Digging for Gold.

DALTON, Ga, January 2l.-Qaite q
number ofpeople have been excited into
promiscuous digging for buried treas.
.uae, two miles east of Dalton, near the
fork of the roads for Spring Place. A
railroad man was entrusted with letter
from sick Louisiana soldier during the
war, which, in case ofhis death, was to
be forwarded to certain address. The
federal occupancy Of this section delayed
the sending of the letter, and it was put
away for safety, with private papers, and
forgotten. Recently it came to light, and
with note of explanation, forwarded.
It was not delivered, but returned To the
writer. This letter states that certain
amount Of gold. possibly 81, 900, was bu;
ried under certain oak tree which, with
the location, was fully described. The
information has leaked ont, aud the work
of unearthiDg it has commenced in good
earnest. The tree cannot be found, but
old stumps that answer to the possibility
are being dug around, till for several acres
is presented the appearance of a prairie
dog colony.

An Immense Roost Of Crows.

NEWMAN, ILL, Jan. 13.-For months
past crows, to the number estimated all
the way from one million to three mil.
lions, have swarmed in the eastern end
of Douglas County, feeding in the fields
in the daytime and collecting at night at
their famous resort, one and half miles
northwest of this place, in McCawn's
grove, which covers some sixty acres.
About dusk these birds gather in from
the surrounding country in mYriads,
and the noise they make is deafening.
Frequently they alight in such vast mum.
bers on the trees that large limbs are
broken under their weight. One day
last week black cloud of these birds
was crossing the railroad track near here,
when the smoke from the engine blind
ed them. They flew against the side Of
the awifty moving cars and persons who
watched the strange sight counted nearly
two hundred dead crows. A party of
hunters from Hume armed themselves
With shotguns yesterday afternoon and
visited the roost. Six of them shot and
killed 1876 in less than two hours. Ere.
queptly the birds would rise In such
clouds that they would almost obscure
the sun from view. They make sad
havoc the fields Of corn, and it seems i'm
possible to drive them out.

A Cotton Planters Luck.

So famous have the South Carolina
cotton planters become all over the world
that they are now in demand in foreign
countries where cotton is planted. Some
time ago the we'll known cotton firm OF
Norden & Co. of New York wrote to Mr..
g. E. Salinas, of the cotton house of A.
Salinas & Son, of Charleston, on behalf
Of a firm in Russia, asking Mr.. Salinas
to make arrangements with capable and
intelligent cotton planter to 60 to Russia
to plant cotton. Mr.. Salinas made ar.
rangements with Mr.. John s. Scott, Of
Mars Bluff, in Marion County, who is
we'll known as one of the most successful
cotton planters in the State, and on the
10th of January Mr.. Scott sailed from
New York for Moscow, Russia. When
he reaches Russia Mr. Scott will 60 to the
district of Caucasus, one of the Southern
provinces of Russia, where he will enter
upon the discharge of his duties. His
special business will be to -superinknd
and instruct the natives in the cultivation
Of cotton, which is planted there in large
quantities. Mr.. Scott is a reliable, capa-
BILE and intelligent planter, and he will
have direct supervision Of one of the lar
gest private cotton plantations in Russia.
Of course Mr.. Scott will receive very
handsome salary. Cotton planting is
fostered by the Russian Government, and
Mr.. Scott will thereby have special ad.
vantages in his new field. BE will also
be sent to Central Asia to confer with
planters and dealers in that section,
where cotton is now produced in large
quantities annually. Its estimated that
the annual cotton production in Asia
amounts to about eighty.four million
pounds.-News and Courier.
