Recollect tina, the first weed pulled

THE OTHER SIDE OF THE PIC
TURE.

Ne have recently published a
number of articles depicting the OPP
pressed and almost ruined condition
Of South Carolina under negro do
minion. But as the darkest cloud
may have a silver lining, so we are
glad to find that the gloomy social
darkness which has so deeply settled
upon the Palmetto State is not with
out its ray of light. The Charleston
Ne,oS insists that the State should be
represented in the Cotton States Con-
vcntion to assemble in Augusta and
says:--
This State has been, unjustly and
unwisely, put under the ban, and
mainly through the ill,imed Shrek
ing of her friends, the impression has
gone abroad that this State is in such
a condition that life is not safe and
property is insecure. The truth is
bad enough; but it is not as bad as
outsiders believe it to oe, and the
way to correct false impressions, and
cause the facts to be known, is 10
mingle freely with the representa-
iives of our States whenever tho OPP
portunity is given for SO doing
Reputation counts for much. There
is no telling how much South Carolina
loses by continued croaking. The
State is improving in business and in
solid wealth, despite the extravagant
cost ofthe government, yetin Europe
and in the North and West the State
is spoken of as though it were doom.
ed to instant destruction, and had
already filed petition in bankruptcy.
South Carolinians should go into con-
ventions with their friends and neigh
bors upon every proper occasion, and
the effects cannot fail to BIO beneficial
in spreading abroad the knowledge
of our actual condition, and the prov
ing that South Carolina does not
mean to be counted out whenever
and movement is proposed which has
for it's object the development Of the
South, or the knitting together of the
whole country in the bonds Of amity
and peace.

rHr PLANTATION.

The February Number Of this ex
celIent Agricultural Monthly presents
a great variety Of subjects and all
discussed with marked ability. Mr..
Jno. II. Dent opens the Number with
an interesting article on the impor-
lance of cultivating grain and grass
in Georgia, as well as Cotton, and
our ability to make such crops re-
munerative. The next most interes-
ting article is one from C. w. How
ard in reply to DR.. Pendleton's mis-
representation Of the experiments OF
George Vile on the French expert
mental farm. 1t is ably written and
will serve to bring into further notice
in the South the experiments made
under the auspices Of the French
Government with such remarkable
success.
We have also from Mr.. Howard
an article on the "Richland Farm"
near Nashville, which presents an
interesting example Of successful
farming. 1t is farm Of some 1900
acres, fenced with stone, plank and
rails at cost OF $4,000. The Barns
for horses, cattle and sheep cost over
$4,000. The land is nearly all in
grass with occasional sowing OF rye,
MANFRED, to help out the pastures.--
The money product has all been
made from the sale Of horses, cattle
and merino sheep. From the latter
stock alone, last year. the yield was
$500, and since the war the owner
has realized from bis stock raised
and sold $4,000. Three hands are
regularly employed to manage this
farm with adequate assistance in the
harvest season. "Will the Cotton
planter asks Mr.. Howard, with
great gang Of negroes, who eat their
heads off annually, think Of this as.
founding fact"
Another article, on Agricultural
Astronomy, presents the advanced
idea Of a Moving Universe, the revo-
luton Of which is stated at 25,800
years. The writer hints at the pos
sibility that the extinction of life in
a former Geologic period may have
occurred from climatic changes Incl
dent to this vast orbit. If he is right
and the earth travels in this revolu-
ton at the rate of $4,000 miles
every twenty four hours it is about
time for us to be thinking of another
Geologic period of fossil remains.

WHAT SAVINGS BANKS GAN DO

WHAT SAVINGS BANKS CAN DO
VIM. w. Edwards, Esq, the Treas
urer of he "Dime Savings Bank" of
Fulton street, New York, relates the
following very interesting fact in re-
lation 10 one of the depositors of that
bank -
~. H., then fifty five years of age,
made deposit of twenty-five cents
in this bank in December, 1860, and
and in 1861, he made three deposits
Of | o and two of 80 cents, amounting
10 dollar 10 cents in all. He was
a mason by trade, but 80 given to
his cups, that he lost his situation,
and his family WAS broken up. He
joined tho 4Sth regiment, N. Y. s.
v, for three years, and, in the fall
Of that year, went down to the front.
Early in 1862 ho began to remit,
through his lieutenant, from Is to
so dollars at each pay day, and at
the expiration of his enlistment, he
had balance of 800 dollars to his
credit, at the bank. He now applied
himself to his trade, and on the LIST
of July. 1869, had l,40o dollars to
his credit. His eldest son had gone
to Kansas, and had made purchase
of land on the Pacific Railroad. To
him the father sent 5000 fer invest
ment. A tract of 40 acres Of village
property was purchased. Ia few
months the old veteran followed. -
He has now, he writes me in May,
1870, $50 acres OF land, 100 acres
of it fenced, 20 acres of good winter
wheat, and % acres Of other spring
crops; and everything about him is
beautiful and hourishing. He has
800 dollars yet in bank. He writes
me fora spy glass that he can carry
in his pocket, and inspect his farm,
far away from his work-6elds--
which have sent him by mail.
"What au example for young me-
chanics and laborers. He is just en-
joying at sixty five what he might
have had at twenty FIVE, had he kept
sober and deposited his money in
savings bank"
This is only one instance among
thousands. Parents should train
their children to save their spennies
and deposit them in these banks
and we believe the day is not far
distant when school teachers and
others viii often refer to savings
banks as among the educational in
situations in the conntry-teaching
economy, thrift, refinement, aud in
dependence, as well as self.respect
and morality.

A HEAP OF GOLD.

A late Australian paper has the
following account of the discovery
of mass of gold: There has been
another large yield of gold in one OF
the wonderful Hill End mines
Messrs. Beyers and Holterman's
claim. Our correspondent thus
chronicles the event: "On Friday
night last, the largest and richest
specimen this colony has produced,
| suppose, was taken from the claim
of Beyers and Holtermaa. Il is
really q wonderful one--a slab Of
gold. It's weight is about 81 cwt. |;
and | believe | am within the mark
in saying that there are 2 cwt. of
gold in it. l went, together with
nearly the whole town, to look at 1T.
The claim was like fair, and a reg
ular stream of people threaded the
steep packing tracks leading Gown
TO il. On Sunday it was hung up
for exhibition, and during the day
hundreds, including many of the tar
sex. went down to see it. At the
same time that ] went to look atthis

The monster is not alone in his glo-
ry; he has fellows bigger and richer

form part of lode rather than a

ing-nothing but mundic and a slate
