WHICH FUBNISHES THE EXPORTS.-A
correspondent of the New Yt?rk Journal
of Commerce asks: "What portion of the
producta of the United States are of
Southern production? The Journal of
Commerce replies:
"ThiB is not a very profitable inquiry
if intended to foster a sectional feeling,
but if designed in good faith, it might
lead to comparisons useful to all sections.
We may enswer, without going into de?
tails, that for the twelve months ending
with Juno, 1870, tho domestio exports
were valued in mixed currency at about
?500,000,000, of whioli a littlo over one
half were new products from the South?
ern States. Tho valuo of the exports of
cotton alone was a little over $227,000,
000. Tho official figures of the total ex?
ports for tho year were $499,073,982, but
the account at last advices was subject to
further correction."
Here is a candid acknowledgment that
"B little over half tho exports" wero the
producta of the Southern States. That
is, a littlo over half, or moro than $250,
000,000 of the agricultural productions
of the South were contributed by South?
ern labor, of wbioh the ootton bill fur?
nishes 227,000,000. Wbo reaps tho ben?
efit? Not the Southern planter-not the
man and brother-tho loyal African.
The North and East manufacture and
..grow rich under a protective tariff sys?
tem almost prohibiting. Tho labor of
the West and South pays the debt and
sustains the credit of "tho National Go?
vernment." .
THE CANVASS IN FAIRFIELD.-Thoro
was a tioket nominated in Fairfield for
County officers and members of tho Le?
gislature on October 3. This ticket was
not acceptablo to many of the Reform
party. In addition to this, several of the
nominees declined. Under these circum?
stances the YOUNO MEN'S CLUB of Winns
boro, on Saturday night last, nominated
a new ticket, un follows:
For the Legislature.-Jas. B. McCants,
Major Boulware, Capt. Jos. Beaty.
For School Commissioner.-Ben j. R.
Stuart.
County Commissioners.-Ti. L. Elliott,
Tbos. Jordan, E. W. Ollevcr.
This new ticket is strongly ondorsod
by tho Winnsboro News, and is com?
mended to the anti-radicalists of Fair?
field.
EMIGRATION TO THE SOUTHERN STATES.
It is to emigration alono that the South?
ern States must look for prosperity iu
the future, and as tho subject is ono of
importance to our people, we print the
views of a gentleman who has given
much attention to the subject. Colonel
Blanton Duncan, who is now in Eng?
land, as Chairman of tho Committee ap?
pointed to present the advantages of the
South to capitalists and emigrants, has
written a letter to Governor Stevenson,
of Kentucky, in which be says that the
Legislatures have not provided suffioient
means to promote the transportation of
foreign laborers to thi3 country, and to
furnish them with employment imme?
diately ou their arrival. Ho ulso says
that the plau adopted by tho British
Government to secure emigration to its
own colonies, offers greater inducements
thou thoa? presented by tho Southern
States. The organizations now at work
in England for the colouics, send all
kinds of emigrants free, und provide for
them temporary shelter and sustenance
uutil situations can be obtained. At
any time within a month after arrival, a
free passage is given on any of the rail?
roads to .such points as tho emigrants
desire to looate on.
To secure full protection to females,
all single women are placed under tho
churge of a matron, both'on the voyage
and after their arrival. Tho emigrants,
except those who go out us domestics,
sign au agreement to reimburse tho pas?
sage money, eighty dollars, to tho Go?
vernment within two years. On tho re?
payment of this sum tho emigrant re?
ceives forty acres of land for each grown
person, aud twenty acres for each child
between ono and twelve years of age.
Thoso who choose to pay twenty dollars
in advance, sign an agreemcut lo return
sixty dollars in a year's time, and receive
the same allotments of land. Tho Go?
vernment also assures emigrants of
speedy employment ia various callings,
mechanics ami skilled laborers at wage.-;
of two to three dollars a day in gold ;
shepherds $125 to $200 a year, with ra?
tions; grooms $200 to $250; farm ser?
vants $125 to $150; servant maids from
?100 to $200. The weekly rations are
eight pounds of flour, twelve pounds of
beef, two pounds of sugar, and a quarter
of a pound of toa, for a man and his
wife, and half the above to a singlo per?
ron. Colonel Duncan advises that the
Legislature of Kentucky should adopt a
similar plau.
GENERAL LEE.-Mr. Garrott, of Balti?
more, iu his speech accepting the Presi?
dency of the Southern Commercial Con?
vention, now in session at Cincinnati,
spoke of Gonoral Loo as "that illustrious
mau, that great and good mau, General
Robert E. Loo." Tho words were re?
ceived with cheers.
TERRIBLE CASUALTY.-As tho train
coming from Dalton lust Wednesday
night was passing Sugar Valley, it ran
over a man by thc name of Andrew Nor
rell, cutting off bis head aud arms, and
otherwise horribly mutilating his body.
The boys and girls of England have
contributed the money to build a monu?
ment over tho remains of Daniel do Foe,
author of "Robinson Crusoe," who wa i
buried one hundred aud thirty-nine years
ago. A well-merited compliment.
BAZAINE'S POSITION.-Marshal Ba?
zaine, it is said on good authority, re?
fases to recognize the Republic. If thia
report li? tr no tho situation ia ; Franco,
and as between France and Prussia, hus
become-more complicated than over. If
Bazaine maintains this ground, -King
William may not find it so difficult after
all to trent with Napoleon. SnppoBo
that Bazaine surrenders with consent of
Napoleon, and suppose, besides, that
King William gives Napoleon a safe con?
duct to Metz, would it be difficult for
the King of Prussia to restore Napoleon?
Bazaine bas, at least, 200,000 men on
whom ho can rely. If Napoleon from
Metz were to mako an appeal to tho
Frenoh people-France, meanwhile,
seeing in the Republic nothing but dis?
order, and feeling that Napoleon was
backed up by the whole strength of
Prussia-is it impossible that the
peasants, who are Bonapartists almost
to a mau, would voto for tho restoration
of the empire? All our reliable news
from the interior of Franco reveals tho
fact, that the peasants are not republi?
can. We regret the fact, while wo are
compelled to confeBS it.
This is one of the difficulties suggested
by Bazniuo's position. But it is not tho
only ono. If Bazaine stands by tho
Emperor, Franco is not only at war with
Germany, but at war with herself. It is
au empire divided; and tho attitude of
tho defender of Metz compels us to look
at tho possibilities of a civil war of the
most alarming kind. The legions of
France have never been so turned against
each other ns were the legions of Rome
in the last days of the Republic, and as
was the fashion under the empire. If
Bazaine stands by Napoleon, no one can
tell what may happen.
[New York Herald.
THE REPUBLICANS IN POWER.-Since
the Republican party came into power,
ten years ago, the various Stato expendi?
tures have been quadrupled, and venality
and corruption have made our legisla?
tive halls an offence to civilization ; tho
Federal Congress has been controlled by
tariff and bond-holding rings to the
threatened ruin of the country; under
pretense of raising revenue for tho
Government, a most outragoous tari fl
system hos been built up; the expendi?
tures of the Government have boen most
wasteful and extravagant, nnd the hard
earned substance of tho people has been
wrung from them to enrich office-seekers;
the public domain has been squandered
shamelessly for the benefit of organized
bauds of greedy speculators; high pub?
lic officials have emerged as if by magic
from poverty to wealth, and the Presi?
dential chair, once filled by Washington,
Jefferson and Jackson, has been con?
verted into an office-brokerage; tho Su?
preme Court has been packed to proouro
a certain decision; and every effort, no
matter how disgraceful, has been made
to retain the hold on power.
Such is the record of nine yearsj of
power wielded by this sectional party.
It is time there was a change. Tho
people are noting on this principle
Lot us carry the House of Representa?
tives this year, and the Senate and Pre?
sident will come in due timo.

OUT OF THE WORLD WITH A RUSH.
Francis Nutting,,of Lansingburg, com?
mitted suicide ou Wednesday by lying
down upou the track of the Troy and
Boston Railroad, near Eagle Bridge, iu
front of au approaching traiu. He chose
a curve in the road so that tho engineer
could not see him until too late. He lay
with his hoad from the engine, and thus
awaited death. Tho locomotive, tender
and five coaches passed over him, nearly
cutting off his head and shockingly mu?
tilating his body. The following letter
was found in his clothing:
I have selected this place because the
curve is urge, and I cannot bo seon until
it is too late to stop the engine. Thus
I shall go out of the world with a rush. I
have fortifiod myself with some forty
rod whisky, which I got at tho Hollow,
where may be found somo moro of tho
6amc sort. Whoever finds my dead body
and this paper will knew who I am.
Send my personal effects to my wife,
Mrs. Gertrudo Nutting, in Lansingburg.
I did this by my own hand. Rum is thy
causo. I have but one regret; that Vs
my wife; for she has been a wife to vue
iu every sonso of the word. But I Can?
not live any longer, for I am tired of lifo.
So now farowell to the world.

nounce the Budden death, yesterday
morning, from heart disease, of Col. W.

instantly expired. Truly a good mau
anda prominent citizen lias been re?
moved. His remains were carried to
