C 1. This undertaking, which has the sanction and support of the Governor of the State of South Carolina and many of its chief citizens, is for tho purpose ot rehabilitating nnd beneficially develop ing large freohold rice plantations and naval store timber tracts of extraordin ary riehuoss and fertility thrown out of cultivation by the late wnr. 2. These lands are composed of rich alluvial soil of great depth, yearly renewed by the deposits brought down by the rittcrs, and thus nude practically inexhaustible nud independent of artifi cial manures; thoy arc well known to be among tho best rice plantations in the Stale, nearly all being perfectly safe from Irojhets aad salts. Their value I before the war, with clean rioe at on : 'half its present price, was from 150 dollars to 300 dollars (?30 to ?00) per aero, and their average production from 150 to 70 bushels por acre?i yield which created a ud yearly addo I to the -great wealth ^>f their proprietors, and ' which must be again oquullcd under penewed cultivation with fresh capital. 3. Twenty-two of tho estates are on the North Santae Rivers and three on the Aahepoo ; thoy comprise an area of HG.GGH acres of freehold land, of which 10,113 acres arc rico lands under bank, with about 2,000*acres now in cultiva tion ; 8,7"0 ncros of rice land not under hank ; 2,700 acres oleard upland for corn, cotton, &c., an 1 15,002 acres wood laud, on which there are pine for ests for rosin, turpentine, &c, besidos 'much heavy timber, such as live-oak, whito oak, cedar, Sec , invaluable for shipbuilding and other ootnuitroial pur poses. Upon tho various ostatos there aro 18 dwolliug for managars and over eoers, with all nooussary outbuildings, about 200 Sabourors' cottages, 30 baras, and many other buildings, together with 10 steam threshing mills, engines, boil ers, elevators, fans, and all uooessary machiuery, to thresh and prepare tho rough rico or paddy. 4. The rioe grown upon these estates, known as Northum Rio, is the heaviest and best that is brought to the market i of Charleston, and always coiotniud* a bettor prico tinu that grown further south. From 19 to 21 bushels of Santee rough rice make n barrel or tioroo ef GOOibs. ol clean rico, while it requires from 15 to 20 per cent, move ot the Southern rioe to produce tho same quan tity. It is the moat certain orop that can bo grown. Excluding the accidents 1 of salt rim) frs^hcts (from which, us ho fore stated, these lands are mostly pro - teoted by their situation)' there oan, with ordinary caro, scarcely be any failure. {?( \f\ 5. The preeeut price of clean ;rice iu the Churloatou market is 7 to 8 cents per lb., or just double what it was be fore tbo wur, and, furthermore, it is protected by a duty of 2 couts per lb. upon all imports of foreign rice. But iu the estimates herein given the price nssumod lor tho rico (1 40 dols. por bushel in tho (rough) equal to 48 cents per lb. of clean, and, at the same time, no notico is taken of the value of tho pine and other limber lands, which can be worked to gr.^at advantage. 6. Including whnt is now in cultiva tiun, it is contemplated to have in seed by the Spring of 1875 about 10,000 acres of rico land, and during that time to put under bank some thousands of additional acres; to repair and oonneot two canals gving through tho estates, and otherwise vigorously bring the pro perty into profitiblo operation. Tho result of forking the said 10,000 acres will be as follows, and will thus pro vide tho cash required for dividends, drawings, ?fcc. 7. A large portion of tbeso lands have produced, year afior year, 50 to 70 bushels of rice per aere. Estimating, however, only -10 bushels per acre, thoro would bo? 400,000 bushols at 81 40 . 8560,000 24,000 bushels of seed rice iu addition to above crop, at 2 dols. 48,000 Straw (used for paper making), at 2 dols. per acre.?. 20,000 Profit from naval stores. 10,000 Kent and income from stores, ka . 75,000 Sale of Timber. 71Hr00() Deduct cost of working... 320,800 Not profit. S3?2,700 The above calculations are based up on the experience of old rice planters, whose statements are duly sworn to and certified by the British Consul at Charleston, who also gives his voluntary certificate! j[and opinion of the great value of these lands and their profit by culture. 8. The reports ot Messrs, Arthur Middlcton, Kawlins, IT Lowndjs, John A. Hume, nil old-experience I rice plan ters, und of II. l'inckncy Walker, li-tq., Her Britannic Majesty's Consul at Charleston, fully corroborate, by their own personal kuowlodge, the foregoiug fl!Ulem?hl.-~-fr 9. Tho grea t want of the Socth, in endeavouring to rovivo and develop hsr enormous resources of agricultural wealth, particularly the rice fields of Sooth Carolina, is capital. By furnish ing the capital tho labor is procured, aud these Vieh rice lauds are agaiu made to fproducc their valuable crops, thus rendering the State nn osscntia 1 service, which will be h.iildd ;u a gro.it boon by the entire people. lfi. No difficulty ii anticipiti d in procuring an ample supply of efficient a ad instructed labour from the negroes upon the spot. These people, warmly attached to the localities whore they were born, are peaceful, orderly, and willing to work when honestly and fair ly treated. They htvo iuvari ibly pre ferred the rice plantation on account nl the abuodau.'s of game, wild fowl, fish, oysters, &t}., to be f.>u:id there (which they have always boon permute 1 to enjoy without restriction.) Many of thorn arc mechanics, c\rp in ters, blacksmiths. Ac, of remarkable intelligence and usefulness. Since tbo emancipation differentsystems have been tried iu the employment of the freed men, but it is now generally admittod that tho most successful in attracting aud retaining labour ia that ot weekly payment of wages iu cash. It is this plan which will bo adoptol, aud by pay ing with scrupulous punctuality, the directors are assured aud boliuve that thoir supply of labour will bei ample, regular, and reliable. They pr.ipo.so howover, to introduce all labour saviug machiues which can bo usefully and profitably employed. 11. There is a contract entered into j between John Chadwick, tho o.voor of the property, on the ono pan, and J. i W. Sherman, on behalf of the company od the other part, dated 1st Oetobor, 1873, for tbo conveyance to tho compa ny of 36,t3(>G aores of freehold laud, with all improvements, catrils. banks, trunks, gates, dwelling houses, and out buildings, barus, labourers, bouses uud threshing mills; steam eugiues, elevators I and all the maohiuory thereto attao'.iel, with the goodwill of the several stores doi ig business on tho estates, upou pay tuent of the sum of ?190,000 iu cash, and ?250,000 iu fully paid-up shares. These shares to be held iu trust until each certificate holder (ia addition to dividoots on his ohuro up to 10 por oent. per annum) is paid back tbo whole amount subscribed as a, bonus, still io ta iu in;; tbe share, which will partici pate, pro rata, in all future profits of the undertaking. 12. Until the complete redemption of the bonus certificates the nett re ceipts will bo apportioned as follows: 1st. Tke payment of interest up to 10 per cent, per annum upon tho subscrib ed issue of 25,000 scares. 2nd. 90 p-ir cent. f>f the remaining surplus profits will form a sinking fuud for purposes of the redemption trust, to be called the Bonus Certificate Trust Fund! 3rd. The balance of euch surplus profits beiug 10 per cent. thereof, will be paid to the vendor utidot tho provision of deed of purchase. 13. All the expenses of the forma tion of the company up to the allotment of shares will bo borne by the ven dor. 14.

It has pleased the great Creator of the Universo to take from our midst, ono who wae reapaoled and beloved by all those whose opportunity it wae to know him. No better and n o nobler heart ever coaaed to beat; than that whioh made the bosom of our departed friend a eanctuary for tho so senti monts which lead to the cultivation of those broad nnd catholio fooliags that at one em brace the Scriptural injunction : "Love thy neighbor as thyself." F. OLDEN DORFF was born in Braun ehwoig, Germany, April let 1816. In 1849 he settled iu Orangeburg, and it is from that time up to his death that those who mourn his lots amongst us, know him best. He was Blder of tho Lutheran Church I at this piano and one of its most consistent nnd earnest members. It was his roost tamest wish to live to seo the new Lutheran Church nt this pHce finished. Alns! the hand of an All-wise Providcnee interposed, and the respected nnd loved Elder Olden dortr is now shrouded in the cold and iey drapery of denth. That voice whioh we had hoped to hear join w ith ours, in the rejoic ing which must follow the completion of the Church of the followers of the great and good Luther, is hushed forever to this world. It is only at intervale that we hear thoee death-notes pealed, which touch and awaken the chords of sorrow in the bosom of those ni'hio nations OldcndortT of Orangeburg, his death is being mourned art sadly to-day at Braumschweig Germany, as it is in his own family circle here. Both were his homos; one his native, the other his adopted. He loveil tlipm together, their people and his religion. Quiet and unassuming in mannor he did nothing to offend any one. On the contrary, the lote Mr. OldcndortT would rath er huvw suffered himself, than by any act or deed of li*?*> ?Wn to hnvt caused his fellow man io feel aggrieved. His socioty nnd his friendship were always sought aftor. Frequently have nun gathered around him to reap the benefits to be derived from bis conversational gifts. 11 y his courtesies and associations mnnj are indebted to him. He is dead und Iiis friends will now innko this acknowledgement in all sincerity. A man is never appreciated in the flesh; it is only when he it; dead that we wonder hew the blniik he has loft can be filled up. He was pre-eminently a man who nliendcd to his own business. And yet he is gone! Sorrow's purest sigh has been sent up for him, and mourners, with hends bowed low in grief nirl anjjuish, have swelled the funer al cry which witnessed the covering of the face of our departed lriend forever. Those who knew him on this earth will know him here no more, lie will never iiguin walk among us; never counsel his youthful friends and relatives more in this sublunary world of 'rouble and ingratitude. Those sober K*. sou-> of u isdum, and exper ience which he was wont to instil into the minds of (he young and thoughtless will live, but his presence will no longer blesB thei with that forte of truthfulness which his frank face never failed to inspir?. Mr. OLDEN DORFF was takon ill on Saturday iu the forenoon and died early Monday morning with that grand self-re liance in (ini which cYfr robs "death of its sting nnd the grave of its victory." He sleeps the sleep that kuo.vs no waking, and that face Wiiich wus always wreathed in smiles, now iiiou'dt i'H I ct eath the turf in the Presbyterian grave-ynrd, and all that is left to us of him is a kindly remembrance of his tunny lu.b.c virtues. < Unveil ihy bosom, faithful tomb!
