Cotton IK mm fact ure.
At a meeting of tlie stockholders of
tho Granite vi He Mills, (8. G.) in the
spring of 1872, the President proposed
to double the capaoity of the mills in
three yoars and yot pay a dividend of
ten cent per annum.
Can any Northern factory maVe a
bettor exhibits? Thocottou mills of Au
gusta aud Columbus, Gu , are doing
i proportionately well.
""The Augusta mills, with a eapital
stock of $600 005, had in 1870, ?400,
000 us a eurplUs fund aud commercial
captial after paying quarterly dividend
of 5 per cent or 20 per cent, per an
I uim.
It baa been practically demonstrated
tbatcot'ou cau bo spou iuto yarns at
-tbe South for 5 coots per pouid cheap
er than it can be span in.Ohl or New
England consequent.,y, a properly con
! ducted mill could nuke five cents on caeh
pound of yarn more than the Northern
factories which have beeu enriching
their stockholders and peopling with
tccqiing: thousands the rocky hills of the
west.
Could the entice crop of cotton be
converted into yarns at the South, and
, phipped abroad in that form it would
add $150.000,000 annually to tho wealth
: .of this portion of the Uuited States For
eign mills would adapt their machinery
to working up the yarius instead ?f the
r?I?w ooiton. If but one qu irtcr of the
( crop could bo thus oonvcrted it would
be a great blessing to this country and

Tho Bowen*De Large Contest.
The report of tho Committee Ott Klee
tioot io the ease of C. C. Howen, con
testing the seat of R. G. Do Large, from
the Second Concessional District of
this State has uecu made in the House
of Representatives in Congress. It
states that the committee find, upon tho
whole evideuoe, that DeLarge did not
receive tho majority of the votes legally
east, and is therefore not entitled to his
seat. The report recommit;da a resolution
that neithet of the contestants should
take the teat, bat does not find that
Bowen is disqualified, from occupying it/
The committee report that the allege
tion that tho counsel of DeLarge was.
bribed, and withheld evidence io his
possession, was true.
More on the Santo Subject
Wo enquired in our last issue very
pertinently, why do not owners of lots
in and around Orangeburg, ereat neat
and cheap cottages which could be
rented at moderate rates. Our enquiry
and suggestion have met with interest
and favor en the part of those who
would be the occupnnta of the proposed
homes. On the new street there vre
many most desirable lots. Why do not
the owners of these set upon our sug
gent ion.
Cottages of four rooms, can bo erected
for little or nothing The weather
boarding need not bo planed. Rough
boards white-washed make just as pretty
an exterior, as planed boards and paint
and is of course immeasurably cheaper.
The convenience of a large and increas
ing, class of our very best citizens, and
the great improvement it will be to our
pretty and growing Town are the con
siderations, which urge us to press this
subject.
We ars happy fo state tliat on* sug
gestion has been cau?ght wp by seme lot
owners. No less than four stnttil neat)
residences'are abou0 to be erected.
The new street lies beautifully open
to view from tho railroad, and? built tfp
along 'm\ta line with pretty homes, would
be a charming and picturesque picture
to the traveller ou the high road through
the State.
Build, build, build ! It is the best
investment that could be made.
The Modoc Indians?They Defeat
the United States Troops.
She telegraph during the last week
brought tidings from California of the
crushing defeat of I'nited States troops
by the Modoc Indians. Gen. "iVheaton
was in command ofthe soldiers engaged
iu action ngains these Indians j aud on
Friday tbe )?lh instawt, e severe battle
was fought near Tulc Lake. The U. 8.
troops numbered about lour hundred
men. Captain Jack was the Indian
commander. He had about two huudred
braves concealed among (he rocks along
a line of two miles io length. On Fri
day morning Captain Bernard opened
buttle. General \Yhe-ton was distant
about twelve miles when he heard the
f:; :..g commence. The troops fought an
unseen foe from {eight in the morning
till dark. The loss to the troops waa
forty, killed and wounded, that ofthe
Indiana is unknown. The troops were
finally obliged to retreat.
Tho movement is called a reconohV.
aneo in fore of Certain Jack's position.
It is said that it will require one
thousand men to dislodge the Indiana
from their position.
The troops for the present can only

The Lien Law.
Several propositions are under con
sideration iu the Legislature, iu regard
to the law of l etis. Some id' thes'! go
to abolishing the entire law, others to
making important modifications and
changes in its operation. As the law
now stands, the merchant or factor,
making advances to tho farmer for
agricultural purposoa, has a preferred
lien upon tho crop ofthe latter, to the
amount of the price of the supplies so
advanced. With the exception of
exorbitant prices sometimes demanded
and high rates of interest charged by
the merchants ot factors, we can see no
evil in this provision of law. It is
I urged with some degree of truth that
this sy.-tcm of advances is u result of the
war and is pernicious iu so far that a
great temptation is opened to the far
mer tobe extravagant iu getting advances
beyond the vaiuo of his crop which U
held to j ay for 0?' Rh This objection j,
however rather an individual ono with
each farmer, and docs not militate
against the law. which certainly has a
tendenoy to ouoourage aud help the far
luer. Whether ho avails himself ol
the opportunity thus afforded by the law,
or whether ho is extravagant and unwise
in its use, is of course a matter of soon
omy aud management with himself.
There is a large elaasof small farmers}
jutt starting "farms of their owu, to
whom this law is most beneficial and
almost necessary.- They are deeply
iuttorcstrud' in the continuance of tho law
in its present form, and it is a questiou
if thoy ar t not vastly in> the majority of
those engaged in agricultural pursuits.
It kccujs that tho objection to tho law
as it now atauds arose from the practice
of certain small merchants in the
country, of including ilhitkry, which is
largely and liberally furnished, in tho
list of agricultural supplies. This is
very Arcadian, and is a blissful union
of tho orgies of Pan and Bscchus, but
it certainly is net legal. However
stimulating to the fertile brain, whiskey
may be, it is a very poor stimulating
fertilizer to the soil, and while it will
Boon send men to "grass" is very poor
pasturage for stock.
This practice is simply an abuse nud
violation of the law, and cannot bo
urged as an objection to it provisious
One of these change* proposed to tkc
law, is to give the owriel of the l.nd a
preferred Ii cd on the crop ol tbe tenant
for the rent. It is far easier for tbe
small farmer, just "making bis farm"
to get land than supplies. And like
wise it is easier for the landlord to col
lect his rent than fur the merchant to
get remuuoration for his advances.
Tbe one is upon the ground and near
er to the tenant a .d knows his renter
better than than the other at a distance,
aud unable to know his mail or watch
his crop. Only a good tenant can get
land, and there is e ns quently less
necessity for so high a security to be
given the 'landlord for the collection of
his rent.
The lien law as it now stands is wise
and has been a benefit add blessing to
the poor men of tho State, and has cer
tainly aided and encouraged agriculture.
Let the law, which has stood the test
of experience, s and as it is, but let any
abuse e t< . r . i i ? str:c ly w..t h d
and peremptorily punished. Some
legislation looking to the puuismcnl of
patties violating the law, as for a misdu
met nor, or for fraud or over reaching
in its application, is what we think is
needed. Nothing else.
The House of Representatives has,
however, on Tuesday la?t, atrioken out
the enacting th mc of the bill to repeal
the lien law of IStid. 1 bis was the
most diciaho and important of the
measures against tho jaw ns it now.
