TUE STATE PRESS.
HIGHES WAGES.
The Winnsboro' NCWJ says :
Somewhat hierher wages are already beiog
offered to labor?is by our farmers, and wo only
hope that tolerable" crops at tolerable prico3
will onablo them to pay thom next winter, with?
out repenting of their bargain. For instance,
about eighty dollars is being offered for a
ploughman, which is at least twenty dollars
more than lost year. A third of the crop, bat
with fifty pounds of meat, is another contract
in general favor, which is also better, all things
considered, than last year, for the crop prom?
ises to prove more valuable than it did at
tho same season last year. Lot the freed?
man but work steadily, and aveu be:ter terras
may bo mado by him for 1870, and no ono bo a
loser by them. If he would work more skilfully,
that is. give as hearty attention to thc making
of manure and to thc preparation of the soil,
as to ploughing and hoeiug tho crop, nigher
wages than the present high .wages would bc
his for 1870, to a certainty.
THE CHANGE OF VENUE.
The Abbevillo Banner pitches into the hill
authorizing the Attorney-General to change
the venue in State cases os a blow aimed at
tV dearest interests of tho citizsn.
IHE CONSTABULARY.
Tho Walhalla Courier says:
Why is this county bulwark of Radicalism,
or espionage over quiet and respectable citi?
zens to be continued io Oconee? A county no?
torious alike for tho simdarity of sentiment
and opinions of its citizens, aud the universal
peace and tranquillity that has prevailed within
its limits since the overthrow of substantial
ju nice and the inauguration of innovation and
oppression.
SOCIAL EQUALITY.
The Orangeburg Nows says :
We want it distinctly understood that the
columns of our paper cannot, and never will bo
used, while we control them, to lift the colored
race above tho white. And the white man who
will deliberately strive to make the colored race
think that they are superior to the white race,
is a knave, and the truth is not in him. The
colored mau himself won't trust him. And
whilst we advocate Riving the colored people
all their political rights as citizens-and uso
our every effort to see that they aro justly
dealt by in a Christian land, we at tho same
time assert to our own raco that "whither
thou goost, I will go; and where thou bigest
1 will lodge; thy people shall bo mv people,
and thy God my Ood. Where thou dieal, will
I die, and there will I bc burier; the Lord do
so to me, and more also, if augbt but death
part thee and me."
BACON AND CORN.
The Newberry Herald ssya :
Cotton is a royal arliclo in tho world's com?
merce; at present, it commands a royal price.
We deem it proper to throwout a suggestion
upon the next crop. From all wo can learn,
mote than ever, our planters have in view to
plant cotton almost exclusively. It is a dan?
gerous experiment. Ev ry planter should, at
least, have in view to raise bia own brcadstuffs.
Tho scarcity of corn and bacon enhances thc
prico of labor. Labor, for tho last twelve
months, has advanced at least t cnty-fivo per
cent, in value. Tho nogro ia disappearing,
nobody knows where, and white labor does not,
as yot, take his place. Tho white mau will
pause boi'oro ho comes, asa laborer, to a couu
tiy not well snppliod with beet and grain.
Even at tho present prico of neuro lauor, the
white laborer would uot be willing to compete.
If labor is to contiuue scarce, aud the price of
labor to advance steadily t>y the increase of
tho surface in cotton, it is doubtful if the
planter w.ll bo remunerated sufficiently by
the probable advance iu the prico of tho groat
staple. In all probability, tho price ot tho
bulk of the present crop is the maximum that
the staplo will attain. The single article of
bacon now exhausts, to a large extent, the
wages of the colored laborer aud the profits of
the employer.
Tbeso mattera Bhould be well considered in
connection with pitching another crop. A fail?
ure of a cotton crop, with no corn and bacon,
would entail rum aud starvation upon the ma?
jority of the population. Let us havo bacon
and corn.
SHARING THE CBOP.
The Winusboro' News saya:
Tho impression prevails amongst some that
the share of the ciop c.iutract .letw'een land?
lord and laborer is something now under tho
sun, and has arisen from tho exhausted con?
dition in which tho war loft tho >outhern peo
?le. Now the truth is, that in perhaps tbrec
)urtb8 of Fiauco and one-half ol Germany, at
this very dav. "t'.ic metayer system ot tanning
preva?s," which ii a modification of tho share
ol tho crop contract system, and from what
writerstho subjou say, ?re believo that very
many of thu cou tract a aro identical, iu owry
rea yeot, with those which have been made in
the"South during the hut lew years. Adam
Smith, whoso work was pula.isuod iu 177G,
common's upon t?o metayer s>siem, so that it
U a century old nt least in Europe. "Wb.it
cver theoretical obj.-ctims may bo made to it,"
says Tuckor. iu tv work published on "Politijal
Economy for Poop.e." lout? bonne tho war, "in
France aud raauy parts of Europa, a happy
aud prosperous peasantry flourished under it."
TUE K. K. K's.-A party of this mysterious
order (tho K. K. K's) dino iuto town OH Sat?
urday night ahmt two o'clock, and going to
the Johnson Homo, boldly e aiered aud called

they took the liberty, wo aro told, of searching

pany then went to tho residence of Mr. Bige

His method of Application and Results.
IFrom tuc Soitbitn Cultivator.l
Editors Southern Cultivator: As I am con?
stantly receiving letters from all parts of tba
cotton growing States, asking my yiows of
guano-what kinds I prefer-how 1 uso it, and
what quantities V-I will make the Cultivator
the medium of my answers to all. Some twen
tj'-live years ago I began to experiment with
guano. First, I tried Peruvian. This gave
good satisfaction, but was, I then thought,
rather expensive I have since tried all tho
other varieties of note. Sonic were .good
others worth loss. I had como'a theconclu
siou that tho Peruvinn, however c ally, was
thc chcapestin tho cud, as a hard working,
industrious man could manip?lale it with any
other substuuo he thought proper. I have
found salt, plaster, flower Qf bono3, swamp
muck, fte., valuable to manipulate with Peru?
vian guano, but tho labor ot manipulation
is great, arid in the process of manipulation
much of tho ammonia ctcapes. Prom
this fact I have boon led to inquire whether
there was not an excess of ammonia in Peru?
vian guano, and whether it would uot be more
advantageous to pay for the phosphates than
to pay so much extra for tho volatile ammonia.
Whilst full of this idea I struck tho Soluble
Pacific Guano, and was BO. well pleased with it
that last year I manured one-half of my cotton
with it, and tho other half with tho genuine
Peruvian. Tho eame quantity of each was
used per acre. The laud was of tho same
quality, tho planting and culture was in all re?
spects tho same, and wheu the crop was gath?
ered it was ?mpossihlc to toll wbich was tho
best. Now tho Soluble Pacific Guano cost me
$20 ?ess per tou, aud rvs a consequence I have
this year used the Soluble Pacific Guana alone,
lt co3t mc, at the agent V depot m Columbus,
$75 par toa.
it may bc well herc to state the character of
myland. 1 do not live OD exactly what would
bo" called pine ban ens, but it is next to it. The
older portion of my land will not, with ordina?
ry cul lute, brim; three hundred pounds of seed
cotton to tho acre. A field of ten acres, which
I wished to experiment on with ?the Dickson
cotton, hybridizing it with my upland long
staple, I ploughed and subsoiled m March,
leaving the surface portoctly level; the 20th of
April, I laid it off m lauds* about twenty-five
feet wide, and sowed Soluble Pacific Guano
broadcast, at tho rate ol two hundred pounds
to tho ucm. This I turned uudcr with a turn
shovel plough, then opened furrows three fee:
apart with" a lon<r poiut scooter, follow?
ing in the samo furrow with a shovel
plough; in this furrow I put two hun?
dred pounds more of tho gua::o to tho
acre. I'beu 1 threw tho furrows together
into the centre with a turn-shovel, which
left but a slight ridgo. and on this ridgo platit
"ed the seed. Tho Dickson variety bears much
thicker planting than other kinds. The growth
and fruiting of tho crop was superb-nothing
eqLal to it had ever been soon in this section
ot tLO country, and if tho worms had not
swept all the top and end . bolls, it would have
made two good halos to tho acre. As bad as
it has turned out, it ha' made a bile to thc
acre, 'lo a half acre near my dwelliu-r, that I
had cowpenned last winter, I applied two hun?
dred pounds of tho Soluble Pacific Guano m
tho drill, aud, notwithstanding excessive wet
weather tn August, and tho worms, which took
all the late crop, 1 have picked over two thous?
and pounds of seed.cotton from the half acre.
There are those iu liiy neighborhood who plant
land as good as minc, but without guano, that
will scarcely realizo a bale from ten aero j this
year.
And now a word to tho pureboscr. If you
would get tbo Soluble Pacific Guano genuine,
purchase it only o? tho authorized agents of
tho company. I* have tried the Peruvian and
Pacific ou my garden crops, but with no good
results. Peruvian Guano seems to bc emphat?
ically the food for cotton fruit-other fertiliz?
ers may make moro weod; but in tho purchase
of Pomvian Guano, we aro paying for a vola?
tile ammonia, much of which is hound to es?
cape without benefit to crops. Will it not bo
to the planter's interest to toke that guano
which ?8 richer in phosphates, and yet an
abundance of ammonia for all practical pur?
poses? The Soluble Pacific Guano I have
found from sound practical tests to be equal to
the Peruvian and much choaper. I hold that
no man can afford to plant cotton without
guano. CHAS. A. PEABODY.

AGRICULTURAL LABOR IN ENG?
LAND.
A board of commissioners were lately ap?
pointed by tho English Government to inquire
into and report upon the facts connected with
the employment of women and children in field
labor in that kingdom. Their report has been
presented, and from it wo gai her the fellowing
facts. Speaking of Northumberland, tho re?
port says :
Women uro extensively employed through?
out the whole year, and their labor is con?
sidered essential for tho cultivation of tho
land. The work of two women ?B usually
required for every seventy-live acres of tho
ligliL land, and a larger proportion lor that
wbich is heavier, or farmed ou the four
COUT80 instead of tho five-ceutso syotem.
Their labor consists in tho various opera?
tions of cleaning tho land, picking stones,
weeding, Ac.; turnip hoeing, haymaking and
harvest work, rooting aud sha wing (that is,
cleaning) turnips; barn work, with tbo thrash?
ing and winnowing machines, filling dung
carts, turning dung-heaps, spreading duug,
and sowing artificial manure; turnip cutting iu
tho winter for sheep, ftc, and occasionally
driving carls or harrowing; m some instaueo .
forking (pitching) and loading bay or corn,
though when such is the case two w> mon are
put to tho work of or.e man. The Northum?
brian women who do these landa of labor arc
physically a splendid race; their Btrength is
such that they can vio with the men iu carry?
ing sacks of corn, and there seems to be no
work in tho nelda which affecta them ?ujurioua
ly, however hard it may appear. The univer?
sal opinion and feeling ia that it conducen to
he alt?.
The dross of these north-country womon is
admirably adapted lor their work; being mado
to fit easily it doos not encumber them, and
boing of strong materials, it defies all weath?
ers. Generally it consists of a pair of stout
boots, a very short thick woollen petticoat,
warm stockings, a jacket, ftc.; over ali a wash?
ing pinaioro with sleeves (called a slip), which
preserves their dross from the dirt. Their
faces are protected by a shade or "ugly" of di?
vers colors.
Children Beldom, if ever, go to work in tue
Glendale Uuion beforo oleven or twelve yeara
of age, aud then merely tor summer work.
Their employment is boeingpotatoos and corn,
turnip hoeing, (two being put to tho work of
ono woman), haymaking, assisted at harvest
by making bands, ftc, weeding and picking up
stones.
THE FLIGHT OF Mn. DAVIS.-A member of
the escort, wbich accompanied Jefferson Davis
in his last ihght from Richmond ha* written a
letter to the Loui.-villo Democrat denying
some of Mr. Pollard's statements in his re?
cent article in Packard's Monthly." "?Lr. Pol?
lard." he sa>s, "tukts up considerable erjaee
in describing tue pre para: ions midelor flight'
previous to thu tall of Richmond, aud men
tries to show that Mr. Davia was frightened
when hu received General Leo's telegram. * * *
Now, Richmond foll on the third of April; Mr.
Davis was m Washington, Georgia, on the
th"-d of May--juat ono month in travelling a
dm...nee that could easily have been made in a
day or two. Mi. Davie remained in one camp
(u?t far Iran Charlotte, North Carolina) len
days. Wheu he leif that camp ho knew that
thc Federals were aboad of him. but there was
no effort made to got out of their reach by
forced marches. Mr. Pollard says that Mr.
Davis did not 'torset' tho money in the treas?
ury, less thau $4?,?00. I'b-s is said to create
thc impression that Mr. Davis used thc money.
This ia untrue. The mouey iu the treasury
was equally divided among the men composing
the escort. I was ono of them, and received
twenty-five dollars in spocio. Every mau in
the brigade (Fergusou'a) received tho same
n mount. Mr. Pollard saya tho escort was coiu
poseo of five brigades, iu all about oue tuous
and men. Our brigade commander paid off
over niue hundred at Washintou, Georgia, on
tho third of May. Giving tho four other bri?
gades only moe hundred men together, we
have eighteen hundred mon on the escort.
Givo twent.x-fivo dollars to each man and we
have $15,000--$5000 more than Pollard says
Davis blurted from Bichmond with. It was
generally understood that Pollard was one of
the editors of tho Richmond Examiner during
the war. Perhaps he bates Mr. Davis because
that gentleman refused to run the Confede?
racy as the Examiner dictated."
THE REVOLT UV SPAIN.
The Insurrection in Cadix-The Conflict
Ect wron the Military and the People
Exciting Scenes and Incident?.
Tho Seville cirrespondence of the London
Times contains thc following graphic account
of the insurrection iu Cadiz, and the surrender
of thc sc-sallod rebels:
When tho sun rose on Sunday, tho Gib, thc
relative position ol' the two partios was as fol?
lows: Tho troops, altogether about three thou?
sand, held tho barracks, thus commanding the
land gate; butas tho suburb of San Jose, just
oulsid ., was occupied by tho insureouts, the
crate was available to neither party. Tho troops
held thc customhouse, which they made their
headquarters, and the whole of tho wall be?
tween it and tho barracks, thus keeping pos?
session of thc sea gato and a gate near the cus?
tomhouse called tho Seville gate. Two forts
San Saba8tian and Santa Catalina-with the
park of artillory, wcro in tho possession of tho
military, hut, boiog isolated and only slightly
garrisoned, they took little part in the conflict.
Thc town-house formed tho headquarters of
tho militia, among whom ono Salgocliea, and
also Junco, a master tailor, seemed to havo
acted prominent parts. It had been aban?
doned by tho municipal authorities, who had
taken rcfugo in the customhouse. Ia the
bas?me ut of the town-houso tho insurgents
placod a thirty-six-pounder cannon, directed
towards the soa gate, while at tho left of tuc
buildiug, across tbeonds of tho streets, which
there opened on to tho square, were two bar?
ricades, each armed wita a similar gun, and
on tho right a very sjrong and extensive two
sided barricade constructed of barrels ana
crates filled with stones, which likewise was
provided with two guns of similar calibro,
pointed across tho square. Tho converging
bro of fivo guus could thus be brought to bear
on any troops attempting to assault the town?
house, for the square was much narrower at
the sea gate eud than at tho other. Th es A
guns, wbicb provod so trlghtlully destructive
to the troops, were loaded with every variety
of old iron-nails, screws, locks, key*, flat?
irons and scraps of every kind, of which I saw
heaps af er wards in the basement of tho town?
house.
Besides this, every street which opened to?
wards tho walis, ?iud most of the great thor?
oughfares, contaiued loopholed barricades
from five to six feet high, constructed of pav?
ing-Stones, or occasionally of barr?la of ce
mont, balea ot brown paper, or sacks of coffee,
&c. Stones wcro carried up to the roots of
thc houses, aud I also saw two 8-inch gun* in
position ou thc south sido, but which did not
scorn to have been tired, the principal attacks
being made ou the cast side of tho town. Tuc
troops in the customhouse directed their ef?
forts against tho houses opposite tbo custom?
house and tho streets leading from it into tho
town. They succoedod in po acsaing them?
selves of several ot tho houses; but in the
streets they seem, from tho marks on tho
walls, to have been uniformly unsuccessful,
never penetrating far up thom, and, from tbo
immense number of marks of rifle balls,
either they must Lave fired very wildly or
fought most desperately. It was in ono of
these attacks that General Peralta received a
serious wound m thc foot, which later com?
pelled him to transfer tho command to Gene?
ral Lasorua.
The troops from tho barracks ondcavorod to
sturm the barrica lea on the square and to take
the town house, which they cannonaded from
the wall with shot, shell and grape, the marks
and destructive effects of which missiles, to?
gether With inoumerable rifle shots, are visi?
ble over the entire facade of the town house
and most of the other buildings on tho square.
Tho trees which grow there, now torn by grape,
present a most curious spectacle, aa do aleo
tho richly furnished and decorated rooms of
tho municipality, tho statues, busts, clocks,
chairs, lustres, writing tables, ?co., being per?
forated and destroyed by tho numerous pro?
jectiles that entered through the windows.
I found any attempt to count tho number of
shot marks on the houses which had Buffered
most quite useless, and it acorns utterly unac?
countable how ibo loree engaged should have
been able to fire away BO many shots in the
sixty-five hours duriug which the fight lasted.
? Spaniard stated that he counted three hun?
dred in a space oight metres by four on the
/acode of the town-house, which building was
struck thirty times by cannon shot and shell.
The most fatal attack was that mado on tho
6th by tho Cazadores de Madrid, who. landing
from Trocadcro, carno turough the sen gate,
and rushing on, notwithstanding the fire of
tho cannon, succeeded ia crossing the first
barricades; but being unable to take those be?
hind them, were killed almost to a maa be?
tween tho two. It is said that out of one hun?
dred and twenty-live not twonty-flve escaped.
Throughout tho next morning the fighting was
uuabaied; the troops were reinforced by three
hundred men of '.he regiment Barcelona, and
ti vessol m the harbor commenced a bombard?
ment which, however, was discontinued, ow
iug. it u said, io the energetic intervention of
tho American and other cousu s.
Several attempts hud been made by vessels
in the harbor to furnish food and ammunition
to the troops through thc Seville gato, but this
being perceived by tho insurgents, tney were
stopped by the fire from tho honsos. ibo in?
surgents, loo, were running short of cartridges;
but in the afternoon tney succoedod in posses?
sing themselves of tho wall and sea gmo, tho
centre of their enemy's lino, thus dividiug the
forces opposed to them into two, gaining pos?
sessen of tho mule aud relieving the town?
house from tho cannonade to which it had
boen hitherto exposed. That evening thc tire
diminished, and next morning the flag for a
parley was hoisted at tho customhouse.
A truce was theu agreed upon to bury tho
dead, during which, also, those so inclined,
wera to bo allowed to leave the city, a permis?
sion ??fi or wards limited by tho insurgent? lo
women, children aud old people, aud of which
it is said, some twenty thousand people availed
themselves. In tho moan while, too, the con?
suls who, till then, with some other foreign?
ers, bad been kept in the city as a safeguard
against bombardment, made strenuous efforts
to arning*- mattere and Bave the place from
further Uoodshed.
Tho governmout willingly continued the
suspension of ho8tilities from day to day,
thinking it prudent to romain passive until
the preparations of Geucr.il de Bodas were
completed.
Thus it was that tho truco lasted four days,
untU Cabellera do Bodas, being quite ready to
assault the place with au overwhelming force
by land and sea, ?out into the city un Saturday,
tue 12th, a proclamation, stating tho moaus at
his disposal, but at thc same time promising
personal safety to tho lusurgouts should they
lay down their arms within a limited time iu
tno places hu appointed; if they refused, it
would u<it bo his fault ii* ii became necessary
that he should cany oat tho dis.igrcoublo duty
imposed on him. Tue result was a depu'ation
from (lie insurgent:', av combined hy the Uni?
ted States consul, accepting the terms, i'uo
inflowing day tho army en prod, a.".d on Mon?
day tue people begun ti) roturu to their ho.ucs.
Tua. evening tue Plaza San An.ouio ptc
seuled a very animated scene. Tue anny nail
put on a different appearance from Waat ii had
a ?reek bet?re; four bands ut music Were p.ay
iug in succession st tuc four Comers of thu
.-qa arc-a strange contrast <viib the gr.-a; nap
lett by a bombshell m tho side ut 01.0 Of the
houses there.
Ono ol' tho old placard*, '-Viva la Rep?blica !
pena do Muerto al Ludion I" ("Long live tho
licpubiic! Deatn to l'uievoa I") still uung un?
observed in a bacs street; but barricades were
'fast being pulled down, tho bro.io 1 ghis3 aud
old iron wore being swept away in tho town?
house, while shot m.rks were being plastered
up by numerous workmen. It may bo askou:
What is tho aspect of the population of those
who louent on tho root-tops und behind barri?
cades-sad and gloomy ? Certainly not I ihe
light in which they 'seo it all is this: The
troops wished to disarm men "who had a right,
to carry arms; they bought; ia every encounter
they beat the trcops; they yielded to thc force
of "circumstance?; the rest of Spain did not
rise, but still they are, in their own estimation,
victors.
Tnoro is a very dark side of tho affair-the
eighty or ono hu tired Gardianiuns (three of
them"women) and about lour huudivd soldiers
that it has hurried to the burial-field.
