Tho Union-Herald is verj enthu siastic in urging tho Legislature to make provision for all tho negroes who are leaving Georgia, Alabama and other States to settle in South Carolina, > Would that our farmers would im bibe a similar spirit and cut up their lands in small tracts and invite im migrants from _Geriunny, England, Ireland and the North to cotuo and settle them. Wo want our resources developed, and as color should be no consideration, we snpposo the whites would be welcome too, especially as land owners. Ii the Logislaturo won't act, let ns act ourielvcs, TUB GOVERNOR'S MESSAGE. Gov* Chamberlain's last message to the Legislature exhibited a genuine spirit of reform. He renews many of the recommendations of his inaugural, such as the registration of electors, and the election of justices of the peace in accordance with the require ments of the constitution. Ho also recommends strongly tho enacting of a law putting into effect the syst&m of cumulative voting in elections of in corporated cities or towns, and thus testing the theory upon a' small scale before trying it over the whole State. So far Chamberlain has made .a good governor, and if he continues ou this line ho will be supported by con servatives as well as republicans. THE PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE. President Grant's message on Lou isiana affairs is but another exhibition of his glaring mediocrity and inten sity of feeling against the people of the South. In spite of his boasted firmness rit is nothing but a weak apology for his unconstitutional ac tions, and shows plainly that he is not nt caso in his position. He feigns be lief: in all the stories of Southern out rages, and thus hopes to blind the people, if he cannot quiet his con science. It is a dangerous thing to tamper with liberty, and the republican party will find it so to their sorrow. HUMBERT AND ANDREWS AGAIN. A committee of the Senate, com posed of Whittcniore, Smalls and Smith, came to our town on last Thursday to investigate the charges of J. L. Humbert against T. G. An drews. Considering the character of "Whittcniore of cadet-ship renown, it was naturally thought by our citizens that the scheme was to whitewash the whole affair for the reputation of the Senate and of the party. By the published proceedings, however, in the News and Courier, things have taken quite an unexpected turn. The committee seems to have been some what divided. Smalls is reported in his discussion ns saying that "Hum bert proved everything that had been charged against Andrews." Whitte more and the other member of the committee seem to have been opposed to Smalls in the work, although it does not appear whether they deny his statements. Strange to say, at the instance of Whittcniore two conservative rnem sbcrs have been added to the commit tee, and there seems to be an earnest -effort to get the testimony of Humbert before l.o is convicted. The committee ns now constituted arrived in town on Monday, and wo hope before we go to press to give the result of their investigations. As we go to press we learn from a dispatch the News and Courier that they have not agreed upon a re port. We are waiting for a lull de velopment of the facts before giving .our individual views. LKCIlShATIVK. A resolution of Dr. Muller, conserv ative, for the general assembly to ad journ on February 32th was adopted, after discussion, and sei t to the .sonnte. The .silly proposition of ?imkins to levy a lax of two mills to support the (Unemployed negroes of Edgcfield was fortunately voted down. Puucnn introduced a bill to rebate the tuxes on property destroyed by the (Orangeburg fi?e. .NEWS ITEMS. The aftnivcwai'y c-f tho battle of Cowpcns was celebrated by the Washington Light Infantry, who proceeded to tho grounds in Spartntihtirg county, and Bpent tho day in appropriate ceremonies. Addresses were de livered by ex-'Japtain Hon. W. D. Porter, Ensign T. Y. Simons, Dr. J. D. Bruns and many others. An ode prepared by Profes sor S. Henry Dickson was also recited. The grand jury of the United States court in Mobile fouud no indictment against the Sumter county prisoner* %nor against those arrested in Mobilo charged with kill ing two negroes on election day. The jury consisted of twenty-three men, the majority of whom were radicals, and five of the ma- j jority blacks, The caucus of republican senators held in Washington on Saturdny, without adopting a resolution to that effect, practically en dorsed the President's action with regard to Louisiana. A cold-blooded murder was committed on tho 5th near Little River, Marion county. A man by the name of Jesse Lo Gleite went in punrnit of another by tho name of David Tiawick and deliberately shot and killed him. The message of Governor Smith is cheer ing for Georgia. It shows that there is a balance of $1,0011,128 in the treasury, nnd toat the affairs of tho State uro in prosper ous condition, nnd concludes in just denun ciation of the Federal authorities for their unprecedented usurpation of power. General A. C. Garlington, formerly of j South Curolinn, has removed from Atlanta to Griffin, nnd become the editor of the Grijfln Mcsscnge.i. The Union-Herald says: "There are sev eral young men on the conservative side of the house that are a credit to the Legisla ture." A special dispatch from New Orlean.s says, "Sheridan remains in his hotel prepar ing reports of outrages." "The report of the Freedtnen'u Savings and Trust Company," says a Washington correspondent, "has at last got into print, nnd will stand forth as the h?hlest nnd most wicked swindle of all swindles that have come to light in this era of political nnd financial fraud." To the members of the S. C. Monumental Atta. ciation in Orungcburg County, und lo the Public generally, We, the undersigned, beg leave to return our thanks to the public of Ornngeburg county and town for their liberal patronage of our refreshment tables and stand nt our lato Fair. We.would especially thank tho ladies on tho Serving Committees nt the tables, and their young lady assistants, for their valu able services rendered, also, all contributors to the Enid tables. We are nlso indebted to the Southern Express Company, and Western Union Tel egraph Company for favors received. ? Tho gross proceeds of our tables amounted to $410; of this amount $H)() was consumed in necessary expenses. Resides this, the sum of $83 was paid to the Directors pf the Or angeburg County Fair Association as the percentage due them for the use of their rooms, and the balance of ?232.86 was duly forwartled to Columbia und has been ttc knowled by the secretary and treasurer of | the South Carolina Monument Association. In addition to this the sum of $S8 was raised by subscription for the monument which was also forwarded together with list of subscribers. These sums, with over two hundred dollars raised by subscription by the ladies of the Orangeburg branch of the Monument Association several years ago, makes up a contribution through the ladies of ihid county to our State monument of over $500 00. If the other counties do as well ns this, the monument to the memory of onr gubant dead will soon be raised. Mrs. T. K. Lkoark, "j Mus. j. V. Gi.ovkr, > Committee. Mns. Mortimew Glover. J LINES On the Death of Mrs. Olivia C Hoi man, who Died at her Residence in the Fork on the lOf/i day of January, 1875. No longer need of affections care Until the worn and still form resting there; Tbc tireless vigils of love are past, And the grave hath claimed its own at last. Smooth the soft eye, the placid brow? Peace like a halo enwreaths it now; The labored breathing, the moan of pain, Shall never yotu fond hearts rend again. Now onward, with slow and gentle tread, Solemnly bearing the holy dead With pule hands folded over her breast Reverently, tenderly lay her to rest. The golden beams of the setting sun? Meet type of the brief life-journey done? Like the light of hope dispel Is the gloom That lieth a pall on the waiting tomb. The chinch of her love breathes a holy spell Over that sacred and lonely dell, And the fading waves of the flowing river, And all her sorrows, have ceased forever. Jan. 11, 1875. S. T.

ONLY FORTY DOLLARS A TON GDANAIIaNI GUANO, An important natural Guano?a gcrt?inej Animal Deposit. A cargo of 500 tons now on the woy to thin port. This gliano gave ?rcat satisfaction In Virginia and North 'arolina the past season. Circular and cer tificates sent on application. Prof. Wilson, of Baltimore, Md., says of this guano: "By a critical examination of the analysis of tho various cargoes vou have imported, a striking feature is du: great regularity in tht percentage of tho impor tant constituents ss%:itial_ for tho produc tion of all crops." Prof. F. A. Gcnth, of Philadelphia, Pcnn., says: "The guano is evidently of animal or igin, and tho minute hones which were dis covered in the Bame indicate that it is the result of the decay of bat.*, mire, Ac. The quantity of organic matter which is still present is about 12 per cent., and this yields about 2} per cent of ammonia, i A portion of the nitrogen is present as nitric, acid, of which about 3 per cent, were found. AH tho nitrogen present would be equivalent to about :n per cent, of ammonia. The piios pboricacid in ihe guana averaged about 12} percent., equal to 27.3 per cent, of Bone Phosphate. A considerable quantity of the phosphoric acid, however, is present as so called neutral Phosphate of Lime, which, l>cing slightly solublo in water, renders the Guano es quick in junction as a correspond ing quantity of Superphospates would do. The small percentage of potash which wns found in analysis adds to its value. From all tho experiments which I have made of the Guanahani Guano no doubt can exist that it is a valuable manure." Prof. H. 0 White, of the Goorgia State Agricultural Society, says: "A? shown by the analysis, this guano contains, in good proportion, all the elements which are gen erally considered as of value for plant food, and the forms and combinations in which they are'present are such as to render them available to and assimilable by the plant, I should judge that the proper use of tins ar ticle for purposes of fertilization would be attended with great profit." Prof. Charles U. bhepard, Jr., in a recent nnalysis of thi-i Guano, says: 'This Guano (of animal origin) would appear from its physical and chemical properties to answer every reasonable expectation of a chemical manure."
