Through the Democratic defeat in Ohio, Tbormau has become an impossibility. | While Tilden may be able to control a j considerable following at the North and . ft limits one at the Sooth, we feel confitKof hfifnTA the assembling of the acuv vuwv National Democratic Convention i will become perfectly apparent to his backers that he "cooked his goo9e" completely when he cowardly abandoned bis rights in the last election. The Sonth cannot afford to sacrifice her self-respect by ever again supporting this political knave and eoward. At the first view it would seem that the only man of great material proportions left on the Democratic side, is he en who is not and who never has been a 1- candidate; he who never schemes, never intrigues, never stoops to conquer. Whose financial theories are in accord with those of the East and not objectionable to the South?Thomas F. Bayard. " But Bayard's is not the only name that looms into prominence. There is Gen. Hancock, to whom General Chalmers, 01 Mississippi, a recognized leader of the solid South, referred in the following language in a receut speech delivered ai Corinth, Mississippi: "If the Democracy of the North wil only give us a fair opportunity we wil demonstrate Eo the world that we hav< no jealousy of the Union soldier. If thej will only nominate as our standard bearer in 1880 some gallant soldier, wh< loved the Union and sealed his faith witl his blood, who fought for the preserve tion of the Union and not the destructioi of the Slates, who was satisfied when tb South laid down its arms and refused t< oppress and crush a conquered peoplethen a wild shout of applause will go U| lUJlk- Wjf cc o and re-echo as it comes boominj across,the Ohio until it awakens are ponsive chord in the hearts of the Unioi k soldiers of the North." These are true and interesting state laeiits of Gen. Chalmers. Gen. Hancocl is a 0T*flfc soldier, a hrnnd snd lihprsl gfll ~ ?"lr ' DA minded man and not a politician.

Thkoovernors of Wf Connecticut, Virginia, ^Pennsylvania, f South Carolina, North Carolina, Deleware, Maryland and Massachi^etts were present The .Governors of tEW other five States were not present Governor ?. Holliday, of Virginia, was chosen president \ Governors Hall, Jarvis and Simpson i and CoL Linooln spoke in grateful termB of the reception they had received, and the opinion was freely expressed that the success of the Yorktown celebration would have a powerful tendency to bring j about unity of thought and feeling between the North and the South. Governors Hoyt, Simpson and HolJiday were appointed a committee on resolutions, and reported the following which were adopted: . Resolved, That we, the Governors and representatives of the original colonies, knowing that the purposes for which we have assembled meets the hearty approbation of our constituents, do hereby eoramend to the people of the United States such celebration of the centennial anniversary "of the surrender of Cornwallis at Yorktown as shall befit the historical significance of that event and the present greatness of the nation. Resolced, That a committee of oue from each State be nominated by the Governors thereof, of which committee Governor Holliday shall be chairman, to make proper arrangements for such celebration. The meeting then adjourned. u ^ The press of the entire country are commenting strongly on a late order issued by Postmaster General Key to the postmasters of the co'untry prohibiting thg forwarding of letters when the State is omitted in the address. For instance, a letter directed to New York, must not be forwarded to that eity, but must go to the Dead Letter Office, as N. Y., does not appear in the address to indicate the j State. So it would be if a letter was addressed, from this place, to any one in Charleston and the S C., was omitted. Although our postmaster might well know the party addressed and that it i was meant for Charleston, S. C., she! could not forward it to that city, but; must forward it to the Dead Letter Of-' fice. It used to be the pride of the De j partment that every imperfectly ad- j dressed letter found its destination. The j PoRtoffice Department should be main- j tained for the convenience of the people ] and not simply for the P. M. G., and his! subs to draw their Ralaries. I J' : ??? CLLE&AL OBSTRUCTIONS TO MIGRATORY FISH. Our Fish Commissioner, Colonel A. P. Butler, under authority of the act creat-! ing his office, went energetically to work * last year, stocking the several streams of s the State with shad and other fish, and i as was the intention of the Legislature, 1 r the people of the diffei^ut sections of the [ StateHH?>ngh which these Rtreams flow ] should enjoy the benefit to result t - . - a! ? It r?n S?lnda River, ' uol. uuuer a nui&> vu ?? ^ above the dam of the Saluda Factory and , cm its tribntaries, they are prevented from doing so, however, as the dam rone entirely across the river and totally obstructs the ascent of fish. The law, Chapter LXXVII, Section 1st and 2d, pp 400, Revised Statutes, says: Section 1. That at no time daring the I year shall there be any permanent obstruction of any kind or nature whatever in any of the inland creeks, streams or waters of the State, to the free migration of fish; and there shall be a close time in all the'creeks, streams and inland waters of this State from the setting of the sun each Saturday, until the rising of the sun on each Monday, daring which time all seines, nets, wires, or any plan or device for the stoppage or catching of fish which obstruct more than two-thirds of any stream, other than a dam for manufacturing purposes, shall be removed from" ? ond ftifi said creeks, streams ur xnwio, ?Uv owner, in whole or in part, of any such obstruction, plan or device shall be liable . to a fioe of twenty dollars for each and every offence, one-half to go to the in! former, and the other half to the use of the county in which such obstruction is found. Sec. 2. All manufacturing companies or persons who have erected, or may I erect, artificial dams across the inland ' creeks, streams or waters of this State, ' which prevent the migratory fish from ? ascending the same, shall construct proper fishways over the same; and should such 5 manufacturing companies or persons re1 fuse or fail so to do, they shall be liable - to a fine of five thousand dollars, recov^ erable by the county in which such dac e has been or may be erected, in a Conrl 0 of competent jurisdiction. The only ameudments which have eve: m | m wolf tff 'iWhPt|Hu'ir S> 1871-72 act 149 pp. 191, and 1877-78 ac 3 494 pp. 529. Each of these ameudmenti apply only to Sec. 1st, as published above r and only change the days of the week 1 wbich tbe obstruction therein mentioned . shall be removed. Thus the 2d Section, 11 as above quoted, is still in force and says ? that a proper fish-way shall existjkrfver (Suluda) all dams - __Injthfi_Rjvised Statutes, TJEapto^^H Sec. 84, pp. 129, it wa^tAadeU^j^a^BS 1 the Commissioner of 'the aliove lavyi^^ iiT-the respective" Circd^w,-^uere stfpB violations are comraittfed. But as the, office of Com'r. of B. of A. S, has beeD abolished, we must conclude that the duty of prosecuting 6uch violations still lies with the Solicitor, or has been transferred to the jurisdiction of the present Fish Commissioner. , As a supply of migratory fish is quite an object of food'as well as of luxury to the people, we trust that our exchanges, Dublished in counties through which the jjfaluda ruD8 or borders, will agitate this subject until we succeed in forcing the construction of proper fishways for the ascent of migratory fish to the mountains. Years ago shad were caught from the Saluda, ia. this county, and sold at 6^ to 12| cents a' piece. Why, after stocking the river aniA,removiug obstructions, can we not hare them sufficiently abundant once more? The shooting of Nix, the uegro postmaster at Blackville, by young Williams, has beeu brought before the Cabinet at Washington, and the affair will be made the basis of action which will precipitate a bitter and prolonged political debate in Congress, coveriug the whole field of the State sovereignty question. The Cabinet will seek legislation from Congress giving the geueral government the same jurisdiction, through the Federal courts, over postmasters aud other Federal officers as it now possesses over revenue officers. The issues iuvolved in the Statute which now gives the general government the *1 _ a. r * . . .. aiuuoruy 10 iruusier causes 01 revenue agents from State to Federal conrts will be discussed in the Supreme Couf^ with in two or three weeks. S Attorney-Geueral Devens in his argument before the Supreme Court of the United States ou the Virginia case, contended that according to the reconstruction legislation of Congress the colored men whose cases were before the court < had the undoubted right to demand trial before a jury of their own race, and in answer to interrogatories put to him by Mr. Justice Field, said that Chiuese and , Irishmen had the light also to demand ' to be tried before a jury of their own race. This would imply that Mr. Devens , thinks that every German, Englishman, j Frenchman, Italian, &c., has the same;; right. The position of Mr. Devens is i too ridiculous to merit comment- I j The second exhibition given at Fleet- i wood Park, New York, ou Thursday, by Mr Butler, of Hamburg, S. C., of a negro and a pack of bounds attracted about I three dozen men and youths, aud as a 1 speculation v\asa dismal failure. i ?

The fellows wb( hold *'fat positions," with stealings, ii the bureau would be the only sufferer by the change. The Post-office Department is making some lively limes lately. In his war ot the lottery companies, and refusal tt deliver mail to them, the Postmastei General will be sustained by public sen timent; but in one of his late order about imperfectly addressed letters, Pea con Key has raised a very large gizec hornet's nest about his ears. Uuder thii order all postmasters are forbidden tc forward letters not addressed to the exac designation of the post-cffice and Stab for which they are intended. The October term of the Supreme Court opened on Monday, all the Judges being present except Justice Hunt whc is too ill to come, and who will in al probability never occupy his seat again It is said that Congress will he asked tc retire hiui this winter, and that Attorney General Deveus wauts the place. I don't think it is the duty of Congress in the present emergency to do anything of the sort. There is partisanship enough ir the court already, and it would be as well to postpone the needless creation ol any further vacancies until after the the people have spoken ou the subject ol the next Presidency. It is quite likelj that the party which has been putting its tools on the bench for 20 years past won't have the naming of another foi a while. After the performance of Bradley and his associates in the Electoral Cotuniisiou business, the people have lost some of their revereuce for the court as at present constituted. Phono. The Apache Indians have been committing depredations in the Rio Grarde Valley for several days. A small body of volunteers went to meet them but was driven back. The uumber of people killed in the past few days is over fifty. Maj. Morrow of the 9lb Cavalry, with a strong scouting party has gone to meet them. The Indians are in large bands and seem determined to stay in the conntry aud fight - Senator Lamar, of Mississippi, strongly ravors the nomination of Senator Bayard for the Presidency by the Democratic National Convention. t' a I * Bull Swamp, Oct. 17th 1879. j Miss.

The court was engaged rati) the following Monday noon in takRg^teiKimony. Arguments were made By Senator M. C. Butler, R. G. Bonham and C. L. Woodward, Esq., for the defense, and.Hon. J G. Sheppard, Gen. M. W. Gary and Solicitor Abney for the Stale. On Tuesday at noon the jury rendered a verdict of "not guilty." The other parties concerned iu this case? Marion and Sam Booth, John Carpenter, Dave Kssicfc, Mark Toney, W. L. Coleman, Wade Lott and Elijah Watson? were tried on the evidence brought out in the trial of Benjamin Booth, without argument, and a verdict rendered in each case of "not guilty." The Advertiser says: "The fatal affray k>f the 12th of August was a confused | melee, taking place amid a crowd and frantic excitement, and with apparently a dozen men on either side, shooting wildly. How was the real truth ever to be got at? The speeches were long, and interesting, and ingenious, and able, and ' ^ t? jmaai^aw siviarnm/3 q k1 u 1UU<-1. VUUgo luat/ac.r ?
