All that Mr Melton desires is to j jg~> hack the Democrats, and he will gladly promise to suspend judgment in- j definitely provided he ran induce them ! to ask for mercy. The Democrats have j I Mr. Melton, and they will nut gratify i liim now. Attorney General Brewster wears i ? velvet coat, ruffled shirt front ami i sleeves and patent leather boots; rides ! in a gorgeous yellow carriage with a | eoat of arn>s on it as big as a soup ; plate, and keeps people waiting fori dinner. Besides this, his face is hide- j ously scarred from a burn. May 'lis i' soul never be scarred in a similar way. That was a terrible misfortune which befel Mr. Samuel G. Henry, of Richland, on Friday. His four daughters, in the bloom of youth, while on a picnic excursion are suddenly stricken to death by the explosion of the steamboat boiler. Such a bereavement j U most appalling' in its nature, and calls for the deepest sympathy. When Mr. Warren II. Marshall was ^?ent to Colleton and Barnwell to sift I the election cases, he evidently used an j Jfe; exceeding fine sieve, as he caught j about seventy Democrats and no Re fpjitf- publicans. Yet his first case was an j ignominious failure, and the seconc1 i W& trial now in progress appears equally i ridiculous. Mr. Marshall is not a sue- j ifc'-. iii! a trinnowpr ofthfi wheat from the chaff. Some sacrilegious wretch has stolen the Senate Bible, which for fifty-three years had been kissed by Senators great and Senators small in taking their oaths of office. It was bought in the vice-presideucv of Mr. Calhoun, who first handed it to John M. Clay* ton, of Delaware. 0:1 which to swear i _S|? his fealty. Among the others who; kissed it that vear were Forsvth, J X; Livingston, Webster, Benton, Freling- j Iruysen, nayne ana jonu iyier. lr is uot known whether Bob Ingersoll or the Star Route thieves are responsible for the theft. We don't understand the true inwardness of the Snmter compromise. It is said that Messrs. Earle and Blanding wouJd have no part in it, and left (tie conduct of the negotiations to ?. JC ?- We do no.L.. who partly confessed to wrong, but Uiat thev played into the hand of Mr. Melton is evident by the love-feast that took place in the court-room. Mr. Moise expressed much greater reverence for the Federal government than he showed for the Democratic party several weeks ago in his Samter speech. It is hardly probable after ( this that Sumter will be a very desirable factor ia a Congressional district. 1 \ While the government is engaged in making ^var upon its citizens in ' South Carolina, it suffers whole villages and mining camps to be destroy^ ed by Indians in Arizona. Over a C hand red settlers have been massacred 1 by the Apaches in the past few weeks, ! and the troops are solving the problem ^how not to catch them" with great J success. "The only good Indian is a ' dead one," and it would certainly be more consonant with the dignity of f gp * the government to catch or slay the IP- rascally redskins than to organize a similar raid itself upon civilized human beings in the South in behalf of perV K j tired and besotted office-seekers, who R : are not good even after they are dead. -Mr. Dallas Sanders hag been 1 <>rought into prominent notice during J the past few weeks, through his con- J jg Kef;? ncction with the political trials: and owing to the excited condition of ( F M affairs down here inach has been said 1 L of an uncomplimentary nature abont ( him. "VVe formed Mr. Sanders' ac- s quaintance during his visit to Winns- 5 ix>ro, and found him a well bred, nn assuming, pleasant young gentleman. > That he possesses ability is evident 1 from the high stand he has already ' taken.

We are sorry that the peculiar c position in which he has been placed a ^ 3ias prevented him from becoming J generally better acquainted with us, ] which would have been better for all! r parties. 11 ArroRXEr General Youmans made | * jast such a speech m the Mayesville { c ; ? case as causes one's flesh to titigle and [ y his hair to stand on end. Some of his i periods and apostrophes are not to be t wjjnfc v surpassed. He championed a noble '2 cause and felt it, and he possessed the j a uatnval gifts and t he burning eloquence j h to cover himself with glory. Mr. Mel- ; f ton's reply was ingenious andrhetori-: i cal; but it begged the question all the S way through. For whatever differ- ! y tliAt IH9V ovist }u*hrpnii /??/ ! Wmith Carolina and new South Carolina, Mr. ? Slelton is primarily responsible. flis ; a gorjre never rose at contemplation of o the bpstard regime that marked the f< transition.

' 1; Tux Greenville Newt warns the j t Democratic State Executive Commit-; r :ce at its coming meeting to devote , ] itself strictly to campaign business,!

In the < present emergency the first thought ot \ every good man should be the welfare ; of the party and the State. To even think of pushing private interests is i high treason. The issue is f*st reach- i ing the imt>ortaiice of that which con- 1 vuised the Slate in 1J$76. And selfish- 1< ness must be sternly remanded to the i background. But we have the fullest 1 confidence in the patriotism and devo- < tion of-the State Execut:ve Committee i ciwi feel assured in advance that their > " proceedings will be conducted with an i eye single to the public .velfare.

A court- of j justice may be subject to another sort j of bias, more important and pernicious, j as it reaches beyond the interest of in j dividuais and affects the whole com- j < nmnity. A judge under the influence!' of government may be honest enough !, in the decision of private causes, yet a j j traitor to the public. When u victim is marked out by the ministry, this judge will offer himself to perforin the ' sacrifice; he will not scruple to prosti- i tut* his dignity and betray the sanctity j j of his office wherever an arbitrary! point is to be carried for government, j, or the resentment of a couit to be | i gratified." i: "The principles and proceedings, |' odious and contemptible a? they are. 1j in effect are no less injudicious. A J i wise and generous people art* roused { by every appearance of oppressive, un- ( constitutional measures, whether these measures are supported only by t he , power of government or masked under < the forms of a court of justice.

The State Executive Committee has issned a stirring ad- j dress, showing the necessity of stand- < ing squarely by the parties that are s indicted for the crime of being Demo- 1 crats. We canuot add anything to ; what has been said. If any man needs j arguments to convince him of his duty i he is not alive to his own interests. ^ Good government means peace and j safety. It means liberty to pursue business operations with confidence. In all financial operations, good aud t honest government is a large portion of the capital invested. To destroy , this good government, to foist upon us j the rule of aliens, thieves and fools is < the end and aim of the Federal prose lutious. The Democrats now on trial * 3id no more and 110 less than their | 3ntv; no more and no less than was i lone by all good Democrats from every ^ section of South Carolina. An attempt s is made to swear away their charac- ^ ters and their liberty by suborned pernrers. liars hired at so much a day. ro undergo this is enough without injurring pecuniary loss. We who are j lot molested in our persons must bear r >ur share in the expenses of our rcpre- * >entatives.

The Coming Crop. I - S' The Register has published a care- n ully prepared article showing the crop c >utlook for the present year. The data h ire taken chiefly from the ^ March report of the State Asrricnltural c Department, and the deduction-* are i A nade by the Register. According to ! <*his rrticle the cereal crop for South 111 Carolina will surpass that of any pre- ! [' ious year. "We give some of the cal- j fi ulations. There will be an increased j p ield of 685,000 bushels of wheat and j 1} ',500,200 bushels of oats. Estimating ! " he yield at 10 bushels for wheat and j <r 2? bushels of oats per acre, the aver- j it ge is hardly too great, as the report for ; *( :ist year showed an average of 8 bushels j ^ i>r wheat and IS for oats. The saving ; j( n fertilizers amounts to 8,000 tons, or | li ?60,000. The repairs of fences last | sl car <-ost $9(X',0u0. This year only i ' :io'),f>00 will be required, a saving of; p S1O.O00 for these two ilems. Adding j t! gain of $2,700,000 for wheat and ' |l ats. the Register ciphers out a coin-> 1 >rtable little balance of $3,500,00 over ist year in these items. ' n Taking into consider, tion the favora- j le start made in farming operations, j ie Register predicts a crop of 1.300,- j 00 acres of corn at ten or eleven . fp nshels per acre, or a yield of 13.500,- & DO bushels of corn. This average we j fit jar is too hiifh, but we defer to the ! ? i legister in such matters. i The acreage in cotton will be pay | ai ,500,000 acres. TIjc average yield fjr 1 tf he past five years is 187 pounds per j icre, or of South Carolina for 1*7'J j .*2 pounds, or a total of 600,000 bales ! t A' 4'jO pounds each.

' tiid we trust it will t>e more than i 1 eali/.cd. We fear though the lley inter ' t ?as not taken into con>iderati<?n the ; ieeliue in prices incident to a largely ucreased yield. Hut it matters not j whether the money total equals the j I estimate, provided we secure the t\v<> i ' million bushels of wheat, the seven j nillion bu>hels o{ oats and 'he thirteen :! million bushels ot* corn promised.

The steamer Marion be- ' longs to M?* srs. Coles & Cordes ami ' vva> chartered to the United States < Liovernment for the purpose of reniov- 1 in^r obstructions from the Wateive 1 River. She was commanded by (.'apt. ; Thomas E. Rhodes, and had a crew of ' about ten persons. TiiC people in the ' section of Richland countv, in the 1 neighborhood of Hates* landing, had >ome time ago asked the captain to ' take out an excursion party for a trip 1 riown the river, and the fated 28th was ^elected as the day for the maroon.

The ' captain was standing in the stern directing the movements of the boat, and the engineer was at his post, there being eighty pounds of steam on the boilers. The explosion occurred without any warning sound, and within less than twenty minutes after the start had been made the ill-fated vessel 1 was lying wrecked upon the muddy 1 current of the swift river, with a uum- ' her of her passengers dead and wound- j * sd.

Extract from Attorney General You man's Speech. On Friday tlic 21st inst., Attorney j ieneral Youinans. in liis defense of the j tfayesville managers, made an arjru- j nent of several hours, of which the i ollowiujr is a portion: Mr. Youmans then reverting to the ! piestion of standing aside jurors by! he Government said that there were! >nly i wo American deci.-ion - which i;i , in} way justified the practice, (hie j >vas in Pennsylvania and I lie other in. he Klu-k!ux trials, while on the other I iand lie read titfc names of fully twen y Pennsylvania judges who said tiiat j hey knew of no sm-ii practice bein?r : idoptcd in misdemeanors. Continn-j nir Attorney General Youmans said: ; L wtmld be irlad to stop here, but 1: annof. The district attorney says he bii^ht a.'ainst corruption. I ha\e; u vcr heard the charge of personal c-.ir- j nption brought against him. and I ivuuld say that I disbelieved it. i'"chav?re | Lvere made. Bur. my friend canno. j !'?><e himself in this dramatic attitude ?f martyr and ask the people to forget he events of 1872. At that rime wiihn i!ie ranks of the Republican p.?rty ihore wore two factious. The *>i.e ivhich t )ii<riit and strove for borrerjrnv rnnient was nd by a man who had Ixu'ii in 5ho councils of the nation before the war. lie was if r eat in the unci is of the Confederacy. lie was ifierwads Governor of the and lie died in one of tiic most brill.aut ;apitais of Europe, in St. Petersburg, is foreign minister of the United Suites ?James L.

Moses, Jr. He was x prodigy. He reminds ns of the disjoins Emperorsof the decline and fall aft he Roman Empire. A pro-consul if the Verres type. But when the . lash came between them on which side lid the district attorney array himself? Side bv side with Moses. It was on his arm that Moses leaned, and it was ;>n his tongue that Moses relied as he made that campaign through the Stale iv hi oh resulted in temporary success, but which ultimately terminated in the low nihil of the Republican party. Jud<reBond (interrupting:,) I don't ;oe. Mr. Youtnans, what that has to do with the case. ^Mr. Melton is not on [.rial here. Mr. Melton: Let him go on, may it please your Honor. Let him go to the ?nd of his tether. He has already gon<> 'oo far. I would prefer that tic nonilnde and th?t I be allowed to answer tiiin. Mr Yonmans, continuing: When Melton and Moses spoke in Charleston St. Michael's bells, which had rejoiced with the joys and grieved with the sorrows of Charleston for centuries, were <o shocked by their harangues that ,hey refused to chime the quarters or sound the hour. The local poet of the Jay says: 'SC. Mlcnnel's chimes were mute when Melton spoke. Mid Moses paralj-z-d their brazen stroke; such shameless utterances 'neath the spire's dark shade, '? Wade the tower shudder and the clocic a'rald." vv iiuu ine cusu'iui iiuunicv a iu ;peak for the people of South Carolina :ie puts in a claim which we and all >l her people in South Carolina deny. Says a distinguished son of South Carolina, now minister to the South ! American Republics, "To love South Carolina was the creed of South Carolinians?a creed which a statesman might call nai row and a philosopher might call weak, but broad enough it was to cover them in life, and strong enough to support them in death." I And remembering that in her soil, ivhi(?h to ns is sacred?that in her bos Jin are reposing the ashes of the venerated men and pure women whose lips tind lives .Lave taught us^to love South Carolina?that bosom into which we will, when life's fitful fever is over, all creep gladly as after a long day's sport to sleep ttt her arms. 'I, the humblest of her citizens, commissioned to stand here in their defence to-day against [his unjust persecution, speak the prayer jf her sour and daughters when 1 say: Withered be the arm tha* strikes her. Uursed be the tongue that maligns her. Hated be the foe that invades her. Bnt withered! thrice withered? cure, d! thrice cursed?thrice hated be the son jf hers, native and to the manner born who would raise his slanderous tongue :o defatne her or his matricidal arm to strike her. We read in profane history that Coriolanus, who yielded to the ears of his mother, halted his victories legions beyond the yellow Tiber, jut that Nero slew his mother and then idtnired her beauty after she was a corpse, and fiddled a goodly tune when [tome was burning. We read that the >ld Patriarch who floated in the ark on he topmost wave that encircled the jlobe, after the waters subsided, be ame intoxicated, and lay uncovered vithin in his tent, and that his sons vent back and covered the nakedness )i rneir iaiuer; nut nowncre, emier m :acred or profane history, from the Pentateuch of Moses, which tolls of the )rigin of man, the tall, the deluge and he primal settlement of nations, to the 3ook of Mormon?from Sanconiathan md the records of the Chinese to Jusin McCarthy's history of our own imes, do we read the record of a man n the full possession of his faculties vho. tearing his hair, rending his robe, md calling Heaven to witness the purity >f his actions, uncovers the nakedness >f his mother, and exposes her to the >ubl?c iraze?a nvtnph of the pave?<;a loramon street-walker"?"a debauched uid bedraggled creature." As great as ire the talents of the district attorney, ic has, I fear, as has been charged igainst the great inan he lias quoted, fivet: up to party what was meant for nankiud. Mr. Melton'i Reply. At the conclusion of Col. Youman's iddress, Mr. Melton closed for the >rosecution. In the course of which te spoke as follows: And so I do not :ppeak for South Carolina!. I thought i did. But I acept the sentence. Then there are two J South Carolinas. There is one coin-1 rtftiioJiwf h&f /toroor f?)?' in fliA I uries, when the wild forests were uiirackcd provinces, aud coming down tt a career of meteoric splendor almost o this day.

I don't peak for that. For tlie other, thank iod, it is my birthright to speakj arid j r> long as God will allow my poor tamrnering tongue to .speak, it shall be j poken. 1 know that my distinguished ! iend in these cases worthily bears Mill him (he commission of the Stale, t. i* so "nominated in the bond." The (formation which you try, gentlemen, i i it< three counts charges upon the iiizens of South Carolina the violation ! f the law of the State. It so occurs j Kit by the Statute of the United State* j Kit, too, is a violation of the law of | le United States. Nevertheless the i flc'iiee charged is a violation, in each j ud every count, of the law of South j aroiina. The attorney-general ap- j ears here, geutlemen, bearing the ' gn manual ot the authority of the j ie State for what, gentlemen? To j 2lVnd citizens of South Carolina who i tve defied and violated the law of the : i tate. (iod save the mark! I do not! now whether these defendants be t' uilty or not; that is for you.

Is this his office? Why has not j the Stare, us she now stands. culled j these people to a reckoning? Whv j I does not the State make inquest of it?!; Why in his own court does not the at- j s torney-jreneral in his zeal appear arid ;' cause them to answer? Ah! ?rentie-h men. it is not tha! State I represent. j? 1 wiis the candidate for attorney-'t ijeiieral of South Carolina on the rejru- ' < lar Republican ticket in 1872, which t was In-ailed by F. J. Moses. If I had I th?*ee words with that person before i 1 (hat time I da not recollect the facts.; ' I had been judjre of a court f>>r nearly j < three years wholly removed from poii- < lies or any reai knowledge of the fact.-.; ?

He also claimed that while attorney-genera: he reduced the St.itc \ deot from twenty-six millions to six j millions, at which latter figures the! debt stood at the time of his resignation in 1876. Continuing, he said: in tiie lifting of that terrible burden I claim to have done it, Moses or no Moses. Sir months after I resigned 1 ! had one Joscphus Woodruff as a client j Sorrowful it is that I was 'bunted,*! srrapped,' 'broken,' 'gone up/ For this the press of the country has abnsed me.

Oh, now, is not that a pitiful and more hitter and disgraceful mistake which they make when they purpose that I will do violence to tiie instructions I have, and neglect to perform my duty, no matter what mar be the public excitement surrounding me. I defy it. I bow to righteous public opinion, for that is the voice of God. To nothing else will Ij bow, so help me God, save to God liimc.l F Mr. Melton, referring to what he called the present mode of conducting elections in South Carolina, said: They (the managers) go to the ballot box I wilh eves closed and conscience dead. Oh, that God with the electric fire that he sends, would touch the conscience of my people and awaken them to their j duty and to their ( a iger! And, get Clemen, it is to the loundation of outpolitical life, the political individual sense to which to which the attorneygeneral of the United Suites refers. What is the use of voting? What is the use of public opinion? What is the use of freedom of thought and action? What is the use of political discussion ? Why send tor representatives | of a party, and brimr them to the Cap?- j tol to nominate their candidate? Why j invite discussion upon me nnsungs m every communitv? Why teach your children the historv of tiie doctrines of selves, and walk henceforth and forever slaves, as you are, if these things are to continue? You are slaves, and every tuan who submits to it is a coward. It is to restore the political integrity of the community that we go back to the homes of our forefathers, searc h their teachings, and bring thein hen, and have a Republic, a land of the free I and a home of the brave, one which is a real freeman's home, and not a delusion and a snare. ET.EPHAXTIS E COURTESIES. Jumbo in Introduced to the Herd, and Set* up a Flirtation -with Mrs. Hebe?A Very Intereatluc Scene. From tli? New York Sun. After the matinee audience had leftf Kn C/iito wi ivI^m fUft sifttrkt* | uii; xuaui-tvii vy uai ut-u iijv; wiiivi : afternoon Junibo was formally intro! duced to the herd of elephants among ! which ho is to travel in the Itanium, ; Bailey fo Hutchinson show. Eighteen elephants, male and female, were ranged in a line on the hippodrome track, under control of Mr. Arstingstall, their heads fronting the rings. Jumbo was then brought out of his ( room by his keepers, Newman and Scott, and marched slowly alonjr the line. As he passed, each of the other elephants threw out its trunk and ; touched him, at the same time emitting a little grunting or puffing sound, while their little eyes were fixed upon 1 him sharply as he was within sight. ' Jumbo walked steadily, without oncc . turning his head aside, but his long : proboscis was kept 011 a roving commission of inquiry all the way long, ' touching each animal, as if exchang- ' ing salutations. Near the further end of the line i stood Chief, the largest heretofore in ! Itanium's herd. When he saw Jumbo's I huge rorm jooimng up ociore mm no : put down his head in attitude for a ' charge at him, an<l it was with diffioul- i ty thai, his hostile purpose was re- 'i strained bv the stern commands of ] Mr. Arstiiurstall and the sharp enforce- < ments of his pointed steel persuaders. 1 A second time Jumbo was marched j along1 the line and the former demon- i strations were repeated, but without < any further manifestation of ill-feeling ? on the part of Chief. Then Jumbo was allowed to stand before the middle i: : A ui uiu line wr ww liiuiurcn, uuimg which time the probosces of all tlic ' others were pointed toward him and he waved his trunk at thera all, as if they were exchanging some sort of pantomimic discourse upon the situation. Hebe, the mother of the first baby elephant ever born in captivity, seemed I to attract his fancy, and for some time . thev carried on together a little iuno- ' cent flirtation, exchanging kisses by placing the ends of their probosces to each other's mouths, and lrom time to time caressing each other with their trunks by a series of light taps and touches. Then Jumbo \v:is without < any difficulty driven back to his room, and tlie other elephants were trotted 1 oil' to their quarters. 1 mM rnrm q Tiik Rich Max's Bonks.?The stealing of a human body is not solitary, a though not common, but the stealing oi' a rich man's body never was commenced till Stewart's was taken from c the grave, and while a reward was per-! haps the motive, it has been said that j I a kind rich man never woul.l have had j t his bones so profaned.

A Steamer Burned. ?The steamer "f.-ity of ijanford"' was burned tive miles from Jacksonville about four o'clock on Monday morning. The steamer was on her way Irom San ford. When opposite Point La Vista lire was discovered issuing f?*oin the forward hold from among a quantity of pine wood. The alarm was given and the purser went through the boat and aronsed the people.

An attempt was made to rescue the passengers by having them go aft and jump overboard, but notwithstanding these efforts nine persons, and probably more, perished. Their names are as follows: Mrs. Ocar Ker and child, of .Jacksonville; Mrs. Ireland and daughter, of Coma, Mississippi; G. H.

Some of the bodies were burned to a crisp. The city is full of mourners, and considerable excitement prevails. The steamer and contents are a total lose; nothing was saved. ? Hon. A. II.
