Tlio time hat) arrived when our far
mers must arrau: o their field labor
for the pro . ‘lit v: ir. It is always a
period of in tea ■■ anxiety, requiring
thoexev *!:;•• of ;•••• it judgment, pa
tience and Noueitv. Evil and exter
nal influeln- mil' 1 lie met and suc
cessfully eumh: 11 1, in the shape of
sneaking int ; loji. n and private ene
mies, who will : ei k to underniiuo the
influence of t mpl.,yi rs, and deprive
them of their farm lnh irers. All such
should ho poinfed out and exposed,
and it any law will reach their cases,
vigorously prosecuted. Those men
are even worse than thieving carpet
baggers, for they arc enemies and
traitors within the camp.
But now comes the apposite qnos
tiou, how shall I run my farm? Shall
I give tiie freedmen a sharo of the
crop, or pay standing wages.
To the first inquiry it may he said,
that- if tin l proprietor is no absentee,
and ox pc ( to c ■ in person to the
feeding of his shirk, and direct all ag
ricultural o; • ::• I • ii'!< superin
tending the res dr . of fences, corn
cribs, mule shelters, etc., then the
working on shares will do very well,
and lias the advantage of making all
the parties interested divide equally
the risks and vieis link sof the sea
seals. In that event howe’e r, if lie
lias a son or two to help him, and is
himseli abh to hold the plow handles,
ill every case lei him set aside as
much laud as th- y in cult
forthem- ivi . it should be distinct
ly stated in evt ry col Tact al o, what
the freedni at al ■ exp eteil to do in
the way of fencing, manure making,
etc., with a p; •■■■;■ r clause as to any
loss of li no.
On the other hand, however, if
compelled to eiiinist ids business lo
the rue of an agent or overseer,
standing v, : o s are infinitely prefera
ble, for ti c: ii c i . : can a- he be
tween your i nnd tbs
employe, an lid at. time and <i• 1 in
(juonces miv 1 dug. tinted and do
ducted, as should be stipulated in ev
ery insta: >. if the freedm.an is
boar led of the planter,
it is clw.iy pc lent also to hold
back on halt of his wages to the
close of the y. ar. It is difficult to de
termine :,! t! ■pr ■ it price of cotton
what would boa fair rate of hire for
an able I ■ .died !-d>.•ref. This will de
pend in a e : ler.i! !o dr ru: upon
the fertility and texture of the soil.
With ratio:..', we .mould say dIOO per
annum would ho all ho was worth
trader the most favorable circum
stances.
In C.'.rolinia, tk) and found, for
men, or SSO for women, are the ex
treme prir: : iii l.h • h -st farming dis
tricts. Where it is possible to pro
cure temporary labor as it may be
needed, rep. riully in the cultivation
of rice nid oth r cereals, this is by
far the b hrj im, as. has be. n de
ni on strut- 1 on the tidewater planta
tions of the .•;;!inard. But there are
few localities where this can be done.
There is still one other mode of
cultivating the surplus acres, and that
is by lenlk the u to the freedmen
for a given amount of cash or pro
duce.
This should never be done, if avoid
able, for the land invariably runs
down in their hands, and it is almost
impossible to bavo fences and build
ings kepi in repair, and new washes
and gullies arc allowed to furrow the
hillside s. or old ones are converted
info im le chasms.
But if there is no other alternative,
then see to it that no tenant is em
ployed, who ha; not (ho means on
hand to ntuh.'.ain himself and family
during the current year, without any
advances from the proprietor. Oth
erwise, in nine cases out of ten these
advances will absorb all of the labor
er’s profits, and leave him in your dell,
besides making an everlasting enemy
of him, if in<T cd ho does not abscond
and li avc you in the lurch before the
year closes.
On the whole, largo land owners
would do well to mi! oil a portion of
their p,.. •• ... ito relic.'do white
men, aw! if in Me to do tin’s, sow
heavy crop* of gi mn, or allow it to
lie fallow. Tics is far hotter than to
surrender any portion of the patri
monial acres to lazzaroni negroes,
whose very presence as freeholders
will drive off all decent settlers, ami
destroy tin im : Let. value of the re
mainder.
(fid. 1f..: lawny, of Thomasville, in
a late communication to this paper
replete w ‘h \\i c counsels, and his
own rich experience, has advocated
small farms mid concentrated manur
ing as the policy of the South. Tin rc
can be no doubt of the truth of this
position. And now, if the Legisla
ture vii! only enact a dog law, and
restore t! u whipping post in lieu of
imp:-: men u! on the chain- gang, for
both white and black thieves, then,
indeed, will be . -li among us once
more fat porkers, largo flocks of
sheep, mid sleek cattle by the thou
sand, ranging o’er the hills and green
past urea of this liobk commo nvealt b.
But, finally, treat your hired freed
meu with libcmlily and the strictest
justice in all things, itemember you
arc superior to them in education, re
sources and position, and can afford
to he g porous and magnanimous,
and, moreover, this is the most cer
tain way ii ; ‘cure their attachment
and fidelity.

AN IXCIDUKTOF THK UM.KI.UOX.
On the 12th day of June, 1800, T
witnessed a duel between Captain
Jones, commanding a Federal scout,
and Captain Fry, commanding a Itch
ed scout, iii Greene county, Fast
Tennessee. These t>vo men had been
fighting each other for six months,
with the fortunes of battle in favor of
one and then tho other. Their com
mands were camped on either side of
Lick Creek, ft largo and sluggish
stream, too deep to ford and too shal
low for a ferry boat; but there a
bridge spanned tho stream for the
convenience of the traveling public.
Each of them guarded this stream
that communication should go nei
ther north nor south, as the railroad
track had been broken up months be
fore. After fighting each other for
several months, and contesting the
point as to who should havejtho bridge
they agreed to tight a duel, the con
queror to hold the bridge undisputed
for 11 10 time being. Jones gave the
challenge, and Fry accepted. The
terms were, that they should fight
with navy pistols at, twenty yards
apart, deliberately walking toward
each other, and firing till tho last
chamber of their pistols was discharg
ed, unless one or the other fell before
all the discharges were made. They
chose their seconds, and agreed upon
a Rebel Surgeon (as ho was the only
one in either command) to attend
them ill case of danger.
Jones was certainly a fine looking
fellow, with light liair and blue eyes,
five feet ten inches in height, looking
every inch the military chieftain. He
wax a man the soldiers would admire
and ladies regarded with admiration.
I never saw a man more cool, determ
ined, and heroic under such circum
stances. I have read oftho deeds of
chivalry and knightorrautry in the
middle ages, and of bravo men em
balmed in nnidcni poesy; but, when I
saw this man Jones come to the duel
ist’s scratch, fighting, nor for real or
supposed wrongs to himself, hut, as
he honestly thought, for his country
and the glory of the flag. I could not
help admiring the mail, notwithstand
ing he fought for the freedom of the
negro, which 1 was opposed to.
Fry was a man full six feet high
slender, with long, wavy, curling
hair, jet black eyes, wearing a slouch
hat and gray suit, and looked rather
tho demon than the man.
There was nothing feroc'ous about
him; but ho had that self-sufficient
non-cluilance that said, “I will kill
you.” W ithout a doubt he was brave,
cool and collected, and although suf
fering from a terrible flesh wound in
his left side, received a week before,
ho manifested no symptoms of dis
tress, but seemed ready for tho fight.
The ground was stepped oil'by the
seconds, pistols loaded and exchang
ed, and the .principals brought face
to face. I never shall forget that
meeting. Jones, in his military, boy
ish mood, ns they shook .hands re
marked that—
A soldier liravos death for a fanciful wreath
When in glory’s romantic career.
Fry caught up the rest of tho sen
tence and answered by saying—
Yet he bends o’er tiro foo when in battle laid
lew,
And bathes every wound with a tear.
They turned around and walked
hack to the point designated. Jones’
second had the word “Fro,” and as
he slowly said “One—two—three—
fire'” they simultaneously turned at
the word “one” and instantly tired.
Neither was hurt. They cocked their
pistols and deliberately walked to
ward each other firing as they went.
At the fifth shot Jones throw up his
right hand, arid, firing in the air sank
down. Fry was in the act of firing
his last shot, but, seeing Jones fall,
silently lowered his pistol, dropped it
to the ground, and sprang to Jones’
side, taking ids head in his lap as ho
sat down, and asking him if he was
hurt.
I discovered I hat Jones was shot
through the region of tho stomach,
the bullet glancing around that organ
and coming out to tho left of the spi
nal column; besides lie had received
three other frightful flesh wounds
in other portions of his body. I dress
ed the wounds and gave him such
stimulants as I had. lie afterwards
got well.
Fry received three wounds—one
broke his left arm, one iu the left and
the other in the right side. After
months of suffering he got well, am!
fought the war out to the bitter end,
and to day they tiro partners iua
grocery business down South, doing
a good business and verifying the sen
timent of Byron, that, “A soldier
braves death,” etc. etc.
Trusting that the above truthful
narrative will be a lesson to some
people, North and South, that stayed
on tho outside and yelled “Seek
dog!” and are still not satisfied with
the results of the war, let mo sub
scribe myself a reconstructed

A Wcddiug Interrupted.
Fire Driving the Bridegroom and the
Briilc out to a Club House.
[From tho Rochester Democrat.]
A Fashionable wedding was ap
pointed to -take place at the North St.
Haul street Synagogue in the after
noon, and tho editico was crowded.
Tho notes of tho organ swelled out
upon the air us the bride and bride
groom, with their attendants, march
id slowly down the aisle and took
their stations in front of the altar.
The Rabbi, tho Rev. J)r. Laddsberg,
arose and stood before the happy
couple, while silence settled upon (lie
assembled people. The choir, of which
the bride was a member, rose; the or-1
gauist, Prof. Reynolds, had sounder' |
the first notes, when suddenly a loud l
cry of “Fire” was heard near the
door. "Women shrieked and children
l ei i- -1, wl il men sprang to their feet.
A dense volume of smoke burst from
the west corner. A jot of flamo dar
ted up through one of the registers,
i The cry of fire was repeated by many
I voices, and the scene immediately be
came tumultuous; screaiiis of tho la
■ dies and children mingled with the
loud cries of tLo men, who wore try
i ing to preserve order. A general
disorderly rush was made upon all
I for the only point of egress from the!
building. Several ladies fainted away,
j while others were so paralyzed with j
fear that they could not move. At l
one of tho windows two young ladies
broke open holes and proceeded to
clamber out, when they were saved
from injury by men who caught nnd
drew them hack. After several min
utes of great alarm, tho church was
cleared and order restored. Through
out the whole affair tho bridal party
remained firm and composed Ar
rangements had been made for a re
i ception at the l’lucnix Club after the
; ceremony at tho synagogue. As it
| would ho difficult for the ceremony at
the synagogue, tho bridal party ro
| paired to the club where tho wedding
i took place.

Eighteen hundred and seventy-six is tin*
Centennial year. Jt is also tho year in
which an Opposition House of Representa
tives, the ilr.it since the war, will be in pow
er at Washington; and the year of tho twen
ty-third election of a Fresh lent of tho United
States All of those events are sure to he of
great interest and importance, especially j
the latter: and all of them and everything |
connected with them will be fully reported j
and expounded ii Tin-: Sun.
The Opposition House ofltcpn sentalivcs,
taking up the line of inquiry opened years i
ago by Tins Si n. will sternly nml dillij’.'i‘*l,y
investigate the corruption and misde-als of
Grant’s administration, and will, it is to be
hoped, lay the foundation for anew and
better period in our national history. Gl
all this The Si n will contain complete and
accurate accounts, furnishing its readers
with early ami trustworthy information
upon these absorbing topics.
The twenty-third Presidential election,
with the preparations for it, will be memo
rable as <loeiding upon Grant’s aspiration
i for a third term of power and plunder, and :
! still more ns deciding who shall be the can- 1
j pidatc of the party of Reform, and as elec- j
| ting that candidate. Concerning all these
j subjects, those who read TnK Sun will have j
! the constant menus of being thoroughly well
informed.
The Weekly Sun, which has attained a
circulation of over eight thousand copies,
already has its readers in every State and
Territory, and we trust that the year 187<>
will see their numbers doubled. It will be
a thorough newspaper. All the' general :
