SATURDAY, FEU. 1, IS7 \
The Value of Human Life.
The highest duty of law, and tile first
principle of order is the ptotection of
human life. The estimate of value put
upon life is the truest iudex of the social
purity as well as the morality of a state.
One of the saddest commentaries up
on the above truisms, as well as the sad
dest phase of the cu rent his'ory of
this nation is the wanton disregard of
life in .New York City, our great
National metropolis.
Crime there holds high carnival, and
: in the reeking revelry, murder is
the pleasing theme of interest, und the
hujt.an butcher is. a hero. The hlo >dy
catalogue swells in bulk, daily, and
furnishes every variety of fascinating
horror. The newspapers, reCecting the
evet.ts of life, tell the thrilling dctail
of death, and are filled with aeeiui of
tragedy,, which h?ve- beco-rue the daily
bread of the mental demand"' for reading
matter and uews. Accustomed to
butchering, blood, passion and murder,
the public mind is so diseased and j
morbidly deteriorated as to eins?st look
fcr aud expect the regular qaotu of
hiwror. ?
To seek for the ratine of this is no
difficult task. The problein is easily
solved
So heroic become the ninrdt rcrs, such
ol jects of admiration and envy, and so
gloriously acquitted or pardoned that a
prcmuim is put upon crime*, aud the
young man in New York who iu any
wise controls hid brutal und murderous
passions is deemed the eeriest of cowards.
To kill a man is to become a hero, is
the practical result of all this, and the
modern udage that "kiMing is uo tnuc
der" has become the rule of social con
duct and the law of the Slate.
Murder while not the .basest is the
highest oud worse crime of humanity,
and should be must peromptoiily pun
ished.
The easy escape of the murderer and
his glorification is the fruitlul causo of
tho tnirifio incieasc of this crime in
New York.
But there secais to be a reaction at
last. The mind hungry foe horror, is
satisfied, and the reign.of terror see as
to bo at its own legj?mute eud.
Stokes,, iu. his murdurar's cell bojiiu t<>
It olaimod, aud it is said that a howl of
raget arises fcoiu the ?eure of murderers
in the Homba ev.ony,, time a fresh IUUI
der is announocd. Kuoh criuinoJ feels
that his owu prospoet of escape is.lesson
ed by ouch additional deeds of butchery.
A reporter gives n partial list as follows :
"The. more conspicuous reside u La of
the celebrated " u.urdorers' row in tho
Tombs ut prcsout are Stokes, tho slayer
of Colonel Fiak ; Foster, the car hook
murderer j Scauncl, the politician who
shot ?onoh'ie ; Hh-ukley, who killed his
niece, Muud Merrill, becauso she would
not abandon a life of aha me J, King, who
abut O'Neill, iu'.r.ine atront ? Slun key,
who murdered his frteud<iJuan, from,
mere druuken wantounneis, 'and Sim
mons, the gambler, who butchered his
business rival on the sidewalk, iu Cedar
Street. There are other murderers,
chiefly laboring men, in the Tombs, but
they belong to the .small Cry, and being
unablo to adorn, their cells with pictures,
lounges on,d sofy carpels, arc unworthy
of being written up by the roportors. It
will be observed that a large proportion
of tho distinguished murcb'rors woro
actuated in their criino by the motive of
revenge. Stokes, Scanncl, King nnd
Simmons evidently contemplated killing
their victims for souie time previous
Scnnuol was ou the track of Donohuc
for two years. King arranged bis
tragedy with great deliberation boforo
band on the model of tbo ?Vtokos Fisk
affair. Foster aud Sharkey were drunk
when they committed murder, but thoy
belong to the order of ruffians which
ought to be taught that life must be
held sacred. Tho only ouo of th* above
batch for whom any sympathy is ex
cusablo is Blcakloy. There are some
slight cxtcuuatiug circumstances in bis
caso.
Two more murders hsvo recently becu
added to tho black list.
Ou Monday labt a young newspaper
compoaitor named Magruder. deliberately
and in exquisite tang froid shot and
murdered a fellow craftsman for "satis
faction." Tbo victim is Mr. Clarence
Lookwood, a ^native of Spartanbnrg, iu
this Stato.
And the last mnrdor was equally
deliberate and cause less. A bill poster
named Nixon, killed an exptess driver,
because their vehicles bneaiue onUnglad
in the crowd in Chatham street.
It is time, high time that that the
flow of blood should stop.
Somo ouo has proposed that the whole
batch of murderers, now lying in the
Tombs, should bo executed, all together,
and thus afford a spectacular lesson,
which wnuld toaoh tho puople tho sa
oreducss of human life, and afford a
memorable aud awful warning fur the
future.
And truly it seems that tho offended
and outraged majesty of tho law, shdutd
bo thus summarily vindicated.

On Saturday last Mr. Joseph Crews
iutioducad an important bill to provide
for the keeping and pasturage of stock,
which we think commends itself to the
I deliberate aud favorable attention of our
j legislators.
j The bill provides that if any horses,

Tho Failure of I] to Cotton Tax
Bill
In tho House of ] ieprtscntatives of
Congress on Monday ? resolution in
structing the Coiuiui fee of Ways and
Means to report a l Jl to refund the
cotton tax was lost
105.
This is the first bllw this important
measure of simple jujice has received
We trust thut it will
other way, aud be
J
during the present sosViou of Congress
he voto was 7G to
come up in some
pressed through
On this subject
Chronicle says : "Tho
the Washington
development of
the solid strength of the movement for
refunding the cotton
tax has naturally
excited much rcma^fc and comment
Tho entire uuity ci
he cotton States
has comj.'etclv ??"?Jweied *hc objection
that it is simply u speculation in the b?nde
of lawyers and lobbyists. The weight
iest objection in the few of the bill is
that a large portion Jpf the claims for
rebate of tax is in thojhands of lawyers
To this it is replied Wat threo-fourths
of the claims before the Court of Claims
aud beforo Congress iro to day in the
bauds of lawyers Who are prosecuting
them lor contingent foe*?that is, for per
ceutage of the proccedin case ufsucocss
If the cotton tax claims are to be rejec
ted on this ground, |ufl?*dl those other
claims be set aside at Au?c for the same
reee n. If these are rfot ??! -mi-scd, then
the clatuia for refuudiljc this tax ought
not to be.
The fact that this clsiui is a large one
makes no difference- fl'he aggregate of
those other claims vehich are being
prosecuted for cnnting&nt fees is a much
larger sum- If thisjBnctlee of contin
gent foes is wrong it An be broken down
by establishing a rule against it, and
enforce the rule in every ease* The
government must then provide and pay
attorneys for claim wits who h ive not
ready mouey with which to pay counsel,
as itr>douc in oriminal ease*. Until this
is done, say tho friends of this bill
the above argument has not a feather's
Weight against the refunding of the
tar.
Put the amonut is very largo. To
this the advocates of the measure reply;
"The ei|ubty sot the amount of the
claim is the point to bo considered A
just debt is not the less just because it is
large." 'I be 1'nitcd States has had tho
use of this money from four to seven
years without interest. The caimauta
propose to take in payment bonds which
give forty years more in which bo pay
it. This surely give? tho United. States
more advantage thuu any lair mind* d
creditor could ask.
The constittioual argument wrll give
rise probably to vigorous and interesting
debute. 'J his. the friends of the bill
alii: to, is exactly what they wuut, aud
that they have no four of the result.

Cuintou's Prodigy Cotton.*
Colonel W. IP. Cannon, ?f. St. Ste
phen's, has sue ceded, by careful' selec
tion, in obtaining a variety of cotton,
which in productiveness, goes far beyond
any other variety of the staple of which
there is iccord.
In 1871-'72 Colonel Cannon, noticed
in his field a cotton boll with eight locks
twico tho usual number. This boll was
raised from improved Diekson seed.
The boll ga-ve sixty-four seeds, which
were carefully plauted, but heavy rains
came ou and only five pl?ntswere raised.
The bolls on these plants werj mixed,
probably a fourth having eight locks,
ami tho remainder only four and five.
It was remarked, however, that the bolls
whichi had the smuljox number of kecks j
were far richer and >hotUUO< tban the
bolls of ordinary cotton. The oight
lock bolls were carefully picked aud
the seed planted. Tho cultivation was
imperfect, anu the cotton was ouly wor
ked fence-. Tet Colonel Jaonors has
made enough o!7.too eight-lock bolls to
! furnish-seed for a half or three-quarters
ef au acre. Tho characteristics of tho
crop were the same as in the preceding
s?ssen. More than onvfourth of tho
cotton waa of tho eight-lock variety, and
tho remainder was thicker and fuller
than fine varieties of ordinary cotton-.
And the eight-lock cotton- hy evidently
progressive, for this sossoq Colonel Can
-_-. , r v ,j , ,,tm
uoo has picked several boils which bar*
ticelte lock? each. Some idea of the
productiveness of tbe Prodigy Cotton,
ns it is well called, muy be derived fr-ra
the fact that oao hundred stalks of the>
eight lock produced sixty pounds o#
seed cotton, which is equal to six tbntf'
saftd pound* to the acre. Colonel Can
non, whose address is St. Stephen's D?
p6t, Northeastern Kailroad, has a fW
hundred of tho seed of eight lock cotton"
which he will sell at ouo dollar a seed'.'
The seed of four lock aud five-lock cotton'
raised on the same land as '.he eight lock*
will be sold at twenty five cents a
seed.
It is difficult to realize tho revolution
iu cotton planting which is uow going
n With improved cultivation and a
careful selection of seed the ymhl to the'
r acre may be doubled and trebled. Cer
tain it is that the growim of cotton in*
South Carolina offers to the lb . fly and
industrious farmer an immediate support
and the prospect of a comfortable home'
in the uot distant future.
