Both cables were reported to ba working satisfactorily. -In Mississippi Governor Humphreys has issued a proclamation stating thai he has receiv such information respecting projected out breakaamong tue negroes, that ho finds it neces? sary to waru "all combinations for such a purpose that their intentions are known and they cannot succeed, and that if the black race behoves thc lands will bo distributed among them they aro greatly deceived." -a he Anti-Slivery Standard, in a letter from Washington, has ? curious revelation of the feel? ings, plans and purposes of the Radical party It sa? a they have been holding conferences to effect au organization of their own, apart from that of the Republican Party, and that they intend to renew the project of impeachment as a ques? tion ot privilege, ou which they have a right to be heard. It is refreshing to hoar them complain? ing of "the tyranny of the majority in shutting 0* | debate." -There is some trouble browing again on tho Bio Grande frontier. It appears that two Ameri? can citizens were recently forced into the Mexican army at Mats moras, under the late decree of Juarez proclaiming th.t every citizen owod the Bepublio any sort of service ho might see fit to designate. General McKenzie, commanding ac Brownsville, had brought the subject to the notice of Colonel Palacios, commanding tho Mexican forces at Matamoras, arid has received tho reply that the latter would take it into consideration. -Twenty-seven years ago Edward Oxford, a silly pot-boy, fired a pistol at Quoon Victoria, was tried, acqLitted on tho ground of insanity, and confined m a criminal lunatic asylum. The penalty of high treason was at that time hanging, drawing and quartering, the bill providing corporal punish? ment lor any who assaulted the sovereign having not been passed. In the asylum Oxford was quiet and well behaved ; but evidently not mad. His own statement was that the pistol contained no 'jail, and that ho only sought notoriety. Tho foolish fellow, after passing tho best years of his lifo in confinement, is now released and sent out of England, but how ho will make his living, unless he is pensioned, is unknown. -England has boen looking with wonder, min? gled with amusement, at the progress of a quarrel between parties near Sunderland, involving the ownership of a thip. A man ordered a vessel of a builder, and had paid instalments of the price amounting in all to nearly ?1000. A dispute aros, about the remaining payments. Tho ship was nearly finished. Mr. Nichols, the builder, hired a party of shipwrights to do what remained to bo doue in the night, and to hunch the ship. The next morning Mr. Rogerson, tho purchaser, got his workmen together, with somo volunteers, row? ed out to the ship, and after a hard fight succeed? ed Jn Lhrewmg Mr. Nichols' crew into the river. T?o ship waa towed to the quay of Mr. Rogerson': yard, and there scuttled and sunk for greater security. A few days afterward Mr. Nichols in? vaded tho yard with a small army of workmen, drove eff the Rcgeraonians, raised* pumped out, and repaired the ship, and took it down tho Wear to Sunderland. The police enjoyed the spectacle of these battles, but did not interfere. The ques? tion gees to tho courts. -A letter written on board tno United States steamer Wachusett, at Pootoo, tn ielaud at the month or the Yangtso river, says the island is con? sidered holy ground by the Chines?, who visit it annually during tho months of January and Feb? ruary, to the number of ten or fifteen thousand. They worship Buddha and the western Heavens and a largo amount of money has been laid out on buddings for the idols and the numeious priests. The grounds sro bean?fully cultivated and ah the avenues of approach to the temples are lined with shnde trees. The chief idol in the main templo is sotae thirty feet high, and at least ' ' ten in breadth; it is in a sitting posture, with limbs crossed something after the manner of thc 11 Turks. Tbe idols aro composed of plaster or BOUIPUI?IU? of that nature, and atv all heavily gilded. Ooo of tho Urah ii i ai priests who died re? cently had held hia rijrht ann up for thirty years, and had let bia finger nails grow until they had penetrated the flesh. Usually ihcro aro about 300 priests on tho island, but at tho time of tho annual worship they number as high as 5000. -It would bo queer enough if, instead of cot? ton, guano should bc king. At all events, tho Charleston pap?is speak in glowing terms of the enormous supply of a fertilizing material discover? ed iu South Carolina. As to quality, it ' contains from sixty to seventy-five per cent, of pure phos? phate," and is "more valuable than tho Peru? vian guano," v. Inch brings ninety dollars the ton. As to quantity, thc deposits "extend for niil.s"' along the Ashley Hiver, "cover many square miles." and may, "produeo $10,000,000." As to accessi? bility, ono bed, at least, is ou?y a few milos from Charleston, and will give to that city, says one paper, "a largo exporting trade, and create a busiuess tliBt will speedily restore her former prestige" Tho King is dead-long live the King ! No soouor is poor King Cotton dethroned than liing Guano reigns in his stead. Instead of cot? ton lords we shall probably bavo a guano aristoc? racy that will probably outvie w.iat is called the '.codfish aristocracy" of some Eastern States. CHARLESTON. FRIDAY MORNING, DECEMBER 20, 1SG7. Tlie Futmc of Cotton. We have published several articles of late on the culture of cotton and its present cost to the producer. The subject is one of para? mount interest to almost every man in thc Southern States, for the cotton orop heretofore has certainly been the main source of our prosperity. True, Congress intends to effect a change, and by taxing our staple heavily, and thereby stimulating foreign rivalry, compel our planters to abandon their traditionary staple, and devote themselves to thc produc? tion of cereals, stock, hemp, flax, hops, fruit, etc. Still tho hold cottou has upon our agri? cultures is strong, and they are slow to change their allegiance to the fleecy king. And in this they ore unquestionably right. The experience of a lifetime, nay of genera? tions, should not be rashly thrown aside. It is proper that they should carefully count the cost before giviog up the culture of cotton, in favor of such other products, as could take its place. And it is for the purpose of assist? ing them in these comparativo estimates that we have devoted timo and trouble to the prepa? ration of a series of anieles on this subject. We will to-day examine an estimate mude a few weeks ago by Mr. W. H. YOC.NO, of Colum? bus, Ga., an experienced merchant, manufac? turer and planter. He says that five hundred pounds to the ucre of seed cotton (ibo average yield) costs thc planter nearly seventeen cents a pound to produce, clear of thc tax-the wages alone of the labor being fully one-half thc whole cost of the expense of the plantation. He there? fore strenuously urges a reduction of the area planted, believing that ihe same force can produce more largely on a lew acres, well manured, and thoroughly cultivated, than by the old system. In all business the cost of labor is thc prin? cipal outlay. A manufacturer is offered a ma? chine for $500 that will produce a certain amount of work, requiring the personal atten? tion of two men. To the two men he pays $150 each per annum, or $300, the amount of outlay for labor to "run the machine." A new machine is offered him that will produce the same amount of work, but from its im? proved construction one operativo only is required to attend it, reducing the annual cost $150; and although he has to pay for the im? proved machine $1000, he abandons thc old one and buys a new one, because it is clearly to his interest to do JO. N W our labor is costly, and however reduced in price hereaf? ter, it must still remain the great item of ex? pense in operating the plantation. Suppose a plartir has three hundred acres ?f land to cultivate, the land capable of pro? ducing five hundred pounds of seed cotton and ten bushels of corn to the acre (average). It requires eighteen hands and nine mules, say about sixteen acres to the hand, and thirty three and a third acres to thc mule, cultiva? ting ten acres in cotton and six in corn. The result is that on the one hundred and eighty acres in cotton he gets 90,000 pounds of seed colton, or 27,000 pounds of lint If sold at 12J.$3375.00 120 acres in corn, 1200 bushels at $1.1^00.00 Gross produce of ci op.$4575.00 By a previous calculation Mr. YOUNO had shown that the 009tper laborer of operating an extensive plantation was $298, or for eighteen hands, $5364-a loss, therefore, on the opera? tion of $789. Mr. YOBBO therefore proposes that the plan? ter only cultivate one hundred acres of the land, and enrich it so as to produce fifteen hundred pounds of seed cotton and thirty bushels of corn per acre, and to do so he expends for gu? ano, etc., $1900, or four hundred pounds to the acre; and if he can in this wuy produce as much on the one hundred acres us he did on the three hundred, we shall have the follow? ing result: Cotton and corn, as above. $4575.00 For hire of six hands and all ex? penses at $254 each. $1524.00 Corn for six hands 85 bushels; for three mules 180 bushels-265 bushels at $1. 2G5.00 Cost or four hundred pounds gu? ano per acre (ono hundred acreej, 20 tons at $95. 1900.00-$3089.00 Loss in the former case $791, profit iu the latter $886; difference $1077. Without going further into details, we give the result of Mr. YOUNG'S calculations, and commend them to public attention. No esti? mate of this kind, wc are aware, will bo ac? cepted as accurate by all persons, and we shall therefore bo glad to hear on this subject from any experienced and practical planter. Too Moen Government. Thc Hon. GEORGE H. PENDLETON, in a bril liant speech, delivered at Milwaukee a lew weeks ago, fearlessly laid bare the root of tho evils of this over-governed country; and while uppealiug to sound senso and sober feel ing, proved to his hearers by thc logic of facta that the source of our troubles is "excessive administration," and that our present dictrac ted and oppressed condition has grown cut of the "fraud, corruption and mal-administration" of the party now in power. If the taxation of thc United Slates for the year 1866 were distributed equally it would amount to the sum of $11.46 in gold on everv man, woman and child in the country; or it would amount to no less than $3.00 upon every $100 of real and personal property in thc United States. The liquidated debt alone is equivalent to $74 per head, against $S7 in France and 31- in lrec and progressive Prus? sia. And the immense debt which this repre? sents has been heaped up by robbery, by cheating, by open frauds upon the government. Mr. PENDLETON argues that the ten-forty bonds alone arc payable, interest and princi? pal, in gold, and derides that cry of "repudia? tion" which comes with excellent grace from those who have compelled thc voiking man to take payment in "legal tenders,-' and who have authorized every man who had agreed to pay a hundred dollars in gold to discharge the debt by paying a hundred dollars in paper. He is in favor of paying off the whole bonded debt in "legal tenders" except those bonds expressly declared to be payable in gold, but would only do so as fur us might be done with? out inflating the currency b?yond a safe and just point,-the proposition being that the whole debt can be paid in greenbacks in twelve or fourteen years without thc addition of one dollar to the taxation or circulating medium. Ihen let the expenses of the government, exclusive of interest, be reduced to $l?0.000, XK); and, with thc present income, the prin? cipal and interest of the public debt can be paid off in five years. Mr. PENDLETON is eloquent as well ns prac- | tioal, and thc two following cx'racts will pire an idea of bis views upon thc situntion o afiairs iu tho South, uud thc means of saving tbe whole country : Military covcrnmcnt and tho Freedmen's Bu? reau have beeu established all over the youth. They cost tho poop:e of ti e conn Irv. by appro? priations and in other ways. $20t).?JO,??0. And what havo they dono? Thcv have subverted civil gorcrnments ia ten ?tates in the Union. They hold tho lifo, and liberty, and property of those States in the mailed hand of military power. They have subverted the social system; they havo su.ivertcd the labor systom; they have de? stroyed thc supply of labor; they have" turned the eight hundred thousand blacks "from tho pursuit of agriculture and industry lo the pursuit of poli? tics; they have turned gardens into deserts; they have, br unjust -md arbitrary acts, and by Bl ill worse threats, disturbed the reposo of the people of that country until every incentive lo honest in? dustry is tau* ii away; they have utterly destroye t tho ability ot this people to pay their legitimate share ot the taxation ol' tLe country. My friends, tho first step in tho right direc? tion is to iay bare every fraud, to exposo and correct all corruptions, tb ^ut off every unneces? sary expenditure, to dismiss every superfluous ofliceholdcr, to abandon every unconstitutional scheme, to abolish ali military governments, to return to the t achings of our constitution, and tho enjoyment of thc liberties which it specially assures to us, to givo reposo to the hearts of thc people, iu order that labor may be stimulated by the hopes ol' a rich reward for its industry. Iho rest of ti. : journey tc h?ppiness and safety, and ponce, will be comparatively easy. Thc Drat step will cost you labor. It can only bc accom? plished by putting out of power tho Republican party, and putting in its placo tho Democratic party. FOR SALE.
