'H-... .?r a/*. ^ 4 ,.,---!-~ Toesday Morning, November 23.1869. ?h. T??? RUlng. All over tho South we hot? the ovi d-rea of renewed prosperity. In Ma? ry lend, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama and Missis? sippi, agricultural fairs hare .been held, and the resolte, morn), political and in? dustrial, m nat be highly advantageous. The tide is rising, ?nd when it does fairly set in, thc "apples" that "swim" now will .jrim no longer, and much that is now floating on the surface of the political Wifiiers will sink to its native mud. Tho abnormal must yield to tho normal; the i?iogi?aii to tho logical; the nnnntnral to the natural. l , - . . , < " ,_ Otntoil Hampton's Address. We conclude to-day the nd dr esa of our townsman, Gen. bampton. The points made by Gen. Hampton are, in. our opinion, well taken. In fact, they are such views as we have pronounced na the views, wise and practical, end adapted to the hour. Gen. H. first presents a piotoro of what the South was jost after the smoko of war had passed away. He next pictures her as she stands to-day her isdssiries reviving and her prosperity roturning. Alluding to tho grand re? sources pf our Southern country, he then suggests the means of their devel? opment. The first that he suggests is white immigration, and like ourselves having no fondness for, the Mongolian, he indicates his preference for tho Euro? pean immigrant aid for the substantial artisans, mechanics, manufacturers and farmers of the North, Gen. H. next suggests as a mean i of bringing out our whole strength, tho diversifying ot our pursuits. In this connection the speaker very wisely urges tho young..men of tho South to seek others-invocations than those offered by tho learned-.professions, and he advises tin ra to remember that enduring honor ia cube won in tho fields of agriculture and tho mechanic arts; and hero Gen. II. turns aside to urge with groat earnestness tho establishment of agricultural schools und colleges in the Southern States. Tn the next place, Gen. Hampton considers tho labor by which We cultivate our lands and the mode of their cultivation. Here he urges the plain and wise policy of making tko most of the negro labor in our midst. He concurs with us in the plau of im? proving and utilizing this labor, and oi seekingso to direct and control it, as to make it useful to the South uud promo? tive- of tho negro's welfare. As to the mode of cultivating our lands, ho sug? gests the adoption iu the South of all the modern appliances and improve? ments. In couclubion, Gen. Hampton, as wac meat, paid a glowing tribute to the men of tho late war. Ho reminded them ol tho time when together they stood upon the red fields of war, and now that the war was over, he reminded them of thc dutiu8 of peace, and ns they fought no? bly, so now he would couusel them tc work bravely for the regeneration ol their land. As we havo before said, Gen. Hampton's address is a well-con oeived one, and characterized by elegance of language and elevation of tone. It it true,, that no new or novel views are ela borated, but he gives expression to thoat plain and praotical propositions whicl discreet men generally will adopt anc approve. As for ourselves, we cordiullj commend Gen. Hampton's views to oui people, and we are gratified to find hil influential name linked with a policy tba has commended itself to our own judg ment. A special despatch to the Churlestoi Courier, dated Columbia, November 21 says: The Blue Kidgo Railroad Compan; have passed a resolution, ordering tin Directors to annul thc late contract wi tl Cresswell A Co, There ts a strong feel ing amongst a largo number of the mern bers ot the Legislature against the COOK? deration at this session of any bill askinf aid for railroads. It is also reported tba tho Governor will recommend tho Legia laturo to refuse any aid to railroads. The Governor's message will not bi sent in before Weduesday. It will ahov over 81,000,000 paid into tho State Tren sury for taxes, and $2,022,690 paid b; our citizens into tho Federal Treasury a internal revenue. Ho will recommem that the $2,700.000 iu railroad bouda now in tho State Treasury, be held us i sinking fand, and ultimately used in li quidation of the State debt. Ho wil dwell, also, at length ou tho labor qnes lion, commerce', manufactures, agrien! turi, fisheries, and general resources o the State. Tho Land Commissioner's report wi! show over 10,000 acres, purchased him* tho 20t.h of September. It is asserted by prominent radical hore, that South Carolina bonds will b nearly at par within i-ixly days. -*'i?Vj> ;\ An entire family, nu mho ring ton pei sons, living ut Saint Andre lo Orazierc Frunce, was recently poisoned by eutiti. poisonous mushrooms.

Arriving under the immense de? pot, which probably would stand, com? fortably, 10,000 people, I had to edge myself along' to the streot and theuoe to the Brown House, where as I approached, valise in hand, the proprietor cried ont, "no room, air." What, said I, no chanco for a bedjmd something to eat. "No," s ? id he, ' 'not even room for yon to atand upon." Chance favored me, however, for Mr. Tozer, of Columbia, recognized me, and, said ho, "come to my room, I'll take oare of you." Thither we went, and, much to my surprise, as well as his astonishment, we found eleven cots in the room and only sixteen occupants already in them, though it waa about 7 o'clock p. m. Nothing daunted, how? ever, he and I, after supper, secured a bed for myself and friend, where friend and I "spooned" together till morning, always being oautious, during tho night, to wake each other up when wo wished to torn over, for fear of pushing the sleeping one out of bed. Next morning I was congratulated by my acquaintances for securing such comfortable quarters. I have thus particularized, to enable you to conceive of tho crowd. The morning of. the afternoon I arrived in Macon, General Hampton, the orator of tho occasion, had roached the city, and, to givo you another idea about tho Macon Fair, I will simply say the Gene? ral and party had to wander hither and thither in search of quarters until a short while before he was informed at what hour he was expected to deliver his ora? tion. Of this speech I need not speak; you will,doubtless, publish it, and when your readers are perusing its last half column, let them imagino themselves in tho presence of thousands of heroes who really loved the orator, and calmly look ioto the faces of those tried veterans and see 'the teats trickling freely down their checks, and they will li a vu some appre? ciation of its effect. General Hampton is as much'beloved in Georgia as ho is iu South Carolina, because thousands of noble Georgians survive who have tested the material whereof bo is made. Next morning, sun-rise found me at tho breakfast table, where the jam was more than great. A few more minutes and oil' a party of \is start for tho Fair Grounds, four miles distant by railroad, or three miles by wagon road. As tho grounds aro approached, the sight becomes truly impressive. There stands A ninguificeut two-story brick building, sixty feet wide and three hundred and fifty long, built for a laboratory by the Confederate Government, with wing-? and adjuncts around about ii, and on every side are long rows of horse and cattle stalls, marquees as large as Robinson's circus tent, rows of wall-tents, enclosures of ull sorts, a wide and well rolled race track of a mile, and in tho midst of all, a hip? podrome, capable of scaling com? fortably naven thousand people. We entet the gate, (for, remember, this Fail ground which, from first to last, perhaps 100,000 people visited during the week, had but one gate for pedestrians,) and ascend the steps lending to the immetisc hall up Htairs; WO perambulate the build? ing, seeing here, there und everywhere, one jumbled, tumbled, confused collec? tion of articles of every variety, from n mammoth piano to u miniature needle case, including sewing machines, do? mestic wines, sides of leather, bundle: of fruit-trees, jars of preserves, et id, Sec., "too numerous to mention." Wt walked and looked, and looked anti walked, and came out satisfied, that o committee on any articles in that room could do no more. Down stairs we enter among tho gins and count a dozen varieties on bund, and plows innumerable, straw cutters bj the Ecore, guano by tho ton, Yankee tricks by the car load, cotton planter.1 without unrulier, seed drills enough tc sow the groin crop of South Carolina ii a duy, and a drummer, with his tongue hung in tho middle, crying aloud the ad vantages of his particular "machine,' und while euch accorded to his com petitor something commendable, everj man vowed bis was tho best. Ono little Yank read aloud a private letter of Mr J. A. Seddon, extolling his fertilizer, am said he, "every Southerner ought te know who Jeemes A. Seeldon is," while ou the wall behind him wero placard?e circulars, giving analyses of this f?rtil izer, and signed "Lee, Seddon 6t Co. Agents" The clap trap, Yankeeism o that Bedlam was worth riding a day'i journey to see and hear. All along, ai you ramble through thisjlower story, yoi occasionally pass a small room fitted uj as HU eating room or saloon, of which J will speak in detail hereafter. Out at tho opposite end wo go, ant there is a iorty-horso engine, drivin? probably two hundred feet of shafting from whose piillicu run bands to everj val illy of machinery, from a hundred .saw gin to a six-inch circular saw. iieyom tliii engine stands n row of sugar milli grinding cano ?iud boiling syrup, am away off iu another part of tho field an Ibo "Southern Sorghum Works;" thei comes a colton press and again au engine yonder the little beauly of lt. Tozer, o Columbia, is whirling away, driving i noodle gin; and then i ornes again a lon; row of presses-Utley, Brooks, Nisbet etc., ete., inure than a dozen in number Around the track fly the rapid trotter and pacers; ove? h?i* aro again hundred of plows, some of them ou four wheel and carrying eight furrows ut a time thou again wo are under a large pavilioi anel ahjongst th? boggles1 and gantr c-xks; and anotljer_r^avilion und there la' of cotton bags; andy enongh wagons to regiment wagon train n+fr thpp required no Away down yonder, quarter of ? milo ff,,arG abonicighty cow atolls, with naif dozen or more pretty Hereford* from altimore; a few Ano Br ab mitt yearlings of Mr. Peters, with somo of his old cows that he evidently wanted to get rid of, and a few more gradea, belongiug in Macon. Aero** the field again we go for more than half a mi!t> and see the one hundred and fifty or two hundred stalls, about half filled with a few superior saddle horses, fine trotters, fair pairs, ordinary buggy animals, and a very poor oolleotion of brood mares and stallions. ?p and on we go towards the brick building agaio, and pass the row of bog pens, from which if were taken theoolleo tion of Mr. Pe tern, there would be none left, and I thought the most of them bad better have been left at home. Half a dozen or more of Mr. Peters' sheep, and a pen or two of bis beautiful Cashmeres, comprised the sheep and goats on exhi? bition. Next we pass a large enclosure, clone Elank fence ten feet high, of perhaps alf or three-quarters of un acre, and in it thousands are cheering at the compe? titors in the velocipede race. The circle waa floored inside and the racing was fine. A ramble further through horse? powers, and pumps, and stump pullers, and tonto, and shows of anacondas, wild men of Borneo, monkeys, deformed children, and fat girls and spotted nig? gers, and sleight-of-hand exhibitions, and gift concerno, and plowa again, brought us to the gateway, where the party con? cluded to rest until the train came to carry U9 back to Macon. One of our number, quite an unso? phisticated old Georgiern, thought it courtesy to accept a card, circular and the like from overy drummer that pre? sented them, and by tbo time wo reached the gate, be bad a pile that would bave made bim quito a library of tracts. He held on to them, and when last I saw him, was toddling up Ibo steps at the hotel to bis room with bis load of polite literature. So far, so good. Another dose to-mor? row. Yours truly, VISITOR. MACON-, November 17, 1869. Vi ii-lu Ulchnrd. Yankee school-marms in tho South, in training the liglit infantry of radicalism, aro cnrefnl first to tench the. young re? publican idea not to Ray Mus. John, or Miss Julia; and, when nddressiug each other, to give each freed individual his or her lawful "entitle;" as Mr. Smith, or Mrs. VrTado Hampton, or Hou. Mr. Ben. Butler, Esq.-to iguoro tho unceremo? nious Uncle, or Aunty, or Maurnnin. Now, Unelo Richard don't care a straw for those things; not a freedman himself j -one of the old issue-he is freo of petty ?jealousies. Richard Valentine, eulorod minister, M. E. Church, South-so recognized by tho South Carolina Conference-elected to tho Legislature from Abbeville, hy the radicals, he could have had almost any ofiico of profit it he had been true to the part}', but he turned ont to he a Demo? crat, which was bad enough for them, and au honest man, which wasstill worse. Fluttering overtures were made to him to unite with the African Church, radi? cal. He refused to bo resonstructed on ' that basia, or to forsake his old friends. I He refused to join tba infamous radical I ring, when in tho Legislature, and finally j resigned in disgust. Honestly feeling ! his own incompetency, and witnessing I daily the corruption und extravagance ol j the greedy horde, ho was unwilling to remain longer an apparent tool of tho I designing white men, straugers and rene? gades, who actually bullied ami worried him out of tho Legislature. Thus wei seo this worthy colored citizen refusing f to sell himself, as he evidently con j sidered it, to the enemies of tho country, both in Church and State, und choosing rather to softer affliction with the true ! people of the State, than to t>liaro in the spoils of office for a season. As a mom 1 ber of tho Cokesbury Democratic Club, ' ho exerted his influence to restrain the I excesses of his misguided race, but failed to bo appreciated or even understood. ! And now, though thrown off, in a mea ? sure, by bis color, he is yet doing a good I mission work in many parts, whero in? vited to preach. It would bo well to en? courage, by some material aid, these missionary efforts, undertaken mainly at his own expense. Much good might be dono by his enlightening and restraining ministrations, if he could spure tho time from hi? trade, which is bis only means of support for a largo family. Wo say I if be could be relieved from this neces? sity, in a measure at least, it would leave moro timo to devote to this work, for he is truly honest in believing ho is called of God to this work of tho ministry. Tbeso suggestions are made, boping to influeuco tho religious portion of the community to do something iu this mat? ter. Richard Valentine, now an old man, is known throughout tho State ns a modest, peaceable, intelligent colored citizen. Tho only thing to bo regretted is, thero are so few of the sumo sort, and that he is one of a thousand. THE COLONEL. SICKLES TO UK RECANTED.-A canvass of Senators shows that Minister Sickles cannot bo confirmed, heuce Grant and Fish have resolved upon recalling him from Madrid, with tho intention of re? placing him by Gen. Dix. Tho nctiou of tho British Government in sending Mr. Luynrd to Madrid, has shown our Go? vernment tho necessity of having a first class diplomatist upon the spot there, to handle tho various complicated questions which moot necessarily arise ere long. Trustworthy reports of Sickles' immoral conduct ib Madrid, have accelerated.tho decision, arrived at by '. the aduiiuistiu tion.

MI DWB SIB: It is a painful regret to me that I cannot be present nt the preli ?Binary meeting of tba State Survivor? ' Association. Up to this hour, I had set my heart on being there to join in its or? ganisation, add aid in giviug tbe first impetus to ita honorable and holy work, and to meet again many who 1 had known, honored and loved in tho field. I am very, very Eorry that it ia so that I cannot be there. Will you not have the kindness to make known to our oomrades my profound and entire sympathy? We are all survivors of our brothers aud sons who died gloriously for their country and for liberty, and we have survived that liberty aud that country for which they died. We now associate ourselves to keep alive in our hearts, by solemn rites and good deeds, tho memory of tho virtue;; and tbe great deeds of tboso who perish? ed, tbat thereby our spirit may be so in? flamed BS never to forget the cause for whioh they died, although that cause did j seem to die with them. Tt does seem to me that this is a duty near to and very oloso upon our duties to that God in whose presence tho justified spirits of our comrades are liviug forever-psst all survivorship. It is quito equal to our duties to their and our posterity, and to our own present. Let the initiatory performance of this \ sacred duty be made with the profound? est impression ot all it* solemn relations. lu dictating tbe terms of our Associa- : tiou, strive to do justice to all tho boroic I dead and to all the living whom God has blessed, (although condemned to survive Mieir liberty,) by having made them sol-J dicr8 of thu army of the Southern Con fedorucy. Many of our fathers haveb?*en soldiers of liberty for centuries; but we may say with proud humility, that we have giveu a now blazon to their shields, by adding to them tbequurterings of sol? diers of tho Southern Confederacy. It is as noble a title of honor as was ever won by man. Let us, then, build for it uot only monumeut8 of marble and brnss, but thoa.; ever-living memorials which will dwell in the human heart ns longos tbure lives ono drop of Confederate blood. This Association, then, is meant to perpetuate our own honor nnd that of our brothers who won it ut tho price of deal h. Wo nssnmo, thus, the gravest obliga? tions, and I do trust that tho organiza? tion will be as puro and freo from liviug passion, as if our hands were joined over tho graves of our comrades, and that with earnest and patieut deliberation, it will be no constructed as to bind ns in a holy brotherhood, and as our Charleston comrades havealroudy expressed it, bring comfort nnd blessings to many of the "survivors of the Confederate army and navy, who aro disabled by wounds re? ceived ?ind disease contracted in tho ser? vice, from earning a livelihood for them? selves and their families, and many wi? dows and orphans left destitute by the death of their husbands und fathers in tho cause of their country." Pray communicate to tho meeting, in such wise us you may choose, thia ex presaian of my earnest and active sympar th}-. Faithfully yours, JOHN S. PRESTON". To Major BABKEB. TIIO I.uto Kail. MK. Eurum: In your paper of tho 18th instant, a correspondent, signing him? self "Enterprise," seems disposed to cast blame on somebody, because a publish? ing house iu Columbia "failed to receive the compliment either of praise or con sure, on a lot of books, Sec., placed on exhibition at the lato fair." Now, as "South Carolina," another correspondent in thePnoiNix, of the 20th instant, bas dealt "Enterprise" some pretty sovero and well directed blows, aud demonstrated that tho fault com? plained of by "Enterprise" does not rest on the "managers of the association," but seemingly on the Sub-Committee on Stationery, (of which I bad tho honor of being chairinau,) it becomes my duty to mako aomo reply. "South Carolina" bavin;: already handled "Enterprise" "without gloves," I am not disposed to cuter further into controversy with him, but am perfectly willing to "play quits," feeling quite certain that I eau exonerate said committee from any blame whatever in thu mutter, by a simple statement of facts. In tho discharge of our duty, the only guide we had was tho hook of entry, fur? nished us by tho Scoretary of tho So? ciety. lu this book, Messrs. Walker, Evans & Coggswell, of Charleston, had the only entries; consequently, there being no competition, tho committee- could not do otherwise than award them all the premiums offered by the society on sta? tionery. I would, however, state, in justice to parties iu Columbia, that our committee saw on exhibition some very bande?me specimens of book binding, blank books, ?fcc, but had no jurisdiction over them, they having been improperly entered in som? other catalogue, and not in ours. Respectfully yours, J. K. DAVIS, Chairman of Committo on Stationery.
