The Rcwnrd of Labor In thc South.
We said, yesterday, that labor is better
remunerated in the Southern States than
anywhere else in the world. Wo think
the proposition correct. We do not
speak ot* the rate of wages alone, but
propose to include all tho advantages
that the laborer here enjoys. Of course,
we mean labor that is labor. Tho saun?
terer and the shirk does poor work, and
get? poor reward, here as well as every?
where else. But the energetic and faith?
ful laborer has a rare chance. We know
a colored man, with a wife and three
children, who last year supported his
family, and laid by 61,000, by farm la?
bor. We know another, with live chil?
dren, none of them large enough to ren?
der much of any valuable assistance, who
lived well and saved $300, nud his chance
was not a very favorable oue, as the land
which he worked did not yield more than
a quarter of a bale to tho acre. This
year he will do better, aud will probably
clear S500, besides having corn and pork
enough to curry him through tho nest
year. Let us see how this is done. Any
good, reliable man can get all thc land
ho can work upon shares-that is, mules,
farming implements and lands will be
furnished him, and he will get half of
the crop. He eau tend twenty or twenty
five acres, and have his gardon and
sweet potato patch besides. Suppose he
works Arkansas land or somo of the best
Mississippi. He ought to make ten
bales of co;'on. half of which is his, and
all the corn he needs. If he has a family
to assist him, he can do projiortionatoly
more. He has his rent and fuel free.
By ordinary management and economy,
he can live comfortably and save from
$200 to 8500 a year easily. The whole
cotton crop is estimated this year at
2,000,000 bales. The price promises tc
be high, so that we may calculate that
the crop will be worth 8200,000,000.
Suppose that this crop was nil raised OD
shares-and tho demand for labor ii
such that the most of planters are glad
to make sock arrangements-there would
be SIOO.000,000 to divide among the la?
borers. But this is only about one-hall
of what they would earn if they were in
dustrious, because the corn and otbei
crops, as well as their vegetables ant"
fruit, would be worth almost as niucl
more to them. The climnte is such thal
they can easily make themselves com
fortable all the year rouud. Industry,
intelligence and economy would sooi
make the laboring population here th?
most comfortable and independent oi
the face of the earth. The savings of ?
few years, rightly managed, would KOOI
enable each laborer to become his owi
employer, for laud is abundant an;
cheap. Soon the mau eau get n littl
tract, and have n permanent home fo
bis family, where comfort would alway
be present, and where luxury nvd eic
gance would add to their enjoyment
sooner or later, in sufficient degree.
The laborer does not know what
capital he possesses. Ho can soon at
quire at least 100 acres of laud, and the
his possessions steadily increase b
accretion. He will have cows and oxen
horses and mules, sheep and swiue an
poultry, and they will increase so as t
add to his wealth moro rapidly than tb
highest rate of iuterest would yield. Lc
him become au intelligent aud skillfi
farmer, and his laud will grow better an
more productive year by year, till ol
age overtakes him surrounded wit
plenty and affluence. There is so niue
excellent land yet unopened; it is t
cheap and the staples produced so valui
ble and in such demnud, that tho abilit
to labor well must, for a long time, be
valuable possession to any man. Indu
try is the best aid of virtuo and intel)
gence. The industrious man is soldo
a vicious man, and he need not be s
ignorant mau. Labor is the chief ham
maid of knowledge, for the mind
healthy and vigorous in a sound ai
vigorous body. Lot the free schoc
everywhere give such education as w
prepare the mind and give a taste f
learning, and the leisure hours fro
labor are apt to bo well employed
storing tho mind with knowledge. Bu
?itt, "the learned blacksmith," acquit
fifty languages while laboring daily
the* forge. Samuel "Drew, sometim
called the English Plato, wrote bis Cv.
brated treatise ou immorality and rest
rection on his shoo maker's bench, usi;
his cutting-board for a desk. We ha
kuown many a New Euglnnd boy pura
a regular course of study while labori
regularly at farm work. The writer
this learned tho Greek verb during
haying season, when eighteen years o
while mowing ns handsome il swath
any of his father's laborers, and strivi
with them for the mastery in pitchi
tho hay most rapidly. Tu pto was w
mowed and raked and pitched iutu
brain in all its variations, and has nc
departed, as it might have done if fed
him with a silver spoon. Labor, ind
try, ccouomy aud virtuo are what l
South now needs to make her prosp
ous and happy. If she has these, :
politics will need very littlo attention.

EionT MURDERS BY A MAN TWENTY
TWO YEARS OLD.- Tbe Knoxville (Tenn.)
Press gives n detailed account of ii mur?
der w'?ch lately ocourred in Fentress
County, Tennessee, tho capturo of thc
murderer, nud tho testimony against
him:
"On tho 20th of last November, a citi?
zen of Feutrcsa Couuty went to tho
house of old Mrs. Galloway, and found
tho old lady, her daughter and two grand?
children lying upon tho floor, with their
heads split open with an axe, und too j
floor deluged with blood and brains. No ,
certain clue could be found. One of tho !
children, a boy, seven years of age,
showed signa of life, and was removed
to a neighbor's house. Two days after?
wards tho little fellow showed signs of
consciousness, and was asked, 'Who had
done it?' His reply was 'Cal.' This in?
formation, connected with other circnni
Rtancos, directed suspicion to Calvin
Liogstou, who lind about that time fled!
to his home ou Green River, in Ken- '
tucky.
"He was pursued, captured and 1
brought back to Fentress County, by
which time tho little boy, who seemed to
have been preserved by a special Provi?
dence, was so nearby recovered ns to give
a corn-ot ?cco::nt of the whole bloody
tale. From his testimony it appears
that Logston came to the lions'; with 1
two women, his aunts, named Brown,
and demanded of -Granny' her momy.
with threats of a presented pistol.
Failing to get any, he put up his pis- ?
j toi and seized an axe he found iu tho '.
house and struck the old lady on the
head, and then served the yonng woman |
and a four-year old boy in tho same mau- ?
uer. One of the women then seized n j
shovel and dealt the little witucss a blow, '
which is the last thing be recollects.
"Upon Hie return of the prisoner to
Fentress County, the citizens erected an j
impromptu gallows for his accommoda- j
tion, but by Ibo efforts of Judge Houk,
Judge Lynch yielded jurisdiction. Fail- j
ing to get a jury in that county, the!
Ycuuc wus changed to Scott County, j
where, after a long and laborious trial, '
tho verdict bas just been rendered of'
I 'guilty of murder in the first degree, {
I without any mitigating circumstances,' j
and sentence of death pronounced by !
Judge Honk, to take effect on the 18th '
of October, proximo. An appeal was
taken to the Supremo Court, mid the,
prisoner and his guard arrived bore yes?
terday. Although tho prisoner is only
twenty-two years of ago, he freely con?
fesses to eight murders."

Two MOKE DIABOLICAL OUTRAGES nv
NEGROES.-Information wus received
herc yesterday that two white girls, aged .
respectively fifteen ami thirteen years, i
daughters of a highly respectable citizen
of Itockbridge County, whoso name we
withhold for thu prescht, was most Inn
tally outraged on Friday list by two
! black fiends, the oldest of whom is not ,
i more than sixteen years and the young
{ cst bat about fifteen. 'Wc were unable
to gather the full particulars of these:
fiendish deeds, but from what wo omi j
learn it appears that the villains waylaid '
their victims not far from thc house of 1
their parents, and accomplished their:
I atrocious purpose. Ono of the scoun- j
drels was captured Sunday movniug and
lodged in jail in Lexingt >n. The otl:er
was still at large Sunday evening, but
the people of the entire neighborhood in
which the outrages were perpetrated are
I scouring the country in search of him,
1 nud ho has probably been arrested by
j this time. - Lynchburg ( Vu.) AV?r*.
A GIRL SHOT AND KILLED.-On Sa?
turday last, whilst Mr. John Risk, who
lives on the farm of Mr. Samuel X. Kerr,
near Summerdean, in this County, was
handling his gun, it was accidentally dis
i charged, and shot his daughter, about
j twenty years of age, in the head- killing
j lier almost instantly. This was tho only
I child he had living-his only sor. being
? shot and killed during tbe war.

PAINLESS DIGESTION-"No man,"
Bays Bir Astley Cooper, "ought to know by hU
sensations that he has a stomach." In oilier
words, when digestion ia perfect there tami
thor pain nor uneasiness in thc region where
it takes jilaco. Nausea, waut of appetite,
flatulency, oppression after eating, shooting
pains ill thc epigoetrinm, a Hushing of the face
nt meal times, and a furred tongue in the
morning, ari- among the direct symptoms cf
indigestion. Constipation, biliousness, head?
ache, nervous irritability, physical weakness
and low spirits are its almost invariable ac?
companiments. All these indications of iii - ;
' i;psi.\, whether immediate or secondary, ari
usually aggravated by hot weather.
Tho close of summer is, therefore, the sea?
son when the victim cf dyspepsia most urgent- ?
ly needs a tonic and regulating medicine. Of
course, every invalid has many advisers. One
friend recommends one drug, another another;
?int fu a multitude of counsellors there is not
always safety. Tiic STANDARD B EM EDY OF TUE

Tike ab ive Company was organized in lSfiG,
iii consequence of tho wholesale forfeiture of
Southern policies by Northern companies. The j
unparalleled success ol the enterprise has
forced several of these companies to restore j
their Southern policies, from thc fact that they i
could not operate in our midst without the np- j
pearancc of honesty.
We keep all our moory at home lo build up (
our impoverished country- every dollar of
premium being safely invested in tho State j
from which it is derive 1. The institution is j
purely Southern, and hem " should appeal I
with great force to tho patriotism and sympa
thy of every Southern heart.
"Tis not our Milpose to make war on other
companies, but to exhibit tbe special advan?
tages offered by this purely Southern Compa- '
ny-founded on patriotism and eolid wealth, j
I It* ratio of assets to liabilities-thc true test 1
of a company's strength, is second to nono on j
j this continent- being nearly 300 to ICO.
j Whenever and wherever we have presented
I the claims of this Company, it has not only I
I enlisted thc sympathies of our people, but bas '
also secured their hearty co-operation. Wei
'luve secured 500 policies in S?st h Carolina
