J. S. Robinson's gin.j< The cotton was taken while the ground r was frozen and the thieves left no tracks. J The next day Mr. George Robertson dis- f covered a place where cotton had boon j ( burnt on the Moblev place. Soon after]' this Mr. Rowen went to the stores in tho,* neighborhood, toeiKjnire if ginned cottotr!, bad been sold. Mr. .1. L. Covin informed | j him that he liad bought about one hun-; f <lred and fifty pounds from Tom Donald- r son and Sam Arnitt. These men were 11 lodged in jail Monday night. It seems I j that they burned about two hundred aml|> eighty pounds of the cotton. | Business and Crops. i The continued rainy weather, and con- 1 sequent muddy roads, has had the effect of depressing trade sineo Christinas, nl- i though our farm?rs are in better condi-1 < tion, as to supplies, than they have been IJ since the war.

Thousands of parents have to answer it either wisely or unwisely. Some of them, though this class constitute the minority, give 'his suliject niuch thought, rend the views of ({liferent writers j upon it and endeavor to elicit tlie opinion of; liaise from whom they have reason to believe Lliey will receive information. Most of tliem | liowever. do not lose a moment's sleep in eon- j iiderinjr how tlieircliildreti shall receive their j iea?lemic training, but just let thiiins takej their course, either wholly indifferent or,at least, but little concerned. Somo crude thoughts on this subject 1 propose to advance j is tlie result of my own limited observation j uid experience. As to the proper age fori ?t-irt in:; children to school many teachers and | iweiits d I tier in their opinions. Tlie axes live, j :ix. seven, eight, and ten?all have their advocates. Six and seven are perhaps the most] !>opular ages, and tlie.v are endor.-ed by the, .'duca>ioual laws of most States. I'cople frejuen i ly eir here by reason of the fact that they lo not look at the subject from a sulllcioiitly iviilo find ( iinmri>lw>iKi vr> ul^niiini'tit Ki'ivi nvi* ' liey hnv<* known children (naturally bright. j i point which they frequently overlook) to] dart to school sit ten and in the course of two :r three years easily outstrip others who commenced at six or seven, they dogmatically as;ert that it is folly to send a child before It is en. In my iiwii Judgment it is unwise to start i child to school at an earlier ape than six. It always strikes me us unnatural and indeed is savoring of cruelty when I seen little child i >f only live years ol age at school and subject I ;o the restraints necessary for older children, i \t tii is unuler age, home is the better school,! tnd fun and frolic more agreeable and at the lame time more wiiolsouie studies. Kight | icre I know the advocates of the kinder-gar-j en system claim for it special merit, but vliCtlicr they can sustain themselves or not [ lea\c for those better informed than 1 am to IceHe. Now as to the course of study I take It for minted that every candidate for lnatrieulaion at college will be drilled in all o! thefunlametital studies and will go up to the college vltha well rounded academic training. Hut el us lay aside the idea of preparing lor cole-:c and say a word with reference to the imlortance of uillerent studies taught in tiie' oinnion schools. I presume every teacher, it j natters not how short his experience, knows veil that arithmetic stands highest in the es- ] imation of mo?t parents. Heading, spelling, i uid ttie elementary principles of grammar| night to be valued more highly. If these ar? nastered. the foundation of a good common | ?chool education at least will be well laid. 1; vould emphasize the importance of gram mar. i [t enables the child to express Us II.oughts] learly and with discrimination. As furnish-! lie it disciplinary mental process it is invaltable,lor it requires the pupil to do that vhieli is alt-imp irtant, namely, lo think.

Society, in its organized i tale", T? T:r?t _?| 1! I?o (tie jjlili vidua] system.J ivhieh, when seized will" . desperate malady, I jeyond eontr"! of usual prescriptions, re..tires resort to desperate remedies: so, lvlien the ordinary hygiene falls to secure a nealthy suite, there is in society a sort of vi.i | iimlicnlrir naturae, a power ot sclf-prcserva-l lion, which will always assert Itself under I ;lven circunistances. This principle was il-l lustnited In tho lynching of the Harmon j murderers. It was present, hut marvelously refrained from asserting itself, on the occasion of the Franklin murder. It Is not my purpose to attempt to justify such acts, or to vindicate those who took part In the recent proceedings at Abbeville. >ly only object is to direct, public attention to the necessity of | i-orrecting the evils that give occasion fori such nets. The parties who lynched Dave Uoherts were no more actuated by the spirit | of a murderer, than were those who lynched ' the Harmon murderers; both acts were in vi- j nlation of the letter of the law. The number uf men s i id to have been engaged in both instances Is a guarantee that there were good men among them. There are not forty while men in Abbeville county who would conspire to commit murder. In cither Instance, they must have been impelled by some controlling sense of a common wrong inflicted upon the community for which the law Drovided no adequate redress. The assailant of I)r. Kiugh | designed to murder him, and thus to cover up j ill 1 truces of his mlnorofienseof larceny. The , i.dense of cotton stealing has nrevailed to stich an extent in this ami the adjoin Inn counties that it lias exasperated the people beyond measure. One planter estimates ills l>>ss In one season, at llt'ty bales o# cotton. What ir.av a man not he expected to do under such circumstances, in defense of his property, when he cannot protect himself by the laws of the land, and If a community is thus utfected, what less is to he expected of that community? Law ts tHe creature of emergency, and to be efl'cctivc it must not fail to meet that emergency. In the early history ol this count ry, horse stealing was carried on to such an extent that it became necessary to make it a capital offence. The only diflerencc between stealing a horse then, ami stealing fifty bales of cotton now. Is, that in the former instance, the thief, for a small consideration risked his neck, in the lattel instance, for the handsome proceed of fifty bales of cotton, he risks a few years Imprisonment, for which he has little dread. I*know that the penalty fixed by law for stealing from the field has"been thought to be too severe; that the stealing of ii lew roasung-ears is n?o insignincsint a maiinar to justify so severe a penally as a protracted terfn of imprisonment.. It is Just sucli sentiments as these that result in lynching. It is not ttillicult to conceive how a man may loose his entire corn crop by the process of stealing roastimr-ears; then followsthe loss of his supply ot bacon. Fifty hales ot cotton are as;-related by a few pounds taken atone time, and a few at another; t lie result is a resort to lynch law, and the danger is increasing that it may be resorted so 011 Insullici.mt pretexts. The practical question is, how will it be prevented? No jury will ever convict the community from which its venire is drawn. I have never heard of a case of lynching in which a single individual cngaecil In it was ever punished by the laws of the land. The point I wish to make is. that the condition of the country which Induces a resort to lynch law (is of much more consequence than the act of lynching it>elf. They bear the same relation to each other as cause and etlect. Our circuit judges have announced to the trrand Juries that crime is on the increase. This announcement necd'nt surprise us when we consider that so larsre a proportion of our population arc roving idlers. Idleness begets destitution and want; these lead touets ot larceny, robbery, burglary, arson and the whole catalogue of crimes. This is the most fruitful of all the sources of crime and it is vain to hope for a state of reformation until a most stringent vagnini, law is maue ot lorcc anu applied. This, with the erection of the whipping post Cor certain offences will restore the country to its normal condition,an<l lynching will become obsolete. It Is folly to ignore the situation. Something should bo done to secure a more healthy condition. We have a vagrant law on our statute books, but it has been a dead letter ever since It ceased to apply to white men alone. A temporizing policy will not do in the face of such stupendous facts ns those which give rise to this communication. A lynching party. In point of power, is only second to the organized militia of the state. What then must be the magnitude of the evil, which gives occasion for such Irregular and spasmodic demonstration of power. by intelligent and otherwise orderly men. Let those who arc entrusted with the lawmaking power and with shaping the general policy of our State, seriously consider thesi matters of so great public interest. Ke?pectfully. \V. K. BLAIvE.
