A correct estimate of the results of
larin .labor'cannot be made without,
reliable statistic^"tipbn "which to b:iao
l lit; calculation ; in the absence of
these, therefore, we are only able to
give an approximation, sutlicicnlly
near the true ligurcs, to warrant the
conclusion arrived at. The farmers
.of oilr county have depended mainly
lipon cotton as the money crop., and
whatever prosperity has been attained
?was in proportion to tire amount of
that staple produced over'and above
expenses... A* ltiw, more 'progressive
ihan others^have varied'their crops
Rufilcicntly to supply their home tlev
inands for provisions, and arc to-day
more prosperous than their neighbors
who have relied solely on cotton.
Tho entire production of cotton for
tjue eopnty may bo safely put down
ni tbirty-Iive thousand- babs, one
half of. whnch is sold in the county
and tbe (jtheKhalf shipped to Charles
Ion or elsewhere*. At 6 1-2 cents per
pound, tho average price of the last
season, that-.'portion of the cotton
erop sold in the cdanity yielded 'the
the sum of $700,00(9. From other
farm sources, lumber, uuechanical la
bor, etc., money values may have
been created to tho amount of S100,
000, making a total of $8*10,000 made
and Bold in the county anq constitutes
the basis,of trade bctwccui our c'.ti
t.
sens, j
The cotton, one-half, sola at points
without the county, yielded) at least
i\n additional aum of 8.700,00p., while
ihe lumber trade of Beaufort and
Charleston .and other sources, .return
ed at least 8200,000 more, making a
grand total;of money values created
in Orangeburg County of ?1,700,000.
The amount of ,trade-dono in the
town . of Orangeburg . will approach
2800,000,1 that of other poiijt?? will
foot up au aggregate of 8:lU0,000
more, making a total of 81,200,000
xvoith of trade done by the merchants,
and leaving 8500,000 expended out
feAde.the county. It will be seen that
these estimates are low and within
the actual limits of the trade done,
nor do they represent the full capaci
ty of tho county, yet an increase, can
And ought to be made equal to tile
amount of monoy spent beyond the
limits of tho coun y. If the entire
option crop should be sold in, the
pouilty, very nearly a million and a
half of dollars would be put in circu
lation, and to that extent the trade
of the towns of the county would be
increased. The full value of the en
tfircip^oj.uction of our citizens would
be kept-at .hump for the use of the
county and to promQto the prosperity
of her cilizops. Every dollar spent
from home diminishes the circulation
And .that far hinders the prosperity of
home cntprprisGa, . . .
' It scorns to us therefore, to be the
duty of every farmer to supply, his
wants as fur ns possible from home
sources, and what surplus he may have
spare to spcn?t among his neigh
bors , and county merchants and thus
aid in building up a general prosperi
ty among our citizens. It-is-equally
the duty.of" tho merchant to sell his
Waros1' ht such prices as will induce
the farmer to do his trading at home.
High prices will drive (rade from a
tpwn hcoauso men will go where they
qop.buy cheapest; and the reverie.is
equally, truo that low prices will
increase trade and the general pros
purity of d people. In a densely pop
ulated country there is no good rea
son for a poor market or. lor the peo
ple to go beyond their county limits
to sejll their produce. The oncisecina
to necessitate 'ho other- unless mer
chants are loo blind to see their own
interest. In- the North wbero tho
country is thickly peopled tho re arc
towns ami > cities every five or ten
uiiles. all doing a good, business and
. general prosperity abends tho .work.
I of the citizens!. Merchants, in order
to increase their trade, offer pvery
inducon'opt and find ' that' a large
trade,' induced by low prices/, gives
more satisfaction than t\ ?miall trade
and high prices. Indeed, tho same
policy is beginning to he adopted by
ilic' merchants of Orangeburg', and
they recognize the necessity c/f hold
ing the trade . already acquired find
of increasing it by superior induce
mcuts. "We were loht only ft few
days since by one of the leading mer
chants of our town that lie would du
plicate at his store Charleston prices
and give a better article. Let our citi
zens know this, that it is in good faith
and we guarantee the ep?re trade of
the county will center in the towns
of the county. It is an easy matter
to test the' sincerity of this assertion
?a knowledge'of Charleston prices
is all that one needs. Cotton is
bought here at as close figures as in
any town in the Slate, and we believe,
for cash, 'goods can be purchased
here r,s low as elsewhere. More car
est efforts are being put foilh in the
shape of special, cheap stores than
ever known before, and the success
of one such enterprise will be but
opening Ihe way to a cheap market
and a flourishing town, for our coun
ty is sufllcicntly dense in poplation,
our lands arc fertile, climate salubri
ous ami;'fixed, citizens intelligent and
law abiding and our government
Democratic, therefore honest. Cheap
markets, at which the entire trade of
our citizens may center, are only
needed to introduce a new and more
prosperous period for our co.unty.
We trust tho tune is not far distant
when all the resources of the our fa
vored county will be developed and
utilized, and our people shall realize
Lite fact that diversified industry is a
nation's prosperity.
District Conference.
The Orangeburg District Confer
ence of the M. E. Church, South, con
vened at WiR'&op in Barnwcll Coun
ty, Thursday morning,- May Jo.
Kev. Q. A.'Darby preached the open
ing sermon on Wednesday night.
Kev. M. Brown j Presiding Eider of
the District, in the absence qf the
Bishop, called the Conference to or
der, and Messrs.' J. N. Hook and L.
T. Jzlar were elected secretaries.
The reports of the different eire'uita j
and stations embraced in llic District
were called for and the preachers in
charge gave an encouraging account
of their respective fields of labor.
These reports, touching upon all the
varied interests of the church, con
sumed the first three sessions of the
Conference and were listened to with
the deepest interest by the members.
Friday the following gentlemen were
elected delegates to the next annual
Conference:' Dr. W. W. Smith, of
Williston ; Dr. R. W. Rates, of Prov
idence ; Mr. James Stokes, of Orange
and Mr. J. K. Ilooi;, of Lewisville.
The following were elected alter
nates: Dr. J. 1). Odom, Geo. W.
Barton, Dr. J. W. Summers and Mr.
J. C. Pike. .
Bishop Wightman, who arrived on
Thursday evening, flavored the con
ference with several instructive talks
upon the various topics affecting the
interest of the Church in this portion
of the State. His remarks upon iaro
ily prayer were particularly "interest
ing,, anil, doubtless, - wi'il spnd an in
fincnee out that will'work for the ad
vancement of the Church and the glo
ry of Chr'st's Kingdom in our midst.
The Sunday School work was not
neglected by the good Bishop, but
was made the subject of one of his
talks. Those who listened to his
stirring appeals in behalf of the little
ones, and to his earnest instructions
as to the conduct of our schools, will
certainly return more deeply infused
with the spirit of the Master and de
termined to labor more zealously in
a field where no much may be done
for the good of their Church.
. Tho work o( the "tYoman's Mission
ary Society was cordially commended
to the Church as an auxiliary, under
the providence of God, destined to
accomplish a great work in behalf of
the spread of tho gospel among the
heathens of tho earth.
The interest which tho Church has
in the success of Wofford College
was forcibly presented by tho Bishop
and that institution commended to
the patronage of Methodist people
throughout the District. Lewisville,
in Orangeburg County, was selected
as tho place of meeting of the next
District Conference.>
Tho Monument. 1
On the 13lh instant we witnessed |
the ceremonies attending tho unveil
ing of tho monument, ereetetl by tho
ehiifitahlo efforts of tho Indies of our
State, to perpetuate I ho memory ol
our hcrocs'v/ho gave their lives in de
fence of the principles and the honor
of South Carolina; 'Tho eauso for
which they sacrificed.I jicir ]iws is in
deed lost, but the memory bf their
deeds shall live so l?ug us tips mon
ument stands and thernoblp efforts of
the ladies, who planned and complet
ed the work, shall be honored by the
citizens of our Stale. The vast mul
titude (more than ten thousand souls)
Ihul attended on lluvt occasion and
the order which prevailed, 't?test
how deep the current of love Hows in
tho- heart of fhejr countrymen. It
was - to u3 u noycl spectacle that a
subjugated people would dare erect a
monument in honor of their dead,'and
thus by that net'intake thenl heroes
in the oy.cu. of the world. No other
subjugated people ever did as much.
Ireland embalmed Ihe*memory of her
patriot, Knimet, in the heart of her
citizens, but never dared to eicct a
monument to perpetuate it. Poland
transmits by tradition through her
elders the secret record, of the lives of
her heroes, hut builds no monument
to tell posterity of their fame. The
South, subjugated, impoverished by
tho burning of the homes of her citi
zens and tho confiscation of millions
of their property, stands alone in his
tory, possessed of an independence
peculiar to the Democratic institu
tions of America, which dares, in the
presence of her conquerors and before
the eyes of the world, to honor her
dead by erecting a monument sacred
to the memory of their lives and their
deeds. There arc but few things left
of tho old Republic to commend our
citizens to that form of government,
but this alone is sufficient to make us
love it more than man could possibly
love the depotism that subjugated
Poland, or the monarchy that subju
gated Ireland,.
The Republican Nomination.
The frichds of Secretary Sherman,
preparatory to his nomination for the
Presidency, arc feeling their way cau
tiously but earnestly. An elfort; was
made some time ago to enlist Mr.
Hayes in behalf of the Secretary, but
in the light of recent' events that
fraudulent olllcial sees a faint hopo of
a second term and is o.low to commit
himself before more light is thrown
upon the hope of his young ambition.
Whilst these moves arc being made
upon the political chess board, the
friends of General Grant, no longer
assured of a prompt, not to say unnn
imous, nomination, arc more than
anxious for n movement to be inau
gurated which will divide distinctly
the influence of llaycs and Sherman.
Their management is characterized
liy all the adroitness of skilled politi
cians' and all the daring of those who
once tasted the good thing of Presi
dential patronage ; and the country
need not be suprised, when the Re
publican Convention meets to see
Gen. Grant thrust in between Sher
man and Hayes and come out the
nominee of his party. If, however,
cither Hayes or Sherman withdraws
from the contest, the influence of the
one ma}' be readily utilized in favor
of the other, and Grant vyith his fami
ily relations must of necessity pull
wires harder than ever before to se
cure the desired nomination. So un
settled is politics at the present time
and so fickle arc the minds of her vo
taries that a day may develop and
bring forth a wonderful change. The
unpopularity of Mr Hayes but a few
months ago and his present power in
the Republican party, ia a ease in
point.'- ?,' 1'
School Convention.
It will bo seen by the communica
tion of Mr. Holloway in another col
umn thnt the 7th of June is suggested
n,s tho time for the meeting of the
School Convention. Though earlier
than was expected wc would urge the
teachers to-meet promptly. Arrange
ments will be made for a placo of
meeting and for other matters neces
sary to the success of the Convention.
Major Thompson, our State Superin
tendent, will be witli us to aid, by his
counsel and influence in the organiza
tion and working of the Convention.
Wc would suggest that a meeting of
the Committee be had on next Mon
day afternoon at three o'clock at the
oillce of the Democrat to take all the
matters into consideration pertaining
to the business of tho Convention.
The members of the committee, in
cluding those just appointed by Com
missioner Connor, will please make
an elfort to bo present at this meet
ing,, as much will depend upon the
wisdom of the plans adopted on that
occasion. ?
