Marcu wm WILSON' REMOVES. i Another Effort of Florence People to Get a White Postmaster. y-s Washington, May 23:- -The' i i r .i n . \ I enure memoersnip 01 ine ooamuar-1 olina delegation in congress called f t the White House to-day and saw the president in regard to the situation at the Florence postoffice. J.E Wil- i son, the present colored incumbent,' has been the postmaster the re for about sixteen years, aud recently a movement was commenced by the citz;nsot Florence to have him removed. Several meetings of the people of that place have beeu held with this object in view. Representative Ellerbe was the spokesman for the party to-day and told the President among other things tha^Wilsou is and for s?>nie time past has been incompetent to properly discharge nf thn r\f?i ?-"V UUHVJ Vi U1V VUiVVi lie is quite au old man and is not -able to five personal attention to the work of the office. The assistant post master and the clerks and employees r ?in the office are young negroes, and the conduct cf the office, because of Wilson's age and physical condition, has fallen on them. It is said that they are impudent, impolite and wanting in a high degree in courtesy And politeness. It was shown in addition to this that nearly 100 per cent of the patrons of the office, including both white and colored people, desire a change. Mr Ellerbe asked ' that some suitable person be named ' for the place, and that if it was not , -possible to do this uow that the president would at least not make a recess appointment. The president told the delagation that he would give the matter the , ?inost careful attention. The name of W.J. Stroud has be<-n submit!ed for Wilson's place, and it is understood that his appointment would give entire satisfaction to the patrons of the office.?Xctrs if Courier.

There are very few farmers who have cash a-'d no corn. The man who buys coin at this time has to send out of the country cash that would be very acceptable at home. If York county should raise all the corn she needs,there would be a great deal more ?ish than there is. because, approximately speaking, every bushel of corn that comes here from the West pinches one dollar off of the local circulation. All good business men have more or less appreciation of the extent to which corn is a money crop. It is only those who have less business capacity who hold that there is no money in corn. It is very rarelv the case that a farmer who makes enough corn to run him until the next crop geta into financial difficulty and it is almost as rare when a farmer who fails to make sufficient corn to run his place, gets to the nest crop without troubles.?Yorkville Enquirer.

Also a n/~ ss GOODS Jefferson Davis. j Let those who call him "traitoi reail his farewell s}>eech to the Sen at*, and they will stand mute. The 'accusation will die unutteret} on ' their lips. In that speech, a masterpiece of > logic, and burning with the eloquence ' | of sincerety and supreme conviction, 'j Mr Davis said: "I well remember an occasion when Massachusetts was | arraigned before the bar of tlie Seni! ate, and when the doctrine of coer, cion was rife and to be applied against her because of the rescue of I a fugatite slave in Boston. My opI inion then was the same that it is now. Not in a spirit of egotism,: but to aliow that I am not influenced I in my opinion because the case is my own, I refer to that time and that occasion as containing the opinion which I then entertained, and on which my present conduct iV bused. I then suid, if Massachusetts, following her through a str line of coaduct, chooses to-take last step which separate her r <e Union, it her right to gi id S will neither vote one dollai jr oue man to coerce her back; but will say to her God-S|ieed in memory of the kind association which once existed between her and the other S tates." Whatever others may have thought of him?and strong iu his own convictions of right and wrong, he respected the opinions of others who differed froia him?to his own people, thinking as he thought, believing as he believed, he was and will always b? the object of the?r devotion and undying love. Others there were who came?not friends of the time when he was president. James Redpatbjhe fiery abolitionist,, the man who wrote the "John Brown Invasion" and the "Life of John Brown," the man who had denounced Jefferson Davis,, was entertained beneath that hospitable tree. Walking beneath the g>*nt oaks,, strolling along the sandy beach, sitting upon the great wide veranda in the twilight, they came to know each other ultimately and well, and there sprung up between them aj friendship born of mutual respect, | of lofty purpose urnl of noble minds. j All was over then, tne bitterness,' the blood-shed, the fighting. Didj zens of a reunited country, they !could look back over the past-with 9 j no bitterness, no regret. Each had i done his duty as God had given hnn I to see it. What may have been said j between them in the days of that j winter, n<> one will ever know; but . their souls were gripped together, as ' it were, with hoops of steel. During that time Mr liedpath came to see that Jefferson Davis was a man among men, and after Mr Davis' death it was he who wrote for the j Overland Magazine that superb1 eulogy ou his life and character, entitled "Jefferson Davis Was Not a Traitor."?From "lieauroir" by Saunders Wilburn, in Taylor Trotwood Magazine for June.
