Whether we should enclose our crops ar.d "turn out" the remainder of our farms, or fence up the pas ture and leave the .cultivated por tions unprotected by any kind of fence save the law of the land, are questions that have now and then agitated the minds of the people of every one of the States of this Union. Firm adherents can be found to both sides of the question. We confess to having never become clearly settled in our opinion upon this subject. When we see our noble forests felled annually by the thousands of acres to procure fresh land to cul tivate; after we have, by a most slovenly system, galled and im poverished as many more fertile acres ; when we know that far more economy could be practiced upon the farm by avoiding the ne cessity of having so many thous ands of rails mauled every winter; when we know that almost every farmhouse burns as much wood in each fire-place as ought to supply dwelling, and kitchen, and wash house, during the cold season; when we know that a strip of land ten feet wide running aroun devery side of the field, and this frequently the best land in the field, is lost to cultivation because of the fence; when we show that every negro in the South will have a cow, and -never thinks he is a freeman until he can tie his own cow's horns to her fore foot to keip her from jumping the fence that he won't fix up ; when we think of the thousands of dollars that are lost to the intrinsic wealth of the coun try by the mauling and hauling and building and repairing that is ne cessary to keep up the fences around our farms ; when we think of the provocation to say hard words when fox hunters, tramps, jumping cattle or other nuisances make gaps in our fences, and cannot be pun ished for it; when we think how easy it would be to make a fat cow out of a poor one, a profitable cow out of an expensive one, if the owner was simply compelled to keep it up, take care of it, feed it, treat it as the returns would prove it should be treated ; when we think it is the crop that brings in the money and enriches thse coan try, and not the forests or.pasture 1 lands, and are therefore the more : worthy of lawful protection on that: account; when we think how much better one good cow is than a herd1 of poor ones ; when we think how easy it is to herd cattle and sheep and even hogs together, so that they will need but tile care of a single person a few hours each day to prevent their strolling out cf sight; when we think what a pleas-1 nre it is,what a real luxury to sit and watch iQnproved herds pasturing and grazing over lururiant meadows and fields; we say, when we think of all these things, we can but wonder legislation has not long since re quired our farmers to set about imn proving their stock by abolishing the existing fence law and allowing our broad acres to be cultivated without the miles and miles of, hideous worm fences everywhere But then, when we have lookedJ at the other side of this question, and thought how ignorant most of< our people are, even of the old established law upon this subject, and how sparsely settled our coun- J try is, and how much easier it is to enclose a cultivated field than it would be to enclose all the remain der of the majority of Southern farms, and how every farmer would every one that can owns a cow,) and that class are opposed to a stock law, because they think that I all the unenclosed pasture lands are, by a natural right, as free to q their cows as to the owner of the a pasture, and of what minor im portance to our farmers the care of stock is when compared to the infatuation that they have for the "cotton patch," and what wonder ful social and industrial revolution it would make to establish a stock law and abolish our fences, we have halted between two opinions. Much can be said on both sides of' this question, and more on the Dther, look at it as you will. Absence of fences is an evidence of progressive farming. When we go into a city, a town or village, (and there are some of these last in the United States) where the roses grow, as it were, "out doors," and the vegetable gardens are not enclosed, we-at once know there is an ordinance there pre venting stock going at large, ad with this idea is also immediately 2 coupled the thought that the cows z there are carefully housed and well s ed, and, in consequence, the peo- z ple have plenty of milk. But if we see a village with its a streets and pavements filthy, and the lots all enclosed, or even a 1 arm with high "stalked and rider- T 3d" fences, we are not long in com- T ,ng to the conclusion that idlers T .nd depredators, four-footed and horned, are round about. We once heard a man say a traveler could go alone from'north Arn Missouri into Iowa and tell, f without being informed, when he i ntered the latter State, because t ill the farming evidences were so much more progressive and thrifty; i nd he attributed it all to the fact e fhat the stock were inclosed in [owa and the crops were not; o whilst in Missouri the reverse was E tbe case. We have been told, too, 2 bat in North Carolina, where the S >ption was given to counties to ote "fence or no fence," where ver "no fence"~ prevailed the peo- n pe have become reconciled to it, arms have been improved, cattle ~ ave increased in number and e value, and the farmers would not, .1 they could, return to the "old ut." We have also heard grum-T lers at several places where we bave seen the no fence law in force, but we did not regard th'eir comn laints, because the thing seemedr hronic, and we all know there ire some men who would suffer orture if they had no opportunity o grumble. Fences are by no means univer ;al througliout the Union. Severalt f the Northwestern States require >wners to enclose their stock. In ortions of North Carolina, Vir ;inia and one or two Nor theastern tates, the same law prevails. In >e or two of the Southwestern t f tatcs the effort has been made, yut without success, to abolish 'ences. In Europe land is too valuable 0 .o be appropriated to fences.. I1 ngland hedges superceded fences, md now hedges are considered ob- s ectionable because their roots me-f 1opoliize too much land. Th~lrough-' >ut France and northern Italy, nd central and northern Europe. enes are almost unknown. Ofteu c ,he divisions of land do not appear L all. Wire fences were even a ibolished, and the only landmarks fi te stone posts at the corners of i .he laud to dlesignate its outlines. This question of ".Fence or no i Ten)ce" .vill, in all probability, p :ome before the Legistature at its I >reselt session for action, as the state Grange appointed a comn-e nittee to memorialize that body ( ipon this -subject, and wve trust b hey will performn the duty im- o osed upon them. The committee ~onsists of Messrs. Iredel Jon es, of I Tork ; J. N. Huiffman, of Richland; d R. C. Carlisle, of New berry, ~ratical men who understand the uibject as well as, perhaps better, han the legislators themselves. D. Wyatt Aikcen in The Niews and ourier.

In England *nd other countries, where heavy penalties re imposed, and an increasing vigilance racticed to detect and punish such frauds, ya system of iuspection of all malt liquors anufactured before exposed to sale, the ractice is very common. How much more a this country, where there are no laws on he subject, and no officer to carefully ana yze the products of the brewery ? Some ears ago, Professor Mapes, of New York, nalyzed the beer from a dozen different rewries, and all were found adulterated it noxious substances. It is said that the ale of drugs to brewers is a profitable pail f the trade. This is perfectly infamous. ~occulus indicus, (fish-berry,) nnx vomica, dog-button, from which strychnine is ob ained,) are some of the delectable substances ud i beer! These are potent poisons, nd the brewer found using them should be roaned at once in one of his own vats. 'he British Parliament passed a law to pre. cut this nefarious business. The following San extract: 'No druggist, vender of or ealer in drugs, or chemist, or any other erson, shall sell or deliver to any licensed rewer, dealer in or retailer of beer, knowing bem to be such, or shall sell or deliver to ny person on account of,or in trust for, any uch brewer, dealer or retailer, any liquor lled by the name of or sold for coloring, rom whatever material the same may be aade; or any material or preparation other han unground brown malt, for the darken g the color of worts beer, or any molasses, itriol, honey, quassia, coccolus indicus, rains of paradise, Guinea pepper, or opium, r any extract or preparation of molasses, or ly article or preparation to be used in worts ser for or as a substitute for malt or hops; nd if any druggist shall offend in any of thlese artilars, suchl preparation, &c., shall be rfeited, and may. be seized by any officer of xcise, and the person so offending shall for. eit five hundred pounds.' "Under this law, very many druggists and rewers were brought to grief, and yet the ractice continues. Unless the American 'ublic are ready to admit the immaculate urity and innocence of American brewers, he must be content, while drinking their er, to cherish the belief that they are at the ame time guzzling some narcotic poison or amaging medicine. In view of the unpre edented growth of the barley crop; of the rea increase of the number of mnalsters and rewers; of the vast unknown quantities of eer thlat arc drunk in every city and almost very town on the continent, it is the dictate f sould wisdom that the attention of legis ators should be called to the subject of the dulterationi of our malt liquors, and severe enalties should be inflicted as a preventive.
