The tiekt 'Biekner drew 1and lot No. 7. on whichla.greater pordon of Atlanta is VOW uilt. VitChell claimed that he1uad'peirchased'Biekner's.ticket, and took quiet pssession .of te lot. He sold divers portionsof it to the people hoocked toA 6tanta,.and gave apor tion of it to t&e iailroads for depots. amJ this property is that over which the MitWhe -heis are now contendimg. Iatters rem;ai6ed in this condition un til 1849,.when Mr. 'Allen Johnson, thie Sheriff ofDfeKalb'County, discov ered .that. no. iecord existed of any transfei- by Biekner to Mitehell. He diseoier'ed that Bickoer had remioved t~ Putnanii County, and accordingly went to Putnam County and found thiat ickner had, died. He accordingly administered on 1$ickner's estate, and camesbaeksto Atlanta, which was thien in D)eKalb Cunty~ and advertised the property for sale at regular admnistra tor'.s'sale2 This,. as nmight naturally have boen4 expected, produced a great exeitenrent among those who. purchased from Mitchell. Col. C. .R. Hanleiter. hk* then editing the A tlanta Alis e:lafty, wrote a series of ai-ties, at taeking -Johnson -and huis party for fraud in attempting to disturb the ti - ties to so-miuche property, and got up a grreat excitement among the people. 'Ar. James -Loyd -who formerly kept interested with Allen Johnson. He was in Col.

Itwas au .oeeaion of intense ex eittoment, and at regular mob was raised to stop the proceedings. As this, lhcweyer, did not settle the question of title, and as Johnson.still persisted in his claim, the piireha.seir~froml Mit chell becua uneasy, and they calleJ (An the repiesentatives of Mitchell 'to miake good their warranty. As Niit de in the meantime had died also, Green, who was executor of Mitehell, ea ie to Atlanta, and sought an inter view Allen Johnson, at the Atlanta HLtdl The mnatter was 't.emporarily compr~omised, it is suppose'd,by giving .Johnson tities to soine of thme pro.perty. *In this condition, the matter has re 'mainmed until within a few days past. when- a new elidmn'ut sprung up in the -heirs' .cof one Joseph Camp. It wtuld, therefore, appear that the t'tle to this immense property all depends unono the saie of a lottery ticket, and de heirs of Caimp allege that the fail ure of 'Mitchell and Johnson to pro duce the record of this sale was not c,wingo to carelessness in not tr.anserib ing it, but to the more important fact that Bickner had made actual transfer of the ticket to Joseph Camp, the an eestors of the claimants. .Joseph CamIp was a lawyer of somec proinenkcelC, who . moved from South Uarolina to Madison, Georgia, and af terw~ards~ inoved to Columbus. (iie * was one of what were calied the "orig ilm:d sixteen Camups," this naume aris il: from the fact that about three gelecrations ago a Mr. Camp settled in North Carolina. and had sixteen sons, ,ll of' them he:dthy. s trapping fellows. whoi h?av since raised large families of' children. It is custoumary whIen one Celpes auother to ask, "Arec you - eseended from the original sixteen ?" If so, relationship is at at on1ce estah lis.hed.) Shortly after Mr. Camp went to Cobuubus, he b>eeame engaged in a duel with Woolfolk. This duel was quite notorious from the close quarters at whichl the parties were ph:c'ed. We remember to have heard - Woolfolk's second. describe it, and it i1.adel a strong~ imnpression upon our '..uthful mind. They were to light onl 'ndy t Girard. Sunday. Wool f de and his s-eond rode out in a bg -vto surver the gronud.

His second remarked, "You .!ave carried Camp with you." "The turn me over and let me see him .die," ivere Woolfolk's last words. Camp .tfterwards got into a difficulty on the +tretM-v ColumbswithrMr.-Mito in which he was killed. Milton then :emo,ved to Florida, was elected Gov 1rnor, and subsequently became ad licted to drink, and ended his life by suicid-e a few fears ago. ,About two.years since, Dr. Thomp .4n receivdd,adetter from a Mr. H.

He paid'! little attention to it, as he had. never heard of any, and. wrote lightly about it to Mr. Su.livan. : If the facts of .this case are such as alleged.by the heirs of Joseph Camp, it.is very sin giultr that they have;:slept solong over their rihts. It may be that the ter rible tragedy 'by which Joseph Camp lost his life produced sueh:grief that it. caused Mrs. Camp ith her chil dren to nve back to Spartanburg, South Carolina. The ownership of this lot has remained as a tradition in the family, until a .distinguished law yer. who married one of the daughters, hearing of it; commenced the invesii ation.

Through it lies the road to success in :whatever buiness a man may undertake. It is the characteristic of abuost:every man. profesional or non-profe3ssional mier. chant,.mechanie or farmer who has property -through honest mneans. Added to industry it is certain to geere a competency to the possessor, while on thie other har.d the - largest etate will eventually dwindle to noting if the economic rulestare dis rearded, The dropping df a few grins of siiidat iti me, before we are aware of it1 drains, the hout glass. A lak in the tauk soon leaves it empty. As by adding little by little fort-unes ae built up, so by uselessly subtracting little by little they are torn downi. The .;unt -f carefully and frugally using uieaus by preventing::Iwast.c pad avoiding extravragance has been thie source -of untold want arnd fmancial distress. To.t;his is largely at tributa ble the d.imress whieb.now.prevails in our business circles; if' not thbrough the fault of the business men themselves, through the fault of others whose thriftless habits prevenit them from paying debts carelesly incurred.. So that the e tils. of extravagant habits fall not only upon the unfortunate posessor, but upon those who trust him. While economy is a virtue extrava g~ance is a vise. or ini nine cases out of ten leads to vice. One leaids to po periy, the other leads to ruin and disgrace. Onie builds up, the other pulls dowa. One promotes ease and strengthens credit, the other inj ures health, destroys credit and squanders prperty. The former encourages self denial, the latter engop.rages self indulgence: The former produces, the latter consumes. One is respected by all, the other is winked at by those only who reap the profits. Tt is often said that it is not hard to make money but the trouble is to keep it. This is true, for almost everybody has the acothi.s exgendendi. Too . uch money is spent on dress, too much on. the table. too much on trifles, too much on pleasure, and it is no wonder tht the exchequer is empty before we are aware of it. This itch for spendi;~g j.s not the peculiar property of, but largely possessed by our young men, and it is for them we are writing tis ragged artile. They are, it is possible, just sarting or preparing to start business. They should beware thne leaks, for the energies. as well as the income go through th@nei The. prudent hus. bandig of ail their yesouges will be neesary to carry themn along pros. perously. The winds of poverty whis tle through the cracks of thoughtless and useless debt. They must look out r ofxrammgance that steals Trade with Charleston. A revolution in trade is made ne eessary by the difileuties lately expe. rienced, and which will be felt for months tocone. Merchants generally are waking to the, fact that the. oUy successful plan of trade is a cash one. .with quick sales jand short profit This can be biiiy^be dohe o small and judiciously selecd .stocks -f goods, and bought just as oocasion, requires. The layJng irf heal-toks thre >r4 four seasons of the ear at large cost, oIniirty, sixty and ninety days, and selling on the eipectation-of payideint some time during the year,rwill not do, and we imagine will scarcely beV donie again. These large stocks. too, are purchased in distant markets W ith the addition of tntvelling expenses, long freight andcoiaequent delays'in their tee'ption. These iteins too, had to be paid in cash. A conyparison may well be drawn here between this and the advantages offered by purchasing at' a nearer market-Charleston. The country trade can be as well supplied fromi there t.s elsewhre-anid the merchant' can run down at a'irifli-ng expense, lay in a'few-thOusand doll.rs worth, and replenish by telegram bider, or letter, whatever artieles .dre needed as' they run low, and which can be done with little delay. The prifits of trade, too,"are S%W.lowed up in 'having on hand lare' stocks of goods, whih often lie on the shelf Ut1il theybccom e rusty, musty'pr moth-:eat,n- Much of this' dan> e avoiid by smali pchaies ina'de at the uiost convenient point. A small business on -the cap prin.ciple is a. afe one, and a rapid turniing ovei of stck is-alivays attractive to bayers ..They like to s"e goodS coI.ing in. We honestly believe ouig merely;ts would realize more success i basiuess'if this plan were generally adopted. We have no doubt too, thlat Ch-alestoni can and will offer -such inducenients in-. prices and accommodation as will conduce to the interests of the -up-eountry m6r chants. And this added to the saving in- time and expense of extra travel will give a decided advantage over the practice heretofore in vogue. Cumulative Voting. It is strinuge to us that so little is fshid of the syltem of" cuinlative voting. Maj. Delany alided to it' in his letter to En~oeiate Justice Wright *recomiiendinig -its adoption'by the people of this State,'and the taxyayes' mnemorial to the>43deral 'Admbly brought it- to 'the' attention of that bdasone of the means of remedying our' political Nil' ~bit 'with this tlie matter has droppedjand there seen s to be but a very feeble endor emnent <f 'the.plan'by thepress and the peop?e. It is v-ainito hope.for the adopt;on uf this system by the party is power, for it is unknown in the history of politics for'a party kniowingly to yield any canU be avoided. It is doubtka~s true that those who now desire this plan of electing representatives avould fail to make a like concession were they in power. l)emnociats and Coisetvatives in thei- States who have"the majority do not trouble 'thimselves to increase the power of the opfosinit party. There is but one State in the Union, if ielare informned correctly, in which mrinority represetitation is secured. aird that is the State of Illirroi, which is hirgely-'Republican. But however this may be 'i does not alter'the fact. that ths exchisive *rule of the numerical mnajority is wrong and' that minority representation is rgt The 'sytei of cumulative voting or minority r.epresentation may be ex plained as f'oilows : 'R Newberry County is enttle to five representa tives in the 'General Assembly, each quali8ed voter would have the privi lege of five votes, which may be divided among the soyeral candidlates, or cast collectively as hre sees fit. 80, if the Republicans of the County were three fifths 'and the Democrats two fifths of the voting'~population, the former by umulating their votes could elect three and' the latter two in the- same mannier.' For i pistance, say the quali fed electors of this County are twenty five hundred; fifteen hundred of whom are Republicans and ten hundred are Democrats. Each man having five votes, in case five representatives are to be elected, the former would poll a vote of seyenty-five hundred and the latter fifty hundred. The formev umulating their votes on thr:ee of the candidates would give to each of their candidates twenty-five hiun dred votes, and the latter by the same process would give the same nmber to each of their candidates, thereby electing the live who would fairly represent the conflicting interests according to num ber, the majority still controlling as is poper, but the minority having a voice in the gos ermuent, as the plainest dotat,gs of justice leujaud. It seems sti'ange to us, lookiug at it from a stand.point of justice and liberty, and not of party greed and love of power, that this boasted gov enent has not long ago inaugurated a system so plainly just.
