As planting time approaches an impeitant '. question for the fanner te consider is v"Whut shall I plant 7" Tlie prices being paid for tobacco aie much lower than weie paid in former years. There Iscuiiiparativo Iscuiiiparative !y little iiupiiry for seed leaf, and tlie Ha. lana seed which was te take its pl.ice, is net satisfactory either in quality, weight per acre or price. What, then, shall the harvest be? Net wheat at 70 erbO tents a bushel; net corn at 10 or 50 cents ; net eats at :Vi or 10 cants ; nor potatoes, that last year could hard ly be sold at any pi ice. Cattle feeding is only prelltable wheie the manure can be used advantageously us iu tobacco growing. What better than ran landewneis de than te plant their usual acicagoef tobacco? In no ether crop tan they lielp themselves and help their tenants by having small portions of land cultivated "en the shares" Iflittle or no money was made en last year's crop, It docs net lollew that noue w ill be made this year. If nliite cin exlstcd last year te an extent that seriously impaired pi ices it dees net fellow that it will de seagam.

Next season will prebablv lii much uiote prelltable 0110 ler the tobacco fanner than the last. Statistics from the I'nlted States Internal Hovuuue do de do paitmeut show that thore is a constantly in creasing demand for geed cigar leaf. The Tobacco Journal has completed the follow ing figures : Thore were manufactured dining last year, according te the comiiiissienoi'natatistic.4: 3,415,fil'l,U17 cigars. We tlgure the total consumption el Suma tra ler the past year at 2,19-1,-IUO pounds.

The withdrawals et Havana tobaccos from bended wareheufces during tlie year ivore 50 25G bales. Quantity of seed leaf (wrappers, binders and tillers) required te make abe 0 2.832, 209,017 elgais at 25 eunds jer 1,000, and alter a deduction of 60,150 bales er5,025,tkHl pounds et Havana: 7S271.175 iwhiikIs, or, taking 350 pounds net Hir ease, 223,012 cases. In warehouses thore are this day 3ii. bales of Sumatra appraised ut 75 tents and about 2,000 bales at 3ft cents. An absolute! exact number cannot be stated, as in some ware houses Havana and Sumatra are net classi Iled separately. At a fair estimate, airl cd at alter a consul tation with leading leaf merchants, the stock of old seed leaf en hand throughout the coun try w 111 aggregate 100,000 eases. Hy the sumo means tlie yield et the '81 crop is estimated te be as fellow s : ( 'axes.

These tigurcs show that the amount el cigar lear new en hand is only a trille larger than was required te llll last year's demand, and had it net been for tlie Importation of Sumatra tobacco the supply of cigar lear would net have met the demand. Ah our Iluvana seed variety when frnn from wllltll elll. UlakOS US rit'll and glossy a cigar as the best Sumatra, and Is of vastly sujiorler flavor, nnd can be grevvu at much less cost than Sumatra Is sold at in our markets, tobacco growers have every reason te bollevo that tlie rorelgu weed will te driven out or competition with the better native tobaccos, and that Havana seed will next vear bring much better prices than aie new being paid ler It. The moral or all this is, plant Havana weed, eultlvate it carefully, handle it judiciously und it will realizu u larger piellt per acrofer the larmer than miy thing else he can plant.

The company play ut low prices and as a consequent e they had a big audience. Tlie gallery was packed se full that the old story of "sardines in a box was lelt" way behind. The clrcle was tilled te standing loom, but the pai quelle could easily have seated mere. The ploce presented by thotieuiio is called "Chips and Shavings." It is said te have been written "for laughing purjieses only." Theio is no plot te it, but it contain.'! plnhty of fun, and the audience last evening seemed delighted w ith it. The seeend act is the best, us It servm te intreduce a clever let el specialty tieeplc. The first te appear was Miss Lettie Sinclair, who gave what the bills called a "song and dance," and created lets of fun. Miss Kittie Leve, who informer years was en e el tlie well-known Love Sis ters, and aClcrwaids of the Horseshoe Four, sang several songs. The one which seemed te please the most was en politics. The au thor et the song must have certainly been a Democrat, und judging from the troineud treineud troineud eua applause the majority or last evening's audieuce were of the same patty. The lady also gave a song and dance In capital style. Fred llarth, a line contortionist, followed and performed seme wonderful leats. He docs his business In black face and grotesque costume, and it cer tainly Is n novelty, Little llosebtid followed in a medley, and l'er an encore guvn a Kind jig. This artist was last seen here with Teny Denier seme years age, when she seemed te be quite a little girl. She has grown consid erably and is new a young woman. She is as lively as ever, and shows improve ment with her years. Miss Kva Hevvett, an excellent porlermer en the cornet, played a number or pieces, and alie gave way te the Oawthorne brothers, who made a tremendous hit. One appeared in a Dutch and the ether in an Irish character, In a short sketch entitled "OH ler Australia." Their Jokes were new und dancing lirst-class. They wound up their act by playing several pieces en thecuiiceitlua, which set the audi ence wild. They secured a number el en en certs. This ended up the specialty part, and the third act, in which a tunny drill was given, was very shett, and it closed the show. The peeple are all geed in their specialties, and il'last night isan iiulicatlon.theuudiencos will be large all week. OMTUAUV.

An old resident or Columbia claims that en the second of April, 1813, k-.uuM trussed the liver en Ice, at this point. His assertion has been contradicted by ether "old lesldentM," and who is right is a dllllcult matter te learn. In all proba bility, however, the feat of the Wrlghtsvlllcr, who crossed the Ice hut Friday, has never been equalled. The danger or n Heed and Ice In eak-up Increases dally, and It will be strunge lr It does net occur this week. The river has been ilslng l'er a week or mere, but se slowly, as te cause no fear of dkuheus Heed. Yesterday it raised six Inches, mid last night it roll oue Inch. The great raise, at Marietta, or six feet was probably caused by the water's progress being ictarded by an Ice gerge at Chiipies. Frem appearance one is led te belleve that thorejiorttluta break has been made In the dam, near the llsh shute Is Hue. At the point lu question, water and Ice rapidly passes (In appearance,) thteugh a spaee in ihmlaiii. The tiuth cannot be learned, as it is impossi ble te get within 100 yards of the place w here the break Is supHised te be. If it be true, however, greater damage will bu dene te the dam, when the general Incuk-tip comes. P. It.

Mr. Nmimnii I'nlltlrd te the Mnnry He Hn Svrnt en III Heuse The Drpntlters AlUmeit n SM)rT" Current Court lliiilnes I)liiieil Of. Court met at 10 o'clock this morning rer the appointment of auditors, und tlie transac tion efcuri cut business. The most Important business or the session was the reading, by Judge Livingston, or two opinions in (he Hendersen bank cases The llrst of these related te tlie question of whether Gcerge Nnttman, esq., te whose wifeMr. Hendersen had deeded a property during his Insolvency, should be allowed Ter the improvements he had made upon it in geed faith. Following Is the essential portion of the llrst of these : The Nnuinan L'nae. On the hearing we wero In doubt as te whether or net a court of equity should en ter this bill, It partakes se much of the na na ture or a iiicre ejectment bill is net Hied by creditors, but, by an administrator who has filed no account nor applied rer an order te sell the leal cstate of the decedent Ter pay ment et debts Hut Inasmuch us the supreme court lu Vew ler's appeal lias said, that vv here n debtor dies under the acts which provide (as in Pennsylvania) that all debts of a decedent shall boa lehi iihui hlsibal estate for u period or equity will lie en thepart or creditors who have net reduced their claims te Judgment against ene te whom the decedent in his llie time had conveyed land in Iraud or said creditors And In L'lrlch's appeal : That administra tors having an order from the orphans' court te sell the real estate et a dtcedeut ter the payment el his debts, ure the prejier parties te llie a bill in equity against u third person in whose name tlie title stands, hi order te compel him te make aeonveyance te the pur chaser. And, as It is admitted by the bill and an swer, that it will liccome necessary Ter the administrator te sell all dccedent'B real estate te pay his debts In mil, uud the parties wuiv e objections und dcslre us le consider and pass iiH)ii the case as presented, en bill mid an swer, we have concluded te de se, with lur tlicr question. It is nut disputed that Ames H. Hendersen was insolvent at the time of making uud do de llv cry or the deed te hU daughter, Mrs Nan man, ea is alleged in tlm bill. Ner Is it denied that wild, deed it fraudulent and void us te the creditors eruaid Hendersen ; the answer of respondents raises no question concerning these points. It Is Admitted by the bill and answer thai whlle thu deed Is void as te ci editors, it was accepted without euy Iraud, or knowledge of the insolvency or tlie granter', In perfect honesty nnd the utmost iroed faith by the urantce. 'Mrs N'aumaii his daughter, and her hus- iiauu, wcoige namnau, arju that, alter the delivery et told deed, tuM Onerga ivumiiut In or feet geed taltht believing Ids wild te have n geed title, and lorlhe benetU of his wile and children, made valuable Improve ments te and enlarged the heuse en fsnld premises, and ill se doing, bona lido ex pended the sum et tl,7(12 0.". And, "The only question really raited by the bill and answer is whether or net said Geerge Nan man should, en a sale of said real estate l'er the bcnellt or the creditors id said Hcntter Hcntter sen, boallewed and repaid oulel the pur chase money the amount se expended by him in inakiiigK,iid improvements?" Hy the Kngllsh, as well as Americait com mon law, it is helil, that the true owner would recover his land lu ejectment, without liability te pay rer Improvements w hlcli may have been made uien It by an occupant with out title, as improvements annexed te the t'lccheld the law deems jKirt of it, nnd they pass with thorecevery,overyoccupantmakos improvements at Ids cril, even If he acts under a iKiua tide bellcLet ownership. Such is the rigid I ule of the cSmuien law. The rule of the civil law was mere liberal, and allowed oue who had made improve ments en land lu Ids powessien,undcr a bona tide belief that he wee the owner of it, te exatt lull compensation ter the value or such Improvements, leas the value or the use of the land, before he could be cemisjllud te surrender it. Chancery, bun owing Ireui the civil law, make the first Innovation upon the com mon law dot trine, and it came at length te be held in equity, that when a bona ilde pos. sessoref properly made meliorations and Im provements upon It, in geed faith, and under an holiest belicr et ownership, and the real owner was, ler any reason cemiclled te eome into a ceuit el' equity, that court, applying tlie familiar maxim, that he who socks equity, must de equity, and adopting the civil law rule of natural equity, would compel him te pay Ter these improvements, or inditstrlaLac inditstrlaLac cesslens, net the full cost is-rlia, but, se far as they were iiermancntly beneiicial te tlie estate and enhanced its value. lu Jacksen vs Loomis, the supreme court or New Yerk say : The value or periuanent improvements made by an occupant under a bona Ilde purchase, may be ullovved in an ac tion rer inosne profits, ut least te the extent or the rents due te the plalutilf. In Whitletlge vs Wait (Kentucky) it is siid tlut n bona tide occupant of hind, bo be lleving himself the owner, is entitled te be ivaid the enhanced value of the land by tea tea seu of his iniprev cmcuLs made after, as well as before the commencement el" an action by w hlch he was evicted. In Huckcr l'er Levick v& Abell cl nl., Simpsen savs. wherrf a son under a verbal gilt from the" rather, takes possession, and improves lands expecting the gift te be con summated, he Is equitably entitled as against creditors te compensation, ler such improve ments, uud cun held n lien upon the laud rer the same deducting the value of tlie use. It u plalntill in equity (says Story) seeks the uid of the court te enforce his title against an innocent person, who has made improve ments en land supposing himself te be the owner absolutely; that aid will lie given him only upon the terms that lie shall make due compens'itieu tesueh Innocent porsentotho extent el the benefits which will be received fiem theso Improvements. In such case, if tlie 'plalntill' has rraudu lently concealed Ids title, and has thereby misled the defendant, the title te this com pensation Is founded in the highest justice. In Lauds et. al, vsCaxlwiseeLal., It is said, tiiat, u court el equity dees net undertake te lutlict a punishment, it merely aflordseom aflerdseom aflordseem uciisatloii or mevents fraud from producing an injury w here a deed is valid between the parties and is fraudulent only as against creditors, the money paid by the purchaser is te be relimded. In Jenes vs Perry, that, the tltle under which impruvemcuts are made may be wholly null without utlbctlng the right of sot set olf, if the requisite bona tides exists In Onte vs. Lichtonberuor. Lovvrie J. Hays : Whero a ruther purchased laud and paid part et tlie purchase money, mid then gave it te ids sons, which wits n fraud niuti creditors vjten Ms part, hut tot seen the part of the. sons, anil the creditors afterwnrds sold the laud en execution 'ns the property or tlie lather, it was held, that only se much or the tltle ns tlie sons ncqulred by gift from tlie father could be pursued by his creditors That, when tue sous pain me uaiauce et me purchase moiiey, and get a deed for the laud, they became substituted te the rights of the vender, which before that be had in the laud. That, llie shorilPsvcndeos who were substituted for the creditors, had no ether right against the sons than they would have had against the vender, and could net claim the laud without tonderiug the bahuiee of tlie purchase meney with intorest. In Dilworth vs Slnderling, the court nay : Kquity will net rolievo against a party in pos session unuer n ueiecuve ime, nweaa u aWeicaiicc Ixi made for improvements whero improvements have been made bona lido. And, in Paull's ex'ers, vs Kldred it Hill : That whero a party hits such an equity, arising out of the circumstances eounecteil with his claim and possession, as entitles him te compensation for improvements made, it constitutes uu oquitable lien ; uud n rigiit te held possession until it is satlslled. t rem a rev low ei uiv uuuvu cusw, uiiu many ethers we have examined, but deem It unnecessary toiile, It is. le our mind, per per lectly clear, thai w hile the deed or May 7, 1SS3, is fraudulent and void ns te creditors of Ames S. Hondersou, by reason of Ills acts aloue, nnd conveys no title te Mrs Nauman, ns against them it having, as is admltted, been accepted bylier and her husband, in lRirfect eoed faith, and without anv kuewl- edge of, or reason te suspect, the insolvency of the granter, nnd the Improvements having been made by respondent, Geerge Nnuinan, bona Ilde. for tlie beiielll or his wire and tam ily, they being in iH)ssusieu, mid he bcllov bcllev Ing the tltle of his wife te be geed nnd valid, he, the said Ooergo Nauman Is entitled, en a sale of said real estate hv thn administrator.

Judge Livingston also lead an opin ion in the test ease of Hendersen's administrator against Robt. J. Housten, which had been shaped te determine the quostlen whether a depositor who owed a nole te the bank net due w lieu Mr. Hender Hender eon died, and had funds en deposit nl the same time, was entitled te set-oil the latter against the claim of the estate. Hoquetul the laweriCiigl.iud bclere the statute el bank rilptcy te the ellcct that the creditor had te take his pre tela dividend in an Insolvent estate and pay his debt in full; whlle the Pennsylvania defalcation act or 1705 allow ed the set-oil. The essential (nature e! the Hendersen ease was that the claim of Housten was dcmaudable and ducat the time or Hendersen's death ; defendant In this ease could h iv e enfeiced payment of It before bis note was due, while Hendersen's claim against him was in the future. The whole line of Pennsylvania de cisions in such cises its the present estab lish (he right or set-oil. In Light vs Lcin inger (8 Hair 401) the supreme court held that a debtor may set oil a debt due him by his creditor nt the time el his death, though the estate el the creditor be inselv cut, "The administrator is bound te pay the debts or the deceased by as high mi obligation as he Is te collect these due him ; and upon a iistand lawful settlement, which it was his duty te make before bringing suit, It would Imve ". r"".T.' 'l!l nothing was due te hl.s in testate. The .icie...!.-.!. nams no piKtuiehu. vvhalever ever any ether creditor of the deceased, Iwcause his debt Is reduced by Uie lull amount of the dcvcdeut'H account against him. It is only the balance that is n debt nud in relation te that balance he stands en the same platform with ether creditors " The estate here was iii""elvcn(- lord Chan cellor Cew per said (1 P. Wins 320) that it was "natural Justice and equity that in all cases of mutual ciedlt only the bal.mte should lie paid." In Heaver vs Heaver (11 Harris 107) the siuie doctrine was declared te be Pennsylvania law Therelore the court decides tiiat the detiositef Mr. Housten, ?7f0.2."i, is a geed set set etl te his note, 85U, and that theie is due rrem him only f 87.7 1 with Interest rreni Jan. 20, lb85, the t'ime his note matured, without cost.
