"Some ' days," he savs, "I can walk firmly ami easily, and on the others I can't g^alohg so well. There were about one thousand five1 hundred and seventeen murders recorded last year. Only ninety-three Of: the murderers were hanged according to law, but Judge Lynch put the noose around the necks of one huudred and eighteen. ^ During the present winter in New York over one huudrcd wagons have been robbed by a band of thieves who make that department of crime a specialty.

Senator Bkowx, of Georgia, has just given $1,000 to the Richmond College, Virginia, the interest to be used through all coming time in educating some poor and deserving young : * man.

She got a divorce a lew years ago from her husband, Jehiel A. Barnard, who ?' was the secretary of the Indianapolis Board of Trade, and married the Senator.

The sentiment in favor of woman enffivirfA m?ATT??nop rorvMltr in Taw*! if is claimed. Its advocates are vigor onsly at work, and some of the most influential papers in tb i State have given in their adhesion to the movei meat'. The next Legislature will be ; asked to take the final step toward subv mitting a constitutional amendment on the subject to the people, and if this be / done an earneSt campaign in favor of t its adoption will be made in 1884. , , - i ? g-? ^ mm - AugCsta Ukroniclei Gen.

There is, he says, no period of his life upon which he looks with greater satisfaction than that in which he attempted to adjust by compromise the differences that were, ten years later, seiuea dv war. Says the Macon Telegraph: There is no hostility anywhere in the South to the United States flag.

On the 7th inst. the negroes celebrated the anniversary of the emancipation proclamation. A negro company pa raded our streets under a standard of ' ~ its own. It is time that we were done with, this childish stuff about the "old flag." When it shall need defenders, . then we may see who will rally soonest and thickest to its snpport. 7 The grand jury of Esses county, New-Jersey, recommends the establishment of the whipping-pest for wife beaters. A good and sensible recommendation, and if the women of our country could have recourse to a penal - statute of this character, the wives of a certain class of people would be treated with greater kindness and consideration, and flowing wives at home jl wouki uecuuie uovut as uupupiuur ,us flogging htcsbands in the public market places of the country. "Will not the : -South Carolina General Assembly sometime adopt the wise suggestion of - - the New Jersey grand jury, and in Jhiswav offer better protection to the weaker ses. c . The Senatorial situation in Ken- v tucky remains about the same, and the a present deadlock promises to continue i for some days to come. For the last \ week the present incumbent, Senator s Williams, has been leading in the race e and his chances of ultimately receiving i the nomination encouraging. Latterly, ( attempts have been made to bring out- t side pressure to bear upon the com- 1 ba>..s, meetings are being held in differ- ? ent portions of the State and instrnc- i tions are being sent up to vote for Mr. Blackburn. The issue seems to be one < simply of personal preference, and it is i therefore difficult to predict the proba- < Ma /vf tVio -fiorhf- The election < viv lvcmvo vi wuv . f of Blackburn would doubtless be the < more acceptable to the party and to the i count rv. \ It appears that there is a very rea- , sonable possibility that the monopoly , of the Western Union Telegraph Com- j panv, and consequently those of the , New York and Western Press Associations, will soon disappear. The new telegraph combination, the "Rapid," , st the head of which is millionaire Mackev, and which comprises the Baltimore and Ohio, the Postal Telegraph Companies, and the Pacific Mutual, is already in operation in nearly all the cities east of Colorado and tfn the Pacific slope, and within a few months it will have completed its connections with every city iu the Union. This will practically bring about free trade in news, and enable any one to establish a newspaper without the preliminary of paying an exorbitant bonus to some press association or combination of established journals. There is a standing rule of the En cyciop&aia xfrnannica unuer wuiuii no biographies of living persons are published. The rule is a good one in some respects, but it has its inconveniences. While it is true it prevents, to some extent, unpleasant controversies, it is doubtful whether this advantage is not more than counterbalanced by the important omissions it compels. For instance, in the edition now being published the names of Carlyie, Disraeli and Emerson are conspicuous by their absence; for all three were alive when their places in the alphabet were passed. Now it is too late to remedy the omission, and the value of the present edition is by so mach reduced. But this kind of thing is constantly occurring; it is only due to the fac!; of three such great names lapsing from life in so short a period that special attention is called to the rule. The difficulty might be remedied by publishing a supplementary volume at the close of the regular series. Tiik Commissioner of Internal Revenue is said to be very indignant over the report of Mr. Brewster Cameron, of the Department of Justice, reflecting on deputy collectors of internal reve nue as parties to improper arrests 111 the Southern States for the purpose of piling up fees. The Commissioner declares that the internal revenue officials have no interest in common with the marshals, and are paid salaries instead of fees. But Mr. Cameron asserts that where illicit still- * '0 ? fiacticca xc x? usual iu many instances for the deputy collectors to work in collusion wun tne marsnais in malting cases. They draw witness fees and mileage when they do not act directly as deputy marshals' Another party to the schemes for making fees is the United States Commissioner, who has the power of exacting such liberal fees as to make every case before him pay from $10 to $12. By the means : and devices resorted to by these officials every arrest for infraction of the internal revenue laws costs the Government snms ranging from $25 to $50 before it gets to the court. In North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia and Tennes see, the cases heard by the Commissioners, but which never come to trial in a court, are said to be in the proportion of ten to one at least, and in some districts they are forty to one. In this district it is shown that a company of forty illicit distillers and dealers in illicit whisky were persuaded to appear before a United States Commissioner, plead guilty aad give bonds to appear at coiu*t. They failed to appear; the bonds, which were worthless, were declared forfeited, and bench warrants were issued; these were served and the parties brought again before the same Commissioner, were again bonded to appear at court, and again failed. This was repeated three times; each time the Commissioner, marshal and witnesses received their fees,amounting iu the aggregate to several thousand dollars. The criminals were parties to the frauds, sharing in the fees. They were finally brought into court, pleaded guilty,were recommended to mercy, and sentence was suspended.' Not one was ever : punished. KftFTHT.BV rWWTCIMTTft* The yeics and Courier of the 19th inst., in an editorial, short but forcible and to the point, sets forth the necessi- . ties of a Southern landing for foreign , immigrants, and the claims of Charleston are therein urged, as they should be, with vigorous diction and convincing logic. It says: Charleston is the most eligible place for a Southern Castle Garden, and it is : well worth while to encourage its es- I tablishment. Colonel Butler, the Com- i missioner ol Agriculture, is exerting himself to induce the Southern Immigration Association to select this port and will have, we arc sure, the hearty j co-operation of the municipal anthori- ( ties. One great difficulty in establishing direct trade between the Southern | ports and Europe is the lack of inward ? freight. Immigrants will make the inward voyage profitable, and there is j no trouble in obtaining outward ^ freights. The voyage to Charleston is far pleasanter than the voyage to j New York, and the immigrants would ^ be spared the discomforts of the severe r Northern winters. T From Charleston the immigrants can jbe sent cheaply and comfortably to t any part of the* South and West, and the State will be freed from the ob- ^ ctrnofiAnc ind m5CrATirfVWllf5>fion5 nf i the agents of the Northern ports, whose aim is to prevent immigrants a from seeking homes in the Sonth. n ; That the South with her vast, imde- a eloped resources, almost unknown ,nd unpublished to the Jworld, needs mmigrants, and by the term we meat vbite men, intelligent, energetic ant killfnl. few will be found foolhard\ nongh to deny. That the stream ol mmigration is at present being divert :d from the Southern channels, ant hat too by willful lies and malignan nisrepresentations, is a fact, shamefu ind hnmiliatiiig, though none the lesi i truth. Does it not follow then as a just con ilusion from established premises, tha f South Carolina and her sister State: >f the South wish to encourage immi grants to come and settle in our midst jultivate our waste places and maki rich and productive the varied indus :ries of the country, that Jearnes md wisely-directed efforts should b made to establish a Southern landing Certainly it seems so, and what plac< in all our Southern latitude promise to be more suitable and better adapte* for the purpose than the metropolis o CT ?-il. r\ is O 1 *71*'.. ? -C?n DUUII1 VUlUliUU; 7Y ALU. a> 1111V liai wi a genial climate and a hospitable pec pie, Charleston should be selected a the S, *uhem landing for the foreig imraigirtuis. THE BIBLOMACHY. Messrs. Editors: The State Bear of Examiners of South Carolina, body whose integrity none can qnes tion, whose competency none ca doubt, did. on the 4th day of Septerr ber lust, adopt a series of text-booi for use in the public schools of thi State for the ensuing-five years. The acted after a thorough investigation c the merits of the different books place before them by the several publishin houses. For more than a month tl agents of these houses had free acces to the members of the Board; an thf?v marlfi ornnrl nsnof this ODDO: tmrity, this writer can testify. Thrc members of the Board are prominei teachers in active service; of the oth( two one is an ex-teacher, the othc closely connected with school worl Two were in constant attendance i the Normal Institute, and in contai with teachers from every part of ti State. With these advantages, wit the books before them and book agen ever on hand to point out excellence ana superior pumis m uil-uj, ?vc wui expect from such a Board only a wis selection, and the verdict of teachei is that the selection was a wise om Four sets of Readers were adopie besides three supplementary Reader; Says the State Superintendent: "In allowing four sets of Readers tl Board was governed by the concurrei opinion of the most progressive an successful teachers on the subjec Intelligent reading being the found: tion upon which the superstructure < education rests, it must be made tl: most important branch in .elemental' instruction. No one number of an set of Readers, however well grade it may be, gives sufficient practice t warrant the transition of the pupil t the next higher number of the sam set. The practice of many of the be: teachers is" to take a pupil through tb First Readers of three or four set theu through the Second Readers c the same sets, and so 011 until he con pl'etes the course of three or fou series."' ' ~ ~ ? Further the superintendent says "In allowing a choice between tw series in all the other branches it wa believed that the interests of the pupil would be promoted. As the Stat does not now supply text-books to tb schools, the Board cannot make an binding contracts with the publisher or the local dealers; and it become advisable therefore to rely upon th principle of trade competition to pre vent the extortion which monopoly invites." We supposed that this adoption wa for the whole State, and that we wer rid of the subject for five years, bu we must have been mistaken. "J new thing under the sun" has hap pened. A publishing house is sendinj an agent to the different County Board of Examiners, asking for an adoptioi of its books. If other houses hav made a similar attempt we are no aware of it. The Fairfield Board ha been requested to make such an adop tion. Whether the Board has a righ to adopt a set of text books is a matte of doubt to us, and the house requesl ing does not acKnowiectge the righl The agent nses the word recommend ation, and at the same time propose in some sort to par for it. What is th value of a recommendation for whicl there is compensation? The hous knows well that the recommendatio of our Board is equivalent to an adof tion oi tne dooks in tnis county, an as such it expects to use it. Is it es pedient that Fairfield should fail t avail herself of "the principle of trad competition?" Shall a county so abl represented on the State Board repudi ate the work of that Board? Hav the teachers of this couuty no rteht t use their individual tastes and sui their individual needs in the selectio of text-books? Now, about the price to be paid The Appletons agree, if the Boan recommend (virtually adopt) thei hnnks. that thfiv will he sofavorahl onto us as to sign a contract to let thei books remain at introductory price for five years. If the State Boar* "cannot make any binding contrac with the publishers or local dealers' how can the County Boards make sue! contracts? Is it reasoable to suppos that the Appletons, leaving matters a they now stand, will do otherwiS than keep their books at in trod actor; prices? Are they not offering to d exactly what they must do to keep th patronage of this county? True, th Appletons have money, but according to our information they stand in re ?ard to wealth third on the list of th houses competing for the text-bool trade of this State. Other houses ar ready to step in and supply us witl books at introductory priccs whenevc one refuses to do it. A Teacher. Prohibition in Marion.?The Pei Dee Index, in its last issue, shows th iffect of prohibition in Marion by sayng: 1. Six days have elapsed since the )ar-rooms were closed, and not a mar >eeir under the influence of whiskey 2. Mud, rain, sleet, ice, snow or Saturday, but not a man seen undei he influence of liquor. 3.

Yet ills is ~ S*4? ia\y The express agent at Marion has leclared that he will deliver no C. 0. D. ackeges of whiskey. The Index contends that the fteht gainst intemperance will not be ended ntH Marion is a "dry" town iu fact s well as in law. / " ' \ , | THE CHESTER ELECT I OS. ' The election for town council on 1 last Monday was the liveliest and I most exciting event which has s?c curred in Chester for many a. day. rm,^ ~ ..4:..^ ^ JL lie cilUl Mil I ICIUIUUUU one very much of* the appearances and occurrences in the memorable first I Hampton campaign, in November, t 1876. There were two tickets before j the voters on Monday?the one which was nominated in the meeting at the 5 court-house on Wednesday cf last week, with W. II. Hardin for intend ant, and J. H. Smith, Geo. \V. Gage, t J. A. otncKer aim b. is. .Lathan tor wardens; the other, headed by J. L. s Chambers for intendant, with John - Melvcr, E. C. McLure, \Y\ H. Nance , and W. II. Rosborough for wardens. 2 From the opening of the polls at nine o'clock a. m. until the closing at five p. in. earnest, lively, unremitting and, t in the main, good humored work was e done by the supporters of the two ? tickets. Some of the leading citizens gave the entire day to supreme efforts e in behalf of the ticket which was put s forth in the public meeting. There rl was a feeling that the struggle rose far f higher than a mere personal contest. , Had it been but this," the make up of ' some of the ballots cast 111 this elec-, tion would have been different. In* .s plain English, the question was, n whether the Act of the Legislature, of February, 1882, prohibiting the sale of spirituous liquors in the town of Chester should henceforth be verily a law, or whether it should be. as it confess* edly has been since its cnaclrnent, practically a failure. This, and noth* d ing less, w&s the issue, a On completing the connt of the votes the following was found to be the ' result: For intendant, W. II. Hardin n 222, J. L. Chambers 192. For wai^ 1_ dens, J. II. Smith 235, J. A. Strieker :s 228, S. B. Lathan 228, G. W. Gage 224. John Mclver 187, E. C. McLure ' 118G. W. H. Nancc 1S6. W. H. Ros ^ borough 179. The ticket with "W. II. Hardin at its head is, therefore, electd ed by an average majority of 35. cr The new council is made up of most c competent and worthy gentlemen, comie manding public confidence and repress senling all the interests of the town; a d majority of them stand among the leading property-owners of the place. They have no friends to reward and no enemies to punish. They will rule it with rlilicrpnnrv ricriflk* mirl irnnnrHjiHv ;r enforcing existing' laws and enacting ?i* such measures as in their judgment . will best promote the true interests oi all the people.?Reporter. :t "Our Women in the War."?The ie News and Courier, Charleston, S.
