the planters themselves, Kind treat
ment, good wages, and, above all,
a rigid fulfllment of contracts, would
probably do more to check this un
fortunate migration than almost any
other means which might be tried.
The negroes, we believe, have no
very great desire to emigrate, and it
is the duty of the planters of this and
other Southern States to promote
and foster this home attachment by
such treatment and wages as will give
it q lasting vitality. If this be not
done, scarcity, if not famine, Will
assuredly follow throughout the &c
serted Southern States.

Our Forests.

The Richmond Timss has ti4s sol-
lowing sensible remarks:
The wealth of the South in timber
and fuel seems to be exciting the in
tercst and cupidity of capitalists both
here and at the North. We have
never properly appreciated the value
Of our forests, and the first intimation
that many of our large land holders
have had of the profits to be deprived
from their trees, has been conveyed
to them in the offers made by keen
Yankee ship p-builders and lumber-men
for the privilege Of using the axe
upon their primeval oaks and pines.
Let our owners OF forest lands be
careful how they permit their woods
to be picked and pilaged before they
are aware of their proper value. The
high price of fuel in all the Northern
cities is an evidence that the local
supply of wood in that quarter,
under the pressure Of q dense popu-
lation, IS insufficient for the demand.
1t is well known that for years the
majority of Northern locomotives
havc been burning coal, because of
the scarcity and high price of wood.
Ii there IS anything of which we
have an abundance it is wood Let
us be admonished by the efforts
which are being made to enter our
forests, that they are valuable, and
not be felled except for an adequate
consideration. 1t takes n century to
make q good tree, and an axe will de-
stroy it in fifteen minutes.

The SUPREME CorHT.-Thc Nu-
Honal Republican, the special organ of
the President, says:
The Supreme Court is Il lion in the
way Of some of the progressive radi--
calls, and they are trying to invent a
net in which to enmesh the danger
Gus animal. Yesterday very bril-
liant proposition was made in the
House by way OF lettering the Court,
VIZ: to require that, in the adjudica-
tion Of any constitutional question,
1t shall be argued before full bench,
and no decision be given unless the
Justices are unanimous in their
opinion. When Congress Will cease
to make laws except by a unanimous
vote we, the people, will consider
this proposition respecting the Su-
preme Court. In order to Get d
unanimous Court i. will be necessary
to run a new set, as the country
housewives do their candles q
mould, all alike exactly. The e's a
difficulty IN The way, however; the
Court itself will pronounce this re-
moulding of that BODY unconstitu-
tional.

The Freedmen in Fairfield.

The Ninnaboro Ne'cs of Thursday,
says:
Gen. II. X. Scott, Assistant Com
missioner CT the I'reedmen's Bureau.
lately issued . series of papers, ad-
visorily. One point was. that the
landowners here should practically
acknowledge the freedom of the
freedme1sss- ii the General could
have stdlNpon the streets of Winns-
boro fred the first of December until
the pRs$ent time, he would have
found Els. advice upon the point in
Squestionsfpcriectly superfuous in
its application to the citizens OF Fair
field.
The fact is the landowners of this
District have erred in conccdinc
moro freedom to the freedmen than
to a white man. Here is the proof
of it. In December there was a
strong effort by both Fairfield
planters and those (or their agents.
from Florida, Texas and Mississippi,
to secure sufficient labor for 1867.
The competition was fairly carried
on; so far as we know, not % single
instance occurred where the freed
man was not left entirely free to
choose employers where he preferred.
But upon the first of January hun
dreds Of contracts had been closed
between employer and laborer in the
District And what follows? Simply
this-land-owners or their agents
from other States have come and
many Of those contracts have come
to grief from the fact that the freed
men have been prevailed upon to
go elsewhere FOR higher wages.
Now we put this simple question to
all whom it may concern. If, in
stead Of these freedmen violating
their contracts, the violation were
by the employer, would
we not have the Frecdmen's Bureau
agents down upon us like duck
upon June bug?
Is there no protection to The en-
ploycr? He is compelled to forfeit
considerable portion of his income
by such 4 violation of the contracts,
while tho laborer forfcits nothing.
Gen. Scott makes another point in !
his voluntary advice 1t is as to tho /
duty Of impressing upon the freed
men respect for law and duty. Now
it happens that the way things are
in this section, law and duty
are best respected i'll their violation
than IN their observance.

WHxGE's THE N1GaER?-A radical
sheet says:
I'VE have had the Republican VIC
tory-now where's the nigger?"
Go to your store, and you get from
eighteen to twenty-five cents worth
of nigger in every yard of muslin you
buy; from ten to fifteen cents worth
Of nigger in every yard Of calico your
wife and children use; from six to
eight dollars worth of niger in each
barrel of flour your family consumes;
twenty-five cents worth Of nigger in
each pound of coffee you purchase;
from eight to twelve cents worth Of
niger in each pound of sugar you
buy to swectcn it. You'll find
small bit of niger in your box Of
matches, and considerable nigger in
your plug of tobacco. You can eat
nothing, wear nothing, taste nothing
OF have nothing that is not more or
less affected by the miserable nigger-
ism that has controlled the country
since odd Abe left Springfield for
Washington.

sentativcs, last week, by a vote of
l06 to - Il is rs follows:
Whereas, the Congress OF the
United States, at the second session

Union, become part of the Consti-
tuition, and which, by it's terms, for
ever prohibits slavery or Involuntary

Tor crime, whereof the party shall
have been duly convicted" and
Whereas, III every part of this
Union it is asserted and maintained
that, Notwithstanding said amend
ment, it is lawful to sell or otherwise
commit into unofficial subjection to
slavery persons who may be convict
ed Of offences against the law, by
AS'A''Oii WdC1COl Gel tllu 1uItIlOT III
bunals have adjudgcd free citizens of
the United States to be so disposed
Of as to re-establisl chattel slavery
for life, or for years, against the
principles Of the Christian religion,
of civilization, and of the Constitu-
tlon of the United States, which
now recognized no involuntary ser
vitude except TO the law and to the
officers of its administration now,
therefore,
BE ii enacted, etc., That any person
or persons who shall hereafter sell,

any person or persons whomsoever,

prisoned for period Of time not ex-
ceeding two years, or fined in sum
not exceeding $4,000, or both, in
the discretion Of the Court, by which
such offender shall be tried.
Eight Democrats voted for it.

A new gold field of great extent
has been discovered in the Weddin
Mountains, Australia, about $50
miles from Sydney, which tho Go
vernment officials state will give en-
ployment to a large number of per-
sons for three or four years. The
sinking is about fifty feet through
hard soil, and the holes bottomed are
yielding an average of five grains per
dish.

head, received at the time of the as

in recent period. Trepanning was
impossible, owing to its situation, on

brain, at that point, is only protected
by thin armor of flesh.

Interesting from Washington.

interesting from Washington.
The special correspondent of the
Baltimore SIN tclegraphs, on the
goth inst, the following:
That it is the firm purpose of the
destructives IN Congress to drag An
drew Johnson from the Executive
chair, can no longer be doubted bv
sensible men. The Government can
not be otherwise ovc~thrown-cxcept
through this means the Supreme
Court cannot be reachcd-neithc
can the existing State Governments
at The South be in any other way
substituted By 'satrapics appointed
by Congress. To enable the revolIi-
tionists to accomplish their ends,
such a movement is Indispensable.
The impeachment and trial as is
plainly Indicated, will be the 1nerest
mockery. / believe it was Legendrc,
who, in reply to a question as to the
justice OF condemning Danton,
asked, iii t'ign. if the Jacobins could
afford to lose Robcspicrre; and upon
being responded to that the bloody
work marked out by the revolution
lists could not be accomplished with
out the ala of tha latter, coolly told
his I"esiioncr that he had answered
his own intcrroSatory. 1T is mat
ter, said he. with which neither
law nor justice has anything to 10.
It is purely I political Question Of
State necessity;
Although this is precisely the case
with the impending impeachment,
the managers, / learn, will not dis
pense with their accustomed jug
