ble excitement and endangered the lives of the oc?

TOWN MONET.-For the information of parties
in ttl es ted, we state that the bills receivable of the
town of Sumter aro regarded as perfectly secure,
although not immediately convartible.
The Council are maturing plans which it is
hoped will soon restore them to currency as a cir?
culating medium. Persons holding these bills re?
ceivable are advised to preserve them-not to sub?
mit to unnecessary loss by selling them at a dis?
count.- Sumcer Watchman. c
NEW RICE.-Wo wero shown on tho street yes?
terday two or three largo heads of rice well filled,
and nearly reaiy for the sickle. We understand
they were taken from a small patch near the town.
They certainly challenge the palmiest days of the
past, and indicate that the harvest is rapidly ap?
proaching.- 6eorqetown Times.
RICE CULTUBE TN THE FTTTDBE.-It is believed
by many that tho cultivation of rice will never
again be carried to the samo extent as before the
war, on account of the labor heretofore employed
not being available. It is no doubt true that it
cannot be conducted as it has boen, but it docs
not follow that rice cannot be cultivated in as
large quantities as ever, or that the means of cul?
tivation are not within the reach of every planter.
We are satisfied that there is no necessity for tho
planter to throw out a single acre of land, for
want of labor, but that tho same quantity can be
cultivated with one sixth of the hands formerly
employed. It was thought that the former
method of cultivation was as near being perfect
as we could hope to attain ; and perhaps with the
number of hands the planter was compelled te?
nse, it was; but there not being that compulsion to
find works for BO many now, ho may by adopting a
diff?rent course grow tho same quantity, have it
better cultivated, and at less expense than before.
The writer has lately had the opinion ot somo of j
the largest agricultural machinists at the North,
to the effect that there is comparatively but little
labor performed on a rice plantation that cannot
be done by machinery, which will be simple and
cheap. They Baid it would be a very easy matter
to construct a machine for cleaning out ditches,
which could be operated by two or three hands,
witch no doubt would do the work of twenty, ac?
cording to the present mode. So, also, with re?
gard to breaking up the land, and with the plant?
ing and harvesting. A Blight alteration of ma?
chines already in usc, it was thought, would be
all that was required.** A ditching machine would
pay for itself in one season, as it could do tho wi rk
of a number of plantations.****
The writer is one who believes, despite the ef?
forts and teachings of demagogues and pseudo
philanthropists, that the negro is running a rapid
race to extermination, or at any rate his removal
from among us is but a question of time; that
another class of laborers will, to a large extent,
take his place, who cannot have the climacteric
advantages of the negro; hut by the introduction
of machinery in the cultivation of rico, this disad?
vantage may be overcome. Whojber this chango
of laborers occur or not, the above suggestion,
even in point of utility, is not unworthy of consid?
eration on the part of those concerned.

looking splendid. ,
We learn from a gentleman just returned from a

pect, both as regards corn and cotton, through tho

ABBKSTED.-James H. Jennings, alleged to be
the murderer of Marcus D. Hall, who was killed at1
Williamaton io January, 1866, was brought to the
jail of this place on the 5th inst., under charge of
Deputy Sheriff Vickers, of Greenville District. It
seems that ?T?nnings was confined in jaU at
Marion, Ala., for some offence against the laws,
and was about to be bailed from custody, when
the jailor discovered the Proclamation of Gover?
nor Orr, offering a reward for the arrest of Jen?
nings. The Governor being informed of his
whereabouts, made a requisition upon the Gover?
nor of Alabama, and sent Mr. Vickers for the
prisoner. He has been committed for trial ai tho
the October term.-Andersen Intelligencer.
THE COBEESPDNPENT of the Baltimore Sun refers
to the controversy aa to whether the recommenda?
tion of the military commission was or was not
placed before the President, and says; "Mr.
JOHNSON adheres to bis asseveration that this re?
commendation waa not among the papers present?
ed to bim by Judge HOLT on the 5th dey of July,
1865, when the Executive approval of the sentences
was written out by Judge HOLT and signed by tho
President. Mr. JOHNSON further says that tho
sheets on which the court record was written were
not fastened together when presented to him, but
the whole matter has since been made up aud
fastened together by an eyelet; and as showing
that tho recommendation for commutation meat
have been separate* and l-ppt in a different place
from the balance of tho record, inference
is mado to PITTMAN'S official account of
the trial, which has no mention of the re?
commendation of tho Court, though it purports to
gives copies of all papers connected with the case.
This publication was permitted upon the authority
of tho Secretary of War, with the injunction that
it bo prepared and issued under tho superintend?
ence of Colonel BTJBNETT, who, Judgo HOLT adds,
"will be responsible to this bureau for its strict
accuracy." In October, 1865, three months after
tho assassination trial, Colonel BDBNETT, special
judge-advocate for the commission, certifies that
"in obedience to tho directions of the Secretary of |
War, through tho Judgo Advocate General, I have
superintended the compilation and publication in
book form, 4c., &c, &c., and hereby certify to its
faithfulness and accuracy." No copy of tho paper
in question being found in tho book, Mr. JOHNSON
takes BrraNETT's certificate as corroborative of the
theory that the recommendation for commutation
was not placed with other parts cf tho record un?
til long after the trial, and consequently he could
not have bad it before him when the sentence?
were approved.
The Bloomington, Illinois Pantograph, of tho
3d says: Yesterday the workmen in tin; woal
shaft, working at the depth of one hundred and
eighteen feet, struck the remains of a tree some
six inches in diameter, and several pieces were
taken out. Dr. ROE has one piece which is about
a foot long and two inches in diameter, in a very
good state of pr?servation.? He says ho thinks it
is a species of cypress. It was firmly imbedod in
the hard pan-so much so that a pick had to be
used to get it out. and though not petrified the
wood is pretty thoroughly permeated with' tho
substance of the strata m which it had lain so
Jong. This tree, or piece of a tree, found in snch
a puce, affords pretty strong-we might almost
say indubitable-cadence that our Illinois prai?
ries are a drift formation upon the primitive rocks.
LETTER FROM THE COUNTRY.
ATHENS, GA., August 12.
Mr. Editor.-lt ia an unpleasant, and, I fear, a
thankless task, to bring the short comingB of our
railroad managers to their attention, or to that of
the public. But there are times and seasons when
this must *>o done. Thero are occasions when
one's bile rises, and it is impossible to resist the
impulse to cast it off. Bead now the following
communications from an Augusta paper, and say
if it is not enough to make a man mad who is
using every moans, by personal influence and
money, to direct cotton, and consequently trade, to
Charleston, to have the South Carolina Railroad
stigmatized as the "tortoise line," and to have it
cast in his teeth everywhere that this Company is
an old "fogy concern" and "utterly behind the
times?" It is evident something is wrong, and
plain talk may help to offect a cure. For instance,
tho world is told that there is a night train on the
South Carolina Road, taking passengers from
Charleston to Augusta; but they are not told that
this "night train" is a freight train. They are not
told that the car is a perfect disgrace to any Com?
pany, and that full fare is charged to parties who
wish to reach Augusta at tho expense of snob a
wrenching and pounding as the Spanish Inquisi?
tion never inflicted. Thoy are not told that this
wretched a flair stops four miles from Hamburg to
let the down train pass, and by this outrageous
plan passengers for the Georgia Road are
compelled to stay in Augusta a day. Shamot
shame! on such management. Will our peo?
ple, one and all, never learn that tho world
is rushing on, and that we must wake np
or be distanced in the race. Bat this is not all.
Travellers from this direction are almost all going
to New York by tho way of Atlanta, Chattanooga,
Knoxville, and to avoid the South Carolina Road
and the arrangements that now exist. This morn?
ing, going down to Lexington, there were six por
Bons who wero taking this ronto and not one going
by tho old way. It seems to mo that a hint of
those things ought to bo enough to bring about a
correction. I have heard, too, bitter complaints of
certain officers of the South Carolina Railroad,
who, it is said, with great earnestness, are moro
interested in their private affairs than in the true
interests cf the Company. This ought to bo looked
into. If tho statement is a slander it ought to be
refuted-if it is true, then the Directors should
apply the correction, and that without delay. Of
my own knowledge I can give no testimony, but
tbo stories are too common to be treated with
silence. But enough of this matter for tho present.
Georgia is a noble State, and has dono noble
thingB, not the least of which is the appropriation
of three hundred dollars to each maimed soldier
wtfo desires to procure an education. Our Stato
appropriated money for legs and arms, one-half of
whioh will be found to be useless, and tbo money
given tostho artist who made them. Hero in this
beautiful place aro gatberod nearly ono hundred
mon, maimed by loss of a log or arm, and at the
High School are receiving such an education as
their tastes and abilities warrant. Somo of these
mon could barely read when thoy came, bat they
are earnest mon, they feel their want, and they
aro determined to succeed. Some of them are ex?
cellent soholars, and I venture tho prediction that
among them will bc- found men who will hereafter
shine in the professions, and who will take high
rank among tho intellects of the age. In tho Uni?
versity here thoro are also two or throe maimed
men who stand well in their classes, and bid fair
for usefulness.
CiopB all through this section aro looking beau?
tifully, and I find a bettor feeling ns to tbr, future
among tho planters and merchants. A. B. C.
OEOBOIA VS. SOUTH CABO UNA BAILBOAD.
MK. EDITOB: An article in the Charleston Mer?
cury, of y oater day, casts undue reflections on the
Georgia Railroad and its able managers, Jadge
King and Colonel Colo. The editor complains be?
cause the mail train on tho Georgia Railroad does
not connect with a freight train on South Carolina
Railroad. Who over, in all tho annals of railroads,
heard of a through mail train on ono road chang?
ing its schedule to make connections with a
freight train on another road? The idea is
a preposterous absurdity. Colonel Cole bas dono
everything in his power, and is now moro than
willing to do anything possible to accommodate
the South Carolina Railroad and the Charleston
ians, the assertions of the Mercury to tho contrary
notwithstanding. By his skillful management and
far-seeing qualities, tho stock of the Company has
gone np from sixty-seven to ninety-one since May;
and that, too, in the summer months, which all
kuow to be tho dullest season in the year. On tho
other hand, tho officials of the South Carolina
Road, with a dogged pertinacity, have failed to
enter into proper arrangements for close connec?
tions. Witness the trains bearing tho let?
ters "W. Si M. B. B.," on the other side
of tho river. Why are those cars there?
When all the roads south of Richmond, Va.,
to New Orleans, La., adopted a schedule by which
close connection were to be roads and faster time,
tho South Carolina road persistently refused to run
tho schedule. President Drano, of the Wilming?
ton and Manchester road, proposed if tho South
Carolina road would put then? operators on at
Kingsville, he would send his trams through. This
seems strange, but it is absolutely true. For fur?
ther proof, ii any i's necessary, I refer all interest?
ed to tho following card, which appeared in a city
paper of this morning. It is presumed tho writer
tully comprehends the situation, and knows where?
of he speaks. ANOTHER MERCHANT.
Augusta, Ga., August 9, 1867.
PACT IN PHXLOSOBH?. .
Messrs. Editors : Your columns havo recently
disclosed several facts in connection with the rapid
transmission of goods from tho " Groat Central,"
via South Carolina Railroad. In one instance you
copy an article from au Atlanta paper (and the
Bailie was transferred to the Charleston Mercury),
citing a case .where goods were received at the
Gate City " on Wednesday, or to quote, " throo
days from dato of shipment." Our friends in
Atlanta may be among tho iavored, but so far as
Augusta is concerned, it works reversely. One
shipper to this point, who has faithfully tried tho
two routes (i. e. Savannah ?nd Charleston) can
testify that so far as Augusta is corni ern ed, timo
and greenbacks can be saved by shipping via
Savannah. The writer hereof has, in no instance,
received freight shipped from New York on Satur?
day before the following Thursday, Thero may
be exceptions to this experience, although the
result of a trial of four weoka leads ono to
imaeino that tho " tortoise Une " is not fully up,to
the t'mos. MERCHANT,
m??
What Ute indian? ?re Doing.
The Omaha correspondent of tho Chicago Re?
publican gives tho following sensible view of tho
present attitiuio of the Indians on tho plains :
"Gonoral Dodge, j udging from his letter regard?
ing the killing of Bio,vu, thinks that there ni no?
thing left but to turn to and thoroughly whip tho
Indians. His experience on tho frontier is great,
and his conclusions usually sound, but possibly in
this case his indignation at tho sacrifice of Brown's
life may have colorod his opinion somo what.
However that may be, there are many othor peo?
ple on tnis frontier who are reluctant to como to
that conclusion, but who say that they fear it
must como to a war. At this timo tho stato or thc
Gwo among .tho Sioux sooina to bo this : Tho
young nunn and tho young chiefs (and thoy aro
th? most influential) say that there is nothing for
them tuan but to fight until tho whites consent to
let thom alono whore they aro, and to keep out of
what they claim as their country. Tho old men
and all of the older chiefs are desirous to proveut
a war, indeed have taken, in somo cases, extreme
moauurou to keop the young mun from going out
m war parties. These old mon, in times past,
have felt and know tho powor of the Government,
and believe that in tue extiemo oase their peuple
will bo exterminated by tho whites, but tho expe?
rience of the younger onos has not taught them
this, aa since that time thoy havo almost invaria?
bly beaten the troops,
"The young mon of the Sioux aro out in small
parties, rarely numbering moro than flvo or six,
but sometimos com bining for a few days several
Barties, whose objoct seems to bo simply theil.
f course, if white mou stand in tho way of their
success in that linc, and they lind it impossible,
they will kill, but they aro not what they call
"upon tho war-path." They kill only when neces?
sary to accomplish their thefts, or when some
foolish emigrant puts his soalp within their easy
reach, when tho temptation becomes too strong,
and thoy take it, even if they get nothing else
with it,
"Many of the people who cross tho plains seem
to think that because Indians are not seen thero
are none about, and every now and then somo
man or woman on whom caution and advice aro
wasted, goes out a few miles from camp, hunting
perhaps, and presently finds moro Indians than
are beneficial to his health, and away goes his
scalp. Not improbably from thia very train, in a
few days, another one will be lost .in tho same
way, and simply bocaiiso theso people, in their
aeu-aufficieni ignorance, scorn the counsel of
men who have for years travelled tho plains and
noglect tho simplest precautions without which
an old plainsman would no sooner travel than bo
would commit suicide. A train goes into camp ;
mon, tired and, perhaps, & little lazy beside ; Ino
stock is driven out to graze, frequently a luiie or
more from tho camp, with no guard pyer it that
amounts io anything ; and in an hour a aalf-dozen
Indians, who have, probably, for days boen follow?
ing and watching, but never showing themselves,
dash out of tho bluffs, and at one swoop away goos
the herd, not even tho simple precaution takou to
hayo even hall a dozen animals secured on which
to pursue in such fiases,
"Occasionally, njen are killed at such times,
and once in a while the Indians attack a train that
ia well managed and that gives them a warm re?
ception. But, the fact is that the present condi?
tion pf things cannot bo said to bo a stato of gone
ral wai* with thom. The young men Bay they are
out for stock, and scalps are purely incidentals ;
but it is a state of affairs which a few weeks may
change into a wide-spread and determined war
with ali the northern tribe s.''
[From the New York Evening Pott, of Friday.]
air. Stanton's Suspension,
So mnch power as Congress left in hie hands, in
regard to his advisers, the President has chosen to
exercise, by suspending tho Secretary of War from
hie duties.
In his capacity of Commander-in-Chief of tho
Army, the President has commanded Gen. Grant
to act as Secretary of War ad interim, the interim
being probably from this timn to tho meeting of
Congress. .
Wnile we are sorry to seo Mr. Stanton out of tho
Cabinet, where he has long been" very usoful, wo
hold that tho chief Executive must, in tht> genoral
interest and for tho proper administration of tho
publie service, havo the control of his subordi?
nates. If ho us6B his power and place to defy or
defeat the laws, Congress can impeach and remove
him ; and if Congress does not choso to exercise
that constitutional powor, then the people at tho
next election can punish the delinquent officer by
decreeing his removal and putting a better man in
his place.
At the bottom of all discussion on this subject,
and of tho constitutional regulations upon it, lies
the belief that, no man in the Presidential chair
can ruin the country in four years; that if he plain?
ly violates the Constitution, Congress will be com?
pelled by tho people to impeach and remove him;
and that if Congress does not oct, tho peoplo have
at tho Presidential election power over the whole
mattor to decide as seems to them best. Thus
the country is made safo against usurpation or
corruption, and that without any such injurious
limitations of the Executive authority as that
which Congress, unwisely, os we think, has
enactod.
That Mr. Stautoa would ascept dismissal at tho
hands of the President we did not doubt. He has
long been anxious to retire from public service; he
has remained in tho Cabinet only because ho was
made to feel that his stay there, whilo it vexed
Soliticians of both partios, was welcomed to and
esirod by tho peoplo. He has been, no doubt, of
great use in the Cabinet, so long as the Presidont
did not fasten a quarrel upon or break with him;
but when this occurred his usefulness ceased, be?
cause he could no longer hopo to influence Mr.
Johnson for good, or exercise a restraining power
over him.
We do not doubt that Mr. Stanton saw this him?
self; and as, by the attitude of tho President, his
influence wu3 destroyed, tho order of suspension
was probably welcome to him.
We perceive that some journals try to bring
General Grant into contempt and suspicion, be?
cause he has been commanded to toko charge,
temporarily, of tho War Department. But let any
one say what Grant was to do. He is a soldier,
the highest officer of the army under tho Presi?
dent. He hos obeyed his superior's order, as he
was obligod to do. Had ho hesitated or refused he
would have set on example of insubordination, for
which he would havo desor/ed severe punishmo.it.
Ho hos not resigned bis ph ce in the army; he is
still General; he has gone to the War Depsrtmont,
as he would doubtless have gone to Texas, at the
President's order. Tho country is to be congratu?
lated that so true a man holds so important a po?
sition. The President hos, for his own purposcn,
chosen to place Grant in what some may think a
false position; but for that Grant is not to bo
blamed.
We do not crodifc tho reports that General Stceci
man is to be called to the War Department. Such
an appointment would be too scandalous; it wonld
be a flying in the face of public opinion, such OH
even Mr. Johnson would scarcely venturo upon.
General Stoodman is very well remembered as a
person who, sent by Mr. Johwon to investigate
the management of tho Freedmen's Bureau, tried
to destroy the characters of faithful and honora?
ble officers in his official reports. Thcso reports
of his-were*so falso, so devoid of truth, that oven
tho worst enemies of tho Freedmen's bureau wcro
glad to drep them; and tho officers whose fair
fame ho tried to stain cleared themselves in every
instance of the wrong imputed to them.
The action of Mr. Johnson hts left tho public
curious to know what may como next. Does he
intend to gratify the deBii-es of tho obstruction?
ists ? peoplo ask. Does he intend to remove
Sheridan, Pope and Sickles ? It is not likely. He
could havo removed them without removing Mr.
Stanton. Tho President, in such a matter, is
not subject to tho authority or interference of tho
Secretary. But it is scarcely worth whilo to spec?
ulate about Mr. Johnson's intentions. Ho has
shown himself, so often, tricky, and given to un?
derhand, inconsequent, and what may fairly be
called mean actions, that it is not useful to specu?
late about what he may do hereafter; nor do wc
think it very important. Ho will probably delay,
as mnch as lie can, tho work of reconstruction,
and thus koop the country in a turmoil. But that
work has now gone so far that it can scarcely be
much delayed by the President.
If secessionist politicians are wiso at all, they
must see that they havo little to hopo from tho
helo'of a President who has a very large majority
against him in Congress, and whom uvon the
minority does not trust or respect. Mr. Johnson
hos so managed utlairs that he has lost tho con?
fidence and respect of Demoorabr as well as Re?
publicans in tho Northern States; and his chief
advisers and friends now are of tho class ol old
pro-slavery politicians of the South, of whom hu
said during the war, that thc country could never
have peace until they woro put aside and new men
brought forward in their places.
FBOMJ. THE SOUTHAMPTON (July 2?>) Corrospon
denco of the London Star, wo learn that tho Ameri?
can life-raft Nonpareil, forty throe days from Now
York, arrived boro between flvo and six o'clock
this evening, and ia moored off the dock shore.
This daring adventure- has been conducted by
JOHN MIKES, Captain, and a crow of two, named
QEOBOE MILLER and J mut Y MALLENE. Sho is only
twenty-four feet long, and twelve and a half foot
broad. Tho raft which has two masts, consists
of three ey lindore, pointed at each ond, united to?
gether by canvass connections, having no real
deck, and is strengthened by boards slipped un?
der strong iron nock-piocos, tho-whole kopt
togothor by lashing. A water proof cloth, hung
over a boom, closed at each end, somewhat re?
sembling a gypsy tent, affords sleeping accommo?
dations, two at a tune, and the third keeping
watch. This is fixed on a strong locker, in which
the provisions aro kopt. The raft lay-to seven
times from stress of weather, and the last vessel
apoken was the John Chapman, a week since,
(rom which they wero givon t\ fowl, which is still
alive and well. They'havo arrived -with thirty
gallons of water to sparo. The Captain was poorly
two days di iring tho passage, o thor wi ac all havo
been in perfect hoalth, and the men arc in good
spirits, tl.(.tr eounteuanoeu looking healthy and
bronzed by thc weather. They had no chronome?
ter on board, and sailed by doad reckoning, and
corrected their position by vessols they spoke.
There is a smaller raft on dook for uso os a boat.
Tho raft has kept perfectly water-tight all
the way, not a leak of any [sort having oc?
curred,
Avery sharp controversy is going on among
temperance men in Now York State and othors re?
garding hop growing, flops, it is argued, aro
made into boor, whioh is intoxicating, consequent?
ly hop-growors "oro identified with tho cause of
intemperance, and workers together with Satan in
destroying their fellow men." It is immoral to
raise hops, so it is to iaiso apples, corn, rye,
grapes, carrots, beets, potatoes, ?tc., for of those
severally intoxicating liquor can bo distilled.
