As to "i'ext ciooKs). The State of Examiners, at a recent mcc'tliijr, adopted the county system of text books, that it?, the use in the county oi' a sialic series iii l&e public schools to be >eicctc<l by ihe county boards, 'i'ais secia? to us a step is: the right direction, bill our public school svitetc vrill not attain its highest perfection until we have a singie list, ot' text books for the ivhoie State. The board thinks, however, the pr.cuHr.r conuiuou of 2flairs in this State i'.t present, there bein:* tcachers possessing different capacities and pupils c 1" both ricec, that it would be unwise to adopt ?. uniform system. \ The adoption of a uniform county : " i?>" TT7>i?/?!l Will CiVlii ISt tllU >T Uivu ?f ?* ultimately lead to the adoption of the system in the whole State. There have been objections raised to the action of the board oa ihe ground or its great cost. It this were true it would be a sufficient reasou for condemning the action of the board. But is it so? The :Ui oi books adopted is nearly the same as those in use before this action ot the board. It is fair to presume taut pup:is in the public schools are supplied with some of the books that wili he adopted by the county beard. They wiii then be put to no great expense in supplying themselves with the books which they may not have. It will go hard with some to .snake even these pnrchases it is but then, "\riien cbto:ned, the fK)pu attend any school in the county without making a purchase of books every lime he changes from cne school to the other, and will not be compelled to make a change at every change of teachers. Under the old system every school district in tbo county had dlfferens text books for the schools, and if often happened that parents either moved from one district to another or Ihe tcacher was chan^cd at every session. Every ' teacher had his own ideas about text book?, and as a consequence they were generally changed every session. This oi*Cv>nr.so costs an enormous amount in the ior.g run. The present change may cost ihe patrons of schools, it is true, bet it cannot possibly be such a tax upon them as r. change every year j would bring. There are other advad-; cages to be derived frcm a uniform' system of text books besides the mat-: ter oi' cost, but as this seems to be at present the main objection rc the action o: the board we will not here caalieriue these.

The probable course of events would be something like this, as the New York Po9t says: The Prcsideht would issue his proclamation interdicting transshipment in bond. Nobody really believes that Canada would "come down" in consequence of this assault. Cauadians are made of pretty much the same stuff as ourselves. As we would not yield to a threat, neither would they. They have abundant means of getting to and from the oceans without crossing our territory; but very likely they would respond by interdicting "the transship ment our goods across their territory. "We could not gainsay that. Such "a roeasure would paralyze the trade which now pa?ses between Detroit and Niagara Falis, Ogdensburgh and Boston "via Canada West. Very scon national passions would, be thoroughly roamed. lu a blaze of this kind the torch of protection to home industry would 1:0 more be seer, than an ignis JhtWLS at noonday. All the pride of country would be gathered about the President as the representative of the national honor and the upholder of the liag. Even codfish would be lost sight ?fina QOBjfiict of such continental wroportions. Senator Culiora undoubtedly sees ail this. If any Senator does not see ii, he must be short sighted indeed. But, supposing that Senator Coilom is right in assuming that the Prcsi aent s message is a political move, - what else than a political move was ~'-^the Senates Retaliation Act?the act oi :S37? We have pointed out that this measure was a cowardly evasion of the duty of Congress, and a reversal of all "the precedents of the past, since Congress, although possessed of full knowledge, refused to declare non-intercourse, but merely authorized ibe President to declare it in his discretion. How differcniiy did the Congress of 2809 behave towards two greater powers in Christianuo?n when they had committed acts In contravention of our maritime rights. Vv"e have examined the debates in j the Congress of 1809 or. the Non- i Intercourse Act to see if any suggestion was made looking to the shirking of their responsibility in the premises and putting it on the President. No such thought was ever entertained or expressed. This til! was passed in the infancy of the nation against the two strongest powers in Christendom. It was passed because Congress was in earnest and had no partisan end to subserve. The discretion wss lodged with the President to declare nonintsreourse at an end, when the oifon- i sire acts should cease, but to the inception of it he had no more discretion than o:ie c.r ?he padres of the Senate. ?Rev. i)r.

I A Forcible A/suuect We havo never seen the argument for the restriction of foreign immigra| lion pat so clearly in so short a space j j as by the New York Evening Pest, I which says: Unrestricted immigration decreases { our average wealth. The average , we?tith of~our citizens is $1,000 per | capita, that of the immigrants not ^ more than $100. The average well- j being of oar community is therefore j p lowered by their arrival. The ques- j ^ lion is not one of the greatest possible * production of national wealth, but of f its best possible distribution. The im- , migrants are laborers. Their pres- * ence, therefore, adds io the wealth of j the rich, who wish to buy labor cheap, but diminishes the earnings of the j" poor, who are equally interested in j c selling their labor dear. {* !

Wi.u mt rhetoric and circumlocution, then,; will proceed. > The first reflcttiou i desiro 10 oii'jr is i his, vu.: That the raising of cattle id . subject of vastly more importance I hail we are accustomed to accord it. I u my judgment, It is the oa.4.s of all! f'JOU ilusi/'-uiurv. uvvAvis>u i.viiL ?ny pecuniary proiils to be? derived herefrom, i-j the sale of auianils or heir products, it is to this indasUy ut wo are 10 look for ihe permanent i laprovemsni of our poo?y.vornout seiJs | vhich grout desideratum is to be mained through the change of crops ande accessary to support theaaima;s, vnd the e&reral husbanding of the nanure made thereby. You have doubtless heard the old icruiau adage, "No grass, no cattle; io cattle, uo manure; no manure, ao :rop." It may be as Vilie, the great Trench chemist and agriculturalist ;avs, that one can raise better crops at i less cost by the aid of chemical nanoree, bat* it does not seem pracical to me with the kinds of crops we aise. When I look aroand and see he old scarred and gullied hills, j md when I take my own experience nio consideration, Mr. Ville's theory loes not seem to work out: in practice. rVhen I want to raise a big crop, I go 'or stable manure every" time, and vhen I apply it properly, no matter ? cmo'j it frencrallv re iponds satisfactorily. This is not kiways the case with purchased nanures. Sometimes I can hardly tell whether I have applied anything or )ot. And to take Dr. McBryde's itatement as to his success in raising jotton on the college experimental grounds, one would be almost afraid x> venture much on commercial matures. Bat not to wander off. To my one whs thinks of going into :atlie raising, certain considerations ! iuggest themselves, as what breed or >? breeds are best suited to his wants, uid how he is going to provide 1 - ~ .V, ? ? nnsflivo ,'UOiU.lUi C".

There are ieveral leading varieties in South JaroJina.. and it is of them only I wish o speak, becanso from among them :an he procured the kinds best adapted o the wants ot* the country in which ve live. They are the Short-horns, iolsteias, Devons, Ayrsbires, Jerieys, and Guernseys. These are bred or speciHc purposes, as follows, viz.: bs Short-horns for beef: the IIoliteins for beef and milch; the Devons or beef and work oxen; the Ayrshire or milch; and the Jersey and Guc-rn ey for butter. .Mow ail one nas 10 i\o a "to decide what he proposes to raise ;attie for, whether tor* beef, work r:en, milch, or butter, aud make his ioice accordingly. If he wants to aise beef he wiii not scicct the Jerioys, or iflfc wactf; butter lie win not ieiect the Devon, ?ud so or thronjrfc lie'list. Xow as to the adaptability of these >reeds to our wants. The Short-horn a a very large animal, but in my udgment is not adapted to our scanty >astures. It may do very well for the ich grass lands of Kentucky, Ohio, ;iid Illinois, where they are brought o great perfection, and sell for large >ricee, but here thev wear themselves int r> vain search tc iind snlEcient i bod to maintain their magnificent arcasses. and consequently deterioate in size and quality. They have >een before onr people for many ears, but their breeding is on ;he pane. The Hoistein is a nevr breed, i?roduccd in this section a few years go from Holland. Like the Shortiorn they are very large, weighing ome times two thousand and more ounds. They .are magnificent milkrs, giving as much aa 70 or 80 pounds >er day in rare instances, ana make xcellent beef, but how animals of nch large size are to be maintained M our short pastures i3 more than I ,m able to tell. This breed or the ihort-horn crossed upon the native p-onld, however, greatly improve the fitter, and for this purpose are very esirable. The Devon is a beauty, o: a rich ed color, of rounded frame, of medium lze, quick growm ana action, ana aakes the best marbled beef, and for work ox is unsurpassed. They have ieen bred almost exclusively for these wo uses. In their breeding so little ttcntlon has been paid to their milkug qualifications, thai in the Herd Jook, the size and sh* of the bag of be cow is set dowD au almost nothing q the scale of points by which they re judged. The Ayrshire is a small or uicuiam !zod animal, introduced from the bort pastures of Scotland. They :ve a very large quantity of a poor 1 ualitv of milk, rich, however, in hoesc making qualities.

All : bo beef producing parts have been i red awav until only a poor, scraw- j ey carcass is icft, not lit for beef, ; xcept for people who do act know ! rhat good beei' is. It is claimed for ' le Guernseys that they are larger and ' oarser boned, and make as much < utter and better beef than the Je<> i 3ys?. < Yoa have thus given you the prinipa! characteristics of these breeds. { [ you meditate trying the raising of ittie. you will lock around you, and ; ie what the markets near yoa de- ( land, and make your selections ac- < :ordingiy.

I must confess tail or.: i-testv.z -;y of do is 2" things U %,.co much :or 7;i<;. : Why, iu Lhosc g-od old day?, ".he n:rin was nicely divided in fields, wc-il fenced. On my farm, one-third w^at into cotton, one-third into com. and o:w>lhiic! ir.'c smaii grain. Thin tUvre was a surplus of everything. The htock * >. .?a taken from the ;:ne;diure.s landj as ?oo:- us the v/heat a-d o:U tklds coa-d be opened. A ma u^on th-.re for u month or '.vjih t;:e ??:sulevod gra:n; and crab and oiscr grasses, put them in good orde:. Then a com Held was gathered, whig? w-iu the corn left, and peas v;l'M ptich every corn field was pia*^, put every animal in fine condiufflj ready to be* fattened for the butcher. Then I sold, after supplying the plantation, hams and lard, beeves and milch coW8, hides and tallow. How changed now! I will mako a reflection just here. Alter awhile cotton got to be a big price, and this one-third arrangement was abandoned, and one-half went into cotton, and then I began to buy this tiling an* that, aud finally more land, went, hiiO cotton, and now supplies had to be bought. I saspcct that" most of you older men have gone t hrough the same experience. Recognizing ihe fuct, rhat all this was wrong, but seeing no way ro correct it," I determined at least to raise my own supplies, and commenced carrying out in a smali way, the ideas X have been advancing. Around my homestead, i selected me a farm separate and distinct from the tenant, and upon this I am operating, principally raising cattle for the butter dairy/ with which I am much pleased. 1 am pursuing a different plan in the discussion from what I intended, when I set out, but a9 I have started ou my experience I will proceed with it, whether it dovetail with the plan or not. I suggested before, that whoever attempted to raise cattio wiil meet with seme difficulties. Well, one of them i9 summer pasturage, or grass raising. Kignt here 1 stamoiea. i mighfas well give you my experience, and be done with it, for von cannot raise cfitllc profitably unless you raise i^r a?s. 1 bought books, a::d read up on grass. I was enthused. The catile and the %o\d and silver upon s tho-isanct iillirs were to be mine. I tried red clover," herd's grass, timothy, cut grass, and so on, but somehow I did net suoccri. I tried them upon uplands and low lands, spending several hundred dollars. The summer suas killed my uplands, and the overflows from the river destroyed my boitoms. Sometimes I raised good clover, after several year's trial, and sometimes I did r.ot, more often missed than aifc1 am amused, when I ;cok back some o: my expericnee,_anu_jagiet**? you may save SCftW .'llOUcy anu a great : r\i' if Vf>:: wi". heed what 1 a:r. saying. I remember occe when I was going tc order large ioi of seeds from David Landreth & Son, of Philadelphia, of referring tc my text book, to see ho*,7 much per acre of the diii'erent kinds of peed ihust be sown, to know hovr much to order. The book opened of its own accord at a certain page. (The book was by a Massachusetts man.) Here is what caught my eye: "Experiment has satisfactorily ecttled that*it in utterly impossible ' to carry the English and Northern hay grasses under the excessive temperature that exist at the South," or words to that eilcct. That was a stumper, but i argncu that he did know'everything, and I was just the fellow to demonstrate that it could be done. And so I went on, having some success and many failures. I talked grass until I fooled mv neighbors with the belief that they too could raise grass. D. Wyatt Aiken passed my house once and saw what he called the best clover patch he had ever seen in South Carolina, and nothing must do him but I must tell before the State Agricultural Society how to winter cattle on clover hay and other srrtsscs, which I was tool enough to do. I soon, however, quit raising grass, except in cotton fields, r.nd thought the fault was in me. Bat first one~ and then another of my neighbors tried it, and all at last quit it, so that I was led to exclaim, "The fault, dear Brutus, is not in us, but in our stars." 1 louud to iny sorrow that the Massachnsett author was correct, and I now give it as my judgment that whoever fool3 with auy of English and Northern hay grasses for many years will wish he had not. I never tried lucerne. The Hon. ilr. Rion, of this place, seemed to succeed and do wonders with it. Why do not some of the balance of you do CJ-? frw> V Bat I succeeded finally. Yoa Fairfield farmers will probably smile, R-hon I tcil you I fell back on Bermuda grass. Farmers may say what they p'easc about this great pest of the :otion plant, but to me it has given more satisfaction than anything I have tried. It vrill furnish more good grazing, and stand more trampling md rough uaagc than any other gr&s?. [n fact, the more you pasture it the tetter it seems to lake posseesion of Lho ground. It will grow under all ;ii cum stances and conditions, more surely and patisfactovily than any xher grass. I had an enclosure on my :arm lying >n a stream consisting of about 40 or >0 acres worn out bottom lands, too still'or too low for profitable cultlvaion, with 50 or 75 acres upland \djoining. Some years ago 1 ran oil :ovvS in the grass aud weeds, the iar.d . 4 - --TV?s?.v%? *T" * cr.TfAl'O 1 i jul u'wvw wu:u?rtitw ^vui? /ears, rivy feet apart, and dropped the Bermuda roots at three feet in the Irill and commenced to pastors at >nce.
