Rainfall.
The rainfall in Jackson since our last
report has been as follows:

We have had more rain for this sea-
son than the sum total of the rainfall
of last season. We may here state that
the gauge kept by the Ledger Office is
of the most approved kind, the same
as used by the United States signal
service, and may be depended upon as
correct. We may not always take the
record at the same time each day, so
that inaccuracies may sometimes occur
as far as the precipitation of each day
is concerned, but the total result is
correct.

CHAPTER XVI.

80, CdAPIEN ANl.
At the time that Levi Coffin
and many others were engaged
in giving shelter, food and rail-
ment to the slaves that escaped
to the free states there was a
man by the name OF Jones, who
was in sentiment a strong abo-
litionist and who did not always
wait for the runaways to cross
the line dividing the slave from
the free states, but who like
Admiral Dewey by the Spanish
fleet, took charge OF them where
ever he found them. This man
lived in Louisville, Kentucky.
The colored people of Louisville
learning of his kindly disposition
towards them frequently applied
to him for counsel and assistance
when in perplexity Or distress.
Louisville was the headquarters
in Kentucky for slave-traders,
buying negroes in Kentucky for
the southern market and cotf1es
of slaves were often brought in
from the surrounding country
preparation to being shipped on
the packets for New Orleans and
other southern ports. Occasion
ally husbands or wives, who had
been separated from their families
would escape from these coff1es
and make their way to some safe
hiding-place among their colored
friends, where Jones would be
summoned to hear their sad story
and to devise some plan of aiding
them to escape. After waiting
till pursuit was over he would

Attention
Farmers->-

Why remain in the North
and stay in doors six months In
the year consuming what You
raise during the other six
months?
Go South where you can work
out doors every month III the
year, and where you are pro-
ducing something the year
round. If you are stock raiser
you know your stock are now
"eating their heads off" and.
besides, have to be protected
from the rigors of winter by
expensive shelter.
Economical stock feeding re-
auires the combination of both
fesh-forming and fat-forming
foods in certain proportions.
Alabama aud Florida produce
in abundance the velvet bean
and cassava, the first flesh
producer, and the latter a lat
producer, and they are the
cheapest and best fattening ma
teriais known to the world.
More money can be made and
with less labor, in general farm
ing, frat and berry growing
and truck gardening along our
road in the South than in any
other section of the Union.

proceed to the Louisville and
Cincinnati packet lying at the
wharf, and in his own or some
fictitious name, engage a state
room for the passage to Cincin-
natl, and get possession of the
key 20 the room. A short time
before the boat started and while
there was a great hustle on the
wharf, and along the gangway
he would have the fugitives come
on board with their bundles as If
they we're servants bringing the
baggage of their master or mis-
tress, and would direct them by a
prearranged signal to pass into
the room which he had engaged.
Here they found the key on the
inside of the door and Immediate
ly lock themselves in. After a
state room had been engaged,
the fare paid, no officer or servant
of the boat had right to go in
to the room and the passengers
would be unmolested on their
way to Cincinnati. Jones was
always very careful to engage
and pay for both berths, of
state-room so that no one else
might occupy part of it. Of
times Jones would go to Cincin-
natl on the same boat, that the
fugitives were on and then con-
duct them when there to Collins
or some other place of safety.
The packet boats left Louisville
in the morning and reached
Cincinnati before daylight next
morning, and when Jones did not
come himself he would telegraph
to Coffin to apprise him of the
coming Of the fugitives and re-
quest Coffin to look out for them.
This information was conveyed
in a manner that meant nothing
to others but was all important
to Cofhn-Jones ct al. Sometimes
the message read, Ego to box
at the post Office and take care of
my mail which you will find
there AT other times it would
read pay 40 dollars to J. U.
Bard on my account" different
numbers being used at different
times and on different occasions.
Coffin always understood that the
number designated the number Of
the state room occupied by the
fugitives and also that he could
tell whether it was in the gentle
mems or ladies cabin. Coffin ar
ranged for some one to go when
the boat touched the wharf and
tap at the door of the state-room
in a way that the fugitives would
understand, wait till the door
opened enough for him to be re-
cognized, then walk away and
the fugitives would follow him.
A colored person was generally
chosen to perform this mission,
and passed unnoticed amid the
crowd Of colored porters, dray-
men and hackmen, who went up
and down the gangway, carrying
baggage and assisting the pas
sengers. Sometimes the fugi-
tives had trunk of clothing and
as Jones saw that it was checked
