Cotton Manufacture. Ata meeting of the stockholders, of the Granitoville Mills, (8. C.) in tho spring of 1872, tho President proposod to double the capacity of tho mills in throo years and yet pay a dividend of ien cent per annum. Can any Northern factory make a better oxhibits? Tho cotton mills of Au gusta aud Columbus, Go.., ure doing j ^proportionately well. The Augusta mills, with a capital stock of 8600 005, had in 1870, $400, 000 as a surplus fund aud commercial enptia! after paying quarterly dividend of 5 per cent or 20 per cent, per an i i.mn. It has becu practically demonstrated that cot'on can bo Bp tin iuto yarns at -.the South for 5 cents per pound cheap er than it can be spuu in,.Old or New England consequently, a proparly con ducted mill could nako live cents on caeh pound of ynru moro than the Northern factorios which havo hceu enriching their stockiiolders and peopling with teeming thousands the rocky hills of the west. Could the sntitc crop of cotton bo converted into yarns at the South, and i shipped abroad in that form it would add 8150.000,000 annually to the wealth : of this portion of the Uuited States Por ? eign mills would adapt their machinery to working up tho yartus instead ?f the ?4WW'0otton.

At Wellingtonf. on the evening of Jan. 18tb, neurly all1 the members of Congress from the cotton Slates he] 1 n sonferonce, and agreed on a nett bill to refund tbo cotton lax, which they will press in ('engross at this session.

It states that the committee 6nd, upon tho whole evidence, that DeLarge did not receive the majority of the votes legally east, and is therefore not entitled to his sest. The report recommends a resolution that neithet of the contestants should take the seat, hut does not find that Bowen is disqualified, from occupying it* Tho committee report that the allege tion that the counsel of Do Large was bribed, and withheld evidence in his possession, was true. More on the Same Subject. We 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 wiih interest aud favor on the part of those who would be the occupants of the proposed homes. On the new street there are many most desirable lots. Why do not the owners of these act upon our sug gestion. Cottages of four rooms, can bo erected for little or nothing The weather boarding need not bo planed. Rough boarda white-washed make just as pretty an exterior, as planed boards and paint and ia 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 are happy to state that our sug gestion has been eawght wp by some lot owners. No less than four snmil nenb residences-are about1 to be erected. The new street lies beautifully open to view from the railroad, and> built op along ^its line with pretty homes, Would be a charming and picturesque picture to the traveller on the high road through the State Build, build, build !

She telegraph during the last week brought tidings from California of the crushing defeat of Cnitud States troops by the Modoc Indians. Gen. Wheaton was iu command of the soldiers engaged im action ngains these Indians ; aud on Friday the 17lh instant, a severe battle was fought near Tule Lake. The U. S. troops numbered about four hundred men. Captain Jack was the Indian commander. Us-had about two hundred braves concealed among (he rocks along a line of two miles in length. On Fri day morning Captain Bernard opened buttle. General Wheaton was distant abont twelve miles when he heard the firi.ig commence. The troops fought an unseen foe from Jeight in the morning till dark. The loss to the troops was forty, killed aud wounded, that of the Indiana is unknown. The troops were finally obliged to retreat. Tho movement is called a reconois*-. anec in fore of Captain Jack's poaition. It is said that it will require one thousand men to dislodge the Indiana from their position. The troops for the present can only wait aud endcaver to prevent the Modoc from raiding on the settlements. Serious apprehensions are endcrtuincd. Will the red man retake, his lost inheritance ? Oh ! General Assembly. Since our last our legislators have been activo, although a quorum has been wanting sometimes. A joint resolution has been intro duced in the House of Representatives, authorising the Governor to appoint three commissioners to investigate the amount and validity of the State debt, and to empower these commissioners to stamp officially the bonds and stocks found to be genuine. The proposition has however met with strong opposition. It proposes to givo these commissioners too much power. It has been suggested to amend so as to refer this matter and confer this power of investigation upon a Hoard to consist of the Governor the Tro isurer, and the Attiprncy Goneral. A bill has been introduced in the house to provide for a compulsory registration births, deaths and mar riages.

The Lien Law. Several propr>s:tirns arc under con sideration in the Legislature, in regard to the law of 1 etis. Some of these Co to ubolishiULT the entire law, uth> rs to making important modifications and changes in its operation. As the law now stands, the merchant or factor, muking advances to the farmer for agricultural purposes, has a preferred lien upon the crop of the 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 oi factors, we can see no evil in this provision of law. It is urged with some degree of truth that this systom of advances is a result of the war and is pernicious in so far that a grout temptation is opened to the far mer tobe extravagant in getting advances beyond tbo value oi his crop which it held to j ay for th in. This objection is however rather nu Individual ono with each farmer, and does not militate against the law, which certainly has a tendency to oueourage and help the far mcr. Whether bo avails himself ol the opportunity thus afibrdod by tho law. or whether he is extravagant and unwise in its use, is of course a matter of aeon omy and tuaiiageutont with lliiirsolf. There is a large elass of small farmers; just starting "farm- of their own, to whom this law is most beneficial and almost necessary. They nro deeply interested in the continuance of the law in its present fufm, nnd it is a question if they arj not vastly in the majority of those engaged in agricultural pursuits, It Reutti thai tha objection to tho law as it now stands arose iroiu the practice of certain nil-.11 merchants iu the country, of iueluding i?huucey, which is largely aud liberully furnished, in tho list of agricultural supplies. This ia very Arcadian, and is a blissful union of tho orgies of Pan and Hacchus, but it certainly is not legal. However stimulating to the fertile brain, whiskey may be, it is a very poor stimulating fertilizer to the Boil, and while it will soon send men to "grass" is very poor pustnrage for stock. This practice is simply an abuse and violation of the law, and cannot be urged as an objection to it provisions Ouc of these changes proposed to tke law, is to give the ownei of the I nd a preferred lied on the crop ot the tenant for the rent. It is far vasier for the small farmer, just "making his farm" to get land than supplies. Ami like wise it is easier for the landlord to col lect his rent than for the merchant to get remuneration for his advances. The ouc is upon the ground and near er to the tenant and knows his renter better than than the other at a distance, aud unablo to know his man or watch his crop. Only a good tenant can pet land, ami there is c ns qnently less necessity for so high a security to be given the 'landlord for the collection of his rent. The lien law as it now stand.-, is wise ami has been a benefit add blessing to I the p< or men of tho State, and has cer tainly aided and encouraged agriculture. Let the law, which has s\.1 th : test of experience, stand as it is, hut lot any abuse 9 t4 r ? i i s strc ly Wat h d and peremptorily punished. Some legislation looking to the puuhmicul ol patties violating the law, as lor a misdo mcinor, or for fraud or over reaching in its application, is what we think is noedod. Nothing else. The House ot Representatives has, however, on Tuesdnj la-t, stricken out the enact inj; eh use < I the hill to repeal the lien law of l?iil>. 3 llifi was the most dich>i\c and important of the ir.crsuics against tho law as it now stands, and TtTO'tiWu^y^ff ?f ?Uta l-?l! t. deemed by many to he the tin .1 disp-si? lion the subject.
