The socond priiary, which wias red hot, shows tonight a strong lead for McSwoonoy over Hoyt; James 1-1. Tillmin loads Col. John T. Sloan for Lieutenant Governor and J. 11. Wharton, of Laureus, has a decided load over Railroad Commissioner W. D. Evans. The Gubernatorial race has beon settled all along, and his figures were given this morning in this correspondemce, and there now seems no reason to chango from the figures givon that McSweeney would lead by 12,000 or 15,000. At mid night the News and Courier's figares had McSweeney 7,402 in the lead out of 60,49-1 tabulated. Thero is no possibility of Col. Hoyt pulling up, because thero will hardly boover 25,000 more votes to tabulato. When the report came in that Columbia had gone overwhelming for Mc Sweeney, whereas last time it went for Hoyt, and that Charleston kept its large McSweeney proportion the Hoyt people saw how the jig was going for McSweeney, and so it was no surprise when at midnight the totals of the News and Courier show: McSweoney 34,0(2, Hoyt 27,046. McSweelov's lead at midnight 7,633. During the night it could be soon how the tido in the Gubernatorial race was going by I ho result in Ches ter county. First primary gavo Hoyt 579, McSweeney 600.

Sept ember I1.-The present Stt main which has just closed wits Ir second p)rimnary, has been abouta a camfpaign as has been held ip' State in S many years. it has bos1ninlI of underhand tricks and ruioan s Yi.ngs and shows that the primary sys'?i is just running down at the hoole. The county to county campaign idea is breaking down the p)atienco of the people, and the style of making such a canvass is naturally keeping ont of politics many good men who would no doubt be in auch races if they did ' no.t have to be dragged th)roughl the mire by such men as cannot be kept ont of a freofor.all race. Naturally Governor McSweoney and Col. Hoyt cannot be held respon sible for all that their zealous friends have done, and they thems'elves have tried to keep the primary up to the high standard that ought to be main tained, bAt~ they have both no doubt witnessed intclh that disgusted them aind would neither go through stich a campaign again. It has boon the same in other oflices and the ten doney is to have larger numbers of enItries in each of the contests, and thoro will always be thoso who think that the way to win is to cover the opposition with mud, or at least to throw it, in tho hopo that some of it will stick. Coi.U.m,tIA's 'rURtN-OVFIt. Thoro has boonr i n almost, total change in the vote of Columbia so far as tho Gubornatorial candidates IVe concerned. Notwithstanding strnousi efforts oin the part of Col. Hoyt's supporters and mamy slanders circulated and piblished against (overnor AL!Swvoney he has won in a walk in the cily, and the county gives him imijorities at niarly overy box. The vote ink the cit.y was 1,170 for McSweeney and 088 for Hoyt. At tho first primary Hoyt carried the city. Tne Governor will carry the county by over 800 votes, and it may go to 1,000. The vote in the city by wards follow's: Ward 1, Mc Sweeney 220, Hoyt 104; Ward 2, Mc. Sweeney 211. Hoyt 159; Ward 3, MeSweeney. 203, Hoyt 170; Ward-4 MeSweeney T1, Hoyt 197; Ward 5, McSweoney 228, Hoyt 158. Tniis voTE. The following nro the total votes received so far.

(Ladies' Home Journal.) There was a story many tims old, but entirely without foundation, to the effect that an English lectu. rreor once informed his hearers that Lhe men in America wero smaller in size than Englishmen, and asked any Americans who might )0 present to rise in confirmation of his statement, whereupon Bishop Brooks and two Dther Ameicans of equalling impos ing stature roso in different parts of the hall. This story had no founda. Lion, but it is true that Doctor Brooks was once traveling in tho south of France with another Bishop of the Episcopal Church somewhat surpassing Doctor Brooks himself ini size andl another man equally largo. The three men wont one aifter an. ther to the proprietor of a little bathing establishment, and with serious faces asked to be fitted to bathing suits. The surprise of the proprietor by the time the third gi gantio man appeard can readily be imagined. Sihe Slhould Decii Uer aire, an<(1 Not be Tyrantnizecl Over. (Ladies, Home Journal.) Every minister's wife is deeply in borestod in the work of the church, jut no one should attempt to decide ror her how much of that~ work is her share. The undue binding of burdens upon shoul ders wearied wit h rnch willing service has caused some of us to raise onr voices in pro. :eat, if not for ourselves, for the >vortaxed bodies and brains of our Less fortunately situated sisters. Let i clergyman's wvife decide not to b)0 tyrannized over by circumstances. She, more than many, noods1 to think ut her life wvith care, and come to lefinite conclusions by which she is willing to abide. No regulations con be laid down for all alike, for a wo man must be horself the judge of her abilhties. J4L her see to it, however, that she remains uninfluenced by thoe.iE who would seek to ditect her. It may be laid down as p)art of the remedy that no minister's wife should be at the head of more than one or ganizat ion, and if her home cares are many she should not attempt even that. If she desires to take a class in Sunday.school she need not be given the worst class of boys, nor the most difficult claas of little chil dren.

The money to pay for tle other fivo million bushels, between $5,000,000 and $6,000,00 , goes out, of the State.

Fifty years ago, the world con su11m0d only two andl(1 it half millions of batei of cotton, today it requires, for 11111nual conlsumptionl, eighteon million bales, an incroaso of over 700 per cei, in half a contury.

Cotton today occupies a peorless posiJoln in the trade of tho word, anid is moro king today than it, iniy timo inl its past history.

There ar1-e today 105,000,000 spindles in oporation, they furnishing enough cot ton to kivep in constant uso 75, 000,000 spindles. Of this number about 5,O000 spindles are located in the Soulti, hardly 5 per cent. of tlie cotton manufacturing industry of thIto world. The Earopean nations will always look to the 5'outh for the raw material necessary to furnish clothing for their peoplo.
