There can be no harvest without seed

sowing. The foundation of prosperity
in States must rest in the main upon the
products OF our fields and our work

turist ranks highest in Importance. for all
other pursuits derive much Of their vi
tality from this source. In this point OF
view it is that we throw out the obvious
suggestion OF the Importance now
of recognizing the seed-time now upon
us. From one end Of South Carolina to
the other. let seed be sown and let the
plough be magni6ed. This is q ques-

The formidable proclamation from

will do no good, and may do no harm.
There are no insurgents to disperse, but
all the soldiers who ever crossed the Po-

happy and contented, so long as igno-

The REPORT OF THE SAN DOMINGO
CoMs11ss1oNERs-A Synopsis. A de-
spntch from Key West to the New York
Herald, referring to the arrival of the
Tennessee, with the San Domingo Com
missioners OIL board, says:
Commissioner Wade finished his re-
port on Saturday last, and submitted it
t4 his brother commissioners on the fol-
lowing morning. It begins by detailing
the work of the commission, and goes on
to describe the political condition of the
country. Mr.. Wade takes the ground
that Baez is the de facto President of the
republic, and that he is in full and
peaceful possession of the government;
that Cabral is mere bandit, living in
mountain district, where he is sustained
by Hayti. The people of st. Domingo,
Mr.. Wade says, are overwhelmingly in
favor of annexation. They are described
as quiet, orderly, Industrious race.
The charges of corruption against
United States officers in the negotiation
of the treaty of 1869 are branded as vii
famous SANDERS, without shadow of
foundation. The report, which is favor
able to annexation in every particular,
closes with the remark, that "to embrace
this opportunity to plant our republican
institutions and establish civil liberty
and American civilization upon that
beautiful and productive island. thus
laying the groundwork of great, FREQ
and prosperous State, woald add another
er to the achievements of our republic,
worthy to rank with the great events Of
our history, and would be equally bcnc-
fetal to the people OF both countries
DR.. Howe endorses Mr.. Wade's report
in every essential particular. At tho va
rious meetings which have been held du-
ring the last forty y-eight hours the sub
ject has been thoroughly discussed. Mr..
White objects to tho closing paragraph
of the report; but Mr.. Wade is firm in
his determination that it shall not be
stricken out, and DIR. Howe fully agrees
with him and will sign it. Mr.. White
is writing some ideas of his own, princi-
pally historical, which he wishes to in
eert in the report. and which if inserted
will not materially alter it. The proba-
bilitics are that White will finally agree
to tho latter clause, and that the report
will be unanimous. The report Is it
stands now is about four columns in
length

Letter from Hon. G. w. Dudley.

The Charleston Ne,cs contains letter
from the Hon. O. ". Dudley, which is
pertinent to the times ana pointed in its
statements. Mr. Dudley holds that
loyal citizens need no protection in
South Carolina. They are safe. But he
admits that ''loyal" robbers are in some
jeopardy. It is relief from radical mis-
rnle that is wanted, Mr.. Dudley con-
tonds; and it is they who have feeced
our people who are now seeking "pro-
tection."
They desire to be allowed principally

The New York World, commenting

The New York World, commenting
upon Gov. Perry's recent letter, says
"WHERE THE BLAME BELONGS. s.-The
statements made from time to time in
these columns Of the causes of the dis
turbances occurring in some parts Of the
South, and more particularly in South
Carolina, are borne out by the letter we
republish herewith, written by one who
has hitherto been regarded as among
the calmeat and most practical Of the
South Carolina statesmen. Governor
Perry was one of the few public men in
that State who vigorously opposed Sc
cession. his Union record was unim
that the United States Government
stant tho war was over. When such a
iuan arraigns the policy of Governor
Scott and tho radicals in South Carroll
ia, it cannot be urged that this is an
other effort of the x-Confederates to
confuse the subject aud shift the blame
Of tho recent troubles from their own
shoulders TO those OF their political op.
pononts. Governor Perry's letter sets
forth the true condition of the State,
plundered by Northern advcnturers and
raided over by an ignorant and insolcnt
negro militia. If tho good people in
this part of the Union, who think But
ler's Ku Klux legislation for the South
is necessary, will imagine Governor of
New York or Massachusetts arming the
sasuges in their midst and refusing arms
to all who possess spark of intelligence
or dollars worth of property, and tho
consequences that are likely to flow from
such discrimination, they may, per-
haps, realize how much they have mis-
judged tho fncts in the case Under n
similar condition of affairs here VIC wonld
be very likely to feel, with Governor
Perry, that ''thcre is IL point beyond
which him III endurance cannot go, let
the consequences be what they may"

hEMOVAL OF disabilities AS 1tEME-
DY-REMARKs OF SENATOR SAWYER. In
the proceedings of Congress. the follow
ing report OF Mr. Sawyer's remarks oc-
ours:
"Without further debate, Mr.. Sawyer
then took the floor, and moved as an
amendment to the pending resolution to
include the consideration at the present
session OF the general amnesty bill lately
reported from tho Committee on Disabl-
lities. He argued that the passage of
this bill would do much to restore har-
mony and oontentment in the South.
He regretted that the Acknowledgement
of the negroes in the reconstruction laws
had not been accompanied by general
amnesty to the white people. The inHu-
ence of this policy, he believed, would
be powerfully felt in removing bitterness
and conciliating and harmonizing all the
people. Much had been said here and
elsewhere as to the inclination of the
Southern people to enter into another
rebellion, but he would assure Senators
there was not one word of truth in such
representations. The remembrance of
their manned sons, desolated hoarth-
stones and devastated fields, precluded
the possibility of their ever again enter
tanning the idea Of rebellion for mo-
ment. He did not think the disturb
ances in the South originated from hos
tility to the General Government, but
that they were inspired by disaffection
to the local governments. The reason
for this was that the men most fitted by
education and position to take part in
the affairs of the State we're excluded
from all participation therein. Owing
to this cause, men of an inferior moral
and intellectual stamp had been elevated
to public position. If it was true that
the colored members in the Southern
Legislatures did occasionally give way to
inducements to vote in particular way
for consideration, they should not be
too harshly condemned. Their former
helpless ignorance should not be forgot
ten. nor the fact that the more intelli-
gent and experienced legislators of the
Northern States were not free from simi-
lar charges. But sound policy impera-
lively dictated that all public places
should be thrown open to all citizens
alike, and oil political disabilities and
discriminating Legislation wiped from the
statute book. With respect to the Ku
Klux organizations, which, he said, were
dominant in some of the Counties of the
Carolinas, MIR. Sawyer urged that the
most complete and thorough measures be
instantly adopted to repress their lawless
deeds. But the remedial legislation
must not be drawn by tyro, but should
be wise, salutary and efficient"

Through the courtesy Of Col. Dorsey,
OF the Charlotte, Columbia and Augusta
Railroad, the ''local' was recently en-
abled to take flying trip to the Crescent
City, at very small outlay OF the
"needfu!." The railroad communication
is now complete, and the passenger from
Columbia rolls into the depot on the
levee in exactly forty-eight hours; while
the return trip is made in the astonish-
ly short space Of forty-six hours and
half-a very material decrease in the
through schedule. The railroad route
between Mobile and New Orleans is now
open. and tho trip is made in about six
hours about one-third the time required
by the bay boats. The New Orleans,
Mobile and Chattanooga Railroad, az it is
termed, is generally conceded to be one
of the best in the country-both as re-
CARDS speed and regularity, comfort and
elegance of the cars. We have no desire

OF the route. but merely to inform those
