The mutual rights, duties and liabilities of the parties, and the iemedy for their cuforccuicu.t when violated is a faithful so iree JPstrife aeff litigation. To avoid tuoh dMHudKIes *r te ansero a safe at.d speedj redress against offenders, wc ad- vi„e our readers to maiett an invariable rule to enter into writtawoufrads before witnesses specifying clearly the terms of the contract. Wherever this is doM. ^jtber the landlord, tenant or laborer, etitt have an cssy remedy for violations of the contract, under the pro visions of an Act to protect laborers and persons working under eonlraut on sbares of crops. The 4th section of that Act makes its criminal offence i» cither pnrty to the contract to violate its provioions, by fraudulently dis- posiog’of or removing the crop before division or by refusing to perform the labor or fulfil the conditions of the contract, and punishes the offender by fine or imprisonment on con viction before a oompete«t Court. We regard in one of the best laws for the times, that ould pc framed, and we want our readers to understand that it relates to and governs written contracts emty amdjthein duly witness ed. One half of the (JiCicuItigg between les sors and leases result fromjiegRgatice in mak ing their contracts. After they get into trouble they seek a lawyer and find, if any, tli-re is but a slim remedy. They have no contract, because they each thought the other would act right, and even then each perhaps thinks he is acting fairly, having forgotten or misunderstood the terms of the original agreement. Write your contracts hcroafter and have them signed and witnessed in du plicate and you will fee! yourself more repaid by freedom from any anxiety in the coming settlement.”—Keoiccr Courier. “Welals Xectv Assoflatloii.” This religious body, souvened at the Bap tist Chu.ch hero, on Saturday.

It was resolved that the iuteacst of-Charlotte and Georgetown, and the inter vening counties, required that the rail road of the route proposed via Bishopville to i Charlotte should be built. Committees were appointed to petition the North and South Carolina Legislatures for the charters neces. sary. Mr. John A. Owens, of Bishopyille, said that subscriptions to the extent of 8125,- 000 could be obtained in Clarendon and Sumter counties for this enterprise. Darlington S. C. \ November, 15th. 1869. j Mr. Editor :—What about the Factory ? It is known in the country that the Compa ny is organized but we do not see notice of it in the papers. Let the gentlemen who are authorized, keep a notice in the papers all the time so that our thrifty farmers who have a surplus capital on baud may see for themselves where to invest it to advantage. I say to advantage because I know of no the justice of suffering alone, while the lead- TUe Ikrawback Frauds. New York, Nov. 25.—The Tribune says editorially : “The first testimony iu the draw backs frauds w T as taken on Saturday, and so far opens the case that the public cau name the principal conspirators. These frauds have been going on for five or six years, and the parties in the work must have, robbed the Treasury of a vast amount of money. Samuel T. Bratchford was the leading spirit his assistants being R. B. Ealdwell & Co., customhouse brokers; Romcyn, Mulligan & Fr .neis, and Howard, a clerk in the Reve nue at Washington. The most important witness thus far is a clerk named Korne, who was familiar with all the transactions, and was an interested party to some extent. He was arrested last January, but not liking The meeting was we!! represented, and displayed unusual iuterukt in the great sub jects of its consideration. Some important charges, in the course of business, hereafter to be pursued in the body, were adopted, which, it Ls believed, will result in much good. other investment that with good management would give such a large percentage profit. Moreover a factory would be of advantage as a market for raw cotton. In substantia tion of this I quote from the Augusta Geor gia Chronical aud Sentinel which says : “There are twelve Cottou Mills in the re gion which drew their supplies from this market.They aggregate 70.000 spindles and 16.000 Looms, demanding a minimum aver age for daily supplies of more than 90 hides of rate cotton. All these Mills arc prosper ous and prospering. The Augusta Factory- pays its stock-holders regular quarterly di vidends of 5 per cent, or 20 percent per an num. The established dividend of the Granltc- ville Factory is 8 per cent : all profits oucr and above this sum arc held as a reserve thud andjs t apart as a banking capital, made necessary by the existed limited National Bank Capital which has been wisely and profitably pursued. We derive this evidence of the prosperity of these Mills from their regular reports.” Eight bales of cotton per day used bv cue Factory ! Three hundred working days in a year, and We have one mill, a market for 2400 bales. Who would have the® - ‘ft much ?

I feel a great interest in this masufattur- ing ^movement, because we can't compute with the Mississippi valley and the South west in producing cotton, our staple.

Cotton. Wc have received the “Monthly Report of the Department of Agriculture for Octo ber,” and extract the follfcwujg summary of its observations on the cotton crop of the year: The area of cotton cultivation w [ > s increas ed last spring fully sixteen per cent. More than a million ot Seres were added to the cul tivated area. Fertilizers were liberally used in the Atlantic States, and improved imple ments were to some extent employed. These facts were taken as sure evidence of a large crop. As the season progressed, serious drawbacks appeared. It cannot be denied that the loss by drought has been severe in the Carolina? and (ksorgia, greatly feduccing the yield otril! upland soils of medinmTfopth and fjHaiity, causing thq blooms andojonng bolls to fall, stopping the growth of the plant and forcing into too early maturity the morn advanced bolls.

There is no reason to believe, ironi an ex amination of the October report, that the preliminary and conditional estimate here tofore made of 2, 750,000 bales—the only one made this season—newspaper reports to the contrary notwithstanding—can be ex ceeded. In the next report will be given a can we do (What do we now?) when the I detailed summ«ry of the yield, after final rc gone. Not so. He is determined the world shall hear from him; and in default of any real grievance, he is quite equal to the task of inventing one. His latest blast is against the Administration for not protecting his darling negro. It is not easy to tell exactly what Wendell wants, but if we are to draw any inference from this last phillippic, it would seem that our philanthropist will not be satisfied with anything short of having the head of every “rebel” or “cx-rebcl” cut off, aud the negro enthroned supreme in the White Houoo. And why all this ? “Because,” says Wen dell Phillips; “the Ku-ktux lately shot all the leading hands on the plantations in five counties in South Carolina, and so frighten ed all the rest from voting.” It is somewhat singular that wc did not hear anything of this remarkable massacre at the time of its occurrence. We are almost tempted to believe that the whole story had its origin in the fertile and negromaniae fan cy of Mr. Phillips. Wendell Phillips and Parker Pillsbnry are thorns in the flesh to the Radical politi cians; and no wonder, these two fanatics arc so very imprudent, and so thoroughly ira- prsetical.” The Steamer Stonewall, was burned on the Mississippi, forty-five miles above Cairo, and over 200 lives were lost. The fire is said to have originated from a candle by which the Deck passengers were playing cards near some hay. C O Ivl dVT E E, G I H E . Charleston Market.

It says: We are glad to see that Commissioner De lano is detormined to correct abuses of this description. He has resolved shat the in come returns of last year shall have a thor ough overhouiing. To this end officers have been detailed to this special duty, and are now at work in all the leading cities of the country. Their advent in this city, is we understand, creating quite a sensation among those who have learned how to live in brown stone houses, and keep handsome equipages without possesiug any income. We trust the investigation will be thorough and ex haustive. When it conies to ho understood that every doubtful return is to be inucsti- gated, and that the inquiry will not necessa rily end with the filing of the return in the Assessor’s office, the receipts of the Govern ment from this source will be largely increased. If Commissioner Delano will carefully but pcrsistantly follow up the investigation lie has begun, we have no doubt next year will witness an increase of the revenue from in- Com- s of net less than ten millions of dollars. to in Utwav-y enterprise last they are distribut or choice Standard works free to .Magazine.

Florida, that State of flowers, per petual bloom, aud attractions too numerous to mention, is peculiarly eursml. Her Governor is a carpet-bagger named Red, a resident of Wisconsin, and one of the biggest social, moral, political, financial, ex ecutive and general “dead-beats.” we know of. That is, he is one of the bugs that fat ten so well on the v.nc of Republicanism, leaving nothing but slime to luark his course. Wej knew him in Wisconsin, years atro, when he wouid ride in the closet of a railroad ear to escape the conductor when he passed through for the collection of tare. He was a good man for the Republican party. Just such a man as finds therein a home and a chance to steal. He went to Florida, and was appointed carpet bag Governor of that State.
