Moses, Jr., of South Carolina, was arrested on Broadway last night, and locked up. He is charged with having forged the name of J. Woodruff to a note.for$316, and passing the note upoD James Allan Moses will be taken to Charleston in a few days. EFFORTS TO ESCAPE-AN INGENIOUS: PLEA. NEW YORK, April 8.-10 P. M. Ex-Gov. Moses, of South Carolina, is still confined at police headquarters. He has engaged counsel, who presented to Judge Donohue a petition for habeas corpus, returnable to-morrow. The petition states that the prisoner is arrested ou a requisition purpor ting to be from his Excellency Wade Hampton, Governor of South Carolina, on the Governor of New York for the body of said Moses, charged with for gery; that no warrait from the Gov ernor of New York accompanies the said requisition, and that the alleged forgery is that of a name upon an usurious and void promissory note. The writ was granted. At the same time Moses's counsel telegraphed to Governor Robinson, of New York, ask ing if Moses's alleged forgery of a name upon an usurious and void promissory note was crime and if any pecuniary obligation was so created. [There was no Usury law, in South Carolina, at the time that Moses com mitted the crime with which he is charged.] HISTORY OF THE CRI3E AND OF THE VARIOUS SHIFTS AND DEVICES ADOPTED BY THE SLIPPERY ROGUE TO ESCAPE ITS CONSEQUENCES. The announcement was made in the Associated Press dispatches yesterday that Ex-Gov. Franklin J. Moses had been arrested in New York, on Sun day night, on a charge of fergery, had been lodged in the Tombs and would be brought to Charleston in a few days. It is proper to mention just here that a true bill was found against Moses, at the last term of Lhe Court of General Sessions, in Charleston, and on this very charge, and that in order to further the ends of justice, at the request of the solicitor, no mention of the fact has previously been made in this paper. The facts of the case are these: In January, 1877, F. J. Moses, be ing engaged as editor of a Radical evening paper published in this city, went into the jewelry store of Mr. James Allan, King street, and ex pressed the desire to see some of his choicest stock. The anniversary of his wife's wedding day, he said, con fidentially, was near at hand, and he was desirous of showing his affection by presenting her with some hand some pieces of jewelry. Mr. Allan went carefully through his show cases and exhibited article after article, and after long consideration the Ex-Gov ernor selected a watch and chain, several brooches, rings, &c., amount Ing in value to $316. After the articles had been neatly put away in their cases, Mr. Allan stated the amount of the bill and sug gested that he would like to have cash. Moses replied that he was de sirous of gettirg a little time, and1 -asked if Mr. Alla~n would not consent to take his note for the goods. Mr. Allan stated that he did not feel war ranted in accepting his note, inti mating gently but firmly that it might go to protest. Moses, nothing daunted, then inquired if Mr. Allan would ac cept his note with an endorsement, to which he replied that if the endorser was good he would a'gree. Moses re tired and-the next day returned with the note endorsed by Josephus Wood ruff of Printing Ring fame. The en dorsement being satisfactory, Mr. Allen accepted the~ note and turned the articles over to the "native young Governor." A few days subsequent to this lit tle transaction Mr. Allan met Mr. Woodruff in the street, and, being de sirous of getting some money at the time, asked Woodruff if he would like to "shave" his note. Woodruff, very much surprised, stated that he had given him no note. Mr. Allan stated the circumstanees, and Wood ruff replied that he had not signed the note, that he had not seen Moses within three months of that time, and that he had given him no authority to sign his name. Mr. Allan then obtained an inter view with Moses, which from all ac counts, must have been very rich and racy. Upon entering the room in which the ~Ex-Governor sat, Mr. Allan re marked that he had called to arrange a little irregularity in the note which be had given him a few days before. Moses, somewhat surprised, but with an air of pefect composure, said : "Ah, indeed ! I was not aware of any irregularity. I will be happy to cor rect it." Mr. Allan said : "Well, sir, the irregularity is simply this, Mr. Wood ruff says that he did not sign that note!I" Moses, with the utmost sang froid and smiling blandly, replied : "Why, my dear sir, I-didn't tell you that Mr. Woodruff signed the note; but did he not tell you that he authorized me to sign his name for him ?" Mr. Allan said : "No, sir ! It is quite the reverse. Mr. Woodruff says that he did not authorize you to sign his name, nor has he seen you within three months !" Like a tender plant struck by the winter's blast Mr. Moses wilted. He saw that the bluff game would avail him no longer. so throwing up his, The next morning Moses walked iuto Mr. Allan's establishment with the air of one who had the means to do and the will to dare, asked the proprietor carelessly in what manner ie would prefer to have the matter arranged. Mvr. Allan replied that he would like to get the money. "The money," said Moses, "(of course, if I had the money I could arrange the watter without your consent, but what I would like to know is in what way it would suit you best to have tiis matter settled." "Well," replied Mr. Allan, "if you will return me the articles I will agree t) call it square." "But," said Moses, -1 desire to retain some of those ar ticles, at least, and I have a propo ition to make. which I think, will be satisfactory. I will return you a por tion of the articles and will give you An order on my paper, which will be. paid on Saturday night for the balance." To this &ir. Allan assented as the bcst thing he could do under the cir ,.mstances, and accordiogly Moses re turned shortly with about one hun 3red dollars' worth of the goods, and gave the promised order for the bal ice. When Saturday night arrived the order was dishonored, and Mr. Allan had again to seek redress from Moses in person. Promises were free ly made by the ex-Governor that he would settle up very shortly, and iuring the next few days his father, the Chief Justice, being ill he left the ity to visit him. Shortly after his 3rrival in Columbia Alr. Allan re Iived a letter purporting to have been written by the Chief Justice, ind stating that "Frank" had in Lrwed him of the facts of-the case, md that he would see that the matter was speedily settled. The Chief.Jus tice died, and the next excuse the heir made that he would have to re main in Columbia to settle up his Father's estate. Convinced of the deliberate guilt of oses, Mr. Allan placed the matter in the hands of Solicitor Jervey, who in December last prepared the papers id placed a warrant of arrest in the ands of a trihl justice. Moses must have been on the alert, however, for the very day that the warrant was prepared he left for the North and as remained there ever since. About a month ago the solicitor secured a requisition -for his arrest from the Governor, and a special mgent was deputed to execute the war ant. which resulted as above stated in his arrest on Sunday night. [From the Columbia Register, April 11.] The State Democracy. Plan for Conducting the Primary Elections Adopted by the Executive Committee. Among the business transacted by the State Democratic Executive Corn iittee, at its meeting in this city yes terday, the following general plan for conducting the primary elections was agreed upon, and ordered to be sent to the various county chairmen. The members are impressed with the im portance of the system as the best and fairest method for selecting can didates to be voted for in eaeh county, thereby tending to unify and harmo nize the party throughout the State. The suggestions made in the annexed eries are general in their character, as is entirely proper, for it would be difficult to prepare details which would .operate with equal force and smoothness in every locality. The recommendations of the Executive Committee are embraced in the follow ing points : 1. Aspirants for the position of candidates should be announced in dividually in any mode deemed proper by themselves or their friends, but should be placed distinctly before the Democratic party on their own merits, and not as the candidate of any or ganized body of Democrats. 2. Each aspirant for the position of candidate, when he accepts the nomi nation so made, shall immediately notify the county chairman in writing of the fact, and in the same communi ation state that he is a member of some local club, and subscribe to the following pledge : "I ag-ree to abide by and support the nominations of the Democratic party, and not to ac cept either a nomination or an office from any other source than the regu larly constituted Democratic organiza tion" 3. At least five days before the primary election, the county chair. man shall notify the Democratic clubs of the aspirants who have thus qual ified themselves for the position of candidate, and votes cast for any other person or persons shall not be counted. 4. On the day fixed for the pri mary election each local club shall hold an election for candidates of the Democratic party, and report the re sult in writing, over the signatures of the managers, to the county chairman. At this election none but the mem bers of the local clubs shall vote, and each member, before being allowed to vote, shall take the following pledge : "I solemnly affirm that I am a duly enrolled member of this Democratic club, that I have not voted at this election, and that I will abide by and sustain all nominations made by the Democratic party, whether for Fed eral, State or county officers." 5. Upon the following day, the county chairman and at least two mem bers of the county executive committee shall assemble at the county seat, and aggregate the votes reported, and be fore sundown declare the candidates selected. (5. No one shall be declared the nominee of the party unless he shall have received a majority of all the votes cast in the primary election. T he IHera.id.. T1HOS. F. GRENEKER, W. H1.

Efforts are being made in diff6r ent portions of the State to secure the renomination of the entire st.ate Ticket. The only hint of a change is in the office of Lieutenant- Gov ernor; and this change is suggest ed, not because Col. Simpson will not accept a renomination, but be cause, forsooth, he is not a candi date. If Col. Simpson does not get a nomination till he seeks for it he will never get it. He is not that sort of a man. He belongs to that honorable and once honored class who believe that the office should seek the man. If the other State officers be re-elected he will be re elected with them. But we believe the idea of retaining all the State officers is a mistaken one. We be lieve in rotation in office. These men have been honored by the peo. ple. There are many others equal ly patriotic and competent who de serve like honor. It is probable, too, that some improvements can be made. Governor Hampton will be re-elected, and should be. As to the others there should be a new deal, sonie going out, others re maining in, just as they happen to be or not to be the choice of the; people. .We don't like this lump ig uness. We hope that when the State Nominating Convention meets it will not be trammeled by any pldges or any instruction, but left free to choose as it thinks best. A Very Thin Dodge. One of the strongest arguments against primary elections is that they are so "unwieldy," yes, t1l^at's the word. Not because there is any danger that equal and substan tial justice will not be done to any place or section or pursuit but "un wieldy" because they can't be twist ed around the fingers and manaipu lated by ringsters and wirepullers. Primary elections are just a bit too heavy for the backs of the conven tional combinations of which we are constantly hearing so much. They mean that Lowndesville and Ninety Six, Cokesbury and Bordeaux are entitled to equal respect and con sideration in the deliberative as semblies of the Democratic party with Abbeville. They mean that no one mnan or any single set of a men can run the machine. It is getting outside their selfish control and whether we are willing to ad mit it or not the next campaign will be fought and won as the campaign of 1876 was also fought and won by the country districts and their invincible Democracy. Anything at issue with the selfishness of cer tain schemers is "unwieldy," but the people of the country can carry the primary elections through and they intend to do it, too, or we are greatly mistaken in our men [Abbeville Medium. The Medium hits the nail on the head. It is because -nominating conventions are so wieldy, and be cause they have been so often wield ed by cliques~ in their own interest and the interests of their special friends that the popular voice calls for primary elections. K~nights or H'onor. The Grand Lodge of the Knights of Honor held its annual convention in Columbia last week. The ses sion was a very pleasant and har-J monious one. The following offi cers were elected for the ensuing year: T. S. Mloorman, Newberry, Past Grand Dictator; W. A. Clark, Col umbia, Grand Dictator; S. W. Per rin, Abbeville, Grand Vice Dictator; W. J. Dargan, Greenville, Grand Assistant Dictator ; J. S. Conner, Winnsboro, Grand Chaplain ; El. M. Lipscomb,Ninety- Six, Grand Guide; George W. Holland, Newberry, Grand Reporter ; J. T. Robertson, Abbeville, Grand Treasurer ; L. B. Johnson, WaIhalla, Grand Guar dian ; J. G. Cunningham, Ander derson, Grand Sentinel. Grand Trustees-M. A. Carlisle, Newber ry ; W. R. Jones, Yorkville, and Dr. eorge Howe, Columbia. The Convention. It will devolve on the County Convention that meets at the Court House, Saturday, the 27th, to de cide first, whether this County will adopt the plan of primary elections. We hope it will, and think there is scarcely a doubt of it. Then it must fix upon the plan. This should be as liberal as possible. It will not do to exclude any Democrats from a voice in these elections. It will also have to determine the man ner of choosing delegates to the State Convention. We mention these facts so as to remind the delegates to prepare to discuss them. Whoever has a plan let him submit it. Out of the many plans that will be proposed the Convention will no doubt adept one that will give general satisfac tion. Should a war between England I 3nd Russia take place, as expected, I his country will profit by it, that ( is the country at large. The de- < mand for arms and clothing will ; benefit the Northern and Eastern i Factories, and the demand for pro- f visions will benefit the West and orthwest. The South, however, will be a loser. The price of cotton 1 will come down at first and may 1 remam down. Corn and meat will go up to high figures, and the South, that is planting so heavily t in cotton, will send more money i iway for provisions than will come back to her for cotton. 1 Primary Elections.

The wonderful progress made by lucational interests within the last w years has given a quietus to the ujority of those who were disposed , deny the importance of education. ublic sentiment has, through legisla. X), clearly defined its position on the bject, and it only remains for the rectors of education to provide the quisite means. Our institutions of arning, which are destined to become e grand centres of influence, are in. iced to the necessity of conforming cir method of instruction to the irit and ability of the age. The erage student of to-day, on entering llege, has a specialty in view ; and, bile he readily admits the beauty d importance of a liberal, thorough nation, and of symmetrical mental velopment, he considers education a eans, a matter of dollars and cents. ad he attends that institution which , coneeives to be best fitted to de :lop the greatest amount of brain wer and confer the most practical owledge in the shortest time and at e lowest rates. It is so from the tture of the case; the stringency of e times forces us to seek economy education. Hence the obvious evil making thc courses of study com Isory. The youth who goes to col e with the view of fitting himself r mechanical or agricultural pur itS, and who has neither the time )r the means to take a regular col e course, justly protests when re iired to devote his time to the study those still surviving dead languages. any young men who desire a practi i education are deterred by the array studies in a college curriculum; d, thinking that the college student ust, like a pack-horse, weekly bear I that is placed upon him, they go Business Colleges, or what is worse, together neglect education. The ad to learning must, in many in. aces, be made sho'rt. And those udents whose desires are made sub rvient to their means, must be al wed to consult their own taste in e matter of education. That New rry College is fully aware of this is ~inced in the select course of instruc on, which has been arranged with a ew to business education, and which Le F:neulty believes to be sufficient to eet the wants of those who desire te instruction afforded by a Business ollege. It comprises s'tudies selected om the regular curriculum ; prowi mt among which are Engrlish Gram ar, Arithmetic and Political Econo. y.
