at once con-
ciude that the silk velvet and ruffles do not de-
tract from clearness Of statement and vigor of
! style. 1t is too much the custom Of neWspa-
| pers which should give public sentiment the
| proper direction to give to such unimportant
circumstances an Importance which they do not
deserve After all is it unnteresting or blame
worthy that gentleman should perfer to retain
the manners and customs of his youth es-
peclaily when they are most agreeable. DAT

philosophy to perpetuate the good times and
their pleasant memories, even ut the risk of

LIVESTOCK ON THE FARM.

The business of rearing livestock is
not without some vicissitudes peculiar
TO itself, but, as the years roll by with
their unreasonable floods and frosts,
intelligent farmers do not fail to per-
ceive that il involves less risk, less dan
ger of loss and failure, and more
chances of profit than any other de-
partment of agriculture. Unseason-
able rains prevent the planting of
grain or rot the seed in the ground.
Rains at harvest on some crops, and
frosts before some others, cut short
expected and generally sadly needed
incomes hordes of insects cheat the
farmer of the fruits of his labor, while
wide fluctuations in prices keep him
perpetually on the ragged edge of
anxiety. BY none of these contin-
gencies is the livestock interest of the
farm seriously prejudiced. The carly
rains make the grass grow more
abundantly, and the early frosts in
crease the proportion of farm products
which, without livestock. would be a
total loss. The frosted corn may not
produce so many pounds of beef and
pork as the sound grain, but it will go
far toward retrieving the loss, ar 4 the
deficiency will scarcely equal tie pro-
portion of sound grain which would
have been sold off the farm. The
frosted corn will not grow next year,
but livestock in growth one season
will wipe out the disappointments of
the season before. Confined i'm a bar
rem lot, and its entire food of every
description purchased in the open
market and brought to it, perhaps no
description of livestock can figure a
profit. But upon the farm its growth
is made largely upon products which
otherwise 60 to waste. 1t consumes
the grain in the fields which the farmer
has overlooked. or which il will not
pay him TO gather, the straw and
coarse fodder which would otherwise
rot upon the ground, the grass upon
the hillside he cannot cultivate, the
commons he cannot enclose, in the
wood lots he cannot subdue, and in
the pastures which lie has not the cap
ital or time TO till. From these sources
it is brought, practically with little
cost or care, into a condition where il
will give generally better return
than the marketman for such of the
more valuable and available products
of the farm as may be fed to it. 1t
will require succession of disasters
to floor the farmer who makes the
rearing Of livestock the leading feat
ure of his business. The farmer with
a badly frosted corn crop on his hands,
and little or no livestock TO consume
it, is certainly out of luck.-BreedeTs
Gazette.
