The present Co ress has had a
great deal to s about Southern
war eias. inace'. a Ta(ge pa'
Ctr 1i time has been ocCnied in
diseassng tis subject. T)e R.
nublicans have done all they co(
te encon rage it in hopes of creating
a runture between the Northern
and Southern Democrats. When
IDra--, a flat-headed Democrat from
the St"te of Missouri, made his
laing speech against Southern
war claims, protesting against pay
Ino any of them. and prophecying
that the Southerners would next
ask for pensions and pay for slaves
lost on account of the "late rebel
lion," the Republicans thought the
issue had come, and expected a
family row. But when Ben Hill, of
Georgia, a Democrat and a South
erner of the straitest sect, got up
and out Dragged Bragg, their hopes
were disappointed. Hill declared
that the real, true Southern people
have always been opposed to the
government's paying such claims,
save in a few exceptional cases;
that those who presented such
claims declared themselves always
"loval" to the Federal goveinmen t;
and that such persons have no sym -
pathy from the people at large-in
sho-rt that those whom the South
erners would like to see reimbursed
for property destroyed were not
"ioval" and therefore can get no.
thing ; and that they have no desire
to see the "loyal" ones reimbursed.
ThIe 1-4th instant a bill was pre
sented to pay Juo. .J. Armstrong
81,800 for the use by the govern
ment of his wharf at Alexandria,
Ta., during the war. This was a
Southern war claim, and called
frhaspirited1 debate.
ICounger', Republican, o. :me-ugan~,
oppse the bill-said that iif the
principle wer right the federal ar
my wh1 it inVvaded theC enem-Ty
coun try should have carried along

Shelluy, Democrat, of Alaba:a,
opse all such e'lams-no Con
fdnes are present.ing such~ cla2ims
-old not v~ot for any' war climi
fromi~ his State wherein "loyalhy"
. .Bailer, Rehpublican, of Mas
sahusetts, said that 30 long as sc
ceams3 were 'resentEd there would
be n1isunderstaning and bad feeli
ns i;etweecn the two sections of
S3th Unio-opposed to all cla.imis
except these of maimed and disa
bled soldiers.
Keifer, Republican, of Ohio, crit.
icised Butler's speech, and asked
whether he favored pensioning
Confederate soldiers.
Butler replied-I repeat that
whenever the depletion of the treas
ur by these claims is over, I think
that the pity, the humanity of the
orth will take care of the maimed
of the war, and (if vou wish to know
i) I see no more reason v:hy a Con
federate soldier, maimed and crip
pled in the honest discharge of what
he believed to be his duty, should
not be pensioned than why a Con
federate General (referring to Post
master General Key) should be put
into a Republican Cabinet.
Aiken, of South Carohina, de
clared himself opposed to all South
ern war claims. He was glad to
.ear thIat some miembers onl the
Republican side were liberal enough
'to vote compe)fnsationl for damiages
to religious, educational and elke
mosnary institutions at the South.
For hisl.hs indapendence
would not permit him to do even
that. The Southernl people should

Some of these States that are eo
yparvl nw thave becomei thick y
setted, wile the Soutiern States
hac t housands ofacres of naste
lan11dS an7d Valuable resources wait
ing- for development. It has been
th op01inion of many for several
yevcars palst that immigrants were
d 0ebarred from coming South on
accou-nt of the corrapt and unset
tied condition of public affairs.
This sort of rea6oning answered
wel1 enough then but what shall
wo say now ? There is no State in
the -Union where honesty ,nd good
order are better preserved than in
this; and yet, though this state of
things has existed for over two
years, we have failed to catch a sin
gle glance of the flist approach
of the "tide of immigration" that
was expected to sweep over the
South.
The oilicial report of the Bnre'au
o' Statisties shows that during the
year ending January 3i, 1879,
eork yagan i(j7 crei i>i
anda th~at diur the mnonth of Janl
uary, 1879, 2,331 arrived at the
same port, against 1,711 for the
same month of 1878. immigration
is largely on the increase. Of a~ll
this number scarcely any have come
South. The true reason of this is,
not the 'unset lied state of affairs,
but the fact that these white for
eigners do not want to come into
comeition with negro labor. And
in this they are wise. They cannot
comlpete snecessfully wih negro
lbrin the Suh u lmt
and p;ro(netion.f are peculialy fittea
for. the negro, and howev.r we maiy
sometimes talk about his laziness,
is sLlnoiMornuss an?i ms st up)iIy,
he is the best lab)orer in thei. world
for this and' other Sonith3ern States.
For this reason, we do nlie tmhi
that theC St:a s1hu.i make any
sJpciai eflorts to enconrage 1muw1
granlts to conme here. There is
only one field open in this State
to snch people ; that is the farm,
and as we have before stated
they cannot compete with the ne
gro there. A poor' white man in
South Carolina who has no land of
his own and who is only fit for
farm work is in a condition not to
be envied.

The corn crop in thc United
States in 1878 amounted to 1,371,
000,000 bzshieis, Valued at 843t;,
800,000.
The wheat crop amouted to
422,000,000 bushels, worth $:329,
000,000.
The cotton crop amounted to
5,200,000 bales; the average price
was Si~ cents per pound. The value
of the crop was $194,700,000. In
1877 the number of bales was
4,750,000-450,000 less than in
1878-while their value was 8240, -
000.000-over $40,000,000 more
than the crop of 1878. It is
thus seen that too munch cotton
was produced last year ; the mar
kets were glutted and the prico
was consequently low. About four
fifths of our cotton crop is exported.
The tobacco crop of 1878 is
esimated at 822000,000-uch
smle than theo crop of the pre-C
cein year. .

Hom*resteadI.
J0udge Alrich rendered a very
impor'tant decision last week on the
q"uestion of homlesteau exemption.
Without giving the names of par
ties-for this we never like to do in
civil matters-the facts were as fol
lows: Judgment was obtained be
fore a Trial Justice against defend
am , andi he clained the benefits of
the homestead law. He owned no
laid. Appraisers were appointedt
to set him apart A homTe"Ud in ii
1Isolal p11roperty7. Tihe appraiseis
im-ade their return setting apart to
defendant personal piopity sp(Tci
iedO in the Con stitution as exempt
to tLl(he ount of about 3250, bit
reisod to set apart corn,. bacon.
flour and fodder. these articles, in
the judmlelt of the coisioners
not, being exempt by law. The (e
fendant moved the Trial Justice for
an order of reassignient on the
ground that the corn, fodder, bacon
an0 flour should have b mn setapart
i.o hia zfs exempt. The Trial Jus
tice decided against him, holdlng
that these articles were not exempt
except when the products of a
homestead ; that these articles were
not the yearly products of defend
ant's homestead. because he owned
no real estate, and that they were
not exempt as personal property
because they are not among the ar
ticles enumerated as exempt in the
Cons'itution.. The defendant ap
pealed to the Circuit Court. Judge
Aldrich sustained the appeal, hold
ing that the personal property of a
debtor of every description to the
ci,1oiunt of $500 is exempt. We
learn that the judgment creditor
proposes to appeal to the Supreme
Court. That Court has alread, one
or more cases Jf an exactly similar
character before it. Its decision is
awaited with interest.
The Fence.
In to-day's issue is a coinmunica
tion from F. Werber, Jr., Clerk of
the Board of County Commission
ers, in reply to that portion of the
Grand Jury's presentment relating
t o the building of the line fence. The
Grand Jury simply stated that the
price paid for the fence from Broad
River to Mr. Dominick's Little
Mountain place was high :they
made no charge or insinuation of
anything wrong in the transaction,
but ask a reconsideration-"if pos
sible." The County Commissioners
say that they took the lowest
bid they could get ; that it was~
not their fault that the price :s hig:h,
and that it is not possible to recon
sider the contract.
We are soni the fence," as it were,
and( have nothing to say one0 way
or the other.

YoR THE IIERALD.
M:ssus. EmTious: A great many
of our citizens have been puzzled,
since the trand Jury made its present
men. to kniow wa h onyCm
mils ioers wouIld dio in regard to thle
building of our Cou;ty fence. Some
of the conttraeCters them aselves asking
wther or not the Couty still pro
peUSK to complyV with the terms of its
cotractsM. In reply to this question
I :a iauthorizecd to aus-wer, yes. lloW
cnui the County do otherwise and
steer safelyv around rnmerous lawsuits
in whieb: ! tn,ust ot n.eessity faiil :
The: law directs a fence to be built
am pre cribers a mthoI d byvi which t he
cKnt::eats slall be imade; all this h:as
bLL ful Iy. fairly and Impartially ear
r:ed out with tihe results furnished
you Ii m last.
I admit that the prices agreed to be
paid for somec portions of this fence
upon a. ca nal observationa may seem
h igh, yet when C you consider that this
fnce will have to be kept in repair
fr twelv memItbs, in the face of
ren threaats of fire anad violence; that
nume rous gates haive to be erected and
that lg and widely swelling creeks
have to be crosed; and, too, when the
pice.2 paid byv other Counties on simini
lr contracts are compared with ours,
heni I thinl: that this great terror
that seized thle G rand .Jury will be
displed, and that then its memtbers
will be ental i to "sec things as they
are."
Why were ntot someC of these coam
plainers present at Alston to take coi
tracts, or to force others down to
lower prices, if the contracts arc too
high ? Thei y were certainly invited
through your advertising columns to
be with us. and the County Commtiis
sioners are ia no wisc to blame that
they were nIot there. I am sure that
the Comrmissioners would have been
more thaiu pleased to have awarded
the building of this fence to any one
of them for even one dollar less than
the present contract.
To so muech of the presentment as
regards the price paid I have niothting
further to say; but when the Grand
Jury recomnmended a "reconsidera
tion of the contract," and this too
without the consent of the parties who
have taken contracts, I itust add that
this portio)n is simply puerile.
Oucr County is to-day vecry badly
divided on this "fence'' question, and,
instead of pouring oil upton the troubled
waters, tis acttin of the GArand Jury
