Judge '0Aldhoh's Charge to the Grand Juy of Riohlaid. We republish so much of Judge Aldrichs charge to the Grand Jury of Richland District a's relates to the du fy of eylored people, to their true frIds and to vo-rancy. P will ).e :.. .t isf,etion to the colored people of this,4 plaeo to know thy have ant icipat,ed1 le good advice of the Judge in reprd to "standing up for the i'lpr'ovement- ad 'respectalfili ty of their race, and'liri'iging all rio lators of law to jistice." Can a Northern Man-live in the gouth ?? The question and the answer to it, lloth'of which will be found below, de velop the fact' that pur-blind editors r. the North still think it dangerous for a man from the North to take up his abode among'the barbariansof the South. ,We admire the spirit and justice of the Aew Haven register in its reply to the Iartford Courant, and will add to its testimony, living as we do right in this beniglted land, and as an appen dix to our addendp, wish that the Rrg ister may have many more subscribers in the South, be they "properly be haved" Northern men or .Southern men. If our testimony can add anything to that of the Reyister, we will . say that we of the South want Northern mea to come down here, bring their moiey, go intobusiness, and help As bu'ld up thie broken fortunes cf the Sooth, here these have taken the management fi their own hands, they are bound to fail, because they "know nothing of the difficulties of cotton eniture. Lot those sanie n'en of capi tal from the North come down here, bring their money and "go in" with honest, jndustrious (and we have plen ty of these) men in the South, in the cultivation of cotton, and , they will not only be kindly received but wel ,comed. "There islife in the old land yet,"l if there were capital to resusci tate it. Intermeddlers and cut throats we do not want, but men of character and business will be wel comed. "Does the R-ister contend that an Illinoisan has u right to take up his residence in the South and advocate principles of liberty and equality ?" [ Hartford Courant. Certainly not. Anybody has ii . right to take up his residence where le p leases, if hie behaves himself pro perjy : but "J.udge ~Warmouth" has no right to travel tJhroq1gh the North representing himself as a Southern -man--when all he knows of. th'e South ern people is derived from a war resi dence in New Orleans of a few ufonths --who has nao idea of returning among them--and who is spendig hi s breath in traducing them, and slandering the President. This is wihat no "Illinois an" .a a right to do, and what' no. honest man will attempt doing. The *stuff about his beinig "dIriven to the North for safety," is falselifhod entire-. ly, unless lie is a-fugitive from just ice! * T here are hundreds of men from New Hiaven County do(ing~ business in Sounthern ci-a-rom of whAm we have seen the p:ut smiomer-and all bear testimpny to t he fact that they a,re au kindly t reated as it at home. We have Yankee-born subscribdrs in every SotenState-1nd in nearly ,pointedly rebuked. It is the enemiies of reconciliation who are sowing these * tares.--N'ew Hauveni?Register.

LIQa TH NMwa.J Improvement of Lands-Economy. The subjects which, Dox6 to the la bor question, deniands attention is th improvement of lands for agriculture. It is trite that much of the land, that once contributed largely to the Wealth of the country by its productions, is entircly exhausted. This, time alone will redeeni,:to atipt its iiiimedi ate improvemtent wero worse than useless : it is to lands that havq nev. er bben so completely robbed of their fertility but y.et possess much of productiveness, and to those that.have never been subj9eted to cultivation, that the hand.of improvement should be directed.. It is the part-of writers for agricul tural-papers to presont to the 'public the methods of procuring and econo imizing theobet fertilizers, and of tip. plying them to the various soils at the proper season, stage of the crops, &c. This-left to them, it may yet be pro per, in connection with the subject be. fore us, to recommend the saving of all such substances as contribute to fertility, sut as all the parts of dead animals, ashes, soap-suds and urine. Every farmer should have compost 'heaps or at least dung-hills, whore all stich thingssshould be deposited. If straw, leaves, or sdmne such material were mixed with stablo manure or even earth, and*such as I have mon tioned dbove carefully collected and thrown into the mass, a greataddition might thus be made to the.amount of valuable fertilizers. I know that suah things have boon laughed at, but we have laughed a't them to our cost. It is time to turn a now. leaf.- If by means of manures and those that may be obtained in the market, the better lands, could be brought to double their'fortility, and twelve acres were cultivated instead' of ,sixteen, this twelve, three-fourths of the" 'ormer amount, would produce 50 per cont more than the whole. I beliove in practice the former amount .would be doubled,for one-fourth of the lands formerly 'cultivated produced almost nothing, and besides, the labor that t4e whole received could now be be stowed on three-fourths. -Many men aro havd to conivince that it is a ruinous.practice'to apply their fertilizers to the poorest lands,yet such is the fayt, and much value has boon thrown away in this manner. Lot any-who dotibt it make once a fair and thorough experimeni. If in addition to the improvement of lands every non-producer that is able, would become a producer, muh would be added to the gross .prdducts of the country In' its time of .need. Boside th gain from increased pro duction, as much real advantage might recsumlt from economical consumption. The whole gain of slavery in this sec tion, lay in the nd(le of profi,ahle consumption which it furnished. To balance aney' want of profita ble -con sumption formerly available, it is no cessary now to cut off all the unprofit ble. Every llorse fed, ,but niot pro fitably employed, adds yearly $75.00 to unprofitable ednsumption, every dog 5.00 ;and ether luxuries together as much as both of these. Another it'em of unprofitable expense in the way of labor and -material would be obviated by rejecting wormi out lands and aultivating less, for much less fencing Wyould then be necessary. The proposition brought up in the Legisla ture "to keep stock inclheod" m-ight if carried irrto effeet be useful in thmis way, b'y enatbling farmers to cuiltIvate good spots of ground wherever found witliout the expense of isoloinmg them .itersearately or -together with large 4racts uinfifor oultivatlon. Aimy legislation tendinug, directly Qr indi. reetly, to. encourage a the Iadustrial *elases- by promoting;e economy or obecking luxury; should not only at the. present, but M4 all times, **ceive dieo coi-dial support~ of all thmAking men who desire the pros perity of the masses, wbiol is th,e prosperity of the countri; and that, encouraging ar%d protecting labor*and capital alike, not fostering one to, t6e detriment'of the other, would receive the suppor of.all patriotic mon. . ivEs. Ex-governor Letoher on Southern Affairs. A Plea for Peace. lixkovernor Letcher, of Virginia, deliv od an- address at Lexington, Va:, oif the occasion of the -reiuaugu rabion of the statue of %% ashington, at. the Virginia Military Institute, in the. course of which. he said : Tle Southern people regard the question at issue as settled :and . for ever settled. They accept the result, and arei prepared to abide by it in good faith. They pledge an honor that is untarnished, and . whe brave and honest men give such a ple ,who can doubt their sincerity, and who can hesitato to Dclievo that their pledge will be redeemed to the letter? No .government can endure which does not rest upon the affections of it, people. A wise, just, tolerant, up right adininist%tion of public affairs will win back the affections of the South and entwine them around the pillars that upheld the Union as the "clasping ivy"' no'ireles the majestic oak. Kidness begeta kindness; con fidence. inspres bonfidenoe ; obarity aid toleraqce generates love and af fection. Lot all those ennobling vir tues be cultivated and encouraged. If the scones of the last four years can not be forgotten "by ei\heT side, lt them.be at least forgiven and passed by in solemn, dignified sil6nce. Let each side cease to remind the other of the disagreeable incidents that .>Ccitrr e.d during that-sad lut. eventful pe riod. Let us, then, be of good cheer.- Let no one be disheartened -or discourag ed. We must all do our duty in a faithful, independent and manly way, and then we may reasonably antici pate abright and happy future for ourselves, our -posterity and our coun try. It should be the poley of all to in culcate a spirit of.concord, and so act each to the other as tq advance the common interest of all. We should do overything in our power to secure the prosperity of the. nation, augment its'woalth, develop its boundless min erql and other resources, arouse up it4 dormant energies, multiply its chan n9ls of intercommunication, encour age agricultural, mechanical and manufacturing industry. This is due to ourselves as well as those who are coie after u,'apd who look to us for the adoption of a policy that will place them before the world Th the most ad vantageous josition. Let us deal can didly,; fairly, - honestly,. justly *and charItably one with another, and then, kneeling around the altar of a com mon country, let a united rayer as-. cend to IIeaven "God bless oierica." IXTRRRSTINo FROM NNw ORI.NANs.-Re. cent dispatuhes from New Orleans say that two negro soldiers,' who fir6d their revolvers at the police a few days ago and were ar rested, have been turned-over to the civil authorities for trial. The department eoni. mander, on his endorsentint, tells the Re corder to try them, and If found guilty to punish them. This is a precedent that will no doubt be followed 1s future.
