THE :FAIRFIED HERALD WINNSBORQ, S. C. t Wednesday Morning, Aug. 11, 1869. 'a D)msportos, Williams & Co., Props J .Oalous-Ridden. ti The' United States has been caucus- 0 C :iddon to such an extent sine the war, a ha'm 14 is a great relief to everybody n that Ciigress is not in session, unsoru- I pilhus p irty leaders, who dolight in a hLri fe, would before now have "set fire to the Northern heart" over the con. servative victory in Virginia, and 0 postponed still longer the day of peacO b that now promises to dawn upon the South. In this long Congressional re- -r oess, however, publio opinion has had o a fair opportunity to form itself calm ly ; evo the partisan press, having lost the Congressional caucus cue, has Ox pressed indepenslent opinions, and con- u servative influences will have gathered o each head by Decembor, that radical caucuses will astsemble to hatch hatred, 9 for, onoe, in vain. Our Government 1 will have been restored upon "the I will of the majority should be the law of the land" prinoplo, and our coud. try will run a career of material devel opment, grandour and glory, hitherto e unequalled. 0 We somatime ago wrote, that we d had no faith in this new democratic I principle of the wisdom of the majori ty, and no hope of the future based I upon it. We now wish to modify that 1 opinion: we have hope, in the spread q of intelligence, in a free press, and in the magnitude and extent of the na tion. The danger is in being eaucut ridden and over-governed. But see- d Ing that the nation has evidently shak en off the caucus incubus during the last three months, so that Congress will bold its caucuses on reoonstruo tion, next winter, in vain, why may a not the same thing recur ? The coun- d try is largo, the press is free, and t publio opinion has unusual facilitiest for making itself known and respected. a In a free press there is still a great deal to build faith and hopo upon. Lot the dead past., then, bury its dead, and lot every true lover of his country n address himself to the task of break- c ing up cliques and oaucusos, and giving the simple majority govern monts, both State and Federal, that the war han loft us, the direotion of I Intelligence and virtuo. f A Most Excellent Law. T~hre has boon in operation in In- 1 diana, for fifteen years, a law exertpt. ing every man from taxation upon fifty or a hundred dollars worth of I property, for five years, for every t ;iorp plauted out in fruit trees. We 1 call tie attention of the .-P o-- rabl Geo rge WaV~shington Barber, and of our other distinguished rppresenta tired to this most oxeellont law. In a our Stato, the' cultivation of grape vinet,, ramie, red clover, the pOppy, the persimnmon (nowso little valued as tobe grossly noglootcd) and of other friitroes, culd be greatly stimula- . to4 atecouiraged by sonmc suoh lib. 1 era! exeruptain from taxation, as has prbod so! effiient in inidiana.

SAiE OF A LAnGI. PLANTING INTER EsT IN SUMTEit DIST iF.--The Sumter News, says: We' are-informed that two English gentlemen, Messrs. John B. Rogers and Juhn Owens, have purchased from Mr. T. C. Richardson the Bloomhill planta tion, about 4,000 acres. Bloonhill is a' few miles from Manchester, on the Wa teree River. It is a place of considera. ble historical interest. During the revo tion it was owned by Gon.. Wm. Rich ardson, .. nd was the headquarters of Gen. Greene, also, at diferent periods, of Gens. Cornwallis and Rawdon. A body of tories was attacked by patriots at Shank's Greek, in the neighborhood. During the recent war it was at this place that the flag of truce reached Gen. Potter, and terminated hiostilities, just in time to save another useless battle. We regret to sea these fine posses sions passing ouit of the hands of our own people. But when they must go we are pleased to know that they are pu,-chased by substantial men, who will probably haye thie will and energy to turn them to good account. RKato MFronRTIR TunsiP FiY-S.

FinE OF FAnss.--The conclusion to iwhieh our observation on this sub. eoct has ld us, may be thus stated : 1. In grain growing the farm 1, lhould be of a size to justify the pur- a ishase of all the best implements : 100 A cres is not enough for this. The nost profitnble farms are several hun. b lIred acres in area. a 2. Grass farms of fi om 100 to 200 I teres are profitable, but there are not he same reasons for a large area in rrazing farms as in grain growing. 3. In small fruit culture and in ruokiug the doctrine "ton aores mnough" is not a fallacy. 4. No man has any reason to plume n inself on a wide stretch of exhaust- & id soil. The only true pride of acres I s fe't by him who leaves his patrimo ly, whether ten acres or a thousand, leeper in soil, freer of wends and P itonos, better supplied with the food 0 if all the important plants, stocked e vith more animals and better blood ' han he found it. - -" 0- -.v A Youwo LADY BUtNRN To DEATIE. n k young married lady named Bella 'rawford, residing in Chicago, on Wednesday inorning, while pouring 0 oil from a hkerosene can, was burned g o badly by the explosion of the can s4 hat she expired on the evening fol- n owing from the effects of the injuries eceived.
