BOM li PLAIN THOUGHT* FOR TM VA HUI BBS)* The effect of exceptive purchase of ooo ; nicrcinl fertilizers, in this seotiou, ia no severe]; felt in every department j business. Every individual feels it ; tl whole country is poorer than it wi twelve months ago, and the cornie year will be one of the hardest to gi I over that has boen experienced sim I the war. This ?H indisputable fact, an J calli for calli) reflection with roforont ! to thc eour.-e to bo pursued io tho fl turo. There can bo no doubt, wc think, < ! the correctness of tho general idea th: there is now loo much reliauce on com mercial fertilizers. Thc soil must t [ fed, and a judicious and liberal systci k ol fertilization, there can alsobe nodoub ! underlies all .successful agriculture i this State. ]5ut tho country caunot al ? ford to pay out heavily for foroign mi nures, whilst it neglects und allows I j go to waste, tho valuable domestic cit ' incuts that lie scattered- all nroum IProsperity can-never be obtained upo ^such u basis ns this.- Thc whole priuo ', plo und practice is radically wrong. Mi , nure making should be a business ! leading part of the business of evci ? farmer, nod, if carefully followed, ' would be found tho 'most profitnh' JO vc ry animal upou thc furm-man an , beast-should bo made to assist in it \ creasing ihc concentrated mass of fer. i y. liziug maller, year hy year. Whc '.thia has been done, and ouly when th ? has been doue, we contend, wiil it pay I i? vest even in the best foreign clement S ..that are offered. Commercial fertilize! I ' in the main exhaust rather than resu I citato tho soil, and no farmer should lea v ?il his land, wheo a crop has boco maturct I: in a weaker condition thau he fouud ..nt planting season. Thc purpose shoul ^be to improve tho soil, from year t year ; aud.thij one bc doue by rcstrictin the area cultivated and applying free! from thc stable, the cattle shed, th hog pen, tho coin po t heap, and eve from the crude surface of the nativ foreht. itself. Another general idea, and one whic cannot bc too strongly urged, is th personal disadvantage and misfortun to the country of making cotton thc a absorbing effort of tho agriculturis Ifl We can never bc a prosperous pcopl Swhilst wc buy our meat, our manure Wa and a large part of our bread. Thea Weany out ol'thc country all that por m tion ol' its earnings tillich should b nt kept at home loineveasc-our wealth, au ? build tip our internal industries. gH Almost as by common consent, th f|! effect ol'tlic discouraging results of th Hf war, our people have abandoned th ffl, idea of ' ck raising, except to a limite M extent. lie great mass of tho baco H consumed, is furnished us by thc Wes I*! ind, necessarily, is paid for at cxhorbi II hint prices, from thc proceeds of th it cotton crop. Every thing depends upo I? filis- source - unccrtaiu in its profits as i yflis, nod the result is that tho mass of th H pnoplo live from hand to mouth. Ever ul farmer should and can raise pork suffi jfjjient for his domestic usc. We kno< ?fi lhere arc discouragements in this tl IB feet i o ii - thc harassment and uncertain wm :y attending thievery being umong th ip nost formidable. Hut this, with all th Kg /est, may bc measnable overcome by cai? rn ?rid at teni ion. ;ra True, energy and industry, with big ;? resolve, slops not at difficulties but meet H ;hem with ittvineiblo spirit, and o>cr fffl ;omes many ol theil) by increased at) Hj more assiduous rfl'urt. Our people can '3 jot afl'oid to give up thc bus?m ss o MU ti og raising, because their stock is prey wled upon by thieves. And, moreover, iii ?Kondition of . dugs, in this respect, i H] ?vident ly improving. Let ovory gooi Br ?ilizen bend his influence towards fur l'? her improvement. That slate of soci Bj sty is radically wrung which abandon: ? ;o vasily iuipni'taiit ntl interest becaus H ?f un internal beset mon t like this, o [jfl ?rhieh seeks not to overcome ibo obsta ijjl dc by well directed and persistent cf KV ort. 'J'he countty cnn produce, even ii iffi t's present condition, largely of pork cm \inl lei it be remembered that over EH doll; v's worth raised is a dollar mad ? ind kepi at li.one, bullering thc condi S jon of tho raiser and increasing tb ? traill) nf the community in which h j*| lives. We trust that our plant?is um ?3 JV cry ono, will go back to this pleasinj im ind profitable industry, mid luke it nj rm ? ?th increased energy.

' Then oom es up tho bold and irresis table fact, as echoed add re echoed ii their cars by the great voice of the peo plo from the ballot box, that the baye; net and proscriptive policy Teat an cnt] and that fraud, intimidation and th power of tho National Government sha] no longer determine who. shall occup thc office'^ of the country, showing t them that they cannot contiene to ?U?' up wit!} such. a. record. -, ., . .. And then th is'victory hits only beet attained, even amidst] t^yo'; ac?meles frauds perpetuated, and under a lat which has no parallel in the annals ? thc country, by continuing successful!; tho array of thc colored against tin whito race. Tho Govoropr preselected and thc Legislature, with the exceptio? of a small minority, aro purely .".nc solely the creatures of negro votes. Th< great intelligent, property-hold?og, re: spcctnbte white masses of tho State, ar* literally without representation. Th? merest handful of white men in th? State voted the Republican ticket whilst they stood upon a platform mos liberal, and simply asked for honesty and fitness in office. Aod it goes bc fore'tho world, that even standing thus they wero misrepresented, villificd ant outraged, and utterly denied represen? tation io their own govcrmcnt. Tlx power to tax them is wholly in th? hands of those who despise them, ant whose whole business is to plunder ant outrage them. We repeat, that it is a victory a grout cost to the party, for upon the lea dors must thc onus full. They are re? sponsible for the oleotion and for tht character of the men who have been pu into office. Officials notoriously, mcom. potent arc to occupy responsible and im ponant places, and W HITTEMORE, witl his blackened record and name of in furn j throughout thc length and breadth ; o the land, is still held up io cKgnifiec and controlling official position. . JN'o wonder the Charleston R?priblicah now extends its aiuis, with inviting ant promising words to tho intelligence ant1 respectability of the State. Dut if it sup poses that our men of character and ta lent will ever uuitc with the ptescnt lea dc rs of its party, in political fellowship; even for thc commanding places of thc State, with all its boasted wisdom and 1 knowledge of the character of thc peo? ple of "our State," it hos much yet lo learn. The viotory is a costly one, and, with ' its so called thirty three thousand ma 1 jority, South Carolina Radicalism is far from being in easy possession. TIIEOUinHS OFSORItOIV. Thc Cherokees occupy a reservation iu the far Wost, where they have con , formed to thc laws and teachings of , civilization, nnd have adopted a regular form of Republican Government. They havo a Governor, Legislattiro, Courts, and' Schools, nnd pursue the usual avo [ cations of pcncttai industry. Rut greedy speculators want their lands, and the I treaty by which those lar.da aro secured to them by the United States Govern? ment, is about to be doelured at an end, thc result of which will be another order to "move on." In this, their extremity, thoy threat I cn no revolt or disturbance. They complain of the great wrong threatened, ntid admit their inability to successfully opposo force to the white man's fraud, , and solemnly appointa day of fasting , nnd prayer to invoke God's protection in their behalf, against tho United States. This wail of the Red Man's i agony and despair comes to ns nt thc same time with GRANT'S and SCOTT'S Proclamations of u day for jubilant , thaukrgi viugs.
