Lawyer Reed wants the Govern
ment to pay him five thousand dollars
for his defense of Gniteau.
The Atlanta Constitution says there
is no truth in the charges of defalcation,
made against General Longstreet.
The extra cost of steel rails used in
the country because of the protective
tariff has been, say, 840,000,000 a year
for the la?t three years. This has been
a great hardship to railroads and incidentally
to merchants who use them.

Relatives of Miss Sarah Burr, in

she left all her property to the

The beneficiaries,of her charity think
the old lady had a sound and disposing

The hard money of the country has
now reached the enormous volume of
$718,800,000, of which $512,000,000 is
of gold. On this solid basis, aud other
elements of national credit, about
$825,000,000 in paper money is sustained
at par, and $119,000,000 of silver
dollars intrinsically worth fifteen
per cent. less. This is a happy change
from the time when our coin was invisible,
when our paper was worth
less than half its face, and our only
"change" was shinplasters.

General Longstreet, it appears,
while helping Emory Speer over in
Georgia, has got his official accounts a
little mixed. A "Washington special
to the New Orleans Times-Demacrai
says:
The accounting officer sent to Georgia to
examine the Marshal's accounts, found a
state of affairs that was far from creditable.
The accounts showed that a good
deal of money had been spent, but there
was a woful lack of vouchers, The De~
partment liere refuses to pass the accounts
unless vouchers are furnished or satisfactory
explanation made. Thus far the Marshal,
it seems, has not been able to furnish
explanations or vouchors. There seems to
be no suspicion of crookedness on the Marshal's
part, but the acts of some of his
deputies, it is said, do not bear the closest
|f scrutiny.

It is reported in Richmond that

name has been spoken of in connection
with the presidency of the Danville

except the Senator's own set, paid any
attention to it. The circumstances

The habit of smoking among school j

! of the death of Thurlow "Weed:
During the course of his remarks at the

and journalist, is on the way to
its sepulchre near the scene of his great
editorial and political achievements. The
whole land is deferential, although the
characteristic of our time is the condemnation
of political bosses, of which Thurlow
Weed was the chief. lie was never Senator
or President, but he made and unmade
Senato and Presidents. During his prime

men. Had his obsequies taken place thirty
years ago the benedictions would have been
equalled by the maledictions. Henry Clay
first loved him almost to idolatry, but afteriliim

dignation. In management of men Mr.
Weed was a giant. Unlike some of the
political bosses of later times he kept his
power by suavity while they lost theirs by
arrogance. He belonged to the race of
editorial monarchs. There are too many
independent newspapers now to make the
age for bosses paradisical. YCc liavesmali
bosses for many years i:i all our cities and

THE GOVERNOR'S MESSAGE.
On Wednesday last Governor Ilagood
submitted to the Legislature his
annual message. It is a simple, business-like
paper, giving fuliv and at the [
same time succinctly a statement of!
the condition of the different depart
tnents and institutions of the State, j
We regret that we have not space to
publish it entire, and must content
ourselves with a synopsis.
Beginning with the public debt, we
find it, funded and to be funded, $6,571,825?being
a decrease of $70,496 on |
the amount reported last year, brought
about under the operations of the j
i Sinking Fund Commission. Of the '
! public debt, the scrip of the Agricul|
tural Colleges, amounting to 8101,800,
i is a permanent investment; the deficiency
bonds and stocks, amounting
I to ?501,922, mature in 1888; and conj
sois, amounting to $5,878,083, mature j
j in 1893. The whole debt bears inter|
est at 6 per cent. This is promptly
! mot as it accrues, and is paid in Co- i
lumbia, Charleston and New York. '
The State securities sell above par. |
There is no floating indebtedness, cur- j

and there ie :i balance of $98,017 in I lie :
treasury, awaiting the disposition of.
the Legislature,
The revenues of the State for current |
expenditures, arc derived from the net !
earnings of the penitentiary, from the:
phosphate royally and from the gencr-1
al tax. The penitentiary paid into the i
treasury last year $-10,900. The phos- |
phate royaity is steadily increasing: ,
during the past year it amounted to
$138,254, being an increase of over
?17,000 upon the preceding year. In [
order to dispense with the expedient'
of borrow.^jg money, in advance of the !
Mil iiiv j/uuiu; uatuij vvTvmvi |
ircsts mat the first scmi-annnttf pav-;
:nent of taxes be. made compulsory,;
and that $100,000 additional be raised !
?involving a State tax for next vear I
of 4 4-10 mills. The levy for last year j
was 45 mills.
In the penitentiary there were, on
the 1st of November, 824 convicts,
against 690 at the same time last year.
Of the former number 778 were colored
and 4<> white. There were 224 leased
upon phosphate work, 121 upon rail- j
roads and 2o on the Seogers farm; the j
rcinu" .')ftr working within the walls of
the iiisii'ui'on. After the payment ofj
all the ex. uses for the past fiscal year, j
there remained i" the hands of the |
Superintendent the handsome sum of j
814,901. Tliere was of course no ap- j
propriation by the Legislature. j
The lunatic asylum contains 330 |
white and 220 colored patients. Of j
these 525 are supported by the State and !

their own means. The Governor suggests
that some plan be devised to decrease
the number of beneficiary inmates,
and to receive pay from those
who do not actually need the bounty
of the State. The appropriation asked j
for the coining vcarjis $114,192. The
institution has been admirably managed.
The Department of Agriculture con- i
| tinuos to do a good work. The tax on
fertilizers, collected through this department,
realized for the last fiscal
year 823,704. The bureau of immigration
has been in successful operation,
and the Governor thinks that increased
facilities and inducements should be
offered to bring immigrants here.
C)!! the subject ot education the Governor
makes the following interesting
I statement:
The repoit of the State superintendent of
education shows a gratifying improvement
in the public school system. During the
last year there were in attendance upon
the public schools 65,393 white and 80,575
colored pupils, making a total of 1-15,L<74.
This is the largest number of pupils ever
enrolled in the public schools of this State
in any one year. The average length of
the school session was four months?a
slight increase over the sessions previously
reported. The number of teachers, employed
was?white 2,123; colored 1,287;
total 3,213?beinsr an increase since the last
report of 1C4. The numb&r of schools was
3,183?an increase of 126. The school fund j
has steadily increased since the adoption
of the amendment to the Constitution rela
tive to the public school tax. The fund for
the fiscal year 1881-82, the last year for
which full returns have been made, was j
C>132,%5 44?this amount being the largest j
evor available in one ve3r for the support j
of public schools in this State. The public
school f;?:id is now almost free of debt,
The amount of the claims outstanding
against the school fund in October, 1877,
was $*290,940 60. In nearly all the counties
this debt has been liquidated.
The State Military Academy has
opened with very flattering prospects.
There are 177 cadets, of whom sixtyeight
are beneficiaries. To keep up
this number will require $20,400, and
a small appropriation will be needed
for the purchase of arms and accoutre- j
ments. A claim against the United
x _ l\ il.n
Males government n>r mu rem ui mu j
Citadel buildings is now pending, \dth j
a good chance of early and favorable |
adjustment. *
The South Carolina College opened!
: *
; ' ' - / : with
good prospects?there being now
148 students in attendance. Speaking
of the agricultural feature of the institution,
Governor Hagood suggests
that it should be so developed as to aid
materially in building up the agricultural
interests of the State. Not only
should the opportunity be given to the
rising generation of farmers to acquire
the scientific principles upon which
their calling is based, but the farmers
themselves should have the benefits of
tests and experiments made under the
auspices of tho institution. To this
end the College will hereafter make
analyses, researches and practical tests
required by the bureau of agriculture,
and the results will be given to the j
public In the occasional bulletins of |
the commissioner of agriculture. The [
report of the professor of agriculture I
will also be made a part of the annual !
report of the bureau. The trustees of j
the College will ask the continuance of
the appropriation of ?12,500.
The institution for the deaf and
dumb and the blind is in successful j
operation, with sixty-two pupils in i
attendance.
On the snhjcct of railroads, after re? I
ferring to the report of Commissioner j
Bonhaiu, the Governor says:
Several important new railroads have
been projected and considerable progress
lias been made towards the construction of
them. The Edgefield, Trenton and Aiken
Railroad Company and the Atlantic and
French Broad have been consolidated with
certain North Carolina, Tennessee and
Kentucky roads, whose objective point at
present; is Lexington, Kentucky, under the
style of the Carolina, Cumberland Gap and
Chicago Railroad Company. The organization
has been perfected and a comtract
has been entered into for rapidly pushing
the construction. Fifty odd miles of the
road have already been graded in South
Carolina. When completed it will be much
the shortest line from the northwestern
trade centres to the Soouth Atlantic, and
must prove of incalculable value to the j
State. It will realize the dream of lift}'
years ago?the direct and independent connection
of our commercial metropolis with
the Ohio Valley. Some grading has been
done on the Savannah Valley Railroad
from Anderson towards Dorn's Mine on
the Augusta and Knoxville Road. On the
Spartanburg, Laurens and Greenwood
Road the grading is being pushed forward;
and 011 the Georgetown and Lane's Road,
running from Georgetown to Lane's on the
Northeastern Railroad, work has recently
been commenced.
The organized militia consists of
eighty-one companies of State Volunteer
troops, (white,) numbering 4,:J76 j
men, ami twenty companies of Nation-1
ol c:n?iivl frvilmvrl ^ nnmherinsr 1.185 I
men; aggregate 5,561. The adjutant
and r.ispector-gcncral reports the general
condition of the militia, to be in
every, respect better than whon he inspected
them in 1881.
During the year the Governor lias
granted fifteen pardons and ten .?ou)mutationsof
sentence.
The message concludes as follows:
The history of the State for the last quarter
of a century has been varied by strongly
contrasting periods. Just preceding the
civil war, in social and material development
we reached the highest point which
had marked our progress since the English
colony landed upon, the banks of the Ashley.
The war followed with its heroic
efforts?its disastrous results. Of the
accumulation of two centuries of industry,
wherever it had found investment in personal
property, there remained the ashes.
The land alone was left, encumbered with
debt, and with the capital to work it only
to be obtained at usurious rates. Then
came the first period of Reconstruction; the
painful struggle fcu?%reft4-;- thegove.rrr.iiewW
of fryTts baser elements: society
slowly adapting itself to its changed cor.di
tious, and the native energies of the white
man's blood., under riotous misrule, stubbornly
winning its way to competence and |
power. In 137'i this unhappy period ended,
and to-day reconstruction is done.
Thv. exhibit laid before you of the affairs
of the State is that of a well-ordered,
smooth-working and economic government, i
and of a happy and prosperous people.
THOSE "DESECRATED" GJtJrVES.
Messrs. Editors: Please publish the
following statement of facts in refer
once to the ''desecration7' of Kcvolii-1
tionary soldiers' graves referred to by j
"Cassandra'' in your issue of the 28th j
ultimo.
A few days since I sent a man to the
place where these graves are, with
instructions to cut do'* : the bushes,
vines, etc., that had grown up around
them, to remove tho rubbish that had
accumulated there, and to pile the rock
scattered around in one placc. This
man, ignorant of the fact that there
were more graves there than the one j
with the marble headstone, pulled J
down what, in one placo. he thought j
was the foundation of ah old chimney,!
and in another place only a pile of|
rock. As soon as I learned what had '
been done (and I did not know it until j
i reau "uassamini's article;, 1 instructed
the man to replace at once
what he had torn down. This has
'since been done.
If "Cassandra," upon discovering
this apparent desecration, had called
upon me for an explanation, it would
have been as little as lie could have
done, and far less trouble than writing
a communication to your paper.
Most respectfully,
T. II. Ketchix.

hou.-e, but it was generally voted an i
innovation, and a? the inauguration is ]
a matter of business and not an idle ]
pageant, t tie Slate House is the proper j
place for it. Lieutenant-Governor
Kennedy is presiding in the Senate
until Mr. Sheppard qualifies. The '
committers of the Senate and House '
are said to give general satisfaction. 1
A full list appeared in the JVe/rs and '<
Courier of Saturday. Col. George
Johnstone retains the chairmanship of
the committee of ways and means,
Mr. Murra\ that of the committee on
privileges and elections, and Mr.
Simonton is chairman of the judiciary 1
committee. Mr. McMasler's faithful
service in the'iast Legislature is recognized
by his appointment as chairman
of the committee on commerce and
manufactures. Messrs. MoMeekiti and
Douglass have yet to win their spurs,
but I have uo hesitation in predicting
that ere the close of the session they
will be recognized as among the most
useful members of the Hou-e. Senator
Gaillard is chairman of the committee
on Federal relations, and is on
several other, committee.*, it is no
news to say that he is regarded as one
of the best*men in the Senate.
The election law seems to have stood
the test of experiment to the satisfaction
of every one, and no complaints
are hoard of it this year. The lence
law also, so far as I can learn, will
remain unchanged. Next week, however,
1 can speak much more positively,
as events will have by that time
begrinTo slnJtp-e themselves.

MILLO MAIZE.
The .Experience of Different Planters with
that Remarkable Grain.
[From tjte Newberry Ker.ild.
Three weeks ago we gave a description
of a new grain that is being cultivated
by Mr. Champion of this county.
Thj^followihg notice of tiie same grain
*rs taken from the Southern Lumberman:
"The Rev. H. B. Pratt, of South
Carolina, who was for some time a
missionary in South America, has presented
to the public a new cereal, which
he calls rnillo maize. It is found in
Colombia in large quantities, and forms
the common l'ood of tlie working
classes there, and is also used for working
animals. Mr. Pratt has been successfully
growing it in South Carolina
for several jears The cakes made
from it, ground into meal, are preferred
to corn-meal bread. The Savannah
Guano Company's chemist- pronounces
it superior in ftrnd qualities to
wheat. Experiments show that from
fifty to one hundred bushels of clean
seed per acre can be raised. Mr. Pratt
describes the plant as follows: 'The
plant is allied to the sorghum and
Guinea corn families, and 9hould not
be planted where thore is any danger
of mixing them. The grain J'4 smaller
and more mealy than the Guinea corn,
the heads are larger and more compact,
and the color is milk white instead of
rod. It differs from the sorghum in
this, that the sugar it contains is tally
converted into corn when the grain
matures?so that the pith of the given
stalks becomes as dry and tasteless a>
that of Indian corn when the stalk is
dead. In Barranquilla, on the coast,
where vre have a dry season (which i<
really a drought) of five or six inrmths'
* ' t i
conunuuncc, iui'.'.e uau it mu nut hi
rny garden, and after it h id ripened
one crop of seed, I have cut it down
to the roots, in the midst of this dry
season, and had a second crop, of inferior
quality of course, to shoot up at
once from the roots. I have bee;i told
that a third crop of fully ripened seed
can thus be made from a single plant.
I do not know what this can imply
(for the soil at that season gets drv as
a potsherd and nearly as hard) unless
it means that above most other plants
this lives orF the atmosphere, which
there certainly is densely charged with
moisture from the sea. It was this
unlimited capacity to stand drought
which induced me to bring the seed
home, In the belief that It would be of
incalculable service to our Southern
Slates, where our crops so of'en fail
from drought.'"
? ^ T Wnn/?s ori*f?r>nVi}ii?lr <\an?i(7atii
for Congress in Kauris, has served a
noticc of an application for an injunction
to restrain the State board of canvassers
from granting a certificate of
election to Judge Peters, on the ground
that the Stale constitution forbids a
judge to hold any other ogioe during
the term for which he is elected. For
this reason Mr. Woods claim* that the
votes cast fbr Judge Peters &re void.
He was elected by over 12,01)0 majority.
? Mr. James G. Wheeler, a tenant
on Mr. J. li. "Welsh's plantation in
Flnt ('reek township. Lancaster county,
planted this year sixteen aeres of
cotton and twelve acres of corn. lie
worked it with one mule and had no
assistance in the cultivation of it but
ins wile. tic *rauieiea sixteen oaies 01
cotton and seven hundred bushels of
corn.

TiieLiqi-ok Question*.?Major Hamilton
has instituted certain proceedings
to test the constitutionality of the
Statute prohibiting the sale of liquor
in this town. Ue brings up the question
in this way: What is known as
the "local option" law. provides that '
npon the petition of a specified number B
?t" nitizpns in iiv fmvu. the council of I
such town shail submit to a popular
rote the question of license or no
license, except in those towns where
the granting1 ol'license is prohibited by
law. Chester being a town of the la>t
named character, the council is withr>ut
power to submit tlie question of
license or 110 license to the people.
Nevertheless, such a petition as abovenamed
has been signed and presented
to the town council, and the council
lias propevlv declined to grant the t
prayer of the petitioners. Whereupon,
at the instance ot" Major Ham lfon, s
representing the petitioners, the S11nrenm
Court h:i> issued a writ of TlKtn- $
damns to tiic council demanding to ,
know why they should not be compelled
to grant prayer to the petition
ers by submitting the question of
license to a popular vote. The council
answer by Major Meljurc and Mr.
Brice, setting up the statute which [
prohibits them from granting the pe;ition.
this being a town where the sale
of liquor is prohibited by law. To
this Major Hamilton replies that the
law prohibiting the sale of liquor hero
is unconstitutional, and therefore void.
It is cause for congratulation that this
vexed question is submitted to the
highest judicial tribunal in iho State
for decision. Without doubt the constitutionality
of the prohibition law is
not clear as well to those in favor of its
spirit as to those opposed to its policy.
When the matter has been passed upon
bv a tribunal of 1 iirh character and
unquestioned .ability, we have no doubt
but the entire community will yield to
the reason of the decision, as they will
be bound to do to the letter of it,?

?A most unforsuuato shooting scrape
occurred in the Clay Hill section of
York count} on Sunday evening last,
in which a colored man named [tufas
Warren was killed and another colored
man named J. T. Tate was slightly
wounded in the back. The weapon
ti?>eu was a pistol and the shooting
occurred on Mr. J. A. M. L. Stewart's
plantation. The coroner's jury rendered
u verdiot tliat Warren was killed
by a young man named W. Ii. Burron.
who had not been arrested ud to >lon
day evening. It is not stated who
shot Tate. The reports a? to the origin
of the trouble are conflicting. but it
seems that. Mr. Barron and a Mr. WilHford
were acting ns peace-makers
between some colored men when they
were drawn into the trouble. The
tragedy Is greatly deplored in the community.
