[FaOM OCR OWN C0BHE?TOSDKNT.]
COLUMBIA, 8. C., April 29.-In the ?
Agricultural Convention tb is morning, on
eubjeot of cotton mills and manufactories,
Lawton, of Charleston, after pr?sentant
the report of the Committee on Manufacti
adverting to his investigation of tho subje
England, France and Germany, alindee
the vast wealth accumulated in those c
tries from the manufacturo of cotton rab
No one, he said, who bad not vi si te. 11]
countries and the New England States c
?ell conoeive the vast importance of the g
staple of the South to tbe nations of the ea
The conclusion he drew from all he saw
that we bad not availed ourselves of those g
privileges which Almighty God appearer
have designed for ns. We have all the mat?
necessary for the fabrication of goods
the world requires, and yet we con
ourselves entirely to its production. 1
contd not expect any people to rise
eminence or distinction who solely con
themselves to one pursuit, whether it
diggiug gold from the earth or pearls fi
the ocean. It is utterly inconsistent with
order of affairs. It does not appear to bel
to our creation. No two faces look, no
leaves look alike in nat oro. Tbe command
God appear to order that we must divers
change and adapt the means of prosperity t
other people do. He thought the product
of cotton alone bad been our ruin, and he mi
tained that if these ten Southern States p
better attention to manufactures and mech
icism they never could have been snbdo
The Southern States were crus i i ed by the wfj
power of the world. Those they were feed
with their cotton came against them. 1
rate of interest in Liverpool was two per ce
per annum. In his own city, Chariest
when he left in August last, it was two and a I
per cent, a month, and very difficult to be i
tained at that. He told them in England tl
they bad tanght bim a lesson, and when
went borne he would endeavor to persuade 1
people to grow less cotton and manufactt
as muon as they could. Two or three days a
when he saw drays going through the stre<
loaded with cotton marked Gram te ville, he n
inepired with hopea ani many ot them
trusted would yet see the day when our cott
manufactures will compete in the markets
the world with those of France, Germany a
England.
Mr. Lawton then gave an interesting t
count of a visit to the great spool thread ma
factory of Mr. CoatB, in Scotland. Th
buildings, he said, occupy an immense spat
The proprietors are gentlemen of refineme
and taste. He was conducted through eve
department of tbat immense manufactura
establishment. T bey have the'most beautif
machinery, perfect engines, and every possit
means of turning the thread. They don't u
raw cotton. They buy their yarns chiefly
Bolton and Manchester. I observed to kl
Coats that bis yarn had taco familiar to a
from my early life.
To show the immense wealth acoummolah
by .-these people, Mr. Lawton said they emplc
sixteen hundred bands in one day. I was coi
ducted through Mr. Goafs' magnificent gre?
horse and his hot-honse, where they had plan
from wery portion of God's earth. Arnon
OL i is waa the glorious old palm Jtto. Thc
were enabled to soe.id upon these hot-house
and green-bouses ?30,000 sterling, or $200 (XX
I suggested ip Mr. Coats that tbe time i
coming when the South must engage large!
in manufactures, and told him if he woul
rame to Colombia and use some of his capiti
we would farxrieh bim with Uta hoot aattea h

Mr. Baxter, of Newberry, in response to th
invitation ot the Convention, gave some inter
sating information of tho workings of the New
Dairy Emigration Society. He paid a higl
compliment to General John A. Wagener, am
laid ne was instrumental in turning the acten
Lion of these people to the matter of emigra
don. They were already impressed with thi
aocessitv of au increased amount of labor, bu
it was found wholly impracticable to arai
themselves of any arrangement made by th<
State through General Wagener, as head o
the Emigration Bureau. A number of gentle
men contributed a small amount of money, t.
be drawn out as each subscriber desired labor
The money has been turned ever nu meron
times in bringing forward between two ant
three hundred laborers. Eaoh member of tin
Booie'y pays in fifty dollars, but can take mon
abares if he desires. The money is usedtt
bring the laborers, who in time return it t<
the society. They had now in their emploi
an educated German, Mr. Briggenian, wbx
speaks four or five languages, and has procnr
ed fao?ities they never had before. Tb<
society has a credit, as an ?migration society
in New York. It is known that laborers com?
ing to us will be cared for on the way and whet
they reach here, and cared for until they gel
employment. So that the agents in New iori
feel no hesitation in sending any laborers tc
the society, because they know they will nol
return with complaints of ill -usage or want ol
attention. The society is doing a good wort
and making a reputation. They had now or
ders on file from General Beauregard, desiring
laborers to be sent to him through our society,
to the State of Texas. They bave more ordert
than they can fill.
This society is a nucleus around which mighl
cluster kindred and auxiliary societies to carry
out a great purpose. He did not know that
this body could turn iba attention io a more
important subject than that of procuring an
increased supply oi labor. He did not care
where it came from, whether from Germany,
Great Britain, New York, or Massachusetts, sc
that it comes here as labor, bringing the capi?
tal and muscle.
Dr. E. B. Tumipseed, of Newbarry, con?
curred io the statements of his colleague, and
added that he bad a number of Germans on
his place. They were good farmers, easy to
learn, and assimilate with oar people, kind to
animals, and it was just tbe labor to suit their
country, lt had gone abroad that negroes only
are adapted to our country. This was a great
mistake. 1 he Germans stood the heat as well,
ii not better, than the negro.
Mr. Boineat said ho introduced the first lor?
eign labor into Newberry District after the
war. He became satisfied, after two or three
years, that the laborers he was then working
would not succeed, and a little more than a
twelve month ago he wrote to a friend-a mis?
sionary among the emigrants at Castle Gar?
den-to secure him a good German family for
his place. This was the beginn mg of the emi?
gration society. He divided his farm into three
sections, and pat two sections io charge of
colored labor?is respectively. The thud he
gave to the Germans. His experience was that
the white laborer was at work every day, doing
eveiything or anything he was asked or re?
quired to do. 1'be negro contended that be
bad nothing to do not immediately connected
with the working or gathering of tbe crop.
This was the beginning, and the result has
been the formation of the Newberry Society, to
which he had given twelve months' hard work
in bringing it to its present condition. The
Newberry Society bas a cr?dit?t the Labor Ex?
change, Castle Garden, in New York, which it
would be difficult for any other organization to
secure. The agent there said he would enter?
tain no application from tbe Southern country,
unless it carno endorsed through the Emigra?
tion Society of Newberry. It was with no ht tie
trouble we secured this endorsement. They
were very cardn'. They had sent some to Flo?
rida and made i grand lailure. Emigrants sent
there and elsewhere were badly treated, and
made their way back as best they could. Tbe
Newberry Society bas no such name to bear at
headquarters, hut stund recorded A No. 1, and
they have taken bold of us by tho hand, and
bid us welcome and God-speed. In order to
secure all available labor that will come South
they have even enclosed a separate apartment
where all tho families that want to come South
are put, in order to prevent them being tam?
pered with, for there are shark-? who will steal
them if they can. They stole twenty-five from
us, with all the .vatabfu ness and car? I took,
tbe very day I was embarking thom ou board
the ship.
In regard to the compensation, ten dollars a
month and rations is usually allowed each la?
borer. The amouul for rations d flers ; somo
allow as high as eight or ten dollars a
month for rations, and of course, tho better
you pay them the better they are satisfied, and
work better.
Mr. J. P. Thomas introduced the following :
Whereas, It is deemed important to put this
society into effective operation at an early pc
nod. and at once to placo before ita me m bi
an object practical and substantial; be it ?
Besotted, That tbe Executive Committee
authorized to raise the necessary funds,
subscription or other wise, for tho purpose
tree ti og in this city buildings necessary for t
annual fairs of tbe society.
Resolved, That the first annual fair of t
Agricultural and Mechanical Society of Sou
Carolina be held in Columbia on the seco
Wednesday in November, and that the Exec
tive Committee be requested to make all i
cessary arrangements lo this end.
Mr. Thomas said :
Mr. President-On yesterday I must confe
that I somewhat despaired of the success
this movement. It seemed to me that the d
eussions indulged in were somewhat wide of li
mark. But the indications and developmen
this m or Din g have cheered me, and indue
the belief that this enterprise will be proe
outed with success. I am one, sir, who ha
confidence in our people and faith in the f
ture. Wisely adapting ourselves to the nc
order of thing3 and availing ourselves of tl
elements at our command, I believe it possib
to putee the prosperity of our State upon
basis more firm an l durable than that upo
which it formerly rested. But this, sir. cann
be accomplished by the putting forth of a
truBe propositions or the simple adoption
resolutions. More than tbe eloquence of won
we need the eloquence of action; more tht
the weal? h of intellect we need tbe wealth th
springs from material development. Mr. Pre
ident, to obtain success in tins movemen
and to help on the industrial regeneration <
the State, we must adopt practical instrumei
taimes. Sir, the human mind is BO constitute
as to require something real, something tang
ble, to arouse its enthusiasm, to quicke
its energies. Hence my proposition at one
to erect your building's, and at once t
hold your fairs. Let this be done, an
we form a nucleus around which our efibrl
may gather, and from which vitality may fion
If we expect to succeed we must raise tb
funds necessary, and go at once to work.
Mr. President, when the temporary chaii
man stated that the life of the State reste,
upon this con /ention, ho stated what was true
Let us resolve to make this movement a sue
cess, to the end that we may bring back to t i
State an era of prosperity and plenty. Sh
when the poet saya :
"Thy spirit, independence, let mo share
Lord of the lionheart and eagle eye,"
he expressed a sentiment that finds a respons
in every elevated nature. Now, sir, if w
would catea that spirit, if we would reach the
height of a lofty independence, we must gc
through temples resounding with the hnm o
machinery, and pass on through field? whit*
with cotton and waving with grain.
Gentlemen of the Convention, in tbe provi?
dence of God the political cross has boen Lr1<
upon our shoulders, and we rest under tb?
ostracism of oar own country. Bat God hat
given us great natural advantages-has givet
us a genial climate and a teemiag soil. Bravo
ly ./orking and wisely using the elements
within our grasp, we can mould them to thc
enduring interests of the State, and make thc
future of South Carolina prosperous as het
past is rich ia the noble devotion of her mer
and the matchless spirit of her women.
Mr. President, I hope the Convention will
entertain the resolutions.
The resolutions were unanimously adopted.

of drawing out expressions norn tho planting
interest here upon a matter which vory vital?
ly concerns our agriculture :
Besoted, Tint it is the sense of this Con?
vention that the experience of the past three
years, with the present element ot labor, has
demonstrated the impracticability of any sys?
tem of shares or partnership-that stich
systems are in fact contrary to the fundamental

operation of capital and labor-and that a
judicious and liberal system of wages is be?
lieved to be the only one upon wbicb effective
labor may be based and ultim te success follow.

QUANT AND HIS FRIENDS.
Dana makes a forcible application thus
"Suppose that it had been discovered am
proved, during the hunt after Andrew Johnsoc
that ho had appointed persons to office wh
had bea to wed on him valuable gifts, would nc
the impeachment trial have had a different n
suit?"
Several men who wrote to the President i:
favor of the appointment of friends have bee:
astonished at receiving unsolicited commie
fiions themselves. The mystery was solved b;
the fact that they closed their letters by Baying
"I have tho honor to subscribe myself," dec.
it being the rule to give all subscribers some
thing.
Tne Washington Cbronicle says : "One o
the most interesting sights visible occasionall;
in our streets is the miniature 'establishment
of Miss Nellie Grant, daughter of the Presi
dent, consisting of a pretty little baake
barouche drawn by a diminutive pair of Shet
land ponies. On the iront seat, Miss Nellie, ii
a becoming spring suit, holds the whip anc
reins-graceJully, while, perched behind, a col
ored footman, sitting bolt upright with foldec
arms, surveys thc curious gazers on eithei
side of the street with dignified satisfaction."
The correspondents say that the Presiden!
is becoming crusty, suspicious, morose and
chronically unhappy. His body and mind are
both suffering. He finds the presidency toe
large for him. That is the whole matter,
His health is not good. He baa had to shut up
shop six times already in as many weeks. He
is losing flesh. Visitors complain of his
brusqueness, and many ol them of his temper.
Every day at 4 o'clock he runs off for a ride
and a Binoke, and he has who'ly stopped visit?
ors of nights. These be spends with his house?
hold in the private family rooms of the Execu?
tive mansion. The few admitted there speak of
him as giving the appearance of being thor?
oughly fagged out by each day's round of
work. He smokes incessantly, and sits for
hours with his little girl's hand inbii own, not
saying a word, and never rallying except when
his wifJ makes it a point that he shall. Mrs.
Grant is universally regarded as a sweet, plain,
dutiful woman, whose head hasn't been a bit
turned. She is widely respected, and can cer?
tainly do more with her husband than any one
else can.
There is a legion of dis :on ten ted Republi?
cans in Waihington. Cameron openly says :
"Without taking my advice the President and
Secretary of State succeeded in giving a con?
stitutional drunkard a good mission, and a
c.msti tu tiona] thief a consulate, besides credit?
ing Pennsylvania with a Secretary of tbe
Navy who has succeeded within six weeks
in ridding the party of every working?
man's vote. Tho only minister we have
(except a negro, who cannot bo a voter
in oui State,) ia a man Bot down for
Russia whe ought to be sent to the Lobos
Islands vice guano romoved." Schurz says
to and of the President : "Your selections
are unknown men who do not represent
thc party or conduce to its strength in
the State of Missouri." And to tho Senate: "I
hope the men who have dared to impeach one
President will not flinch before tbe face of
another." Rosa, Fowler and Brownlow have
openly broke with the President, and Sprague
says: "He is utterly tied up by the politi?
cians; I have no hopo of him; I have departed
trom him." Mr. Edmunds takos pains to snub
the President ou evory occasion and General
Butler said when Giant caved on tbetenure
of-office question : "The President doesn't
know anything moro about law than an old
lieu,and any one can wini him around his
lingera."

find PLANTATION BITTERS, and while he con?
demned the practice of using these Bitters too free?
ly, he cou d not conscientiously say that he would
discard them from the sideboard, for h_ had himself
experienced beneficial results from their use, and
that, from a long aud close observation, he was con?
vinced that when used modera'ely, an 1 asa medicine
exclusively, they were all that was recommended. At
the same time he warned his hearers not to pull the
