Orangeburg.
The peopje of South Carolina are
unlike those ot any other Stale with
in the scope of our knowledgpj so far
as their resources are concprped ; and
it would not be saying too much to
state that we of Orangeijurg, differ
materially, in many respects, from
ihe Stale. We have never indulged
in that hopelessness whicli character
ised "other communities within the
limits of the devastated portion of
the State, but a brave looking for
ward to a better time, and a com
mendable zeal in every thing we un
dertook prompted our people to ac
tion. Wo have never closely counted
the cost of an undertaking nor sought
to know whether an enterprise would
result in profit or loss as prudence or
wisdom would dictate as the true poli
cy. A desire to do, and in doing lo
succeed has nerved and prompted
us to put forlh every effort necessary
lo adapt us lo the new industrial re
lations incident to our change of cir
cumstances. Hence the people have
succeeded in spite of the most de
pressing financial and political em
barrassments ever placed opposed to
the best intentions and industry of a
community.
' No man can tell what is in store
for this people and a judgment, to be
even partially accurate, must be
based upon a knowledge of what the
past has been, if the citizens of Or
angeburg county^ succeeded so satis
factory under the grievous besetments
which the Radical Government, act
ing ruinously upon the property and
labor of the land, interposed, whut
bay they not accomplish under a
Wise government protecting property
and labor alike. In dealing with the
future, therefore, of Dr?ngeburg we
? , . ? ? i ? ? i ?
are influenced'by'no misgivings as to
the ac6ijracy of the views advanced ;
nor are wo apt to be controlled by
Our wishes'und'prejudices op the one
band, or our fears as to the tenabili
ty of those vie .ys on the other.
? jit is fair to conclude that what the
county lost under the influences of a
bad government may be more than
regained undor a good one. The
Physical elements remaining the same
hrift ihe' juornl and political olerocnts
being vastly improved,' all that re
mains to develop our resources and
i'oT reap the greatest profit from our
udustrie's,' is to rid the county, by a
judicious course of' cond'upl, of every
fcvil influence left by the old domi
nant party. Tho greed for money,
the ambition for position and the
profjig'ney of principle, which seemed
to have entered all the elements of
society and yet lingers to a greater
br less extent, mnst be purgebt from
Ihe body politic, and our people lay
ng aside their old prejudices, must
lay jiold on t|io energies of the pres
ent and v/ork put for therasplves a
successful fulurp. This pan bo dpne.
No section of country in Ihe land
J.ma a climate superior to this and
few can compare favorably with it in
tho essential elements of health.
Silch is the testimony of every north
erner who Jjas been here to improvo
\\\h ppysipa} condition. Our summers
hre rioVexcesslvely hot as the climate
either' further north or south at the
same season, pur winters arc usu
fa1ly' r$ri| hot yielding, pyen in mid
winter, a' tpmpcraturo sufficiently low
to produce more than a cold snap of
a few days. Such a climate and lo
cution as this of Ornngcburg needs
only to bo utilized tc yield tbo very
best results of 'labor and, money in
vestments. Tbp town can utilizo
them by building a hotel of sufficient
capacity and with modern improve
ments sufficient'to meet tho demands
of' tqyalids and making it known
throughout the vast regions of the
North "where consumption and other
diseases, incident to a severe plima'c,
prevail. A few years only would be
necessary to make Qrangcburg a suc-j
cessful rival of Aikpn or any other)
location south of us. Indeed no com
munity combines greater advantages
of health, intelligence, liberal views
and sentiment or religioqs and edu
cational facilities than this.- Not the
least, by any means, of tho advan
tages of this community is tho wilh
ingncss of our people to welcome
among them strangers who are not
political bummers or Radical adven
turers who come not for a legitimate
purporse but to stir up strife and to
excite hatred bptween tho races.
xTaking the fertility of the soil and
its adaptability to the growing of
every kind of crop ipto consideration,
our country friends might utilize
these' local advantages by raising an
abundance of everything necessary
for the subsistence of man and beast.
We see no valid reason why Qrangc
burg nijjy not produce full food sup
plies with a large surplus and supple:
merit tdiat production by the cotton
prop. Tc? Uiany farmers throughout
the county procure their provisions
from abroad ; but since the introduc
tion of the oat crop, we Gad planter
after planter returning to the ante
bellum prudence of mnking their
bread and meat on their own farms.
We confidently believe that the time
is not very far in tbe future when not
a pound of bacon, a bushel of corn,
a barrel of sugar, molasses, or Hour,
or a pound of Imttpr will be procured
by Ornngcburg planters froin abroad.
This is indicated from the intelligent
views expressed in the publje prints
and the seasonable discussions held
upon home economy by tho county
Agricultural Society at cyery stated
meeting. Heretofore cotton, was tjip
main crop and often tho only crop
cultivated to the exclusion of ever}'
other. When sold it represented op
ly a money value and was thrown
upon the field of speculation, manipu
lated by speculators until the indus
try which produced it ceased to have
any other meaning than to support
the money handlers of the country
towns and they in turp Um ^budls"
and shears" of pornmerciii} marte.
To pander to this wjU! spirit of spec
ulation throughout the lam], farmers
lent their aid to telegraph tp trade
centres the ctfects of storm, floods,
droughts, and Radical political dis
cord upon their cotton crops with no
other aim than duly to notify specu
lators how they might best deal
in what are technically called "fu
tures." The farm wa? ot ^bp mercy
of all this avarice and became poor
in the midst of abundance. With a
full food crop on hand the planter
can regulate the value of his Cotton,
and, by keeping bis counsel, control
the commerce of the land. This is
his natural prerogative, and he ought
to exercise it.
Contoderates in Congres3.
Mr. Ewing, of Ohio, on last Satur
day in his great speech classified
among' the stalwarts, Mr. Garficld,
who essays to be the keeper of the
President's conscience; Mr. Fryc,
who would attempt to point out his
line of duty and Mr. Conkling? wlio
says he would be a "dog" if he sign
ed the army bill, asserted that since
the Confederate Brigadier-Generals
were in Congress there had been no
more great jobs passed through that
body.
Considering the section of the
country and the man from whom this
tribute of prinsc comes, it" ta a 'compli
ment lto Southern'1 wor'th' that was
scarcely to be hoped for'even at
this period of the so called revolution.
When it is remembered that millions
upon millions of dollars were abso
lutely stolen by the Republican party
through tho agency of congressional
enactments during tho palmy days of
Grant ism, sucii a declaration from a
man like Mr. Ewing is a commenda
tion upon Southern Statesmanship,
and patriotism of infinitely more
value to Southern character than all
Jhe vituperation and slander of Jim
Rhone and his associates will be able
to destroy in a hundred years. Wo
do earnestly trust that the conduct of
our Representatives will be such os
to merit the contiued praise of our
countrymen of every (section. X
strict adherence to the constitution',
a charitable courso in regard to all
national measures, a ljbcral policy
toward tho colored race and a persis
tent opposition to sectionaf hjitter
ness will go far in securing the con
fidence of the Northern masses and
in restoring that friendly feeling be
tween the sections aocV races so ne
cessary to tho pence of the country
and tho prospprity of tho pepplc.
Tho people qf tho Sou'tUV gr? lopg
accustorncd to political confusjon,
intornal disorder occasioned by race
prejudices and Radical tuition, and
tho disarrangement of thoir plans
wi(,h the destruction pf their liopea,
need order and quietness that they
may address thomselves more earnest
ly to tho great work of rebuilding their
fortunes and adapting themselves to
tho charges and the demands of the
times. Upon tho threshold, thore
fpre, of this new period we look back
upon tho past with but few regrets
aud forward to a future pregnant
with hope of a new and more Success^
ful life. As a matter of curiosity as
well as information we will stato
that tjjere are ninctyrlhrce Bopresen
' tatiyes and Senators in Congress at
I the present tune from the late Con
federate Spates. Qf these, one was
the Vice-President, onp the PoBtmas
ter-Gencral, live Congrcssmpn, two
Lieutenant-Generals, four Major
Generals, sixteen Brigadier-generals,
seventeen ColonelB, five Lieutenant
Colonels, four Majors, nine Captains,
and all the rest did service in the
Confederate cause in some capacity
or other. Tbeso men are all doubt
less as sincere in their devotion to
the Constitution of the United States
as fcbpy once were lo that of the
Copfpdprate Statps; and, having ac
cepted the results of the war as a
final scltlprpent pf the question that
caused it, they will prove the best
defenders of its principles and pro
tectors of \ho riglptq it guarantees to
the state and the citizen.

Refinery.
We would earnestly call the atten
tion of our readers to the communi
cation in to-day's paper, addressed to
the farmers of our county by Mr.
Gco. II. Cornelson. Tho necessities
of the farmer and the demands of the
pountry require a diversified agricul
ture in order that prosperity may at
tend the labor of those who till the
soil. There js scarcely a farm within
the limits of thp county tlp>t does notj
embrace every variety pf soil and is
therefore adapted to every yaripty pf
crop. The rich loam will grow cot
ton in sufficient abundance to pay for
the expense of cultivation, whereas
the light sandy soil of our uplands
will not. Corn, generally occupies
the bottom lands apd such other fer
tile fields of the farm as may not be
planted in cotton j whijp sandy s,oi)s,
which abound more pr less, grqw this
grain in meagre crops. The only
crop therefore assigned to this class
of lands are oats, peas or sorghum
which grow in limited quantities. In
consequence of their poverty but lit
tle attention or pains is devoted to
the cultivation of such fields. Of
these props sorghum yields most
abundantly and with only a trifling
outlay of labor pr money ; but be
cause of t jie inferior quality of the
syrup made and the low price it
brings in the market, the crop has
been almost abandoned by our farm
ers. . If therefore the cfPp can be
made nremunerativc one the abundant
crops it yields, will make it aq impor
tant as any other on the farm, and
our largo sandy fields, heretofore al
lowed to grow up in broom sedge,
may bo profitably utilized without
curtailing to any great extent the
acreage of other crops or materially
advancing tho expense of the farm.
Tho enterprise which Mr. Cornel
son proposes to undertake will meet
Ibis demand and his known success
in other lines of business together
with his acknowledged foresight and
commendable public spirit are guar
antees of its success. It cannot be
doubted that sugar of an excellent
quality may bp niade frpjp the millet
and it is equally an established fact
that its juice is rich in sapbarine mat
ter and turns out sugar in quantity
equal to the real cane. These facts
commend the enterprise to our farm
ers and we hope enough of the sor
gho will lie p|anted this season to
give the matter a fair test. The re
finery will be established^ the fjepes
sary chemicals will bo provided and
every facility afforded the farmer to
make this a paying crop. Let him
do jds part and an enterprise will be
established in our midst that will go ,
far toward working out the independ
ence of the farmer and the prosperity
of the county. ? >:
Unveiling the Co^nf^ierato Monument.
" Tho ceremonies attending the un
veiling tho monument have been ap
pointed for the 13th of May next and
a cordial invitation is extended to all
friends of 1 the Lost Cause, and espe
cially to the survivors of the Confed
erate Army and Navy. It is thought
there will be'a Very largo gathering
of the military of ibis and perhaps
the adjoining States- which of itself
will make the occasion a most inter
esting one. More than ten thousand
soldiers from South Carolina fell in
the Confederate servico and to per- [
petuato their memory as well as that
of the cause for the success of which
they laid down their lives?this mon
ument has been erected and will be
unveiled on the l?Uh I\(i?.y. From
every quartor therefore, of the Stale
the veterans of the lato war and their
representatives, the militia of Slate,
will come to witness tho ceremony
and testify by their presenco their
high appreciation of the efforts put
forth by tho Ladies' Monumental As
sociation to savo the memory of our
noblo dead from befolg forgotten.
Let Orangcburg occupy an honorable
position which she can do with her
citizen soldiery under the cpnimand
of Gen.. Jas. F. Izlar, himself an old
and tried veteran of the war.
If the Railroad authorities will
make the same cheap excursion ar
rangement for this occasion as for
the recent Charleston festivities, our
people will be enabled to visit the
capital on one of the most interesting
occasion in the history of the State.
Til? Veto.
Contrary to the expectation of
most men who hoped that the Presi
dent woiijd, rise above party, and un
bridled by its influences, he would as
sert an independence commensurate I
with the position he occupies by
signing the Army appropriation bill;
I but thpre c?n, be no dependence upon
a fraud when honesty is at stake, or
upon cowardice when certain danger
is ipyolvcd or upon weakness when
great effort is demanded. Mr. Hayes
ns a fraud fails \n meet the require
ments of honest principle, cowers be
fore the prack of the party's lash and
sinks under the load of duty by veto
ing the bill because of the section
which forbids the use of troops on
days of election at the ballot box.
The most sensible reason he gives
is a child of his weakness?"that au
thority to use the army is necessary
for the protection of the ballot box"?
to bulldoze Democrats?to count in
Radicals. The issue is made, we
hope the Democrats will not back,
and for the sake of principle lot the
matter go to the people.
