Pickens District, s. C.

EDIToRS SOUTHERN CUL vAToR -
Having seen an account from various parts
OF the South on agriculture, suffer us to Of
fer you one from the Southern part of Pick
ems District, S. G.. In this part of the
District, twenty years ago, some of its best
farmers made from so to 100 bushels of
wheat, and from 200 to 300 bbls. corn and
few bales of cotton. In the present man
ncr of farming, the same men make from
800 to 100 bushels of wheat, and from
400 to 800 bbls. of corn--cottou anu other
things i'll the same proportion; the soil
has improved by the sowing of peas audma-
muring.
The yield of wheat, on our best acres, is
from 81 to Al bushels formerly 10 was
an extra yield and much talked Of Some
ofour farmers have made this year, 20 BUSH
els to one sUwn.
Some of our best fixed farmers can house
a large crop of wheat while they finish their
other crops; then, at their leisure, get it
out and sun their entire crop Df wheat
We witnessed the tlreshin~ out and
cleaning Of two bushels of whcae in three
minutes, and have no doubt that bushcl
a minute could be threshcd. Double gear
ing is used to the Spike Thrcshcr, on an i'm
proved plan, by the Messrs. NIason's four
horse power The machinery is simple,
and the advantage is, chat the straw is ear.
ricd out of the barn, the wheat nicely clean
ed without the uid of any one to rake as
formcrly-all done by men of our own dis
trict.
The inhabitants, some years ago, when
it rained, would take their dogs and guns,
and instead of looking after their washed
down fences, and obstructcd bitches, as
they now do, would spend their time in
hunting, Instead of gun and dog, it is tho
spade and shovel, ditching out the branch
apd creek bottoms, hauling in leaves and
making manure on all leisure occasions.
We have one of the best markets for pro-
duee in the up-country. The line of the
Rabun Gap Railroad, German settlement
(their town, Walhalla) and Tunncl Hill,
making fine market for all kinds of pro-
duce, lumber, &c.
Last, and best ofall, we have fine schools,
taught BY classical teachers, throughout the
whole District Why should any one1cavc
for a new country, or abuse and dcridc Pick
eus District, because of its nearness to the
mountains? f. p. WERNER.

quaintcd with the gentlemen soliciting their
support, and, before the contest is over, be

Court.

The Court of Common Pleas and Gcueral
Sessions convened at this place on Monday
last. Judge WARDLAw is presiding. There
has been much business before the Court,
though the cases have generally been small
and unintcresting. The Sossionsis crowded
with cases, many of which have been dispos-
cd of by the Court and Solicitor. The State
arraigncd IRA HAMMOND for the murder of
EDwIN HOLLIS, but, after trial, the jury rc-
turned verdict of "not guilty"

Speech of Senator Hammond.

We have placed on the fourth pago the ad-
mnable speech of Gov. HAMMOND. on the adj
mission of Kansas into the Union. 1t is the
production ofa strong mind, and is distln-
guiShed for its caudor and fairness. The
position claimed for the South, and her abil-
ity to maintain soperato Independence, is
demonstrated by reason anu facts that cam
not be controvertcd. This effort of our new
Senator has neen we'll received throughout
the country, especially at the South and we
ask for it an attentive pcrusal. A corrcspon-
dent of the Baltimore Sun, present during
its delivery, says:
" The Senate chamber was the theatre of
unusual attraction to-day. Gov Hammond
OF South Carolina, made a speech full of pow
or, interest and el0quencc, upon the subject
of the bill for tho admission of Kansas. AE
ter treating some minor points, the Senator
considered the main question which was mt
the bottom of this dgitation--that il, slavery.
He cited the declaration of Mr. Seward that
the battle had bcon fought and won--or i'm
other words, that tho South was conquered,
and nothing remained to be done but to pro-
hibit all Southern ocoupancics of slave terri
tory and remodel the Supreme Court to com
piotc the destruction ofthe South. The South
would then be oppressed with protective tar
ills for internal improvement systcms, fish
bountics. and a stupendous national bank to
control the financial power of the "uutry;
and next, the North would proceed to abol-
ish slavery in tho States, &c.
lie thought it proper that the question
should be practically considered. lie was
disposed to see the question settled us soon as
possible He proceeded, therefore. to bring
tho South 'td the North face to face, and
compare their resources and means for the
maintenance OLA separate organization. He
drew picture of the at resources of tho
South, and her ability TO sustain herself as
one OF the most prosperous and peaceful en-
pires of the world
Mr., Hammond spoke only about an hour,
and was listened to with profound attention

lowing
on the evening of the 10th ultimo,

longing to that Chief, approached the sta
ton occupied by the delegation of friendly
Indians. They were met by few of the
delegation and escorted into camp left that
night and returned next morning with an
other Indian (brother-in-law of Bowlegs).
The hostile Indians again left camp on the
21st, after having made arrangements with
jumper to meet Bowlegs in four days.
On the 9th ult, Bowlegs, one of his
principal men, son of Assinwah, and one
of the Chiefs of Sam Jones party--four in
all--were having talk with Maj Rector,
who is quite confident of his ability to In
duce all their people to emigratc.

which the question of removal will be set
tied
Mai. Rector has declined the services of
General Blake. The latter gentleman is
now in this place.
i The friendly Indians, in their scouts,
failed to find the hostile Indians. The
latter found the white flags, and came into
the camp without solicitation The fact
augurs woN for favorable result of the
negotiations now pending.
Under all the circumstances, we feel san

terminated by the peaceful removal of the

The Season.

Tho genial influences of the season are
affecting pcraeptibly the fruit-bloom, and
towing our nature to that haven of delicious
ness which it inspires. The flowers, with
their freshness and beauty, are being famed
into existence by its gentle breezcs. The birds
too, are sounding their joyous wood-notes
and hill and dale are putting on the green
garb of nature. But, after passing through
two successive Court-weeks, it would bc UNI
reasonable to expect eithcrp patience or poetry
from us; therefore, we have drawn on an
exchange for spring sentiment, and have
been fortunate, we think, in finding the fol-
lowing couplot:
