Wo copy from the Charleston Conner the an-
nexca passage from a letter to that paper by a
traveling Charlestonian:
The peoplo of Chicago are engaged in making
arrangement* to he the distrilmtory of the teas
of China and Japan, and to make their citv the
groat depot for this whole land. Judging of the
fntnre bythe past, they may bo successful in their
effort. They claim a population of 350,000, and
their wealth is enormous. A party of about
thirty merchants went out to San Francisco
about six weeks ago and have returned. It is
said overy one of them have made arrange
ments to have business direct with California,
and somo of them with China. There are some
beautiful streets in Chicago, equal to any in the
coumry: splendid houses; elegant grounds,
witlv 'ivenues, hot houses, statuary, meet the
eye at every turn. There aro also well arrang
ed parks, with animals, birds, etc., all after the
stylo of New York, bnt on a small scale. But
there is one nuisance, which seems to bo incu
rable—the Chicago river or Bayou is a lino of
lilth, rottenness and stench. It has no current
—the wAtor from batcher pens and distilleries
is poured into it—it is about the color of ink, it
is growing worse every day, and will kill tho
peoplo by and by unless some remedy is found.
The city has been raised somo ton feet above
its original level, but alas! this does not help
tho river. The bridges over it at each street
art* swung open for steamers and sail vessels,
each ten minutes, and during these minutes
peoplo gather at the sides waiting to cross, and
breathing tho horrible atmosphere which is
filled with poison from tho river.
This city, from which I write, has somo no
ticeable peculiarities. It is built of a light straw
colored brick, wLich gives a pleasing soft ap
pearance to the buildings. The houses are
built of a variety of patterns—tho beautiful
French Mansard roofs being all tho rage. Tho
sidowalks are of white pine plank laid across
tho lino of walk. Many streets are paved with
wood, which lasts about fivo years ; others are
gravelled. Stone is scarce, and not very good
for building purposes, hence tho cornices and
window sills of houses aro of pine covered with
sand to resemble brown stone. The city is
built upon a bluff, directly upon Bake Michigan
and has a fino trade. With good railroad facil
ities, of course tho markets aro well supplied.
I find now thoso things you had two months
ago; now potatoes, beans, berries, just in,
watcrmellons, etc. One of tho delicacies of
tho market are tho white fish caught in tho
lake. This delicious fish will not t&ko the hook
and are caught in traps as a matter of business.
Yesterday I rodo up he lako six miles to
visit one. Tho fishermen, were out half a milo
“mending their nets.” On hailing them, they
rowed in—two only—and taking us into their
boat wo went out to see tho way fish are caught
in Lako Michigan. A lino of nets of about half
a mile are strung along on posts driven into the
Lako, and extending into water about thirty-five
feet deep. Hero a trap is fixed of nets about
forty feet square, and a tunnel of nets so ar
ranged that tho fish on striking tho lino of neU
qiid laming to seek deep water swim into tho
tunnel, and so into the trap. Once in, they have
no “brains’* to teach them how to got out. Our
boatmen took us inside tho trap, and tlffcn com
mencing at one side they cautiously “overhauled”
tho bottom of tho net, bringing it to our sido of
the trap and tho fish to tho surface, when tho
“catch** of twenty-four hours was visible. There
wero thousands of fish of all stees and various
kinds, sturgeon, whito fish, trout, sheepheads,
sawyers, herring, Ac., Ac., from six inches in
length to fivo feet. Wo bought a whito fish of
about eight pounds weight for fifty cents, and
returned to land.
Tilt* Administration and Mississippi.
The telegrams, a few days ago, stated that, in
consequence of somo delay nrising out of a vor-
bal mistake by tho administration in tho ap
pointment of a successor to district attorney
Adams, in Mississippi, that gentleman was ena
ble to anticipate his dismissal by a letter of re
signation. Tho Western papers contain the fol
lowing paragraph from this letter, which is a
severe lcctnro to tho administration upon its
courso in relation to Mississippi:
G. Gordon Adams, Ignited States Attorney for
the Southern District of Mississippi, and a prom
inent supporter of Judgo Dent in that State, to
day forwarded bis letter of resignation to the
President, in which he says:
“Though tho offieo is not ono of much im
portance, I can not retain it without being
identified to some extent with an administration
whose acts, so far as they relate to.my own
State, I can not approve. Maj. Wofford, an
officer of the late rebel army, who, in defiance
of tho 'contumely and reproach heaped upon
him by tho Southern people, supported bravely,
and almost alone, in his district, tho reconstruc
tion policy of Congress, has been removed from
office From the late approved published state
ment of your views, I am justified In the belief
that this is done in accordance with tho estab
lished policy of your administration. From the
BftTno sources I learn your confidence in, and sup
port of Gen. Ames, an officer who has degraded his
position as Military Commander of tho 4th Mili
tary District, by exercising its functions solely in
furtherance of his own personal and partisan
ends, unhesitatingly avowing that ho desired
to use the high office of Senator from my State
as a stepping stone to tho appointment of Brig
adier General in the regular army, and whose
whole course in that State has been marked by
a tyrannical exercise of power, utterly antago
nistic to the spirit of the reconstruction laws.
As a resident of Mississippi, and one of the
founders of tho Republican party in that State,
though never a political aspirant, I would bo
false to my Stato and to tho republican princi
ples which I liavo always maintained, if I longer
retained tho office to which your kind preference
has assigned me.*’

Dry WratJier—Prospect* of Cotton—Splendid
Corn Crop—Fodder, etc.
Taujotton, August 15, 1SC9.
The rust has appeared in many localities in
this county, doing considerable damage. I no
tice this more particularly where guanoes and
other manures have been used. The good
prospect wc have had is being blighted every
day. The younger cotton is doing better;
though the ground is very dry. As the fodder
is being stripped from the corn, we find the
crop as good os could be. Have had excellent
weather for saving fodder. “Occasional.”
A Washington dispatch says : “Colonel Van-
dyne, on the part of the United States govern
ment, is here to sue the Nashville and Chatta
nooga Railroad for $1,GOO,000 for rolling stock
sold by the government to tho road. The road
offsets the claim by a bill of over $3,000,000 for
tho use of the road during the war. This will
serve as a test case for a number of other South
ern roads.” .'W «
A dispatch to the Jacksonville Union from
Key West, received Wednesday, represents the
yellow fever still raging in that city : its slight
abatement can only be attributed to the want of
'“‘material upon which to operate. The troops
have nil been removed from the vicinity of the
city, and few strangers arrive. The Catholic
priest who had recently arrived from Havana
to fill the place of Father McDonald, died on
Tuesday evening.
A new movement in yachting is announced.
The New York Herald says : The yacht Meteor,
owned and commanded by George L. Lorillard,
sailed yesterday for a voyage around the world.
Mr. Lorillard expects to be absent several years
on his excursion, as he intends to spend some
time at each place of interest en route.
Timen on Chinese Immigration.
Tho New York Times calls the anti-Chinese
immigration disease which has broken out the
secondary symptoms of knownothingism. and
says:
San Francisco is the port on which, in the
natural order of things, the waves of this Chi
nese inundation most break. The largest reli
able estimate places the present Chinese popu
lation in California at GO,000. The official
records show that during the six months ending
December 30, 18G8, there arrived in San Fran
cisco 7”24 Chinese passengers. During the
same period 1221 persons of the same race em
barked for China, leaving a net apparent gain
of G10.1 during the six months, which would be
at the rate of 1000 per month, or 12,000 per
year. From this sum, of course, should be de
ducted a large percentage of deaths, while no
allowance need be made for the natural increase
of the race by births, os it is stated upon com
petent authority that there are almost no Chi
nese children born in California.
It is twenty years since the mineral wealth of
California was discovered and the American col
onization of the Pacific coast commenced, and
yet the Chinese immigration has only reached
the insignificant sum of twelve thousand a year
—certainly not an amount that justifies any
alarm, even assnming that the emigrants were
not a substantial acquisition to the country,
which w'6 aro by no means disposed to admit.
Ia relation to Chinese labor in tho South the
Times ridicules the idea thus :
There is no danger of more labor coming in
tho United States than is needed. The stream
never rises higher than tho fountain ; and here,
wo may bo permitted to suggest to our Southern
friends, that perhaps they aro mistaken in sup
posing that they are to bo the first victims, as
they are disposed to regard themselves, of the
Chinese inundation. Wages at present in the
South aro only about a quarter of what they are
in tho North, and wo see no reason why the
Chinese emigrant, who comes so much further
than the European emigrant for work, should not
like him seek the market where labor brings the
highest price. Why should he go South, where
the laborer is worth scarcely ftfiO a year, when
in almost any part of the North his labor would
command three times that sum ? The gentle
men who have undertaken, by contract, to sup
ply Chinese labor to the South, we fear, in this
matter, are reckoning without their host. The
Chinese will not work long, either with or with
out a contract, on wages much below the ruling
prices, and when they hear that a few leagues
North they can make in ono year what it -wift
take them three or four to make in .the South,
no contract into which they may have entered
will bo strong enough to bind them very long...
TIte Fence iluestion.
From tie Nexman Herald.
The propriety, advantage and necessity of
repealing all fence laws and enacting others, re
quiring owners of stock to confine them in en
closures, are now being discussed in somo sec
tions of Georgia. In onr opinion the advan
tages of tho change would not outweigh the
evils.
In tho first place the peoplo aro accustomed
to tho present laws on the subject, and have
by common consent ameliorated many evils, ap
parently attached to them. Thus tho law re
quires that “all fences or enclosures, commonly
called worm fences, shall bo five feet high, with
or without being stacked and ridored, and from
tho gronnd to the height of three feet, the rails
shall not bo more than four inches apart, etc,—
Section 1401 of the Code says: H any trespass
or damage shall bo committed in any enclosure,
not boing protected as aforesaid, by tho break
ing in of any animal, tho owner of such animal
shall not bo liablo to answer for tho trespass,
and if the owner of tho enclosure shall kill or
injure snch, in any manner, ho is liablo in threo
times tho damage/’
Tho reader who is conversant with tho charac
ter of tho enclosures of farmers will at onco per
ceive that not ono in ten has a lawful fence,
and, therefore, has no legal protection against
the depredations of stock. But as wo before
said, * interest and common consent, affords
formers with ordinary enclosures full protection,
because it is customary among stock owners,
upon tho first complaint from a fair-minded
neighbor against tho jumping or breaking
inalities of any particular cow, horso or hog, to
at once confino or dispose of tho mischievous
animal. Public opinion forces this and ex
perience demonstrates that it works well. So
wo say that tho absence of legal protection to

of the citizens of a single State in the Union.
In all of the Northern Stales, where timber is
scarce, crops of all kinds are cultivated under
enclosures of somo kind, either fences, ditches
or hedges.
Hence we believe tho proposed change un
wise, and not demanded by interest or tho wish
es of those most concerned.^ The people have
iu not ono pubHc meeting in this State, asked
the passage of this measure, and therefore the
Senator or Representative who urges, or forces
legislative action, on this subject, though it be
simply a rejection, will be running the State to
an unnecessary expense. While Legislators re
ceive nine dollars per day, only measures of
pnblic necessity should receive attention, and
this is not one of them.
ErcnorEvx Dolce far Niente.—The Charles
ton News has a letter from a Beaufort corres
pondent who gives this “good and lazy” account
of the negroes upon the coast:
Tho universal complaint is that the negroes
won't work; that good wages will not tempt
them to do it, and there is more injury to be
feared to the crops from lack of hands to attend
to them than from any other cause. The negrc* a
employ two days of the week in fishing, and
CAtch enough shrimps and fish to get provisions
to last them the remaining days of the week,
during which they sleep. One day last week a
negro woman heavy with child, walked five
miles from Beaufort to a planter and asked him
to give her work. As it was late in the day he
refused, but on her stating that she wanted to
earn ten cents to buy biscuits with, he consent
ed, and the women worked j nst long enough to
earn ten cents, quit, walked back to town, bought
the biscuits and was happy. This is only an illus
tration of the general conduct of the negroes in
the vicinity of Beaufort—only working long
enough to earn money sufficient to purchase flour
to eat with the fish they catch, in doing which
no effort is required.
One of the most audacious robberies reported
for a long time occurred on the New York Cen
tral railroad on Wednesday last. When the
train was a few miles west of Albany two men
entered the Pacific Express car, gagged and
