COMMODITIES BY WEIGHT.

In the west a different method
from that in use in the south is
employed to obtain the quantity
of nmmodities of various kinds
offered for sale. Instead of SELL
ing eggs, peaches, apples, ETC., by
the dozen, or chickens, etc., for
so much each, we find that the
universal unit of value, as ascer-
tanned by weight, was the pound.
This plan is undoubtedly greatly
superior to the one now practiced
in the south, in that it is more
equitable both to the buyer and
to the seller, affording as it does
in all cases, all exact equivalent
for the price demanded and paid.
Some egg are much larger than
others, as are also some peaches,
apples, chickens, etc., than others
of the like kind. Consequently by
cur method, dozen eggs, or a
chicken are variable quantities as
to bulk, sometimes the buyer and
sometimes the seller having the
advantage of the bargain.
Formerly the United States In
ternal Revenue service used the
gauging rod to ascertain the ca
pacity of casks; but this expedi-
ent was found to be inaccurate as
the contraction and expansion of
the liquid with cold and heat
caused the same space to repre-
sent, under different conditions,
different volumes. At present
the contents in gallons of barrels
is obtained by weight by the Of
ficials of that service.
Cannot our Marietta merchants
give this system a trial?

ITEMS OF PITH AND POINT

John Pendley, the self confessed MUIR
derer of of Policeman Ponder in Attain
ia, was found guilty with recommen-
nation and sentenced to the peniten-
tiary for life.
Capt. Isaiah Williams the oldest citi-
zen Of Dooly county, has paid his taxes
fifty-nine consecutive years in Dooly
county and never had fl ia. issued
against him in his life. The old gen.
tleman has sold his farm, only retain
ing the live stock, and is living on the
profits heretofore made.
The Morse Cotton Compress Compa-
ny, in connection with Americas fac
tory, will shortly erect a large COM
press in that city, costing $4,000. Be-
tween sixty and seventy thousand
bales were compressed there this sea-
son, and with this additional press
and the influence backing it, Ameri-
Gus receipts may yet reach a hundred
thousand bales annually.
There ia one farmer near Dupont who
lives and has his being without the use
of cotton. That man is Mr.. William
Barlow. Mr.. Barlow does not raise any
cotton, never has raised it, and says he
never will. But, instead, he plants
corn, rice, peas, potatoes and other
provision crops, which, as he says, if
cannot be sold, they can be eaten.
His surplus corn crop he has ground
into meal, which he sells for a fair
price, but he does not sell any corn.
He raises an abundance of pork for
sale, besides number of beeves every
year.
The latest plan to get rid of the ground
mould is to dig hole some three feet
deep along their run, when they will
fall into the hole and perish. The
Dooly county farmer who made this as
sertion said that he made the discovery
by digging post holes. The posts were
not put in for some time and when he
returned he found moles in almost all
the holes, some dead and others alive.
He has since tried the experiment and
finds it will work to charm in extermi-
mating the moles, the great pests of the
farmer.
Showers of rain have done good

take more interest in electing oul
