Mr. Sumner thought it was either moonshine or very important, and several senators seeming disposed to throw ridicule upon the matter, Mr. Wilson thought it was better not to sneer just yoi. Some of thc great*st men of the country had laughed when tho magnetic telegraph was first suggested, but the laugh was now on tho other side of tho mouth. -The President of the United Statis has ac? cepted the report of the Government Commis? sioners upon an additional section of twenty miles of the Central Pacific Railroid and Tele? graph Line, terminating at the tour hundred and [seventieth milo post east of the Sacra? mento, and has directed that the bonds be issued to the company, as required by law. The distance between the two roads-Central and Union-is now only about three hundred and twenty miles, the Union Pacific having reached the nine hundred and sixtieth mile post. Should the weather prove favorable they will meet some time in May or June next, and the ontire road will bo complete to Sacramento and ready for use. Of the three hundred and twenty miles yet to build, about one hundred and twenty miles are on level land, and re? quires little or no grading. -Tho Cork Herald gives the particulars of a serios of horrible and almost inctediole occur? rences which happened on board a Dutch ves? sel just arrived in Csrk from South America. A Londoner named Rogers was one of the crew, and either from insanity or cupidity, he seems to have formed a plan tor gettiug posses9lou of the vessel by wholesale murder. On tho fourth day aittr thc phip loft Buenos Ayres, Rosers took a favorable opportunity and pushed the first mato overboard. The cook, in response to his cries, ran to throw him a rope, when Rogers soized him by the Iegp, and threw him into the sea also. Tho second mate ran to help the drowning man. but Rogers endeavored to kill him with au axe. He ran towards tho cabin and jumped down the hatchway, upsetting thc captain, who was running up, and both rolliDg on the floor, Rodgers secured the hatch above them, and made them prisoners. Two men remained on deck, one a Yankee, the other an Irishman, and these Rogers kept apart by threatening to murder them, and compelling them to steer the vessel in turns. For four days the murderer remained master of tho deck, not sleeping during thc time. Owing to a defect in the compass, he supposed tho vessel wan steering straight for the land, when in reality she was moving parallel to the coast. At the end of the fourth day sleep overcame him, and che Irishman, waiting for the opportunity, seized the axe, and at one blow nearly severed his held from his body. Ho then relieved the captain and the second mate, and tho vessel was brought into port. CHARLESTON. MONDAY MORNING, JANUARY 18, 1869. Uar Danger. Thc cotton crop of 1808 has been a God seed to the South. We have money in abundance, our credit is rapidly improv? ing, the chains are broken which bound us, our future is bright with hope. And yet all this will be nu evil, rather than a good, if we do not persevere in that wisc agricultural policy whose first fruits we now enjoy. Our danger is that the planters may be tempted by high prices-the result of a moderate crop, growing trade and reckless speculation-to pitch huge crops of cotton. Each man who Bold upland cotton at 25 or 27 or 2'J cents a pound, doubtless wished that he had twenty bales instead of ten, or a hundred in place of fifty. This feeling, however natural, we must conquer or be undone. We have mado money by the cotton crop of 18CS, because cotton was not our first and principal care. There had been two seasone of anxiety, disappointment and loss, which forced the planter to acknowl? edge that his only safety lay in securing, at any cost, what bread and meat he re? quired. The dullest and most wrong-headed could see this necessity, and, as a conse? quence, the South produced all the bread stuffs she needed, the corn crop of South Carolina alone being 2,000,000 bushels more than it was in 18G7. Cotton was a secon? dary consideration with the planter; but the two-and-a-balf million of bales which form the crop of the year have still brought us more money than four million bales would have done at the prices of before the war. Had the whole strength of the South been directed to the culture of cotton the crop would have been three million bales or more, and then our fortunes would have been staked upon one cast of the die, prices would have lallen and the purchase of Western grain would have swallowed up the greater part of the net proceeds of our cot? ton. As it is, we have been independent of outside help. We have not eaten into the morrow, we have not been obliged to throw our cotton upon the market, and we approach another season with distended purses and the fairest prospects of success. But the lessons of this year and of the years which have preceded it will be worse than thrown away, if high prices induce our planters to make colton their king and not their slave. The first labor, the first thought, the first pains, should be given to wheat, corn and provision-: and then, and not before, might the reign of cotton begin. We should have the best seed, so as to im? prove the staple; fertilizers should be used freely, so as to increase the yield per acre; no more land should be planted than can be cultivated regularly and weli. Aud a oolion crop made iii this manner will re? peat the lesson of 1808, and realize for us far moro money than a larger yield at lower prices with millions of dollars to pay away in buying our daily bread. There is, we repjat, but on? safe plan : PLENTY OF PROVISIONS FIRST AN? NEXT A MODERATE CROi' OF COTTON. If our planters will stick to this policy, they will grow rich; if they do nol, they will assuredly ruc the day when the desire to become suddenly wealthy caused them to forsake the plain paths of prudence and common sense. Freedom of Debate. In the lower house of Berlin a motion authorizing freedom of debate was lately carried by a majority. When it came before the upper chamber-tho aristocrotio branch-Count Bismarck frankly stated that he had been oppesed to the principle, but that, considering thai constitutional life must consist of a series of compro? mises, he now yielded. "In the present "case, he had never attached any great "practical importance to the question at "issue, and his opposition had been mainly "caused by MB theoretical disagreement "with the principle which was sought to "be established. As the minister of a con? stitutional State, however, he considered "it ncoessary (hat he should not allow his "personal convictions to stand in the way "of a good understanding between the "house and the government." This decla? ration being too liberal for the royal, noble, and clerical members of the upper cham? ber, was most coolly received, and on a Tote was rejected by a majority of G3 to 41 j Totes. AU the ministers but three voted in the minority. Count Bismarck and one of his colleagues were engaged in the lower { house, and the Miaister of Justice vote with the Court party. It is not Prussia, but Austria, that uow heads the party of | progress. Austria has granted the fullest freedom of debate to her German and Hun? garian Parliaments: but Prussia, "with sovereign who really believes himself to bc, like John, "aman sent from God," rejects the resolution that free debate in her Leg? islature shall be permitted. IT WILL be seen by our Columbia corres? pondence of this morning, that there is good authority for saying that General Wade Hampton has not authorized the U3e of his name in connection with the Presi? dency of the South Carolina Railroad Com? pany. The understanding is now general that the suggestion of opposition to the present administration of the company, whe yield to none in their regard for General Hampton, comes froma quarter whose efforts to injure the trade of Charleston have been consistently, and, so far, successfully, oppos? ed by the men whom they now desire to put out of their way. General Hampton, we are satisfied, would never co-operate with any party for such a purpose. 11 EARTH AND HOME, the new weekly pub? lished by Messrs. S. M. Pettingill & Bates, New York City, is making rapid strides in public favor. Capital, enterprise and ex? perience are all combined to make it a first class weekly journal. The best talent of j the country ia employed to write for its columns and to sketch its illustrations. A single glance is sufficient to convince one oi its superiority over the mass of periodical literature, and that opinion is confirmed on closer examination. The fifth number, which is just out, is a model family paper, containing a great variety of stories, essays and anecdotes, and a complete compendium of the event9 of the week in the commercial, agricultural, political and fashionable world. Its engravings are one of its principal feat? ures, and are only equalled by the picto? rials of European capitals. The subscrip? tion price is four dollars per annum, and single numbers can bo obtained from news? dealers at ten cents per copy. A CORRESPONDENT of the Orang-'burg News writes as follows : "I have a bait of I "cotton to subscribe to that cottou factory. "Start your company. I think we can get "two hundred bales to start with." Where? upon the News says : "Throo or four of "our friends say the same thing. Now two "hundred bales of cotton, averaging four "hundreds pouuds each, at 20 cents a "pound, is sixteen thousand dollars, and "quite Btifhcient to commence operations on "a sure and firm basie. It is not for us to "undertake tha move. We simply threw "ont the suggestion. The leadirg men in "our community are the proper persons to "take the matter in hand. A company "well organized, with sixteen thousand dol? lars subscribed in cotton, can, we guar "antee, sell one hundred thousand dollars "worth of shares to Northern capitalists. '?.The factory- caa be built if our people "will it." Who will follow the example of Orangcburg, and which county will have the first cotton mill in operation thia year ? A CORRESPONDENT of the Walhalla Courier says: "In 18GG, I planted about threc "quarters of an acje of poor new ground "in tobacco, and realized one hundred and "forty dollars from the eales thereof, be? sides using it two years myself. The "same land would not yield more than ten "bushels of corn. I took pains in the se? lection of my seed and the cultivation of j "my crop." Take note of this. (?arjartnff5?)ip ??o?irc.
