THETEN PROSPEROUS STATES* Following the deficiency of the crops in Europe, inevitably came prosperity for American agricultur ists. Blessed with superabundant harvests of all grains, and having a ready market for them at high prices, they are making money; and the long looked for revival of business has taken place. All business is con ducted on wealth created by the producers. If the class that pro duces wealth is in straitened circum tances" all classes are straitened. The unprecedented development of the Northwest, the West, and the. Southwest, and the marvellous in crease of their population, have often b^en discussed. But, with unani mity that is remarkable, our writers have overlooked the South, or re girding that section as unworthy tie attention of Northern patriots, thoy have scorned to give it the no tice that should injustice be accord ed to well deserved prosperity. It may seem a bold statement, but the 8'Ction that has been neglected by -4cr-:day-, and "has been for years, the most prosperous portion of the Union, and its prosperity rests on the mo6t stible basis. The State of Alabama, Arkansas, Florida,Georgia, Louisiana, Missis sippi, North Carolina, South Caroli na, Tennessee and Texas are known as the cotton States, since the culti vation of cotton absorbs the labor of the husbandman in that region of Oo-.ntry. The total population of the ten in 1S70 was S.272,223. The close of the war found them impoverished* Their property was destroyed. We of the North next overran them with c\rpet-baggers who stole from them, in terferred with their State governments and oppressed them in many ways. The inhabitants of the cotton States waited as patiently as they bad fought courageously, and at last re g lined the control of their own af faira. From that time the onward m neb of the cotton belt toward the ^?:^t_v^rjr^?jdejited prosperity has 0f]S7o y^^&^OS^IrS^^S^^ \ them, and .they justly rejoiced over the result. For the year ending on Jnue30,lS79, the domestic exports from the United States amounted in value to a total of $717,093,777. Of this vast sum the ten cotton States with their scanty population, a-e credited with $102,304,250 for their cotton aloue. Over twenty-two pel een t. of the value of our exportation waa received for a crop grown by less than twenty per cent, of our population. The Republican press of the North is so habituated to describing the people of the South as riding up and down their lonely roads, engaged in their only occupation-except drink ing whisky in low bar rooms-of shooting and torturing colored Re publican, that many thousauds of worthy men in the North really be lieve this to be true. If, as the Re publicans press claims, the people of the cotton belt did nothing but loaf in groggeries, and organize and ex ecute "nigger hunts" they would all starve to death. There is an old saw that by his chips you can judge a work man. It is also true that by the cot ton bales you can judge of the work done by a people. Last year the people of the cotton belt found time to raise over 4,000,000 bales ?>f cotton for export, besides supplying the United States. It is objected by the Northern Republi cans that this work, at least the greater part of it, is done by the col ored race. Why not ? Do the own ers of the farms outside of the cotton belt do all the work that is done on them? Do not almost all of them employ and supervise it? Because man happens to be black, and works in a cottou field, he is, entitled to no more credit for simply working than is an Irish, German or American farm hand who works in the corn fields on the lean soil of New Hamp shire or the rich prairies of Kansas. Because the landless laboring class of j the South raiss cotton under the in telligent supervision of men who own land, it is not just to call the land owners cruel, oppressive and mud deroua, and deny them credit for tie work done. To read some articles written by a Northern Republican about the labor dene on Southern plan tations, one would be led to believe that the hiring of a man to work was the diabolical invention of a devilish Southern Democrat. ?L Southerners are represented as hating the North with a deadly ha tred. If this were so, they would buy no goods from Northern importers. They export much cotton, and could import meichandise if they wished What say the statistics? Th?re were imported into the United States, in 1878, merchandise, coin and bullion to the value of $466,872,840. Of this valuation but $31,128,811 entered the six Southern ports of Baltimore' Charleston, Savannah, Mobile, Ne Drleans and Galveston. The dire imports through the custom hous situated in the ten cotton States we: ?14,190,180. The exports from tl same ports were $143,282,839; they exported $129,092,650 mo than tLey imported. It is eafe state that the balance of trade la year was at least $100,000,000 in 1 vor of the cotton States. The present year has been the mo prosp?rons ever known in the Sout Not only have the cotton Stat made a large crop, estimated by cot petent authority at $500,000 bales excees of last year, but the price o tained is larger The crop of 18 bought an average of seven cents p pound. This year s picking is si ling for eleven cents per pound. It mu;t be remembered, wh judging of the p: obable future of t cotton States, that they constitute t only extentofcotton lau 1 in the wor where the pl ant can be profitably cul vated ; that where cotton cloth once used by a people it is neM abandoned, and that as long &%t\ human race increases or trade dev ops there is no danger of ari ov? production of cotton as there is wheat. All countries can grow brt a stuffs. No other country can gre cotton. The machine recently i vented by Mr. Clement, of Meraph must also be taken into consider tion. This machine is so simple th the stupid labor used in the Son can manage it without didi mit The invention enables the plante to spin, at small expense, the r< cotton into threads. It is said clean the Heed more thoroughly th; I the old giuuing machines, and it : estimated, if it be generally inti duced, tuat it will enable the pla ter to net 25 per cent, more on h cotton, while the money paid f spinning, instead of being paid to E ! lii-h and Northern spinneie, willi > paid the laborers of the S )Uth.

CUSSIFH AT10N OF COTTON. from Jndfje Wallace ~\u\h e Cen ?true rion of the Charter ol' thc Charlotte Columbia and Augusta Railroad. The case of the Winnsboro' mer chants, Elder ? Co., against th Charlotte, Columbia, and Angust Railroad, wherein the former c!airne< that cotton should Le charged freigh by weight, and the latter claimed I right to charge by measurement, am in which Judge Wallace decided in fa vor of the road, attracted no attentioi at the time and hassince been carried t( the Supreme Court. The railroac commissioner brought the same qnes befoie Judge Mackey by petition and Judge Mackey has decided that according to the company's owr construction of the charter foi thirty years, cotton should be cLs^ si?ed as heavy article and charg ed freight accordingly. In conclud ing his opinion Judge Mackey says; " But admitting that the words ol the charter are ambiguous, the prac tical consequences of the construction claimed by the 'company would be sufficient to* reject it. In Charles River Bridge vs. Warren Bridge the Supreme Court of the United States says: 'That any ambiguity in the terms of the contract must operate against the corporation and in favor of the public.' (2 Peter?, 544 ) Also other authorities cited to the same peint. It may well be held that this corporation is estopped from denying the correctness of a construction of ita eharter, which although most fav orable to the public, it has asserted and acted upon for more than a quar ter of a century. " As to the thirty pounde cubic foot theory, it was, in ray opinion, foreign to the contemplation of the legislators who enacted the charter. Nor is the capacity of respondent's care to convey articles on measure ment more relevant tc the issue. The equipment of its road is changeable at the will of the respondent, and to give judicial sanction to such an ar gument would be to erect a most variable and uncertain standard by which to measure public rights. In view of the law and the facts, it is ordered that the rule be made abso lute, and that the respondent be per emptorily enjoined from chargin" freight on cotton in bales otherwise than as articles of weight, aud that the respondent pay the costs of this proceeding." The average State taxation during these last six years of Radical rule was $1,875,500 a year. For the cui rent year, including the half million dollars for interest and $200,000 (out side of the poll tax) for the public schools, the amount taken from the pockets of the people will not exceed $075,900-a direct saving, in one year, of seven hundred thousand dollars !-Charleston Naos ?

An Old Union Man's Opinion of Graut and the Southerners who Support Him. Rc Gov. reny in Greenville Mountaineer It seem9 that we have indeed fall en on evil times when Dame Rumor ?9 trumpeting it abroad uncontradic ted that Gen. Grant ii finding favor with the Southern Democracy for a third term as President of the Amer ican Republic. That he should be the chosen favorite of Southern car pet-baggers and scalawags will not surprise any one. But that the South ern men, professing to be Demo crats, -should wish him success in 1S80 is incomprehensible. Have they for gotten the eight Hack years thatthis tyrant had his iron heel on the neck of South Carolina? Bo they remem ber that President Grant withdrew his army from the defence of the frontiers ol the United States und scattered it all over the Southern States to sustain the rogues and scoundrels whom he had placed in office to plunder and rob an impov erished and suffering people? Have they forgotten that he?lled our State House with armed soldiers and fixed bayonets to keep out the legally elec ted representatives of the State? Like Cromwell, he dispersed the Leg islature of Louisiana, and d. o\i them out of their hall at the point of the bayonet. He sent his minions to Florida, South Carolina and Louis iana to sustain the returning boards in falsifying thrr returns, and giv ing the electoral vote of those States to Hayes. Knowing that Tilden and Hendricks had been elected, and might be so declared, Graat concen trated a large military fores ia Wash ington to have Hayes And Wheeler inaugurated President and Vice-Pres ident. When first elscted, President Grant received gifts of thirty and fifty thousand dollars from wealthy men in New York and other States, ..-JL mm r . r * ^lu^uo ra meaosrs of his Cabinet. During the whole term of his Presidency he waa surrounded by such corrupt scoundrels as Bel knap, Babe ck, Shepherd and ether?, whom he protected in~their rascali ty and who are still his associates. It is a well known fact that Grant was convicted by every member of Johnson's Cabinet of palpable lying and treachery. Now, if these quasi Democrats are in favor of electing auch a mau as U. S. Grant a third time to the Presi dential chair, in violation of the ex ample of Washington and all the other American Presidente, they are either fools or Tcnave?, or unprinci pled Swiss, leady to fight undsr any bauner that will pay, and dishon or their State. South Carolina is now oace more under self-government, and ao are all the other Southern States; and God forbid that Grant atd Lis army turb these Democratic governments. It is all nonsense to talk about dis solving old partie? and forming new onea. Their principles ara inherent in our Federal Union, and must al ways exist, no matter by what name political parties may be called. The Democrats are for a strict construc tion of the Federal Constitution, and the Republicans for a latitudinarian construction of thatj great charter. The Democrats-are^injfavor of States' rights, free trade and no monopolies, self-government and the equal pro tection of all the people, on economi cal and honest administration of the Federal Government. The Republi can party, under the very riante they have assumed and disgraced, from that of Federalists to that of Repub licans, hive been opposed to the rights of the States and free trade. They have always favored monopolies and legislated for the benefit of wealthy capitalist?. They have alway? fa vored a prodigal expenditure of pub lic money and high s.ilaiies. Intimes past they luve attempted the liberty of the press and the freedom of speech. They have set the military over the civil authorities of the coun try and disregarded parsonal rights and person?1 liberty. AM tho ac cessions of territory to the*: republic have been mn de by tho Democratic par:y and bitterly opposed by the Republicans. -.-- .<r_>. - -. STORIES OF RUSSIAN TORTURE. KabattFchenko, an infirm old man, was summoned before the bur gomaster aud asked if he had brought a balance of certain taxes that were due. He begged for time. "Aa soon as I have earned something," he added, "I will pay all." Wait, you old dog," shouted the burgomaster ; 'T will find a way of aqueezing the money from you." In thetwinkiing of an eye two officials Bei zed the trembling old man, bound him to a strong post in the courtyard, and fas tened his arms with ropes to his back, the burgomaster looking OL. .'Now, old beast," he cried to the old man, who was bare-headed and mo tionless, "will you pay your taxes?" .'Christ is my witness," was tho re ply, "I have not a ?-ingle copeck." "Then you will remain where you are." "Set me free for the love of God ; my wife and children are fam ishing at home." "Pay what is due." "Have compassion on my age ; I am the laughing-stock of tho mob." "Let them lauih, old thief!" "I am faint ing," groaned the poor wi etch. "My lads, give him a t-hower bath." The officials obeyed by pouring two cans of cold water upon the man, which restored him to consciousness. "Now uubind him," commanded the tyrant, "and take him for a walk through : the streets." ThiB havingheen done, the burgomaster order-d him to be fastened to the public pillory, where ' he waa kept for the whole night. One of the old man's children, a girl of 13, brought her father a small roll. The police, seizing her, flogged her almost to death, and ultimately threw her into prison. The rain then be gan to fall heavily. Within a fort night the old man was in his grave. TUEL.IW"OFL??P ?EIR. As leap year is coming il ie well to know what the law cf leap year is. The law, it is said, takes no notice of the days, and as to the 29th of Feb ruary, it takes no notice of the whole day. The 28th and the 29th are^ computed as one day. For exam ple: .Suppose a note dated on the 28th of February, 1880, payable one day from date. Ordinarily it would be payable on the 4th of March, ani? so it is in leap year, and not on tue 3rd. In Indiana the question has recently come before the Supreme Court, in respect to service of procera in 1876, the luBt leap year. The law there rcquiresten days' previous ser vice for the entry of Judgment. In the case before the court thejnlgtnenl was premature if the 28th and 29th of February were to be computed as one day. The court said : "It must be regarded as settled in this state that the 28th and 29th days of Feb ruary in every bisextile year must be computed and considered in law as one day. It ha6 been held by this court that the English statute 21 Henry III, is of force in this state. This statute, speaking of the 29th day of February, in leap year, pro vides: " Computiti/r dies We et dieu proxime preceder?a jwo nnico die. ' (And that day as well as the day next preceding shall be computed ae one day.) This English statute is rec ognized as a part of the law governing this state. The service of the sum-, mons was not sufficient in law to jus tify either the default entered or the judgment rendered."
