" VIC publish BY permission tnu -.
letter from Rev. A. Ransom, of North Caro-
lima, formerly Of this County, which gives
at length the benefits derived from the
change of the fence system in parts of North
and we hope the friends and opponents of
the proposed change will give it their calm
and candid perusal;
HUNTERsvILLE, N. c., July 9, 1877.
b. +. Crdyton, Esq:
DEAR SIR--Your request through my
brother, William Ransom, for my "obsorva-
tions and experience in the matter of fenc-
ing up the stock" has been duly received.
Feeling deep interest in the welfare of
South Carolina, my native State, l hasten
to reply. This is the fifth year that have
had an opportunity TO observe the working of
the system, and the third that have, been
experiencing its benefits. They are, lam
fully persuaded, as follows:
1st. 1t saves q heavy expense.
End. 1t brings valuable land into cultiva,
ton.
Bird. 1t improves land and enhances its
commercial value.
4th. 1t is favorable TO renters.
9Th. 1t enables men to retain small un.
timbered farms, and others to obtain farms
for the first time.
9Th. 1t promotes tho cultivation of the
grasses
7th. 1t facilitates tho improvement oi
stock.
Now, each Of these points propose to
illustrate
| (1) My interest in land comprises one
hundred and fifty acres. 1t had through
it q long lane aud short one. While VIC
were canvassing for the stock law, otter
said would rather have it than present o.
FIVE hundred dollars. But now 60 ny
upon that. Were it possible for no one t
be affected by it but myself, l would not g
back 10 the old system Tor one thousand dol
lars That will sound extravagant to many
no doubt. But consider this besides m,
present pasture lot fencing two thousant
panels of new fence would be required
But would one thousand dollars build tha
and leave sum whose interest would b
sufficient to keep it in repair from year t
, year? reckon not. Then, why should
be willing to go back for the consideration
of one thousand dollars? Thus, in financia
point of view, regard the change as bein
practically worth to me and my children q
least seven dollars per acre on our land

it at all we would have been kept in col

Fortunately, the majority Of the eight hundred

CONTESTED ELECTION CASES.
Caucus of Democratic Senators.
SPOFFORD AND KELLOGG SUBMIT 9TH
Err STATEMENTS.

WASHINGTON, November 10. At the adjourn
ed cacus of democratic senators this forenoon to
further consider the ACCESSIBILITY Of moving for
action OF the Senate to discharge the election COM
mittee from the Louisiana and South Carolina
contested election cases, aud thus bring them i'm
medlstely into the Senate for action, the seuti-
ment seemed in favor of such q course, but In
view of the fact that the ting Of the elections
committee was concurrenty in progress, the eau
Gus took no action except to instruct Senator
Thurman to confer with the democratic members
of the committee and report to future meeting
subject to his colleagues.
AT meeting of the Senate committee of eec-
tons, Spofford and Kellogg submitted statements
which are substantially the same as those already
published, aud ordered printed.
Salisbury made a motion that the committe
proceed at once to consider the credentials of j
b. Eustis of Louisiana. After some discussion il
was agreed by party vote to lay the motion on
the table until the subcommittee, ,Wadeigh and
Merl imon, report As to the probable length of
time required to finally dispose of the Spofford-
Kellogg case. Adjourned until tomorrow.

The West Mt. Vernon Reform Club enjoyed the
rare treat on Saturday evening last of listening to
an instructive interesting and scholarly lecture.
IAN Evening with the Ancient Egyptians" bv
George &. Hopkins, Esq, of Mt. Vernon. The
weather was all that could be desired, the house
filled by an attentive and appreciative audience,
anu the speaker appeared al his best For an hour
and quarter we seemed to live in the DAYS Of the
Ptoonl les and the Phsros-to see the Nile with
no apparent cause suddenly overflow its banks and
spread over the country. then rs suddenly r.cede
leaving It's rich deposit of sediment as fertilizer
TO see the aborer he turned up with his hoe the
rich mould and put in the seed; to see the harvest
gathered aud the unmuZZed OK treadng out the
corn; to 20 with the bridal party TO the marriage
feast. or with the lcted ones to the funeral cere-
monies, and TO he introduced to the embalmed
corpse as we sat with him at the table to the
hundred thon,snd men as they toiled beneath that
cloudess SKY for hundred years upon the great
pyramid whch IN silent and majestic grand, ur
stands as a monument of a civilization now buried
in the dust Of ages. We would fancy ourselves
ming ling in religious ceremonies, Discussing the
affairs of state, dining with friend, or worship
ing the sacred crocodile.
But we suddenly awake to the reality that five
thousand years have rolled on since the
graphically portrayed scenes were a reality, aud
bu, for the cabalistic characters and scuptured
thoughts left upon imperishable marble the very
existence OF the ancient Egyptian would be I'M
known. But Gods works are enduring. The
same laws control the rise and fall of the Nile to-
day rs then; and to-day the peasant plants his
wheat and his barley, his peas and his cncumbers
IN the same iich mold. and the same sun natures
the precious fruit But report can do Justice
to the lecture. We wish everv boy and girl in
Name could hear it. How much better for the
than the cheap, lovesick, sentimental trash which
is so largely and eagerly devoured.
