THE ORANGEBURG NEWS GEORGE ROLIVER, Financial and Business Mamaqrr. Official Paper of the Stute nnd of Ornnjccburg- County. SATl I1RDAT, JAN. 18, 1873. The Judge of the Eighth Circuit ?? HStaMII ' .? k ? election For a Judgo to fill the plnco of Hon. James L. Orr has trans pired. Oq Tuesday last the two branch es of the-Legislature, in joint assomlly decided who should fill this position. And wBo * is it ?' \Ve aro hashing up stale news to our readers. Doubtless it is. universally known that Thompson II.. Cooko, of Ornngoburg, has boon elected Judge of the Eighth Judicial Circuit of this State. As to the fitness of Mr. C'ookc for the duties of this high function, wo need say naught. Mr Cooko is well known, at least in this County. "Practice makes perfect" tuns the adsgc, and Mr. Cooke has been practicing law for "lo I those many years." This must have givcuhini clear and dcGnitcand thorough ideas of the important dutios of the office he now holds. Thompson II. Cooko has been a good and faithful scrv >nt to the Republican party iu 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. Cooko is a man who is pos sessed of redeeming and noble traits. In fine, there is every renson to be lieve that Mr. Cooko will fill his high seat With credit, and to the satisfaction of all, and that ho will remember, that higher than any personal or party con sideration stand, the sacred obligations of fiftth of office. The very idea of] the ermine is purity. We trust that it is appumed in this case with this realiza tion of .the binding obligations imposed o* its wearer. *Z M*. legislative. \-d*i??U ?i. w i:- I ~~ jpii/re>.tg>r j last pur legislative veprc ?chtattvee have been at work and have. rJfgpatcrVtd' important business.

On Tuesday the first Annual Message of Governor Mobos was read in both houses In the House the bill to abolish the In ferior Court of Charleston was reported upon unfavorably. \ ???*?<? The Governor's Message. ') On Tuesday last the Messsge of Gov ernor Moses was read in the General Assembly. It b a lengthy, and wall-digested document nnd thoroughly exhaustive of the various subjects of State policy which it treats. The Governor advises the encouragement of Northern immi grants and of cotton and woolen manu factories; also that the Code and Re vised Statutes be modified and tritnpli fi< d; also that route and claims for sup plies be made preformed, liens upon orops. JTc also \? in- favov of abolishing the present fence laws. The message treats ih'w subject with ability and tagt, ft'* cauuut furnish tu our farmers more in teresting reading ihan the subjoined paragraphs of I he mssa-ge on this sub ject : TIIK FKN K LAW. The vory large co.isumption of timber for fenoeiug purr^sos threatens speedily to exhaust ?ho forest trees in mauy counties of (ho State, aud has (treated the gravest conoeru among our leading agriculturists, aud a wide spread desire that the existing fouco law should bo, as snon as possible, ropoulcd. As thoro has boon for somo tiaic a groat difference of opiui.m in our Sta'e as to tho legal provisions whiah should bo established in regard to the subject of fencing, I desiro to giro, tit some length, borne of the reasons whieh induce mo to recommend the abolition of out present laws and the Substitut ion of others. "2st. 'J ho building of a fe.ico, includ ing the splitting aud hauling oi the rails, is a tax upon the capital and lab >r of tho farmer cqnu], it is estimated, to at least ono-third of the market valuo of our avorngo cotton lauds. Tho money and work thus expended would if ap plied io the cultivation ?f the land, in crease, by a very large percentage, both tho area cultivated and tho pro luot-iuti thereof. 2d. Tast bodicB of arable laud that are now untillcd for want of fencing timber, ami for which, ou that acoounl, there is no sale, would readily God purchasers among our agricultural labor ers, and be yic'uing plentiful harvcsts, thus cheapening many of tho noQoasnriod of life, aud adding to the wealth of the State. 3d. T? require the farmer to fenco out his neii:hr>or> stock, instead of re quiring the owner ol the slock to feucQ it in, is a palpable act of injustice, and a monstrous instance of folly, iu a State whose wealth is agricultural, ai d do pends almost entirely on tillage and not on pnsturago. Why tdiould 1 be required to build o fcocc around my farm, nt a heavy Cost, in order to keep my neighbor's cow out of my growing crop, when 1 d rive no benefit from (hat cow ? Why should J;is property, consisting of a few roving animals, be moro saci -i in the eye of the Lw thnn the lew seres.' from which, by industrious toil, 1 do rive my daily broad ? Ik it not jmt and !sir thai ? very man should be required to exercise, reasonable care for bis own property, and not sub jeet his neighbor to any eo?t tu pruvuut that property becoming the means ol injury to tiny other class of property ? 4th. The fences themselves u.c.tpy a cont-idcruhle portion of the ele-ircd laud, tl u?- riduting tiio eultivntcd area. Olli. In ] top< rtion as the demand for fencing timlcr ex h muds the supply of trees in any locality, the price of wood f-r^fuel iyinises. which is a consider ation of great moment in :*. country whero there is no devel opment of strata of cnul. t'.tli Scicnoo and experience unite ! > prove that, in legions where s>ho l\ir?*sts are being exhausted, the fall of rain is ] roportionally 1 essend, a ad the lands are parched by long droughts that not only destroy regulation, but, Iro n the failure of water, prove fatal to stock of ?11 kinds that are permitted to run at lar, c. 1 have read that this is notably tho case, in the prniriu belt of Texas and New Mexico ; und 1 have been reliably informed that it is strikingly exhibited in those sections of Virginia where, iu the lale war, the tiees we.e destroyed for fuel and oilier purposes along ike lii.'s oi military encampments. 7th. Cattle and other other stock can be fenced in more cheaply and securely than they can be fenced out. 8th. Tha system of fencing in stock, while it lessens the original expens? of establishing a farm, will tend to increase the yield per acre, by preserving a large quantity of the natural manured, for ap plicatiou to the tilled soil. Oth. Enclosed pasturis will tend to incite among our ugriCltll nrists the cul tivation of improved grasses, :md aloo to au improvement in the breed of stock ; iu both of which particulars South Carolina is far behind most of her sister 8tato. ttfth. Our frfrYne'rs may be better en abled to rest their lands, by cultivating several tracts irr rotation, without tho ucccssity of foiiciug each*, thus rocupcr atiug soils that are threatened with to tal exhaustion by continuous cultivation, uuaidid by proper fertilizers. 1 Mi The fence law repels the ngri cultural immigrants of the Northern States, whose cultivated industry and thrifty modes of firming uru su much neodvd in this State, whore there are three acre* of arable land lying fallow fur every ncno there is tb.it is tilled. That' must valuable elavs of laborers shrink from coming into a eo uuir-y or State, in whieh, boforo they oan salely run a furrow in-a fifty aero field, they mult expend, iu some cases, mure money and. liiiior- tu build a feuou than aro re quired to build a house wherein to live. 12th. It is not only cho.ipor to fence ca'.tle iu than to fence them out, but it is far safer fur the farmer, rendering, - - ? L. 1 .1 - I1_ ? ' ' ".' . -1 . ? his crop less liable to damtsge from the inroads of stock running at largo. Many roxations lawsuits, and tho killing and woundiug of hundreds uf huad of oattl o ? that make breaches through tho fenoos, to tho great injury of growing crops, oan thus surely be prevented. 13lh. The dnngcr to life and property on our railroads is greatly increased by stock tunning at largo. In answer to theso reasons given above, which arc by no meam oxhaus tivo of the argument in favor of the abolition of tho fenco law, it is alleged? by the advocates of the fenco system: 1st. That thoro nro many poor per sona who own a few head of cattle, and do not own a sufficient quantity oi laud to pasture them on, und that suoh small land holders, if the fence law is repealed, will be compelled to sell thoir cattle for what they will bring, or let them starve; aud (hut this alternative must surely j occur to tho laigo number who own stock, but have no land at all. 2d. That there are largo tracts of land such as our pino berres nud wet bottoms, that arc fit only for grazing, and thnt, if tho fo ice law is repealed, canuot be utilized as at prevent. 3d. That many small landed .pro prietors cannot keep their necessary stock onclosed in pastures for want of localities supplied with water, and that such mast be greatly injured if obliged by law to maintain close pastures. Tho answer to-tho first objection may bo found in the following legitimate de duction from the principle on which it 'Cetns to be based : Suppose that ten persons settle in a secluded portion of the State, and that nine of them proceed to level the forests and break up the s ill to open farms, aud 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 ; aud, as he owns but five ucrcs of land, ho is opposed to re pealing the fence law, desiring his stock to range at will. The cows are worth five hundred dollars for the lot, but the cost of the lonees on the supposed farms Would at least treble or quardrupla that sum. According to the theory of this objection, that two or three thousand dollars, worth of fences must be built, aud that atnouut of the momy of the nine farmers must be locked up as so much dead capital, iu order to protect tho 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 owntd but ouc heud of roving stock ; aud thus nine farmers would have to expend ut least a thousand dollars each to build a fence to keep out from their crops one twenty five dollar cow. This fair and simple statement of the theory underlying the fenco law seems to mo suf?oicut to demoustra'o its in justice and impolicy iu our agricultural community. That the consequences to the small laudholJui, who is ubii-ed to enelusc his stock, will be as injurious as in as serted iu that objection, i.s evidence 1 by I the fact, that this very class of cattle I owner* are, I "have been told, notably prosperous on the sea coast islands in our State, whieh regions, th High of great extent, and containing an abund ance of winter pasturage of outlying stock, have been for many years exempt from the operations of the fence laws, ami now contain but few enclosed farms The second objection can be met by having a sufficient area of the wet bot toms and pine barrens enclosed for pas turcs, the proprietors charging a small fee pc?" annum. Tho third objection Would be obviated by driving tho cattle to water, or taking tho water to tho stock, or by having a well and a trough in the pasture ground. Tho sum of the winde argument against our present disastrous fence sys tem is, that all farmers arc compelled to build and keep up fences which they do not need, because some Jeattie-owners desires to gr&ge their stock on laud which thoy elo not own. I should add that provender for stock would be greatly increased in product, and consequently cheapened, by tho greater area that will surely be cttltiva ted, should all fencing be dispensed with. 1 have thus dwelt at length upon tho reasons which should operate in favor of the ahoi it in u of our fence laws?first, because I balievo that such abolition would bo tho first step taken by South Caroliua iu tho adoption of a progressive system of agriculture, in which we are signally behiud the ago; 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 againBt tho lauded prupriotar or wealthy farmer. So fur is this doo trine from being founded cur fuel, or oven dcdueiblc by rcosooublc inference, chat in many other Status whore the "no fenoo" law is of force the small and poor farmers nro the very class who most loudly protest against any change iu their laws ?u this subject.

We glean th? following notes from telegrams of our exchanges: It is reported that the Priuoe Imperi al has already assumed the titlo of Na poleon IV.

The sequel has i proved that tho policy Was carried out: m The I'h.iMiix rose from her ashes yes terday morning with that prescribed dignity which belongs to mythology and took a bird's eye view of matters and things iu general, and the judgeship of tho eighth circuit in particular. We always prefer to agree'witJi our concern poraries if we Can, aud The Herald certainly agreed with the Phcuoix when iu relation to the electi<Ai for ju.lgo, it says "that tho judge should dwell in a col atmosphere/1 Hut wo should sug gest that at this season, the judge elect Would have no very embarrassing choice and in the summer he could find no cool er atmosphere provided for b}' the con stitutiou of this State. We also consent to the general proposition that a candi date should be elected upen merit. "Paluiatn ?|ui meruit ferst" will occur to the Pbpeuix as an old and honorable uiuxio; but as a mr.n Sau not be saved by faith aloue, neither should ho be eieeted by merit alone. It is an esscu tial requisite?not the only one. We make the s<juaro issue in this matter at once. We hVdievc it is best to do so, because we say that the election of a Democrat to office is a virtual ad mission that the Republican party has no man oi sullicient merit in it* ranks to lilt the place. We are weary aud worn with this spirit of crimination uud recrimination within our lines, aud of fawning and cringing to IIkwc who claim to sit in the temple of virtue and intelligence. 'J he Pharisee aud tho Publieau, in the days of tho Mosaic dispensation might find a parallel in th* Pharisee and Re publieau of theuc dis j lull ted times. We take the high ground ill this mat tor that pi litica aro little wore or le?s than the theory of government reduced to practice. Political philosophy, pol - tical economy and subjects of that char acter nlate to the science of government. Politics, as illustrated by earn >aiguiugon the stump and the elective franchise iu the ballot box, relate tr the s ime science. Some ignorant people imagine th-?t the I true politician is greatly concerned -ib nit the an Inn attt?el id to an office, but that is evidently not so. When the Dc;oo crata ruhd the laud there were Demo* crr.ts on the bench everywhere, and the Saw was eve ywherc Democratic. When the Republi ans overthrew thorn, they changed the law. NoW if it Was right that n Democratic judge shuuld always administer Democratic law, it ought to be right that a Republican judge should administer Republican law. A Demo cratic chief justice of a Democratic Supreme Court announced that the Dred Scott decision was the law of the laud, to wit : "that a negro had no rights that a white man was bcund to | respect," and, we allude to it iu no "bit- t ter partisan spirit," Democratic judges saw that the law was enforced. The Phoenix is mistaken. The Democrats have tried to elect certain Repu'ilioans, but not when in power. They usver have been iu power since the Coustitu tional Convention made the attempt simply to break the Kepub icau lines They want us lo elect a Democratic judge, at this time, fur the s-une purpose. In other words, wo must do for them what they miserably failed to do for themselves. We won't do it. We siy lo our friends in the Legislature, stand by your colors. Up ouco more with the Republican flag, and let it wave iu the hands of an honest, able, sterling, Re publieau judge ovtr the expectant mountains of the eighth circuit. We I waut to send them another such a man as the Hon. T. J. Maokey, aud wo shall make our party respected iu the strong hold of uur cueuiies. Ccteri* paribus. I We [.refer a Republican, and, until we fail tu find a*:iung ourselves honosl aiid competent men, we would be insane to \ look for our officers among our enemies. I We may havo a high regard for the candidates of the opposition in this eleo tion ; but we beliovc that the best way to insure a mutual respect would be to 1 aet exactly as they would do towards us under the same circumstauccs, aud vote solidly against thorn.
