Ed non 1‘koi'i.k; | Yuur klnd and flat- terlng coninfept* on our conversation of soiiieiime ago, in your “Leader” of last week, with your consult valla for Vni« remarks from me. W hen 1 told you that I intended to double my cot ton acreage next, year I neglected to mention the tact that my grain crop would also he proportionately ‘ncreas. ed. I am fully aware that mixed farm ing is the only trujf, system of farming here or elsewhere. Rut. I utii sanguine about cotton next year, ami It behooves every farmer in Ifai nwell.

The Conwnittec on Myle ami Revision is busily engaged h* dressing up the ordinanees and next week the Copveiithm will reassemble, ratify its work and njourn sine dje. That is tlie pTrogramme at Ibis writing. The daily p*|>ers that have kept .-clone watch on tlie proceedings of the Coiivciitioii speak approvingly of most of its work, before verv long the whole Constitution will be published uffd then the public will he able to Judge of its iiHH'its and demerits. We have Imen otherwise too busy to keep fully up with ;its work. Among the later more important principles udopted are tlie follow ing : Tbe Supremo Court slmll consist of four judges, to serve* for eight years, while the Circuit Judges will hold four years. The Legislature will continue to elect Judges. Circuit Judges are forbidden to charge as m the facts. County Courts with iimlt»Hl jurisdic tion may ha organized, upon the vote of the people of each county through the Legislature. Judges cannot com mit prisoners to the i^i uiti-iUiary for contempt of court, w ithout trial by jury. The section against lynching pro vides that the Sheriff or other officer having the prisoner iu custody shall he removed .’Upon true bill being found and disqualilied for holding any future office ulilea* pardoned by I lie Governor.

Again our cotton can be put on the murket next fall by Oct .1st. Kv planting early, using commercial fertilizers to a limited ex tent, work the crop rapidly, we can sell our next crop before the bulk of the cotton begins to move to market. It is a well known fact that the Western crop can't be put on the market as soon as ours. There, early in tlie season, the bent is so intense till the pickers can’t stand !l. Then the corn crop of tlrat section Is fqrced to be gathered lit September on account of weevils, etc., In the I'iedmonlreegion, and oven west of us, tho cotton crop is fully a month . later than ours. So if a crop of even H 10,000,000 bales be made next year, the Ham well couutv farmer that “humps’' himself need not he burl by the fall It would cause, because with ordinary seasons for picking tlie bulk of the crop can be marketed by October. Trtre enough the fertile"West aver ages more corn and more cotton alao to Ihe acre than we do. but when we com pare the!Fay*tern with ours, we are far better satisfied. There labor is scarce and hight here labor is ubUndant and cheap. There they can only work when “the season is in the ground just right;” lie re we ate rarely hindered. There they can only cultivate 2t) acres to the mule; hero we work twice that atrnmtnt. They pay for gi nning a bale there; we pay f 1 here. There w age- workers__get jl5 and f20 per month; here wo pay $5 and ?7. There they pay never less than 50 cents and often $1 115 and ’’() cents. True Uiey have no phosphate bills, but wc, by using only a limited amount, can get along with out owing iiiucli for that commodity I have used from 50 ;o 000 pounds of fertilizers per acre and 1 Hud the spialler quantity most profitable. I have nbiding faith in cotton. True it has been below the cost of pro duction, but now it is at a paying basis, and 1 see no reason wiiy it won’t re main so for some years to come. At any rate ,1 am going to plant for the record breaking crop next year. The Editor’* “Young Farmer Friend.” LOST.

TALK FROM TEXAS. The last issue of the Baptist Courier has a letter written from AV'hituey, Texas, by Kev. L. L. Sams, a South Car olinian doing missionary work in the lone star State. The following extract from that letter proves beyond question that Bte older Atlantic State* can not compete in cheapness of cotton pro ductive with that big actid summon wealth: The State of Texas ha* in area more square mile* than Georgia, Flori da, South aiid North Carolina, Virginia and West Virginia combined.* So \ou see she is nu empire bv herself, bav^ig enough territory to Snake six large Mates.'giving us representation in the government sutllcientot rega'ii- oUr Houlhern ante-bellum prestige.

Utrjc p p-1 ■ ■ 3Bt~itIu itis side._ aliamc upon tlie.f—-.-A;. — ^ itiood and chivalry of South Caro* Novl.t Piaster cotnmeudatioii that the law against car rying concealed weapons be so amend ed ns to Hx the puiiiNbmeiit at Hue and imprisonment, and not to leave it iu the discretion of the court, which always means that the white man will get off with a Hue, while the negrorei ho I* un able to pay goes to the 'penitentiary. That was the practical working of the law in the past, until jurisdiction was givyn tos.he trial justices, which killed the law itself. The monstrous evil of carrying concealed weapons' is jiervad- ingevery class of society. Judge Beu- et was right In say ing^imy consterna tion would take place if ho ordered the .* erilf to search for concealed weapons, for men go I nth the temples of justice with deadly weapons concealed about IbeiT persons. Lawyers, clients, jurors, witnesses arid spectators are guilty of this cow ardly practice. Only a few days ago we saw a man w ithiu ten feet of Judge lleiiet, who had a pistol buckled around his person', and an accidental tiftMigjjf bis coat tail revealed the wea man hood and chivalry Him when yemng .Siieu are taught to hide a murderous v.-oaoou upon 'their pel-son*, knowing that they krecompar atively safe from the penalty of the law against this crime, because public sen timent does not compel the enforce ment of the l^w. Courts and juries ought to help change this sentiment', and the Legislature shouli heed the suggestion made by the grand jury, which would bring into operation a wholesome restraint that is sorely needed at thhiTime. . (ircenviHle-Cbunty can well afford to take .the lead iu this matter, as we are rapidly gaining a most unenviable rep utation for frequent murders in city and county. The ever-present pistol Is the cause of ninc-teuth* of such-crimes, and any diminution of their presence will reduce the number of murder eases in our courts, while there will be fewer widows ami orphans thrown upon the cold charities of the world. The Greenville delegation in the General Assembly cannot render a belter ser vice to their :oiist1tueutH and to the people at large than by uniting their effort* in making a*.law for the sup- piession of this crime-against civiliza tion.—Greenville Mountaineer. the Estate of Elizabeth I'riester, East by lauds of tlie Estate of Wilson Wil liams, SomL by land* df J.
