A MONSTER GUN.-Thc British war
Office has issued an order for the con-
struction of 35-ton gun, and the royal
gun factories ut Woolwhich nre now en-
gagged in its manufacture. This colossal
piece OF ordnance will be, says the Eu-
ropean Mail, on enlarged specimen of the
"Woolwich gnn," which is in reality a
coil gun on the principle introduced by
Mr. Fraser, whereby the number of the
parts (as compared with the Armstrong
method) is greatly diminished, while the
total cost is materially reduced, and the
strength of the gun is not only preserved,
but increased. It is estimated that it
will require six months to complete the
construction Of the immense affair.

Death OF Jadgo A. d. Longs,reet.

Death OF Jsadge A. u. Longstrcet.
This distinguished son of Georgia, we
are informed, died at Oxford, Miss, on
the 9th instant.
Judge Longstreeet was born in the
city of Augusta, in September, 1870.
He received his academic training at the
celebrated school of the Rev. Moses
Waddell, at Wilmington, s. G. Thence
he became o member of Yale College,
where he graduated in 1913. Next he
studied law. After his admission to the
bar, he married Miss Parks, and settled
at Greeueborough, in Georgia. At this
period of his life, he wrote his inimitable
work-the "Georgia Scenes" He next
became a member of the Legislature,
and next Georgia Judge. A Con-
gressional career next aroused his ambi-
ton. But amid the heat thereof, one of
his children. .aied, and this event so
affected him, that he withdrew from the
contest, and began to seek tho Christian
ministry. In 1888, he became Metho-
dist minister, and oficiated at Augusta,
Georgia. In 1889. Judge Longstreet
was elected President of Emory College.
Afterwards, he filed the same post in
the Centenary College, in Louisiana, in
the University of South Carolina, and in
the University OF Mississippi, with which
last institution lie was probably connect
ed at the period of his death.
He was in politics State rights man.
He was busy writer in the department
of religion anu politics. Judge Long
streets humor was born, and seems to
have died in the Georgia Scenes" as
his other humorous work, Master Will
liam Mitten," is more or less failure,
and stood relatively to the Georgia
Scenes" rs does "Pnradise Regained" to
Paradise Lost"
Judge Longstreet was, III his day and
generation, man of mark. We shall,
however, leave to others, better &C.
quainted than we with his life and genius,
to attempt on analysis of his career and
character. The Augusta Chronicle and
Sentinel, from which we have taken the
facts connected with his life, pays
handsome tribute to Judge Longstreet's
memory, and gives US the gratifying
assurance that he passed from earth in
the full possession of his mental facul-
ties, and with the joyous hope of the
Christians immortality.

The Charleston Ners attaches tiis
significance to the removal by Congress
Of Gen. Buffers disabilities. It says:
"And upon this point tho action of
Congress is susceptible of simple ex-
planation. The Union Reform Party of
South Carolina is State organization
whose object is the publication of the
local administration and the election to
office OF able and trustworthy mon. No
national question, as national political
parties now stand, enters into the can
vass. Tho platform of the Union Re-
form Party is.'a recognition Of existing
laws, organic and statute, as accomplish
ed facts, and it invites all honest citizens
to unite in grand effort for obtaining
sent faithfully and equally, not whites
or black, radicals or Democrats, but all
classes Of our citizens. And Congress,
in making General Butler eligible to hold
the Office to which he will be elected,
bravcly declares that il will not stand in
our way; that it will not prevent this
people from driving into obscurity the
thieves and ruffians who now riot Mt the
State capital; that it will not embarrass
frank and sincere people in their man
Iy endeavor to throw of the weight of
unjust laws and excessive taxation, and
to bring to merited disgrace tho horde
of advcnturers who pilfer the public
funds and squandcr the resources of the
State"
The Charleston Courier says:
"The reform movement has taken n
deep hold upon the judgment and the
sympathies of the people of the State.
The press of the State have, with but
very few exceptions, given to tia cordial
and hearty support, as the only move
ment by which the regeneration of the
State can be accomplished. Every dry

rated to insure gratifying success
I'VE understand that tho campaign
here, will opened some day next week,
Dy mass meeting of the Union Reform
Party, mt which Judge Carpenter and
Gen. Butler, ms the standard bearers.
will address the people of Charleston. It
will be, we doubt not, one of the largest
meetings Of the kind ever held in this
city"

LUNAT1C ASYLUM, S. c., July 16, 1870.
Mr.. EDITOR: Some years since, city
paper published the escape of patient
from the Asylum. Though the simple
fact was mentioned, great anxiety and
distress wns produced among those who
had friends and relatives in our charge,
each supposing their friend or relative
the subject.
In order to relieve similar feelings
which may arise in the minds of those
having friends in the Asylum, when they
read your report of the escaped lunatic,
[ beg to state that the patient in ques-
tion was Draton Douglas, colored con-
vict from the Penitentiary. He left his
place Of confinement unobscrved, and
quietly made good his escape. When
missed, he was followed by two attend
ants; on hearing that he was far in ad-
vance, they returned. and other means
adopted for his arrest
BY publishing this note. you will, no
doubt, save much anxiety.

Provide for tho Emergency-A Word to
the ARrlculturist.

the Agricultural.
We cordially unite with the Chronicle
and Sentinel, of Augusta, Georgia, in ad-
vising our people to provide against a
dearth of provisions, likely to result
from war in Europe. That war must
enhance the price Of breadstufrs and de-
press the value of cotton. At all times,
we have deemed it n ruinons policy to
plant cotton to the exclusion of corn and
grain generally. Now, more than ever,
does it become us to review this policy.
Our cotempornry says:
There is time yet for something to be
done to sustain our past error, and make
us less dependent for food upon the
North and West. Nature has blessed us
with generous climate and fruitful
soil. well adapted to the growth of
grapes, small grain and root crops.
These grow and flourish here during the
entire winter. A few acres of land we'll
prepared and properly enriched, will &C.
cure full and abundant crop OF turnips,
beets or carrots for the supply of ami
mails during the entire winter and spring.
A small plat Of land, highly fertilized
aud soWn IN rye or barley, early in Sep
tenber, will furnish large supplies of
forage, after the root crops shall have
been exhausted. The long-stcm blue
collard is hardy winter plant, and will
yield more per acre on good land, we'll
prepared, than any plant with which VIC
nre acquainted. The collard is highly
nutritious for man and beast, and for
butter aking qualities, is q superior
food tor mich COWS. Let all these be
tried
We would suggest, Us suitable pro-
vision for our present situation, some
thing like the following: For farm of
ten mule force, one acre each in turnips,
beots, carrots and collards, and two acres
i'll rye. Tho turnips (rutabagu's) should be
sowD i'll drills two and-a-h half feet apart
from the goth to the last of this month,
the beets, carrots and collards, also in
drills i'll the same distance, about the
middle of August, and the rye, broad
cast, by the first of September. This
will furnish a full supply for the work
stock, cattle, sheep and hogs on au ordi-
nary plantation of the size indicated.
Mules, with very little care, can be
kept fat and in good working condition
up to the first OF April. This is too i'm
portant matter to be neglected. Great
distress, II not actual starvation, must
ensuc in some localities noXt year unless
we take time by the forelock and amply
provide against such lamentable con-
tingency. But it must he remembered
that full crops can only be made on land
well prepared and highly fertilized.
Peruvian guano or any OF the standard
super r-phosphates in the absence of rich
stable manure or cotton seed, ut the rate
OF 2O0 pounds of the Peruvian or $50 OF
the super-phosphates, on land thorough
ly plowed and we'll narrowed, will be
sufficient to secure q good crop. Let
every one try and relieve himself from
the clutches of grain and bacon specu-
| lators.

the gentle words OF love that fall in dewy
freshness on the wondering car of child

of high and holy things, wrapped in the
deep, unutterable voices of the ancient
eternities that come to the silent car Of
youth before the din and strife of the
babling world have stunned these inner

city or Augusta, Ca. October 40, 1870.
We invite special attention to the sub
joined card: ~
10 Agricuhuristsa ahd Agricultural O,.gani-
cations throughout tie country.
The necessity Of cooperation amongst
the agriculturists and agricultural Or
ganizations of the Southern States is be-
coming moro manifest every year. Pub
lie improvements, the diffusion of agri.
cultural science, and the protection of
the rights OF Agriculturalists, have not
hitherto received the attention which
su! jects of such vast importance to our
prosperity demand, and which are best
secured by voluntary association and
combined action.
The interests of the cultivators of the
great staple productions of the Southern
States demand central and united or
ganization, the object of which shall be
the promotion OF improved methods of
culture especially adapted to tho pro-
ductlons peculiar to our section-the
improvement Of our labor system, the
Encouragement of foreign emigration,
and the diversiiication of our agricultural
productions.
a general desire for an organization,
with these objects in view, is expressed
by leading agriculturists throughout the
South.
1t is, therefore, proposed to organize
IN association which shall meet annn nally
at some accessible point in one of the
Southern States, where agriculturists
from every section shall assemble
bic to deliberate in council, and fully
communicate the result of their expori-
ences, rs tending to the advan cement of
the arts of husbandry and kindred sub
jects.
It is suggested that the initiatory as
sembly convene Mt Augusta, Ga, during
the holding of the great fair of the Got
ton States Mechanics aud Agricultural
Fair Association" in October next.
In furtherance of the foregoing, the
undersigned have been appointed a joint
committee from the Cotton Stutes' Nc
chanics and Agricultural Fair Associa-
tion.'' aud from the Augusta Board of
Trade, to make all necessary arrange
ments for the first meeting, which will
be held in this city October 20, 1870.
The several State and County organi-
cations, throughout the country, are cor
daily invited to scpd delegates.
The first business before tho assembly
will be tho permanent organization Of an
Agricultural congress, election OF Oih-
GERS, &c, to be followed by free discus
sion of agricultural subjects.
The central location Of Augusta, and
it's extensive railroad connections, make
it easy Of access from all points of the
country.
Arrangements are made with the va
rious railroads to carry delegates free OF
charge or at reduced rates.
Delegates, in order to avail themselves
of this privilege, will have to present
duly authenticated certificates of appoint
ment to the Agricultural Congress.
Associations are requested to report, rs
early as practicable, the names and mum
ber of delegates they may appoint.
All communications will be addressed

What Free-Trnde Mems.

There is again, says the Free Trader,
much discussion going on, especially
among the country papers, as to the name
under which the agitation for tariff re-
form shall be carried on during the ap-
preaching summer campaign; and the
cry is again raised that the people do not
want free.trade, but merely want revenue
reform. Let us see once more.
Free-trade is that trade which is abso-
tutely free from all restrictions imposed
by government. save only such as are
necessary for the maintenance of indi-
vidual rights and the preservation Of
public order.
In this absolute sense free trader is
opposed to the practice of levying any
portion of the national revenue by means
of tax on trade in any shape or form.
In this absolute sense free trade
means simply opposition to certain
method of raising revenue.
The raising of revenue by govern
ment in amount sufficient to supply the
Legitimate needs of the public treasury is
one of the most essential and useful du-
ties Of government On this subject all
men are agreed. On the methods Of
raising this revenue good men may differ;
but no one denies the right and the duty
OF government to raise by equitable taxa
tion the necessary means to support it.
self. Free trade does not question this
right; it only questions the policy of rails
ing any portion Of those means by tax
on trade, by o tax on the importation OF
foreign goods, by the institution com
monty known as the tariff. Hence in the
broadest and truest meaning of free
trade, it is simply opposition to the sys-
tenn Of raising revenue by means of q
tariff.
AS long as the tariff System OF collect
ing tax on foreign goods was used only
for the purpose Of rnising revenue, the
number OF free traders was comparative
ly small, their opposition light, and their
weight and influence limited. Their
opposition was based upon scientific
assumption, extremely difficult of proof,
questionable in practical results, and not
shared at this day by some of the most
advanced economists.
But when the tariff, the practice of
collecting tax on foreign goods, be-
came Systematically perverted to entirely
different purposes, to the supposed de-
velopment Of certain interests, to the
advancement Of one occupation over all
others, to the benefit of one locality ut the
expense of the whole country, then an
opposition of Il very different character
arosc-an opposition not to raising rove
nue. by means OF q tariff, but an opposi-
ton to the pcrversion of the tariff to
