your communication of the 23d

cannot hope by doing ho to throw additional
light on <|ucntionft which have
already been so ably and thoroughly
presented, and the solution of which
is so obvious and simple; but under,
standing from the eommunioation. I
have received that the object contemplated
by the proposed conference is
solely that I might place before you
my "views of the impediments to l-hw
peaceful and orderly organization of
single and undisputed Statu government
in South Carolina, and of the
best methods of removing them," 1
shall avail myself of your invitation
so that I may reiterate in person what
I have hud the honor to submit in
writing, that, i* mv judgment, all
impediments to the object so earnestly
desired by yourself and so anxiously
expected by the people of this State
can at once he removed by the withdrawal
of the Federal troops from
our State House. This action on
the part of the commander-in-chief of
the United States forces would not
only be hailed by our people as an
evidence that civil authoritv is no
J
longer to be subordinated to tho
military power in our country, but it
would establish law, insure domestic,
tranquility, revive our wasted industries,
and give an assurances that this
State is to be restored to her 'oat
rights under the constitution. What
ever grievances exist, whatever
wrongs we sutler, we propose to redress
them not by resort to foroe, hut
hy legal and constitutional agencies.
In seeking such redress, I leal sure ?
and I represent fully tho determination
ol the thoughtful and conservative
portion ol our whole people when

den. Hayes is making a great mistake
in regard to his Southern Commission,
whelhur ho wishes in good
luitli to settlo the Louisiana troubles,
or desires only to draw out expressions
ol confidonce and support
throughout the South. The mistake
is in not heading the party^himself.
He is selecting a civilian to lead it,
and invites half a dozen other mostly
old civilians to tail on after the leader.
Now all the troubles in the South are
intimately connected with ill" war,
and don. llayes and the men he must
deal with bore honorable parts in iho
war. In a tour through the South
Hayes would moet thousands ol men
who respect his manly part in taking
the field instead of remaining at home,

opponents il he should moot ihotn in

that Grant had, hut did not use.
Ilvoii it he Hellishly wishes only to
developo any latent Southern enthusi.
asm over his "policy" he can most
cflectually do no by going among the
Southern people.
Hut, more than all this, there is an
inseperahle objection to Wheeler's going
to Louisiana, lie has been there.
The present troubles are traceable to
the "compromise" ho arrangt d on his
former visit. Ho is Vice-President
because ol that compromise. 11im elevation
is the price that the people ol
Louisiana naid b?r that. vi?ii I
him stay away. In Charles Head's
novel Ihtrd Oas/i, if* given the experience
ol young llardv, a very sound
ami mine man. W idling to be rid of him
the unnatural father calls in a physician,
and the physician pronounces the
young man insane. After a lime, being
sent from one matinouse to another
Hardy finds himself in the keeping of
the physician who^had first certified
to his ins in it y, and who fattens on bis
fortune while restraining bint. I submit
that Dr. Wheeler is not the man,
the facts in the case being known, to
go South lor the purpose ol dealing
with Louisiana. Louisiana will not
receive him cordially. It is said of
young Hardy that he could never gel
get legal satisfaction from the physician,
but it is not recorded that he
mads a bosom friend of him.
There are conflicting tumors as to
the result oi I fie t wo Cabinet meetings
yesterday, but all agree that no final
decision whs readied as to the movements
of tlie troops in South Carolina.
Most of the conservatives who were

The proposition to invite Hampton
and Chamberlain to this city has i??'0?i
reviewed. In tad the Administration,
apparently surprised at the intense
feeling on the Southern question, is
willing to accept any suggestion, Mr.
Hayes said yesterday, in his innocence,
that he waft sure "the Commission
would settle ev ?rything satisfactorily,'
hut he don't believe it.
The attempt to revive the Whig
Party in the South is being pushed by
supporters ol the administration, the
latest bait being to gite the Speakership
ol the House to some old line
whig now acting with, the Democrats
trom that sect ion. The coolness with
which these Hayes men, having stolen
the Presidency, assume that they can
manage other property not be
longing to them, is refreshing. The
Democrats have a clear majority in
the next House, and will clod their j
Speaker, as certainly as the House
assembles. Mr. Key attends to the
Southern part of the P. (). business
and Mr. Tyncr to the Northern. The
reason why Hayes has two of these
officers is said to be because otherwise
he would have but seven ministers, and
h? prefers eight to seven.
It is said to-day that the Commissioner
of Pcsions will step down and
out pretty soon. There art numerous
applicants for the olliee, of course, as
there are for all. It is to be hoped
that Secretary Schurz will find the
right man.

which brought the news lo up, though
travelling at a rate suflioient i<> circle
the earth eight, times in the course of

that side of the earth turned towards
Itiin would be destroyed in an instant,
and the rest very quickly altcrwards.
The heavens would be dissolved, and
the elements would melt with fervent
beat, l'rof. Proctor recites a list of
the sun conflagrations in the stellar
universe, the lirst ono recorded having
occurred some two thousand years
ago. It was seen blazing in the broad
light of day, and it was its conflagration
that first made it visible, when
it was called a new star. There were
other star conflagrations in the years
945, 1204 and 1572, in the region ol
the constellation Cassiopeia, where
another sneet ae.le of t !?<? &um<? Lin.I I-:

looked for again vety soon. In 15J10,
1(501 and 1070 were seen still other
new stars, revealing the same state ot
eenllagration, in the region o( different
constellations. In IMS there was yet
another, which has remained vis.ble.
Mr. )'rector's belied is tliat these stellar
conflagrations are caused hy celestial
contact with meteors travelling on
eccentric paths o: following in the
wake ol comets. For years alter a
comet has disappeared these meteors
Continue to follow in its path.
And the morn the progressive astronomers
tell us about these comets,
the worse lellows they ? the comets-?
Appear to he. They are the gadders
and meddlers ol tin- skies, (lying about
where they are not invited, and making
it- their business to attend to everybody's
else affairs. It is asserted that
the tail ol the comet of 1843 actually
grazed our sun. Newton's comet
came very near it. At any time wo
might, be vi-itrd by a comet mightier
than either, travelling on an orbit intcr.H'etir.g
the sun's surface, followed
l?y flights ol meteoric masses, enormous
in si/.a and many in number,
which, falling upon the Juin, would
excito his whole frame 10 a degree of
heat far exceeding what he now emits.
We have evidence of the tremendous
heat to which the sun's surlaco would

two meteoric masses came into cim.

only these two bodies atl'oeted the

another way. He says in effect that
all but one of these conflagrations
have appeared in tho zone ol the Milky
Way, and that on* in a region connected
with the Milky Way by a
well-marked stream ol stars; that the
process of development is still going

it will ho a grievous injury to more

The Kl lent on aflair out of which the

I effort ol a body ot white citizens to
effect an arrest lor which there was a
warrant, and to suppress, as a lawful
posse, the resistance of an organized
body ot alined negroes to the magistrate
and his constables. While citizens
were ambuscaded, houses were
burned down, the wftole,neighborhood
was in commotion. There was a reign
of terror in the county. No decisive
engagement, between the whiles and
blacks, hud taken place when the arrival
of the United States troops induced
the hlaeksBto disperse. Seven or
eight blacks and two while citizens

Upon these facts the arrests wore
based. Colored witnesses were Attracted
to Aiken by the olFer of fees, and,

up the current talsehoods about South
