TUESDAY, OCTOBER 4. J. A. MOOD. M. D. I v D. B. ANDERSON, j rjDIT0R*' EDITORIAL NEWS SUMMARY Atfa-nta expects 1,000,000 visitors io its Exhibition. The President's sickness will cost $250,000. Congress will pay it. Richland County bas about 271,144 profes? sional teachers. Mr. Lowndes' loss of rice on San tee will be about 650 acres or 30,000 bushels of rice. Kalakau, king of the Sandwich Islands, j called on President Arthur last Wednesday morning. The Court of General Sessions for Ander? don County convened yesterday, with Judge T. B. Fraser on the Bench. The eourt martial of Mason, the soldier who j shot at Guitcau, has been postponed until ? after the Yorktown centennial. ' -j Though Mr. Arthur is the son of a Baptist | minister, he attends the Episcopal service, to ! which denomination his wife belonged. j Mr. Blaine is training his son for Congres- J Siooal ambition and honors. We hope he j will succeed better than Lord Chesterfield did. j The newly-found portrait of Christopher j Columbus represents him as about 40 years of j age, with dark bair, a brilliant eye and peak- j ?ed nose. New York's real and personal property is ! "assessed at $1,255,355,SCO, an increase of j $40,0007000 in the iast year. Many millions j probably escape assessment, i The cities of Philadelphia and New Yor:< i could, without much difficulty, gather to- j gether enough cf the mourning goods to sup- j ply all of the Michigan sufferers with suitable | oater garments. The good brethren from this country at- : tending the Methodist Ecumenical Council in j London are very much shocked at being offer- j ed ale and other wicked beverages by the dis- j languished divines of England. U. S. Grant, Jr., has regularly established j himself in the banking business on Wall J street, New York, having associated himself j Mr. Ferdinand Ward, under the firm name of j Grant & Ward. In the beginning of the late war, when the Government was somewhat slow in ac? cepting the services of the volunteers, Don i Piatt sent the following telegram to Secre- j tary Cameron: "If you don't accept my j company of cavalry I'll turn it into a circus j company and leave you in the cold." Ground is so valuable in New York and elevators so handy that all great structures are making up in height what they may lack in breadth and depth. Ten stories are not uncommon. Gardens on the roof are begin? ning to be projected. ""The wreath of the Queen of England," ?says ex-Judge Lochrr\ne, of Georgia, "placed on the remains of General Garfield, will be fragract-in the history of the future, and makes sweeter tue courtesies between the two greatest nations on the earth." The medical fight over Mr. Garfield's case is bound to be a bitter and prolonged one. Dr. Boynton is already on the war-path, and j Bliss has sounded a snort of defiance. It is j distinctly stated that at least forty days before j death Garfield was either delirious or uncon- 1 scious, and, therefore, the amount of lying j done by somebody was enormous. Ten days ago. during the freshet io the ? Wateree, thousands of watermelons and pump? kins were seen floating down the stream.- j They were taken up from the low lands along j the river. Immense quantities of limier and j brush were also carried down. A great many j shingles and shingle blocks were carried down ; by the swift current. The damage done by the late rise is said to he much greater than it ?was at first thought to be. An appeal to the Supreme Court has been taken in the case of James J. Clyburn, now confined in jail at Camden under sentence of ?death. As the appeal cannot be heard before December, it is not probable that he will be hanged on October 2$, the day set for !;"s ex? ecution by Judge Cothran. If thc Supreme j Court grants another hearing, he will be tried 1 again in February. If not, the Governor will j appoint the day for his execution. Mr. William S. Manning, of Sumter coan- j ty, S. C., bas accepted the position of cotton- ? buyer and general agent in this city of the i Clinton Manufacturing Company. Mr. .Man- j ning has been engaged in planting cotton in Clarendon county. Wc are glad to have him ? cast his lot in our thriving little city, and j extend him a cordial welcome. An office h:is j been secured in the new block now ueing j completed above the Railroad Crossing, and j Mr. Manning expects to enter upon bis duties j about the middle of October.-Spartcuburg j Herald._^ Extra Session of the U. S. Senate. ! Pr?sidera Arthur has, by proclamation, convened the Senate ia special session for the 10th of October. Tue opinion seems to be that thc Democrats will then organize that body before admitting the two l?epubliean Senators frcaj Nev." York a::d the o:.e to bc appointed from Rhode Island to s a cv?.

The "third crop*' of "the army" w make a clean sweep. fJnder the favoral seasons of the past three or four \veeks, t crop was looking up, and nearly a full cr would have been made, wp h a late fro: Dut this "army of destruction" "settles t bash" for this year. And yet YVedgefie surroundings will make fully a half crop, not more. The fields are abundant with grass. W.b a time to make hay ! In some ?Q\d$, thc gras if it were all gathered, would next Sprit bring more than the cotton. Think of pa, ing "a dollar and ninety cents" for coar Northern hay next Spring", and allowir thousands of tons of better-infinitely betti hay-to roi in our field, and then talk abeu it being a tight business for a fanner to mal both ends meet in this country. To yoi grass ! To your grass ! ye farmers ! It wi save you hundreds and thousands of dallai and give you something for your stock ti subsist on in the scarce time of next spring. Value cf tho Discipline Enforce S.Z the State Military Academy "Respeci for Law and Order-"Phy? sical and Mental Training. Tho efforts to re-establish the Cite del Academy as ono of thc Educatio: al agencies of the State meet with ready sympathy from ali who har known through their own experieuc or have recognized in others the valu of the system of training there ai optei for fitting young men in a practica manner for the great business of lifo. This result ol" her teachings wa due in large degree to the militar feature of the establishment. Tin rigid discipline possible undei thi system was of great benefit in main ways. Receiving youths fresh from home at that supreme moment when chume tors arc made, or marred, by snrroun di;ng influences, thc wholesome rc straiuts of military discipline scrvoc to preservo thc inexperienced iron the temptations found in promiscuous society, to ?enforce attention to study and generally to mould both mind ant body into a recognition of authority and obedience to law. Thc intense individuality which ii the peculiarity ol' American character and which in after ii!<- has often been the inspiration to high aehioveuicn! and signal success, requires who lo? s?me restraints and checks in youth lo inculcate a reverence for law and ; order. Thc tendency of tho educa : lion at thc Citadel was powerful iti : this diii-cthei, anil ali the recipients ul he i l'*aohi::g, neb or poor, what ever had been the faults or merits ol i horne training, wore placed on thc i same pial form and compelled to obey : tire same rub s.

Tho great lesson hud boen inculca- \ ted that the "duties of I iib more ; than life." 1 A Statement Republicans would Like Verified. A dispatch to tiie Chicago Inter Ocean says: On tue journey with thc funeral train from Washington, the Republican and Democratic Senators discussed the political situation fairly, and roached a plan lo adjust the matters satisfactorily in tho Senate without a wrangle, such as that of last spring;, which would shock thc j country and bc unseemly. Tho ar- j rangement was >i:.i to bo binding" on ; lb use not present, but il is believed thc non-participants will accpt ttie plan Mr. Edmunds, for the Repub? licans, and Mr. Garland, for the Democrats, were the originators of j the talk, and they notified their parly j Diet ids by mai i and telegraph that j caucuses would be hold October Sib at Washington by tho respective i parties, and if the agreement were carried out, a joint committee of five would bo appointed lo arrange de? tails. Thc result of the agreement j was that Senator Anthony or some other Republican selected by the Re? publican caucus should be made act? ing president pro tem. of the Senate j without dissent; that thc Democrats j name the Secretary of the Senate \ (office not vacant) and retain the ; present serges ti t-at-arm s or select his ? successor; i) c political committees to j be undisturbed. The Senate consists ! of T;> members - 37 Democrats, 35 I Republicans, and Judge Davis, who \ will not with thc Republicans in or-j ganizine; tho Senate, in accordance ! Or- C 7 with in's speech last spring, in which j he claimed that the organization of j tiie Senate should harmonize with the j executive. When Senators from New 1 York and Rhode Island are sworn in, ? the Republicans will have a majority, j There would, therefore, be no reason j or profit in triking- advantage of the; present situation." The State Prohibition Convention I at Columbia had dwindled to thirty ; persons on Wednesday, and a mein- j ber suggested that it should be called j a conference rather than a conven- j tion. Resolutions expressing the convie- \ lion of the convention of the evil of the liquor traffic; urging the employ? ment of all legitimate means to sup? press it; anet appealing to the women to discountenance social drinking, to j the press "to uphold the truth and j the right without regard to the inter- j ests of parlies or factions," and to j the courts to enforce the law, were j adopted without opposition. The fourth resolution o? the series j -to appoint an executive committee ! of seven that com mi lice to appoint sub-committees of five in each county to disseminate information on the j liquor traffic, and arrange for meet- j ings and a future convention-caused j some discussion. Mr. Diver, of An-! dcrson, said thcte were only sixteen j members present from outside of Co-j lamb?a, and the body could not bb j called a representative one. Mr. LaAIotte, of Richland, said ! other things than lack of interest-j expenses, business, etc.-would ex- j plain thc small attendance, and Mrs. j Gilbert, of Spartauburg, confirmed j the statement. j Mr. Crews, of Laurens, agreed j with Mr. Lamotte, and said if the i resolution failed, the convention was ! a failure. - Mr Dibble of Orangeburg opposed I the portion of tho resolution pro vi- j ding for organization on the ground j tb at it would be interpreted as a basis j for the organization of a prohibition j party. The resolution was finally j ad ?'pied. Tiie fifth resolution-to memorialize the Legislature for prohibition in ? towns of less than 500 inhabitants- \ was vigorously opposed, and finally ! adopted by a small majority. The convention then adjourned.-Green? ville Neics. Thc Lady who remarked that "J. Theo. Solomons' is certain Iv the best place to bur goons," cniy reiterated thc sentiments of j maa}- citizens.
