The -Judge of the Eighth Circuit
The election For a Judgo to fill the
place of Hon. James L. jOrr ha* trans
pired. On Tuesday last the two branch
es of the Jifjgislature, in joint assembly
decided who should fill tins position;
And wBo is it? We aro hashing up
stale news to our readers. Doubtless
it is universally known that Thompson
II.. (Cooke, of Orangoburg, has boon
elected Judge of the Eighth Judicial
Circuit ef this State.
As to the fitness of Mr. Cookc for the
duties of this high function, wo need
say naught. Mr Cookc is well known,
at least in this County. "Pruetico
makes perfect" tuns the adage, and Mr.
Cooke has been practicing law for "lo I
these many years." This must have
given him clear and defiuitcand thorough
ideas of the important dutios of the office
he now holds. Thompson II. Cookc has
been a*good and faithful servant to the
Republican party in this State, "through
evil report and good," and has fairly
earned the political preferment with
which he has been honored.
: Merit and devotion should ever be
honored and rewarded by parties and
States. Mr. Cookc is a man who is pos
sessed of redeeming and noble traits.
In ficc, there is every reason to be
lieve that Mr. Cooke will fill bis high
seat with credit, and to the satisfaction
of nil, and that ho will remember, that
higher than any personal or party con
sideration stand, the Bscred obligations
ef his oath of olSce. The very iden of
the ermine is purity. We trust that it
is assumed in (his case with this realiza
tion of the binding obligations imposed
jipon' its wearer.

On Tuesday last the Message of Gov

It b S langthy, and well-digested
document and thoroughly exhaustive of
the various subjects ol* Stabe policy

the encouragement of Northern immi
grants snd of cotton and woolen manu
factories ; also that the Codo and Re
vised Statutes be modified and simpli
fnd j also that rents and claims for sup
plies be made preferred liens upon orops.
fie also is in- favor of abolishing the
present fence laws. Tho message treats
this subject with ability and tact.
I cannot furnish to our farmers more in
teresting reading than the subjoined
paragraphs of the message on this sub
ject :
TilK FKNTK LAW.
The very large consumption of timber
for fenceiug purposes threatens speedily
to exhaust tho forest trees iu many
counties of (he State, and has created
the gravest concern among our leading
agriculturists, and a wide spread desire
that the existing fence law should bu,
as soon as possible, repealed.
As there has been for somo ti ne a
great difference of opinion in our Sta'e
ob to the legal provisions whioh should
bo established iu regard to the subject of
fencing, I desiro to give, it some length,
some of the reasons'which induce tue to
recommend the abolition of oui present
laws and the substitution of others.
'2st. Tho building of a fence, includ
ing the splitting aud hauling ol the
rails, is n tax upon the capital and lab >r
of the farmer equal, it is estimated, to
at least ono-ihird of the market value of
our r.verago cotton lands. The money
and work thus expended would il ap
plied to tl.e cultivation of the laud, in
crease, by a very large percentage, both
the area cultivated and the pro luo< ion
thereof.
2d. Yast bodies of arable land that
nro now unfilled for want of fencing
timber, aud for which, ou that account.,
there is no sale, would readily find
purchasers among our agricultural] labor
ers, and he yicYiiug plentiful harvests,
thus cheapening many of tho necessaries
of life, aud adding to the wealth of the
State.
3d. Ts require the farmer to fence
out his neighnnr's stock, instead of re
quiring the owner ol the stock to feneo
it in. is a palpable act of injustice, mid
u monstrous instance of folly, in a State
whose wealth is agricultural, ai d de
pends almost entirely <>ti tillage and not
on pasturage.
Why should 1 Ic required to build a
fence nr. und my farm, nt a heavy Oust,
in order to keep my neighbor's cow but
of my growing crop, when I d rive no
benefit from tiiit cow ?
Why should J;is property, c? nsisting
of n few roving a'hiuiuls, be more sncr -i
in the eye of the law than the low aero?
from which, by industrious toil, 1 de
rive my daily bread ?
Is it not juM and fair that ? very man
should be required tocxcrcLc reasonable
care for his own property, and not sub
jeet his neighbor to any cost to pr> vuut
tliat property becoming the tuuau.i ol
injury to uny other clues of property ?
4th. The IcuecH themselves u.c.ipy a
considerable purlieu of the oloircd laud,
tl u.- rvduting the cultivated area.
Gill. In pop'rtion as the demand for
fenc ing tinilcr exhausts the supply of
trees in any locality, the price of wood
fi.refuel iueioisei. which is a consider
ation of great moment in a country
where there is no development of strata
of coal.
bill Scionue and QXpertonCQ unite In
prove that, iu legions where the forests
are being exhaust < ii. the foil of rain i?.
j roportionally lessend, aud the lauds
arc parched by long droughts that not
only destroy regulation, but, fro n the
failure of water, prove fatal to stock of
nil kinds that, arc permitted to run at
lar, c. I have rend that this is notably
tho ease in the pruiriu belt of Texas ami
New Mexico ; nod I have been reliably j
inf.ruu-d that it is strikingly exhibited
iu those sections of Virginia where, iu
the late war, the tieua wee destroyed
for fuel and other purpose along the
lii.rsof military encampments.
7th. Cattle and other other stock can
be fenced iu more cheaply aud securely
than they cau be fenced out.
8th. The system of fencing in stock,
while it lessens the original expens* of
establishing a farm, will tend to increase
the yield per aero, by preserving a large
quantity of the natural manures, for ap
plication to the tilled soil.
9th. Enclosed pastures will ten ! to
incite among our iigricnltnrista the cul
tivation of improved grasses, and lllaO to
an improvement in the. breed of stock ;
in both of which particulars South
Carolina is far behind most ol her sister
Btato.
10th. Our frtrimers may be better en
abled to rest their lands, by cultivating
several tracts ii> rotation, without tho
necessity of fencing each, thus recuper
ating .-oil?, that are threatened with to
tal exhaustion by continuous cultivation,
moulded by proper fertilizers.
11th 'i he tenc?: law repels the ugri
cultural immigrants of the Northern
States, whose cultivated industry and
thrifty modes of farming uro so much
neeil-'d in thia Slate, whe n there are
three acres of arable laud lying fallow
lor every acre there is that is tilled.
That' most valuable oluftS of laborers
shrink frotrv coming into a co uotry or
State, iu which, bet?re they can salcly
run a furrow in-a titty aure fi.dd, they
must expend, iu home cases, umre tuouey
and. labor- to build it fsuoe than are re
quired to build a house wlictoin to \lV0.
12th. It is not only chc.ipor to fence
cattle iu than to fence them out, but if.
is fur safer for the farmer, rendering,
his crop loss liable to damage from the
inroads of stock rttnuiug at largo. Many
vexations lawsuits, and the killing und
wounding of hundreds of head of cattle ?
that make breaches through the fences,
to tbo great injury of growing crops,
can thus surely be prevented.
13lh. The danger to life and property
on our railroads is greatly iucreased by
stock running at largo.
In answer to these reasons given
above, which arc by no means exhaus
tive of tbo argument in favor of the
abolition of tho fence law, it is alleged ?
by the advocates of the fence system:
1st. That there are many poor per
sons who own a few head of cattle, and
do not own a sufficient quantity of laud
to pasture them on, and that such small
laud holders, if the fence law is repealed,
will be compelled to sell their cattle for
what they will bring, or let them starve;
and that this alternative muat surely
occur to tho huge number who own
stock, but have no land at all.
2d. That there arc large tracts of land
such as our pine bcrrcs and wet bottoms,
that ate lit only for grating; and thnt, if
the fence law is repealed, cannot be
utilized a3 at prevent.
3d. That many small landed .pro
prietors cannot keep their necessary
stock ouclosed in pastures for want of
localities supplied with water, and that
such must be greatly injured if obliged
by law to maintain close pastures.
The answer to the lirst objeotion may
bo found in the following legitimate de
duction from the principle on which it
-coins to be based :
Suppose that ton persons settle in a
secluded portion of the State., and that
nine of thetll proceed to level the forests
and break up the s til to open farms,
and determine to enclose and feed their
necessary farm stock, while the tenth
locates in their vicinity, and being the
owner of twenty head of cows prefers
making butter or raising beef cattle to
tilling the soil ; and, as he owns but
five acres of laud, he is opposed to re
pealing the fence law, desiring his stock
to range at will. The cows are worth
five hmulled dollars for the lot, but the
cost of the lonccs oil the supposed farms
would at least treble or quardruplo that
sum. According to tho the ory of this
objection, that two or three thousand
dollars, worth offences must be built,
and that amount of the monoy of the
nine fanners must be locked up as so
much dead capital, in order to protect
the fruits of their industry against des
truction by their neighbor's, five hund
red dollars' worth of cattle*
Indeed, the same expense of fencing
would be required if the neighbor owned
but one bead of roving stock ; and thus
ui.-'c farmers would have to expend at
least a thousand dollars each to build a
fence to kerp out from their cr^ps one
twenty live dollar cow.
This fair and simple statement of the
theory underlying the fence iaw seems
to me suffioieut to demonstrao its in
justice and impolicy in our agricultural
community.
That the couscqucnces to the om all
landholder, who is obliged to enclose
his stock, will be as injurious as in as
serted in that objection, is evidence! by
the fact, that this very class of cattle
owners are, 1 "have been told, notably
prosperous on the sea coast islands in
our State, which regiotis, th nigh nf
great extent, mid containing an abund
ance of winter pasturage of outlying
stock, have been for many years exempt
from the operations of the fence laws,
and now contain but lew enclosed farms
The second objection can be met by
having a sufficient area of the wet bot
' touts and pine barrens enclosed for pa*
turcs, the proprietors charging a small
fee per annum.
The tl ird objection w< uld be obviated
by driving tho cattle to water, or taking
tho water to the stock, or by having a
well and a trough in the pasture ground.
The sum of the winde argument
against our present disastrous fence sys
tem is. that nil farmers arc compelled to
build and keep up fences which they do
not need, because some 'cattle-owners
desires to graze their stock on land
which they do not own.
I should add that provender f>r stock
would be greatly increased in product,
and consequently cheapened, by the
greater area that will surely be cultiva
ted, should ull fencing be dispensed
with.
1 have thus dwelt at length upon tho
' reasons which should operate in favor of
the abolition of our fence laws?first,
because I believe that such abolition
would bo tho first step taken by South
Carolina iu thu adoption of a progressive
system of agriculture, in which we are
signally behind the age; and second be
cause it has heretofore been the popu
lar but erroneous doctrine iu this State,
that our present fence law is adapted to
the protection of the poor farmer or cat
t.e, owner against the landud proprietor
or wealthy farmer. So far i? this doo
| trine from being founded <uv fact, or
even deduoible by reasonable inference,
I that in numy other Status who.e the
"no fonoo" law is of force the small and
poor farmers nro the very class who
I most loudly protest against any change
iu their laws >u this subject.
