To BRING UP LAND-Much of the soil

continual cropping without manure. Many
and many an acre of originally good land
in the State bas been impoverished by get
ting all that possibly could be got from it,,
and nothing put on in return. This land
could be brought up by commercial fcrtili-
zers, but it would bo very expensive. Green
manuring is cheaper and is equally as cffec-

been exhausted by having all vegetable mat.

fertilizers will not supply the land with tho

Ihb COLlD OOUTH.-Npy tnc SOutn
is Solid" is question discussed editorially
by the New York Sun, independent, which,
in its issue of Thursday, says: "The South.
ern States havo been kept united politically
by the aggressive course, the gross injus-
tice, and tke wilful Misrepresentation of the
Republican managers, whose scheme is to
solidify the North by exciting sectional
prejudice, and thus prolong their possession
Of power. 1t is q game they arc playing
and nothing but game"
There is much of truth in this, but tho
Suns argument is at fault when it goes on
to say: "Take away this pressure and,
allow natural causes to operate in their own
way, and it would be entirely beyond tho
power Of the Democracy to hold the South
together"
That depends. The South became solid;
not only by reason of the abuse which has
been heaped upon it, but on account of its d.
general disgust with Republican methods.
ing the South and mend its own ways, there
might be good reason to look for break
in the solid South, but neither Of these
changes is to be expected. When the Re-
publican party ceases to abuse the South it
will lose its grip on the North when it
mends its ways and begins to practice equity
and to be honest, it will cease t. be the
Republican party; its present leaders wila
desert it and there will be such an Infusion
Of new material into it MS to change it's gen.
eral composition. Under existing eoDdi!,
tions change in its policy is not, to be-
thought of, for these reasons, as the Sun,
puts it: Tho Republican organization
has been kept alive since its true mission
was ended by the use Of the public patron
age and by sectional crusade against the
South. Its leaders are now struggling
with desperate energy to hold on to tho
treasury and to the Offices four years longer.
They will not scruplc to employ any means,
however violent, corrupt or dangerous, to,
retain this power. And they have the :,
whole machinery of the government to OPP
crate WITH creature of their own in the.
White House, ready to obey orders, and
John Sherman to manipulate the returns,
with the experience Of 1876 to guide hiug'
They will, it is true, resort to any device,
after the election, if it is against them, to
uullify the verdict of the people, as they
did in 1877, but their main hold for carry
ing the election will be the sectional issue.
1t has served them most excellent purpose
this fall and they will not abandon it-es-
pecially since it is the only issue they have.
If they should carry the country on it next
year, it will b, more violently rung into
the people with each succeeding election
than it ever has been before, and with the.
increasing violence of the cry will come
increased solidity to the South. The only
remedy for it, the only way to stop it, is
Democratic ascendancy in the nation. The
people will then, under q truly bcnefcent
government, see the falsity and the wicked
ness of the issue, and the period of sectional
hate will end when the downfall of the
Republican party shall come. And not till

Two WHITE BOYS AND A NEGRO RoAs.
TED ALIVE IN A CorToN PREss.-Ellen.
ton, November 14.-Mr. L. A. Ashley, who
resides about seven miles from Ellenton,
just across the Barnwcll County line, lost
by fire on yesterday his steam saw mill, grist
mill and gin. The gin alone was running
at the time, and it is supposed that match
in the cotton was the cause of the confa.
grafton. The press for baling the cotton
was situated in the lint room. At the timo
the fire occurred league and jesse Owens,
two white boys about II and 16 years Of
age, employed by Mr.. Ashley, were in the
press, and young negro man named Isaiah
was working in the lint room. In min
ute after the cry of fire was raised the par
ties in the lint room found themselves en-.
veloped in flames and all means Of escape
cut off. The poor boys in the press could
not get out, as the doors of the press box
fastened from the outside.
Mr.. Ashley and Mr.. j. NJ. Darlington
with others who were in the gin house at
the time the fire broke out rushed to the
rescue of the unfortunates, who were now
in den Of fire. With axes they soon burst
through the walls of the house and knocked
down the doors of the press, when they
dragged out the halfdead boys and negro,
to find their clothing all burned from their
b)dics and their persons fearfully burned
A physician was summoned and did all in
his power to lessen their suffering. Jesse
Owens died in few hours after tho acci-
dent his injuries being more severe than those
of the others, who are still living but whose
final recovery is considered doubtful. In
the rescue Mr.. Ashley and Mr. Darlington
had their hands painfully burned. The
Owens boys were the only support Of wild

ity Of course the expense would be reduced
and the profits increased.
The "Clement Attachment" is simply
attaching the principle of the ordinary cot
ton.gin to the cardng machine in such a
way that the lint cotton, as soon as scpa.
rated from the seed, passes directly on the
cards and comes out in the shape of silver.
The rest of the process is the same, and the
machinery the same as in any other factory,
and there is no reason why just as fine
thread may not be spun by factory of this
kind with fine machinery Of the latest i'm
provements as can be spun in any factory.
We brought some of the silver and the
thread home with us that shows for itself.
The great saving by the "Clcmcnt At
tachnlcnt" is in doing away with the expense
of gins, gin-houses, presses, &C. The seed
cotton, just as it comes from the field, is
put right into the hopper ola cotton cleaner
and passes right on into the attachment,
and then right on the cards as stated above,
coming out in form of silver. Tho cost of
the ginhouscs in this county would be more
than enough to pay for the erection of one
of these factories in every neighborhood of
three or four farms, if the farmers would
only club together and build them. BY
dispensing with lintrooms it decreases the
risk Of fires. 1t saves the expense of bag

ing freights, storage &c. 1t would give

capitalists to bring factories to the cotton
fields, and what is better than all, the Yam
KEGS can't cheat US out of it, for it cant be
utilized at the North, as they have no seed
cotton. We arc delighted with it, and
firmly believe that il will revoutonize the
whole cotton business and enable the South
to hold the balance Of power in handling
the cotton crop. We hope at no distant
day to see thcso New Process Yarn Mills
