AT THE LAYING OF THE CORNER
ATONE Olk THE FAIR BUILD
v':- ? iNG, AUGUST 9T?, 1873.
in| 4?l> Gkntlemkn : I was
t^Mfstoft recently, by kind friends in
in a remote county, to address them,
ibut I reapcctfully declined, believing
??hat the performance of such dirties
should !*e left to younger and abler
mien; but when the request c&tue
rfrom my friends ncighbors-^-tbe
?citbtans of Or&iigeburg Couuty?from
'whom I have received so many kiml
jies&ij I could not refuse, ami proceed
lr pleasure but with ?MKdeuee to
perform the duty assigned me:
? A diMitijzuihhcd Hornau orator oeaac
congratulated himself ittxt tho great
Pompty ?ras tlve subject of hia^ die

and u#?5 fwreading interest than Potuj

?S ?tot rtlhat a subject is wanted suggest
ing ttfiwughts of profound interest to all,
Ibut because the eloquent Cicero is not
here to speak of the husbandman, hi*
green fields and his rewarding harvests.
The erection of paus nobl? building
will be tbc achievement .of;* wi*o fore
cast, ap4 tho .energy with which your
ftfcore have keen pr^oeceutcd, nnd tho

which the operative Mason completes?
?fob? laid tbc corncr:stono of tho firft
gMnt temple dedicated to the Giver of
all our good and perfect gifts-? impart
to tho occasion a fit and touching
solemnity. How well-timed have your
efforts been commenced in adyjiqoing tho
best interests of the State I Your
country had just been devastated, your
fields laid watte, and your labor dis
<0ignbi*cd, and who was to build up tho
waste place's7? The farmer, the merch
ant, the mechanic, tho men of all pro
fessions nnd pursuits, evon he who min
isters end serves tho altar, were left
comparatively helpless. In this com
mon calamity, few desponded iu the
/struggle to effect a renovation which was
to be accomplished by the united enorgy
of *H. None, however, more resolutely
renewed their occupation than tho far
mer to whom all looked with auxicty
for their daily bread. Knowing that timo
it) the great innovator, you have wisely
resolved no longer to eoutinuo to walk
implicitly iu the lootatcps of your fathers,
buf havo sought other paths that lead
nioro directly to success. You are no
longer ?naonsiblc to jha great results
that eei?neo lias achieved in all the pur
suit* of life, and arc ready to invoke bur
strong hand to uphold and load you
safely on your journey. ? Yen! ?>'?/ * >

This intellectual progression in tho
arts hod sofeniek ?TuarVeitous indeed,
and yon must be always ready to avail
yourffclt of those discoveries .which
economize your time nnd abridge your
labor, elao -yon spurn the gift' if ytfor1

prime business of-, life?you ioed tho
hungry?-youclothe tho, naked-?and the
great enterprise* of .the day a?-e indirect
ly dependent upou you. ! The profit of
the earth is for nil?the king himself is
served by. the field. Thia beiog the
mission of the husbandman, the general
purveyor oF mankind, you sh?old over
net with an' abiding sense of the duties
you owe not'only to yourselves, but to
the community, and embrace and cmploy
every improvement which can old your
search into the reason of theao things,
and do not forego tho precept, example
aud experience of tho thoughtful in
every department Of husbandry, or you
? will discover, when tho harvest is ended,
that your barns arc empty.
Thesuu knowledge is:pouting rays of
\ light on every path of hid ust ry, and ho
who will walk by tho glimeriug light of
tho moon will be lost in those by-ways
that the Wise have long abandoned;
From the seaboard to the mountains, tho
general acclaim is progress! Not the
fruitless progress of a dreaming innova
tor, hut an advance supported by the sure
? deductions of reason. If knowlcdgo is
' power, bo instructed in tile groat lessons
fho teaches, and you will then bo able to
accommodate yourselves to tho changes
; around yod~uot the novelties of an idlo
brain, but ebauges effected by the en ?
lightened wisdom of a profoundly in
quiring aad progressive age. This is
not the. <?jy ?f utage coaches utxA^?'t

Our own advance has not been by !
slow gradations, as in ancient times, j
but by rapid step?; and although he \
may not inquire wisely uhu ?ays tbut
that the former *loys axe better than
these, yet us iiot repudiate the
treasures uuich baivo been transmitted
la us. Upon this foundation modern
?civilization is rcwexL aud you trill not
reject iimtructiou because it com is from
.'.i trcaaotc age; wo must cLeiige with
time, waiich duui^tw all things, or lin
ger in tho race helpless and forgotten.
Applyihce? principles to the business of
tho agrtcaiurist ami inquire if it is wise
j according do tho vicious system hereto
* fisrc adopted, to exhaust tho virgin soil
without on c&ort to sustain aad restore
it, and to Leave tlve old field forever
fallow aud abandoned, which must result
ia failure t If you aid not your ttcrilo
field, you will force a barren soil fur
scanty bread. Is it judicious to incur
the expense of labor aud time iu remov
ing tho for oat for new fields no better
than tho old, if tho means of icuovation
can be employed't All animal life is sus
tained by food, and shall it bo withheld
' from tho plant that feeds mankind ?
Tho analogy is clear and the logical con
clusion follows, that unless you tevivo
your barren lands with suitable manures
your labor will be in vaiu. Tho nature
and tho value of the various fertilizers
and their application to tho differont
soils have bcou taught us aud have been
tested by thoespcrienco of our planters;
nnd by tho judicious use of thorn you
will become tho competitors of thoso
whose cultivation is couduolcd ou ra
tional principles. A single instance
will give you tho results of the old aud
new methods of tillage.
A century ago, England produced
16,000,000 bushols of wheat annually.
Since 1837 sho bag expended 8150,000,
000 in bone iertiilizcrg, aud now eho
produces annually 1,000,000,000 bush
els of wheat. Look at that picturo tbon
at this. This is a practical truth, tho
logic or facta, und should iuduco you to
follow in tho rtcps of a country that, by
an eulightvued husbandry, bus made i
Albion a garden. Yob, 6uc!i oultin

fertilizers within your reach you possess,

fplly has a kind Providence provided
for oil our wants, and yet wo wilt n$jfe;j

All, and shall not thoso who partake of
her bounty furnish hor with food in the .

doomed to disappointment when the
autumn oomcs; the deluded man attri

Behold his.neighbor,,who in the morirV

withholds not his hand?who observes
not the Wind when ho sows nor regards

with His seed and ripen with the fulfil

cato in this connection to refer to yo?r
successfa! and intelligent president, wbe

a benefactor, who baa made the old Geld

with golden sheafs. Follow his precept
and example and that of our outorpris
! ing citizens, and when tho summer is
euded you too will rejoico in the bouu
, tiful rewardsof industry and intelligence.
Of all men, none dispense thoir knowl
edge moro freely than the farmer; with.
. him it is a luxury to do good.
It is with diffidence that I have dwelt
oa tfyese things, a kuowlcdge of which
odierfl all arouud mc possess in such ?
large measure. Uut allow ino briefly to
refer to other topics that descrvo your
consideration. Is it wise to appropri
ate so many broad acres to the cultiva
tion of cotton '{ Or, which is an equiva
lent inquiry, can the planter prosper
who purchases his corn in Baltimore
aud his bacou in Cincinnati ? Fur if
you do uot make it, to that it must como
at last. Such bread and moat come to
you loaded with cxpeuso of transporta
tion, commissions, and tho merchant's
profits. Can you stock your furm if
you buy your graiu 7 I submit these
queries to your decision.
lias not tho time come, fellow-citi
zens, when you should consider the im -
? portanco of diversifying your pursuits
^jth tho introduction of other things
adapted to our soil and climate ? May
wo not indulge tho hope that tho day is
not distant when wc shall not only rc-t
undor our own vino and fig treo, but
when the puro juice of our grapo will
supersede the manufactured poisons that
degrade and destroy? [Applause.]
One of your worthy directors is a pioneer
in this branch of iudustry, and his efforts
should be applauded and his enterprise
encouraged.
If the progress ia tho uso aud applica
tion of manures lias bcou rapid and reno
vating, there are other causes contribu
ting to the increased productions of our
lands. Tho mcchnuie, by his artistic
skill, is your benefactor by the invention
of new and tho improvement of old im
plements in ovcry department of iudui
try. Within a few years tho number
of labor-saving machines would tax
your eredulity. These innovations have
occurred within tho lifo of mnuy here
present, whose memory cau touoh both
periods. Fifty years ago tho shovel
plough and bull touguo wcro tho only
instruments used to brouk tho soil for
tillage?'ovcu tho swoop was a novelty.
Now tho number of implements used in
planting the seed, cultivating the crop
and gathering it, is legion.
If you do not enjoy these benefits,
you are ?'ify hair^'if'' far&er:nr^fe'^o\k
would keep ?p with the age l\4 which?
you live, you must | read, think and
*<Jptlfp.r freely am?ng'yomtfolTedi. I .will?
not dwell on these things. One -?hofft-,

you have commenced,'and these spacious
