For the Times. LETTER FROM CHARLESTON. Chaui.kston July 4 1877. "The whirligig of Time" has once more s brought around the once glorious 4th.?"the < birthday of American Independence" ? which i used to be ushered in with the booming of artil- t lery, the sound of martial musio nnd the rhetor# ical tlourUhcs.of iwUliuul bul^thc | whirligig of Time brings about its revenges," ( too. We have lived long enough to find out that lessons of the past may be forgotten?that "J/?/yna C/mrtu is but littlo more than a blank paper w'ten impious men bear sway." ( Here, in the old city by the set, where oft 1 -auld Piuckney, Ilaync, Hamilton, (jrnyson were wont to electrify tlio people by their patriotic eRusions, the day is given up to tho "noo" Amer- I icau citizen, who turns out,armed und equipped 1 in gay uniform, to celebrate a day which neither 1 gavo him his freedom, socially or politically.? ^ Rut "what's Hecuba to liiin or he to Hecuba?" lie is bout upon having a good lime of it, and appropriates a day as quietly as lie would any other personality. But it is all very well?the glorious associations of tho old -1th are embalmed r in the past?wo have begun a "1100" epoch? t Olet its celebration bo committed to those who ^ may see ill it any semblance of deliverance ami ^ liberty, _"llail Columbia, Happy Luud 1" is played out. You have doubloss noticed that the Chamber of Commerce has accepted the invitation of the | Cincinnatti Chamber of Commerce to visit that ^ city, and lest the'quality of .lint sore-headed v Cincinnattiau who complained that he had not j been treated with civility by the Chariest on ians | ?had not been, forsooth, introduced to the ladies and made a lion of. That gontlcmun will have a chance now of walking out the CincinOnatti Belles. It is unfortunate that the Charleston delegation contains so few beaux on its list. The Chamber of Commerce has a very complacent way of removing obstacles. The Committee s appointed by it to do the Lcgislatureon the usury law, reports "that the further consideration of ^ the question was naturally influenced by the ^ representations of the opinion of the Chamber of Cominsrce." It is worth noting, moreover, that the Committee appointed by the Chamber Jt* to report on the cause of a decline in the jobbing trade of the city, ask leave to report that ( he subject matter is so extended and the difficulty ^ of obtaining facts so great, as will demand much j] time and labor, report progress, and ask for furs' thcr time?and that will be the end of it. .> Whenever you run against the S. C. llailroad j in Charleston, you will find yourself running ^ roumi'M a circle, and soon ending where you ^ & began. But there is a better day coming. The U. IS. Supreme Court has made another decision e iu favor of the Grangers, and public opinion j will not bo pooh-poohed down much longer on j a subject of such vital importance to the work- j ing classes. The burden?whether it be taxes, M discrimination, or what not?ultimately falls uj>on the farmer. . U The New York Journal of Commerce, in com- ^ 1114*111 i 11(4 u|?*u uvjt Until O "BOn 1 o trrj jj sensible suggestions. A western paper charges to the l.aw regulating Railroad freights the loss . of $7"?,tK)D,000 in the depreciation of Railroad stocks ami bonds in Iowa. Rut, says the Jourmil of Commerce, in other States, where there is no regulation of Railroads, the decline in the ( face value of securities representing that kind j of property, has been at least as bad, and in some instances even worse. The trouble in the rail- ^ roads in Iowa, is not caused by legislation, but by the overbuilding of lines, by corrupt or weak managements, and ty the universal depression of business. If the Railroad Companies, instead of com- , plaining of the State law, pnssc l for the protection of the public against their rapacity, would ( ?ut down their working expenses and practice .

There is a vast deal of good sense in (his and more Railroad than the Iowa ones could be benefited by its observance. ? ? - i'lttCKs or Cotton. ?H clow is the price of upland cotton at New York for each cotton year from 1810 to 1861, inclusive, with ( accompanying figures showing the Ainciican c crop for each year.

It is valuable as mulching, more val- t able when used as provender and as an absorent in stalls and lots. Kvcry planter will aprcciato the difference in condition of land after otton and wheat. If 1 have erred in my estimates it is on the ide ot cotton. Figures, or rather estimates, arc very dcccpive, when applied to profits from cotton?csiccially so iu the remuneration of labor. Aud ust here is the pitfall to many cotton planters -1 mean excessive or exclusive cotton planters, i 'hey seem to forget or uudcr-csiinmtc the cost. 1 Ivory planter knows that it takes twelve months ' iard and constant toil to produce and market a | lenvy cotton crop. Candor require* thut I give the result of an xpcrimcut 1 made last year: In December 1 875, 1 resolved on a big thing in cotton forl876. ( sowed a smaller area than usual in wheal, reneed the area in corn, sowed no oats; in a i'ord 1 prepared for "the big cotton crop." 1 < ucccedcd to my satisfaction in cotton?made a * ig crop.' The small area in corn with the June 1 roslu l _ . .iru.wa. w - --??- - ? , avc had to buy?and Oh; how hard to trot and , ay for. One bushel made at home is worth i wo abroad. I 1 saw my down grade start in December last, > 1 put on binkes by sowing more wheat, oats nd clover, and planting more corn and less coton. This one experiment will be :t life-long csson to me. i Mr. A. F. Kendrick threshed, 1800*bushels ' irhent last week within 1A miles of me; set the mahine 11 times. He runs a "Vibrator" thresher ?captiously called the Elephant. It is an clediaut in a good sense. Mr. J. 11. Gall man is n the field with a Farquhar machine doing good vork.
