speak well for this new theory.

Preparation for Farming.

Specifically, says The Western RurG1,
is an American fault in Incorporation of
the individual for the duties of life Our
colleges as a whole are not thorough
enough in their courses of instruction +;
our young men enter upon the practice of
the so-called learned professions with a
very imperfect preparation. Law schools
and medical schools are annually turning
out members of these professions, in
armies, who are almost as unqualified for
their business as they would be for d
business that they had never even thought
of; and as to the farm, no preparation at
all is thought to be necessary among a
very large class. Our agricultural
colleges ana schools have done something
to correct this error, and so far as they
have devoted themselves to the accom-
plishment of the legitimate object for
which they were created-the making of
competent farmers. they are worthy of all
commendation. By connecting education
with labor, and seeking to have them go
hand in hand, they have been of meal
culable benefit. But while these institu-
lions have been doing great deal in this
direction, the agricultural press of the
country has done much more, and con-
sidering them as a real and thorough
educator, the farming community owes it
to itself to see that agricultural papers
are we'll sustained. But more than any
thing else, perhaps, necessity in the older
portions of the country has been the
partial cause of an increase of into lligence
in agriculture. The East has, to some
extent, felt the needs which the farmers
of England feel. The natural fertility OF
the soil having been exhausted, and the
eastern farmer being compelled to COM
pete with those on the vast prairies of
the west, it has been found necessary to
till the soil more scientifically; or with
the lessons which experience has taught
many have come west and have been
growing constantly in intelligence. What
ever the casues may have been or may
now be 1t matters little so long as it is a
| fact that our agriculturists are doing
their work more intelligently than for
erly, and although our progress is by nc
means as rapid as we could desire, prog.
ress is nevertheless being made, and il
we could only cause the fact that agri
culture is science made up of various
sciences to be generally recognized, we
should have done enough to elevate the
farm to its proper position. Then s
young man contemplating the business
OF agriculture as life.work would frs
seek to qualify himself, as he would i
he had determined to enter upon pro
fessional, or mercantile career, and will
the generally good common practica
sense which characterizes boys AND
young men who properly appreciate thu
farm, they would no doubt more thor
oughly prepare themselves for thei
business than young men who enter up
on the prosecution of other kinds OF bust
ness usually prepare themselves.

AS in our busiest and most populous cities
of the seaboard and interior, Hostetter's Stom-
ach Bitters is prominently popular. Wher.
ever civilization plants its foot on this CONT
nent, thither the great tonic soon finds its
way. Nor is this surprising, for it is the med
icine of all others best adapted to the wants OF
the Western emigrant, be he miner or agricul
turist. 1t is an incompatible remedy for the
diseases to which he is most subject, and which
are liable to be brought on by the change of
climate, hardship, exposure, unacoustomed air
and diet, and miasmatic atmosphere and wa
ter. Among these are disorders ofthe stomach
and bowels, rheumatic ailments, and malari.
GUS fevers, for all of which Hostetter's Bitters
is certain specific. A course of the Bitters be-
fore departing for the new field of labor, or on
arriving, will have the effect of preventing the
evils for which it is such signal remedy.

New saw M acllfIles

of some improvement on the old and laborious

bodies of trees into any length desired for saw
logs, slaves, rails, stove wood, etc. This long
needed improvement has at last been invented,

the way, is one of the greatest of American in
ventors We see from our exchanges that the
editor of the Ohio Farmer. also the editor of
the "a O. Review" of Cincinnati, called Mr. Giles
personally to see the marvellous saw machine. They
both p onounced 1t a machine of great merit. The

The result Of the Potter investigation
of the Presidential election has been far
from satisfactory to the Republicans, for
while it has shown that certain Demo
crats were willing to pay the Returning
Boards Of Louisiana, Florida and South
Carolina, in order to secure fair count,
it has also shown that the leaders of the
party, from Mr.. Tilden down, spurned
the effort and refused to permit it to be
consummated, while on the other hand
the Republicans in some of these States
have been shown to have purchased the
Returning Boards almost beyond a rea-
sonable doubt. The evidence has been
accumulated from many sources, and
seems to all impartial observers to be
clinched by the fact that the President
who secured the Office through the frauds
perpetrated has rewarded the partici-
pants in those frauds by giving them
lucrative appointments. 1t is evidently
a case of division of plunder, and the
American people will in all probability
insist upon purifying the government, by
driving the participants in this great
crime, together with those who have sup
ported them, from public life.

ACA11FoRNta THREAT OF SECESSION

A CALIFORNIA THREAT OF SECESSION
The San Francisco Daily Stock Report,
the oldest financial newspaper on the
Pacific coast, in urging that monster
mass-mceting be held in San Francisco
to demand of President Hayes that he
sign the Chinese bill, says: ALREADY
such dread possibility as secession from
the Union, in the event of our failure to
obtain the relief We demand from the
Chinese evil, is broadly talked of in high
circles. The East has utterly failed to
understand our position, and to extend
the aid and sympathy We have the right
to expect from the sisterhood of States.
Leading men say that we have pleaded,
have exhausted arguments, have cried
aloud for relief, but our most earnest ap-
peals have been treated with indignity,
and our sufferings been made q mock.
AS last resort We will take advantage of
the geographical lines that surround us,
the vast extent of soil within our boun-
daries, the exhaustless resources of wealth
that are ours, and will set up an Occiden-
tai Republic which, if it cannot rival the
old Republic in its glory of the past,
will at least be magnificent Empire Of
white freemen, whose !.eritage shall be
preserved to their children's children for

The new device attempted by the city
of Memphis to get rid of her debt is des-
tined to provo a magnificent failure, as
the creditors have gone into the United
States Courts and secured the appoint
ment of a receiver. In announcing his
decision upon the application, Judge
Baxter said:
The State of Tennessee created muni-
cipal corporation, and that corporation
created debts and acquired assets. The
Legislature abolished this corporation and
appropriated to the State the assets Of
the corporation. This court is bound to
administer the law, and the act of the
legislature in the premises is violation
the United States. The act is invalid,
of the constitution of the State end Of
and the court so declares it. 1t IS an act
impairing the obligation of contracts.
This court has right to take possession
of the assets of the corporation and turn
them over to the receiver. The German
national bank and the city treasurer will
have time to file their answer. The
funds will not be distributed before such
answers are made. So far as this court
has any power it will protect any citizen
against the State court in demanding
double payment. Should this court go
wrong, the Supreme court of the United
States, in which he hoped all people had
would correct the error.

There was every indication that Con-
gress would fail to pass the appropriation
bills, in consequence of the disagreement
between the House and the Senate upon
the proposition to repeal the test oath for
jurors and to repeal the law authorizing
the appointment of United States super
visors of elections. The result of this
failure will necessitate an extra session
of Congress, which will probably be
called at an early day. Extra sessions,
as general thing, are not desirable, but
if they are necessary to obliterate two
such offensive statutes from our books as
the ones referred to, the country will be
glad to secure the riddance, even at such
an expense. We are grati6ed to see that
the Democratic party has life enough in
it to give fight to the Republicans, and
if our Representatives and Senators in
Congress will only pursue offensive party
tactics instead Of the defensive, we think
the results will be much better in the
next canvass. The rascalities of the Re-
publican party in legislation ought to be
repealed, and the country will respect
the party which has the manhood to do
it, despite the howl which the Republi-
cans will raise over it.

THE NEW ERA.
The Development of the IMMORAL Resources
of South Carolina About Beginning In
Earnest

We were much interested in conver-
sation we had last evening with a learned
mineralogi.t and geologist, no doubt well
known to many OF our citizens, Professor
n. A. Bibikoff, graduate with high dis
tinction of the Universities Of st. Peters
burg and Munich. lie has been resi-
dent Of the State the greater part of the
past five years, during which time he has
made careful examination of the soil in
various localities with very surprising
and gratifying results. Among his re-
cent discoveries are a valuable bed Of
burr-stono in Crangcburg County, pro-
nounced by competent judges to be fully
equal in quality to the best French burr.
He has also found indications of rich
coal beds in the middle portion of the
State, and is convinced that it is the
genuine "black diamond" though he de-
sires to make some further Investigations
before expressing himself positively on
this point. lie has found silver in Lex
ington County; this, however, had been
discovered some years ago, and he only
claims to have confirmed the previous
knowledge and indicated the exact To-
cality. He has discovered slate in Lex
ington we'll adapted for roofing; also
some on the plantation of DR.. Turnip-
seed, in Richland County, which will
make excellent pavements.
In Laurcns County he found marble
mines, and a mine Of corundum,
precious mineral used in making emory.
He has also pointed out q good many
veins of gold, which metal has always
been known to exist in this State.
The result of his experience has been
such as to induce him to establish an
Office in Columbia, where landowners
can consult him in regard to mineral de-
posits on their lands. He will examine
specimens of rock, ores and earth which
may be brought to him, and furnish in
formation generally on the subject of
mineralogy. His Office will adjoin that
Of DR.. Turnipseed, who, in order to en-
able him to make living till his pro-
posed business develops sufficiently, has
engaged his services 10 put up his pre-
scriptions for his patients.
This appears TO be an opening for
much good to our people, and we trust
that DR.. Bibikofr will meet with such en-
couragement as will make his business q
paying one. No man can afford to work
forever for nothing, and if one desires to
see our resources developed we must
make some outlay to begin it. A coal
mine in South Carolina would save US an
immense amount of money, besides CIV
ing employment to many persons in dig
giug and transporting it. The State
quarries in Lexington and Richland are
another source from which much imme-
diate benefit may be derived. And so
on with all the other mineral substances
mentioned .-COkunbia Register.
