OTONNOK. Our renders will be shocked by the! startling intelligence of the death of] this faithful public, servant, at his home in Charleston on Tuesday. The excitement of public life, and the harassing contests to which he was subjected during his Congress ional career was more than .Mr. Con-, nor could bear. Added to these corroding ouiv.s and excitements, his unswerviug attention to duty, and Iiis devotion to the interests of his con stituents, completely broke down his (health, and at last resulted in his death. The signs of disease were seen in him during his canvass of Orangeburg County in the last cam paign. He however met all his ap ?pointments, and after the election, took his place in Congress. But, finding his condition growing more critical, he, at length, came home to die. Mr. O'Connor was a conscien tious public man. In all his public acts he was guided by a sense of duty. Before the war he was several times sent to the State Legislature. lie was a brilliant (?rator, and, after the war, the graces of eloquence brought him out again into public life. His removal from the political arena will mark an epoch in the history of our State. Wo know hot how bettor to conclude this meagre notice of thi? good ma \ t an in the language ot .the iVcics and Courier: * 'Surely M. V. O'Connor had not an enemy, and the friends ho had he (Could depend on as they could rely on him. Always affectionate, gener ous, tender and considerate, with a bright, smile for every acquaintance, and a linn, strong grasp of the hand for every friend, his beaming #cyeami cheery face will long, long be missed in Charlest?n. Honored he was by this people; loved he was by those who know the sweet simplicity of hie gentle, affectionate nature; remem bered he will be as one whose whole . s&rcttr vr&s free from the stains of malice, euvy aud revenge, and who leaves to those whose hearts ache for Jiim to-day the precious memory of a life adorned by generosity and chari ty, and by a kindliness that never failed." In the United States Senate last week, Gem M. C. Butler of our State, happening in the course of his speech to refer to the bargain be tween the Republicans and (Jen. Mahono, Gen. Burhside leaped from his scat and in the most excited man ner characterized the statement, as false. It is reported that Burhside was drunk, and on this account Geh. Butler deelined to bandy words with him, but corily proceeded with hb speech at the conclusion of what he reiterated the statement of a bar gam. The next day Buruside, hav ing timefor meditntion, and appeal ing from Burnsido drunk to Burn Hide sober, made an ample apology in public session which was happily accepted by Geh. Butler in the spirit in which it was tendered. Ko one can question Gen. Butler's bravery, and he could well a fiord to exhibit the calmness for which he is noted. How much better, suys the Hewn and Cnmier. is this mode of settle ment than the schoolboy tactics ex pressed in "you're another!'' Major Cotirtenay, not satisfied with Rev. II. F. Creil/berg's ample and gentlemanly apology for his state jnent from the pulpit cf his Churcl which was the result of a miscon struction of a remark of Alderman Chisolrn, all of which was since satis factorily explained by Mr, Chisolrn, has now written another letter to number of gentlemen of tho Metho dist Church Unding fault with them because they have dun on to pas. resolutions approving of tho course of their pastor. These gentlenio have very properly treated the ruv i tigs' of t iiu Mayor with deserve silence. We don't think Mr, (.'our teiihy has gained any laurels by hi: course. Abrain Martin, n colored man, was hanged in Abbeville on Friday for killing his aged wife last duly. Mar tin had been living in adultery with another woman, anc-1 the evidence shows (hat he killed his wife in order that he might successfully continue his crimes. Aud yet he went through with the usual gallows talk of "peace with God" Ac. Thu common crime of adultery with this class of our population, and the general disre gard for t he sanctity of the marriage state calls for general reform on this head. Moral education is too much overlooked in the popular greed for mental improvement. The stars are going out, ono Ivy one, from our political horizr.n. LAHOR?IMMIGRATION, IKTC'. Editor Oringebury Times: It appears tlmt immigrants arc coming to South Carolina. I am fearful that we arc not prepared to treat them as comfortably as I hey should be, iu Qrangeburg at least, for we cultivate wotUiing compara tively speaking hu t cotton, and these people can't <*at cotton seed. No man should apply for Iheiu unless they are able, to furnisth good quar ters .arid wholesomefood. If we in duce them to come among us and neglect -to treat them as they should be they may leave, and the maliciousi and false rumors circulated at the North about us, will be believed. We must not expect too much of these people, remembering that they labor under many disadvantages. They have tw learn ?nur customs and man ner of work, which requires time. IIo?w to entice immigration into our country? We must oiler good work, wholesome food and good pay. This will soon overcrowd us with them. When cotton factories are establish ed all over our land, and our fanners learn to devote one half of their cot ton lands tobread-stuffsthen will we sue immigrants Hocking to on ?coun ty. We will be prepared to prove to the world that ours is a favored land. But reflect, Air. Editor, n minute. Suppose an immigrant should come to Orniitreburi' to ex amine our condition as farmers and find that most of our farmers are buy ing at this early date, North West ern hay, corn, and meat oil time, after having harvested 50 thousand bnlcs of cotton. What would they think? Sil pose Uicy should lind our1 barns full, smoke houses also, Ollr fields cultivated with grain crops, fat cattle Arc. What would they think? Mr. Editor. I venture, to give to the white fanners of our country advice cultivate small graui and such crops that require little manual labor; raise horses, mules, cattle, hogs and sheep. If factories arcestahiishctl in our land there will be a demand for all we can raise. Mr. Editor, many fanners think that Liiere is money iii no other crop, but cotton, therefore plant all their productive lands in cotton and there barren lands in grain, which is a great mistake. Ifthe capital of the country was applied to manufacture and half of the labor devoted from cotton to provision crops, in a few years our country would become prosperous, populous and wealthy. Ciimc. Con. Giiry was one of our publh men who blessed our State, but nev er received his reward. It. is thought that Gen. John S. Preston will hardly live a day or two longer. President Garlic Id and l.'.dy, it is said, will be present at tho Cowpen's Celebration at Spart aiibtirg on Ma\ LLih. The editors of the. State will start on their Florida trip next week. They will come back invigorated for their summer worlc. Geil. Joseph Cane, the Democratic candidate for Vice-President on tin ticket with Gen. John C.
