An Extraordinary State of Things.

Judge T. J. Nlackey, in his charge to the
Grand Jury of Fairfield County, last week,
ordered them to investigate certain communl-
cations which recently appeared in the Winns-
boro' News, and to report whether the authors
of said communications and the Winnsboro
Ne,rs had been guilty of conspiracy under the
Reconstruction Acts of Congress. The COM
municatons referred to advised the peaceful,
law-abiding citizens of Fairfield to discrimi-
nate between certain individuals who, in the
election, had proved themselves friends of good
government and reform, and Others who had
raised the question of color, and had been Pc
culiary bitter in their conduct. The commu-
nications distinctly stated that they had no ref
erence to those colorcd men who, while sup
porting the Republican ticket, did so quietly
and without giving offence to any one. But
the authors stated that there were certain indi-
viduals who, while they had received many
favors from the whites, nevertheless were very
virulent and active in working against the
Conservatives, and in raising the cry, "Stick
to your color" The whites were advised to
remember these individuals who wanted to
have nothing more to do with white men.
That was the gist of the communications, which
distinctly declared that it was not proposed to
make any discrimination on account Of poll
tics.
1t is utterly absurd to suppose that the En-
forcement law can be perverted to the uses
which Judge Mackey would put it. The law
itself is Unconstitutional and will be so de-
clared whenever it comes regularly before the
United States Supreme Court; but, unconsti-
tutional or not, it is ridiculous to say that cti-
zens shall not decide for themselves who they
shall and who they shall not employ. The
view taken by Jud ge Mackey, if it could be
sustained, would keep the whole country in
ferment. inasmuch as it would enable any man
or set of men anywhere to drag any citizen
into the courts on the ground that he was con-
spring to deprive somebody of real or fan
cied right. One conspiracy, and one conspira-
cy only, is there in South Carolina, and that is
the Radical conspiracy to strip the people of
their property by taxation, and to make slaves
of them BY denying them the representation to
which they are entitled, and which, 6% with a ia'r

Small Industries.

FOrty-five years ago, certain small Iarnler
in one of the upper counties OF South Carollna,
settled on plantation about three miles from
the spot on which he was born and raised. He
still lives in the house he built when he was
first married. He has never bought pound of
meat of any kind, nor bushel of corn. Every
thing that has been consumed except coffee,
sugar and molasses, was made on the farm. He
raised large family-near dozen of children
all of whom he gave fair education. On
the farm there were no laborers but the white
family. They owned no negroes and never
hired any one to work on the farm or in the
house. Until the sons grew up, the husband
did all the outdoor work and whilst the
daughters were in their childhood, the wife did
all the cooking and washing. Every member
of the family was healthy and strong. The
father and mother are both still living, and al
though they are approaching eighty, they are
still vigorous and strong. When they were
married, some fifty years ago, neither OF them
had much property. Five hundred dollars
would have covered all that both owned:
Of their five sons, four received classical
education and the other was offered 1t, but pre-.
ferred to farm. The daughters were as we'll
educated as those of their richer neighbors.
To-day, all of the children. most of whom are
married, are doing we'll. There is not drunk
ara or geQCleITeu VI i0Iouio e'uio"6'So 'A'S oAN,
and the daughters all married sober, decent and
industrious men.
Now, the inquiry arises, how did a poor man
accomplish so much? We reply, he made
money and he saved money by engaging III
what may be called small industries. Every
year he made corn, wheat, oats and provender
sufficient to meet the demands of his own plan
taton and some to sell. He sold pork, and he
sold bacon and lard. He kept mare, and
sometimes two, and raised his own horses, and
sold, on an average, horse every two years
at prices ranging from fifty to one hundred
and fifty dollars. His wife made butter
enough to supply the family, and some to
sell each week. She raised chickens, ducks
and turkeys, and sold eggs and poultry. She
spun and she wove, and made cloth enough
to clothe her family. The family lived we'll.
Everything was in abundance, and everything
was good. Each year small quantity OF
cotton was made and kept until the price
would Justify its being sold. 1t was not
obliged to be sold whether the price was high
or low. If the price of cotton was down, the
bales were stored away in an out house un-
til the price rose and then sold to advantage;
and when sold, the money was all taken
home or lent out to some cotton planter to
buy corn and bacon!
The enterprise in which this farmer en-
gagged were small industries, but they proved
very remunerative The life of such fam
lily may not present a pleasant picture toev-
ery one; but to an honest man there is some
thing very captivating in it. Were all fami-
lies in our country such as the one described,
we would have q more prosperous and more
moral country.- YorEciiie Et9uirer.
