.; <eral cliice like that held.by Poslnms
'tei'Gcneral Key, who was a' Coil fed

?elected, may be President of the'Uni
ted Stales, or a member ol Congress,
. .or a judge even of the Supreme Court,
$et cannot be ii'juror because bo,darc

sistent, it appears to us, such enact
flnents, which brought forth the test
,o:dh into existence, ought to be based
upon principle, applicable . to every
<dllee and excluding from every right
or none. If it be an anomaly and
not intended as a principle,.tliun it is
a disgrace to the nation and an insult
to her citizens. Such an irregular
.act can neither protect a single right
?of n citizen nor prohibit a wrong, and
ought to be taken from the statute
?books; because the only purpose it
?an serve is to keep in memory
the wrongs that one section suffers at
the hands of another, and thus post
pone, indefinitely} that return to order
and peace which the country so much
needs.
Indeed there can be no permanent
reconciliation so long asthcie is a
single law which shuts out one part
of our citizens from a right that an
other portion enjoys. The people of
the North and West are slow in
learning that whilst the people of the
South arc disposed to be loyal to the
government of the United Slates and
will make every effort to defend her
honor and to advance her interest;
yet the memories of the past are as
fresh and dear to her citizens now,
rs in the days when they were actu
ally erignged in defending their con
stitutional rights against the aggres
sions of the North. No enactment,
however exclusive in its application,
' can ever make them repent of the no
ble part they played in the defense of
?it"1 cause they believed to not only
right but eminently just.
The Veto.
The Chinese bill, which was intro
duced by California and rushed
through Congress restricting the im
portation of Chinamen to fifteen by
any vessel, has been vetoed by Piesi
dent Hayes on the ground that it,
was a violation of a treaty made with
China. This whole matter has the
appearance of political trickery, got
ten up to subserve electioneering pur
poses. Whether this eastern element
brings to bear an evil influence on
society or whether it is an incubus
upon the labor system of our Western
country, are questions which might
.very well be contrasted with the
effects upon society and the labor
system of tbo South of our negro e|c
mer.t.., Civilization here was certain
ly endangered by giving to four mill
Ipns of ignorant ncgros all the privi
leges; of the government, and the dan
ger qannot, bo more threatening to
the West from the l;>0,00? Chinamen,
who belong to a. higher ijpc than the
African. If absolute citizenship, was
necessary for the elevation of the ne
gro, it cannot be less tor the China
man. If thq presence, at the South
of so many free ncgroft was required
to make labor houprablcv progressive
and productive, the presence of an
...
equal number of' Cliineso at Iho West)
cannot bo less required. Indeed this j
summary way of disposing of tho
Chinanteh by bill Is but opening the
door for a similar disposition of the
negro, should he become a democratic
element of power. Tho recent arti
cle of Mr. Blnine in thc North Amer
ican Review has a meaning.

D. T. Corbin, Again. 1
This Radical carpet-bagger, who
claimed to have been elected Senator
t.o represent the Stale of South Carrt
lina in the United States Congress
and who has been hanging around
tho Senate chamber for the hist two1
years as a contestant for a scat which
C,?n. M. C. Butler lias occupied since
November 187?, co.ncs up before the'
public, we hope, for thc last lime.
Corbin dees not prescht himself in
the usual character of a Radical, or
of a United ?States Senator, but as a
kind ot semi-beggar at the door of the
Senate. ' He is not exorbitant in his
demands, but like the modern beggar
he is persistent; and he is not unrea
sonable in his memorial, but after
the fashion of the old Slate House
petitioners, he wants only his actual
expenses paid. Corbin says these
amount to. somewhere between $11,
000 and 612,000, but considering the
hard times, he would only ask to be
paid the very reasonable, sum of ?10,
000 for little less than Iwq years' per
sonal expenses. Some of the Sena
tors could not sec it in this light, but
thc humane Republicans; . did ; and
after two ill-timed , efforts to reduce
thc amount were made and failed,'
the Senate voted to donate D. T. Cor
bin the moderatet sum of $10,000.
Well, its a , happy riddance even at
that price.
H?rt. Jefferson Davis.'
The United Stales Senate has been
guilty of another ojf its little acts in
attempting to degrade the President
of thc late Confederacy by excluding
him from the pension' list of the
Mexican veterans. Not si soldier of
that war perpaps did friere fo,r its
success and ultimate results than
Mr. Davis. Yet occupying the posi
tion he does as the representative
man of the late Confederacy, he
would not have received a pension if
voted to him, and the Senate knew
this. As an act of spite this vote has
no parallel, but as an net with a
double meaning it is simply contemp
tible ; one to degrade Mr. Davis and
the other to Insult the South. Mri
Davis' career is already a part of the
history of this country, but as great
as his fame may be, such acts to
make him a martyr, will but increase
i; and the love his people bear him.
Death of Rev. Lucius Bellinger.
"This veteran of the Cross preach

Church in Bamberg last Sunday week.
Soon after service hi was taken sick
and died at Gen. Bambcrg's Thurs

pudiate and Ispil't upon the conquest
of that country, ns it is well known
that the South furnished with its
scanty population three to one of the
lighters." General Shields hailed the
Palmetto:flag as the first ensign that
waved on the. walls of Mexico.
Scott, Taylor,'Lee, Beanregard and
Johnston all fought to be kicked by
Hoar and Chandler. Mr. Davis has
asked no favors of - these blatant
demagogues. 1 Ho would consider ii.
a libel on' his record to be peered
with these harlequins. He claims
no ntlinity with their principles, and
would /be as distinctly ?separate from
them as n -'Theirs from a Marat.
What-Mr. Davis did was for the best,
and to his best. He- came forward
at the call of his people, their chosen
leaders, with their full sympathy, for
weal or woe. To question his mo
lives, is to ridicule the foresight of
the South in choosing him as presi
dent. To impugn his actions is to
be base and ingrate. Mr. Dav'13 is
to-day the landmark of the princi
ples thnl w.cro engulfed in 18G5. He
is tbe-snrvLvdr of what Leu and Jack
son died for, and had he been called
to the sword, rather than , the chair,
his grave would have been laurelled
asitlieirs with a sokliei's fame. He
belongs-not to-the day Of Chandler
and Hoar. Yet, unlike Marius, he
does not ait moodily amid the ruins,
hut by every gracious word urges his
people to be loyal to tho powers that
be.; Had Mr.! Davis: with truckling
knee cringed as a few did, and kissed
the hand that struck down his coun
try, ho might have had a foreign mis
sion as a sop of favor. Bu*. he was
true. True lo the principles which
Milton, quoted of the immortal par.lh -
meat, when he said '* Resistance to

he dared to do the right, a right
which their Supreme Court shrunk

their for-tieason, and twice, they dis
posed of the travesty by feigned mug
naiiiinity. Let Messrs. Hoar and
Chandler read Irving's Washington,
and write him down a rebel. Jeff.
Davis was just such an one. *
It is said that between two and
three hundred men and women of St.

pint of blood, piping hot from the
veins of slaughtered cattle. More

ture in.our county, ami that you arc
always ready to aid with your valua
ble paper every object that is calcula
ted to add to its material prosperity,
I hand you ? the enclosed letter for
. publication if you think proper. The
letter speaks for. itself. Much has
been suid by our farmers about the
I low pr'ieo of cotton. The question
Co?ti?lially arises, can we make colt
i"oh at 8 cents per pound? What
can wo plant that will pay us better?
These are important questions to be
answered and each farmer will an
swer them according to his own indi
vidual stand point. 1* hold that we
can make cotton at 8 cents per pound
provided we do not make it 'tjju ex
clusive crop. Mr. Leg'are as he Writes
thinks,!Jutc will pay better than cot
ton. "With our climate, soil and sea
sons wo can produce nearly every
thing we ne'-'d. for home consumption
and the farmer, if lie is prudent and
economical and not in debt, can live1
with biit littjV cash'outlay (hiring the
year. Then let us diversify our crops,
make everything we can toy' home
consumption, let its use economy,
never buy on credit if we can avoid
it. Credit means paying from 20 to
00 percent above cash prices; it
makes the farmer a slave t? his cred
tor; it binds him hand and foot, and
Wi 11^ if he continues it, eventually end
in'his ruin. Pay as you go, should
be the motto of every farmer. Let
them carry it out fully, and with' fru

Fokwl Motte; Feb. 22nd, 1870.
Dr. W. F. Barton:
Dear Sir:?I" see, in your last
meeting of the Agricultural Society,
a discussion in regard to planting
Jute, ami as 1 tried it last year, will
give you my experience with it, if it is
of any uso to any of my fanner
friends. I planted when putting in
cotton from 10th of April to 1st of
May, on ordinary cotton land. Thc
seed seem to be very delicate, and 1
found it hard to get a stand?should
be planted while thc land is damp,
and covered lightly. At first the
the plant* grow very slowly, not as
fast ns the'cotton by it, and I do not
think wc can plant broadcast on our'
lands. Thc grass would destroy the
young plants. I had to hoe and
plough mine like thc cotton at first,
but one or two ploughing^ ;and one
hoeing would probably do. The
plants by thc miditlc of September,
grew 5 or G fect high and from 3-1 to
1 inch thick, (thc proper ?ize for
fibre) and should then be cut while
in bloom. Tho frost caught thorn be
fore maturing the seed well,however,
so I did not save any seed,, nor
did I keep any of them as I left all
I hail to, go to seed.
llowever^if we would devote half
the attention we do to cotton to an
acre of Jute I am {satisfied it would
pay twice, as much with less works
for cotton at ? cents will not pay. its
expunses on*.Ordinary land.
I see it stated that you will have
some seed to dispose of, if so I would
like to get 1 or 2 pounds to plant
again this spring more carefully.
Yours very truly,
Tuos. K. Lkuake.
Floral Fair. ??
Editors Orangeburg Democrat:
"Breathes there a nian whose soul
Is so dead that never to himself has
said," 1 am an admirer of flowers.
If there be such a one and he a bach
Ib.r, young or old, unmarried, then
would I advise all ladies to avoid
him. I see by the action of the Di
rectors of the Agricultural and Me
chanical Association that they are all
lovers of flowers, and conserpie-'ntly
they have decided to hold a Floral
Fair some time in May next. 1
know also that our ladies of Ornngc
burg county arc ladies of taste, and
arc admirers of flowers, taking delight
in their cultivation. 1 believe there
Is nothing so elevating and refining
to the mind as their culture. I have
had the pleasure of attending two
floral exhibitions held by the Orange
burg Agricultural and Mechanical
Association, at each of which I was
really delighted'. These exhibitions
excelled my most sanguine expecta
tions. I have seen more and greater
varieties, in large cities, but I never
have seen liner or more beautiful flow
ers than were exhibited in Oraiigc
burg?. I think 1 can speak for our
ladies in saying that they will res
pond to- the action of the'gentlemen
Directors, and will by their taste and
etil lure excel in variety and beauty
all former exhibitions.
