Tho great advantages of a mild
climate and tho variety of crops
grown in tho Southern States, are
beginning to attract attention. Judge
"Kelly, of Pennsylvania, in an ad?
dress reo?ntly delivered before a^
great agricultural society in Illinois,
told his hearers that they could no
longer count safely upon the South
as a market for their grain, flour,
bacon, lard, hay, Acc.; that the South
xonst of necessity cease the cultiva?
tion of cotton to a large extent,
engage in the production of cereals,
for which it had the best soil aud
el?date in ik?> world, ?nd iu siinn
iacturing, to which it was equally
well adapted. Tho character of
Judge Kelly is disfigured and tur?
moiled by tho silly fanaticism aud
reckless waut of principle which,
having gained temporary aaceud
-aooy, have brought upon tho couutry
the evils which now afflict it; bul his
advice to his North-western friends is
sound and sensible. Mr. Henry Ca?
rey, -of Philadelphia, a writer of
thought and research, is oven more
emphatic in the expression of simi?
lar views, os reproduced in our issue
of Friday. Wo ask our readers to
.recur to his language and ponder it
??veil. It coutains truths of whole?
some significance to us.
We glanced, somo days since, at
tho importance to our pooplo, in
their present condition, of a more
diversified industry and a moro rigid
economy. We complained of tho
.sundi tiues io which our admirable
water power ia put, and urged upon
our mon of enterprise and capital to |
';ako tho matter seriously in hand,
and set this power, now running to j
waste, io tho "music of machinery,"
whirling spindles aud driving wheels.
It is a cheering sign to ns, and a sure
prognostic of futuro success, that
just as the great controlling interest
uf manufactures shows distress and
prostration i:i communities "which
have been bunched by the war, here
-whore tin* desolations und losses
Crom tho sume cause were uriprece
leutcd-this samo interest, almost in
its iufaucy, should show remarkable j
vitality and energy. SenatorSprague,
of lthodo Island, has mude .some re?
markable statements lately, to the
affect that the manufacturing interest
of tho North is almost destroyed, and
S ully as prostrate us the cotton plant?
ing of the South; Ho attributes this j
'result to-the tuxes and unwise legis?
lation of recent .years. Mr] Sprsguo
is tho largest cotton manufacturer
North, and since 1S62 hus also been
engaged in cotton planting. He is,
therefore, thoroughly acquainted with
both interests, and his statements
may bo confidently relied on.
.From overy point in the South)
where manufactories have been es?
tablished, we receive encouraging
accounts'' f their success. In North
?nro'itiU'un?l Georgia, they are doing
JL fine business. The stock of the
Augusta Company lately sold as high
fl s $125. Wo hoar of companies be?
ing formed for manufacturing in
Tennessee, und thc stock rapidly)
taken in New York. In our own
.itfie, tlie establishments at Granite-]
idlle, Saluda, und in Greenville and
Jpartcnburg, ure all prosperous.
They Poem to flourish when every?
thing oise declines. We are pleased
fco D'OI Ibo ?Saluda yarns in our stores,
? :r.:d to hear that the enterprising
proprietors ure reaping a rich re?
ward. We should ho glad lo get
definite information from all qoar
:. rs bearing upon this subject. Our
people need light, und they crave
'something lo do that will repay their
oils, and secure comfort and indo
?xlence. Abundance of intelligent
abor can be procured in our midst,
iud at moderate prices. Capital and
.-.?ill should avail themselves of these
idvautagcs, and consume otir iaw
material at homo, thus saving tho
Lax on cotton, employing tho willing
hands of our own needy population,
and bringing money from tho North
to bo spent in our own destitute com
mrmities. Cotton can never be again
with us, tho great staple production
(hat it wr.8. Nor is it aosirablo th it
it should bo. Better that our pooplo
make their own supplies, raise their
own si ^ck, make about 20 or 25 per
i II III^WI .mi-rt--.
o?nVoT the amount of cotton here^
toforo produced, und manufacture it
at home. ?> '
We couclude this oracle by un ex?
tract of a lotter from Houston, Texas,
bearing strongly upou this point. . tt
is addressed to the New Orleans Pica'
yune. Wo And it in DJ?SOIC'S R??'i?t?
for September, 1667 :
"The Eureka Mills in this c;ty ure
now turning ont 1,200 yards a day,
of splendid !}.{ oz. osja'jnrgs, Which
they aro Rolling by tho bulo at 17
cent?, gold. Their domestics, 8?
inch, of tine quality, almost up to
State A, they sell at 1G>? cents, cur?
rency. They havo demonstrated that
they con, ou all heavy goods, make a
good profit and under-aell the New
England factories. Labor is about
tho same aa in Now England, living
is cheaper, and cottou costs six cents
less per pouud hero than there, to
?ny uutiiiug of tho cost ot getting ino
gooda back. It will bo wonderful if
a little moro demonstration of this
sort does not turn us into a mauufac
turing people. Indeed, the Eureka
Mills are now increasing their pro?
ductive capacity to 2,000 yards per
day. Tho Concordia Mills, at Hemp
stead, aro turning out considerable
oloth. The City Mills, of Houston,
now nearly erected, will, by next
January, prodtico 3,000 yards per
day. The Star State Mills, at Hunts?
ville, aro produoiDg about that now.
We will, ero many months, send you,
Mr. Pio., our cotton in tho various
forms of domestics, jeans, kerseys,
osnaburgs, ticking, stripes, denims,
I apron checks, etc., all of which wo
aro now produciug in considerable
quantities."
-
Mr. Slovens, on introducing a bill
not many days since in the House,
said he had no hesitation in acknow?
ledging that "thoy wero acting out?
side the Constitution in many respects;
it had become too old-fashioned for
thc requirements of this progressive
age." Such a remark from such a
quarter suggests several queries. In
the first place, where does Congress
got its authority to act "outside tho
Constitution?" If, asks tho New
York Times, Congress may act thus,
at its own discretion, .'hy may not
tho President also? Both derive all
the authority they havo-boll), in?
deed, derivo their official existence
from the Constitution; "outside" of
it there oan be in this country neither
President nor Congress. Then, Again,
if the Constitution is "too old-fa?
shioned for Ibis progressive age,"
why not call a Convention to frame a
new one, or propose amendments to
be neted on in tho way pointed out
by its provisions? Or does Mr. ?Ste?
vens think that the idea of having
Constitutions, M Lieh can restrain tho
action of Governments, or depart?
ments of Governments, is "loo old
fashioned for this progressive age?"
His action, and ihn character he as?
cribes to the action of Congress, seem
til indicate that this is his view oi the
situation.

THE NEGIM).-The traveling corres?
pondent of the Now York Times,
writing from Columbia, S. C., says:
"The negro character is likely lo
disappoint strangers, who have been
taught to expect certain nobler quali?
ties of character than are generully
found in the whites. Thenegrois
I a negro; and whoever expects him to
i bo a white man, or to havo the cha
l racier of a white man, is simply igno?
rant of the race, ami is not entitled
to an opinion upon questions touch?
ing tho issues between them."
A HiQBiiT SENSATIONAL REPOUT.
Tho New York correspondent of the
Waterford Mail, under dale of Dc
! comber 3, writes:
"Admiral Tegeilioff, of the Aus?
trian Navy, is now en route for houio,
I with what he believes to be tho body
i of the unfortunate Maximilian. My
I connection with the Mexican agent?
I in this country forbids my ent?rine
j into minutia?, but I can assert thal
; the remains which will be honored by
' Austria oro riot those of tho ill-fateil
scion of the House of Hapsburg, but
of Harnero, :\ noted bandit and gue?
rilla, who, in life, was uot unlike out
1 Maximilian. Tho latter is pining in
aU obscuro dungeon iu Qaeretaro,
i fed with felon's food, and awaiting
j the arrival of welcome death. The
night before his supposed execution,
.Juarez, uncertain of his own success
in seeking tho J 'residency, and per?
haps'unwilling to inbrae his bandi
in royal blood, had tho noble captive
Conveyed by stealth to a secret den,
and substituted in his stead tho ruf
lian Hame ro, hoping, had ho not sue

. bm: I bavobcen in formed that Mr.
'Hood, tlio Treasurer of tho State, has
i been instructed by yon not to poy mo
my salary after the 31st of October.
When I received your "Special
Order No. 183," emnpending me, I
did not suppose you intended to de?
prive me of tho property in pay
uffico. It never occurred to me that,
because I could not conscientiously
carry ont your General Orders as to
I juries,. I was to bo punished by being
deprived of the salary which, in tho
impoverished stnte of tho con ti try, is
tho only means left to me for the sup?
port of my family.
I trust it is only "ecessnry to briug
to your notice the fact that tho Judge
bas a proporty in hie office, anti that,
during his .suspension, ho canuot bo
legally deprived of its emoluments.
As A nave ^2 moa your pul?
poso i? to inflict a personal injury on
one who, I trust, has shown himself
as zealous aud honest in tho dis?
cbarge of Iiis duties ns yon have in
the discharge of yours, I therefore
respectfully submit this question to
your moro matnre consideration, in
tho hopo that, upon investigating the
legal proposition, you will seo you
have unintentionally ?lone mo nu in?
justice. Very respectfully, your obe?
dient servaut,

Kilt: I have the honor tu acknow?
ledge tho receipt of your communica?
tion iu relation to the salary claimed
by you, ns Judge of the Court of
Common Pleas aud General Sessions,
and to state, in reply, that, us your
action involved a serious delay in tho
administration of justice, and im?
posed upon the Slate, iu its impover?
ished condition, additional expenses
for tho maintenance of prisoners, and
for holding special terms of the
Courts in several of tho Districts in
tho Southern Circuit, 1 did not con?
sider it proper or just to add to those
burdens, by authorizing compensa?
tion to be made for services that were
not rendered. Vory respectfully, sir,
your obedieut servant,
ED. lt. S. CANDY,
Ilrbvet Maj. ?.Jen. Commanding.
?Ai.Nwta.ii, January 7, 1W8.
Sm: I reply ?inmediately lo your
note of tho 1th January, just, re?
ceived.
1 did not expect and ?lid not ask,
that yon, a Military Commander,
would consider tho constitutionality
of tho Reconstruction Acts. But 1
did expect that you would point to
tho clause in those Acts which em?
powered you to suspend mo from the
performance of tho duties of 1113
office, and then to deprive me of my
properly iu that office, by ordering
the State Treasurer to withhold the
salary which the State contracted to
pay me when 1 was commissioned
one of her Judges, Yon will remem?
ber, that I nm still 11 Judge of South
Carolina. You have not ventured to
remove me yet, aud if you bad, you
cannot deprive me of my office. You
cannot point to any authority in the
Acts, but excuse your injtistieo and
usurpation by saying, "that as your
action involved 11 serious delay ill the
administration of justice, and im?
posed upon the State, in its im?
poverished condition, additional ex?
penses for tho 'maintenance' of pri?
soners, and for holding special terms
of the courts in several of the Dis?
tricts in tho Southern Circuit, I did
no! consider it proper or just to add
to those burdens by authorizing com?
pensation for services that were not
rendered."
I indignantly repel this slander. I
was in tho actual performance of my
duties, under the laws of the State ol
South Carolina, that had conferred
on me my judicial office, aud to
whom, alone, 1 am accountable.
When you, hy ti high-handed usurpa?
tion of authority, not conferred on
you Ivy any law of Congres-;, or arti
clo of war, suspended ma in Ibo very
effort J was making lo ad ministe]
justice to u suffering people. What
justice was to be administered by such
juries as you had directed to bf
drawn? You know, or should hav(
known, that your order ns to juries,
was not authorized by ouy Act ol
Congre s. You know, or should have
known, that juries, selected as yon
directed, presented the most seriout
impediment to tho administration o'
justice. You know, or should have
known, that my oath of office pre
vented mo from carrying ont vont
order-and yet, as u mero parttznn,
without considering the dignity o:
my position, tho character of my be
loveil Suite, or the responsibility o
your own station, in tho very wanton
ness of power, you put upon mo ac
indignity which was unworthy of th?
great Government you repiesent
and I mnst add, appears to mo nov
to bo not only resentful, but unman
ly. Lei i/uur brother-ojfieers of die ok
amii/ judge.
As a conscientious Judge and f
mau of honor, I could not carry oui
your order without violating my oat!
Of office. ? said so frankly. You
suspende*! me. Iyieldod without a
murmur, aud now, because I have, a
conscience, that will not permit me,
as I think, to violate my oath of
office, with high-handed tyranny, yon
not only deprive me of the dignity of
that office, but rob me of its support,
aud then insultingly toll me tlmt my
"action has involved a serious delay
in the administration of jnstice," for?
getting that it waa your owu unau?
thorized nnd officious interference
with the lawn of the State, that placed
the first und only impediment in tho
way o' justice. With what consist?
ency ei n you talk about the "im?
poverished condition" of tho State,
when only on tho 3d of December
hist yon issued General Orders No.
139, assessiug a tax for tho very
salary you havo directed the Trea?
surer to withhold, und did actually
make au appropriation for its pay?
ment? How does it help tho people
ot an impoverished Stuto to wring
taxes ont of them, which you after?
wards direct to be locked up in the
treasury?
Why trouble yourself about State
burdens, when the people, (t menu
white people, tax-payers,) with singu?
lar unanimity, approve my course,
and sustain me under my present
trials?
No, sir, I am not deceived, nor is
the country, by this mere subterfuge.
You cover this bold and bad attempt
to destroy the independence ot thu
judiciary, at tho same time that you
make your effort to break down tho
great bulwark of liberty-the trial In/
jun/-with a very ilimsy veil.
? com mend you to the perusal of
Genend Hancock's Special Order No.
203, to show you what a patriotic
officer can do. whose desire is to heal
tho wounds of u prostrate und bleed?
ing conn try.
But I do not complain. My only
purpose now is to repel your unjust
und cruel aspersion, and to put on
record my protest against your mon?
strous tvranuy.
I will leave my native State to
morrow, in deep sorrow and despon?
dency, to seek a support for my wife
and children, in hospitable Georgia,
where I nm assured of a hearty wel?
come. Thanh God, in m J temporary
exile-for I nm coming back when
you go-1 will bc sustained by thc
consciousness of having done my
duty, and tho full confidence that
tho people, the great judges in this
ease, will soon do justice to you and
tome. Very respect tully, sir, your
obedient servan!.

THE DISCOVERIES IN JBKVSAI^EM.
Tho London Times publishes an in?
teresting lotter in regard to the dis?
coveries iu progress nt Jerusnlem,
from which we extract the following:
The colossal foundations of th??
(emilie wall, which are ".stones of ton
cubits and stones of eight cubits,"
laid by Solomon or his successors on
the throne, uro now being laid bare
ut the enormous depth of ninety feet
and moro beneath the present sur?
face. The bridge that once spanned
the ravine between the palace on
Zion and tho temple on Moriah is
now proved to have been upwards of
150 feet high. If this be, us it seems,
the ascent to the house of the Lord
which Solomon showed to tho Queen
of Sheba, we cannot wonder that, on
seeing it, there was no spirit in her.
The pinnacle of the temple, on which
tho tempter placed tho Saviour, has
just been uncovered to the base, und
is found still to havo an elevation of
130 feet. Tho statement of Josephus
is, therefore, no exaggeration: "If
any one looked from the battlements
into the valley, ho would be giddy,
while his .sight could not roach to
such un immense depth."
Sections of tho ancient wall of
Ophel havo boen exhumed, showing
that, us Josephus says, it was joined
to the South-east augie of the templo.
Aqueducts, cisterns, rock-hewn chan?
nels and passages have also been dis?
covered within and around the harem,
throwing now light on the buildings,
the arrangements and tho services of
the temple.
Tho groat work of a completo ex?
ploration of ancient Jerusalem is thus
fairly and auspiciously commenced.
Tho opportune visit of tho Sultan
and grund vizier to this country, and
tho representations made to tho lat?
ter by thu Archbishop of York, fol?
lowed ii]? as they have beeu by the
energy, the wisdom and tho tact of
Lieutenant Warren and his admirable
stuff, hayo smoothed down Moslem
prejudice, removed local opposition,
und thus brought about opportuni?
ties for excavation uud exploration,
such ns never occurred before; and,
besides, largo numbers of Arab labor*
ers have been trained to the work,
and aro eager to bo employed, and
th<? exact points for successful ex?
ploration uro now well known.
The Morning ?Star, a new paper,
made its nppeurunco in New York
on Monday. It is a successor of the
Sun, which Mr. Dana has purchased.
Tho Star says tho transfer of the Sun
to that gentleman is a political
schomo, intended to radicalizo the
working mon of that city, and the
public aro cautioned against it ac?
cordingly.
DEDICATION OF ST. FETCH'S ROMAN
CATHOLIC (COI?OUED) CHUKCH.-Tlie
ceremony of the dedication of St.
Peter's Romkn CjUholio Church, in?
tended for tho especial accommoda?

known as tho Wentworth street Syna?
gogue, is situated on tho North side
of Wentworth street, between Meet?
ing ami Anson, and has been titted
np with pews, and otherwise altered,
so as to adapt it to its new use.
Cottou is raised in many parts of
Italy, mid tho value of the product of
late years bas equaled ?12,000,000
annually. This orop is all used ut
homo, but in addition, largo quanti?
ties aro imported chiefly from Ame?
rica, Uenoa being the priucipal
market. Th ero uro 200 cotton facto?

the provinces iu which tho spinning
