HOME INFLUENCE. Tale for NJ ers and
Daughters BY Grace Aguiar. New York:
D. Appleton & Co. 1870.
This charming novel is intended to assist in
the education of the heart, but ifs moral is ad-
dressed to mothers only, for on them, the al,-
thor believes, depends the wcll-being and hap
piness or the error and grief of childhood and
youth. We can cordially recommend this new
edition of Home Influence TO the mothers and
daughters of the South.

This is an attempt, and, we hope, success
full one, to elucdatc the first principles of gram

work both easy and pleasant. This little book
Is recommended, and we think with reason.

Population and Manufactures.

Our free trade coadjutor, the Winnsboro'
Ne,us, says that: s.Next to free trade, the
" establishment of cotton manufactures for
spinning and coarse cloths is the most
"practical measure of imm igration. If it
were not true that we have margin
"of profit of five cents on each pound In
I" our favor over all the world in this branch
"of manufacturing, we would not urge 1t.
" But we have. And it is far more feasible
to bring in remunerative manufacturing
" colonies, than scattering agricultural Ia
&c borers, which is what our planters wish.
" Indeed, get the population here, and they
"will furnish employment as we'll as iaoo-
"rers to our farmers, and voters on the
"side of better government. Now, the
/" only obstruction to this plan OF proceed
"ing is our own apathy and indisposl-
I" ton to combine with others in business ar
rangements. This branch OF manufactur-
ing business is far surer than planting,
I" and its profits come to those engaged in
s it quarterly at least, if not monthly. 1t
would flourish more vigorously under a
revenue tariff, than under the obstructive
"system protective of foreign shipping and
commerce now in vogue; but it can be
commenced proGtably Immediately, and
{" in Georgia at least, is already rapidly
I" growing branch of industry. In this mat
"ter, we obstruct ourselves. Time, how
lever; that cures all things, will cure US,
before long, of isolation from one another,
(" and of consequent ignorance, and OF pow
"erty, the fruit of isolation and ignorance. II

anc the Cuban Junta at New York should agree.
The one years service expired in February last.
At the beginning Of the year the 1unta sent oat
to Oespedes copy OF the contract with Jordan
which, tits Insisted, has been fully complied wth'
Tie Junta, in sending the letter to the President
of the Republic, stated that they would continue
to pay the sum stipulated in the original con-
tract with Jordan so long as he should remain
with the army. Mr. J. Morales Lemus, the Gu
ban Envoy, believes that the presence OF JORDAN
here at this time will be OF great service to his
cause, as he esteems him man OF ability and
character fully informed of the relative strength
of the two contending parties In Cuba.

The Time for the Convention.

Since the sanguine days of the convention,
which, in December, 1860, met in St. An
drews Hall, and, in obedience to the popu-
lar will, hurled South Carolina and, we may
say the whole South, into the mighty con-
fict which was doomed to so disastrous an
issue, this State has seen no public body as
semble so potent in its influence upon our
future veal or woe as will be the convention
which is to gather in Columbia in June. 1t
will not, properly speaking, represent any
mere political party. 1t will be, in the fullest
and truest sense Convention OF The PEo-
PIE. 1t will be the organized protest OF the
suffering taxpayers, rich and poor, black
and white, against the unbridled rascality,
corruption and extravaganza which have
made the Government of South Carolina a
by-word of reproach everywhere, and which,
unless promptly checked, threaten the State
with utter and irretrievabe ruin. Whatever,
at this moment, may be the doubts or the
fears among good men and honest journals,
it is certain that the movement which the
convention will represent must ultimately
enlist the support of every class OF our peo-
pie who have the intelligence and discern
ment to choose between the rule OF gang
of thieves and plunderers and government
of honesty and decency. Its declaration VI
principles ought to be, and we believe will
be, so broad aud liberal, that it can have abb
solutely no foes but the public robbers, who
now riot in our high places, and the army Of
their venal and degraded followers. And if
the men whom the convention shall choose
Is its standard bearers he such as to show
that its resolves are no hollow sham, or cum
ming cheat, the path is open to an easy, as.
sured and glorious victory.
Such being its origin, purposes and pros
poets, can the convention meet too early?
We think not. There should be not day,
not an hour of delay, beyond the interval
that may be necessary to allow the people of
the counties, white and colored, to cast
about for the best men to send as their
spokesmen to Columbia. Once the line of
battle is fairly drawn, the sooner the fight
begins the better for the State We court
long and active contest. Let US put our
candidates in the field, upon platform that
must command the support OF every good
citizen, and each day that passes will add to
the strength and compactness of our organi-
cation and increase the chances OF our de-
liverance. The movement, inchoate as it is,
has already struck terror to the hearts OF
the pack Of knaves, who are gorged with the
peoples money, and were busily Matching
new and vaster schemes Of official plumber;
and even their paid trumpeter makes no
secret of its alarm. Let the People continue
to move, in solid column, as they are NOV
ing, and Public Dishonesty in South Caro-
lima will meet its death blow at their hands
on the Fifteenth of June.
The Charleston daily news. [volume] (Charleston, S.C.) 1865-1873, 1870-04-30

THE Winnsboro' Ne,cS takes the broad
ground that the adoption by South Carolina
of straight-out Democratic Federal policy
will undoubtedly cause Conservative Re-
"publicans, who, though not numerous at
"present, are men of independent and ster-
"ling character, to vote with the Radicals, "
and argues that if the June Convention
"cannot give Grant at least passive sup
"port, !" it had better not attempt to ignore
Federal politics. AS we have said before,
we see no reason why the convention should
not declare that the new Reform movement
is not in opposition to Federal Republican
ism, but is temporary organization for
State purposes alone.
