We have bo Seers of the result of any .BO-oailed .oonbiBetyUM botween Independent Republicans of the Third ?iroait end F. J. Moses, Jr., to eleot him Judge. There are abundant and good grootide upon which they should refuse to enter into any coalition with him, to serve him in hia present straits. They should, therefore, be spared the leant thrown oat by the Union-Herald that they are seeking to reward "po? litical treachery end official crime," because, however trne these charges against him may be, the partionlar specification given by the Union-Herald ia not calcalated to sostain thorn. The Herald parses by air Meseb' chief fol? lies and crimes to brand him for the only sot of his administration that good and fair men can commend. Whatever special purposes ho may have had in view, whatever motives may have swayed him in the act, the selection of Election Commissioners in equal numbers from the three par- j ties then solioitiag tuesoffragos of the people, oa the 22d October, in itself oonsMeM^w^B n jast, proper and ne? cessary step bh bis part. The Herald says it was -the "greatest, transfer of public Office's from one party to another evee seen in polities." The office of Election Commissioner should not be regarded ee political or conferred as the>SWard of party loyalty. No man who would accept it in order to subserve mere patty purposes, ia fit to held it., Nor ia making- appointments to it should tha Eieoqtive of a State prospeotiveiy have- irr tiew, eioept to hold them in jusfr -equipoise, the po? litical or -party pred ^lectio qs of his ap? pointee*.' In Oof 'act we hold P. J. Moses, Jr., to have been blameless, and as it is the only one npon which B^^J^^mje^g 'eti?maeiseSS his injury. Aa for the independent Republicans, and othor Republicans, too. in the Third Oirouit, and from all the Oiroqlts in the State, they will, in the election for Judge to-morrow, give Moses a;4?ide berth. They have no motive of"? personal'-or public charac? ter to iudooo them to olothe, with jadic|a| robes, a map,famong the least titled in Uhe- State to wear them. Pablio opinion of ell classes, parties and races has pointed out a gentleman of character, of oouriotions, of ability ftoafeipertenoe, of learning and cour? tesy, and of eminent judicial fairness ef mind, whom it prefers for this re? sponsible position. To meet the high requirements of the office and to con? form their octi n to the demands of intelligent pablio opinion, the General Assembly will, to morrow, we doubt not, eloob Moj. A. J.

High Farming.??In an artiola upon th:s subject in the Febrnary number of the Rural Carolinian, by O. W. Howard, of Oeorgia, he lays dowu two conditions as inseparable from the term, viz: a direct profit from the orop and an indirect profit from the im? provement of the soil. It necessitates that every acre should be perfectly cultivated, but it is entirely oonsiatout with the ownership of extensive tracts, which may be kept enclosed or pas tared. Tbe writer gives an interesting faot in oonneation with the five bale uro? to the acre, produced by Mr. Warltben,l?flti?orgia: ??Th^lfeaty.'Of; ud^kproduc from an . acre plv ground hae not, yet been I aaoertainad.' . Three yearn ago, while the EieoatiTo Committee-of the Geor ea (t]^n;fcgQ&w0utaT Sooiety wire ranging the preniiuua list for. the next year, it was1 proposed* by one of the members to offer a premium of 31,000 fqr the greatest prodaot of cot? ton from a aingle aore, tha minimum to be five bales. The proposition'was warmly debated. Some of the, mem? bers contended that tho offer of an oh a premium would burlesque the whole i list; that it was impossible to produse five bales from au aore. When'tbe vote was taken, there'was a tie, tbe ousting vote was given by tbe writer, then actiug as chairman of . the oom mittee, in favor of offering the pre? mium. At n sobaequept, oVeatiog of the committee, the subject was recon? sidered, and the premium was stricken from tho list. Curiously enough, st tho next fair, Mr. Wartheu produced I ample and most satisfaet jry certificates I to tho t'.ii-t of his having produced ts v? bales of ootten from a singln acre. Although the amount of;'manure wat greater, probably, than had ever pro I vioasly (seen applied, to an acre of. oot I ton, the profits wore still very largo. It was, tbe opinion of Mr. War then ind bis, neighbors that be would hare ! exceeded this product during the past I year, but for a storm which oat off his srop, rednoiug it to two and one-bull bales per aore. There can be no doubt that tho immediate net profits of uu j aore of heavily mannred gras*, iu u favorable locality, would exceed that of the one nuder consideration. But the cotton must be considered us part of a necessary rotatiou. As a cleans? ing erop, cotton is uneqaaled. Iu a very hwwy manuring, the constituents sV ibVand unsuitable to the cot? ton, vrcmld give ample food for the j sueoesHling orop of oats and grass, uue} thuahy indirection the profits', on the ?otton would be the larger of tbe 1 two."

A majority of the members of tho Legislature now iu Hussion are nimble to read, und some of them never learned to sign their names. This is particularly true of tho lower house. It is no exaggera? tion to state that half tho members of that body are untiblo to read print. Nearly all of them nre negroes, who, a few years ago, wore laborers on rice and augur plantations. On the day of the correspondent's visit, all the en? trances to the building wero filled with a crowd of idle negroes.

They wero all well supplied with bacon and corn-bread and well filied whiskey bottles. Tbe dirty floor of tho hall was strewn with the ends of half-smoked cigars, mouldy bits of moat and a bone or two. All light and air were excluded by tbe huge plank barricading the windows. One sickly gas jet was burning, but ouly tended to heighten the gloom. This did not soem to dumpen tbe spirits of the legislators, however. The scenes in tho Legislature wero in* describable. Six or seven blaok men were on tho floor shouting like ma? niacs. Twenty different motions were put and none of them noted npon. Tbe expressions "liar" and "ntggor" were frequently nsed, and at one timo it seemed as if tho meeting would break op in a fight. The Speaker was *>owerless to preserve order, and finally Kellogg himself came in, bare-headed and excited, and coaxed tbam into comparative quiet.
