The .suiproino court has decided

Throo Now Laws.
Among the nlets piassed by the
Logislaturo that most directly affect
the farmers, are the fence law, thle
ropeal of the lien law, and the act
preventing the sale of seed cotton
between sunset and sunrise.
The question of fence or no fence
is left with the voters of each couns
ty, and the no fence party will
doubtloss carry all the upper conmi
ties and agriclh lira countics of ti(
middle bolt. It hits long heei needed
and the abolition of thel present law
-Cannot too soon take plaee. When
the time of voting is ordered by the
county coiimmissioniers, the friends
of the change should umke an active
canvass in its behalf. Somite ol)pp)i.
tion to the clange is said to exist,
but we believe it arises muore from
anistakni ideas, and awant of inform
ation thia anything else, and a
ifair presentation of the mnatter on its
,merits will win over the present op.
-ponents.
Tho lion law will be abolished in
January, and farmers then will bo
.oonpellod to seok advances on the
stren gthI of their private credit.
Those who am prompt in meeting
their obligations will exp r('rtieeo no
difliculty under the change. T1hoee
who have heretofore endeavored to)
evadoe obligations wvill not fare so
woell. Under the lien law, the indus
tr'ious farmer carries along with himt
the thriftless. The merchant char
gos a heavy porcenitage on all his
custimners in order to savo him from
loss. Hie losos enough to dlestroy
his theorebical p~rotits, while the in
dustrious farmor has to pay his ex,
horbi tant interost. The mecant
endeavors to balance oft' his good
.agamnst his badl customers.
It has boont chargoed that the lion
law huas been a curse. The pecoplec
next year will be able to judge,1
whether the law was a curse or a
blessing. Its abolition will have a
tendency to centralize labor, and
.cause .tho introductioni of fowver and
largfr Iarms.
.Of the-'seed cotton law, no praise
'cani be too high. The illicit trafil
in cotton hats been an unmitigated
evil to all honest croppers, whito
and black alike. A rigid enforco-'
mont .of its provisions wiill soon
shut u all .the cross road (lens and
gin mills 'in itho 6taIte. Only legiti
mate trado.'-ciau -succeed.
Glowrnor Hlamupton has accepted

did ithis for nearly threo years. Tho
garrison was often reduced to sora
straits for food : "a goose was
worth a guinea," and Elliott tried
upon himself the experiment of
living upon four ounces of rice ia (lay
for a week. Exciting stories are
told of the privateers that .ran in,
