January 1. : : 1 r!90 The Bsrtwell Lynehioz The lynching of eight negroes at Barnwell is one of the most inhuman. Tin warrantable and diabolical crimes i eve* committed- in the State of South ! Carolina. Lynchin* is a most dangerous mode of sat:sfying public! revenge: and if ever excusable, it is | only for the commission of one single crime, which we shall not now specify, i The Barnwell criminals were charged with murder; they had never been tried by a jury. And what adds to the horror of the deed committed by the Barnwell mob, is that they actually murdered witnesses retained in jail. To have lynched the murderers would only show that the mob carried | within their breasts unconscionable, I wicked and depraved hearts, but to brutally murder the witnesses retained in jail is an act ?-lose akin to the work of devils. We must have a greater respect for the dignity of the laws of the State. Edward Atkinson's Idea. The Popular Science Monthly lor January contains a paper prepared by Edward Atkinson and presented to the New England Cotton Manufacturer's Association in October last, in which he treats: 1. Is the present number or J be recent increase oi cotton spindles in the United States actually or relatively in excess of the reqoirements of the population? 2. is the South likely to become a formidable competitor with New England in the cotton manufacture? In the discushion some rery interesting statistics and facts are produced from which is deduced the conclusion that the present product of our mills is not in excess of the requirements, and that New England msy net "borrow trouble fr?m any competitor in Southern factories." Mr. Atkinson nufres his coinpu taiions, so far as the cot>>u<uption of manufactured fabrics iu the South is concerned, from 1870 the time when the worst effects of the war had, in part^ be^-overcome, and from which "" " period to 1880 that soctiou made a fair beginning in their progress, when at least the new progress of the New Sonth began with leaps and bounds. Another im[K^t^rtr^'l^r-la--^'^^i^ Ttr?^e^?Kject is the large peicentage of the Southern people who wore up to 1880 homespun or hand-woven xabMvtimaiP/] ?f fnrlv ii#?r cent. Allowing this proportion, in 1860 5t235, 727 spindles bore the ratio ot one spindle to each 5.05 of the remaining population; 1S70, 7,132,415 spindles, one *pi?die to 4.92 of the remaining population; I880(wh< n the number of home spinners ajd weavers* was confined to only a tew in the mountains of Kentucky and N?rth t-arolina,) 655, 435 spndles, one spindly 4 71 oi iue ivuii r iSgjj, Ikt l?t, 14,lT5,Cu'j, s!,in<i!rfct dlc to 4 c2 probable } oj?u a i>?n 0f c?uuiri.

While amusing it is sad to soe the great effort Mr. Atkinson makes in discussing the second subject?will the South become the piincipal site of cotton manufacture iii the United Statgtto console his fellow New Etiglanders in th^ir groat apprehension Was "the sceptre shall depart" from them. It is in this p*rt of the pap r that the true object of the "rent e?onon?w i? wade manifest. being (heciicoaragiug of the New England mills a?>d the tliscouraging of the Southern mil's. After stating in a partial way some nf thA fftctk'. hp mnrlnilfit iiv ?ccnrimr his friends his confidence that they may "bold a long lead." In 1870, according to Mr. Atkinson, MP^mdles HpPrcted so lunch SB?8-89 there were 259 P^nactories with a total number p&orie million three hundred and fortyfour thousand live hundred and sexcnty-slx spindles in operation, with thirty-one thousand four hundred uud thirtv-five loum>. The ntimber of yarn made was a fraction finer than formerly. Deducting the few large mills Mr. Atkinson averages the mills at 4000 spindles each, ami then informs as that sm.ill isolated mills cannot sue ceed. He seems to overlook the fact that these small isolated mills will become mill centres. The iudttbtrv is still in its infancy here in the South, but its growth within ihe pa>-t decade has been "certainly vc-r\ r.-ipi i." The i wmr>eiH>5 of ttie South'* yrs's is ! jriven as a rt'??tu win \\t. >ui:ecs? i fuu\ *r. Why csii'l nc make ! r wmi ? Toe I fin . .inn run j be ite!ivi-r? ii t?

Yes, Mr. Atkinson, the South, that section of this great country which was desolated and iuiDoverished by confiscation and robbery by the very people you addressed in October, is springing into a manufacturing: people at a rate which justly causes alarm among the "protected infants" of the bloated Spindle Kings of New England.

OUJi PHILADELPHIA LETTER, Philadelphia December 26. Christmas, with all its festivities and pleasures, has come and gone, and apparently has been a merry and happy one' to Philadelphia. The weather was as clear and beautiful as even the most fastidious could desire, and indeed seemed more like our genial Southern climate than what we naturally expect so far north; and is remarkable as being the mildest winter that has been experienced here for ! many years. Many of the principal j places of business closed on Christmas day, and the whole city appeared in its" gala dress for enjoyment. The ct-Aroc o-n/l Vmil/'linora r?n ffiA m#?n -decorated. | and festooned with evergreens and I flowers, and the busy, pushing throng j on the streets, when seen by electric j light, made a beautiful and impressive I spectacle. While there is so much here that indicates -wealth and refinement, and to one unused to such, it is a wonder how so much wealth or its equivalence could be gathered in one place. Yet the other extremes of lire of poverty and squallor seem, come out just on such festive Occasions as this, pressing thei1; claims for a meagre show of the onarities of their more fortunate fellowmen. It does seem that poverty and wealth go hand in hand in the great struggle for existence, and there is such a large class of poor, dejected, unfortunate men and women here in tliese great cities that we of the South know so little of; and just in these happy occasions when the wealthy and ^ AI><- 111 l\Acf I tfuntru wiiiu vnit i?? utvu i/v-k >uuwt made "suits and all the world seems bright, they are jostled by and confronted with evidence of misery and poverty of which many of them have no conception. Philadelphia, though, its rhit.v lioblv in the wav of charities, and I suppose there arc few cities: wore thoroughly equipped for charitable work than she. One of the daily newspapers had popularized itself very much by inaugrating just previous to the holidays a "Christinas fund" for the purpose" of distributing to the poor of the city some present or to ameliorate the suffering condition of those unable to keep themselves-and quite a handsome sum was realized. Some time during the holidays every year the various civic ana military organizations of the city have a large parade, and it has grown to be one of the most pleasant and interesting features of the season's gaities. They all decorate with wreaths" and flowers a statue of Wasliington just in front of Independence Hall and prizes are offered for the best displays by the different organizations. Speaking of Independence Hall, I took occasion one day to walk through it and see some of its relics and curi osities, tor it is a veritaoie curiosity shop of revolutionary relics and trophies. I suppose, historically,.it is the most celebrated landmark of American Independence and of course has in it a great deal that is interesting from association. On one side, a large room, is the hall in which the Declaration of Independence was signed and the old chairs and desks are still in their original positions, and ihe quaint old chandelier that lighted up the hall with its tallow candles otill hangs in the centre, and doesn't seem much the worse for its age. The museum is in a ruuiii jii9t uppvwic ami jluii vi an kinds of war trophies and many things that were linked with our earlier colonial history and the struggle for freedom. The "Old Bell," of course, is the most conspicuous piece of furniture, and is securely hung from the reach of the "relic fiend," winch is a very wise precaution. There are picj tures in the hall of the surrounding j neighborhood as it was a hundred ; years ago, with its tives and ponds. i armparincr nlmnsf n emmtrv Inm? | sc ipe scene,, and one has only to look | at it as it is now to be impressed with ! the immense development and imI provements that the city lias undergone : in the last century, and it is typical of i the progress of the whole country. | I shall some day give your readers j some account of the Quakers and the important part they have played in the building up and development of this city. O. P The News and Herald: ^^^vas so well pleased with the reterkin cotton growth of stalk,, fruitage and yield of lint from 100 lbs. of seed cotton, I decided last year to plant with Allen, a long staple, in a way to improve the lint and make it the most nnlnnrl cotton nl:mt<>fl. I se- I lected a place in mv garden, where ! corn generally has been planted, and had rows laid ofi' four feet apart properly prepared, and planted three feet in the hill, as follows; first, Allen in all the rows, next, Peterkin, next Allen, then Peterkin and so on to the end of the rows, last being Allen. It was thinned at the proper time to two stalks in the liill, cultivated in the usual way, topped about the first of August and made a good yield. On bringing- it to notice of some of my I visiting friends, it was thought the^ lint of the Peterkin thereby improved.; Iu order to give it a more thorough test, I decided to plant the s .me plat this year as follows: A deep furr?w ! was run in tin; old middle and lo- manure applied broad oast, and Jiobson'i corn and cotton food strewn i:i the furrow at the rate of about 20J pounds per acre, and beds prepared in the usual way. On the 2\)th or April i liad it planted as above slated, with the pure Allen seed and the hybridized Peterkin, and did not get over half stand from drought, except one of the out. side rows. I had it replanted after the rain of the 30th of May, and after getting a stand, thinned to one stalk and worked mostly to keep weeds and grass from injuring it, and never a plow used o-ftnv thft rvP .Tnlr vxuuV,a.m about the first of August. I noticed the top of three stalk were bitten off at last plowing- which looked to be the best fruited and matured the earliest. On replanting I had two more rows adjoining planted in the same way. I have kept a correct account of yield dv weignmg witii draw scales at tne different, pickings and will now give the result. On first row having 18 stalks, 13 early and 5 late, I picked good weight, 23 pounds. The late stalks were not n?ar as well fruited as the early, which I believe made twice as much, as the bolls were smaller and seed not maturing as well; did not weigh as much in proportion to numbers as the early, and not less than 25 pounds would have been made had the live late stalks been early. Cotton planted in rows 4 feet apart gives 52 rows to the acre and 3 feet in hill, 70 stalks to row and 3,640 to the acre. IfJ18 stalks yield 25 pounds 3,640 will give, in same proportion, 4,651 pounds of seed cotton per acre, and if of Peterkin 4 bales of lint, average weight 46.5 pounds, and at 25 pounds would give 5,055 pounds per acre, and 5 bales to weigh 511 pounds each. If this can be done on a small plat of land, with no extra manuring, why can't it on a larger area. On the next 3 rows there wci*e 53 stalks, 23 early and |30 late, from which were picked 53 pounds, yielding at the rate of 3,040 pounds per acre. The two I lncf- ivyotc nlavitori thp "Icr. nf Afn.v liar? 33 stalks, which yielded 19 pounds, giving 2.092 to the acre, over three times as much as is generally made on field crops, and showing a great difference in the yield of early and late cotton this year, and in sections where injured by early frost made very little, as with us there was none to "do injury to cotton before' the 29th and 30th of November, and the most of the bolls matured sufficient to open. As the above statement of yield has -been made from careful observation, I have endeavored to make it known in a way to be fully comprehended by your farmer readers. It my life is spared and health will admit I expect to continue my garden experiments -mtlL. cottQj4-~4rr distance in rows and hill, topping the 20th of Jaly and 1st cf August, if weather suitable, and not topping and cultivated so as to obtain the largest yield, at the least cost; also an acre or more outside, so I can extend the cottun ax*ea and give corn a trial on upland.
