Early in the day .Mr. Tillmai of South Carolina secured th adoption of the following re6olu tion : "Whereas the Supreme Cour of the I'nited States declared ii the care of I-eisy vs. Hardin tint no State had tho right to prohihi the sale of liquor within its owi borders in original packages, up 011 the ground that it was an in terference with interstate com rnerce ; and.

The consideration of the tariff 1 bill began with schedule C. rela-\ ting to metals and manufacturers fl ' r 'of metals. The lirst paragraph. L*1 on iron ore. etc., went over at the j "j request of Mr. Quey. The para- | graphs on iron in pig* and on * bar iron were the same in the ' House and Senate bills. Mr. Jones ' ^ j of Arkansas took occasion, how-! 1! over, to make a statement to n j show the absurdity, he said, of *, keeping n|> the taxes on these products when the American products had absolute control of the market and shipped large quantities abroad. A discussion arose on paragraph ! _'.*?, relating to hoop, band and iron, including the hands u-ed in baling cotton, Mr. \'est pointed out that (lie McKinl -v rate \\, ij- i" i.i : 111 u 11 -on i>:: I ma Ic " cotton tie* tree. and the Senate 1 hill now proposed to make the ' 7-lOc. per pound. <'otton was so depressed that the restoration of ' the dutv was not warranted, Mr. \*est said: Mr. Mills of Texas also opposed 0 the rate, saying it was equivalent 1- to I" cents a hale on cotton, or d >oo,o<in on a cotton crop of !>, itoo,000 hales. Why was this dis" tinction made between the North f and South? he asked W'liv <ti<1 the North receive free binding f twine while the cotton ties of the - South were taxed? ' Mr. Bacon of Georgia called on - the committee to explain tho dish tinction between tho wheat growk ors of the North and the cotton - growers of the South. Thero was no respouse, and Mr. Vest otl'ered an amendment to strike cotton ties from the dutiable hist. The amendment was defeated? yeas 21, nays 28?and the paragraph was agreed to as reported. On the Vest amendment on cotton ties, Messrs. i'ritchard of Norrh Carolina and Deboe of Kentucky were the only men from Southere sections voting in the negative. Messrs. Harris of Kansas, lleitlield and Kyle voted with the Democrats in the allirmative, and Messrs. Jones of Nevada and Stewart with the Republicans in the negative.

A MODKRN' INDUSTRY. A Dissertation on ^ iritr. How < vvsters-HaisPlanted ^or **'?' Hivalves are v0r t- and "Farmed.'" li Oyster planting and oyster! farming are important modern industries in which millions of dollars are invested and which give employment to thousand of persons. The demand for oysters which is constantly growing, is at present much in excess of the natural production, so that artilicial means of increasing the1 supply are in demand. The oyster grounds now yield, through the application of methods not long discovered, for more than they ... ~1.1 A. il i : l _ l v% mi ni iifti ui iiiiv huh u i* Ham that by proper care they can be made to produce an almost unlimited quantity. I In early days, before the beds were exhausted by r?ekiess using, j oysters were found in great abundance along the coasts of this country and were of great si/.e tine quality. In 1 *17!> two Dutch writers in a "Journal of a Voyage of New York" spoke ot t lie abundance of the oysters in the neigh-' borhood of what is now Brooklyn and say that they found them lnriro and foil, mnnv licini' ?m?r? than a foot long. Kven at that time Now York oysters were exported to the West Indies', either pickled or fried or imbedded in a solid, air-tight mass of hotter. There are three sources of oyst< r? : Natural beds, planting and fanning. Planting consists in placing the young seed oysters upon bottoms favor ihle for their growth. <>y ter fanning i- the rearing' ! oysters from the egg. The natural bed i- an oyster rock, on which the oysters are packed so near together that they cannot lie llat, but grow vertically, side by side. Hv planting the number of oysters is not in-1 creased but the conditions of growth are made favorable, since on the natural beds the young oysters fasten themselves so close together and in such great ruin ber that the growth of one means the destruction of hundreds of others. Planted oysters also prow more rapidly and are of better quality. There, are several methods of oyster farming. < >ne of the most successful eonsitsin placing clean 'oyster shells upon the bottom, just before the spawning season, 1 for the attachment of the young, and then placing among these shells a few mature oysters to furnish the eggs. As soon as the young grow large enough they are distributed over the bottom. This is the system which has been followed for more than fifty years in the KastKiver, New York city. Although the development of oyster farming on a large scale is modern, the Italians have raised oysters in small quantities for more than 1,000 years. ? A Murderous Attack. At an early hour last. Saturday morning a house, on Miss Attie Ilieklin's place near Kascomville, occupied i)y two negro women, Amanda Cherry and Amanda Noul, was entered by Allen Neal, colored, who proceeded to make a murderous attack upon the two women, using an axe and a knife. The villian left hurriedly, thinking. no doubt, that he had slain tne women. Although so frightfully injured, one of them was able to make affidavit as to the w.-uld-be-mur^^ JXT r.tnt '^"'eu |,y Magistrate Miiiors H>-! , , .is brutal negro was arrested at Fort Lawn Saturday afternoon, j brought here and lodged in jail to await trial at the dune term of court. From statements made, it ap . pears that the younger of these women, Amanda Neal.tR the wife! of Allen Neal, and that a short; time ago she left him,and went to i make her home with her mother , near Rascomville. The terrible | affair mentioned above grew out. of an effort of Allen Neal to force his wife to return to his house. The attending physician, Dr.VV. 1). Wylie, reports the women as in very critical condition, with little prospects of recovery.? Chester Reporter, dune 10th. HOW TO FIND OUT. Fill a bottle or common water glass with urine and let it stand twenty-tour hours; a sediment or settling indicates a diseased condition of the kidneys. When urine stains linen it is positive evidence of kidney trouble. Too frequent desire to urinate or pain in the back, is also convincing proof that the kidneys and bladder are out of order. WHAT TO DO. There is comfort in the knowledge so often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Koot, the kidney remedy fulfills every wish in relieving pain in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder and every part of the urinary passages. It corrects inability to hold urine and scalding pain iri passing it, or bad effects following use of liquor, wine 01 beer, and overcomes that unpleasant necessity of being compelled to get up many times during the night to urinate.
