COLUMBIA, S. C. Taesday liomin?, July 19, 1870. Deallt of Judgo A. B. Longstreet. This distinguished eon of Georgia, we are informed, died at Oxford, Miss., on the 9th instant. Judge Longstreeet was born in tho city of Augusta, in September, 1790. He reoeivod his aoademio training at the celebrated school of the Rev. Moses Waadell, at WilliDgton, S. C. Thence he becamo a member of Yale College, where he graduated in 1813. Next he studied law. Alter his admission to tho bar, he married Miss Parks, and settled at Qreeueborough, in Georgia. At this period of his life, he wrote his inimitable work-the "Georgia Scenes." He next became a member of the Legislature, and next a Georgia Judge. A Con? gressional career next aroused his ambi? tion. Bat amid the heat thereof, ono of his children j.-died, and this event so affected him, that he withdrew from the contest, and began to seek tho Christian ministry. Ia 1838, he becamo a Metho? dist minister, and officiated at Augusta, Georgia. In 1839, Judge Longstreet was elected President of Emory College. Afterwards, ho filled tho same post in the Centenary College, in Louisiana, in the University of South Carolina, and in the University of Mississippi, with which last institution he was probably connect? ed at the period of his death. He was in politics a State rights man. He was a busy writer in the department of religion and politics. Judge Long? street's humor was born, and seems to have died in tho "Georgia Scones," as his other humorous work, "Mastor Wil? liam Mitteu," is more or less a failure, and stood relatively to the "Georgia Scenes" os does "Paradise Regained" to "Paradise Lost." Judgo Longstreet was, iu his day and generation, a mau of mark. Wo shall, however, leave to others, better ac? quainted thau we with his life aad genius, to attempt an analysis of his career and character. Tho Augusta Chronicle and Sentinel, from which we have taken tho facts connected with his life, pays a handsome tribute to Judgo Longstreet's memory, and gives us the gratifying assurance that ho passed from earth in the full possession of his mental facul? ties, and with the joyous hope of the Christian's immortality. What Frcc-Trudc Means. There is again, says tho Free Trader, much discussion going on, especially among the country papers, as to tho name under which the agitation for tariff re? form shall be carried on during tho ap? proaching summer campaign; and the cry is again raised that the people do not want free-trade, but merely want revenue reform. Lst us see once more. Free-trade is that trade which is abso? lutely free from all restrictions imposed by government, save only such as aro necessary for the maintenance of indi? vidual rights and the preservation of public order. In this absolute sense a free-trader is opposed to the practice of levying any portion of the national revenue by means of a tax on trade in any shape or form. In this absolute souse free trade means simply opposition to a certain method of raising revenue. The raising of revenue by a govern? ment in amount sufficient to supply tho legitimate needs of the public treasury is oue of the most essential and useful du? ties of goverumeut. On this subject all men are agreed. On the methods of raising this revonue good men may differ; but no oue deuies tbe right and the duty of government to raise by equitable taxa? tion the necessary menus to support it? self. Free trade does not quostion this right', it only questions the policy of rais? ing any portion of thoso means by a tax on trade, by a tax on tho importation oi foreign goods, by the institution com? monly known as tho tarjff. Heuce in thc broadest and truest meouing of free trade, it is simply opposition to tho sys tom of raising revcuuo by means of c tariff. As long as the tariff system of collect " ing a tax on foreign goods was used onlv for the purpose of raising revenue, thc number o? free traders was comparative? ly small, their opposition light, and thoii weight and influence limited. Their opposition was based upon a scientific assumption, extremely difficult of proof, questionable in practical results, and not shared at this day by some of tho QI os I advanced economists. But when tho tariff, tho practice ol collecting a tax on foreign goods, bc came systematically perverted to en tir obj different purposes, to the supposed de? velopment of certain interests, to tin advancement of oue occupation over ul others, to tho benefit of one locality ut tlx expenso of tho whole country, then ut opposition of u very different character arose-au oppositiou not to raising rove nae by means of a tariff, but au opposi tioa to the perversion of the tariff tr purposes which are now universally coni denined as wasteful, immoral, unjust and utterly illusory. This perversion of the tariff from its original purpose of raifing ?evenno was based upon the erroneous belief that competition was injurious to industry; that certain industries wore entitled to be protected by government against the supposed injurious competition of simi? lar industries in foreign countries, and that tho government had, therefore, the right to protect those certain domestic industries against foreign competitors by levying tariff duties on tho foreign pro? ducts sufficiently heavy to prevent their importation. This perversion of tho tariff to tho supposed purposoof pro? tecting certain domestic industries against foreign competion hos gradually grown up into a gigantic idol, n national Moloch, a strange, oonfused mixturo of philosophy, philanthropy, humbug, ly? ing, cheating, and fraud, that imposes itself upon the world as a new economic faith, of which Carey: and Greeley are tho prophets, of which Morrell, Oakes Ames, and McCarthy are tho tithe-col? lecting high-priests, of which forty mil? lions of American citizens have boen tho deluded, robbed, and impoverished vic? tims, and of which tho free traders of to-day aro tho opponents unto death. This perversion of tho tariff from its original purpose of raising reveuuo to tho purpose of provouting imports, and thereby preventing revenue, is called protection. Its true nature has only re? cently begun to bo understood by a peoplo whose vitals wore being sapped they knew not how, and who aro in? debted to tho extreme free traders for the information. And thou grew up an opposition to tho present tariff system, led indeed by tho absolute free traders, but very differcut to the old opposition carried on by the absoluto free traders years ago. Tho old opposition was au opposition to raising revonuo by any kiud of tariff Tho new opposition is au opposition to the system of protection. But inasmuch as tho agitation waa be guu by the free traders pure and simple, and inasmuch as the freo traders pure and simple are fully us much opposed to protection as they aro to tariffs, the en? tire ugitation has rouged itself under the banner of free trade. Hero we hove the explanation of much that has always seemed obscure to the general public. Tho freo traders, as au organization, consist of two separate classes of thinkers-oue that is opposed to all tariffs, the other that is only op? posed to thc perversiou of tariffs to the delusion called protection. The former class, it should not bo denied, numbers among its mombors some of tho pro? foundest thinkers of the day; but thc latter class, while not without competent representatives, is by far the most nume? rous, the most active, tho most tho roughly in sympathy with the preseul condition of public thought, and virtu ally constitutes to-day tho free trade ole mont of the country. Let it then be understood, once foi all, that "free trade meaus opposition tc protection." - < ? ? Tho Charleston Hews attaches V i? significance to tho removal by Congresi of Gen. Butler's disabilities. It says: "And upon this point tho action o Congress is susceptible of a simple ex placation. Tho Uuion Beform Party o ?South Carolina is a State organizatiot whoso object is tho purification of tin local administration and thc election t< office of able and trustworthy mon. N< national question, as natioual politico parties now stand, onters iuto tho cou vass. Tho platform of tho Uuion lie form Party is/a recognition of existing laws, organic and statute, ns accomplish ed facts, and it invites all honest citizen to unite in a grand effort for obtaiuiuj a State goverument which sholl repre sent faithfully and equally, not white or black, radicals or Democrats, but al classes of our citizens. And Congress in making General Butler eligiblo to hoi tho office to which ho will bo olectod bravoly declares that it will not stand i: our way; that it will not proveut thi peoplo from driving into obscurity th thieves and ruffians who now riot at th State capital; that it will not embarras a frauk and sincere peoplo in thoir man ly endeavor to throw off tho weight c unjust laws and excessive taxotiou, an to bring to merited disgraco tho bord of adventurers who pilfer the publi funds and squander the resources of th State." Tho Charleston Courier says: "Tho reform movement has taken deep bold upou tho judgment and th sympathies of tho people of Ihn Statt The press of the State have, with bu very few exceptions, giveu to ita cordi;; and hearty support, as the only move meut by which tho regeneration of th State eau be accomplished. Every du is adding to its strength, uud its capacit for the redemption of tho Com mot: wealth. Wo hove but to be true io om selves and to tho causo so wisely inatigu rated to iusuro a gratifying success. "Wo understand that tho campai-; here, will be opened some day next week by u mass meeting of tho Union Rufen Party, nt which Judgo Carpenter an Gen. Butler, ns tho standard bearer* will address tho peoplo of Charleston. 1 will be, wo doubt not, ono of the large* meetings of the kind ever held in thi i city." Parties In the Futuro to Divide OB tUe Labor Question.. The Ne w. .Orleans Timos eayo : Horace Greeley bolt? tho radical track in opposing Chinese labor, and flays it is too lato now to raise the cry of "Ameri? ca for Americans," after SO bitterly de? nouncing it only one^ year ago. He admits that the labor '{question is des? tined to absorb all other political ques? tions ore long, and*acknowledges that it has only boon held in nbeyanoo nntil now by our vast expanse of unoccupied laud opon to the pii?l?o. All this is very satisfactory, as showing that Mr. Gree? ley is alivo to the progress of events, and the futility of opposing manifest destiny with frail theories. His plan for avert? ing the contest is not, however, a happy ono. With that strong conservative teudency which always oomes over him in difficulty, he instinctively turns to compromiso, nud suggests the organiza? tion of workmen iuto co-operative socie? ties. Apart from the utter impractica? bility of this remody, it would not prove a successful, one after all. It would bo absurd to expect from capitalists their co-operation in a system of labor which would double their preseut expenses, when they have at their very doors the opportunity of decreasing them fifty per cont. Besides, Mr. Greoloy forgets the tondency of the public to buy in the cheapest market; and what could sustain the co-operative system bf manufactures, evon if established, in face of tho possi? bility of any workmen, at any moment, seceding, and, by availing himsolf of Chinese labor, underselling the co-ope? rative institutions at ruinous rates? in? deed, Mr. Greeley feels this himsolf, nnd'.merely throws out the idea iu order to guin time. Tho truth is, the labor contest is one that cannot bo either avoided or, uuder auy circumstances, compromised. For ten years tho price of labor has beeu steadily rising, and now our whole com? mercial system rests on a hugely inflated basis. High tariffs aud high taxes have served to sustain it so far, but ouly nt the expenses of exciting cupidity abroad, aud startiug nu influx of labor from the -West and Fast, destiued to sweep away its fundamental support. Tho exclusive policy of Japan aud China iu shutting off all relations with tho outside world, i which is, after nil, tho ultimate end of the protective doctrine, is the ouly thing able to avert the conflict. We may, therefore, prepare to liud the relations between labor aud capital para? mount in nil future political contests, tho remuants of tho old radical party striviug to patch up their siuking boat by all kinds of comprbmises. Ou the contrary, the Democratic party embraces what may bo called tho revolutionary element of the country, always a large one, ready at all times for change and uew political ex? periments. This will declare in favor of free labor and freo trade, aud in tho com? ing contest both of the great political parties of the duy will lind their graves. Some oue hus well said: "The influence of Christianity on so? ciety is not exerted through the cannon of tho warner, and tho dispatches of the statesman, but iu tho sweet breathings of truth that como ou tho opening petalo of the breast of infancy, liku spice-luden zephrys from the laud of the blest-in the gentle words of love that fall in dewy freshness ou tho wondering car of child? hood, from gray haired sires and sweet voiced matrons-in the nameless tellings of high and holy things, wrapped iu the deep, unutterable voices of tho ancient eternities that cometo the silent car of youth before tho din and strife of the balding world have stunned these inner souses of tho soul-in tho longing aud wistful thoughts of things of deep, abyss mat mystery that steals into the soul in its lonely musings in tho solitary cham? ber-in tho deep hush of tho moaning forest-iu tho awful silence of the hol? low mid-night-in tho seasons of gloomy doubt aud frantic effort to scalo the prison wall of mystery and darkness that .rises and closes iu encircling silence around all-in times of heart sickness and disappointment, when reaching forth tho hand of warm confiding trust, it grasps tho cold and slippery akin of tho adder-it is then that Christianity, with its wonderful tellings of infinite things, comes with apocalyptic splender and power, and revealing to tho soul, creates those martyr spirits that stamp their lineamonts on'tho enduring rock." PRUSSIA'S WEAK POINT.-Should hos? tilities commence, it will probably be where Prussia is weakest. We see that orders ha PO been sent to Cherbourg to preparo a fleet for 30,000 troops. Such a force, thrown into the Schleswig-Hol? stein duchies, now forcibly held by Prussia, might do a great deal of mis? chief by a sudden blow, well delivered. This would strike where Prussia is weak? est, for tho inhabitants of these duchies hate their German tyrants and aro devot? ed to their old Danish alliances aud con? nection. lu a very short time, we shall see what Napoleon is aiming at. He may have a secret understanding with Austria and tho other South German Powers, and is said to be in treaty, at present, with Denmark, Norway and Sweden. The candidature of Prince Leopold CAM?

Agricultural Congress-Tobe Held In the City of Augusta, Ga., October 30,1670. We invite special attention to the sub? joined card : ?b Agriculturists ahd Agricultural Organi? sations throughout Ute country. ? The necessity of co-operation amongst the agriculturists and agricultural or? ganizations of thc Southern States is be? coming moro manifest every year. Pub lio improvement's, tho diffusion of agri? cultural science, and the protection of the rights of agriculturalists, have not hitherto received the attention which sui j eats of such vast importance to our prosperity demuud, and which aro best secured by voluntary association and combined action. Tho interests of tho cultivators of thu great staple productions of the Southern States demaud a central and united or? ganization, tho object of which shall bc the promoliou of improved methods of culture-especially adapted to tho pro? ductions peculiar to our section-the improvement of our labor Rystem, tho iucouragement of foreigu emigration, and the diversification of our agricultural productions. ? general desire for an organization, with these objects in view, is expressed by loading agriculturists throughout the South. It is, therefore, proposed to orgauize an association which shall moot aun nally ut some accessible poiut iu ono of the Southern States, where agriculturists from overy section shall assemble hie to deliberate in council, and fully communicate the result of their experi? ences, as tending to the advancement of tho arts of husbandry and kindred sub? jects. It is suggested that tho initiatory as? sembly conveue ut Augusta, Ga., during tho holding of tho great fair of thc "Cot? ton States' Mechanics aud Agricultural Fair Association" iu October next. lu furtherance of the foregoing, the undersigned have been appointed a joint committee from the "Cottou States' Me? chanics and Agricultural Fair Associa? tion," aud from the Augusta Board of Trade, to make nil necessary arrange? ments for tho first meeting, which will bo held in this city October "20, 1870. Thc several Stato aud County organi? zations, throughout the country, ?ire cor? dially invited to send delegates. The first business before tho assembly will be tho permanent organization of au Agricultural Congress, election of ofli cer.s, Ac, to bo followed by free discus? sion of agricultural subjects. The central location of Augusta, and its evtensivo railroad connections, make it easy of access from all poiuts of the country. Arrangements are made with tho va? rious railroads to carry delegates free of charge or at reduced rates. Delegates, iu ordor to avail themselves of this privilege, will have to present duly authenticated certificates of appoint? ment to the Agricultural Congress.

LUNATIC ASYLUM, S. C., July 1G, 1870. Mr. EDITOK: Some years since, a city paper published tho escapo of a patient from tho Asylum. Though tho simple fact was mentioned, great anxiety und distress was produced among those who had friendsnud relatives in our charge, each supposing their friend or relative tho subject. In order to relieve similar feelings which maj' arise iu the minds of those having friends in the Asylum, when they read your report of the escaped lunatic, I beg to state that the patient in ques? tion was Draton Douglas, a colored con? vict from the Penitentiary. Ho left his place of confinement unobserved, and quietly mado good his escape. When missed, ho was followed by two attend? ants; on hearing that he was far in ad? vance, they returned, and other menus adopted for his arrest. By publishing this note, you will, no doubt, save much auxietv. J. W. PARKER, Supt. Lunatic Asylum, S. C. A MoNSTEIt GUN.-Tho British war office has issued an order for tho con? struction of a 35-ton gun, and the royal gun factories at Woolwhich are now eu gaged in its manufacture. This colossal piece of ord ii anet; will be, says the Eu? ropean Mail, an enlarged specimen of tho "Woolwich gnu," which is iu reality a coil gnu on tho principle introduced by Mr. Fraser, whereby tho number of the parte (as compared with tho Armstrong method) is groatly diminished, while tho total cost is materially reduced, and tho strength of tho gun is notouly preserved, but iucreased. It is estimated that it will require six months to completo the construction of tho immense affair. MUSCLE VERSUS MIND.-A recent num? ber of tho Hearth and Hom': contains an article on tho present rage for physical exercises. While cordially approving of the cultivation of muscle, tho writer thinks that tho danger now is, as it has long been in England, that muscio will bo cultivated to the neglect, of ibo mind Ho particularly condemns tho ucwly iutroduced fashion of professional clubs perambulating thc country for months in succession, playing matched games, j ou which largo sums of money aro staked, and for the playing of which the slubs receive salaries from their backers.

Provide for the Emergency-A Word to the Agriculturist. Wo cordially unite with tho Chronicle \ and Sentinel, of Augusta, Geprgia, in ad? vising our peoplo to pr?vido ngainst a dearth of provisions, likely to result from war iu Europe. That war must enhance the price of brcadstuffs and de? press the value of cotton. At all times, we have deemed it a ruinous policy to plant cottou to the exclusiou of corn and grain generally. Now, moro than ever, does it become us to roviow this policy. Our cotemporury says: There is time yet for something to be done to .sustain our past error, nud make us less dependent for food upon the North uud West. Nuture has blessed us ! with a generous climate nud a fruitful soil, well adapted to the growth of | grapes, small graiu and root crops. These grow and flourish here during the entire winter. A few acres of laud well propnrcd and properly enriched, will so cure a full and abundant crop of turnips, beets or carrots for tho supply of ani? mals during tho entire winter and spring. A small plat of land, highly fertilizad uud sown iu ryo or barley, early in Sep-1 tember, will furnish largo supplies of foruge, after tho root crops shall have been exhausted. The long-stem bluo collard is a hardy winter plant, and will yield more per acre on good laud, well prepared, than any plant with which we ure acquaiuted. Tho collard is highly nutritious for mau and beast, aud for butter-making qualities, is a superior food for milch cows. Let all these be tried. Wo would suggest, as a suitable pro? vision for our present situation, some-1 thiug like tho following: For a farm of ten mule force, ono acre each in turnips, beats, carrots aud collards, and two acres 1 iu rye. Tho turnips (rutabaga's) should bel sowu in drills two aud-a-half feet apart} from the 20th to thc last of this mouth, tho beets, carrots and collards, also iu drdls in the same distaucc, about the middle of August, and the rye, broad cast, by the first of September. This will furnish a full supply for the work stock, cattle, sheep and hogs ou au ordi? nary plantation of tho size iudicated. Mules, with a very little care, can bo kept fat and in good working condition | up to the first of April. This is too im? portant a matter to be neglected. Great, distress, if not actual starvation, must; ensue in some localities next year unless wc take time by the forelock aud amply provide ngainst such a lamentable con? tingency. But it must be remembered that full crops eau only be. made ou laud well prepared aud highly fertilized. Peruvian guano or auy of the standard super-phosphates, in the absence of rich stable mauure or cotton seed, at tho rate of 200 pouuds of the Peruvian or 350 of j the super-phosphates, ou laud thorough? ly plowed and well harrowed, will bo I sufficient to secure a good crop.
