Successful Deer Farms and the Pretty
Little Guinea Cow.
TAtlanta Constitution.

VALDosTA, April 13.-Did you ever
hear of or zee 8 deer farm:
Whether you did or not, there are
two here and deers are raised just like
chickens or turkeys.
It costs no more to raise venison than
it does turkey and there can be no
argument 80 to which is the finest
meat.
Deer farming is now venture, but
it has been tried and proven a success
by such men as Mayor w. L. Thomas
and Mr.. J. C. Hunt. Each of these
gentlemen have drove Of deer that
run about in pasture like cattle.
The only difference between the two
pastures is that it is necessary to enclose
the deer within a wire fence about
twelve feet high. Each of the above
named gentlemen have 8 pasture Of
this kind planted in rye, upon which
their herds of deer Craze and keep roll
ing fat. In the winter it is, of course,
necessary to feed them upon grain, but
as deer can be fed on the same guam
tity, or very little more, than turkey
the cost of raising them is very slight
while they sell at a high rate. At
present neither Messrs. Thomas nor
Hunt raise more than a dozen annu-
ally, and consequently they have not
yet commenced selling the venison, as
their families will consume that
amount. But within few years each
of the gentlemen will doubtless realize
handsome sum upon their deer farms.
The original stock came from the
country below here on the Florida line,
which abounds in deer at present.
They were captured when young, and
the herds are now as gentle and kind
as Jersey cattle.
THE GUINEA cow.
Lowndes county slso produces a
little cow which is indeed a curiosity.
1t is the same distance in heigth,
length and width, and is supported by
legs not more than twelve inches in
length. 1t bears the name Of the
guinea COW. The first were brought
here from Spain by an old Spaniard
who came to this country before the
war. The cow is very small and
chunkey, but it keeps rolling fat on al
most nothing, and is splendid milker,
the average giving from three to three
and half gallons of milk per day. Mr..
r. L. Stapler has herd of fifty perfect
little beauties. He disposes of young
COWS for 500 each, which almost
equals the price paid for Jerseys. While
their milk is not so rich os the Jersey,
the people here prefer the guinea.

THE BLACK LYNCHERS.
Governor Richardson Warmly Applauded
for Pardoning Them.
from the New York World. ]

In pardoning two negroes convicted
of murder for participating in the
lynching of a white man Governor
Richardson, of South Carolina, has
shown himself to bea brave and just
Executive. Many negroes have been
iynched in that State for crimes against
white women, but no white man, be-
fore this instance, has been subjected
to the same fate for a similar crime
against colored women. AS ng white
man has been hanged for helping to
lynch negroes, though the cases have
been numbeous, Governor Richardson
does not think it just to hang the first
negroes ever convicted of initiating the
example of white mobs. This is right.
Nothing is more fundamentally demo-
cratic than equal justice for equal
citizens. There should not he one rule
of morals or one law for white ruffians,
and another rule and another code for
blacks. In emphasizing this truth
Governor Richardson has done his
State and the South generally Notable
service. Equal and exact justice for all
classes and conditions of men is the
essence of good government.
From the New York Tribune.1
Governor Richardson, of South Caro-
lima, has taken a courageous and just
stand, for which he deserves great
credit. Two colored men were recently
convicted of!ynching a white man who
had committed shocking crime. They
were the first men who had been con-
victed of lynching, and the Governor
granted them a full pardon, saying
frankly that he would not allow them
to be made an example of 80 long as
white men had never been punished
for the same crime, especially in view
OF the fact that it was the first time
colored men had lynched any one. It
was Governor Richardson also who
lately pardoned out two little children
who had been sentenced to imprison-
ment for life for stealing few dollars
worth of things, and released a number
Of victims of the barbarous laws of
South Carolina. Verify, he shall have
bis reward.

WASHINGTON, June 6, 1885,


DEAR. DIR. PRYOR: Your letter Of
the I'd instant received at this moment,
and l reply at once. General Pryor,
when captured, was doing what had
been done on many occasions. but with
cut orders-eXchanging newspapers
with the enemy. At least, this was
the report made to me at the time, the
truth OF which was never questioned.
The point where he crossed our skirm-
ish line was little to the right of De
Boisseau's house, as reported to me.
Whilst it was against orders to hold
communication with the enemy, both
sides were very glad to have late papers
from the other side; in fact, they were
eagerly sought after by both Federal
and Confederate commanders.
When the details Of the manner in
which the General was captured were
reported to me went to General Lees
headquarters and made report Of the
same, and reIue ted penn ssi1n to write
to General Meade, asking if he would
return him. I wrote Meade that while
it was against General Lees orders to
hold communication with the enemy,
and no doubt his own orders forbade it,
yet, as it was done;continually it seemed
that the return Of General Pryor as q
prisoner could bedispensed with, and |
hoped he would return him.
General Meade replied very promptly
stating that it was against his express
orders to hold communication with the
enemy; and be had but = short time
before, dismissed two Captains for that
very thing-eXchanging newspapers
and Pryor would have to except the re-
suits of his own indiscretion. This is
my recollection of the case, and it is no
doubt correct. 1t was never intimated
or suggested that he has gone volun-
tarily into the enemy's line with the
intention of remaining. Had this been
supposed for an instant, would have
never requested permission Of General
Lee, nor would he had given it, to write
to General Meade requesting the return
of Pryor. General Meade's letter, stat
ing that he had dismissed two officers
for the same thing-eXchanging news
papers-tells what Pryor was doing at
the time he was captured. Regretting
that l should, at this late date, be re-
4uesIeu w WllIe d leIIel suCIl ae eho

I am very sincerely and truly your
friend.
(Signed) C. NJ. WILCOX.
It seems to us that the paper which
originated the cruel story, as we'll as
those, which by reproducing it, have
done grave wrong to brave and good
man, should, in common justice to
General Pryor, give as great publicity
to this denial.

A Band OF Pickpockets Go Through

a Set of Partisan Spiritualists.
Swindling by spiritualism has just
been tried with great success in Paris
by band of British pickpockets, the
members Of which gave themselves
out as mediums, says Paris dispatch
10 the London Telegraph. A few nights
since great jubilation was caused
among a select set OF Paris spiritualists
who commune with shadowy forms
every evening in rooms in the Rue st.
Lazare. One Of their number begged

friends, as they had been deputed by

were accordingly invited TO take seat

supernatural operations we're at once

there was tap of foot on the floor,
vague mystical forms seemed to float

full still, he amazed the assembled Gauls

racy or ease. The French spiritualists
were delighted. Tory aud his friends
we're lauded to the armament and asked
10 repeat their wonderful experiments
and TO commune with other deceased
French philosophers and poets the next
evening, which they did. Again the
shadowy figures moved about in mysti-
cal vapour, and the spirit OF Victor
Hugo was heard speaking amid semi
darkness, when some OF the spiritualists
telt tugs nc their watch-chaius and
hands fimbling about in their pockets.
Immediately the alarm was given, the
lights were turned up, and the spirits
