I first entered the State with great reluctance
on my part, in the month Of July, 1864, having
been made prisoner Of war while serving The
Government of the United States at the bead
of my brigade in battle. My capture was with
out dishonor to me, and the fair and honorable
treatment that received In The military prison
at Charleston reflected honor upon my captors::
MY subsequent assignment to the command
of most important bureau of the Government
in this State, and the manner in which adj
ministered its delicate and arduous duties, as
we'll as my election to the office of Governor
for two successive terms by the unanimous vote
of the Republican party, are matters OF current
history. frankly admit, as now clearly per-
ceive, that have committed many errors IN
the administration of the State during the past
four years; but they have been errors that any
man would have committed, unless he sP-
preached nearer infallibility of judgement than
usually falls to mortal lot.
am content to have the motives that have
governed my official conduct weighed and de-
,termined in the scales of the public judgment,

PALMETTO PAREa-A VALUABLE DIscovE.
RY.-Mr. Henery Banks, Of Atlanta, has, for
the past two or thfee yysaS Been experimenting,
upon palmetto and uiregrass for making paper.
Last Hugpst,he shipped 5000 pounds to pa
per per mill in Philadelphia, and went there him
seif ana witnessed the whole process of con-
verting palmetto leaves into paper, which
proved a greatersuccess than his most sanguine
hopes had anticipated. He has an affidavit of
the superintendent of the paper mill, where it
was tested, which says that palmetto paper is
superior to that made of wood, straw or rags,
both in texture and, cost of production, and
will yield profit of Fifty per cent. to the man.
ufactarer. Mr.. Banks confidently believes that
even greater profit than fifty per cent. can be
realized-the raw material costing from one-
fourth to one-half cent per pound, while rags
will cost four and half, and not make as good
paper as the palmetto.
Mr.. Banks is organizing stock company to
introduce the manufacture of this paper into
Georgia: The proposed location of the mill is
on water power in Lowndes County, in the
midst of palmetto growth of immense capacity,
sufficient to make 10000 pounds of paper per
day, and sufficient quantity of this plant
grows within an area OF ten miles to supply

ELECTION OF UNITED STATES SENATOR

States Senate FORTH term of six years, begin
ming March 4, 1873, to succeed John Pool, the
present Radical incumbent. Heisa gentleman

appoint those Republicans who contributed so
largely to his election. A dispatch from Ra.
leigh to the Wilmington journal says:
Judge Merrimon assured me in person, in
conversation with him few moments since,
that while he felt very grateful personally, for
the confidence and respect his political oppo-
nents had manifested for him in the vote they
had given him, his political status and party
relations remained unchanged, and that his
political integrity was in no wise compromised.
lie assured me that he bad had no communi-
cation, whateyer, direct or indirect in person or
through others, with the Radical party or any
mneHibers thereof, in relation to the senatorial
contest, that could affect his party relations;
that if he considered that his election compro-
missed his political principles, he would not ac-
cept the position. When the members of the
Republican party voted for him, they did so
knowing his past record and that he was still

NEVER AaAIN.-There is a touching pathos
about doing even the simplest thing for the
last time It is not alone kissing the lips OF the
dead that gives you this strange pain. You
feel it when you look your last upon some scene
which you have loved-when you stand in some
quiet street, where you will never stand again,
unless, indeed, you come back some day to the
old 'haunts," and wander among them an un-
welcome ghost
The actor playing his part for the last time
the singer whose voice is cracked hopelessly,
and who, after this once, will never stand be-
fore the sea of upturned faces disputing the
plaudits with fresher voices and fairer forms

mon-those all know the hidden bitterness OF
"never again."
How they come to us on birthdays, as we
grow olderl Never again young-always near
er and nearer to the very last-the end which
is universal, the "last thing" which shall fol-
low all the other last things and turn them. let
us hope, from pains to Joys.
We put away all boyish toys with an old
headache. We were too old to walk any longer
on our stilts-too tall to play marbles on the
pavement. Yet there, was pang when We
thought we had played with our merry mates
for the last time, and life's serious, grown-up
work was waiting for u.s.
Now we do not want the lost toys back. Life
has other and larger plays for us. May. it not
be that these, too, shall seem iu the light Of
some far-off day as the boyish games seem to

Cotton Manufacture in the South.

A correspondent writes to the New York
Journal of Commerce some highly interesting
facts relative to cotton manufacturing in the
South. Referring to the Langley Mill, near
Aiken, S. c., the writer says:
A manufacturer of cotton yarns from Man
chester, England, after looking at our books,
told me we manufactured cheaper than they
did by about the difference in value OF our cnr-
rency and gold-that is to say, 42 cents Per 10.
Among the advantages enjoyed by the South
over the North in the manufacture OF cotton
may be enumerated the following:
1. Here the raw material is produced, and by
working it here various expenses incidental 10
its transportation could be saved-snch as
profits made by those who invest capital, time
and labor in moving it from place to place
insurance during transportation; by samples
and stealing from the bales.
2. Experts claims that in our warm southern
cline cotton works to better advantage as high
as ten per cent.
8. Reclamation on false-packed and damaged
cotton is direct and easy.
4. Freights on manufactured goods are less
in proportion than On bulky aud hazardous
bales of cotton. Yarns can be delivered IN
New York from this vicinity for 60 to 80 cents
per cwt.
: 5. Abundant supply of operative labor at low
rates and consequent exemption from strikes.
Northern superintendents of Southern mills
admit the superiority of our factory hands
(whites) and the ease with which they are con-
trolled. The average wages paid at the Saluda
mills is $l42 80 per annum.
6. The milduess of the. climate enables the
operatives to enjoy larger proportion OF com.
forts on q given amount Of wages. In cold
climates larger proportion of carbonaceous
food is requisite, which costs more than farina-
ceous food, nor do the, houses for operatives Re-
quire to be so expensive as in colder regions.
lumber of the best kinds cost only Si2 or Sf4
per M .yrT The shoft'wintefs require less ituei.
Land is cheap, and each household can hage
its garden, COW and pig pens, :; g.
z. There is home demand for the goodcssV
the larger country stores keep supplies OF yarn
for sale as regularly as they do sheeting. ,ifp
l. 8. By purchasing eeed cotton from the Piail-
ters and ginning it at the mill the cotton y IN

packing the cotton, baggfng, ties and haaating
would be saved; as we'll as the expenses ofrun-
ton undergoes in different ways has been esti-
mated from one-tenth to one-eighth OF the
bale.
Could the entire crop of cotton be converted
into yarns at the South and shipped abroad in
that form it would add $l50,000oOO annually
to the wealth Of this portion Of the United
States. Foreign mills would adapt their ma
chinery to working up the yarns instead ofithe
raw cotton =. II, but one quarter of the crop

porated Into the organic law of this nation.
Springing from the toiling millions Of the
people, he never forgot his origin, but was al-
ways amid his we'll deserved wealth and emin.
ence, the outspoken champion of the poor and
oppressed, and Of the rights of labor No man
was more uncharitable in speech than he, and
never was man more charitable in deed. Pos
sessed of hardy and rugged honesty which the
breath of SANDER dared not assail, even in the
fierce heat of political canvass distinguished
for its bitter and malign personalities, he never,
where principle as he saw it was involved, sac
rifced the right to the expedient, but always
preferred, in maintaining his convictions, rath-
er to break than to bend.
His name will be national property, and will
continue for many generations to reflect lustre
upon his country, while the colored race whom
he aided so much to relieve from chattel and
civic bondage, will, in gratefully cherishing the
memory of his noble service, forget his one
grievous fault.
In conclusion, fellow citizens, I would do in
Justice to the impulses of my heart should
fail, on such an occasion as the present, to
recognize and gratefully acknowledge the SER
vices rendered to the cause of free government
in South Carolina by my distinguished prede-
cessor. First entering the State as prisoner
of war, whose command was defeated without
dishonor, he was duly exchanged, after long
confinement in military prison, and at the
close of hostilities in the field returned, with
promotion to the rank of major general of the
United States Army to administer the affairs
of an important bureau of the government of
our State. In that capacity he organized the
labor system on free basis, protecting alike
the rights of the employer and the laborer.
His administration as Governor of South Car
olina is before the country, and by the country
it will be judged. Whatever that judgment
may be, I but express the opinion of those who
know him best, when say that he has endeav-
ored to discharge the duties of his high Office
in the interest of the party that elected him
and for the welfare of the people of the State.
With solemn appreciation of the grave re-
sponsibility imposed upon me in the perform.
the important matters involved in the situation
before us may bring about the utmost concert
