The fact of the case are as is shown by the U. S. weather report that it has not been as hot in Macon, Miss., in the last five years by five degrees as at Rensselaer, yet their summers are long and the temperature is often high. Alfalfa requires it to do its best. There are plenty of shade trees, ice has the same effect there as here and is considerable cheaper. Plenty of faithful workers can be cheaply employed to do both the field and house work. Poultry and dairy products bring about the same price as here. There are many opportunities offered for an enterprising northern msn. And the cheapest alfalfa land in the U. S. C. C. CLAY, Macon, Miss. W. H. PULLIN, Agent.

He is the proprietor of the Alamo case at Monticello and under his charge it has become the reading restaurant of that town. We are pleased to record his success. One of the most interesting features of the Republican is the correspondence from Hanging Grove township, which is so ably taken care of by Royal Bussell, and there was considerable perturbation among our subscribers because of the omission of the correspondence last week.
