satisfaction. Several teeth I believed conld not

MISCELLANEOUS. Lan«l» idvaacim.
The unhlie -Sl«t of himlnl pnyperfy in
various part* of the State, made no
Tuesday last and reported in our ex-
changes, exhibit generally a decided ad
vance in value. It may aafely be said
that this description of property now
commands neuriy or quite .doable the
prices that conlil have been obtained 4b
year ego. This is an eneeeragtng mark
■>f Siutbern recuperation. There ia, we
think, no reaeon to feer that the ad
vance of real eetato will be a treated.
Crisis or coovnlsioos in momentary af
fairs and general bnainem may for a time
stop the demand for Southern lands, bul
that the advance .will be steadily main
tained is hardly a matter of doubt. The
truth is lands in the cotton region have
never brong^tthe prices that the^pro-
dactivenegaand profit-in unlturejoattVid.
Lands in thd North and Northwest, from
which the profit could bJRerived as from
good cotton lauds in the South,; have
for some time commanded from $50 to
$100 per acre, and the day- is probably
not fur distuut. when the same prices
will be paid for good lands ip the cotton
region.—Columbus Enquirer.
Lands in Georgia have advanced,, oa
an average, not rnuoh short of 300 .per
cent, in the last two years. A financier
was lamenting hia luck, the other day,
in having bought railroad stock instead
of lauds two years ago. He was tbeupn
tlie (joint of buyiug a plantation at five
dollars au acre, but was afraid of it;, and
it haa since been sold at seventeen dol
lars an acre. All the time this bee hums
in hia head: 2500 acres of land bought
at $5.00 per acre—$12,500. Bold at $17,
00 an acre—$42,500; amount lost, $30,
000. This gives him the cholic every
time he thinks of it, besides a pain in
the head. Bat seventeen dollars an acre
is no price for good land in Georgia.
There is an abundant murgin, and.when
the price gets up to fifty dollars au acre
we can begin to consider.—Macou 2de-
graph.
