The Chinese Labor Question in Texus—Damage
l y the Flood—A Four Pound Irish Potato
Prozisions Abundant—Weather, &c.
UicmioxD, August 2d, 1P09
Kdilors Telegraph: The labor question, after
having kept the Southern mind in sore travail
for tho last four or five years, is, notwithstand
ing the painfully protracted suffering of tho pa
tient, nljout to find a* early solution in the com
pletion of the Pacific railway. 'Whether this so
lution is destined to be a happy and beneficial
one for the country, is another question, and
one Jhat may well engage tho serious thought of
every man, especially of planters.
John Chinaman is willing to corns and work
cheap. A voyage half round the world, in these
days of steam and railroads, can bo accomplished
cheaply and quickly. Planters are exultant and
jubilant at tho prospect of cheap labor, and an
unlimited supply, of tho article. If the great
Northwest hns continental Europo and its con-
tignons islands for a recruiting field for laborers,
tho South has Asia. Tho now regimo is likely
to inangurato a new irrepressible conflict, one
that will perhaps bo more difficult of solution
than the old one.
But it would bo well for men to pauso nnd
consider tho probable effect which tho immenso
reinforcement of Chinese labor may have on
the price of tho two great staples of Southern
industry, sugar and cotton, before embarking,
neck and heels on this now bubble. .
If Chinese labor can bo employed as cheaply
and as effectively as many suppose, is it unrea
sonable to suppose that the cotton crop of 187!
will reach, in round numbers, 5,000,000 bales,
and that the sugar crop will approximate doublo
its presont bulk, if it does not reach it? If this
premise is correct, and to mo, at least, it does
not seem improbable, can the present prices of
these staples bo maintained? Certainly not.
On tho contrary, is it not likely, that under tho
increased production, prices aro almost certain
to tumble down to what they wero in ante-bel
lum times ? And with them will also topplo tho
roRe-eoloTed hopes and calculations of many.
The questions involved, which have hoen
merely hinted at, it seems to me, aro not alto
gether unworthy of serious consideration.
I am not ono of thoso who beliovo that chonp
labor is tho grand embodiment of patriotic do-
sire. I wish somo man of ability would elabo
rate tho subject to which I havo merely al-
lnded.
It is now estimated, after sufficient timo for
examination, that tho flood ruined one-third of
tho growing crop in tho Colorado Valley. Tho
flood extended west to Son Antonio and beyond.
Tho wator in many of tho rivors roso fivo or six
foot higher than it did in tho great flood of 1833.
Tho valloy of tho Brazos escaped entirely this
time.
An Irish potato weighing four pounds was
recently unearthed near Bonham. What State
can bent that ?
Notwithstanding tho gTeat destruction by tho
flood, it is estimated thnt provisions will be
abundant in Wcatom Texas next year.
Weather vory warm, and no caterpillar yot in
destructive numbers, nnd it may bo doubted if
tho genuine caterpillar hns appeared anywhere
on tho Brazos this year. Pin Fois.

LETTER FROM SECRETARY LEWIS.
Macon, Ga., August G, 18G!>.
Pear Sir: In reply to your inquiries of tho
27th ult—This: In order to bo known as aux
iliary of tho Stnto Agricultural Society, your
county Soeioty must organizo with a written
constitution, and send the names of your officers
nnd members to this; your Society will then bo
entitled to send ten delegates to two annual
conventions to tho Stnto Agricultural Society,
for ono fair on tho railroads, and to a copy of
tho transactions of theso conventions. It is
contemplated, and will doubtless be so deter
mined by tho Exocutivo, to have annually two
conventions of tho Society, one in February and
the other at the annual Fair. Theso conven
tions will bo composed of members of tho Soci
.«ty» who boconuTso by paying two dollars, nnd
of delegates appointed ns above. In tho last
convention there were ten delegates from each
Society.
To become individual members yon pay two
dollars annually. This entitles you to a card
or certificate of membership, which certificate
entitles tho holder to exhibit at tho Annual Fair
any number of articles and animals without
charge ; to go into and out of the grounds and
buildings nt nil times, without hindrance or ex
pense ; to encamp on the grounds, and to attend
and participate in the meetings hold during tho
Fair.
Tho members of tho Society first, and next
the members of County Agricultural Societies,
will be entitled to the pnblie documents nnd
other books, and seeds now in this office for
distribution.
The immenso gathering of strangers hero at
tho Fair, from all sections of tho Onion, who
must depend upon the hotels of tho city and tho
neighboring towns and cities for accommoda
tion, make it incumbent upon Georgians, espe
cially upon the farmers and planters to come
with tents nnd camp equipage and snpplies,
and locate on the grounds. Fuel will be sup
plied at cost. The advantages of this arrange
ment in giving tho planters superior facilities
nnd opportunities in inspecting every depart
ment of tho exhibition and for social inter
course and interchange of views with thoso of
his own occupation, will fully compensate him
for all inconvenience.
I send you copies of Premium List and hopo
you will return to this office the name of your
Society, with list of officers and members, and
that they will appear on the ground in good
time, armed and equipped as the law directs.
A premium of a ten dollar cup will be awarded
the club which shall appear on tho ground with
the best tent nnd equipage and supplies pro
dneed at home. This cup is to be awarded by
the County Club to tho most deserving exhibi
tor at the Annual County Fair.
I suggest to planters to come prepared to
purchase agricultural implements. The exhi-
**"biUon in this department promises to 1«3 with
out parallel. Mr. Brinley, of the Kentucky
Plow, has given me notice that he will giyo a
set of his plows as a premium to the exhibition
of tho best bag of cotton. If you have that
bag down in Laurens you had as well bring
along with you.
Very Respectfully,
D. W. Lewis, Secy.
Messrs. Jno. M. Stubbs, and others, of Com
mittee of Laurens Co. Ag. Scoiety.

Extraordinary Story of the Niameac
Twins.
Their Personal Habib—Dijiniltiet if Their
a°rntfer~ 1 ^‘ a a baptist—Chang
a ^alholie Eng a loyalist—Chang a Rebel.
TJT make twain.
-.fiwf; Sla ' ne! : e Twins are naturally tender and
Mfactionate in disposition, and have clung to
each other with singular fidelity throughout a
long and eventful life. Even as children they
?T er ® !£ S ? pa , rable companions, and it was no
ticed that they always seemed to prefer each
other s society to that of any other persons,
lhey nearly always played together, and so ac-
customed was their mother to this peculiarity
that whenever both of them chanced to be lost,
Bh0 usually only hunted for one of them, satis-
hed that when she found one she conld find the
other in the immediate neighborhood. And yet
these creatures were ignorant and unlettered—
barbarians themselves, and the offspring of
barbarians, who knew not the light of philoso
phy and science. What a withering rebnko is
this to our boasted civilization, with its quarrel-
mgs, its wranglings and its separations of
brothers !
As men, the twins have not always lived in
perfect accord, but still thero has always been a
bond between them, which made them unwill-
ing to go away from each other, and dwell apart.
They havo even occnpied the same house, as a
general thing, and it is believed that they have
never failed to even sleep together on any night
since they were bom. How surely do tho hab
its of a life-time become a second nature to us !
The twins nlways go to bed at tho samo time,
but Chang usually gets up an hour beforo bis
brother. By an understanding between them
selves, Chang does all the in-door work, and
Eng runs all tho errands. This is because J2ng
likes to go out. Chang's habits aro sedentary.
However, Chang always goes along.
Eng is n Baptist, but Chang is a Roman Cath
olic ; still, to ploaso his brother, Chang consent
ed to bo baptised at the samo time Eng was, on
condition that it should not “count.” During
tho war they were strong partisans; both fought
gallantly through the great struggle—Eng on
tho Union side, Chang on tho Confederate.
They took each other prisoners at Seven
Oaks, but tho proofs of capture were so evenly
balanced in favor of each that n general army-
court had to bo assembled to determine which
one was properly the captor and which the cap-
tivo. Tho jury, among whom was tho Hon.
Samuel Wilkeson, then correspondent of »ho
Tnbime, was unablo to agree for a long time;
but the vexed question was finally decided by
agreeing to consider them both prisonera, nnd
then exchanging them. At ono time Chang was
convicted of disobedience of orders, and sen
tenced to ten days in tho guard honso; but Eng
in the (qiito of all arguments felt obliged to
share his imprisonment, nnd notwithstanding
ho himself was entirely innocent, nnd to savo
tho blameless brother from suffering, they had
to discharge both from custody—the just re
ward of faithfulness.
Their ancient habit of going always together
had its drawbacks when thoy reached man's es
tate nnd entered upon tho laxuiy of courting.—
Both fell in love with tho same girl. Each tried
to steal clandestine interviews with her, bnt at
tho critical moment the other would always turn
up. By-and-by Eng saw, with distraction that
Chang had won the girl’s affections, and from
that day forth, lie had to bear the agony of a
witness to all their dainty billings and cooing.
But, with a magnanimity that did him infinito
credit, ho succumbed to bis fate, and gavo coun
tenance and encouragement to a state of things
that bade fair to sunder his generous heart
strings.
He sat from seven every evening until two
in tho morning listening to tho fond foolishness
of the two lovers, and to tho concussion of hun
dreds of squandered kisses, for the privilege of
sharing only one of which he would have given
his right hnnd. Bat ho sat patiently, and waited,
and gaped, and yawned, and stretched, and
longed for two o'clock to come. And he took
long walks with tho lovers moonlight ovenings—
sometimes traversing ten miles, notwithstand
ing ho was nsually suffering from rheumatism.
Ho is an invetcrato smoker bnt ho could not
smoke on this occasion, be cause tho young lady
as painfully sensitivo to tho Bmell of tobacco.
ng cordially wanted them married, and dono
ith it; but although Chang often asked tho
momontons question, tho young lady could not
gather sufficient courage to answer it whilo Eng
was by.
nowover, on ono occasion, after having
walked somo sixteen miles, nnd sat np till near
ly daylight, Eng dropped asleep from sheer ex
haustion, nnd then tho question was asked and
nnswored. Tho lovers wero married. All ac
quainted with tho circumstances applauded tho
noblo brother-in-law. .His unwavering faith
fulness was the themo of every tongue. He had
stayed by them all through their long and ardu
ous courtship; and when at last lhay wero
married, ho lifted his hands nbovo their heads,
and said, with impressive unction, “Bless ye,
my children, I will never desert yo!” and ho
kept his word.. Magnanimity like this is all too
rare in this cold world.
By nnd by Eng fell in love with his sister-in-
law's sister, and married her, and since that day
they have nil lived together in an exceeding so
ciability which is touching nnd beautiful to bo-
hold, and is a scathing rebnke to our boasted
civilization.

Tho sympathy existing between these two
brothers is so close nnd so refined that the feol-
ings, tho impulses, tho emotions of the ono are
instantly experienced by the other. When one
is sick, tho other is sick; when ono feels pain,
the other feels it; when ono feels angered, tho
other’s temper takes fire. Wo havo already

Tlic Tragedy In Eilgcfleld—'Two Men
diubnscnilcd and Shot.
On yesterday evening we wero informed by a
gentleman just from Edgefield Court House,
that the Cresswell difficulty bad terminated in a
fearful tragedy. As otrr readers are all aware
of the nature’ of the affair out of which the
difficulty between tbo Addison family and Mr.
D. Cresswell arose, we will not allude to it in
this connection, bnt merely give the history of
recent tragedy, as given ns by onr infor
mant. On last Wednesday afternoon, Mr. D.
Cresswell nnd an older brother, Mr. Charles
Grass well, left this city in a buggy to return to
their homes, near Ninety-Six, South Carolina.
Lato on the evening of that day the two
brothers reachod Edgefield Court House and
stopped for the night at the village tavern. On
yesterday morning, between eight and nine
o'clock, the Cresswells again started on their
journey, taking in the buggy with them a_ six
teen-shooting Winchester rifle, as if anticipat
ing trouble. They had not been gone long
when some one came into the town and said the
two men had been murdered. A party imme-
diatelv went out to ascertain if the' rumor was
correct A mile iind a half from Edgefield, on
the road to Ninetr-Six. the bodies of the Cress-
wells were fount Tho older, Charles Cress
well was perfectly dead, tho body being almost
riddled with buckshot D. CressweU was seri
ously if not fatally, wounded. One hand was
pierced by two balls; the other hand by one.
The chin was also struck. One ball entered the
side, another the stomach. The latter is re-
ported to havo said that two men were concealed
by the wayside and fired simultaneously as they
saw the buggy, afterwards making their escape.
He identified one of the party as George Addi
son, Jr., a brother of the young lady of the
affair. The wounded Cresswell is now an
inmate of a private house in Edgefield. No
arrests have yet been made.—Chronicle ana
