Free Distribution of Fertilizers.

We sec it stated that a number
of the manufacturers of CONNER
cial fertilizers have signified theil
willingness to distribute several
tons each of fertilizing material
to the growers of tobacco through
out the State in order to encour-
age the farmers to test the adapt
of their respective manc-
facrures to the growing of tobac-
co. They have been in the habit
Of heretofore shipping large guam
titles into other States for this
purpose, and they desire, now
that Georgia has undertaken the
culture of tobacco, to bring their
goods to the favorable notice of
those farmers in Georgia who
may engage in this business.
The distribution win be made
through the Commissioner Of Ag-
riculture at Atlanta.

The Condition of the Farmer.


Are the farmers of Terrell in q
better condition, financially, than
they were tive or three yearssago?
The above proposition admits of
no sort Of doubt. That they are
in better condition, every way,
hardly needs to be affirmed; yet we
hear it discussed almost daily.
1t requires nothing but obserya-
ton and memory to convince the
most skeptical that the farmers,
not only Of Terrell, but South
west Georgia, are making such
speed of progress now as they
have not made at any time since
the war. But the merchant an
swers, "why IS it that my trade
has fallen off so frightfully?
Two years ago my sales amounted
TO $3.50 day; one year ago they
were $3.50 and to-day / have sold
but $50 worth Of goods" Thes,
are the very best evidences OF the
affirmative of the proposition.
II the merchants viii take the
pains to so back and examine the
records, they will find that the
bulk Of their trade, two and three
years ago, consisted in provisions,
meat, corn, meal, flour, etc. Not
only is this SO, but year after year
farmers aresbecoming more eco
nomical, which, in itself, may al
ways be taken as one OF the
strongest evidences of prosperity.

A Complicated Case.

On Monday Of last week Mr.. III.
G. Statham, of this place, sued
out an attachment against S. B.
Magbie, claiming $500 from Mr..
Magbie for eifecting sale Of the
Beal place in the lower edge of
this county. Tuesday Sheriff
Thornton, armed with the papers,
proceeded to the james place, be-
low Chickasawhatehee, and at
tached eight mules and a horse
in the possession of Mr.. j. n.
Porter. Messrs. Porter and Mag
bic both came tostown with the
sheriff and, having employed
COUNSEL, went to work to get the
mules and horse. Mr.. Porter
put in claim for the prop
ertv and rendered bond
for its forthcoming in event
it should be found subject.
About the same time Mr.. Magbie
rendered a repleyg bond and de-
manded possession of the
mules and horse. Sheriff Thorn
ton, being in doubt as to who was
entitled to them, refused to ac-
cept either bond or to turn over
the property to either pMty Por-
ter, through his attorney, J. M.
Griggs, Immediately applied to
the Judge of the Superior Court
for a mandamus to compel the
Sheriff to accept his bond and de-
liver the property into his pos
session. The application was
heard Saturday before Judge
Clarke, in Cuthbert. The petit
ton was granted and the Sheriff
turned over the mules and horse
to Porter. Simmons & Guerry
represented Statham, Hoyl &
Parks represented Magbie and J.
M. Griggs represented Porter.
