Z "The mill seat belonging to the Estate of
Col. Keitt, situated on Lyons creek, one of
tie besl localities fog Factory in the South
is offered gratis to any one who would erect
thereon a Cotton Factory. The dam is COM
plete, fall Of water constant, climate healthy" :"
Thus advort;ses, in our paper, the owner of
one of the finest locations for cotton factory,
in the South. Besides giving the scat, she
writes Us, that she will subscribe one bale of
cotton aud secure large subscriptions ID and
out of the State.
We kew the water power Of Lyons Creek
90 Suriicieut for half dozen factories, if pro-
perly damned. 1t lies only six miles from the
South Carolina Rail Road, in St. Matthews
Parish, and about thirteen from the Town of
Orangebury. The location is we'll situated,
and as the advertiser says, healthy.
Now all we have to say is gentlemen of
means, now.is your time. Don't let the oppor-
tunity slip in securing this desirable seat for
Cotton Factory. And don't let Orangeburg
County De outstrippcd in the race of improve
ment by any other County IN the State.
With very little effort we can have a Cotton
Factory in full operation in this County in
twelve months. Call public meeting and
Glaye the matter thoroughly investigated and
See for yourselves how easily the thing can bo
accomplished. Make:it joint stock company.
Let every man in the County take shares in it.
Zone bale of Cotton to all who are able and q
less amount for those who are not SO leeky in
wealth. We will subscribe one hundred dol
lars, and guarantee the sale of ten thousand
dollars worth of stock as soon rs tho Company
is fully organized. Will our leading men take
hold of the matter or viii they let it alone,
and tallow some enterprising Northerner to
secure the mine and fevel in its wealth We
hope, sincerely hope, that our people will wake
up, and not let this opportunity pass away.
All we want Is nerve TO make the motion,-it
will pass unanimously. Build one Factory
and others, all over the County, will spring up
like magic--and in few years Orangeburg
County will DO importing the raw material in
stead Of exporting it.
To facilitate the move we give place to the
following letter, and We would state, that our

To the Honorable Il. b. Carpenter, S'

The County Commissioners of tho said
County would most respectfully respond to an
order from this Court to 'sshew cause why they
have taken no steps towards the repairing and
altering the Jail Of this County. with view
to the security of prisoners" That they petit
toned the General Assembly at the Special
Session of 1865, to make an appropriation in
accordance with the estimates Of seven thou
sand dollars (s70OO) for the rebuilding of the
Jail of this County, as also an additional ap-
preparation of one thousand dollars (lOOO) for
the rebuilding of Court House. Tine Com
n issioncrs would also state that they have mt
had the requisite amount Of funds in their
possession to rebuild or repair either the Court
House or Jail, owing TO the fact that they
have had no power or authority up to the pre-
cent time to levy any additional taxes for such
PURPOSES. r ''E -
The Commissioners respond to the fatther.
order of the Court, That they d. then show
cause why they have made no report OF their
actings and duings as County Gommissioncrs,'

not aware any such report il, by law, required

From this detail it appears that the cost per
spindle with looms is $3.50, but safer CAL
culation would be S14 per spindle.
For one hundred spindles without looms I
would recommend a one story building one
hundred feet long aud fifty feet wide. If
looms are added. one hundred and forty feet
long and fifty feet wide For two or three
thousand spindles, let the building be two or
three stories high. each story the same in ca
pacity rs above recommended.
AS the cost of labor ana materials in diff.
ferent localities varies, refrain from giving
any estimate Of the cost OF building a mill to
contain the above machinery. Any one can
ao this with the capacity nnd cost Of fmateriaIs
given. I would remark, however, that a
building at the South, with the same cost Of
labor and material, could be erected much
cheaper than one adopted to our Northe rn
climate.
The return from cotton in well managed
mills is eighty-fve per cent. although many
return scvcnty-fve per cent. A loom in fair
operation will produce thiny-two yards per
day, running ut one hundred and ten picks
per minute, aud making cloth sixty four picks
!, REe2ds Of Yeft per itch.
The Matteawan Company have sent ma
chincry to the South for large number Of
mills, aud could probably furnish it as cheap
and at as short potice as any machine makers
IN the country; although tho best means for a
Southern company to start mill we'll, aud in
the shortest possible time, would be to engage
good practical manufacturer, and let him
put the mill in operation and furnish q eonl-
petent superintcndcnt for specified sum.
This plan has been adopted, and / believe
with SUCCESS. Respectable persons can be
found to take charge of new factories if the
locations are agreeable. Respectfully yours.

have noticed the existence Of the "A,na-
teur Debating Club" Of Orangeburg, and
heartily congratulate The young gentlemen
upon their conception and its success.
No literary Or educational institutions have
done more good to the cause of thought and
expression in bringing out tho latent talent Of
youth, and interesting the community in the
cause Of literature, than these organizations.
You will perhaps remember che touching
episodsio one Of curran's legal arguments,
when he alluded TO his association in q similar
Society with Lord Avenmore, the presiding
judge, in terms that made his Lordship bow
his head upon the desk before him, and Weep
tears Of fond remembrance.
Yes young gentlemen, the recollection OF
these scenes are the dearest that memory
cherishes through life.
When you shall enter another arena, aud
have other aud more material questionst to d6laAe,
youwill love to look back upon these evenings
a. "Spent not in toys, or lust, or wine,
But search of deep philosophy,
Wit, eloquencc and poesy."
In congratulating you let me indulge sugaes-
stion. Besidesexercses like your last exhibitisn,
you would do well to invite distinguished gentle
men to deliver literary addresses before your
Society, to which the public would be invited.
Such entertainments would be most improving
to you and entertaining to the community ut
large.
Never indeed was there time when The
cause of education assumed grander dignity
and importance! Not again on the field of bat
tie, nor for the present in the political arena,
must our race viudicatc its prerosative-=hnt
upon its intellectual prowess depends its fate
To the cause Of education and literature,
the News will be ever devoted as requisites of
q good paper, and We would invite contribu-
tions of literary character of home produc-
tion. @ ~a

BoxlSo THE oRrLDNns's EARs-somebody |

BoxiNe THE CHILDREN's Enthusiastically
writing in Good Health has the following;
"Children's ears should never be boxed.
The passage Of the ear is closed by a thin
membrane, especially adapted to be influenced
by every impulse of the air and with nothing
but the air to support 1t internally What,
then, can be more likely 10 injure this mem
brane than a sudden and forcible compression
of the air in front of itp If any ono designed
10 break or overstretch the membrane, he could
scarcely devise more effective means than TO
bring the hand suddenly and fercibly down
upon the passage Of the ear, thus driving the
air violently before it, with no possibility for Its
escape but by the membrane giving way And
far too often it does give way, especially If,
frsm any previous disease, it has been weak
ened. Many children are made deaf by boxes
in this way"
Perhaps there is no mode Of punishment
more frequently rcsorted to than this Of cuffing
the ears of children, and sending the stunning,
dizzying sensation through the head, that is
held in horrible remembrance forever after.
But, aside from the physical il-effects of such
blow, there is a moral one that can hardly
fail 10 be worse: the quick. sudden blow is the
blow of passion; the chastisement in that case
is not for correction it is for revenge. 1t is the
power of the stronger exercised on the weaker.
1t is brute force.
No enc can see and recognize this more
readily than the child. 1t is the bully who
has cowed, and the result is, and must be, re-
sentiment and hate. The power of a parent
over a child is weakened by such an act; and
that the parental influence is not lost, only
shows how strong God has made that influence
10 be.
How different from this is that real punish
ment-correction that grows of love, and that
is given from duty. The necessity for it gives
the deepest pain, and that pain is seen in the
parents faces. The punishment and the neces-
sity for it is explained to the child, and 50, too,
is the sin for which it is given. Prayer goes
with it, and exhortation. Whe can believe
that the quick-seeing child will not recognize
the love that brings such punishment?
What child will wilfully incur a repetition of
such chastisement? Even the rod itself may
be spared, as the conscientious child is brought
to penitence by the laber of the faithful pa
tent parent who comes to such labor with no
yestige of anger.

MICHIGAN LUMBER BUSINESS. The
Grand Rapids Eagle of the sth saws
All the indications point TO moderate
business in the woods the coming winter.
On the Mnskegon River the price of logs
is about $3.50 less per thousand than
they were sold at this time last year,
with the prospect of being no higher
during the winter Here and there a
lumberman is starting for the woods cal
onlaling to get out about half the logs
he got out last year. This is about the
average Of the calculation IN the aggre-
gate. Wages which our manufacturers
can afford to pay will be on an average
from $40 to $25 month. Owirg to the
comparatively small quantity of logs
that will be put in the coming winter,
help promises to be plenty and wages
tending rather downward.
In the Saginaw country the same facts
are noticed. The Enterprise has con.
versed with gentleman who has lust
returned from the lumber woods, where
he had been to make arrangements for
the coming winter. lie was much sur
prlsed at the preparations being made as
compared with those OF last winter AT
this time last season all was activity /;
this year but comparatively little inter
est seems to be manifested. On the
tributaries of the Thtabawassee not
more than half the logs will be got out
TINS year that We're last, and this will
probably apply TO the Cass and Bad
rivers. On the bay shore, less lumber.
ing will be done, but the arrangements
thus far Indicate that a good stock will
be- got out. Al the close of the season
this year number of million feet of logs
will be left in the booms that cannot be
got out, but tho exact amOpnt We are not
prepared To say. The fact that the lam.
business has been everdone for the last
few seasons has led to this oarefulness on
the rart Of lumbermen.
