Foremost umoDgst the most inviting conduits for misrepresentation. Is the New York Times. Here is the statement it poUforth, ai a true narration .of the faots. iVsays: .. The.details of this fiendish deed are simply these: Some 400.negroea retreat? ed into the court hoose^and it wab fired, as the only means of dislodging' them. 100 of their number were shot as they jfled, and after tbe melee not a negro was to be seen-for miles around. About 100 are said to have escaped. The fate of the 800 can hardly be considered ea any-" thing but a horrible certainty. In an editorial, in tbe New Orleans Republican, published a few days before the conflict at Oolfax?the negroes wem. 'represented as being better armed than the whites. In reciting how the whites were de? feated, it inscribed* their defeat to tbe superior arms possessed by the negroes,, having been allowod to retain their* En field, rifles wheu disbanded at tha ulose of tho war. Nor was the attack made ou the 6th by the whites on the uegrot'S at tho court house the first conflict. The negroes took armed possession of Oolfax, according to the New Orleans Republi? can, on the 31st of March. On the 1st of .April, the negroes and whites wore ifadiog eaoh other in the field, armed. From, the 1st to the l<h inst, bodies of armed men-were seen in -different direc? tions. On tbe moruibg of tbu oih-an armed party of whites were' seen by the. negroes, moving towards Smithfleld Quarters?"when their approach was suddenly cheeked, by our (the negroee) forces advancing in three companies, endeavoring to flank them, and thereby prevent retreat This move was-diwro-: vered by tbem barely in time to save | their party from capture. Tb?>y fired at our approach, ,ewjL mudo a' hasty ro treat hotly pursued by the footmen, and a few mounted wen of our party." On the next day, tho. lihh, ihe fight at Ool? fax Court House '^k.place. \ Now hero toc^njapo the causo of tbo masaoro, if it p^^6srtbe< Times to call it eo, although ther?'Were more aimed ne? groes than white .raen in the oonBtot.

It is responded to by the white men; and one of the most important und ueefal men in tbe parish?its elected Representative in the Legislature?with two others, advance to the court honse to' l^arn the proposals, which might be made. He is shot down; and has since died of tbo wound; and another is also wounded. -According to tho laws of war every men in Oolfax Court House, had forfeited his life by this treachery, jast as certainly as the Indian chief, who has just slain Gen. Canby. Yet we hear from the Radical prese sympathy for the rioters, and denunciation of the whites; For far less treachery, Gen. .Sheridan, last year, mat-sacred"! in a village 800 Indians, cpfrsjating of old men, women and children) Who. denounced this ?cruel barbarity at the North? Is Gen. -Sheridan leB^esJepmed by them.fof' per? petrating it?" Wo do not doubt that rage and indignation excited at Coifai 'white .citizens to ' extremes; bat after? euoh perfidy,. theyi might well have deemed it dangerous to all future peace, \o allow jta authors t? pass out from the court house; armed and' unscathed from the conflict. As they oould not rasper tain who was most guilty, they phot down indiscriminately all who oamo but armed, with their lives forfeited by tbe lawB of war.'

Ploughing may be and-is* carried od in every month of the year. The average mean temperature of Columbia for the month of February, 1878, at 8 A. M., was over forty-eight degrees, and at 3 P. M. it was a fraction over sixty degrees. . 1 suppose the month of April would not make as good a showing as this iu New EagUnd or the North-west. Bat the number of trees and plants that grow out of doors in Co? lumbia, and give snob sn exceptional air of verdure to the winter landscape, af? fords proof enough of the mild uhame? ter of the oil matb. Here grow and flou? rish in the open air the oauielia jiponioa, the iaarnstinue, the ospo jessamine, the English Snd1 Spanish laurel, the Chinese hawthorn, so-called, the holly, the Chi? nese aad Australian pine, the live oaks, the tree box, tba mock orange and the magui?ceni . magnolia, beside various others. None of the plants or troea I have enumerated shed their leaves dar? ing the winter, and there noed be no fluer shade trees than the mock orange j and the massive and graceful live Oak. I Columbia- is the heart of a great cot Itoo region. The orop-is cultivated to I the exclusion of others that can be I raised with equal facility, though not I with equal profit. There is nothing like I cotton -for profit. Lind that will not I bring ten bushels of corn to the acre 1 will prod nee hall u bale of cotton, worth J 8ll) to- $50. Nobody can be long in a coUou-grpwing oountry without sharing j iu'the faaeinutibuB of its culture, and, as I an. ogdeolturist, abjuring all climates j where it will not grow. There is no la j bur in raining it that is nOt easy and en? ticing, ahd it exhausts the land no more than thistle down, if you bat return the [seed to Utegrouud. Corn oau be pro Id uoed as woll hero as in Pennsylvania, j It has been, worth all winter in Columbia 1 {over - $\<fc bqshel: and hay, whioh is recite dtffioolt to raise, but wbicb an ex I perieoced Ecglish gardener hero says he j I oan raise, end has raised, at the rato of | I two tons to the acre, simply by heavy | I top-dressing, is steadily worth $15 to i [.$50 a ton in the Berne market. Bat it I ought to be said, that, except on river I bottoms, grass does not naturally flou? rish in a climate where cotton grows. | I The summer heata parch and wither it. j There is plenty of old plantation land I in the market at extremely low prices, j Lands that were held beforo the war at $25 and 830 an aore, and cheap enough I at that, oan now be had at S2, ?3, Si, If Saud 910 an acre. .These lands are all tin working order, and need only good I farming to make them more profitable [ than they ever were. The old , planters 1 Wore nearly all ruined or greatly, embar ! rasflcd by tbe war, nod those who kurvivc i oaqnot readily adapt" themselves to the I ohanges that .emancipation has, brought, j But labor is plenty, .-and j thete Beema to j be no serious obstacle to a revival.of the, agrioultnre of the State on the new j basis. The transition is naturally at 1 tended by difllcolties, but none great j enough to conquer ordinary enterprise. I With every facility for making each sore I and profitable crops as Corn and cotton/ I the temptation to au agrioalturlBt would j appear to be very much greater hero j than - is offered on the Western praino I lands. Let any man take a price cur I rent of .Western agriculture products at I the point whore they ore raised, and he I will be amazed at tho comparative unro maneratiog figures thoy show,coutrasted j with those in South Carolina. Hay six Idollara a ton, corn twenty-five cents a I bushel, pork four dollars 100 pounds, I and other things in proportion. Let I him compare theso prices with those of the products of a Soath Caro'ioa upland j plantation, whero everything is as oheer Iful and ? healthy as on tho boat rolling I pruiries, to Any tho least; and whore thero is no winter of sufficient rigor to necessitate either extra clothiug or extra 1 fuel, and no weather to impodo agricul I tural occupation at all times of tho year. The "middling" or standard grade of South Carolina cotton is at present worth at any railroad station in the State about eighteen conts a pound. An aoro of land will produce from 300 to 500 pounds, just according to tho character of the cultivation, aud the crop is as sure and the prico as steady in the long run as that of any crop that grows; while no other is so imperishable or so easily bandied, or requires so little room or at? tention. A crop worth Si,000 may be put in a cow stall. Onoo gathered und put into bales it is subjected to no con? tingencies of weather, or season, or in? sects. It neither deteriorates nor pe? rishes by waiting, aud tbo holder may thus take his own time to market it. The standing oomplaint in every cotton growing country is that farmers will grow nothing elso. But this is no won? der. Still every good farmor will guard himself on this point. A small farmer on the outskirts of Co? lumbia lately bought eighty acres of land. Last year, he put forty aares in cotton, lie raised forty bales, of 500 pounds each, on this forty acres. Uo had tho advantogo of n good supply of stable manure from tho town uud of labor from the sumo source. Tho total cost of production was niue cents a pound. Ho sold his crop on tho spot for eighteen or nineteen oeu'a a pound, making a clear profit of nearly fifty dol uulimited supply of cotton band? from the town, who wofcked for fifty cootB a day and "found" themselves, and the Control of the iaanore product from a livery stabid. Bat his Wi' not a single example. Another farmer near by, with similar facilities for d/esslng his land, accomplished the aame* results. Both were preparing aud expeetiDg to do equally well, the present season. Now, while every farmer -caflnot do this, at first, for want of -Tn,immediate supply of manure and equal facilities for proouriog labor, it may be taken a*, the standard of profitable farming in the upland country] of South Carolina, which every culti? vator can approximate udder ftijy good system of farmiog. Considering tbst the same land wi'll produce corn, grain and potatoes in abundance, end even grass, it would soem to be difficult to kuow where an agriculturist pould turn to find so good a prospeot-of jfews'rdidr his la? bors. The new discoveries/of an unli? mited supply of. artificial manure in tho inexhaustible beds or'phospbaio Charleston, come most oriportunel the present time to. enable, new eultt vatora to put thmr-lands at, onitje- under profitable cultivation. Tbesa eTtiOoial maoures' seem to be all tihat is requisite 1 to enrioh the old ootton fatids aud restore their productive pbMr.'> j | The Northern peOple, who, in their eager ignorance, rushed\ South after the war, thinking to acquire easy and sud? den fortunes by rain art cotton, were met by bad seasons and'availing market. Of course, they generallyi failed. No man can reasonably eipeb* to succeed in any such extempore entsr^jri?oa. As a ralo, the great agriaalturaf products of I the world yield no sudden fortunes, even to the experienced cultivator. How oould. it have been expected .that ignorant ad? venturers should reap them io a day? It is the merit of agriculture, a* a phrsnit, not that Its pro tits are great, bat that its results are sure and steady, and increase just in proportiop to the'?Ulli'and indus? try of the cultivator..! Its- attractions are its pieaBing aoadittons.;: And if there be I an elyseum for an agriculturist, it is a fruitful soil, a salubrious; [climate, and a delicious atmosphere, .in' Which frosts and snows aro almost unknown.
