While we reserve to ourselves the right of defi ning our oum political position by means of our editorial columns, tee will be pleased to publish contributions from our fellow: citizens upon aO questions which agitate the public mind; whether their opinions coincide with ours or not.

READERS OP THE ORANCtEnURG NEWS J The lust issue of your paper, announced to yon the fact of the association of a new Editor in the cowduet of the News. Ho makes his first advance then this morn ing, and while bowing to you with a formality indicative of a profound respect, at the same time extends his hand to you?frankly and cordially?the right hand of an unfeigned friendship and n genuine good will. Amid tho Varied emotions, that arise so na 0 ft tutlci ?* ? tnrally upon such an occasion, I assure you that paramount of all, is the desire that we become friends. You will remember the fable of the little animals, contending for the prise to be bestow ed by the Princess, upon tho one who bh?uld leap the farthest. The frog first advanced to the mark and mode a leap of prodigious length, to the infinite admiration of tho spce tators. Next came tho flea?who darting away up in tho air, excelled in height the wonderful achievement of the frog in leugth. Bat last Of all cane the cricket , who placing himself in front of tho Princess?at one unex pected bound, leaped;-right iuto her lap: thus defeating both his rivals and gained the prise, since at one stroke ho attained tho high- : emt position in the kingdom, and overcame the vast distance which formality placed between himself and his beautiful patron. In like ("manner my efforts?not wearying with tho length of my effusions, nor attempt ing to dactle with the height of my "flight of fancy ^-a^ahall be to come homo to your hearths and chat with you as a friend. Our paper promises to, be a "live journal"? a reality. Now everything real and material, is fallible and human, and I would avail myself of this my introduction to you, when I can af ford to be a little egotistic, and to expect a groat dpalof indulgence, to remind you of this, and to ask for myself that you "Be to my failings a little blind, ixW te ary virtoso very kind." With the presentiment that you will meet my advances Ulis mcrnimg id the same spirit in which they are made?I feel that wo shall be friends. J The1 next subject to bo treated?and au im j portant one?is "our" politics. You have seen the Salutatory in the New Year's iadiic of the News, which tells briefly and hrmostly the political position of the pa per, -in;-. . Individually and for myself I will be as honest \t not as brief. I A participant in, and a severe sufferer by ' the result of the lato war, I have mourned with the fond pathos of youth at. the grave of "The Lost Cause"?-the mausoleum of a per ished - Idea,?around - which were clustered, amid the' grand drapery of its funeral cypress and the perennial laurels of its glory?the buds and flowers of my own heart's hopes. ! But standing at its grave?beholding its furled banner, and its arms "grounded" for ever, I have realized that it "belonged to the Past," with its heroism,its romance, its mighty disappointment, "gone glimmering with the things that- wcro." And with the realisation that it, with its hopes, its prejudices, its civili sation was "dead forever/' I havo turned to the future, and realized the necessity of new effort. Tempora mutantur nos et mutumur in Ulis. Amid tho Hocial disorganization, tho finan cial and commercial prostration, the political revolution, and the ruins, incident and integ ral to the results of the war, a new civilisation has dawned, which despite ourselves must achieve Us denouement. Tho alternative for the South, is either to itsod iti sullen and perha^m dignified apathy, and mourn over the change, or Phoenix like fron? bar ashes, accommodating her prejudices to her phapged statutes, and submitting to the fiat of bcf own pbpfcn arbitrament, to rise in her material wealth and accomplish her dee tiny, beneath attspieea and by weans wnioh eeem to be Heaven decreed. In one word then I have chosen tho latie?, and "our" political position Is oJt plain cd.! Now since the shock of iia reverberations are stilled, and the "Lost Cause" Bea co?ned jqayjd ^ mighty dead, we may moralise upon its meats, and its tendencies, with a dispassioned ealmncjM, that. WM impossible amid tho war of its battles and the heat of its excitement. Might there not have been in the. conservatism and seclusion of our effete civilization, an element of stagnation, which wot antagonistic to the development of those germs of progressive change, which constitute Cosmopolitan ad vanccmen t ? Might not a present interest have blinded us to what may have been a social evil?and ? to our own true and ultiumto prosperity 7 ? Might there not have been in the very fact of our laboring class being our slaves, and of an inferior race?a tendency to degrade labor and make it dishonorable ?. These things may have been, and perhaps the great ideas of liberty, humanity and pro gress have been promoted by the failure of oar cherished Confederacy. The feudal system of the middle ages, was the foundation upon which the social compact of its time was superstructed; it was replete with romantic associations, prolific with in stances of the most touching relations, existent between the lord and the vassal?but its so oages, its services and tenures are disrupted, and the entire fabric of its civilization has dis appeared?merged in new systems, as the des tiny of humanity advances with resistless tread. And so, too, perhaps, of our own "peculiar institutions," knit and woven together as were the social relations of which it was the basis ; Christianizing as it was to a heathen race* autochthon, spontaneous and dermal as wss its character, perhaps it too had accomplished its mission, and must fado in the "misty dusk cf the twilight past" Certain it is that the annihilation of our system?as a result of the war?is a fact, and it is an instinct of piety to discern in these mighty ohanges ?'A divinity that shapes our ends Rough hew them how we may." Despite our prejudices, hug them as wo may, the "Republican Party" of the country seems to be the late?the destiny which shall govern this continent?and it is at least no impiety to discern the Hand of God, as the identity of fafc. One may, by such a train of thought oppose himself to the violent prejudices of his own hab its?a secondary nature?and to the prejudices of. associates, who, not having realised the meta morphosis of the entire civilisation, stilt bug? .to themselves, delusions as anachronic aa those of Don Quixote de la Manch?, and as ridiculous, but he certainly puts himself in the rapid, re sistless, and onward march of events, and the development of the idea of humanity, which march shall advance, and which idea shall evolve itself over the ruins of systems and so cieties until it shall have achieved its perfec tion, Gentlemen of Orange.burg, to whom I am introduced to-day, and whom I greet in the sympathy of common disappointment and com mon hopes, in pointing to our past, so lighted with glory, so prolific in great names, the names of Carolina's great men, whose motto acted out in their own lives was that the da tics of Kfe arc greater than life itself, I would say that my heart thrills with you at these memories?and in pointing to the future, I would but remind yon that it is in your keeping. Man is to a great degree, the crea ture of circumstance, but political results and national destinies sre in his own hands. The lazy lazzaroni who gapes about the streets of modern Rome has forgotten the glory of bis country's past. Heed the warnings eloquent from history ! Resist with all tho energy of your nature the phantom of lethargy and despair that must consign you to oblivion I Up! and grapple with the new issues of to day, and upon the field of life's duty win laurels as green and unfading as those which you have with you yet?brought from the field of Mars! Would we make the moat of life?"let thought's invisible shuttles weave fall in the loom of time, the moment's passing threads." Alas! with how many are these passing hours as so many loose filaments, never woven together, nor gathered, but ravelling, scattered, so many flying ends, confused and worthless." 1 "O true Temple of to-day, let me Worship in thee, glorious Zloa,; I Had none other place, nor time than where I an to-day." Permit me to al'udc to ono other subject. Amid the ruins of ike war none are more melancholy than tho ebriuc of the Muses? 1 Alm? Matrea of Education, the Halls of Lite nloraT * ~ ? ~ "' The literature of a people js the unperisha ble monument, upon which is inscribed their history, in characters more lasting than those graven on the pyramid, the hypogcum, or the arch. uMortWH?idnm ttre ptrtaniu* Pr?sidium et dulce decut." * I have noticed the existence of the "Ama tmr Debating Club" of Orangeburg, and eartily congratulate the young gentlemen1 upon their conception and ita success. No literary or educational institutions have done more good to the cause of thought nod expreaaion in bringing out the latent talest of j youth, and interesting the community in the cause of literature, than these organisations. You will perbips' remember the touching episode in one of Cumin's legal arguments, when he alluded to his association in a similar Society with Lord Avenmore, the presiding judge, ha terms that made his Lordship how his head upon the desk before him, and weep tears of fond remembrance. Yea I young gentlemen, the rccollectioi of | these scenes are the dearest that memory cherishes through life. When you shall enter another arena, ind have other and more material quest ions to debate, you will love to look back upon these evenings "Spent not in toyi, or lost, or wine, But search of deep philosophy, Wit, eloquence and poeiy." i g In congratulating you let me indulge a sugges tion. Besides exercises like your last exhibition, you would do well to invite distinguished gentle men to deliver literary addresses before your Society, to which the public would be invited. Such entertainments would be most improving to you and entertaining to the community at lerge. Never indeed was there a time when the cause of education assumed a grander dignity and importance ! Not again on the field of bat tle, nor for tke present in the political arelfa, must our race viudjeate its prerogative?*nt upon its intellectual prowess depends its fate. To the cause of education and literature, the News will be cvor devoted as requisites of a good paper, and we would invite contribu tions of a literary character of home produc tion. Accept with the assurances of my good will, the tender of my services, and greeting. To assist in making the News a family 1 per generally, pleasing and welcome, my ;j ability shall be devoted. MALCOLM I. BROWN INT To Capitalists '"^'"The mill aeat belonging to the Estate of Col. Kcitt, situated on Lyon's creek, one of tke bcsl localities? for a Factory in the South? is offered gratis to any one who would erect thereon a Cotton Factory. The dam is com plete, fall of water constant, climate healthy." Thus advertises, in our paper, the owner of one ot the finest locations for a cotton factory, in the South. Besides giving the scat, she writes us, that she will subscribe one bale of cottou and secure large subscriptions in and out of the State. We k?ft'w the water power of Lyons' Creek ;0 aumcleut for a half dosen factories, if pro perly dammed. It lies only six miles from the South Carolina Kail Load, in St. Matthews Parish, and about thirteen from the Town of Orangeburg. The location is well situated, and as the advertiser says, healthy. Now all we have to say is : gentlemen of means, now is your time. Don't let the oppor tunity slip in securing this desirable seit for a Cotton Factory. And don't let Orangeburg County be outstripped in the race of improve ment by any other County m the State. With vory little effort we can have a Cotton I Factory in fall operation in this County in twelve months. Call a public meeting and avo the matter thoroughly investigated and 'see for yourselves how easily the thing can bo accomplished. Makc'it a joint stock company Let every man in the County take shares in it. One bale of Cotton to all who are able and a less amount for those who are not so leaky in wealth. We will subscribe one hundred dol lars, and guarantee the sale of ten thousand dollars worth of stock as soon as tho Company is fully organised. Will oar leading men take hold of the matter : or will they let it alone, and [allow some enterprising Northerner to secure the mine and revel in its wealth ? We hope, sincerely hope, that our people will wake up, and not let this opportunity pass away. AH we want to nerve to make the motion,?it will paaa unanimously. Build one Factory and others, all over the County, will spring up I like magic?and in a few years Orangeburg Cuuuijr will be importing the raw material in stead of exporting it. To facilitate the move we give place to tke following letter, and we would state, that oar oolums are open to all who may wish to ex press their views on the subject; COST Of OMB THOUSAND "EINO" BI'INDLJCS AMD ?I- { PARATIOS. Machinery? One Mason's whipper.........$ 76 One picker and Upper. 860 Four double doffing cards...... . 1000 One drawing frame, three hends ........ 226 One slubber, thirty-six spindles... 700 One fly frame, eighty-four spindles,... 800 One thousand Hag' spindles, at $4 i each.;. 400O Two reels, $36 each..,. 70 One bundling press. 69 One baling press.,. 76 Fixtures Poor sets card clothing, at $00..$ 240 Cans and bobbins.,. 200 Shafts, pulleys and bells. 000 Turning lathe.- 60 One ten-horse power engine...... 1200 Extra charges for fitting up.,.?o-->? 160 $7846 $26i0 Total cost of machinery and fixtures... $9886 The above is a detail of the cost of one thousand spindles and preparation, without looms. Without going into detail, $10 per spindle is a safe calculation. One hundred spindles is tho common estimate por horse power, ^fr.: Twelve looms with accompanying machinery consume one horse-powor ; forty looms should be allowed to one thousand spindles for spin ning medium numbers, say twenties to thirties. Looms cost $65 each. The cost of one thousand spindles with pre parations and weaving machinery would be as follows: Whole cost of one thousand spindles and prepa ration (deducting price of reels and bundling press, which are not needed for wearing) is.$0,705 Forty looms, at $66 each. 2,000 One dresser.- 460 One warper._ 100 One spooler. 80 Extra charge for steam engine, say. 860 Extra charge for shafts nnd belts. 260 Total.$18,595 From this detail it appears that the cost per spindle with looms is $13.60, bat a safer cal culation would be $14 per spindle. For one hundred spindles without looms I rould recommend a one story building one hundred foot long and fifty feet wide. If| looms are added, one hundred and forty feet long nnd fifty feet wide. For two or three thousand spindles, let the building be two or three stories high, each story the same iu ca pacity as above recommended. As tho cost of labor and materials in dif ferent localities varies, I refrain from giving I any estimate of the cost of building a mill to ' CCSt*?!? *he above machinery. Any one can Cixi this with the capacity nnd cost of materials given. I would remark, however, that a building at the South, with tho same cost of] labor and material, could be erected much cheaper thin one adapted to our Northern climate. The return from cotton in well managed mills is eighty-five per cent, although many return seventy-five per cent. A loom in fair operation will produce thirty-two yards per day, ruuning at one hundred and ten picks per minute, aud making cloth sixty-four picks ^-Ti?jgfljlj^nr^^ itich. J Tim^Matioawau^;oiii^ny havoyscnt ma chinery to the South for a large number of mills, aud could probably furnish it as cheap and at as short notice as any machine makers iu the country ; although the best means for a Southern company to start a mill well, aud iu the shortest possible time, would be to engage a good practical manufacturer, and let him put the mill in operation and furnish a com petent .superintendent for a specified sum. This plan has been adopted, and I believe with success. Respectable persons can be found to take charge of new factories if tho locations are agreeable. Respectfully yours. WAI. MONTGOMERY.

Carpenter, Presiding Judge First Circuit : The County Commissioners of tho said County would most respoctfully respond to an order from this Court to "shew cause why they have taken no stops towards the repairing am1 altering the Jail of this County, with a view to the security of prisoners." That they peti tioned the General Assembly at the Special Session of 1S68, to make an appropriation in accordance with the estimates of seven thou sand dollars (97000) for the rebuilding of ihe Jail of this County, as also an additional ap propriation of onethonsand dollars (1000J for the rebuilding of a Court House. The Com nrissioncrs would also state that they have not had the requisite amount of funds in their possession to rebuild or repair cither the Court House or Jail, owing to the fact that 'they have had no power or authority up to the pre sent time to levy any additional taxes for such ?_??r noses. The Commissioners respond to the fuithe J I order of the Court, ' That they do then show cause why they have made no report of their actings and doings ins County Commissioner.-'," would most respectfully respond that they are not aware any fuch report is, by law, required of them. Attention of the Court is respect fully called tu the fact that the County Com missioners is a Constitutional body (see Set*. 19, Art. 4 Constitution,) liaviwg juriad'u ti n, Au?., Ae.? with the right of appeal to.tbe State 0*0*1 t jjj The Act of September 2Ctli, 1SG$, ? ntUh-Ti ?'An Act to define the jurisdiction and duties of County Con,missioiiei; ." is intended, we hold, to accomplish what its title imports. That Act together with Sec. 67 of the -Act to organise Townships," of September 26th, 1868, Stats, at Large. 137, contain* all the laws in our opinion ou record relative to Coun missionera. As above stated, a right of ap peal lies to this Court, and in such an event they would probably be required to certify their action in the given ease. Pur malfeasance in office, they would Of Oourif bo t riable before this Court, but they do not understand upon what grouii^ they are required to mako a general report Of their actings aud doinga as County Commissioners to this Court. They therefore re pect fully respond, that there is no law by which they are required to make such a report at this term of the Court, and hence no Such report has been made. Very respectfully, WM. N. MOI NT, Chairman Board County Commissioners. From various points and in multiform way eomc nn testimonies o! the comparative ly rapid recuperation of the long-wasted South. From all these Southern States, by letter, by newspaper, by word of mouth, there come more or less emphatic messages of cheer. Here aud there, it ia true, are giveu stories of discouragements, of short crops or total fail ures, of long-drawn out distresses caused by tho war, d-c, but in the main we find the people rapidly learning the way to thrift, and growing more hopeful, buoyant, strong. To use a quaint Ynnkcciam, they are getting to bo decidedly "forohandod." For through all tho red drifts of war thoy learned many a use ful lesson whieh may not now bo forgotten, not the least important of which were those relating to economy. The South is now not only engaged right earnestly in p'oiuetrig, but it is wiser iu the husbanding. * And it hardly needs a "Poor Richard's Almanac" to show that, as with individuals, so with nations, the art of saving carefully and yet uot meanly Is the true source of wealth and prosperity. Not only is the South profoundly and grate fully impressed with the comparative pros fienty of the present, and the promised bril iance of the near future, but the North, as represented by its journals, is fully awake to tho possibilities of our career.?S.
