Cotton Manufacture.
At a meeting of the stockholder* of
the Granitoville Mills, (8. 0.) in the
spring of 1872, tho President proposed
to double the capacity of the mills in
three years and yot pay a dividoud of
ten cent per annum.
Can any Northern factory make a
better oxhibits? Thocottou mills of Au
gusta aud Colnmbu8, Ga., are doing
proportionately well.
'The Augusta mills, with a capital
stock of $600-005, had in 1870, $400,
000 as a surplus fund aud commercial
captial after paying quarterly dividend
of 5 per cent or 20 per cent, per an
unm.
It has been practically djuionstratcd
that cot'pu can be spun into yarns at
tthe South for 5 ceuts per pound cheap
er than it can be spuu in.Old or New
England conscipictit'y, a properly con
ducted ruill could nuko fi>e ceota. on caeh
pound of yam moro than the Northern
factories which have bee.u enriching
their stockholders aud peopling with
teeming thousand.-; the rocky bills of the
vest.
Could the entire crop of cotton bo
converted into yarns at the South, and
I shipped abroad in that form it would
add ?150.000,000 annually to the wealth
! of this portion of tho Uuitcd States For
l eign mills would adapt their machinery
to working up the yurtns instead uf the
???tsw" cotton. If but one qu irter of the
crop could bo thus converted it would
be a great blessing to this country and
enable number of women end chil Iren
?ho fi?e sow dependent on others to

The Cotton Tax.
At Wnrhington,- od the evening of
Jan. 18ih, neurly all1 tvte members of
Congress from the cotton Slates held 'a
conference, and agreed on a neit bill to
reft.nd the cotton tax, which they will
pros in Congress at this session.
This uew bill is in lien of the ens of
which a synopsis was published in the
Nkw*.
The provisions of tfie nw# Mill sre
materially different frdm those of the
first, and- cnrelully looks after the inte
rests of the plaiithr% sod' fireedmen in
uueuring to t/ici*, and not to the specula-'|

for a song, the absolute return of the
cotton tax they have paid.
We shall ktep* our readers informed
of tho action of Congress, in this inte
resting matter.
Tho Bowon-Do Large Contest
?
The report of the Commit tc- on Elec
tions in the case of C. C. Bowcn, con
testing the seat of R. 0. PoLorge, from
the Second- Congressional District of
this State has been made in tho House
of Representatives in Congress. It
states that the committee find, upon the
whole evidence, that PeLargo did not
receive the majority Of the votes legally
east, and is therefore not entitled to his
seat. The report recommends s resolution
that neithet of the contestants should
take the seat, bot does not find that
Bowen is disqualified, from occupying it/
Tho committee report that the allege
tion that tho counsel of Do Large was,
bribed, aud 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 Orangcburg, eroet neat
and cheap cottages which could be
rented at moderate rates. Our enquiry
and suggestion have met with interest
and far - on the part of those who
would be the occupants of the proposed
homes. On tie new street there are
many most dosirable lots. Why do not
the owners of these act upon our Bug
gcation.
Cottagca of four rooms, can bo erected
for little or nothing The weather
boarding need not bo planed. Hough
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, aud
tho great improvement it will be to our
pretty and growing Town are the con
siderations, which urge us to press this
subjecS.
We are happy restate that oat sug
gestion has been easght ssp by some lot
owners. No less than four sumM nenb
residences-are about' to be erected.
The new street lies beautifully open
to view from tho railroad, and> built wp
along ^its line with pretty homes, would
be a ch .iming and picturesque picture
to the traveller ou the high road through
the State.
Build, build, build ! It is the beat
investment that could be made.
The Kotloc Indians?They Defeat
the United States Troops.
She telegraph during the last week
brought tidings from California of the
crushing defeat uf I'nitud States troops
by the Modoc Iudiaus. Gen. iVheaton
was in command uf the soldiers engaged
in action agaiua these Indians ; aud on
Friday the )?lh instant, a severe battle
was fought near Tu-Io Lake. Ihe U. S.
troops numbered about four hundred
men. Captain Jack was the Indian
commander. He had about two hundred
braves concealed among the rocks along
a line of two miles in length. On Fri
day morning Captain Bernard opened
buttle. General Wheaton was distant
about twelve miles when he heard the
firi.ig commence. The troops fought an
unseen foe from [eight in the morning
till dark. The loss to the troops was
forty, killed aud wounded, that of the
Indians is unknown. The troops were
finally obliged to retreat.
The movement is called a reconoi**-.
anec in fore of Captain Jack's position.
It is said that it will require one
thousand men to dislodge the Indians
from their position.
The troops for the present can only
wait and endeavor to prevent the Modoc
from raiding on the settlements. Serious
apprehensions are cnlortuincd.
Will the red man retake, his lost
inheritance ? Oh !

The Lien Law.
Several propositions are under con
sideration iu the Legislature, iu regard
to tho law of l ens. Some of llicso go
to abolishing the cjitire,law, others fo
waking important modifications and
changes in its operation. As the law
now stands, the merchant or factor,
making advances to the farmer for
agricultural purposes, has a preferred
lien upon the crop of tho hitter, to the
amouut 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 aco no
evil in this provision of law. It is
urged with some degree of truth that
this system of advances is u result of the
war nnd is pernicious iu so far that a
great temptation is opened to the far
mer to bo extravagant in uotting advances
bcyoud tho value of his crop which is
held to jay for th' pi, This objection j?
however rather an Individual one with
each farmer, and does not militate
against tho law, which certainly has a
tendency to euoourage aud help tho far
incr. 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 scon
oiny and management with hilUMOlf.
There is a large class of small farmers)
jolt starting "farms of their own, to
whom this law is most beneficial and
almost necessary.- They are deeply
iuttorestted' in the continuance of the law
iu its present form, and it is a questiou
if they art not vastly in the majority of
those engaged io agricultural piitttlits,
It sceuis that tho objection to tho law
as it now stands arose irotu the practice
of certain small merchants in the
country, of including tlint*le*y% which is
largely aud liberally furnished, in tbo
list of agricultural supplies. This is
very Arcadian, and is a blissful union
of tho orgies of Pan and Bacchus, but
it certainly is not legal. However
stimulating to the fertile brain, whiskey
may be, it is a very poor stimulating
fertilizer to the soil, and while it will
soon send men to "grass" is very poor
pasturage for stock.
This practice is simply an abuse and
violation of the law, and can net be
urged as an objection to it provisions
Ouc uf these change* proposed to tkc
law, is to give the owrtei of the I.nd a
preferred lied ou the crop ol the tenant
for the rent. It is far easier for the
small farmer, just "making bis farm"
to get land than supplies. And like
wise it is easier for the landlord to col
lect bis rent than for the merchant tu
get remuneration for his advances.
The one is upon the ground and near
er to the tenant a..d knows his renter
better than than the other at a distance,
and unable to know bis man or watch
his crop. Only a good tenant can gel
land, and there is c< ff?i tjUently less
necessity fur 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 mm of the State, and bttfl cer
tainly aided and encouraged agriculture.
Let the law, which has stood the tost
of experience, s and as it is, but let any
abuse e U j r . i i a stric ly w.:t h d
and peremptorily punished. Some
legislation looking to the puuismcut of
patties violating the law. as lor a niisde
mcinor, or for fraud oi over reaching
in its application, is what wo think is
needed. Nuthing eise.
The House ol Representatives has,
however, on Tuesday hi-t, strichen out
the enacting ch ttsc of the hill to repeal
the lien law uf ISliii. 'ibis was the
most diuiaixo and important of the
measures against tho law as it now
