H. If. AULL, EDiToi. VEHY OLEVEtLY DONE. Editor Capers makes very pleasant mention of the report of the Pomaria trial, which we furnished him in supple ment form. His notice is cleverly done and his words of commendation are ap preciated. There Is no reason why there should not bo the most amicable relations between local newspapers, and in many instanceo they could be mutu ally helpful. Editor Capers had an eye to business when he furnished his subscribers with a full account of the trial. Nothing has been published In this county In years that has been read with as mui interest as the report of this trial. We thank EdIitor Capers for his kind words in reference to us. le says, af ter referring to the fact that ho fin ished the proceedings of the trial in supplemlent: "'he I'eport was writ ton by Editor Aull, and that it Is well written any who followed the exciting trial from start to filish, will unhesitatingly testify. Only those having experience in such work can havo ant adequate idea of the vast amount of labor re quired in its prepitration." P'LANT COHN. Tihe farmers of th is sect ion of count ry should always raise all they need for the farm on the farm at tiny time. We have preached that doctr-itno for a long time. In fact, we have preached it, so long that we fCl ahlost some emt1 barrassment in mIntionilng the subject. again. 1But in view of the probabilit.y of war and if there is war the scene of opelrations will be Iear us and possibly on our coast. it behooves the farmers of this seeti n to p'ant, a full corn (rop. It is too late now to plaIn! any mlore wheat or oats, but it, is tilme yet to plant Corn and potatoes. and every farmer should plant a little more thinil enough this year. to un II his own farm, for himn self and all the hands and stock on the farm. If there should he war the surplis provision Crop of the West will be used for tle. army, and if we fail to raise enough in t his section to feed ourselves it may make times harder that they are now. Theu, if there shou hi e no war, you will never regret having plenty to eat at home. AS TO CtOZIEt. We publish a letter from lRev. Ed winl C. Rice, imaking inquiry about.

Douglas has been requested by the publishers of the "Records of tho Civil War," in Wiashington, to write the histury of his battery, the only one fron Texas; if I an not mistaken, east of the Mississippi river. It was Iin ill the battles of "The Army of t he Ten nessee,"' beginning in some lighting in tlhe Indian Territory, Eilkhorn, Oak ilii, through all the campaigns under Beauregard, 1ragg, Joh nston, flood, to the close, a brilliant record in all that. a gallant band of soldiery could accom plli-h, excelled by possibly none other (luring the war.

Young Crozier, with all the hot blood and chivalry of a true Southerner, attacked the scoundrel, cutting him with a pocket knife. tie then made his way to the cars. Furious with brutal rage, t,he garrison arrestedi a gentleman and was going to kill him. Crozier learn ing of it elrrendered. A so-called triail was held and he was shotat 1111-upl) the next day.
