The Agricultural and Mechanical
State Fair.
It is a striking proof and illustration
of the liberality and public spirit of the
business men of old Charleston, that they
have responded so generously to the call
of the Committee of Arrangements of
the Agricultural Society for the Fair,
next month. One thousand dollars in
eash has been subscribed by the mer
chants of Charleston for this purpose.
Conaidcring the hard presiure of tho
times, this is magnificent liberality.
We call upon the people of the State
to feel a just pride in coming up to this
standard held up to them.
Two dollars makes one annual mem
ber, ton dollars a life metnhor. Let
these amounts bo subscribed generally
by our farmers, and with a little addi
tional help, and as our old friend, the
Courier, expresses it, "tho Fair will be
come a jubilee gathering of the people
from the mountain to the seaboard."
We would remind our farmers of the
approach of this their Agricultural festi
val. Let all go who can, let us make it
a gathering of the clans, a gala meeting
of the bone and sinew, of the material,
the bona fide interests of the State.
Specimens of your erack produce, or
?took, must be sent up by the trains of
the 8th and 9th of November, directed
to the eaio of D. Wyatt Aikcn, Secreto
ry and Treasurer of the State Agricultu
ral Society, Columbia, So. Ca.
The Future of Cotton in the
South.
The New York World contains au j
able address to the Liverpool Cotton
Supply Company, in which the ground
is taken that it is quite practicable to in
crease the supply of cotton at the South
b~ European labor, controlled by English
capital.
It refutes the idea that white labor
cannot be employed with success upon
our cotton lands as follows : "If we con
'? 'template the monuments of human gen
ius that now stand or lie, with the dust
Of ages upon them in Southern Europe, |
in Africa, India, and Central America ;
if we remember, for a moment that these
are as bright and standing records of
human toil as of genius?herculean la
bors performed in tropical countries by
other hands than those of the African or
Chinaman. It would certainly be the
height of absurdity to suppose that the
negro had been present in all -ages and
in all warm countries to hew wood and
draw water requisite to the demands of
rearing those stupendous works that have
mocked the waste of thirtccu centuries.
We would be explicit upon this subject'
in order to disabuse the public mind of
an error that has long been turning the
tide of emigration from Europe towards
our North and Northwest, thus diverting
it from some of the fairest portions of
the earth, and doing violence to the in
terests of all concerned. There are spots
OB Southern soil that could be made in a
few years, almost another Eden, if a
good class of emigrants could be iuduced
to undertake the work, and these spot,
arc even now as conducive to health and
longevity as the best portions of Eu
rope/'
These views are sound and calculated
to induce immigration to our Southern
land, and when wo take into considera
tion that the attainment of this end,
would to a great oxtent, secure our State
to those who possess her lands, and
whoso every and most vital interest is
entirely her own, we can but hope that
they will receive the consideration, which
they deservt r both from their sound
reason and truth, and from the benefit
which their adoption would be to us who
groan beneath our bondage.
The farmers and plante? of the State
will notice with satisfaction that the
proprietors of The Charleston News have
made an arrangement with the proprietors
of the Rural Carolinian which enables
them to offer to subscribers uuusual
advantages. The Charleston Newt is
already well known as a wide-awake
and pushing paper; the Rural Carolinian
bids fsir to be the best agricultural maga
sine ever published in the South. What,
then, will our readers say to procuring
Tk* Dady Neics and Rural Carolinian
for on* ye^r for SO 50.. or Try
Weekly Asws and Rural Carolinian for]
one year for S4 ? Can the foroa of ohea] -
neas further go? Subscriptions at these
rates may be sent to either the proprietors
of the Rural Carolinian or the proprie
tors of The Charleston Hews.
The State of South Carolina,
COUNTY OF ORANGEBURO.
OCTOBER TERM 1809.
To the Honorable Richard B. Carpenter,
Presiding Judge:
The Grand Jury for the said County
beg leave rcapeetfully, to submit to your
Honor, the following Presentment:
They have visited the Public Build
ings in the discharge of their duty, and
report first, as to Die jail, (which is in
process of completion, that the same ia
a substantial building, secure and safe
for tho confinement of prisoners, and the
County Commissioners deserve credit,
not only for the style of the work, but
for the expedition with which it has been
accomplished. When completed, (which
will bo in a short time,) the County can
boast of a building su'lable for the pur
poses for which it was erected, and will
be rid of what, for two years, has been a
laughing stock to all prisoners. As tho
Jail now is, it is perfectly secure and
safe. The prisoners confined express
satisfaction with their diet and troatmont,
and their rooms reflect credit upon the
Sheriff and Jailors in point of uoatness
and good keeping.
Tho Grand Jury have visited the Pub
lic Offices, and report the Offices of
Judge of Probate, Sheriff and Clerk,
kept with method aud system. It ap
pears, however, that in neither of those
.Offices is there an iron safe for the keep
I ing of money or bends, or other valua
ble papers which, in viow of the impor
tant object of these Offices, would seem
to be so necessary. And they would
therefore recommend the immediate pur
chase of a safe for these Offices.
The Offices of County Commissioners,
County Treasurer and Auditor appear to
be Well kept, but these, too, lack some
secure place for their papers and ironej,
aud for these Offices the Jury would also
recommend the purchase of a safe.
All Roads and Bridges that have
come under the observation of the Jury
arc in good repair.
The Court House now used is ridicu
lously small for the business of the
County, aud is, in every respoct, unsuita
ble for its purposes. The Grand Jury at
the last term recommended the building
of a new Court House at once. This the
present Jury would heartily endorse, and
suggest that the same be commenced at
an early day. They have been advia d
that the County Commissioners can raise
the ftine's for building by borrowing
money at 7 per cent, from time to time,
and it is rccomuicudcd that they be au
thorized so to do, limiting the amount to
820,000, which is believed to bo nniply
sufficient. The building of the Court
House will probably take two years, in
the meantime it is suggested that the
Count}* Commissioners cither rent a more
suitable building, or add such conven
iences and comforts to tho present house
aa the ucccssitics of the case may- de
mand.
/ The attention of the Grand Jury has
been very earnestly called to a fast grow
ing nuisance io this County. The Mag
istrate's Court.*, undefined aud uncertain
in their jurisdiction, in some way or
other, have flooded the Court of Sessions
with business. Numberless cases hava
been brought before the Jury, which
they are satisfied could have been adju
dicated elsewbf re, but more especially
cases which have come up by way of ap
peal from these Courts. It does occur
to tho Graud Jury that the County ia
put to n vast deal of unnecessary ex
pense. Whether the difficulty bo '.u the
uncertainty of the law or the unwise rip- j
pointmcnt of totally incompetent Mag
istrates they arc unable to say, but as it
now stands the Graud Jury would re
commcud cither u radical change iu the
prcscut system, or the entire abolition of
such Courts for tho County and State.
Sonic definite and well understood powers
to these officers, and the appointment of
trust worthy and sensible men to excroise
them, perhaps may remedy the evil.
Numerous complaints have bean made
I as to a matter which involves not only
the interests of planters, but of the
Court itself. The Jurors are informed
that there are a large number of stores
and shops throughout the County at
which the colored people are in the habit
of selling cotton in the teed at night. This
commodity is difficult of identifier, ion.
Frcedmen raise cotton aud have a right
to sell the, same. The shop keeper has
the same right to buy ; but there is a
general complaint among planters that
their cotton is stolen from time to time,
aud it is difficult to identify the proper
ty, thus depriving them of any protec
tion the law might afford.
It occurs to the Grand J ury to suggest
to tho Freodmen that all this tends to
throw suspicion upon them, and that the
honest as wall as dishonest are liable to
the samo suspicion.
Those of the colored people who are
honest, and feel an interest in their racek
should unite in a petition to the Uegisla
tut? to enact some law, if practicable, to
put an end to this niT/Af traffic, 'ihoso
who have cotton for r>alc, can as well ac
complish their trade in tho daylight, and
so avoid ihis shadow of suspicion. It is
probable that a word from your Honor on
this subject may impress the importance
of this matter most forcibly upon tho
Freed men who are now in attendance in
Court.
The Grand Jury have vtsitodthc Poor
Houses which are in good keeping for
the means applicable to this object.
They would recommend that the paupers
be required to contribute labor to their
support, so far as they may be able, in
the cultivation of the land around tho
premises; and the Jury aro infoimed
that out of tho appropriation of $2,000
for the support of the poor, 91,000 is
due the Asylum at Columbia
The Grand Jury would cull attention
to the inconvenience to Jurors by the
non-payment of Jury Ticketa. Tim
Treasurer only receive thorn in limited
amounts in payment of Taxes. Some
provision should bo made for their
paymcot.
All of which is most respectfully sub
mitted.
