Friday Merning, Aagnst feO, 1869. A Wonl to the Wine. The Charleston Nines, ot tho 18th, in considering the question, f'ifoto Shall ive 'Redeem the Stale," oontr&sts th? views of the Edgefield Advertiser with those of the Winniiboro Nenes-the former pro? posing the immediate putting of the I Democracy upon a war footing, and the I?J^^^TOeating a "conservative^ ' itkn filet 1 The Cheleston Nei? admits the great importance of our carrying the ejections in 1870, but dissents frpm the policy, of the Winnsboro Netos-as being hazardous and of very questionable pro I prietys The News fnrtherjremarks, that thorn appears to he some doubt among the conservative people in this State as to vrhat "plan of battle" will most cer? tainly be successful io 18T0. Tho interest taken in this aub j oct of I redeeming the State from the rule that now prevails* we are glad to see. That interest can scarcely be too absorbing, nor eau ii too soon engage the mind of tho patriot in South Carolina. Bul in 'this opinion we are emphatic that it ; is premature now to discuss "the plan of battle. " The intelligent people o ? Sou th Carolina are united in political sentiment, nnd will adhere to those political con? victions which they entertain, except so far as these convictions may be modified by events and circumstances beyond 'r control. The ?ame of politics, o&gn "it should eter be toned with pt?njt?n?e, is a practical one. At all lines, it is unwise, in the matter of ?es, to dovelop a line of policy too' far in advance of the period when tho j battle ia to bo fought. At this timo in South Carolina, it is especially unwise to lay down now a course of action to be adhered to in the future. The general political principles that should bc upheld in our Staten-these may be put forth in season and out of season; but os to the details of political management? we would throw out to our friends this caution that this subject be reserved for the de? velopments of tho futuro-at least-so far 'as the details of it are concerned. The In*comlng Cotton Crop. There is every prospect this year of a large cotton orop. In the year 1859-60 the year before the war-the cotton crop of the United States amounted to 5,196, 944 bales, of 400 pounds each. Last year, it amounted to 2,430,893. This year, it will probably reach 2,500,000 bales. What, now, ia the prospect of high prices being realized? We think good. The cotton interests of Europe and America alone require, it is esti? mated, an annual supply of over 6,000,000 I of bales; whereas the present available production of the world will not, this year, amount to 5,000,000 bales. The following estimate has been mado for this year's cotton crop: East India.j. 1,500,000 bales Egypt. 230,000 Turkey. Levant, &c. 12,500 Brazil, Peru and West India. 707,500 I United States.2, GOO, 000 I All other sources. 50,000 Making. 5,000,000 bales Now, if the world's consumption amount to 6,000,000 bales, we have an apparent deficit in supply in the raw material of 1,000,000 bales at the end of the present year. If these figures be cor? rect-and DeBotf's Review is our au? thority-there is every probability of the present high crop of ootton being maintained. Let this exhibit stimulate tho energies of cotton producers. Let the farmer work on industriously until his crop bas been gathered, and in secur? ing his own interests, he will be advanc? ing the interests of the public. A Georgia paper, v, fh little taste and less judgment, sneers ut South Carolina's devotion to cotton-making, at the ex? pense of political activity. Let us say to our ootemporary that, in the present condition of our State and her people, we deem it a pious task to whiten some fields with cotton and to make others gladden the sight with corn and wheat ind oats and rye. The intelligence, Iworth and substance of Georgia now control the ballot; but here, in South karolina, those elements will reach tho |goal that Georgia has already won, only ry passing through work-shops, and cot >n and corn fields. Industrial develop? ment at once causes and sustains right? ful political adjustment. Upon tho foundation of our ? industries, let the implo of our restored liberties rest >road, solid and majestic. The New'York Democrat-Pomeroy iditor-announces tho beginning of vo? lume 2 under the fairest auspices, andnn tounces itself brimful of hope and pluck md determination. It intends to suc? ceed.

CUBAN PBOSPBCTS.-The latest advices from Cuba seem highly favorable to the revolutionists In General Jordan, the ex-Confederate, they haro a good organ? izer, if not a good field general. The folio wi cg statistics may be found inte? resting: In 1862, the Spanish popula? tion, inclusivo of tho army, was 150,000; Cuban whites, 750,000; negro population, 600,000.

JAMES BIVINGS.-Dr. Bidings died at his home near Crawford villo in-thia District,- on the 16th inst., In tho eigthy-third year of his age. He had boen in feeble health for several years, which rendered him unable to engage in the active duties of life. He came to this Distriot from North Caro? lina, and was chosen agent of theBiviugs ville Manufacturing Company, in -which capacity ho acted for several years. After he withdrew from this company bo built a cotton factory on Chinqnepin Creek, a milo and a half from this place. This enterprise be abandoned, and erected tho Crawfordville Cotton Factory on Tyger River, near where bo died. He did more than any other individual to build up and promote the manufactur? ing interests of our District. Ho pos? sessed a remarkable foresight and a dis? criminating judgment.

Press copies of old letters of manu? script can bo taken, it is said, by press? ing the pages on the dampened paper in the usual way, and then applying tho vapor of ammonia. Although no result may appear to follow the first operation, we are assured that after the second the letters will appear distinctly on the dampened paper. Another method con? sists in dampening the manuscript with a solution of sugar, honey, or mncila genous matter, and then applying tho dampened paper as heretofore. In this oase the sugar is applied to the paper in? stead of being mixed previously in the ink, os is done in one form or other with ordinary copying inks. "Everything has its use," said a phi? losophical professor to his class. "Of what use is a drunkard's fiery red nose?" asked one of the pupils. "It's a light? house," answered thb prof??por, "to warn us of the little water that passes underneath it, and reminds us of tho shoals of appetite on which we might otherwise bo wrecked." A BEAU KILLED. --A largo bear was killed on Sunday, the 8th instant, about six miles from Conwayboro, by Jackson Fowler, Everett Watts, and others. The Horry Neus says ho had been killing hogs ia tho neighborhood, and was routed up, and all the dogs in the vicini? ty put after him. The chaso is reported as a fine one. The beor weighed 116 pounds net weight. A Washington letter says: "Nearly a hundred small post offices in various sec? tions of the country, mostly Southern, however, have been discontinued in con? sequence of the negligence of the post? masters to make returns, thereby allowing their names to go on the black list of the Sixth Auditor's office." ALASKA.-This Territory cost the United States over $7,000,000. It is now pronounced to bo of no value except for seal fisheries, and these are in possession of a singlo company. Two companies of "boys in bluo" remain to uphold the stars aud stripes; tho rest is rheumatism and dismal snow. On Sundtiy night last, in Salisbury, N. C., tho stablos of the Mansion House were consumed by fire. Two horses, ono bolouging to tho Express Company, wero burned. Tho stables of Mr. Buis were also destroyed. Philadelphia is "death" on whiskey in various ways. She has recently con? sumed several million drams of it by fire, and since then she has given up nearly 8,00 ) gallons to revenue officials, who say thc taxes were not paid. Tho Deputy Sheriff of Tazewell Coun? ty, Illinois, was recently killed while trying to arrest horse thieves. Tho leader of tho thieves was token from the County iuil on Sunday by a mob and lynohed.

One point upon whioh theso rumors have it that an agreement was arrived at is mentioned as being the relation of the State and thq church, and that this agreement was to the effect that the representatives in tho Council of their chnroh in this conn* try will urge for general adoption the American system of completo severance of the church from tho State, restoring to it full liberty of motion untrammeled by the political power of the country, and basing it upon the voluntary adhe? sion of its followers, at the samo time renouncing all active interference with the political administration of govern? ment. Should these rumors bo founded in foot, the American prelates may exer? cise a healthy influence upon thc future of tho Catholic world. PorrjiiAB STATISTICS OF ROME.-The ecclesiastical authorities of Ko jae have just published a census for the present year. These statistics show that the regular clergy is composed of 2,265 por 80U8, thus divided: Cardinals, 32; bishops, 50; priests and clerks," 1,366; and students at the ecclesiastical Col? leges, 841 ; the religious . communities count 5,215 souls, 2,959 mon and 2,256 womon; tho lay population amounts to 197,198; soldiers in garrison, 10,207; prisoners under sentence, 328; Protest? ants, 637; and Jews, 2,682; making a total of 220,532, or an increase of 3,151 over the year 1868. The number of car? dinals residing in the Eternal City hos remained nearly tho samo during ten years, never having been below 29, nor above 34; at present it is 32. Thc same remark does not apply to tho bishops, who have never been so few. In 1864 they counted 40, at this moment they are no more than 26. Priests and regular clerks have also diminished during the lost decennial period, the number never being so low. In 1864 it was 1,504; at present it is 1,366. On tho other hand, the members of religious communities have augmented: In 1860, the males were 2,390, and tho females 2,031. The progression has been constant, and the figures now aro 2,959 and 2,256, This increase is explained by the confiscation of the Church property in Italy, and the expulsion of the monks and nuns from their monasteries and convents, many of them having sought an asylum in liofo.-London Times. MY WIFE.-Observe with what love and .respect the good man and worthy husband speaks ol that dear or eat uro whom God has given him for a compa? nion through life. Note his actions and observe his better half, and you will see that lier image is reflected in him. I care not how great a man ho may be; I care not how austero and strong-minded ho may be; so that ho loves her. Her influence is felt every day, and her loving words and feminine dependence exerts a power within him whioh other? wise might have slumbered unknown and forgotten. In the language of Bul? wer, "her image glossed in his soul, lures him on to those inspiring toils by whioh man masters men." Our greatest s'atesmen, our greatest heroes, all attri? bute their success in life to tho potent influence of eitber a wife or a mother's love. Man must have something to love, something to stimulate bim and raise him from that state of thraldom in which tho cares and anxieties of an every-day life usually plunge him. What friend can take a wife's place; who but sho can administer consolation which is ever free from tho suspicions, tho hope of inUrestedness, other than that of a holy desire and deep anxiety to make you happy ? Lot all tho world forsake and abandon you; lot trials come upon you and calamities befall you, yet in her presence and loving affection you may altvays find a harbinger of love, truth and devotion. Mon havo a yearn? ing for disinterested lovo. Once con? vince a man that he is beloved for him? self alone, independent of his wealth, his riches and his station, or any of the many advantagesx>f which ho may be possess? ed-let him see, I etty, that he is loved for himself, and you make him your slave for life. Such a man, blessed with a noblo woman for his wife, is capable of performing things that would discourage him had he not some one to offer him thoso little words of consolation which lighten tho burdens of life. GOOD ADVICE.-At a recent marriage of a daughter of Joseph Josi i ns, Esq., of Poultnoy, Vt., the following advice was haded to tho bride by her father, ac? companied by many greenbacks. We recommend its prayerful perusal and re? membrance by newly married couples. They are truly "words of wisdom," and deserving to be framed in every house? hold in tho land. 1. Never talk at but to each other. 2. Never both maintain unger at thc samo time. 3. Never speak loud or boisterously to each other. 4. Never reproach each other in pre? sence of others. 5. Never find fault or fret about what cannot bo helped. 6. Never repeat an order or request when understood. 7. Never make a remark at other's ex? pense. 8. Neglect everybody rather than each other. 9. Love the Lord and serve Him faith? fully all the days of thy life.

He furthermore con? tends that ho was not indicted-that it was merely a proliminary examination. Tho communication being very lengthy and somewhat personal-by implication or insinuation-in its nature, we decline publishing it. TUE PIEDMONT LITE INSURANCE COM? PANY.-Speaking of this Southern com? pany, (of which Captain Lcapbart is the agent in this city,) the Edgefield Adver? tiser says : "Wo have received, and will publish iu our next issue, a large advertisement concerning this reliable and trustworthy Southern Lifo Insurance Company, It is established on n firm basis, und is un? der tho control of honorable and high toned gentlemen-men who delight in doing good, aud who enjoy tho confi? dence and respect of all with whom they are acquainted. To persons who aro thinking bf insuring their lives, (and every man ought to do so forthwith,) we commend tho 'Piedmont Lifo Insurance Company.' There is no botter company North or South. In November, 1867, this company commenced activo opera? tions. It was organized under circum? stances of extreme discouragement. The State of Virginia was laboring under sevore political disabilities, and painfully awaiting the solution of the vexed pro? blem of 'reconstruction.' Its people wore struggling against tho embarrass? ments of poverty and sustaining tho weight of" heavy trial. Its soil had been upheaved with ramparts "and furrowed with ditches. Tho disastrous , effects of protractod conflict wore everywhere evi? dent. In contrast with afield of so little appuient promise for thc establishment of a local life insurance company was the extraordinary vigor with which the flour? ishing companies of tho States, both East and West, whose growth in finan? cial strength and population was com? paratively undisturbed by the war, had been pushed onward to the fullness of prosperity. These, beneficent institu? tions, unrestricted in ;their good work by Stato lines, offered the arm of protection to tho people of Virginia. There was a feeling abroad at this time that Virginia was a sort of ditico-economic Nazareth out of whiol o good, financially speak? ing, could come. We remember how, when it was announced that a life com? pany bsd been organized in Virginia, a New York paper sneered at the effort, and talked as if New York alone were the centre of all that is good, or great, or worth aspiring to. Strange to say, this prejudice was largely shared by Virgin? ians, and many of them, while insuring in Northern companies, freely expressed distrust of Southern institutions for a similar purpose, aud deprecation of all attempts to uprear them upon a firm and enduring basis. "In the face of such practical difficul? ties and perplexities, ordinary men would "nave shrunk from tho promotion of so doubtful a scheme. But Major Carrington, tho chief engineer, is no or? dinary man, as the result has proved. Whilo th enterprise was in its prelimi? nary and experimental stage, tho homo office was stationed in an interior town, remote from tho great centres of trade, iu order to keep expenses at tho lowest mark. What, to-day, would bo unwise economy, was in the then depressed con? dition of tho State a measure of pru? dence. In the course of a few months, when skeptics were convinced that fail? ure was not included in tho estimates of its projectors, and when tho citizens of the State began at least measurably to recover from the business prostration into which they had been plunged, thc homo office was transferred to tho city of Richmond. This was iii .September, 1868. Up to that timo the company had issued 1,000 policies. Sinco then the number issued is 3,350-making in all 1,350, a rate of progress which, in view of tho obstacles to be surmounted, is nnprccedented, and, in point of fact, has no equal in tho early history of tho older companies. In tho briof period of its career tho assets have mounted up to tho handsome sum of 8500,000. Tho dividend, as calculated by the actuary, Mr. D. P. Tackler, on lifo policies, on the 1st of April, was forty por cent. The losses paid to dato amount to some? thing over 50,000, and these losses have beon paid promptly in overy instance. This substantial record speaks for itsolf; it is tho simple logic of figures; it re? ven?s clear-sighted management, labo? rious industry, and most commendable ouergy on tho part of officers and agents. Tho child is becoming a man and taking his iilaco among men. Tho acorn is now a tree, whoso over-arching branches will continuo to spread ?dike through tho sun-shino and tho storm of coming cen? turies. Rejoicing in its strength und re resisting tho elements of decay, it will confer its blossings and benefits upon uncounted households, and supply 'the place of fame' and oulogy* to its pro? jectors long after tho mossy marbles that press their remains shall have faded into indistinguishable dust."
