C?LTJMBIA, 81 C. Bujiday'Morning, July 2,1871. yV^-?lON FHOM THU SoUTH.-<-The Patcut Office reborde show' that frbm'l?rj? to I860 nearly ninety-eight per cent, of ap? plicant* for patents for agricultural im? plements .were from the North, and slightly OTC? two per cent., from the South. Binoo tho emancipation of tho claves, the .planters iu the South havo beep obliged to make ase of machinery to cultivate tho soil, but it waa found, op?n trial, that very few of tho agricul? tural implements used in tho North were perfectly adapted to culturo in' tho South; thus, a corn planter could not be need for dropping cotton seed, and cul? tivators could not beiemployed in de? stroying the weeds between the rows of the Cotton bushes. The, ingenious me eli anica and planters in the South, it is stated, then, making a virtue of necessi? ty, set about inventing agricultural ma? chines suited to the cultivation of the crops of that region, ond the records of the- Patent Office during the last two years, it is reported, exhibit a most gratifying result, showing that the appli? cations for patente for agricultural imple? ments from tho former slave States have risen from twp per cent, to about thirty per cent, of all the oases flied. The yield of the cotton under tho improved methods of culturo,-i tis a ta te J, is greater dion was ever before known. i i ? ? ? .THE OOST/ JOP BanicAueai.--Tho an? nual appropriations of Congress for the current expenses of government range from $300,000,000 to 8320,000,000. B.ut it would bo a fallacy to regard this/as the limit of our present annual expenses. It has been stated by tho Hon. James B. Beck, of Kentucky, in the House bf Representatives, as well as on the hust? ings in-his own State-and never autho? ritatively denied-that since the war vast quantities of military material, horse?, mules, wagons, arms, clothing, ships and supplies of all kinds, have been sold, and are still unaccounted for. Neither Congress nor the Secretary ol the Treasury can give auy idea of the proceeds, or to what purpose they have been devoted. We only know that these materials ore now pretty much all sold, and must havo netted hundreds of mil? lions, all of which has "gone whore thc woodbine twineth." Of all these moneys, the public happens to know of ouly one small item, through the State Depart? ment, of $16,000,000 worth sold tc France last year. No living man car guess within fifty millions of the amount that baa been stoleu in this manner dur? ing the last Ave years. How much doe* Radicalism cost? Who cou tell? GEH. HANCOCK.-Among the namec prominently mentioned in . connection with the Presidency is that of Gen, Hancock. His war record ia us honor? able BS that bf any of the Federal gene? rals, and his political and peace record li unexceptionable. The Gola mb tia En? quirer pays him a handsome tribute, ano* gives the following extract from, his ordei pt November 29, 1867: ** 'The right of triol by jury, the ha JbeoM-?orpus, the liberty of the press, thc freedom of speech, the natural rights ol .parsons and the rights of property, must be preserved. ' Thc same journal alindee td numerous other orders and to letton of Gen. Hancock, manifesting the same conservati ve -spirit, written io the period of military rule succeeding the war. Should Geu. Hancock be brought before the country, this reoordwill not be with? out its effect upon theSouth?rn people.' THE FIBST Ku KLUX.-H.V. Redfleld't Winchester letter to the Cincinnati Com merdai, says: "A great deal of breath has beor wasted in Congress and other ?seles; plaoes, concerning the Ra Klux ace where they originated. That questior ie now happily nt rest. It was sett lee here to-day. I attended the closing ex erolses of the Donqull Female Institut? the other afternoon, A class in histor^ were examined. The bausa of th? breaking out of the revolutionary wai woe discussed. The teacher wanted tc know if the men who threw the tea inte Boston harbor were disguised. Yes they.were. If such an event were fe happen*in this day end time what .worth the perpetrators bo called? 'Ea Klux, /Answered the sprightly oloss in one voice 'Then,' asked the teacher, 'where wa; the first Ka Klux outrage committed? ? In Boston,' was the answer. ?Tho-' were the first Ku Klux, weroj they?' hi asked, to which the doss-responded ii the affirmative.- This settles avexec question, and throws the .responsibility of the Ka Klux organisation. Tba miserable oity will - have this sin to ao coane for, jin addition to the sin of hav ing first brought the gentle nigger fron his warm Af noan sands to this country to work for his board and clothes." < .TtobsEs TO PAX.-The* Asheville Viii *?psays: Wo aro informed that a l?tt'?i was received here from New Ybrk by th? last mail to tho effeat that Messrs. Hop - kins, Littlefield Sc Co. now refuse fe poy a dollar of the Florida bond trans action. Thia news,, we sapbos?, wil take no one by surprise, as the publi< lon g since looked at this transaction ai the veri?st farce. J Vi ?I ? WOBD TN BKKAIJ OTT XBCE SOUTH. ???the m^?oiMKnmnt''fo^^. * j <*No doubt tBe South in ?, sore ?3 is-' ?organijed etate^hanlpef bro th? %ar.; ? It would bo ?trange if w wire ?not so. In-, deed," looking at4berattew-disruption ot the aooial and domestic llfeo.f. the South Werners, at the dreadful ordeal they have Sassed through, at the. crushing disa ilitics they suffer, und at tho elevation of thedr own.slaves-brutal and ignorant negroes--aa W?lf ks a host of corrupt oarpot-baggers, to bo-their political mas? ters, can we wonder, that some disorder exists? ; The wonder is^that so few exist, and this is tho best .?vidence that the mass of the Southern people are law abiding. When a bravG and high-spirit? ed people submit spy well to, and make tho best of, their humiliating situation, we have the best goorantee of their futuro gond conduot and of peace. Let us be just and magnanimous. Let us have some consideration for th?-people of our own raco and blood, and not crash them beneath the ignorant and semi-barbarous negroes and tho carpet? bag scum of tho North. Wo have the testimony of General Sherman and of many other superior men who have been over tho South, that the pretended Ku Klux outrages are greatly exaggerated, and that tho Southerners want to live in peaau and maintain order. Then look at the surprising industry of the South at the valuable cotton orop aud other productions since the war raised under the most trying disadvantages. Thie alono shows the practical, industrious and high character of the people. Il tho Government would cease its efforts to make tho South a political arena foi party purposes, would proclaim universal amnesty and endeavor to give tho con? trol of affairs to tho intelligent whites, I who have the largest interest in theil country, we should soon hear no more ol the Ku Klux. The Southerners would forget the enmities of the war, and thc harmony and; union-of the republic would be restored in fact as well as ir name. If General Grant would uso hi; power to this end he might make i greater name and- become moro popula: than by any 'annexation schemes, trea ties with io roi gu nations or nations financial . experiments, < Tho peopl everywhere-North, South, East au< West-would regard the complete resto ration and harmony of the Union as th' greatest boon. It is in the power of th President to bring that about. Will h do it? or will he drift along as the mer tool of tho bitter faction which keep the country disorganized and gives lif to whatever there is of the Ku Klux ii the South?" Mr. Copeland, the correspondent c tho New York Journal of Gommera writing from Columbia, undor date < the 17th ult., says: "I have examined into tho system c taxation, and discovered the reason wh there has been so muoh grumbling aboi the rate. The faot is, there has beeq surprisingly large amount of oorruptioi both in the levy and collection of tb taxes. I was shown by one of your sui scribers, who has been in business hei and in Charleston for many years, a is receipt in which the tax was legitimate] in accordance with the levy, $23.51 The extras added swelled the amount t $41. He protested, and the tax-collectc struck off the extras. This was on small piece of property. He says ho hi seen bills calling for forty cents and fifi cents, upon whioh the extras amountc to $2, $2.25 and $2.50. These little oo lections ore generally made from tl negroes and poor whites, who do n< know any better than to pay them, bi the tax-gatherers are learning better tbs to affix perquisites to bills rendered t intelligent men, becauso their game beginning to be understood. As I sai above, the citizens of South Carolii have always been aristocratic. The aristocracy was of the landed order, ar to encourage the ownership of lands : largo bodies the State did not tax thee The taxes on negroes, buildings, and c merchants and professions, paid tl debts of the State. When tho war w; ended the negroes wero free, the buil ings burnt down, and nothing was left tax bat tho lands, and even they we worth much less than they were befo the war, for the reason that they we overgrown with shrubbery, oane, kt during years whee their cultivation hi been neglected. Tho accounted averaj assessment value of all lands in Sou Carolina before the war was fifty-eig cents per acre. Now they are assessi and taxes aro oolleoted at an avoraj valae of about $5 per acre. Many pt sons who had no money when the w ended had their domains sold for taxe "When the fact is considered that on from one-tenth to one-fourth of ea? land-owner's possessions is cultivate (whioh, however, is a greater avers than was worked before the war,) it not wonderful tha$ there ahould bo OJ siderable reluctance br. grumbling wb the planters 'oxe" balled upon to pay tax on the whola, amount of land Owned al rato of assessment frequently beyond tl market value. ' Tho reedit is that a go? portion of many o! the large estates offered for salo. Booth Carolina has n been developed to an extent that cane all her oiti?ens tc- feel comfortable, they wonld not part with any portion their estates. Still'I they are doing i imarkably wo ll under the oircumstanci ! Every man stands bravely up to the i sponsibility ol the. State debt, withe regard to the outrageous additions to and not one1 of them would lower] pride to breathe a whisper of repud tion in any form. ??' . "Tho taxes levied for this yoar t seven mills on the dollar of assess values, and the estimated total coll? lions at that rate .will be $1,200,000. this $600,000 will be required to pay t interest on. the debt, leaving $600,G for tho support of the State governmei I would advise gentlemen who aro in rested in tho financial affairs of Sou ?

A Dr. CHmnoUj.'wb?o'u?aeoC: the influenoe of manta apolu, shat him? self in his room with bia two daughters, and alter. killing -them be eat hw own throat,' jo referring to this fearfpl in oident, and the foots aa developed by the inquest,, tho Herald indulges in tho lol' lowing reflections: .'The incest!upon' tho bodies of Dr. Connolly aqdhis two ohildren has ODded with a verdict of murder and suicide whilo insane. The testimony shows' be? yond qnoBtioD that Dr. Connolly had .been ? drinker, and that the insanity that paused him to tuko tho life of his two ohildren and of himself was the re? sult of drink. The devil of rum, iu all its long list bf: atrocities and horrors, bas no more terribly deed to answor fur. Yet it does not Beem that Dr. Connolly, was one of thoso steady rum drinkers who befog their brains continuously with liquor, lt would appear rather that he WUB a m?n who, likiug his social glass and convivial company, could still keep his eye and the brain clear; and, if the resolution seized him, refrain for long periods from the touch or taste of the devil that overmatched him at last. He could, in short, trifle and toy with the dangerous cup. He was r. physician of no mean eminence, in a well-to-do por? tion of the city, and no besotted drunk? ard could be that for the leugth of time he was. It would nppcnr, then, that be was one of those drinkers who. touching liquor moderately nt all times, ventured at intervals upou a 'spree'-nue of those maddening whirls of dissipation that last sometimes a few days and sometimes a week or two-in which the soul that has been restraining its passion for so long ? time gives up everything to the craving for drink, and ends with the aching body, unmanageable nerves and bewildered brain, that attend the few ex? citable, feverish duys of 'tapering of!.' It is in these days that tho devil of mad? ness seizes the 'moderato' drinker, and from all appearances, it was under theso circumstances that the devil of mnducss seized Dr. Connolly. Is there no remedy for theso terrible deeds? Is there noth? ing upon our statute books that requires the police to lock up voluntary madmen? Is there no law to restrain theso 'aprees' that lead to madness aud murder? Thero are laws enough, and they should bo onforced." A singular follow, named DoSilva, was recently shot dead by a guard at Fort Sedgwick because, being a soldier and drunk, he refused to move on. DeSilva was educated ia Italy and designed for a Jesuit priest; he ran away, visited Rus? sia, Egypt, Brazil aud the Holy Land, improving himself, after his fashion, as he wont along. Ho spoke Spanish, French, Italian, German and English fluently. He was once sentenced to be garroted in Havana, but escaped; ho w?s with Maximilian in Mexico; he fought in tbe Federal army, from which ho desert? ed four times. He has been married a dozen times, and had wives all over the country. His knowledge of history and geography was extensive aud acaurate; ho was a newspaper writer also, and bia writings are said to have been very read? able. DIED.-We learn that Mr. Joseph Whit miro, a citizen of Groonville, S.

The following explanations of the terms used in our daily weather reports may prove of some interest to our read? ers r If the barometer is reported as "even," it is meant that tho state of the weather differed but little from the last report, and is not likely to ? ohange.
