A Tendency To Be Thwarted The great number of literary clubs and other social gatherings of a whole some nature mat in year* ago exisieu id Winnaboro, and the fntile attempts to organize these sort o! things within r?cent year?, induce us again to urge that some steps be taken to create more interest in this direction. We again urge that an effort be made, to secure lecturer If we cannot get speakers from abroad, try to obtain local lecturers. We would not broach this line of thought a^ain were we not instigated ?to speak with candor? by the fact that there is at the present time, due to the peculiar environment of our sitrtftHnn a. riirpfnl of more finthu - siastn and interest in the intellectual culture of our people. Thii sheet of paper sent out from time to time would fall far short of its mission, if it did not afford some incentive to stimulate the intellectual, as well, as the industrial improvement of tho people whom it purports to represent. We speak now of our intellectual progress. In bringing before the citizens of _ Winn*boro the impe?**^~uuty of 4aJ?tijfmSfe active, and not merely a passive interest to better our literary tastes as a people, it is to our mind limelv. and feel imoelled to do SO by fadings of the \ urest nature, and that we are acting in accordancs with oar best instincts; in other words we feel th*t nothing is of more concern to the t(<"7u than an awakened consciousness of the importance of cultivating an appetite for these things. In the preheut age in this country, one of the most deplorable characteristics of Americans is to sacrifice a develop* ment of the intcllectural phase of their nature to the cultiration of a capacity for practical business. Money making is in itself good enough, but to make it exclusively our ambition m Jife will in time result in a hopeless uarrowness of mind, that will not fail to produce its baneful effecis. We must increase an aptitude for the one in proportion to the tftfifer. Man by nature, as a philosophical truth, cannot cultivate one phase of his nature to any beneficial advantage (that i* ultimate benefit to the human race) to the injury of the other, hence the common and often heard speech?a well balanced mind is the best of all. . Come whatever may come, happen whatever [catastrophe may happen, may Winnsboro, the place that has enviably occupied a most conspicuous position iti culture and refinement, never grow grossly indifferent to her duty in this respect. Now, we do not mean to depreciate or chill the good work now going on at Mount Zion, the pride of the town; were we to do that we would be a criminal. We speak now in an entirely different application of the subject; we want an atmosphere of learning to surround the youug even after they leave Mount Zion; and it is nnuessary for us to say all this is intended for the unsympathetic anJ worldly side. This is for the eyes of iho>e who regard learning as an accumulation of literature, gathered iuto great store-houses called libraries, and regarded as a thing greatly to be respected, but ineftably tedious to fill the mind with, and who seemingly tninK it is ot no utmty. A fan It of the present day is that the young want to have something rather than to be something. ' It W8i the older men, many of whom have since gone never to return, who establUhed the reputed stand of Winnsboro for culture and refinement. We ask the question with all lrankness are we fostering our lesracy as we should? What bearing has the culture of the UllVliai IU WUiUJUU liiC) V> UAL lUC value of the vast accumulation of learning, what contact bat it with the mass of humanity that toils and eats and sleeps and reproduces itself and dies, generation after generation, iu an unvarying round, on an unvarying level? is asked by some one. Well, these are very pertinent questions. The most learned meu have asked them. One of the greatest his i-3 - coriauB ui lue wuriu ua? arjjueu wuu remarkable ingenuity that eren the progress of the century has done very little to ameliorate human happiness, that, iu spite of the material alleviations, little has been done to increase the pleasure of existence, for the average individual. We would remind such an one that there is not simply an inquiry as to the value of classic culture iu itselt, but there is an intimate connection between so-called useless knowledge and things of common life. There is no culture so high, no taste so fastidious, no grade of learning so delicate, no refinement of art so exquisite, that it cannot find full play in the broadest fields of humanity; it is necessary to soften the attritions of common life, and guide to nobler aspirauoos me siron?j nimeiiyuNuu influences of the restless society of nowaday?. Purely business without some literary recreation, now and then, to shed a light that ennobles common things, makes one's life like an old landscape without sunlight. In acquiring knowledge the mind passes through three stages, its philosophical stage in which laws are dis 1 "A- ? i-1 !- L!.L *? covereu, ks experimental, iu wuicii up la?vs are tested and established; and its constructive stage in which the laws (kuowfedge)are applied. The last stage | is the %chemy to ns. It is dne to it that sc&bce can give wealth, health < and happiness. Let ns move in this matter. Let as have the torch of : , J culture to transmit increasing light, from generation to generation, f-o that the feet of all, the humblest and the lowest, may walk in radiance and not stumble. WHAT THIS YEAH TEACHES. Intensive and Diversified System, the Remedy--A Plan and its Costs, Profits etc. Stated. To tke Editot of the Xacs and Herald: This rear has proven beyond a doubt that we should adopt the intensive and diversified plan of fanning-. We have been plodding along in the way our fathers successfully pursued during slavery times, when they could com m&nd labor, had the virgin soil to till, and then, tradition says, the .net profit was in the increase of the negro. Thing? have changed, labor has to be handled by the example of the white man and the soil almost exhausted. It was a lonely time indeed, about the first of June, Avith no stand of cotton and depending on it almost alone to pay for every thing we need. I can't conceive of anything to compare the situation to, except in '86 when "the earth trembled." If we had commenced our farms with the above advised plans, by the first of June, we would have had gouil stands of cotton. Why? Because the ground would have been prepared cariv ana manured, thereby retaining moisture and giving warmth to germinate seed. Besides we would have had other crops. This lack of system and intelligence has reduced the cotton crop onehalf. But fortunately the corn crop is good, and if we can only meet our obligations this fall, the outlook for another year is rather encouraging-, as the bnying of corn and raeal runs up our accounts so euormously. The bortage in cotton will bequiteabjow, coming at this time, wlien the farmers are just organizing and need money. But let us redeem this beautiful Godtavorod country of ours, with its lovely climate and longevity, free American government, inhabited by the moit patriotic and courageous people on the face of the earth, that will grow almost anything we need if properly handled. With these ideas prediminant in my mind, I snbmit the following to the plow: 12 acres of cotton will make Bay 8 bales at 10 cents per pound, $320; 192 bushels cotton seed from said cotton at 12? cents per bushel, $23; 7 of corn at 12? bushels to the acre, at $1 per bushel. $87?; fodder off corn $15; peas off same laud planted between hills ?f corn $21; 4 acre* of oats, 25 bushels co tDe acre, 100 bushels at 75 oontfl iv>r hnshol ronrth 275; 3 acres of wheat, 10 bushels to the acre 30 bushels at $1 per bushel worth $30; 1 acre of Kaffir corn 75 bushels at $1 per bushel, worth $75 ; 2 acres of speckle peas 10 bushels at SI per bushel, worth $10; 1 acre of yellow peas for rough feed, 4 loads at $4 per load wcrth $16; 1 acre vf sugar cane for feeding stock, worth $10; 1 acre of sorghouq cane, |100 srallons at 50 cents per gallon, worth $50; being in all 31 acres and only 24 to be cultiTTn f f hi a J\}f\XXT nro ItorA f X' I Vlii UilO |/1V II 9T V MM! v $732.50 of farm produce. With this farm diversified as it is two hands with $25 to hire hoeing could work it well and gather it. Two hands and their board would cost $200 and $25 for hoeing, $225; $3 for cotton seed to plant; $1 for seed corn; $4.20 for seed oats; $3 for seed wheat; $3 for seed peas; 50 cents for Kaffir seed; $95 for feed and rent of mule and $15 for blacksmith account and farm implements. This makes the whole expense $349.70, taken from income ($732 50) leaves a balance of $382.80 in favor of crop. Ihave'ntsaid anything about manure and its cost. Any farmer can make enough manure at home, including cotton seed, to go over his en^re crop if be will fill and cleanse his stables once a month with leaves or pine straw and put in a rail pen, without covering, and left oval 6haped at top. Such a plan will only let in I water enough to cause it to decay. Now let us compare this crop with the average. Well, I don't know how many acres to say, somewhere between 1 and 40, and, all in corn and cotton. Five bales of cotton worth $200; cotton seed $15; 50 bushels corn and fodder off it, worth $55. This makes the whole ftrOD worth $270. Counting: this crop the ?ame as the other as to hands, mule rent, feed, hoeing, farm tools, blacksmithing, cotton seed and seed corn, will amount to $338, which leaves the crop*;in debt $*>8. The other gains, $382.80. Gladden'* Grove, Oct. 25, 1889. How A Lawyer in Buffalo "Was Lucky.
