The SHERMAN AND JOHNSTON TREA-
TY.-Every one can understand that
if Gen. Sherman's treaty with Gen.
Johnston had been approved by the
Administration, or by Gen. Grant,
all the States would have been in the
Union in June, 1865, the country
would have been placed on the road
to prosperity, negro suffrage and
negro equality would have been kept
in the background, and all the
troubles we have since had upon the
question of reconstruction would
have been avoided. That document
recognized as much of State rights
as the Northern people are willing to
concede, and may yet be the platform
of a Presidential party. Ex-Presi-
dent Buchanan recently had con-
versation with q newspaper cores
pondent, who says:
"He Mr.. Buchanan thinks that
the terms that were agreed on by
Generals Joe Johnston and Sherman
ut the time of the surrender, were
the wisest that could have been fol-
lowed"
Slowly the public mind will come
to the same conclusion.

Mrs. Harper, the negress, made a
speech in Philadelphia a few days
ago, in which she said the negroes
would not amalgamate with the poor
whites. We quote from the Press:
.".I do not regard our peoples con-
dltlon as the saddest in the South.
lar sadder is the condition of the
poor white people. They have all
the Ignorance of the slave, with all
the pride OF the master The 5o
not nc appear to belong to any race.

go 10 the same school with children
begging from the people thew Affected

REMOVAL OF THE COTTON TAX
We have received from Messrs. Addy,
Hall Il Co., cotton factors, of Gin
cinnati, Ohio, copy of q carefully
prepared memorial, for the removal
of the cotton tax, addressed to the
Congress of the United States. The
existing tax upon raw cotton is o
burden greater than can be borne by
this important interest at present,
and its. removal would be an act of
sound national policy. It is doubtful
whether the cotton interest could
have borne any considerable tax even
in its paternal days of power, without
building up competition greatly to
our detriment India, with her vast
territory, and nearly 100000, 900 of
people, has become formidable
rival in the cotton markets of the
world, and it will require all our re-
sources to successfully compete with
her. Under all the circumstances,
any tax whatever on cotton at the
present time would be unwjsc, and
that so great tax as 21s cents per
pound would be disastrous. The
average quality of cotton will not
give the producer over 1919 cents per
pound, at current prices; the tax is,
therefore, 20 per cent. of the gross
proceeds. or if applied to wheat,
would be equivalent to a tax of about
SO cents bushel. It must be evident
that such tax cannot be sustained.
The memorial can be examined at
the Pheni:c Office, and signatures ap-
pended.

INTERESTING TO PLANTERs-A NEW
CoRN.-The Charleston Courier, of
the 18th, publishes letter from J.
L. Jones, of Friendship" in this
State, concerning the increased yield
of new corn, called the Ohio
"a white pure flint corn. On one
quarter of al acre, he raised 341s
bushels Of corn-or 1877 bushels to
the acre. The least number of ears
on a stalk was three; the highest,
seven full-grown ears, with three
small shoots making ten shoots on O
stalk that produced corn. The stalk
is large and strong, yielding more
fodder than any corn he ever saw;
the cob, in every instance, is white,
and not larger than the middle finger.
Mr.. Jones describes the mode of
cultivating this corn, but we do not
perceive much difference between
that and the ordinary culture. How
ever, he expresses his intention to
plant the bulk of his next years
crop in the new cereal, and would
doubtless furnish any information
that might be requested by his bro
ther-planters.

IMpoRrANr JUDICIAL RESIGNATION.

IMPORTANT JUDICIAL RESIGNATION.
Hon. A. 81. Handy, Chief Justice of
the High Court of Errors of Missis-
sippi, has resigned his position, and
his letter of resignation is published
in the Mississippi papers. The cause
assigned by Judge Handy, in his ad-
mirable letter, is that the Command
ing General in that State claims the
right, and has the physical power at
discretion, to eject from Office, any
or all of the Judges of the State, to
appoint others in their places, and 70
set aside and annul the judgments of
the courts; and in short. to set at
naught the Constitution and laws of
the State, from and under which he
alone holds his Office.
He says that he has been educated
to believe that a free and untrammel-
ed judiciary, is the bulwark of civil
liberty in civil Governments. In an
other paragraph of his letter, he says
that, although the asserted right has
not been put into exercise by the
commanding officer in that State, yet
the assertion of it places the Judiciary
in condition of military duress, in
which he cannot even seem to ac-
quiesce, by acting under it. He says
that this condition of affairs, and q
due regard for the rightful powers
and dignity of the judiciary, render
it impossible for him that the supreme
Judicial tribunal of the State should
suffer such degradation at his hands,
and self-respect impels him to retire
from it, "while its dignity is un-
diminished, and its purity unsullied."

New WAY TO MAKE HORSES DRAW.
A team of two horses, hitched to o
wagon heavily loaded with wood,
stalled at hill near the city recently,
ana ali the Whipping and beating by
the driver could not induce them to
bulge peg. just as the Jehu was
about to give up the contest in de-
spair, an old country negro came up
to the horses, slipped the brides
from their heads, patted them a few
times upon the neck, with his hand,
and then giving the word, the ami
mails moved off with apparent ease
and cheerfulness, and no further
difficulty occurred during the ascent
of the hill. The old darkey stated

COLUMBIA.
Sunday Morning, October 20. 1887.

Inc lRteSG LONDON ItnaeS makcS
the announcement, that "there is an
accumulation of unemployed capital
beyond. all example and belief" in
England at the present time. The
explanation of the Times. of this
extraordinary state of financial af-
fairs, is that it is the reaction from
over-speculation--that the people
were 30 badly hurt by the speculat-
ing mania, which but recently had
over-spread the whole country, that
they are afraid of letting their capital
out of their hands.
The New York Herald, of the 18th,
takes different view of the cause of
this plethora of money in the British
Empire, which may be summed up
In few sentences, viz: that there
are no longer legitimate enterprises
enough to absorb the accumulated
capital of that country; that the
country is covered with network of
railroads, and no more probability of
enterprises Of thatkind; manufactures
have attained the limits of demand
for them, and no new capital is need
ed there; the mines, which were ex-
ceedingly valuable, and which we're
Jne foundation of British manufac
lures, have reached their highest
production, and that British states
men are looking forward even to the
time they will be gone; and that as
to agriculture, that can be carried
little further, and tt 1T there is little
or no room for the employment of
capital in that branch of productive
industry-England now being highly
cultivated, in fact, the whole face of
the country looks like garden.
Such, in brief, are the arguments
embraced in the Herald's article. to
prove that the people of England
have Nc way to invest their capital at
home. Some of the arguments used
are plausible, to say the least of them;
but John Bull has fields of enterprise
throughout the widespread domain
which acknowledges and boasts of
the rule of the British Queen. The
colonies, and India, still furnish
fields for enterprise, and consequent
ly for capital; but capital is timid,
and its owners would rather retain it
within reasonable distance, so that
they could control it in the hour of
need. True, much of this capital
might be invested in United States
securities, but then again. with it's
natural and accustomed timidity,
capital holds of, in view of the poll
tical unceI tainties in our public
affairs.
Bnt there are other investments in
this country, especially in that por-
tlon of it now known as military dis
tricts. In the territory embraced in
these districts, are rich and cheap
lands, productive mines, magnificent
water-power for manufactures, towns
and villages to be built, all wanting
capital to develop them. Political
causes cannot interfere with money
invested in lands, and if the English
capitalist does not choose to cultivate
the lands himself, he can advance
money to the planters .on their secu-
rity. Therefore, would it not be a
good idea, in connection with State
agencies to send out labor, for finan-
cial agents to be appointed, to visit
these overAowing money markets,
and by proper representations, to
induce some of that commodity to
come to our assistance? We think
1t would be, ut least, partially sue
cessful.
