COLUMBIA, SC. Saturday Morning, April 10, lg75. They Better Serve Who Wait. Some Northern journals have got up | another Southern bugaboo. They fear, or affect to fear, that Mr. Lamar, of Mis? sissippi, or Gen. Gordon, of Georgia, or Bome other typical Southerner, will be nominated as a'candidate' for the Prc sidanoy or Vice-Presidency. They really havo no just grounds of objection to | their being run for distinguished posi? tions. The whole matter with them lies | in the false postulate of Speaker Blaine, at Hartford, the other day, when he urged the sectional argument that tho North must retain in its hands the con? trol of affairs, must maintain its supre? macy over tho South, otherwise tho re? sults of tho war, tho fruits of the civil .strife, will be lost So partisans can't hoar tho idea of Southern men coming forward yet. Another reason for tho hue and cry is that it can be made to harrow up the average Northern soul, and drive them into a phalanx of opposition?so it can be turned to profit, and need to fire the Northern heart. At least, that is what is meant, although we are happy to believe that the people North are not as illiberal as many of their leading politi ?cians. They have not the same amount | ?of office, plunder, gain, selfish advan? tage on the brain as their politioal guides. 'The scales are falling from their eyes. As to the candidacy of Southern states? men, there are, however, good grounds for not desiring it We have yet a world of prejudice, ignorance and studied mis? representation to overcome. We cannot afford to wake up the slumbering fires of animosity," to stir the smouldering ashes of projndico. The people of the United States, North particularly, like the prodi? gal son, are coming to, themselves. The j process is necessarily slow. It is double conversion whioh they aro to undergo. And while they are laboring ?with tho problems, the true solution of whioh so much concern us, we would regret to see an element of discord, any step on the part of the South whioh would disturb the healthy revolution of opinion whioh is going on there. Our public men understand the proper policy. They know how to keep in the ?background. There are greater things to Bo achieved yet awhile than personal distinctions. One great section of the country is to be liberalized and enlight? ened. The North needs more recon? struction to-day than the South. What the Southern States need and require, as members of tho Union, is what they cannot1 get till the North is infused and penetrated with juater ideas, and with sounder principles of government. The Tribune need not be alarmed by any supposed "boost" of Mr. Lamar towards the Presidential nomination, and Senator Gordon will not allow his name to be used as a candidate for the Vice-Pr6si denoy. As men they need no higher position to set off their merits, as. pa? triots thoy not only can afford, but pre? fer to wait. Very Much Mistaken. The Winnsboro News does an injustice in attributing to us a change of opinion upon the merits of the so-called bonanza bill. There is nothing to give even a color? ing to this imputation, but a reference in our local columns to views whioh, wo were assured by respectable parties, were entertained of the measure by respectable persons in Columbia. While satisfied that they were mistaken, we were unwill? ing to shut out from public knowledge the fact whioh they asserted and wished to have expressed. In the matter of the reconsideration of purpose to servo on the part of one of the Commissioners, wo merely gave voice to information that was' brought to us. It was not our affair, whether ho declined to aot or not In mentioning, upon the authority of a re speotahle gentleman, that he would act, we merely stated a fact, and did not favor the view that tho Commissioners should act, or that the-bill was a proper ono in itself under which to aot Upon that point we had expressed ourselvos in quite another way. So our contemporary, whioh we are sure would not do us any intentional wrong, will see that we have not been "putting forward this bill rather mildly in our local columns." Our opinions from the first have under? gone and could undergo no ohange. If our contemporary will take the trouble to look, it will find nothing whioh to the smallest extent negatives what we say, oxoopt tho statement of a '?prevailing opinion" about the bill, as above referred to, and a communication signed "Tax? payer," whioh vt?h conclusively answered uaXw ??Y, G? ihvOihoi d1u6, by *xuuuUD." Wo concede that thio statement should have been more^iosely scanned, particu? larly ?* it has led'to the; misconception of jth^^/ TJutU Viw due to ^plAk? onoej ononv part, towards gdntlemon en? titled to odrreapcot and courtesy. ?Ehe feney .prices for real estate in New Y*TOtW reached '?hard pan'* if we may judge fcom the aale of boulevard toto, near tlk> Oefit?I Park, which havo jus* r le price for which they ?WIMiftMli?. There ap-' Tho Patriotic Cordon. The Atlanta Herald publishes the views of Senator Gordon on the present situation, in which ho explainable phi? losophy of tho Grooloy movement, and maintains that it was the necessary fore? runner of a success to be achieved in 1876 upon a platform of just principles and general harmony and peace between all sections of tho country. He thinks that a straight Demoorat can be elected upon it With reference to his own no? mination for tho Vice-Presidency, he used tho following sensible and patriotic language. He says that ho would not, ?'under any circumstances," allow his namo to bo used: "Even if I were nominated I should withdraw my name. My reasons for this statement?to-day mado public for the first time?aro that I believe that a South- , ern man on the ticket would weaken it. I And as much as nersonal ambition might tempt me to yield to tho partial sugges? tions of my friends, I would not, for all the honors in tho gift of tho American Seople, feel that I had boen the means of riving one man from the Bupport of that ticket on whose success deponds the future peaae and prosperity of my coun? try. I have but one object?that is the re-establishment of harmony, of good will, and of good government. To this end nil things olse shall be secondary. I have had letters from committees, from friends and from sympathizer^ asking mo to allow the use ui xuy name in this con? nection.. I now give them, through you, my authorized and unalterable answer. We oocupy to-day .very much the posi? tion assigned in tho East, after the cru? sades, Richmond Ceur de Leon. For nearly 100 years afterwards, when a horse would shy around a bush, tho rider would ask if ho saw a Richard; and mo? thers frightened their babes into quiet by telling them Riohord was coming. Just so these Radicals are attempting to frighten tho North by constantly har? rowing them with a rebel's ghost. This will not have its effect long with peoplo of sense in any section, however. Yet bo powerful is this feeling at prosont that no Southern man who has his coun? try's good at heart will allow himself placed in any position calculated to keep alive these hurtful passions." Gloomy Prospect. Gen. Garfield is distressed at tho pros? pect in tho next Congress of only twenty five Union officers having to face sixty eight gentlemen who served in the Confederate armies. The General's term is "robol armies," but that don't hurt, and will, by and by, be abandoned even by the shallow pates who have long rolled it as a sweet morsel under tho tongue. We are sorry for these truly "loil" ossifers, and would have been pleased had Con? necticut sent back Joe Hawloy to rein? force their slender squad, particularly as he is of the typo whioh repudiates Grant, the third term, the Southern outrage sys ? tem, Ac. But such a life. One goes up and another goes down. The wheel turns, and out leaps a new fate. Loyalty has had a good run, but now that it is detected to be in complicity with fraud, pillage and oppression, it is getting below par. Connecticut foots up a sweeping over? throw of the Republicans. Govornor Ingersoll has 9,528 majority over Greene, and 6,856 majority over both Greene and Smith, the temperance candidate. Tho vote is the largest ever cast in tho State, showing that it is the fairest possible ex? pression of the people on tho issues forced upon thorn from Washington. Gen. Hawley is defeated by 488, and Kellogg by 1,500. Starkweather is re elected by 791, a greatly reduced majo? rity, and Barnum by 2,235, nn increase of some 500. The Senate has 15 Demo? crats and Liberals to 6 Republicans, and tho House has a majority of about 20 of the same faith. It strikes us that if there is one thing that tho Administration can't do, it is running elections at long range from bayonets, unless it be to run them clean out of sight to the other side. South Carolina and Massachusetts.? Tho Boston Advertiser, a Republican paper, says: Two events of recent occurronco have done much to knit together again in mu? tually respectful confidence the people of the two States, which stood shoulder to shoulder in tho days of tho revolution, but have had in the interval much bitter and evor-to-bc-rogretted antagonism. We refer to the return of tho flog of the fam? ous Fifty-fourth Regiment, to be deposit? ed with the rest in the Doric Hall of our State House, and the presentation by citizens of Boston to the Washington Light Guard of Charleston of a national flag emblazoned with the looked shields of the two States. These acts were testi? monials of right feeling and goodwill, and it is to bo hoped they ore sincere tokens of a friendly relation, that, when fully re-established, will never again be disturbed. Let the painful feuds of the past be buried with the cause of them, and the two representative common? wealths of the North end the South join hands, once more and hereafter keep step, as.in the earlier days, irr sorvides and sacrifices for the,national honor and glory. In the bonds of a common patri? otism) there ore for each the satisfaction of liberty, prosperity and peace.. Ana we say, most heartily and most cordially, Amen! Amen! tOi.???ji-an ?.-?

He is known to be the moat 'successful and skillful planter in the country. Of course, these rules will undergo modifi? cations aocording to soils, circum? stances, Ac, bnt are generally applicable anal good. 1. Lay off cotton rows four feet apart with shovel plow, double furrow, and put in fertilizers eight inches deep. 2. Ridge with long scooter, five inches wide. Make the 'bods with turn plow, sub-soil the turn plow furrow; spht out the middles with shovel. Plant with a cotton seed sowor, and cover with a board or harrow. First ploughing?run twenty-two inch sweep with right wing turned down, hoe out to two or threo stalks to the hill every nine inches, ton days after plough? ing. Second ploughing?use same sweep, the right wing turned up a littlo more. Third ploughing?in same way, run a third furrow in middlo to lovel. 3. Cotton standing thick in the drill will be much more forward in maturing. 4. Cotton only requires distanco one way. 6. Bo careful not to cut the roots of cotton. 6. Hnvo a deep water furrow in the spring; work flat by hot weather. 7. On level land run tho rows North and South. 8. A cotton plant, to stand two weeks' drought, must have four inches soil and six inches sub-soil; three weeks, aix inches soil and same sub-soil; four weeks, eight inohes and the same sub soiling. 0. If yon prcparo your land and carry out this plan well, and manure liberally, you may expect from 400 to 1,000 pounds of lint cotton to tho acre. 10. Fertilizers bring a crop of bolls on the cotton early. 11. To improve the cotton plant, select seod every year after tho first picking, up to the middle of October, taking the best stalks and the best bolls on the stalks. 12. On all farms there are some acres that produce cotton bettor than othoM. Seed should always be selected from those spots. 13. Manure everywhere you plow and plant. Your labor will be more certainly rewarded. It pays to use manure, and it pays best on land that pays best with? out it 14. From tho 10th to the 20th of April is the best time to plant cotton. 15. A]>ply one-half of nil labor atnl land to the making of full supplies of all kin ds that are needed on the farm, and enough to spare for those engaged in other pur? suits, and you will have more money than if the whole was employed in mak? ing cotton. 16. Leave no grass to bunch and cause a future bud stand. 17. Plow cotton ovcry throe weeks, and lot the hoes come ten days behind, clear? ing it perfectly. 18. Continue plowing cotton till tho 15th or 20th of August Onco or twice during the season shove out the middle with a furrow, to keep tho land level. 19. The plowing of cotton requires one and a fourth days per acre. 20. Cotton plants commence when small to take on and mature bolls, and continue until they exhaust the soluble matter or exhaust the full capacity of tho land. Two stalks will do that much sooner than one, and will so avoid the drought caterpillar, etc. 21. Cotton will grow after cotton a number of years in succession, with plenty of manure. 22. Make just tho amount of cotton wanted, at paying prices. Keep out of debt, bo tho creditors, make your sup? plies at home; then and only then will yon have power. 23. Rotation of crops, deop and deeper ploughing every year, incorporation of vegetable mold, returning the proceeds of the cotton plant, except the lint, to tho soil, making as much manure as pos? sible, comprise my system of improving lands. 24. One object in cultivation is, to keep the surface broken, so as to lot in light, heat and air. Never stop tho plows for dry weather. 25. My policy has been to make the most money with the least labor and capital, even if it appeared to be waste? ful. 26. The cotton planter should make his whole supplies, everything necessary to run the farm.

When Mr. Beeoher was asked, on the witness stand, the age of one of his chil? dren, he "laid his hand on his ohin, thought for some seconds, but finally laughed, and said he really could not tell."

Duffle "The Story of Volenti ne and His Brother." by Mrs. Oliphant, the authoress of upward of a score of novels and biographies, which aro not surpassed in any of those qualities which go to make good reading, by any authors of to-day. Some authors seem to have no poworof growth; thoy reproduce thorn - selves with] more or loss success. But others improve instead of deteriorating. There is no living novelist in whom this improvement is so marked oh Mrs. Oliphant. Her books aro always charac? terized by thought and earnestness? some purpose making itself manifost in them ;beyond that of merely striking the fancies of her roaders, or gaining their attention for a moment. Her pre? sent novol is published by the Harpers, at 75 cents, and can be obtained from Mr. Duffle, at publisher*' price. Tax Fair.?Tho festival for the benefit of the Palmetto Orphan Homo was inau? gurated at Irwin's Hall, last evening, at 6 o'clock, under tho auspices of those de? voted and ever-willing workers in acts of charity and bonevolence, the ladies. They were earnestly seconded in their efforts by a management of gentlemen. Wkon wo ontored the hall we found it filled to its capacity with matrons and misses, gray-haired sires and moustached young gentlemen, vieing with eaoh other to make the entertainment a pleasure and a success. The promenaders with their busy fans and their button-hole bouquets found the time gliding peace? fully away, and nevor Hcemed to know that any one was present save them? selves. All went as merry as a wedding feast. On entering the hall we discovered table No. 1, containing fancy and plain, large and small cakes. Here we found Misses Coy Youmans, Bessie Kinard, Fannie Wright, Mamie Moses, Frankie H?ge, Nein Ria Youmans and Eleanor Barn well making quick and profitable sales, aided by Mrs. Youmans and Miss Susie Wyatt Coffoo tables fronted the larger table here as elsowhcro throughout the hall. No. 2, the fruit table, was presided over by Misses Ella Etter, Lula and Li 1 lie Black, Eunice Barnes, Ida Hendrix, Mrs. Elmorc and Mrs. Glass. No. 3, ice cream and strawberries, was superintended by Mrs. Wm. Peck and Misses Fannie Livingston, Annie Peck, Lina Peck, Lena McDonald and Clara Franck. No. 4 was at the head of the hall, and was known as the flower table, where bouquets of all sizes and shapes, of sweetly perfumed offerings from Flora's early growth, were to be obtained from Misses Alice LoWe, Fannie May rant, Lizzie Baldwin, Katie Berry and Miss Thompson. No. 5 was a substantial table, laden with meats of various kinds, which were served to the patrons of the table by Mrs. Berry, Misses Mary McKenzie, Rosa Clayton and Sallic Coloman. No. C was a table of fancy articles, presided over by Misses Julia McKenzie, May Bailey, Sudie Gill, Maggie, Addio and Mrs. J. A- Selby. At, No. 7 wo found another tempting supply of cakes, which were disposed of by Mrs. Pope, Mrs. C. Walker, Misses Mary Simonton, Mary and Lou Menden? hall, Minnie and Fannie Melton. No. 8, except No. 3, was the coolest table in the house, for here we found ice cold lemonade, served to thirsty mortals by Misses Alice McKenzie, Fannie Hug gins, Rosa Hix, Sophie Eisenmann, Jennie Gibbes and Miss Bootwright Over the stage, whore the string band of the 18th Infantry was furnishing con? cords of sweet strains, was to be seen in largo green letters "God help the or? phans;" and turn to view the other end of the hall, the same inscription was to be seen. The gas fixtures and hall sup? ports woro beautifully festooned with flowers and evergreens. About the centre of the hall we ob? served the comptroller of the currency, where tho money changing and ticket purchasing was Dunn, and right well, too. We noticed among those present artists and artificers, belles and beaux, chemists and compositors, doctors and divines, editors and eaters, (the some,) factors { and fiddlers, Grangers and grocers, I lawyers and litigants, merchants, me? chanics and middle men, and so on down through the alphabetical list of trades and professions; all seeming to enjoy themselves to their heart's con? tent Tho fair was, as we predicted, a grand success, and wo havo no doubt a hand? some sum will be reaped for the benefit of the orphans, as, notwithstanding ample preparations had been made in anticipa? tion of a largo attendance, early in the evening, nearly all the tables were baro of eatables. Tho ladies and gentlemen who con? ducted tho fair desewve great praise for their most successful efforts, and those who were present will receive tho hearty thanks of the managers and tho orphans. It was proposed to hold the fair but one evening, but owing to the liberal patron? age whioh tho festival received, the managers have made arrangements to continue it this afternoon. The fair will be opened again to-day from 11 to 2 o'clock?just in time for the enjoyment of a hearty dinner. Since writing the above, we learn that tho reooipts of the evening amounted to $395.

Her manner is very lady-like, her gesticulation good, her voice flexible and well modulated. She spoke without note's, with great fluency and self-possession, and with considerable dramatic effect The por? trait she drew of her heroine, the unfor? tunate Maid of Orleans, was certainly very beautiful; and as she detailed the cruel sufferings she was subjected to, she seemed to sink the orator into the actress, so that one could almost feel that he was witnessing the scene, so vividly was it portrayed.?WilmlngionJowrnaL^ ?.?-?? ^?-1?

Alley, Marshal of Spartanbnrg, came to Greenville on the 12 o'clock train on Wednesday. He arrested Alfred Walker, the brutal murderer of Rev. J. Claudius Miller, in Union County, the night before. On the arrival of Capt ^ Alley in Greenville, he kept close in hin ' room till night, when he sallied forth to arrest another of. the gang. About 9 o'clock, assisted by Capt Greer, he pro? ceeded to the house of Wright Sullivan, who lives in a small house in the Eastern part of the city, where Sullivan was found preparing for a quiet night's rest When- told by Capt Alley that ?1 want, you," he trembled like an aspen, and in? quired what Capt Alley wanted with him. He was told of the capture of Alfred Walker, when he remarked that I he had often been taken for the man "who went with. Alfred Walker.'* Ho made, no resistance, however, and. wok taken to the County jail. Wright Sulli? van yesterday confessed that he was one of the gong of murderers and thieves* and is ready to tell everything. He' "in said to be one of the most infernal scoundrels in the country. Has been convicted of murder, and sentenced to be hung, and has been in the peniten? tiary and pardoned out by the immacu? late F. J.-Moses, Jr.?Greenville News. General Hawley's last charge on tho enemy was brave and desperate "as Ney's dash of the Old Guard at Waterloo, and just as effectual. Because'tho South has 1 sent sixty-eight Confederate soldiers to the House, he insisted that one more should be added in himself to the "piti? ful minority" of twenty-five soldiers of the Union already elected. Hawley, like Ney, was too late with this assault Demagogues have played it threadbare before he seized upon it, and its force was greatly abated by his failure to tell that in .the last Congress he was in politi? cal accord, on most questions, with a scoro or two of Confederate soldiers who were pardoned because they added camp-plundering to treason. Will not so brave and faithful a soldier as General Hawley soon appreciate that the whole people of this country wont peace? He will have leisure moments now to learn this lesson, and the 'sooner he acquires , it the sooner will he reach to his just I stature as a national leader of the future.1 [Philadelphia Times.
