The now federated republic of the
different provinces of the Empire of
Brazil, under the name of the United
States of Brazil, consideri?g the complete
transformation within a few
hnn ra ie tn hf? am finer tli<? most
marvelous events of the world'* histgrv.
Dom Pedro, who das ruled so
y long and has made an excellent em
peror, has been dethroned. He has
accepted his fate without a word.
Liberal provision has been made for
the dethroned and exiled emperor,
reciviuij ?2,500,000 in cas.h and provisions
for the rest of his life by an
, annuity of $?50,000.
The metamorphosis has taken place
almost within the twinkling of an eve:
it all has been accomplished without
the loss of a single life; nut a sword
has been unsheathed to dethrone the
monarch or to reinstate him. Brazil |
ie to ho n? n-a llion?*)i
w e-evervthing
had been moved by ihe
machinery-graTrepublican government
pp """ "ali the time. At present they have a
provisional government until the various
departments can be fully organized.
The old imperial emblem with its
crown and coffee leaf 'low gives way
to the new flag of the United States of
Brazil, with its green and gold stripes,
with a blue field, on which are fixed
nineteen stars.
TU ? T.lntUtio
A groat many tf the newspaper?,
have been ridiculing the story of lintloss
cotton seed produced by Mr.
Ferguson, of Spartanburg. The
Greenville Xacs styles it one of the
"hoaxes of the season" worked on our
friend Cupr. E. P. Mclvissick by a
??? "guideless farmer."
x The following taken from the Cam
lout-Spartan will settle th? question:
Mr. Ferguson was in town Monday.
He says the following are the facts of
the case. 'Three or four vear6 ago, he
and Captain Bowden ordered three
packages of cotton seed at $150 a
pound. He notic d some stalks with
red bark and leaves and others with
white. The red produced seed without
lint. He gathered a few of these
and planted to themselves the next
year. They produced seed without
but. This rear he planted one-sixth
of an acre ou which he got a good stand
aud from that he has gathered two or
three bushels of seed weighing 50
pounds to the bushel. He believes the
. seed wiil produce the same thing every
rtime ana he says tnat it appears to him
that it is possible to raise 300 to 400
bushels of seed to the acre. This is
L just his opinion. The raising of lintr
less seed on a small scale is a fact and
refers to W. W. Simpson, II. J. I'ear^son,
Frank Pearson and George
^ Hanna, of Woodruff.
Exactly *rhit effect this new plant
will have upon the cottou seed traffic
can r.ot now be known. The seed is
k -
V
limi-ted at present, r.n ! i: will take
several years before the li it less seed
will be grown to any extent.
If Prohibition, Let it be ProhibitionOn
Monday, the 2nd day of Decern- j
ber, we are to have an election in j
Winnsboro to decide the question of
"license" or uno license" for the sale
of intoxicating drinks. The petitioners
for this election arc among our
very best citizens, asjgood as can be
found in any portion of the State.
The movement primarily originated in
the purity of woman's heart. That
they do conscientiously believe that
the financial and moral welfare of the
town will be on a higher plane and
the result will be accompanied with
the greatest happiness to i he greatest
number, is not ouv province now to
deny.
Their convictions are supported by
an enlightened and highly developed
conscience, and their light to entertain
such opinions are too sacred to oe
trammeled. Let every man who be- j
lieves in prohibition have the courage j
and manhood to cast hi* vote for ir.
On the other hand will be found
th??e with contrary convictions equally
? ? * * ( * I I n A > A
as unit in utui ui likciisc, wunv
tions to their minds grounded upon a
bam of solid, compact rock; to their
minds experience has taught the inexpediency
of prohibition. They will
ca>t their vote without a grain of com-!
pnnction. They believe, and just as
honest in it as prohibitionist?, they arc
subserving the best interests of their
fellow-man and of their country, in
view of the circumstances usuahy,.
attendant upon true. a^jHTioTT^of the
law granting licenses.
We find differences of opinion in the
very family circle on this subject.
Honest about their views they are too.
No man has the right lo abuse one for
voting for license. It's a qnestiou he
has ihe right to decide. lie, however,
ought to be open to argument and
honestly weigh the jtros and cons; and,
after {he natural wavering and vacillating
of the human mind, the mind
com?s u? a halt on a fixed and settled
judgment, let no man dare lash him
with villainous reproach. If he favors
x lici-Dfrc let him go like a man and
cast his badot for it. He is then doing
nothing more than conforming to his
i - "
sense of <iu'y and exercising his rights
! and functions of citizcn->hip.
The books of registration will be
open, r:mI all, entitled to do so, should
register and ca^t their vote either the
ont* tray or the otln r. L*t it bf. a fair
and squnre is?ne and determined and
ii'itled bv the fall voting cAferty of
the 'own.
JSuu; ther? i? one tiling in which all
volfi.% be ihey "license' or "no
license" men, should join hands, and
that i?, frbonld prohibition be the
result, let it be most rigidly and strictly
cxcentcd to the very letter. Good
citizens have not good reasons for differing
in this8. They must respect the
dignity of the law. For God's sake
don't have the farce of profit bit ion we
had at one time in Winnsboro! Have
no bar-room under the itom <lcjtlmnt of
a candy shop. If it is to be so, let it
be nomeu ri omen. Far better to have
open bar-rooms every twenty feet
along main street. If we are to have
prohibition, give it to us in fact, and
uot merely iu name. It weakens con
| fideuce in and respect for the laws of
! the State, if they arc not enforced.
For one particular law to be broken
with impunity and with the silent
censent of the people, whose duty 'tis
to cuforce it, lends to give encouragement
lor the infringement of all laws.
| Sound Advice.
' In another column will be found a
communication from J. C. Jackson,
President of the Colored Farmers'
Alliance 111 this County. The letter
contains bits of wisdom and good
sound advice, and deserves something
more thai: a mere casual perusal.
There are things about- it of peculiar
interest which render it worthy of
spccial mention.
It seems that one Parks, of Newberry,
is endeavoring "to sow .seeds of
discord"' among the colored Alliances.
He claims that the Alliance as now
organized is under "the wrong head"
and is controlled by the white people,
hence the Colored Alliance will be led
by the nose by the white people.
Jackson, the author ot the communication
referred to, is a colored man,
and one of the most influential in the
County; he is a Ilepublicau, is now
and always lias been; he is a Republican
of high enongti repute to ha?e
been appointed by the Federal Government
supervisor ot election for
the year ISSi He evidently thiuks
that Parks wants to inject into
hi? organization n nolitieal tinsre: he
~ C7 l ? /
evidently suspects, and no doubt he is
correct, that Parks' desire is to arouse
the race prejudice and discontent
among the colored people, and strenuously
work for a return of Radical
days.
We believe that Jackson speaks the
sentiments of the colored people.
"What we want in Fairffekl is harmony
and peace between the colored
and white people." "Cad crops is
enough without race troubles being
brought in." "Ami let us knock the
j edge of any tuau's axe who would
[attempt to renew.bygone days by
bringing it info our Alliance work."
I These words are wise and conservative,
and show* plainly and conclunut.
of tho. month of one of
their own color, that there is no grievance
in Fairfield County for .vhich the
"Nstionel Association of Colored Citizens"
can pray to Mr. Harrison for
redress. They know and acknowledge
that they are living under an honest
State Government; that all their rights
as citizens are accorded them. They
are at peace with their white citizens
and ask not for a return of "by-gone
days." They are contented with their
condition. When one of the leading
colored men, and a Republican at that.
prefers to have things politically as
they are, it is a matter of some significance.
It implies that the colored
people of Fairfield County are satisfied
with the Democratic adminstra*T".

them to condcmn all efforts to rekindle ;
the race animosities and to be made

A LETTER FROM ARKANSAS.
Fordyce Ark. November 12.? j
Your kind request affords me an !
opportunity to fulfill a promise I made '
quite a number of my friends before j
J- : T>,. ?1 lirciiit/'li !
u. i i?ti? jl yj ? v/
the columns ot Tiik Herald a pen j
picture of tl;is country as I see it. I j
have now been here nearly eleven !
j
months. Have made one crop, have
not finished gathering yet, nor will I
before Christinas. My crop is the
ray best I ever made in my life.
Though it has been damaged some, by
caterpillars eating the leaves of sia'ks j
and jouug bolls.
This scction of Arkansas is about I
the fame latitude of Columbia S. C.
The conntry is not near so hilly, and
broken as that of Fairfield though
broken enough to make the drainage j
sufficient to ensure good health. The^
water is very good indeed, js.Uile-ir'Ts j
not as clcjjx~im^~^ure apparently, as
tife^water in the favored sections of
your county. It is much better than
many portions. It is obtained by digging
from 25 to GO feet, while it is
mostly freestone. Some wells arc
highly impregnated with minerals of
different kinds?sulphur being the
mcst common. On the place where I;
am living, there is two wells, one of j
them freestone, about 30 or 35 feet i
deep. This well dries up in August.
The other is a mineral, of some kind,
is 52 feet deep, and the s.;ppiv is inexhaustable.
To the mineral in this, I i
attribute the extraordinary 1-ealthfulucaS
of this pl-ice. We have not had a
doctor in the family since we have
been here. In iny old home I was
troubled with indigestion, sick headache
etc, here 1 have nothing ot the
kind and am just as hearty as I can be.
1 mention these, not as items of inter- j
est. but as facts, oroviiur that this is as :
healthy if nut more than Fairfield.
I mentioned that water was to be
had by digging- wells; do not understand
ine, that ih.-re utv no springs
here, f?r there are plenty of clear mailing
springs as is seen in many protions.ofS.
C.; in fact many more than
is seen in the ivdetn section of Fairfield,
and tiie Ualseliville section of
Che>ter. J he lands here, whili nol
originally as good as the Beaver Creek j
or Little River >ectiotis, of Fairfield,
are very much better than any other
portion that I am acquainted with.
There is only about. 2b per cent
cleared. This is cultivated in a very
haphazard way. The land is terraced
in March with an Avcrv one-horse
plow; then planted and then most of
the cultivation is done with the same
plow, were the proper methods u?cd
here in cultivating, the yield would be
increased at least one-third. Such
glorious ibrests of pine mingled with
all the varieties of oaks, gums, elms,
and the others common in Fairfield,
with the addition of iron wood and
the buckeye. The latter grows here
to be quite a sappling. 1 have seen
them fifteen feet high and as big as a
small man's leg. Fanning here is the
chief pursuit of the inhabitants. On
the St. Louis, Arkansas & Texas
Railroad which runs through the
South Eastern portion of the county,
there is now in operation, nearly
every four miles, large milling interests,
each of which cut from twenty
to forty thousand feet cf lumber per
day of 24 hours. They run day and
night. These mills arc the cause of
the independence of the average small
farmer about his crop. He will work
at the mill all winter until March, and
then go to cutting his logs, and together
with fifteen or twenty of his
neighbors will roll and burn them; of
course he has to reciprocate. This
takes up all the month of March.
The plowing i? then begun, and the
planting if the weather is favoroble,
is finished by the last of may. They
then "lay by" by the first or second
week in July. Then of! to the mills
agaiu. The wages at the mills for
AAmmAn IoKavovc $1 9n r\ni* /Inr nn
W11IUJU1I muu.vioio-n^v pw " t'
to $4 and So for expert saw filers. It
is very difficult to retain or even get
month or day labor for that very reason.
No farmer can afford to pay any
such wages. Of coursc this applies
only to the sections that are near these
mills. Though the prices paid here
for farm labor is nearly twice as much
as is paid in S. C., rates per month
from $12 to $15 per month, late per
day from 50 to 75 cents with board in
each cise and is paid at the. end of
each month if desired. Everything
that grows in the South grows well
here. Though flour is so cheap that
there is no wheat grown in this section
of Arkansas. While just across the
in 'lie red lands of Cleveland
County, only 15 miles off", it is or can
be grown to perfection. The soil
here is much like it is at my old home i
in Fairfield?light jrrey soil-though |
it is fine and after a rain is kinder;
sticky, while it is not classed among
the rich lands of the State. It is easilyworked
ana is very productive indeed.
This country offers more varied, and
better advantages to those seeking
homes than any place I have evert
seen or known. Here, there is plenty I
of wood, s:nd good water, and an in- \
exhaustablo supply of timber for fenc-'
ing, building eic. At those mills I
mentioned, can be obtained just as!
much lumber ready dressed, ton^ued
groved as is wanted at from 33? to
r\r i i i i m. ? _ r _ !
o\j ana &j cci is p^r uunurcu. xms is;
the advantage over Texas and the!
prarie lands of the South West. The i
advantage over the older Stales, is,!
the cheap lands, that can be bought!
here either for cash oi* on any time,!
that the purrh-wr may ask, <>r want, j
Then there aiv !:?on*aiuis of acres of

split and put on the fence at the rate
of$l per hundred. Should the i enter
wish to clear up any new land he will
be paid $10 per acre for clearing and
fencing or $8 where it is already
fenced. The rule here for crop hands i
is one-half of all crops cultivated; and |

the whites; with this difference, the
whites will be <diven choice of baying

will be i(quired to rent from, or work
for the man w.ho furnishes him the
money to come on, or with some
neighbor whom thev may agree upon.
Y >n can tell a Cuolna. darkey here
whenever yon meet lura. I mean
those who work here like they did \
there. Some of those who came from
Fairfield are looked upon as ihe very
best citizens of Cleveland, Drew, Lincoln,
and Dallas Counties, of course
a worthless, shiftless man, whisc^ftr..
black, need not comeJimi-TrncT^expcct
to be sup?0?VertY-tfr~:ive by his wits or
-scheming, for he will be disappointed,
and will certainly be detected and
dropped. If he is shiftless, he will
surely be punished, should his
scheming be a violation of law. I
have no axe to grind, nor have I personal
interest, more than I want those
of my old friends who are not doing
well there to come here, where they
will gladly be given chances to obtain
houses for their wife and little ones.
Any one wishing further information,
or desiring aid to enable them
to come will address me at Ford^ce
Dallas County, enclosing stamps for

and answer any questions that may
natuivlly present themselves to enquiring

To each of my old friends I send
