that you will do What you can for

is to carry out the resolution Of the
taxpayers convention on this sub

unless e,rtain inducements arc offer

and money freely to get the immi-
grant, and grows rich by it. South
Carolina ihust do the sa me or .hmi
grhtion to the state is at an end, tho
crisis at the North being over. We
should offer our lands in alternate
sections free to tE- ,.rn,grant, having
r!..:s &c the same in New York So
the people can see it. We should also
have money to work with in Europe ,
and for this purpose the county com
missioncrs were appointed. If you
will exert yousclf to got land donated
send me description of it, and l
will forward it to its proper dcstina,
tion. You should aIso make sucl
col lections Of money as the people are
willing to give, mud forward TO me-
Immediately So it can DC applied te

For this crop, it will of course be i'm

Commissioners, although required to
give monthly reports, he ruled him
to show cause why he should not be
indicted for official misconduct at
next term Of court. In general
terms, Judge Nlackey caused u pbw.
'erful rattling Of dry bones in that
rotton county, the cradle of our Rev.
crend young Governor. For this
conduct, he received a vc,y ,hpai.
'meutary letter from citizens Of oil

thcm on the situation. This he wil
do at .sou'e tiwe in May.
We do not know whether it is cx-
actly The thing to compliment any
iujivilu lul ror loius. his duty. Still,
human nature is So frail that bu rtw
individuals succeed in doing exactly
what is rieht, and the average South

fragile in chlractcr that to do right

A Word to the Farmers.

All signs poin, to the fact that the
present Year will be one Of t;,c great
est scarcity. Alre,dy, although the
crops have not been planted, money
has almost entirely disapi cared aud

aud p:oyisi,n: cf all k; ds are held
at prices aim ,st ruinons. u long

anxious eye is turned towards au.

Two things are incumbent upon
the farmers. The first is equally
Applicable to diiiduals of every
class and calling. All unnecessary
expenditures must stop, and actual
needs must be supplied with frugali.
ty.
The second thing is to change the
plan of cropping. Cotton is no long
er king. ~ larger crop Of cereals
must be raised. The poll cy of pur-
Chi 81 g all supplies is disastrous, Us
unpaid store accounts, and mortgage S
!! CO.! !;eus in the Clerks Office will
testify. Raise something to cat at
home. We are familiar with the old
argument that cotton will bring more
money from given area Of land than
corn will. But tinoro =ce other facts
to be considered. inc denta aHn""---

"~".~. '.-~s~'~. ."~y 20 Ine 1n'lacy
of the arglmcut in favor Of cotton
We know that i. is q fallacy. Com
pare the cotton planter with the
fa,mcr who raises his own provisions.
The former may realize more money
but he is constantly borrowing or
giving mortgages or liens, and is al.
ways hard up. The latter has his
barns and granaries filed, hi, stock
arc all fat and healthy, he owes no
man anJ thing, and has little cash
to loan to his needy neighbor. In
our own County of F~itield, We find
the prosperous farmers raising their
own provisions and the NEEDY ones
clin.iug to cotton. Hay OF snperio o,
quality can be raised here, and yc,
car loads lire continually coming ir
from North Carolina and other States
and taeiug away our money. The
quantity Of flour ard meal brought
brought here from St Louis and Au
gnsta is marvellous. Local mills hav,
almost ceased running.
Our farmers must bc self.sustair-
ing. Then, all the money realized
from cotton will be so much surplus
If nothing but cotton is planted
this year, thero will be famine in tn
County in 1875. Merchants are
"earrying oyer' farmors now. They
will not be able to do 50 again. Pre-
pare, then for hard times by planting
more grain and less cation.

Take. Back Seats"

One Of the most significant signs
of the rcvnlsion of feeling the North
is undergoing towards the "fricnd and
brother" as politician, is the car
toon in tho last Uarpcr's Weekly
from the pencil of Mast. 1t is sug-
gcstcd BY an extract from one Of tho
last letters written by "Q"i Firc,'
to the News and Courier, in which
an account is given of the way in
which our Legislators vilify and abuse
each other. Our readers will re-
member this scene. The cartoon
represents "Columbia" in tho Speak.
cr's chair. Two sable SJolons in
Nasps most exaggerated style arc in
dulging in rcpartcc of rather per-
bonal character, regardless Of "calls
to order" At lnct "Golumbia" tells
them in disgust to "takc back seats"
This cartoon would mean nothing
IN Democratic paper. But Har-
rcr's Weekly has ever been most
violently partisan journal, bcmcaning
the South, and cxtolling the negro
whenever an opportunity offered
When tho lIarpcr's get sick of this,
we may reasonably suppose that the
world generally is pretty much dis.
gustcd.
This spirit of disgust augurs we'll
for the future of South Carolina.-
The colored race is rapidly running
itself into tho ground by suffering
itself to be dupcd by every unscru-
pulous deuagogue that pandcrs to its
prejudice.
Its only hope is to throw aside
present ieaaer5 and make a new deal.
We advise our colorcd friends to
heed the ominous muttorings of hon.
est people everywhere, and to save
themselves while they can.
Mil(arl Fillmore and Charles Sumner.
a few days since, ex-Prcsidcnt
Fillmore brtathcd his last. lis
remains had not been consigned to
mother earth, before a telegram was
sent through tho land announcing the
death Of Charles Sumner. Thus
within few days Of each other, two
distinguished citizens have passed
away.
MIR. Fillmore had been living in
retirement in New York. lie and
Andrew johnson were tho only living
cA.presid 1t is IL curious co.
incidence that each was elected Vice
President, and succeeded to Office at
tho death respectively Of Zachary
Tay lor and Abraham Lincoln. Mr..
Fillmore WAS q gentleman of intcgri
rlty aud honor.
Charles Sumner leaves behind him
a national reputation. Ills name will
probably live long after those Of his
eontouporayic arc buried In Oblivion
lie was possessed of magnificent
talents, and an cni less store of learn.
ing. lie had ono hobby-cmano;pa-
tion-and this made him an Object OF
hatred to tho South. But when he
saw lis dreams realized, he was will.
ing to bury the batchct and live in
peace with his former enemies. His
resolution TO cxpungc the names of
battles fought during the WAT from
tho Regimental flags was an evidence
of this disposition.
In his death the colorcd race loses
an able champion. Greeley and
Sumner both spent their lives in
Efforts to amclloratc the conditio of
the negro, and both lived long enough
to see the object Of thoir cares evince
the basest ihsratitudc. While
