Colonel I tu tier, of the Agrietiltural I In reau, lias heen written to IVoih Ger many very recently hy a body of emi grants tor information about the price an?! ijuality of lands in South ( 'aroliua. The inquiry is made by people who propose to immigrate to ibis Stair ami settle in large bodies. These people waul lo purchase land in (jtiniitities as largo --s ten, twenty, thirty, forty or fifty thousand acres. They air of tin- better class of emi grants, every brad of a family bring ing money enough not only to pay for Iiis ipiotil of hind, but also enough to build houses, buy agricultural imple ments and stork. They will receive, every consideration at the hands of the Cointni.ssioner, who suggests that farmers having tracts of laud Uvsell would do well on such an occasion as this to -'pool*' their lands?in other words, agree to sell lands ad joining each other in order lo make tip a large tract. These people will not come among strangers and hunt here ami there for lots of land upon which to settle, but khowingeacli other in the Fatherland, they pro-' pose to come in crowds and form communities in which they can have their own schools and churches and enjoy their religion and their bourn customs without restraint. The < 'ommissioiicr will he glad to give any information to South Carolina land owners who may desire to sell their lauds as to the price that they are likely to obtain, Ac. ? llvyistcr. absexce ok mint?.

At last to my relief it Ilasheil across mo that 1 was Sidney Smith. i heard also a elegy - man, who went jogging along on a road until he came lo a turnpike. ?W hat is to pay?'

The farmers of Kdgefield county have organized a Planters Protective Association, the object of which is to extirpate and stamp out the illegal and dishonest trallic in seed cotton. An executive, committee, consisting of one member from each township, is cair asking for members, and will oiler :i row n ! of one hundred dollars for proof to convict any person or persons of violating t he law regulat ing the sale of .seed cotton. This is a wise move On the part of the Kdgc liohl farmers, ami we would he pleas ed to see similar organizations form ed in t?t her counties of the State.
