Wednesday Morning, March 20,1867
Thc L?<-S.HOI> of til? Hour.
The frightful and extensive desti?
tution of the means of subsistence
throughout the Southern States con?
vey an impressive lesson to those en?
gaged in agricultural pursuits, and
one which we. in common with many
of our cotemporaries, believe it to be
their paramount duty to heed. To?
day, thousands and tens of thousands
in South Carolina, Georgia ?md Ala?
bama are literally without bread, and
without the means of procuring it.
The benevolence and charities of
other sections may mitigate this evil
to some extent, but alas, we fear there
aro many widows and orphans to
whom succor will come slowly, and,
perhaps, too late. Such a condition
of affairs in the "sunny land"' id' the
South is one that, by no means,
should exist again, so far as human
efforts can prevent it.
There is one way to do this, and
one only; and although it may be re?
iteration, yet the fact must be k pt
prominently before every one who
tills au acre of grouud-that tho ear?
nest appeal of our whole suffering
section is, that the farmers should
plant corn, even if there be not 100,
000 bales of cotton raised in the
South. Why should the planters of
the South raise (totten, with a popu?
lation starving around them, to sup?
ply the factories of New England or
foreign markets? The Government
tax is heavy-about one-fifth of the
former price of the staple; the pro?
ceeds must be spent for bread and
moat from the West, and much of the
money received is spent on the pro?
ductions of the looms of New Eng?
land, enhanced, as their real value is,
by high bounty tariffs and unjustifia?
ble profits.
Surely our people will see the folly
of this suicidal policy of keeping the
dills of Lowell running full time,
vrhen thousands at home are lacking
bread. If the South did not supply
the cotton, that monster monopoly ol
cotton manufactures in New England,
?ecured and fostered by unjust legis?
lation against every other section ol
the country, would be stricken down
We would get cheaper goods fron
England and elsewhere, while w<
would be laying tho foundations o
home manufactories throughout th?
whole South. These matters shoulc
be carefully considered, and the die
tates of common sense, prudence ant
patriotism prevails over old habit
and prejudices. Let cotton slide fo
one year tit least, ?us a production fo
export, and we have little doubt bu
the result will prove so clearly tba
the wants and interests of our sectioi
have been vastly benefited, and that
new policy will be inaugurated in th
agriculture of the Gulf States of th
South.
But, besides the necessity of sue'
a change on general principles at thi
viii;'", ami tm- ??x.tin*L i/ubuu?&u?AjCc
in which the people of the South ar
politically placed, there is still th
greater incentive-the higher duty
to raise bread for the people. Ar
other year of want and suffering wi
almost decimate the Southern popt
latiou, and they will have only t
emigrate to more favored sections <
the country, or-starve. We tnt:
that this matter will be continual]
kept just now before our planters an
farmers by our cotemporaries of tl
jir>*ss in every States County ?nd Di
triet iu the South, so that if the di
results which must follow the old Su?
tern should come upon us, the pro
will be clear of any blame in the pr
mises.
A LOST BOY.-Mr. B. E. Wrigh
of Essex County, Virginia, advert?s
in the Richmond papers that a whi
boy, about fifteen years of age, ca
ing himself Standmore Sawyer Joh
agan, left his parents, whom he sa
are natives of Edgefield District,
this State, in Petersburg during t
war, and came to his house witl
wagon train. He is still with ^
Wright, ?uni his friends can comm
uicate with that gentleman by ?
dressing him at Miller's Post Offit
Essex County, Va.
-- ?? ? ? ?
The past winter, although s< ve
and exerting a bad influence on na
gatiou by closing up all the harbo
it is generally admitted by our i
changes, 1ms been an exceeding f
one for the farmers. Snow (tuon
fell to protect the wheal., and then
every prospect of abundant ero
Tlx- Situation.
Tho following reflections are from
t lia Rich mond Dispatclt, of Monday,
and uro very appropriate nt tho pre?
sent time:
We are passing through the period
which requires more coolness and
nerve than any since the failure of the
ri?,,<r,.i- Wo -ono? m..i- ..?? *u.;..~~
^v^o., v., if-^j . .. ^ ".-?V -....-.ty.
as they are, and act vigorously aud
wiso, with the view of preserving the
inter? sts and welfare of thc country.
Wo must not stop to lament over our
condition. We must not waste time
in declamation and hunting after
remedies that have no virtue or force.
Any wise man-any calm and sensible
man-can see that there is no earthhy
way of avoiding tho result of the war
as controlled and directed hy the
power of Congress, now supreme
over both thc executive and the judi?
ciary.
The sacrifice that we have to make
is evident and inevitable. We cannot
say in advance with certainty that it
will be ruinous. Wi' ought to hope
that it will not bc seriously injurious,
and we ought to go to work to pre?
vent, if possible, any evil by controll?
ing it. Universal suffrage is hero;
and the man who deems it dishonor
to participate in public affairs on that
account is recreant to hisduty. He
is not sensible of the real condition
of his country. He is like the man
who sits upon a rock in the sea, and
will not move until he is submerged
by the rising tide. He will be drown?
ed and lost in the flood.
The revolution has led to a certain
result. It, is, we may hope, the last
point in the sad train of misfortunes
to the defeated side. The ruling
Congressional powerof the victorious
side decides that we hold the relation
to the Federal Government of con?
quered provinces, and treat us as
such. The President, who differed
with the Congress, finding himself
defeated by the constitutional ma?
jority, proceeds faithfully to put in
execution their laws made in pursu?
ance of their theories. Thus setting
us thi> example of obedience to the
laws, and placing over us the author?
ity to enforce that obedience.
'What on earth is left for us but
submission-to carry out fully thc
law of Congress, and establish in a
safe and orderly manner that condi?
tion of society which there is no
escaping? To do otherwise will bi
ruin and anarchy.
Tlie die is cast. The sacrifice mus?
be made. If, in this final act ol' re?
volution, we take our destiny in oui
own hands, we can save the country
and protect society. Once the crisis
passed, a new career must be openoc
to us. We will have preserved orde:
and have secured the integrity of tin
superior portion of the population
I superior in numbers and in intellect
This insures the welfare id' the State
Labor will become systematized, con
fidence will be restored, eutorpi'is
encouraged, and capital invited int
the State, if, on tl.ther hand, w
pursue the course of passivity an
inaction, al! is lost, and t lu' State wi]
be plunged into a lower abyss of rai:
and degradation than the most dt
spairing apprehensions could portray

In Sunday's Herald, its Washin

LEXINGTON, C. H., March 13.
At a public meeting, held in the
Court House this day, Judge L. |
Boozer was culled to the Chair, and
Rev. A. Efird appointed Secretary.
The following is the action of the
meeting:
Resolved, That a committee of three
be appointed by thc chairman ot tins

supplies among the destitute of this
District, which may bo forwarded to

And the mooting adjourned.

WAIT AND SEK.-Tho Now York
Times throws out tho following hints,
which are not untimely:
These "wait-and-soeitos," as our
correspondent styles them, are. only ?
hurting themselves by their sullen ?
inactivity. Action will be taken un?
der tho Act of Congress. The loyal
whites and the enfranchised blacks
will take stops to elect delegates to a
constitutional convention, under the
direction of the military governor.
Tho delegates will bo elected, the
convention will meet, and a State
constitution will be framed ami adopt?
ed. If tlie disloyal whites do not
choose to exercise tho power left to
them, they merely leave the whole
field open to the rest of the inhabit?
ants, who will thus be enabled the
more thoroughly to have their own
way. In fact, the practical effect of
the do-nothing policy is precisely
what Congress si night to bring about
by the Louisiana bill. Tin: blacks
and loyal whites are admitted to the
ballot, while all others arc disfran?
chised.
WHEAT CKOP, &C.-The Charlotte
Times, of Tuesday, says:
"We have never seen a more pro- ,
raising appearance than the wheat
crop now presents. ..lore than tho
average breadth bas been sown: tho
stand remarkably good, and the stock
green and vigorous. We conversed, ;
yesterday, with many growers, who ;
assured us that it was not far enough ?
advanced to be injured by the lat*;
unparalelled spell of cold". All the:
early peaches, apricots, ?fcc, are l
doubtless killed, but the apples and
late peaches, cherries, Arc, have soi
far escaped. We have every prospect |
of an abundant harvest, and it be- |
comes our people to see to it. that alli
the corn and meat be saved for home
consumption. Raise necessaries fir t, '.
and then cotton. With the smiles of
Providence on our labors, we can still
manage to draw a comfortable living)
from the fruitful bosom of the earth.
Lid no one relax his efforts by reason
of our present difficulties. Whether
we vote or no, all must eat, and the
wherewithal can only bo gotten by
the sweat of tho brow."
BUYING AND Sm.LINO GRAIN nv THE
CENTAL.-The "cental," or system of
buying and selling grain by the Hil? I
pounds, which is now in general use
in tho Wost and in a few Eastern
cities, is likely to create some confu?
sion in tho quotations: but, in order
that buyers and sellers may avoid
error, we give a rule by which they
can make their own calculations:
"Tho standard weight of wheat per
bushel is 00 pounds; corn and rye.
56 pounds; oats, 32 pounds; barley,
.AS pounds. The price per bushel
being given, to lind the price per
cental, multiply the price per bushel
by 100, and divide by the number of
pounds in a bushel. For instance, at
$1.50 per bushel for wheat, what is
the price per cental? 150x100-15,
000x00-$2.50-w hich is thc price per
contal. Again, tho price per cental
being given, to find the price per
bushel, multiply tho price per cental
hythe number of pounds in a bushel,
and divide by 100. Example: At
?2.50 per cental, what is the price
per bushel of Ol) pounds? 250x00
15,000x100-$1.50, the price per
bushel."
EIGHT Horn SYSTEM.- Two States
have now passed laws making eight
hours a legal ?lay's work. The Mis?
souri Legislature, before adjourning,
passed such an act, and the Governor
has signed it. The special provisions
art? not given. Illinois iiatl previously
done the same, as heretofore stated,
butin the Illinois law there aro pro?
visions which allow any parties to ar?
range tor working a longer time each
dav. hv contract or agreement, ami
also declare that the law itself shall
not apply to farm labor.

PROSPECT OF EARLY RECONSTRUC?
TION.-All indications, public and
private, point to the probability of a
prompt acceptance by the Southern
people of the terms offered by Con?
gress. Not that Southerners approve
of thc bill-on the contrary, they
consider it harsh and despotic -but
they incline to view the subject in an j
i entirelv practical light. They are |
! ready to take, not ali they have a5
?right to, but the best they can get. |
j We are permitted to print the follow
? ing extract from the private letter of
j an eminent Confederate General,
dated March 8, to a friend in this
city :
"The act of Congress, bad as it is
for ns, I think will result (if it stands
as the law, and I presume it will,) in
settling matters between tile North
and the South. I think the great
bod\ of the people of the South are
exceedingly anxious for a final settle- i
ment; and that, relying on this being
snell, tiley will, without delay, ac?
quiesce. "-2/etr !*"/?/.: World.

has been in our midst for a week. He ;
has captured, during that time, thir?
ty-eight stills and several barrels of
liquor, till of which will be confis- 1 I
cated. Assessments have also been
materially enlarged, and a few di- , <
minished. It is the part of prudence, I
as well as duty, to obey the laws of 1
the land. - Pickem Courier.

Postmasters are required to give
advice by letter when a subscriber
does not take Ids paper from the
office; and give tin- reason for its

Any person ordering "his paper
