SATURDAY, JUNE 15,1867.
While. reserve to ourselves the right of defi
ning our^oicn political jiosition by means of our
editorial eolumus, we will beplcased to publish
j contributions from our fclloxc-citizcns upon the.
[grave tptesfions which noip agitate the. public
mind, whether their ?opinions coincide with ours
or not. A district newspaper,' we consider,
should be an index of the various, shades of pop ?
ular sentiment, in the. section of country in which
it circulates. Our columns are open, (Jicrifore,
rbr any communication* properly written, accom
panied by a responsible, name,'not -personal in
their character, nor absolutely injurious in their
tendency.
Our Finances.
(. ,:Do you know airy one who has a few hun
dred to lend? '-No; but wo know of a few.
hundred who would like to borrow," is the re
ply. Thcro is a striking commentary in this
upon the times. -Without doubt, the country
is hard up ; and wore it not for assistance from
abroad, the starvation and misery which has
visited some of our unfortunate neighbors in
spite of all efforts, would be almost universal.
, Hut it will never avail' us to give way to de
spair. Let us look tho crisis full jn tho face,
and resolutely qndcavorto meet it aa best we
may. And first, let us consider briefly the
causes of ? this general depression in our midst,
and sco if we can gather from thesosources any.
reasons for encouraging hopes of tho futuro.
/ First, the 'failure of crops last year left the
/whole country so poorly supplied for the pre
sent season, that a clog was laid upon all agri
cultural enterprises, which arc the basis of our
material prosperity. This State is dependent
for support upon her groat staples,.and in caso
of a failure in-the crops, wo have no manu
factured fabrics to sond abroad to exchange for
the products of other sections.; hence without
gratuitous assistance from the benevolence of |
strangers, our people at such a time must suf
fer many and great privations. H?ing under
this state of affairs now, tho question arises, is
there any hope of bettering our condition in
this respoct ? "Wc arc happy to he able to
point to the crops of the present season, and
libd in thorn a sign of encouragement. Na
ture seems to have smiled upon tho labors'of I
the industrious planter, and holds out to him
the prospect of an ample harvest. In visiting
different parts of our District of late, and in
hearing reports from othor sections, wc arc jus
tified in concluding that tho crop of the pre
sent year, when brought to market, v, .11 tend
greatly to tho amelioration of our condition.
/ Secondly, t^hc disagreements h'ctw'ccn debtor
laud.orcditor, the existence of a Stay Law, and
xhc accumulation of.. litigation . consequent
thereon,?all these tended to add to to tho dis
tress incident'upon the failure of the Southern
cause. But hero again, there is liopc in tho
future, since the Court Dockets will ;*>on be
cleared of this .0*??? ofj suits, and tho, course,
of justice will'vplwoced'ih\its usual" channel.
Had it not been; for^ho misguided action of tho
military commandeer,, tho 5 great -.mass of this
litigation would have boon already dispatched,
and the country.would already be, reviving
from its incubus. ,
/ Thirdly, tfno disorganized condition of Soeie
(ty, consequent upon tho arbitary and unjust
legislation of Congress. The' effects of this
, are to bo seen in the total destruction of credit,
in tho Stagnation of business,* iu the uncertain
ty which hangs .over the events of our political
liib. * In these days, when no contract is sacred
undor the law j when all tho calculation and
arrangements of prudent foresight-are liable at
any moment to be annulled by a military or
der, when the close of a disastrous wur finds
iis not - only "the victims of the conquering;
sword, but of tho vindictive edicts of tho victo
rious party, promulgated from tho Halls of'a
factional Congross, and increasod in their sever
ity by the manner of thoir execution by power
ful nnd irresponsible agents,?all these form
the prime causes of our distress, and from these
it is our hardest task to find* a refuge. But
even here, let us not give way to despair. Let
us,strugglc on with our fate, and FoYtuhe may
at somo unexpected turn of her wheel, declare
in our favor. Meanwhile, let us toil faithfully
for the accumulation of the means of support
ing existence j let us devote our energies to
placing ourselves in a position of private in
dependence : so that if storms are around us,
and our political horizon shows no star of hopcv
.we con iu the cheering domestic circle*, enjoy
the consciousness of comfort, plenty and peace.

Brazil and its Trod nets.
We place bofore our readers, the following
interesting account of Brazil, written by u
friend who has been there for the pur-po.se of
seeing the country, hud who lias uinqc "his otif
scrvatlons with intelligence und discretion :
'? - .
Oraxmkrurg District; S. C.
June 8th, 1SG7.
Mh. Editor :?I feel confident that you
have no idea of visiting the Empire of Brazil,
but'notwithstanding, I will comply with your
request , by giving you a brief description of the
climate, soil-and - productions of that country,
together with the manners, customs and habits
of its people I do not consider the climate a
healthful one, judging from tho number ofper
sons that I saw with coughs and other diseases!
I frequently noticed the range of thermometer
jn the Northern portion of the empire (on .the
Equator) and however strange it may appear. 1.
"never found the mercury .higher than ninety
eight (OS) degrees at noon. Tho temperature
of the climato in that.seetiou is the saine (he
year round, but as I proceeded South it gradu
ally grew milder, and in no portion of the em
pire that I visited did I find it sufficiently cold
to stop vegetation; though^I was told while in.
province of San Paulo, that they .sometimes
have a very light frost in that- section during
their cool season, biit as 1 mentioned above,
not sufficient to kill vegetables. It is true that
the lands generally, in that .country aro very
productive and can be boug! .'t low rates, but
I must say that many of the i<<.counts that I
read, (concerning the fertility of the soil &c.,
of that country), previous to my visit there,
were exaggerated. I think that if then- good
lands-were cultivated according to our system,
they would produce about thirty-five (35) or
forty (40) bushels of corn to the aero and from
twelve hundred to thirteen hundred pounds of
seed cotton ; again,, the corn might not make
anything, if planted according to our system,
for I was told that tho object of the Brazilian
in planting his corn thick *is to shade the land,
and protect it from the heat of the sun during
long dry soasoiiB, which they frequently havo
during the year. I noticed that all of the
Americans that nre planting in that country
(notwithstanding the most of them are from
the Southern States) follow the Brazilian's
example. As yot the growth of cotton iu that
country has not proved to be a succcsb, and is
looked upon by some men there as being a
doubtful crop. Tho coffee "fazendus" or plan
tat ions are very fine and beautiful, but they
can not be bought for less than from seventy
five to one hundred dollars por acre, and beforo
proceeding I will state that coffee can bo
grown successfully, only in certain soetionB of
tho Empiro, owing very much to the climate as
well as tho position that the ground must occu
py in regard to the sun, ns the lands of the
country nre generally rolling. Sugar cane
grows well, but the joints arc generally very
short. Tobacco also grows, finely in certain
sections; T was told by Brazilians that the
lairds in tho vicinity of Bahiu arc best adapted
to the growth of this plant;'
Tho mass of the population occupy the mari
time districts, the interior being principally
eovored with very thick forests; and it is
there' that the Brazilian government wishes
emigrant* to settle in order to clear those I
forests and op.cn roads, kc, Tho inhabitants
of Brazil are whites, Indians,, negroes uud ihixf
ed races. The "whites-areohiefly Portuguese
and their decendautrf^ of "those most of tho
wealthy aro well educated and generally very
hospitable, but education is limited, as schools
are very rare oxcept in tho largo towns ; there
fore, the people generally, aro ignorant and
also Very indolent; the indolence I think is
caused by the constant heat, which I was told?,
ha$ a?grcut tendency to keep the whole human
system debilitated. Nearly all of the labor of
tlujt country is performed by negro slaves, who
jT'eocm about three-fifths of the population. I
think that slavery there, will iu tlic course of
time be abolished by' gradual cuiauipation,
though I do. not think that it will be done very
soon. I left Brazil about eight weeks ago,
and young negro fellows were then worth from
five to seven ? hundred dollars ; the pcwple of
?.tho United States appear to be more deeply in
terested concerning the abolition of slavery
in Brazil, than the ? Brazilians themselves ; if
my predictions be true in regard to the aboli
tion of slavery there, I am confident that, that
'* ? ?
?country will be in u much worse 'Condition
than ours, as'there is even now Icps projudice
in Briizil between the different races than thcro
is in the Souther)' States.
W The religion of Brazil is Catholic, although
there are. two American churches in Bio-dc
Jnnioro, one of which is an Episcopal and the.
other a Presbyterian. *
Brazil is divided into provinces and each
..province has a-president appointed over it.
f The laws of the country arc very good, -but
they arc not properly inforeed, as the judges
as well as the juries arc open for bribery aud
corruption. There are but three railroads in
the empire. Boads for traveling by private
conveyance arc also very r.jre. and even those
that they have arc suitable for pack mules
on|v .ml w. is Ai? 'Laso nack-mulcs that all of
their exports and imports arc transported
through the interior of tho country. Agricul
ture is in a very backward state and not. more
than one forty-ninth part of the country is
supposed to be cultivated, and manufactures
scarcely exist.
The people of the. interior live upon beef,
mutton, vegetables, farina and fruits. The
vegetables are inferior, .the cause of which is
the want of proper attention and cultivation.
The farina is used' as a substitute for bread,
and is made of the roots of the mnndioca;
'the mnndioca resembles very much our Palma
Christi plant; and tho juke of its roots
pressed out, ns it is said to bo vory poisonous ;
after which, thoxo rcotx aro kiln-dried, and.
ground into a meal which has the appearance
of the meal made of Tndian-corn j this meal is
eaten on the meats and vegetables, without be
ing carried through any other process.
Persons removing to tho interior of that
empire fan never afford to cat wheat bread or
ham again, from the fact that Hour cannot be
bought for l?f-S than from twenty to twenty
two dollars ( in gold) per barrel, and hams for
not less than from forty-fivo to fifty cents per
pound; then tho expenses for transporting
these articles through the country on pack
mules are very great. The mules of that
country are not large, but they are very fine,
and can be bought for from thirty-five to fifty
dollars per bend. I saw but four horses in the
cmpjrc and they were inferior. I was told
that horses would net do well in that climate,
aud that was the reason why so few persons
had them.
. There are other things connected with the
history of Brazil too numerous for me to men
tion at present, but I will give you a full- ac
count of that country on some subsequent oc
casion. M. 1).. B.

To assist him iu the arrangement of bis
Hegistration programme, as well as to divert*
from himself individually a portion of the odium
which will possibly be excited by tho probable
character of his Order on the subject," our
Military Chief, General Sickles, has gathered
'around him an Advising Board. Five mem
bers compose it; two from ouch of tho States
constituting this District; nnd one a repre
sentative of the Military. Our State is repre
sented by Lemuel Boozor of Lexington and
P. L. Cardoza of this city ; tho former not un
known in political circles iu tho interior Dis
tricts, the latter a citizen of African descent,
the Principal of a. School for young Freedmcn
and an aspirant, it Is rumored, for a scat in the
U. S. Renate, North Carolina furnishes H.
IT. Helper, an older, brother of the "Impend
ing Crisis" man. and G. YV. *Brodtc, person of
color.. Brevct-Coloncl W. B. Royall illustrates
tUo niiiitarVj and is President of the Board.
The Bonrd.lield its first pow-w-ow on Mon
day, and is now, it is said, busily engaged in ltd
laborious/task of framing ruica for. Registra
tion. Tho result of thoir deliberations and
consultations will not ho made public until
they shall have arranged a schein o command
ing the sanction of General Sickles. It may
well be supposed, however, as the members of
the Council arc all extreme in their views, that*
ilo liberal basis of registration will be present
ed, and,' if their recommendations nro endorsed
by the General Commanding, our road to the
registratiou office aud thence to the ballot-box
will not be a smooth one.'
In a case for infringement of Internal Rev
enue Laws tried in the V. S. Court laat weok,
the question of the inviolability of telegraphic
despatches was .pressed upon Judge Bryan.
The Prosecuting Attorneys wished to examine
Mr. O'Kcaf, the Superiutendant of the' Tele
graph Company, in regard to the character of
Certain - 'messages alleged to have been sent
from here by one of the parties implicated in*
the indictment'. Mr. O'Kcaf declined to an
swer, and stated that he was bound to entire
secrecy in regard to.all despatches scut or re
ceived by him, pleading ulso that his position
was analogous to that of a Postmaster.- t His
counsel ably and logically presented his case,
but their alignments wore over-ruled by the
Judge, who decided that he must give his tes
timony in the particular demanded. The
question is a novel one in our Courts, and .can
hardly be regarded as definitely settled.
William Jennings, charged wiih having
been prominently connected with the band of
desperadoes, yclept', '-Dead Hoods''?who have
for months past fceen living like the Arabs in
Edgefield. Lexington, Dariiw'oll and Orang?
burg Districts?was last week arrested and
I marched in irous through the city, to Castle
Pinckncy, where he is uow Incarcerated. ll*o |
will be tried by- Military Commission, and if
convicted, will probably suffer, the extreme
penalty of martial law. A .Commission was
appointed a few weeks since, rind now- holds
sessions whenever cases arc brought before it .
Its first enso was that of fho negro rioters on
the Street Cars, who were acquitted.
*A genera! collision on the Western frontier
with the poor Indians seems to ho inevitable,
and the government in rapidly 'Waving triops
towards tho scat of war. Companies D and F
of the 6th Rcginmnf, which havo for months
been stationed horo, lc<ft yivtcrday.' They
joined at Uraiichvlllo two companies from the
garrison at Columbia', ami went westv.'-.'.v?, with
them. Colonel Green*, lately Vn command at
the Capital, has ( barge of the Battalion. Two
companies of artillery from Fortress Monroe
arrived here to-day. to replace those who have
gone. Colonel Burton, favorably known for
his kind treatment of Ex-Prcsidcnt Davis, ac
companies them.
The farms in the neighborhood of our city j
have this Spring, been quite prolific^ and-large
quantities of early Vegetables havo been ship
pod North. Tho steamer Champion, which
sailed last Saturday for New York", took as
part of her cargo 20.UU barrels ' of Irish pota
toes. These command very fine prices in that
Metropolis, and our industrious and energetic
farmers will he well rewarded for their enter
prise.. ? . ' .;''? ; . T. '.
The ?steamer Manhattan, consort of. the
Champion, which loft Jfow York on Saturday
afternoon, pleased.her passengers and surprised
the people generally by arriving at her wharf,
here, on Monday, having made the passage in
?IS hours. This is the quickest trip made be
tween the twof ports since the war. The best
time ever mado was by the Columbia: in 18b . ;
she thou completed her voyage from wharf to
wharf in -lb* houra.
A new force pump designed to supply loco-'
motives with water aud do away with the ex
pensive hydrants now used by the Railroad
Companies, was tested here at tho S. C, R. R.
Yard on Saturday. Three thousand gallons of
water were pumped into the "tender of an cn
gino iu six minutes. Superintendent Pcakc,
Major Melton the contractor for boring the Ar
tesian well, and several others interested in
hydraulic machines were in attendance, and all
were pleased with the result of the trial. * ?
Gen. Sickles returned Monday from his trip
to Raleigh to meet the President. The people'
arc wondering if he will advertise his return
with Order No. 35. Wo all wish, as good citi
zens, to "render unto Cmsar tho things that
aro Ciesar's," and to he obedient rto tlib "rfe.
facto" authority; but .many coniplain that
their memories con hardly retain the General's
edicts?they. follow each other in suoh rapid
succession. DELTA
