The Indians formerly occupied
the piney woods in summer, they
only came to the swamps in winter
to hunt game. Every fall they
burned off the luxuriant grass that
grew up under the pines, thereby
destroying the young underground
annually and keeping the country
open and healthy. After awhile
| the white man came and the Indians
were forbidden to FIRE the grass
the consequence was that the whole
Diney woods grew up in underbrush

The natural increase of popula-

meat from the mouths of the great
majority, save only as a luxury.
As our glorious republic g-ows
older the battle for bread grows
harder. The youth of to-day know
nothing of the pleasures of those of
moderate means of so years ago.
AS soon as a boy of to-day passes

Montgomery, Attala, Clay and per-

ling with the stock law. We haven't
the least desire 10 meddle with the
affairs of our neighbors, but expert
ence with the stock law in North
Carolina and South Carolina and
here IN Pamela county, has made its
former bitterest opponents its best
and staunchest advocates. It is es-
sentially poor mans law, and has
proven itself to be so, and If vote
was taken in this county now as to
whether or not it should be repealed,
we doubt If ten men would vote for
repeating il. Experience is the best
guide and teacher and this has
brought everybody to favor the law.
We do not presume to advise, but

full stock law was carried by ma
jority Of Ill votes; and for the next

General Marriott tells. in hts MEM
oirs," hows his light boots once saved
him from being killed by Austrian
lancers. At the battle of Eckmuhl he
was ordered by Marshal Lannes to con-
duct regiment Of cuirassiers to a point
where it was TO charge regiment of
Croats.
The French charged and annihilated
the Croats, but carrying their charge
too far. were in their turn repulsed by a
regiment of Austrian lancers. AS the
French retreated at gallop they came
20 where Marriott was standing, his
horse having been killed. Only few
hundred feet interviewed between the
lancers and the cuirassiers, and IL Mar
bot had been left behind he would have
been killed.
Two mounted soldiers gave him their
hands, and thus, half lifted from the
ground, he bounded along, while they
galloped ut rapid pace into their own
lines.
"It was time for my gymnastic course
10 end" he writes, "for | was complete
ly out of breath and could not have con-
tinued. learned then how inconven-
lent are the heavy long boots OF the
cuirassiers in time of war, for young
officer in the regiment who, like me,
had his horse killed under him, and was
supported by two of his comrades on the
return gallop in the same manner was,
found himself unable to keep pace with
the horses on account of his heavy boots.
He was left behind, and was killed by
an Austrian lancer, while escaped by
reason OF my light boots"
