Railroad will greatly benefit Charleston,
which may be to Port Royal what London
is to Liverpool This Is not our view Of the

REDEMPTION, January 9Th, 1869.
EDITOR OF THE ARGUs-DEAR Suisse,
ing IN the ARGUS, lately, q report Of the sale
of hogs from Richland Grove, belonging to
Mr.. &. WhRu, and in the Union sale re.
ported from Coal Valley, belonging to
Messrs McCandless and Burns, | will tell
you what ! did with mine this season. sc
that those interested may compare notes
| sold, to Mcssrs. A. Shaw < Brother, 4s
hogs, weighed and delivered at home, On
the ID inst, for nine dollars per cwt. and
.ftty dollars premium. The lot averaged
1881 lbs. each. Whole amount of sale
$I,6l9.l5. All will admit this TO be q good
price for rs hogs. Philip Diugeldnc
MessTs. Shaws buyer, says they are decided
ly the premium hogs Of the season, and
Philip is backed up in his opinion by all
the buyers who saw them. Those AZ hogs
were what was left Of 80 shoats ! had q
year ago last October, after the cholera
swept them.
Some persons will say, "Mr. Whtsitt is
an old settler and well fixed to raise fine
stock | admit it. Are there not many
old settlers in the country who might be
well fixed, if they are not, to raise fine
stock? OF course there are. But there is
something else necessary to make farming

they will know what is going on in the
world around them, and not sell pork for S.
or 5000 per cwt, when, by holding on, they
would have gotten s. OF $3.50 per cwt-
Besides, every stock raiser and feeder
knows, or should know, that the last fatting
OF any animal pays the most profit.
Secondly, | would say to all concerned,
breed all animals from the best stock feed
well and carefully, and keep all your stock
well bedded, then you will have something
good to sell, and you ought to know how 70
sell it. Large well filled barns and grans.
rles are good thing on q farm; but large
empty barns and grsnaries on farm are
not so good.
! intended to have made the following re.

were seven steers, of my own raising, which
averaged over 1900 Tbs in Chicago, and for
which was offered $3.50 per cTt., or 1852

The officially declared majority for ,SSey'
mour over Grant in the state Of New York
il precisely 10000 votes. That is the ma
iority which will pass into history, aud which
will be recognized as final for all purposes
but those of radical gamblers who have lost
their money upon the result. The vote OF
the state was counted precisely as the vote
of New York and Of all other states has
been counted since elections were first held
in this country. No one but genuine radi,
cal would ever have attempted to 20 behind
the official court by such subterfuge as is
now pressed into service in behalf Of those
who have lost their bets. And least OF OI
wonld any one who is not tool be sile"ced
BY the alleged dictum Of that prince u gam
bers, Mr.. George Wilkes, who, ~ making
the deci sion he is said to haze made, has
undoubtedly retained in lis pocket many
thousands Of dollars which belong by night
to persons who had bet with him. Probably
Wilkes felt that, after losing SO much upon
the impeachment business, be could not
afford 10 stand another equal or greater
depreciation of this capital Chicago Times
