Great Collapse,
The chief busiuces of the New York
now-a-days is to propheoy "the
inevitable collapse of the whole radical
concern." Day by day the inconstant
Bf Brtt foretells the doom of the Repub
lican party, aud seems to chuckle mighti
ly over his prognostications. A sharp
old man is Rennet; and wo chuckle with
him right heartily.
But a greater source of comfort to us
?tili, is the language lately used by Mr.
Dean of the New York Sun. His words
are u)$ the more worthy of consideration
from the fact that they come fiom a
writs? who has ever been the most dang
areas, because the most insidious, foe of
the Democracy. Mr. Dana speaks more
t>f the Republican party in the Southern
States. And it is-iudocd time for or
?aaiiaiion and action utnong us of the
t&mib, when the New York Sun gives
utterance to such strong and pointed
norde at these which follow :
"Wa do not fbr the present question,
and we do not promise to discuss, tho in
trinsic wisdom of this policy. We de
sign simply to call attention to the pros
pect which it opens to the Republican
pSffiy. That prospect is thf grave.
*Waanvor suppose that the money and
the braiot of the white robels will not
bvmore than a match for tho negroes
and the few scattering white Republicans
in the former slave States, has a confi
dence which we dp not sheae. These
gtates may be expected to vote solid, or
naariy to, fos a veiBOOraiic candidate for
President at the next election. And wc
also doubt whether a large majority ot"
the Democratic party io the free States
would not prefer Robert BS. Lfo to Gcu.
Grant for President to-day. | ? M
"(The terrible burden offlhe iJtjr i
taxes is all the whiii press^Wij>o|pmt^
against tho Republican party. On the
whole it must be admitted that any pru
dent life insurance company would home
to regard the risk on the Republican
party as extra hazardous at the pi essnt
time."
Just so, Mr. Dana. South Carolina'
is a Democratic State, and we believe
that, uneer all circumstances, she will
remain a Democratic State. If the vote
of the blacks is not hereafter controlled
by the respectable whites whenever and
wherever the whites shall so choose,
then it will bo Me fault of the latter?a
I most wretched and ignominious fault!
The Radicals have had their day in
South Carolina, and io the South gene
rally, and a long and terrible day it haB
been, but we believo its baleful sun is
declining towards the West.
Two or three years more, and the
Scotts, and the Platts, and tho Pilsburys,
will have returned to their "native moun
tains of TIcpsidam," or else have sunk
down, down into ignominious obscurity
among the people they are now so vul
garly and shamelessly outraging. Aud
as for the wretched native scalawags,
their very names will be ever mentioned
with reproach and spitting, and their
children aud grand children, and great
grand children, will curse them to the
latest genetation.?Edgefield Advertiser.
Phew! Did you evex. "He rolls it

Messrs. Editors : Perhaps you would
like to learn the condition of men and
things in this portion of tho State, and
as I feel communicative this evening. 1
' shall endeavor to give you a truthful ac
count. Our people arc engaged in a
variety of pursuits, and Ornngeburg is
represented here in every department.
The Messrs. Jennings' arc running some
four steam mills near the Edisto, and
saw and ship untold quantities of pine
lumber.
Tho planting portion of the communi
ty arc engaged in the laudable efforts of
raising corn and rice, only a small quan
tity of cotton having been plautcd. Our
crops are looking well but in want of
rain. The recent showers have bcuu
partial, io some instances falling plenti
fully upon one end of the plantation,
and giving only u sprinkle on the other.
We are trying almost every fertilizer
offered in the markets, guano, phosphate,
Ac., also a valuable domestic fertiger,
brought to our notice a few years ago by
Mr. G. E. Dukes, a worthy man, and a
native of Orangcburg, it is called house
guano, and is obtained by scraping tbo
mold or fine earth beneath dwelling
houses, kitchens, cabins, Ao. Our mode
of applying it, is to put a double hand
ful to caeh hill of coru at the time of
planting, or drill for cotton at the rate of
about 2G bushels por acre. 1 hus far it
is equal, to the peruvinu? wando, pacific
gu or Oox'a phosphate. iiv that
doubts, come aud sec.
the young white toon have accepted
the situation, and gone to tha plow,
some of the colored boys hai-fl followed
their example, while others spend too
much of their time felling, shooting aud
picking berries. I N ^
The system of labor which I find most
satiefactoiy to both parties, ia to pay my
laborers some caah every month, furnish
them a patch, rations, medicines, &c,
and work them on the usual plan, fVom

The Chops in Bahnwell.?The fol
lowing letter shows the promiasiug pros
pects of tho crops in Barnwell- It is
written from Three Runs, aud dated
Jnne 12:
Last year I came out vory well, and in
January had about SI000 in my factor's
hands iu Charleston. Th'u? ?cnson 1
hope to du better still, for I have put au
equal qauutity of land in coru aud pro
visions as last year, aud about fifty acres
more iu cotton, making two hundred
acres in this crop, but I have used more
fertilizers und have applied ubout three
hundred pounds of the same to each
aere, which I think will increase the
yield fully fifty per cunt., and well repay
me.
All around inc there has been more
land put in cotton than last year, and
more fertilizers used, and if we have a
good season there will be much more cot
ton made ; for I can harvest all that I
can raise, and you may be certain that
no man will leave auy in his held as loU(
as it is worth twenty-eight cents per
pound.
I do not think the cool spring has in
jured my crop at nil, but rather did it
good, for it kept it back until it gained
.strength aud the hot sun has made it
shoot up splendidly, and I now have as
good a gtuud us 1 ever had during my
seventeen year;; of planting.

Astounding Discovery.
A Race of Sextient Beings Invisi
ble to tiik Naked Eye Discover
ed with Microscope.
Wc accepted an invitation yesterday
to examine the most wonderful und awful
discovery ever made by man, a commu
nity of microscopic human beings!
The gentleman who made the diseov
cry is a well-known citizen of Mobile,
whose name wo arc not at liberty to re
veal, but whom for the sake of conven
ience we shall call Mr. A.
Mr. A. is a gi ntloman in easy circum
stances, who has devoted much time to
scientific pursuits, particularly to experi
ments with the microscope. It was
while examining with this instrument
a specimeu of moss or lichen taken from
the roots of a live oak tree near the
Spring Hill road, that Mr. A. made his
astounding discovery. He saw clinging
to the minute brauche*, of the liehe? that
he had been turning about so uncere
moniously, a human being, perfect in
form, and with a countcuauee ruvcaiiug
the wildest terror. Tho microscope man
was magui?ed to the sizo of a small red
ant, and wheu he first met tho eyo of
Mr. A. it is doubtful whioh of tho two
were the uioro terrified, the experimenter
at tho uuoxpected discovery, or his
microscopic fcllow,-croaturo at fiuding
j hiuiael!' subjected t<o such cough treat
ment.
"One look was enough," said Mr. A.
"I In id aside the specimen, and for weeks
I did. not venture to use the microscope
?gain; Was it really true that I had
seen a sentient being, whoro I expected
to Bee only the lower orders of animal
life; or*had I fallen a victim to my
enthusiasm in the prosecution of dis
coveries in the microscopic world ?' Had
toy mitid become deranged? I kept my
terrible. secret to myself, for I could not
bear the thought of ..being laughed at
about a matter that had such sensations
in my mind. At last I detcnuiuvd to
make further examination of tho speci
men of lichen. 11 remained as I bad at
first examined it. The microscope Was
adjusted over it, I locked again, with
what interest may well be imagined, and
there lay the man that I bad seen before,
but living no longer. Ho bad died,
probably or exhaustion, and there he
lay clinging with a death grip to the
lichen boughs, whither he had doubtless
ventured iu search of game,
Further examination convinced me of
the truth of the hypothesis. I discovered
several animalcule'' recently slain. As
well as could be made out by the magni
fying power of my microscope, the legB
of the nnitualculw were tied together as
visible boys tie squirrels aud partridges.
Tho microscopic man evidently wore
clothes, but of what material or how
formed it was impossible to determine.
Convinced beyond a doubt by what he
hud seeu, of the existence of u race of
microscopic human beings, and some
what familiarized with the idea that so
revolted him at first, Mr. A., continued
his researches with the greatest zeal.
The examination of several more spec
imens Of the liehen, and the soil on
which it grew, revealed a few more indi
viduals like that montioncd above. Mr.
A. was careful not to treat them so
roughly as he did the first one discovered,
for the thought nf having iuudvertently
killed a fellow-creature has greatly dis
turbed him. \
After a long and careful search of the
lichens aud the space occupied by them,
Mr. A. had the gratification of making
his great and crowuing discovery, the
capital city of the microscopic nation.
This he carefully, removed with the
foundations on which it stood und trans
ferred it to a flower pot in his back yard.
It was there thatfae hud the pleasure
of beholding the wonderful aud minute
creation. i
The portion of the/city so fur examined
contains a population of probably three
?millions, or u number about, equal to that
of London. -*4H- "?*
It is impossible with the microscope iu
Mr. A's., possession to tell of what mate
rial the houses are built?whether they
ore of earth, or wood, or* both combined.
The streets appear under thu micros
cope to be about n quarter of an inch in
width, and thronged with people hurry
ing to and fro, whether iu the pursuit of
commerce or on account of the late shocks
their city experienced during its transfer
from tho root of the tree to the flower
pot, cannot, of course, be ascertained.
But they were?men and women mag
nified to the size of pismires, and display
ing all the signs of tumultuous human
life!
While we were watching the ever
changing crowd wo saw one person rush
out of a house and another one pursue
him.
The pursuer was soon joined by the
crowd in the street, and after nn exciting
chase of about tbo tweutieth "part of an
inch, measured by the naked eye, the
thief, for such the first men t inned indi
vidual must have been, surrendered him
self, evidently exhausted by his iong
race.
He was Liken away by poisons seem
ing to have authority. What the stolen
property was that he held in his hand to
the la.11. tho microscope, was not power
ful enough to determine. During the
pursuit of the thiai the people showed
every symptom of excitement common
with the hirgor species of human beings.
They clapped their bauds, thrust their
neighbors rudely aside, and .showed by
their gesticulations the deepest interest
in what was going on, and curiosity con
cerning it. Thoir shouts aud screams on
the occasion were doubtless deafeuing to
one another, but of course they could
not be heard by us.
Want of space compels us to bring
this subject to a close for the present,
although we have recorded hut a small
fraction of tho interesting incidents that
came under our own observation, und the
more tiumcrous ones that were observed
from time to time by Mr. A. When the
more powerful misroscope ordered by
that gentleman arrives, aud the expected
results are obtained by observations with
it, wc shall lay the facts beforo our read
ers
The extent of Mr. A.'s discovery may
be summed up as follows: A race of
sentient beiugs, invisible to the naked
eye, iu shape perfect men and women,
apparently with ail the passious, hopos
and fears that swuy tho largest species.
They are considerably advanced in civil
ization, for they dwell in donsely popu
lated cities, a state of society in which
the science of go? arnuiatit and many of.
the arts that contribute to the comforts '
and embelishmeats of lite miut necessari
ly have been developed. dir ' 'iL
The use of a moro powerful microscope
will lead to the verification of such an
hyihotheais, or prove its fallacy.
As tho matter stands, all who aro in
terested Itf'the progross of science, and
in the spread of Christianity, will feel
the deepest solioitude concerning the pos
sibility of communicating with these
newly discovered sentient beings in the
microscopic world.
llow is that to be accomplished ??
Their voices ear/not reach our ears, and
to thotn cur voices most, bo what the
music of the spheres is to us. Worlds
go whirling through space with a clatter
thaC fills (he universe and becomes to
mundane ears the equivalent of silence.
Such must be the hum of the visible ter
restrial creation to the microscopic.
Whether the existence of sentient be
ings in the microscopic world was ever
he fore suspected we arc not prepared to
say, but had such a theory been advanced
before the discovery we have recorded,
it would not haye been becoming in a
philosopher to reject it without due con
sideration.
The magnitude of matter, so far as it
eouios within the comprehension of a
unite mind, exists only relatively.

Juduk Our and the Homestead
Law.?A Greeuvillo correspondent of
the Charleston Courier,says: His Honor
Judge Orr has written a long argumcut
sustaining tho Humeateud Act. As
regards liens existing prior to the Act
he says, 4If tbe Homestead provisions
had been objectionable to Congress,
applying to existing liens at the date of
the adoption of the Constitution, it
would doubtless have been excepted to
in the Act admitting the State to repre
sentation, as was done by Congress with
reference to certain features in the Con
stilution of Georgia.
"It is said, again, that if the dwelling
house and out-buildings arc not excluded
from tho estimate, that au unfortunato
debtor whose dwelling and outbuildings
exceeded one thousand dollars iu vnlue
would be excluded from si! benefit from
the Act. It is conceded that the legisla
tion on this point is defective, und that
some provision should be made when the
debtor's dwelling is worth more than
on thousand dollars, to retain for him in
trust that sniu when nohl, to purchase
a homestead ; but this argument cannot
be allowed to withdraw aud defeat tbe
plain provisions of tao Constitution and
Act already quoted.
"It may he that appraisers would be
authorized on examining a dwulling and
out-buildings, and coneludiug tho same
to be worth more thuu one thousaud
dollars, that they would be authorized to
appraise only, aud assign only a part of
the dwelling aud out-buildings, or even
curtain rooms as a homestead.'"
