The E?emocratic caucus resolved j

Sp same dilatorv tactics with which the

c'-'
filibustering; but it is hardly possible
that the Republicans can succeed in

would be much wiser in them to have
a reheariug at once, and then secure a j

But Colonel Thompson has

South Carolinian drinks lemonade and

Hampton said, the other day, that
Tillman would have a walk-over if he
ran. Tillman himself prefers Congress.
1 understand that the Charlesj
tonians want General Hampton to be
Governor and General Conner Senator."
The News and Courier's Washington

will not rnn for Governor. We
believe that nobody will have a walkover
for the nomination.
Egypt is on the brink of a revolu- j
tion. The Khedive has for some time j
been ruler only in name, the finances j
of the Empire being under the control I
of two commissioners appointed respectively
by Great Britain and France.
The army tinder Araby Bey has succeeded
to a great extent also in overshadowing
the remnant of the government
over which the Khedive nominally
presides. Araby has seen fit to
call a meeting of the Notables, or Par-:
liainent, without the consent of the
Khedive. A few davs ago matters j
looked unfavorable to the latter. But!
news comes that the Bedouin Arabs,
who inhabit the desert and look with
scorn upon the servile Egyptians, have
seen fit to espouse the cause of the
Khedive, and they threaten to diop
Araby's head in a basket if he pursues
his revolutionary schemes. The British
and French governments have
despatched fleets to Alexandria, so
that just now* the Khedive is master of j
the situation. Should a revolution |

it is uncertain how far its influence
uiav be felt. Spain and the other
powers are determined that France
and England shall not absorb Egypt
and the Suez Canal. Italy wishes
Tripoli and Spain desires Morocco, j
while Bismarck lias no intention of i
standing off when a row is in prospect.
Russia is more than willing to finish
her job of carving up Turkey; and the
Herzegovinian principalities chafe under
the domination of Austria. Araby j
Bey and the Bedouins are jnst now
playing with fire at the end of a fuse
leading to a magazine cha^^'^wlt&
dynamite, <ria:it^op^MJer^guii cotton !
and every ottw^rfiabolical explosive.
When^jp^crash comes, Araby and
^tfpTOeswill be mincemeat; bat their
work wil! involve far greater ruin.
In some quarters it is urjjed that t! e !
Legislature at its special session should
not only redistrict the Sta:e, but should
aUo make a different arrangement of
counties. The change in county lines
should be made cautiously and deliberately;
and an extra session is
hardly the proper time to undertake
the task. The Legislature can submit to
die people a constitutional amendment
diminishing the required area of the
counties; ana wnen this is passed the
divisions may be made without endangering
the internal arrangement of
county affairs.
It is not necessary in redisricting
the State, to confine the districts to
county lines. Nothing is more common
in other States than to attach a
part of a county to one district and
the rest of it to another, and the
adoption of a registration law, confining
voters to their respective precincts,
renders this measure feasible in South
Carolina.
A much more simple registration
law than the one fast passed could
have been devised. It would have
been merely necessary to order the;
supervisor to take the names of the j
taxpayers from the auditors' books, j
and group them into certain precincts, j
publishing a notice that the voters of|
certain townships should vote at cer-;
tain precincts; and providing that all
lejral voters, who are excused from j
poll tax by reason of disability or otii-!
er cause, may appear in person before
the supervisor tor enrolment ami

ness of farmers to leave their work at j

would have been secured equally asj
well as by the present arrangement. j
Tiie Blue Ridge Scrip.
After a retirement of many years the '
ghost of the Bine Ridge has been i
trotted out again by a decision of;
Judge Bond in the Circuit Court, j
:iffirnnn<r the validity of about SI,800.-1
OW worth of Clue Ridire Scrip, which i
was issued by Radicals and repudiated j
by them, and has been declared un- j
constitutional by our State Courts, j
The hist on* of the Scrip, briefly told, |
is as follows: The State was ajruaran- j
tor of the Blue IJid<re Railroads for j
>everal million dollars of bonds, pio-i
vided the bends were sold at par.;
Thev never reached this limit: and as!
the Radicals desired a fat job, they ;
passed an act consolidating the Bine
Kidjre and Greenville IJoads, and rescinding
tlie proviso requiring a sale at
par. The roads never consolidated. [
Then the bonds were called in and i
revenue bond scrip was issued instead,
made receivable for taxes. As before ;
said, the scrip was repudiated years j
ago. Judge Bond revives if and orders .
the proper officers to levy a tax to j
pay it ofF. An appeal w:;l, of course, j
betaken to the United Siaies Supreme j
Court, where a final decision will be j
m~de.
The people are in no frame of mind j
to incur a liability of near two millions j
of dollars, especially as it is a relic of
Radicalism. The attorneys of 1 lie
State hold that the State was never |
bound for the original issue of b .nds
els the proviso was never observed, ai.d
they chum that the issuance of thisj
: Scrip was a vast robbery. One or tv. o
I gullible Northern capitalists were i
caught by it and advanced money on j
th?* faith of ?crip. It may be that the I
State is liahie tor a portion of the j
money thus actually advanced: hut
not for the whole amount of the Scrip.
As the State officials have been j
solemnly forbidden ever to levy a tax ]
; for payment of ihis Scrip we imagine '
j it will he a difficult matter to put i
j Judge Kond's decision into practice,
! even if endorsed bv the United States j
Supreme Court.
? ?
Kegistratioa.
Some thoughtless persons decline to
register on the ground that they don't
I inti'iid to "carry passes." This is ab
surd. Registration laws exist in almost
every State, and in adopting our i
1 law the Legislature was only acting in j
i accordance with the mandates of the |
constitution. Registration is designed;
to prevent fraud, not to encourage it, ;
bv taking the precautions of deliber- :
I ately inquiring into every man's right j
| to vote, at a time when the question :
; can be settled after full evidence.
Under the old law a person during the
; hurry and bustle of election presents
I himself to vote. He is challenged,!
= !
and the managers have no time to sift!
the evidence, but. are compelled in a
few minutes at most to admit or reject
hirn.. An erroneous decision works
harm. Many other persons in the
con fusion, slip up to the polls and
deposit their vote without challenge,
wiien tnev may be cither minors or j
repeaters. In nil these cases fraud j
triumphs over right and justice, and |
the honest lejral voters arc put to a j
serious, disadvantage. The Kegistration
Law provides that all these ques-1
! tions shall he settled in advance, and j
the registration certificate is nothing j
more nor less than a statement that i
this has been done. N?> voter can be!
put to vexatious delays at the polls by j
frivolous challenges when he shows i
his certificate. X ?,ie<ral voter eait j
slip through ur . 1. That is a 11 Why
an honest ia\ u 'tizen should
object to this S?'""!? . against fraud
we cannot iuiajr. It would be just
as reasonable to decline to take a tax
receipt, or a jury certificate, or to show
a ticket to the conductor on a railway.
The objectors are also illogical, j
They contend that the intention of the
law is to hinder them from voting;
and then instead of taking every precaution
to frustrate tlrs alleged attempt.
they deliberately disfranchise
themselves, thus doing just what they
claim that their opponents are trying
to make them do. Where is the reason j
in this? The Radicals are much i
s!jrew<ler. They are registering persistently
and earnestly, early and lute,
and would register often and everywhere
if they couhi.
All this uilk about the registration j
law is fud?re. It is designed to secure !
a correct list of authorized voters, and J
to cut off those who begin depositing!
their ballots at eighteen or nineteen j
years, and take the whole round of the j
county. It is not directed against the j
honest but against the dishonest, and j
he is unwise as well as unpatriotic j

D1?PAKT3IEST OF AGRICULTURE. J
Colonel Eving Objects to Forming a Parti 1
sail liurrau.
During the live minutes debate on I
the bill to enlarge the Airrirultural
I'llii info n full fledyed (lonnr:mont 1
and make its chief a cabinet (-fliccr. !
Coni: re^suian Kvins spoke as follows: ^
I desired. Mi'. Speaker, sonic lime ^
during this debate, to express u.y j
views upon this important question and j
to state my objections to this bill.'
Under the rules ofthe H.m?e, lnnvev- j .
er, I could not obtain an opportunity \ \
to do so: and in the short time allow- : j
ed me now I cannot undertake.even in ; <
tlie most cursory way, to go over the j'
ground I intended.
I agree. Mr. Speaker, entirely with i j
the remarks of my distinguished triend j (
from A'abamn [Mr. Herbert] and of I ,
the genlleuian from Indi:iu;i. [Mr. .
lirowne.] I represent a e.oiistiluein v
nine-tenths of whom are devoted to I.
agriculture, miu! if I stood here simply j
to recommend myseit to tht? lavor ot {
my consti uents I mi^ht remain silent ,
and vote for this bill. But it is be- ,
cause I believe that no more serious J
blow could be struck at the ajrrieultur- i
al interests of the country than will ]
tall upon them bv the enactment of that (
bill into law that i feel eompclied even (
within the five minutes allowed me Li> j
enter my protest against it.
I am opposed to it, in the first place, |
because it seeks to turn over the vast (
and important-interests of twenty mil- {
lions ot" our people to a scheming politician
to be manipulated by liitn for j
seinsii ana parry e;.os.
It* the jrtntlemen earnestly seek as j
thev declare, the welfare of the fanners .
of the country, why should they insist
011 making the department a political ]
machine by converting the eommis- j
sioner into a politician .arid partisan?
As a ( abinet officer lie will carry j
with him nil the great interests com- ~
mitted to his charge into tiie muddy j
whirlpool of politics. lie will possess
great power for working mischief, and j
I fear will exercise little of it for good. .
With agents and correspondents in ,
every S ate, he will keep the political
pot boiling, whether the farmer has '
any thing to boil in his or not. The
department or bureau, whichever if ?
may be, ought-to be entirely divorced j
from politics, and noise of its offices .
should constitute towards for p*u :y
services. I! any fanner is deceived by
thism -' ailed effort to "dignify a?rricui- |
fure'? he will find. I fear, when it n.av
be too late, that a de-ire to capture the .
"Granger vote'' had more to do with
the passage oft he bill than any real '
desire to advance his welf:;r<>.
If the design of the bill is to promo'e
agricultural interests if would seem, in 1
the first pla<-e. we ought to iiave at the ^
head of the depart menr one distinguished
for his agricultural know ledge and |!
skill, one who is devoted to agricultur-1 i
al science and has no ambition to shine j 1
in the political world.
lie should be maintained in office for J *
a Penes! 01 year?, so mat me country ;
might have the benefit of those vast !
stores of information which can he
gathered alone by experience and pa- ^
tient industry. |
If it were possible to have the office | ,
filled by such a man we might then j *
hope to see some of the good results j(
which the friends of this hill claim nil. I
flow from its adoption. But no such j J
man is wanted.and none snch need sip- .
ply. A first requisi e wouldbe ;irecord >f j .
distinguished services rendered the |
party in power, and influence and j
ability to manage the politics of whole !
States. The duties expected of him by
his chief would require little kisowl- v
edge of fanning. of sheep husbandry, j"
or the di-eases of domestic animals, i '
lie would uc expeeieu io ruKe cure <>14.7
the Grangers politically.
I ajrree entirely wi:h my distinguished
friend from Indiana tiiaf rti'ere is |
no necessity for such a bit! as this. I
The present machinery of the Agricni- ! s
tnral Bureau is all that is necessary:;
and I am willing to give the Cominis- i
s;oner all the money he needs to make
itjEprk ?llloiently. If 1 were in fivor (
of making any change at all it would N
be in the direction of jrivh>? the Com- j c.

and to confer with him in regard to i

I would have one member of this 1

me to develop my ideas in reference 1o
how tiiis agricultural bureau should l>e

jeetiou which 1 have to ur^e against 11
this bill, and one upon which I >hou!d .
have been glad to have spoken at '
length, is its increase of the already J;

rlovr Jesse Cannon was l)ravrn as a Juror
iu the United Slates Court, and How the
Wrong: Jesse Got There.
, Fnun the Grerrivl'ie Dally i
Several esteemed e-i temporaries have
much to say of Jos-e Cannon, white
lU'yman from this county iu ilie dec- j
:iwn trials. The Enterprise and Jlounauieer
publishes Mr ('auno?>*s cmpiial- !
c denial of the Maiem em I hat iie had
jver voied lor eo!ivii:;ion. Th<* JS"ttrs
i/id Courier states that he voted for
u-ijuittal, but would have weakened
mil voted tor convict ion had! it not
>een for the stalwart ism of juryman
Molony. riie Barnwell Sentinel, pubi>hed
in Air. Molony's home, stated
list after lie went home on a visit that
t had the best authority for stating
hat three jurymen hail held out steadily
for acquittal throughout, that authority
heinir presumably Mr. Molony
?whose name, by the way, our eseetned
at Charleston renders "Malony"
?liitns-elt*. The Daily Netz.s has niainained
ail the time tii.it Mr. Cannon
a* as sta:wart and would ?tiek to the
last. That .statement was apparently
reluted i?y the readiness with which
ie was accepted by the pro.-cciition? a
readiness which dazzled the Netcs and
Courier into the belief and assertion
:hat Mr. Cannon was a "white Republican."
The facts are that the Jesse Cannon
LHisiaess is pruuauiy a coiueuv ui iui:?natc
errors, the Iutigh bein?r against
awyer Melton. On the 2lst of March
Jesse Cannon was before Commission?r
Hawthorne for bein^ a retail liquor
Jealer without having paid the special
lic?nse. The case was very cle^ir, and
Jannoii was bound over iu $200 to ai?:>ear
for trial iu August. .The report
>f the case was, as ususil, -sent to the
District Attorney, Mr. .Melton, 1111nediately.
When along in April more
tiroes were needed bv 3ft*. Melton,"the
name or tne man wno^Aioeruy im jkjiu
ii his hands, very turned
ip the jury box. It mayS>e remarked
nciden tally, that it is q fleer, that of
:iiree white men drawn as Uuited
States jurors in this county, two names
jjiould have l?een those of known Republicans,
while the third appears on
he criminal Calendar of the United
States Court. It will be remarked, not
Incidentally, as bein^ likewise queer
hat Jesse Cannon was about the only
white Democrat not challenged or
stood aside by the prosecution. The
ilacritv with which he was accepted,
laturally evoked inquiry. Whoever
ias the patience to read this will
jrobablv have his curiosit\ satisfied.
It is a melancholy tact, for the prosecution,
which may he still puzzling
>ver the obstinacy of the prisoner ju or.
rhat there are two Jesse Cannons
n this immediate neighborhood. One
it'rhcm is black and lives in the mounains.
The other is white, and tine
due, ami lives at Greer's. Mr. Melon's
summons went to the wrong
Jose Cannon, from a Melton point of
,'iew. The result has been that one of
lie siraightes-t Democrats in Greenvile
;ouuty was sent for by the Governuent
and his expenses paid bv the
Jovt'rnment, was placed on the jury
vith jov and contidence bv lawver
Mellon, was looked <-n gloomily and
>bliquely by the Democrats ami uninenlionailv
slandered as a "white lleuibiican"
by our esteemed Charleston
otemporury, and quietly camped in
he jury room where lie would be now
f necessary to prevent a conviction in
ne ease he was on.
We do not know whether Mr. Canioii
had the subject of hi* supposed
li III're nee with our paternal Uncle
vim mentioned to liirn. . It was probacy
thought unnecessary. He was in
rouble with the revenue laws before
lie amnesty, and it wasaiair presumpiou
ths'-r he would see which side his
read was buttered on ana not offend
he District Attorney by undue eon
cieniiousiicss with a record of old
: t-es and clear proof on a new one
#ain.>t him.
Let the facts be understood: On the
>ri<rinal panel, of the live thousand
vhite men in (ireenville two Kepuli:.m
and no Democratic jgrora were
Irawn. The "record ofthe^pfeliminary
xainination and binding over of Jesse
x'annon was sent to the District Attortey
before the first of April, with noth
mr in u :o indicate mat ne was nor me
vhite Jesse Cannon wlu hart been an
.lleged olfnider before the amnesty,
n (tie supplementary panel drawn in
V.i>ri! the third while juror: from this
; unity was drawn, and he was Jcs>e
,'aniion. Jesse Cannon was the only
vhite Democratic juror not objected to
u* stood aside by the government. A
iadica) attache of the Court tauntingv
whispered when Mr. Cannon was
ut on the jury that lie wassail right."
Could you not pick a jury to convict j
ny other man of jury box stuffing and
ttenipting to corruptly influencejur\110:1
on this evidence. Mr. Melton?
We could proceed and indulge in
laiTowing remarks about this Cannoir
hat was thouifht to be s > well loaded

ftim jijujw uii|y>v?4^uii(, cuu\nents
touching the virtue of a name.
Jut wo scorn to add to the afflictions
i. laudable ambition defeated by unore-een
accidents. Nobody could calulate
on there being two jesse Canions
in one county and both on the
'nitcd States Commissioners' books
vi111 the odds in favor of gelling the
irongone; and there is humor enough
n the naked story.
Mr. Melton will probably obey the
lead-line injunction of the Edgefield
ifjf.erti.ter and ''Remember the name
Jesse Cannon": and when the real
esse ?;orues up for trial in August,
nay Heaven pity him!
Took the Ciiaxck.?Traveling into
own about dusk, Mr. Hendricks had
iccasiou to calf at the mansion of an
sicemed friend, who had, among orhr
worldly possessions, two or three
vry line daughters He had scarcely
;nocked at the door when it was open:d
by one of those blooming maidens,
vho, as quick as thought, threw her
nns around his neck, and before he
iad time to say, ''Oh don't!" pressed
iur warm, delicate lips to his, and gave
lim as sweet a kiss as ever swain deired
or deserved. In utter astuiisi*
iient. the worthy gentleman was enleavorini/
to stammer out somcihimr.
vhcn the damsel exclaimed:
"Oh, mercy, mercy! Mr. Hendricks.
; this you? I thought it was ny

"l'shaw!" thought the gentleman to
limsdf. "You didn't think any smh
liing." Bur, taking1 her hand, lie said,
ti u forgiving tone: "There's no harm
one; don't give yourself any uneasies<.
though yon ought to be a little
iiore c.ue!ui."
Al'fcr this gentle reproof, he was
slurred in the parlor by the maiden,

Vhen he rose to depart it fell to her to j
rait upon him to the door; ami it may *
>e added that they there held discourse
:>gether tor some minutes. As the ! I
warmhearted youth plodded home I

"Miss Allen knew it was I who'

he love a husband? For, by the great
quash, I never felt such a ki>s in mv
