besides, is TO purchase three millions OF acres,

- General Sherman, Informed citizens Of South
Css.olina nov here, that his order OF the 18th
January, 1859, when he was on his march, to
give possession Of the abandoned Sea@ISand5 to
the negroes, Was for a merely temporary purpose.
He intended it for the bcneE5 OF the he!p pie>s ne
gro children and old people who followed and
6urdened bis array Upon the cessation Of the
war he expected that the plantations would he
restored TO their owners. General sherman said
he would state these facts if called upon by the
Committee.
- General Howard had advised restoration ofthe
: lands, and told the South. Carolina Commiree
now here, that if the 9th section should be Strck-
Aen out, he would advise the restoration Of these
lands to their owners. The President had also
intimatcd that be would restore The islands to

CRIME IN THE CouNTRY.-A telegram is going
the rounds of the No. thcrn papers that the papers
South are filed with accounts Of murders and
robberies. AS an offset to this we may remark
the same feature appears in the columns of the
Northern press. By every mail We receive pa
peys containing lengthy accounts Of crimes per-
pctrated In Connecticut fhere seems to be no
end to the trials before the Courts Boys, Of
scarcely twelve years, are even counted among
the greatest crowds Of law breakers. The "lo-
cap men on Northern Journals cannot complain
of the scarcity ofmatcr!al.
We do not deny that the Sonth has full rep
resentalion of thieves, vagabonds and robbers
within her borders, but it is not fair to charge
her with barboring more in proportion than are
contained in the North. AS we have had previous
occasion to remark, the whole country, North
and South, is infested with unprincped, heart
less scoundrelS, and the only way to eject a re-
form is to make telling example of those who
may be detected in their crimes.-ChGrIeSton

1. MASONIC.-We learn, says the Charleston Cou-
rier, that the Grand Lodge of Pennsylvania has
authorized u. W. Grand Master Orr to draw
upon theis treasurer for the sum of one thousand
dollars, in aid Of the Grand Lodge of South Caro-
lina In addition to this, considerable sums have
been donated by the New York and Pennsgl7a-
MIA Lodges in hehalf of local lodges in Columbia
and elsewhere. ,-. Z, -. .. 1-.
Grand Master Orr in his late installation ad-
dress, said the fraternity had great cause for con-
graduation, not only for the profession, but III
the practice of that highest of all Masonic vir-
tues, charity, as exemplifeG in the good feeling
and fe1lowshipyexisting between the MasonS Of
the North and the MaSons Of the South. Their
bonds had never been broken Masonry, he said,
was the only institution in which politics had not
been allowed to enter The same fraternal spirit
and sentiment pcryaded the Lodges now that did
before the commencement. OF the late desolatlug
civil strife. It's universalitY and benevolence
was exhibited upon that occasion. In looking
round upon his audience he perceived brethren
from every State in the Union, some Of whom
were year age in conflict with each other, now
sitting around the altar clothed in the insignia Of
the craft, engaged in one common cause, actua-
ted by the same universal spirit Of charity and
brothGrly love, participating with pure devotion
in the agreeable duties Of the evening.
!. It was, he said, subject for special congratu-
latien. to the Brotherhood when they found that
there was not enough Of charity in the Christian
Churches to reunitc themselves in their former
national associations and that religious societies
we're still separated from each other, that the
lesson of benevOience and charity taught in the
conduct of MasonS it was to be hoped would
have beneficial influence in restoring harmony
and fratcrna sentiments to those Christian socie-
ties.
We omitted, in former notice Of this inter-
estng occasion, very pleasant incident of the
evening. Brother Pierson exhibited to the au.
dience a certificate of Solomon'S Lodge, signed
by all the officers, dated 1855, showing it to be
one Of the Oldest lodges in America.

was the first person in over half a century that
united in person the Gubernatoral office and
that Of Grand Master of Masons in South Caro-
lima.

The Situation.

AS matter Of courseA SAYS the Phoenix. the
people of the Southern States feel deeply inter-
estcd as reg srds their political status in the
Union The position of the radical party-the
dominant party in Congress leaves. but little
hope for ar early rest ration of the Southern
Stats.
Our advice is, while we keep our readers, as
far as we possibly can, posted up on national
politics, let them leave them aside for the pres
ent, and turn in and ,cork. We have the t'mt1re--
not of politics-but Of existence, before, us and
we earnestly exhort, at this season, that every
capacity; every energy, every physical power, be
brought:into active exercise, just the same as if
there were no politicians or politics in the coun-
try. Our lands are here-our strength and en-
ergy is still left us-let, us go to work.
We-must have paticnce-and We are assured
she will have her perlectwork. The mingling
in politics now viii do us no good and ne do
not wish our fellow citizens to engage in this
business. :Our present and honest advice is, to
them, 10 apply themselves to the development of
the rich resources Of their State, uo the full en-
couragement Of every enterprise that viii con-
tribute to this development, and that, in the fu-
ture, distractions will not divert them from the
grand uses to which they may apply themselves
in. rendering their State one of the most prospe-
rous of the Union. $500. ..-- ~ .... .- ~.'-.
These are different sentiments from those for
merly enuncated, but, as, experience teaches,
they are the wsest to be entertained at the pres
ept junctrre. - '-..- .-- -

BUSINESS IN CI1ARLEsToS.-Business of all
kinds in this city is more lively than it was
month ago, and the merchants are in better
spirits. This change has taken place, too, before
the heavy spring trade as really commenced
BUYERS from the country are coming in gradually,
and although they do not make large purchases,
they order sufficient quantities of goods to- give
an air of life TO the interior Of stores and ware
houses. The impression prevails in business
circles that we will have E?ry fine spring trade
During the summer months it may possibly de-
cline but it will take rebound in the fall and
give our merchants all they can copVenentlY
attend to- 0fcourse al! depends on the quantity
Of cotton that is brought to this market and no
time should be lost in arranging for facilities
to transport that staple hither from all points
and quarters which formerly looked to Charles

! A y1s1T TO EDISTo IsLAND.-0n last We'd
nesday, party Of ten or twelve gentlemen,
owners of plantations on EdiSto Island, left
I this city on the steamer INa5 tosyisit and ex-
anime their lands on that island. On the
steamer was freedman, named Elias Jenkins,
who appeared to exercise considerable colltr0l
and influence over the other freedmen, both
on the steamer and on the island. On recog-
nizing the Planters be called the negroes on
board together and addressed them in the
presence Of the party of gentlemen. He told
them not to yield one inch of the land on the
island to any white man that they the col
ored and loyal people, bad strong friends at
Washington, who had passed a Bill through
/; Congress giving them the lands for three
years, in order to allow them time to accumu-.
late funds sufficient to buy the property at
the end Of that time. lie also stated that
white officers Of the Freedmen's Bl: eau had
told him the freedmen would never be driven
from the coast and island lands For himself,
he said, he was man Of education, could read
the newspapers, and was perfectly aware of
what was going on at Washington. Hu told
his hearers that they must not make contract

offer to buy the land, for ii was already theirs

back to Charleston and 60 to work there, and
if they could do nothing else, they conld pick
oysters and earn their living, as they, the 10y,
al people, had done, by the sweat of their
brow.
The party on board, however, paid no at
tcntion to the remarks of the negro and made
no reply. On landing they were received BY
Lieutenant CLARK, commanding company
of the 35:h U. S. G.. r. stationed on Edisto
Island. They visited the various plantations
and found them in sad condition. Most of
the once elegant mansions on the island were
cut and hacked by hatchets and axes, the
doors and windows broken out, the fruit trees
cut down and every thing wearing the most
desolate aspect. But very little land was ua-
der cultivation, the greatest extent being ter
acres on a plantation Of about three hundred
/ and fifty acrcS-Somc Of the freedmen re.
ceived the party civilly, but told the, visitors
they could not give them shelter or provis-
! ions, or harbor them, threats having been
made by the others that any colored person
known 10 have harbored white man should
have their houses burned the next morning.
The party returned to the city Saturday night
. last.

Chariestou---Ecr Merchants.

The merchants OF Charleston have i sued
card to the merchants Of the South, iii which the
arrangements, advantages and facilities are set
forth thatswiil enable the commercial men of the
South TO make Charleston the mart and centre
Of their purchases Charleston enjoys great ad
vaptages, and we see no reason why she should
not become a powerful and prosperous CONNER
cial emporium. Her geographical position is
such that her supplies are at all times easily OBJ
tained and replcnished The domestic or coast
wise aud importing trades bring to her lap the
rich and costly wares Of the finer manufacturers
as we'll as the strong and substantial. Her do
mes1e trade with the cities north and south is
very large, and the railroads viii speedily con-
vey to her the products Of the West. Her impor-
tatons are from the French, German and Eng
lish markets, from the East and West Indies,
and South America. Everything that adds to
comfort, convenience, health and prosperity can
be found there. In fancy and staple goods,
linens, aces, muslins, silks millinery, earpeings,
shoes, hats, carriages, clothing, confectionery,
wines, fruits, oils, etc, medicines, groceries, sad
dlery, hardware, crockery, furniture, hay and
grain, upholstery, tailoring, building materials,
machinery, together With the coarser fabrics for
domestic and plantation use, are always there in
full and fresh supply. Indeed her merchants are
determined to make Charleston second to no city
in commercial opalcnce, and will spare no eff
forts to make her supplies commensurate with
the demand, aEd will introduce everything Of
utility that may be added to their stores from the
different branches Of labor and manufacture, and
the ingcnousin the arts and sciences.
We need not speak here of the -urbanity, in
tegrity and punctuality of the Charleston mer-
chants, for it has become proverb, to which
many Of our merchants can testify. 49,.
We are Eersusded that splendid career of
prosperity awaits the Qneen City of the South.

VEGETABLE PRosPRcT:-T Taking advantage of
the fine weather of last week, a. universal dirt
digging prevailed, and seed we're sown by those
who were fortunate in procuring them. Others
went in on the begging system, which was better
than not at all. We belonged TO the latter class,
could not buy, aud had to beg. The crop, by
prediction, will be large, if heavy rains do not
wash the seed away, or if after getting up the
frost is not hurtful, and later, when the weather
grows warm,- the drouth and heat do not kill
them. Provided also, that hail storm does not
knock them into pi: If alt things are favorable,
we may look for an abundance of''garding ssarse"
