The use of steel, instead of iron, for the raih
on railroads, has not been productive of the saviu|
which was at first expectea. The surface of the
6teel rail is indeed harder, and therefore wean
better than iron; hot steel 1ms not the tough, fib
rous character of iron, and, in frosty weather, il
breaks with alarming ease. Theo, although tl*

I COTTON CULTURE.
There seems to be, throughout the cotton-grow
? nn tlio noi-t nP intalli.
!U? OU cai UCJW guuiv UII vuv J/Ui V w?
i gent farmers, to improve the method of cotton
, culture, in such a way as to compensate for the
disasters entailed upon cotton growing by the re;
suits of the war. The results of many experii
ments in this way would prove highly interesting
j. to our farmers.
One of the latest improvements in culture, and
] one at present attracting considerable attention, is
f that suggested by Poulain, of Maryland. His
plan is to plant the seeds in hot beds in February,
? or early in March, and thus mature the plants for
r transplanting in April or May. As the cotton plant
is a tender growth, difficult to transplant in the
j usual way, he proposes to obviate this difficulty by
. using earthen pots open at each end, of a conical
? shape. The pot is filled with earth and six or
} eight seeds placed in it, the proper depth. These
) pots are arranged in the hot house ou planks, and
? the plants thinned out to the proper number when
1 large enough. When the period for transplanting
arrives, the ptonts are removed to tne neici with
) the pots upon them, then carefully set into the
i hills, the eartlr dosedaronnd the bill, and the pot
t removed. A plant* eight or ten inches high, is
1 thus started in the field at the usual period of
planting the seeds. Thr cotacal shape of the pot
' admits its removal from tip plant without disturb.
ing the earth or the roots of the cotton.-,- ..1
Foulain also proposes fco.phpe .(he plants, thus
generated, in hills from'' Fyur {plight feet apart
each way, the hills having first "beep deeply dug,
> and well manured. It is asserted that experiments

> compensating for the labor employed.
Agentferaan in Edgefield, in this State, raised
3 last yetTj&teen hmdred pounds of lint cotton to
' one acre-pf hind, under a process somewhat simi|
lar. He -planto4:two 8talks to the hill, at a disI
tance ofAjpif feet each. way. The hills were prei
paw4as,if for transplanting fruit trees, being dug
down^Q a depth nf twenty inches and two feet di-:
i ameter. , Sandy loam and manure was then filled!
5 in, and the seeds planted. The enormous yiekl is
' attributable to the thorough subrsoiliog, the nian'
ure and the space?the latter being sufficient to
j allow the rays of the sun to penetrate to the lower
) branches of thp plant and afevelop these fully,
i As cotton is essentially a sun plant, never thriving

on the 5th instant. In view of the short session
which is before it?a little less than two months,
and on the eve of a new administration?it isi
doubtful whether any new or very important mcasures
will be undertaken, but attention will be con-1
fined to the consummation of what has been initiated.
Reconstruction being, in a measure, disposed
of, the finances will probably engross a large share
of attention. An examination of the work done
the short time the houses were in session in December,
shows the passage by both Rouses of but
two bills of general importance?that relating to
the militia in the Southern States, and that extending
the time for affixing tobacco stamps. The
other bills were either for removal of disabilities,
or were otherwise local in their character.
On the 5th, in the House, Butler introduced a
bill providing for the transit of citizens through
the States.. It forbids the arrest of persons passing
through States of which he is not a citizen, unless
he tarries over forty-eight hours, on any civil process,
and provides penalties for serving-such writs
on passing citizens. It will be remembered that
Butler was arrested at the close of the last session,
while passing through Baltimore, at the instance
of several persons who represented that they had
been defrauded by him. Butler's object is, doubtless,
in introducing the bill, to protect himself
from a similar annoyance in the future.
In the Senate, Stewart introduced a bill for the
purpose of reconstructing Georgia. It rescinds
the reconstruction act of July 25, 1S68, so far as
it applies to Georgia, but retains all the officers of
the State and members of the Legislature, except
those disqualified by the Fourteenth Amendment.
It provides for the re-asscmbling of the Convention
in March to amend the constitution, whieh shall
be submitted to the people and then to Congress.
Meantime, the Georgia Government shall be pro
visional. 1 be bill was reierrea to we comnmiee
od the Judiciary.
The bill, passed just previous to the holiday recess,
authorizing the re-organization of tho militia
in North and South Carolina, Florida, Alabama
and Mississippi, was signed by Wade, the
President of the Senate, and Colfax, the Speaker
of the House, and sent to the President. It is
presumed that the latter will veto it upon the
ground that Congress has no power over the militia
in tfie States ip time of peace. ''
A motion to refer the President's amnesty proclamation
to the Judiciary Committee, with instructions
to report regarding its legality, provoked an
argument, in whioh Ferry, Howard, Frelinghuysen
and Conkling spoke adversely to the President's
powers.
On the 6th, in the Senate, a bill was introduced
forbidding the holding of two offices at the same
time?civil and military?under the government.
The object of this is probably to prevent General
Gram ffona appointing an officer of the Navy as
Secretary of the Navy, and an officer of the army
as Secretary of War, and permit them to receive
a salaiy for each position. The bill was introduced
by WiLon, of Massachusetts, who,it is uodfiwtood,
wishes to be Secretary of War himself It w believed

Union County Items. ,
From the Unionville Times, of Thursday
last, we clip the following items in regard to jthingsl
id that, uounty: .
"The County of Union hag been divided off into
ten townships, to be designated as follows: Union
Court House, Jonesville, Draytonville, Goudcys ille,
Pinckney, Santa^ SimsviHe, Goshen HiH,
Cross Keys find Pogfmsville. ' s
June Mobley, a mulatto, has been appointed a
Magistrate by Governor Scott. We have not;
learned who has been appointed the Clerk to do
his writing. June Mobley is a member of the
Legislature. We suppose this may be taken as an
indication, that, in the opinion of Governor Scott,!
Jane will not be engaged in Columbia for any
length of time, during/the ensuing year.
Judge Monro, who formerly resided at Anderson
C. H., has removed to Uoionville, and resumed
the practice of law in connection with his son.

The Charleston Election Case.
Upon footing-op the retards of the election
held in Charleston, in November last, for Mayor
and Aldermen of that city, it was foand that the
Republican candidates bad received a small majority
of the votes cast The Conservatives, not
being satisfied with the result, entered a protest
against the validity of the election, charging fraud
and intimidation of voters. The acting City Coum
cil being the proper tribunal to decide the matter,
after investigation, declared the election ' null and
void, and the thing a "dog-foil"?neither party
elected." The Republicans, in turn, were dissatisfied,
and claiming that it was the daty of the City
Council to declare the .election, sued out a writ of
maiulamu* to bring' about that result. The case
has just been befofo 'the Supreme Court, and the
opinion is given that it was "the duty of the City
Council to have declared the result of the election,
and that the announcement of a judgment that the
election was null and void, was not such a declaration
as was intended by the Legislature, and was,
moreover, beyond the power granted to the Acting
Board of Aldermen, by the act regulating the
election.',' In commenting on the effect of the
decision, the Charlestou Xcict savs:
1 "The effect of this decision will be to compel the
Acting Board of Aldermen to declare who was
elected Mayor and Aldermen of Charleston at the
late election, as shown by the examination of the
l - IM .1 i J 1- - I 4 .i
returns wnicn rney naa iuuuc, uui uuicss uu; ruling
Board of Aldermen voluntarily vacate their
places, the persons declared elected will be left to
their remedies at law. In plain Knglish, if Mr.
Clark and the present Aldermen choose to oppose
Mr. Piltsbnry and his Aldermen, the latter cannot
get into, power without further resort to the courts,
which may occasion months, or even years, of delay."
Effect of the Amnesty Proclamation.'
The Washington correspondent of the Baltimore
Sun writes as follows to thatjournal, with
reference to the Amnesty Proclamation of President
Johnson, issued on Christmas day:
The effect-of the President's Amnesty Proclamation
is yet the subject of argument and doubt
among Congressmen and otners, and it is asked,
"Does the proclamation remit or cancel all penalties,
and relieve against all disabilities?"
Among competent judges there does not appear
to be any doubt that it can be pleaded in bar to
pending criminal prosecutions, and that it is within
the power and province of the Executive to pardon,
whether before or after a judicial conviction
bot dues the proclamation relieve as to the disabilities
described in the new Amendment to theConietrtution?ithft
Fourteenth ?

Under the Seomffl Article, the Executive can by

some officials, legal men and Congressmen, and
there is so much jonfliet of omirioo ott this important

Last week, a paragraph informed oar readers
of General Grant's, dodge to evade calling on
President Johnson, on New Year's day- Befierenoewtenbo
made to the eastern on "inaaguration-day,"
of the old President attending the pew
one to the Capitol, and that it might not be agreeable
for the latter to even obeerve this custom. A
correspondent of a Baltimore paper referring to
the matter, gives as an: inkling of^Gen. Great's
purposes on the expected occasion :
"I apprehend no difficulty on this score. Mr.
Johnson wjll scarcely, after what, hasj>ccarred,
commence ^negotiations, upon thijj delicate and
grave poing Mr. Adatfls pat on a stiff upper lip
ori fbe 4th of March ,1829V and did ndfc attend (rior
did he offer to attend^ the ceremonies of Jacket's
inauguration*. Doubtless there Iwve-' been other
parallel cases in ourhistory, But besides ah this,
I learn that Gen. Grant has intimated laconically
io his Man Friday that he desires to.hrak up,gnd
forever destroy the Plebeian custom of btnyww
inaugurations and elaborate' "Inaugural8.'"' He
will, therefore,' be swore in, together with the
Vice-President, in the 8enatt Chamber, without
any parede. President Johnson'* presence ma
therefore he very well dispensed j^ite..,.A.pr?nc?pv
reason for this change of taste is that the com
mg man is "no orator, as cruras u. nis speecn,
pre fa ton- to kissing the calf-skin, it Is thought,
will be exceedingly brief, not digger than a piece
of chalk, of sufficient dimensions, howaver, for
marking down oertain important and profounipolititical
. maxims, such as ;%et ua .have peapel"
"111 fight it out on this line if it tales me all summer
!'' "Omgfess Itldws"more about theNe matters
than I do* myself! " * "I have not jnren them
a thought" "I have seen the horse Dexter frequently.
and think the likeness perfect^'/, It
would be.manifestly outside, the. pale of decorum
to assemble hundreds of thousands of eager spectators
in front of the eastern portfcci of the Capitol,
and dismiss them thds dbrbpfhv.' The inside
track is, therefore, indispensable,where the President
elect may, as BucoincUy aa-he chooeea, announco
his,line of march, and leave elacidatjoo and

Gen. Grant's Opinions.
? Ever since the election of Gen. Grepttb.-jhe
Presidency,the quid nuncs have been busy,in chalking
put the policy he would pursue upon assuming
the reins of government Gen. Giant- has generally
maintained b? habitual. reticence, and nothing
has been elicited fVom him that can be. regarded
as "by authority." There seems jt^ .b* no
doubt, however, but that Mr. Elihn B. Wash.borne,
a member of Congress from Illinois, is a confidant
of Gen. Grant, and is more likely to. be authorized
to speak for the President elect than any other
man. On Wednesday of last week, Washbume
addressed the House, of Representatives, and from
the relations supposed to exist, his speech received
marked attention. With reference to the matter,
the Washington correspondent of the Baltimore
Gazette says: ...
' There was great interest manifested to-^ay, by
all parties in the House of Representatives to hear
the Hon. Elihp B. Washborne, as it was general1?
vwAnU ' ofwuilr ktr Atifltnnnin
IV UlAICI OIUVU lllAb UC ttvuiu uj UUHIVI IIJ
from General Grant; and the fact that he read
from printed slips, pasted on sheets of foolscap,
gave currency to the rumor. Mr. Washburne baa
never before been known to prepare a speech in
advance* and rarely uses notes when addressing the
House. TKespeech delivered to day is said to
have been submitted to and approved by the President
elect as an authoritative foreshadowing of
what his policy would be. Just prior to Mr.
Washburoe's rising to address the House, Attorney-General
Evarts entered the Representative
Hall and held a short conference with nnu, which;
from the bobbing of heads that followed, seemed
to be mutually satisfactory. The Republican members
were very quicklygathered around Mr. Wash'
burne's seat, while the Democrats sat in silent,
but attentive isolation on the opposite srde.of'the
hall. The first proposition commenced Wasthit
'a new depart ure had to be taken by the Radicals?^
the whole policy of the party had to be changed:1
This announcement caused an extraordinary opens
ing of eyes and pricking an of ears. SchencVre*
marked to his colleague, Garfield, 'that, indeed,
sounds as if speaking by authority.' After depicting
the demoralizing effects of a bloated paper
I currency, Mr. Washburne ventured his second
proposition, viz: the plundering of the publie
I * ?.UUAM., WMVvm MI /lAnHwnfo on/9 flid
treasury vy ruuuuio CIILH^U ivi wuuovio nuu iuv
squandering of the public. lands would have to
cease. 'Good I' exclaimed jlr. Brooks, ef New
York, and several other Democrats. Mr. Washburne
continued, and with his voice at it* highest
pitch, announced that 'Representatives must understand
that they arelwt the servants of the people
they represent, and are not to legislate for the
benefit of themselves and the gamblers which
crowd Washington.' This is, inaeed, plain talk,
coming, as it does, from the President elect,-whq
evidently intends that Congress shall understand;
from the very jump, that it is bat a co-ordinate
branch of the government, and mast * keep within
its proper constational limit*.-"

Two or three little negro boys, about'the tome ago,
werewith him. They, in play, had Scratched out
a hole about three feet deep in a pile of sbsd cotton.
After playing about this fer some time, he
remarked that he was cold, and that he wonld go

engaged, did not notice him.; The little negroes,
perceiving that he remained there a tong

feet sticking out. The little negroes, in sport, may
have crowded the cotton around him; or they
may have not It was evident, from signs, that
he straggled, and that life was suddenly checked.
No one is blamed in the affair. The calamity
seemed unavoidable. No person would have

playing in cotton. This is a plain statement of'tliO
