It takes from $2,000 to $3,000 to bury a Congressman when he dies in Washington, but if be died at home a few hundred dollars would meet all expenses.

Augusta Chronicle: Washington merchants ask Congress to make a law requiring Government clerks to pay their debts on pain of dismissal. Good <-nongh; but had not the Government letter pay off the French spoliation claims before punishing the peccadilloes of the clerks, who would probably be better able to pay their debts if . ; they had not been so fearfully raided by political leaders for election purposes. i '' . Mexico has determined to build up ? merchant marine. A company has been lormea in ice uity 01 jaexico, which has ordered six large new irteamsbips from the Clyde. The government has entered into a contract to pay each of these ships a subsidy p-'r trip to Europe via New Orleaus. and Havana of $22,000.

The - amount of actual cash -taken from let-' v t ere was nearly #39,000, and the value ?fchecks. etc.. representing money, j;bout $1,600,000. Daring the last year the number of pieces of mail matter s?r -s tlwt reached the dead letter office was nearly four and a half millions. The exact number was 4,440,822. This is about 14,500 for every day. As a specimen of what a Southern cotton-mill may do, we may take the * condition of the Eagle and Phoenix mills at Columbus, Ga. In . 1883 the company earned a net revenue of $S8,000, out of which an 8 per cent, dividend has jast been paid. The manager of this great property, which cost $i ,250,000, * says tixat 1888 was tbe hardest year the cotton mill men ever experienced, still he managed to make some money; besides buying ont of the income an expensive piece of real estate, making a new dam and new flames. The company have projected a new mill to cost $900,000. The mills have earaed since < 2867 and paid oat $1,S70,000 in dividends, and there has been built out of the revenue a new mill, costing $1,000,000/ and there is still a large surplus" to the credit of the company. - --These i?a pecoliar muddle in the politics of Philadelphia. John Hnnter has been nomimtfed by the fiepnblicau convention for city tax collector, endorsed by the committee of one hundred, and also by the Democratic convention. Now another fellow named John Hnnter proclaims himself a candidate for the same office, and the question that perplexes the denizens of Philadelphia is which of the John i Hunters the votes shall be counted for. The law prohibits placing any printed j or other device on the tickets to distinomiah one from the other, and the I votes mast go into the boxes for plain, simple John Hunter, and there are too plain, simple John Hunters, ueither of whom seems to have family pedigrees sufficiently conspicuous to entitle him to a middle name. ' L gHALL I.AXD BEAK THE BtRPEX f Recent Articles in the News and Courier on taxation deserve careful attention.- Bnt we cannot agree with hnMinn- ftiot fho hllN mr. V/Oiiuciu in uviumj kimt >uv >? den should rest entirely upon owners of real estate, especially in Sooth Carolina. While taxation of personal - 5?L.I properry is uvuuui;^ aucnucu it difficulty, through the operation of frauduieut returns, this is no reason that capitalists, by being absolved from all burdens, should be allowed to take advantage of their own wrong, Nor is it necessary to relieve all personal property, in order to avoid double taxation, such as that upon a mortgage and on the land on which it is a lien. Legislation can easily prevent this; bat it is a question whether exemption should not be granted to the mortgagor. Another point urged, that capital (as opposed to land) is the result of savings, and that a tax upon itis a discouragement to frugality?may be aus we red by showing that practically all existing real estate in South Carolina has come into possession by way of purchase and not in a free grant from the State, and is therefore equally with personal property, the result of savings. There is also now very little "unearned increment" In land here, for its value has chiefly been imparted to u oy me sweat ?i uie owner s uruw or bv the actual expenditure of money in improvements. Much land also lies idle, with which its owner would gladly part, but the coy capitalist is uot forthcoming. Shall this be taxed while dividend paying stocks and shares are exempt? Land suffers already from not being taken as collateral for bank loans; further discrimination might deal it a death blow. Great stress is laid upon the argument that taxation of personal property discourages the introduction of capital for certain desired industries. Now, wliile diversified industries on it. . ?i. ,.< ~ i Hit: Mrcugui tii a oiaix*) u;vcio:iiuiuvii should be the result of natural and not of artificial causes. In reaching oat our hands for factories, railroads and banks, we forget that in its last analysis all wealth is the produce of land and labor, and that, as has been said, the amount of raw materials and of food is the limit of industrjg^w that diversify as wc^ jgjiifrJ^rlculture "affer^attis4iad=;ieveirw i 11 be the backbone of South Carolina's material pro-perily. T.ift iri-nof ovafiriulioro is fha fnnrlon. J. W VUb \* I Vi J VUV WIIVtVK cy of population to leave the country and >eek shelter in cities. This gives rise to the conditions which evoke socialism, communism and agrarianism. We need as vel apprehend no such troubles here. Still, agricultural labor is growing already scarcer every vear. and disastrous would be any legislation that would aggravate this evil. Capital is said to be timid; but capital never hesitates when profit is asured, else smuggling asid blockade running would never have been thought of. When to agricultr.re in South Carolina is assured a handsome surplus, other industries will flourish and foreign capital will pour in upon us. But of what use are factories if there be no cotton, of banks if there be no borrowers, of railroads if there be no freight? The experience of every "bad year" confirms the assertion afrescly made," that tbe^jxffole^ndustrial fabric of Soutlt Carolina rests upon the agricnlfurist. The land is his implement. It certainly should not suffer discrimination. The laud problem in Great Brittain and Ireland may furnish some data for economic reasoning as regards Charleston, but it cauuot be applied to the rest of the State. The conditions are too different. Oar tax laws certainly need revisionbnt not such revision as will make land bear the burden. THE PIVOTAIi STATE. The papers are beginning to give their opinions as to the particular Cfofrt nrUi<?K OKATTA ol! Atliopo if iO im. CUtlV w ntvu owviv un vvmv> cj a w *<- i?uportant for the Democratic party to carry in the coming national contest. The Chicago Herald is strongly of the opinion that the carrying of New York is essential to Democratic success. The present number of votes in the Electoral College is four hundred and one, making two hundred and one necessary to a choice. Iu 1880 the foliowj ing-named States gave their votc9 for I Hancock and English: ' iloluimo 3 Arkansas $Xew Jersey 9 California 5'North-Carolina.. 10 Delaware 3. South Carolina.. 7 Florida 4iTennessee 12 Georgia lliTexas 8 Kentucky 12; Virginia 11 Louisiana ?8i West Virginia.. 5 'Maryland. 8; Mississippi 8: Total 155 Missouri.....15! By tbc new apportionment addiI finmil vnf^s were siren* to the above mentioned States as follows: / Arkansas 1 South Carolina... 2 California 2 Texas 5 Georgia 1 Virginia 1 Kentucky 1 West Virginia? 1 Mississippi 1 ? Missouri 1 Total.... 18 North Carolina 1 Adding this increased vote to tliat cast in 1880 gives the strength of the Democrats in the Electoral College at i72, which, with the thirty-six votes of New York State, would make 208, a clear majority of seven. In this enumeration the Herald thinks the only State not certainly Democratic is New York,: while not included in it are Indiana and Connecticnt, which are qnite as likely to be Democratic as llepublican. Beyond this it would be idle for the Democrats to look. They might carry all the States first named, and Iudiana and Connecticut as well, bat, losing New York, they would be defeated. On the other hand, if they shonld make New York the battle-field, and stake their hope of success on their ability f to carry it, they would, witft uuod? jectionable candidates, have but to 1 retain a State already their own, and the votes of Indiana and Connecticut could be held in reserve to make up for any break which might occur in I some less important quarter. "The - ' . .-V* necessity of the Democrats making their campaign in New York is so plain as to require no labored orgnment to snbstantiate it. Without that State they cannot win, as the figures show. With it, defeat would be practically oat of the question. ' "The pretense that Ohio can be made a Democratic State this year is idle. Hopes based on that idea will be shattered. The State lias never failed to vote for Republican candidates in Presidential elections. It has occasionally been carried by the Democrats in off vears, but as regularly as the quadrennial contests have taken place it has returned to its allegiance. New York, on the contrary, when not overwhelmingly Democratic, has always been close, and since the war it has been earned twice by Democrats in Presidential years. Nothing bnt the unpopularity of Mr. Greeley with the party whose candidate he was, prevented the State from declaring against Grantism in 1872 as vehemently as it did in 1876. In no previous contest has the possession of New York been of such vital importance to the Democrats as now, for at no other electiou iu twenty-five years have they had a certainty of enough votes elsewhere i :* XO eieci ineir eainuuiuus even it uicv did carry that State. This year they have that certainty." From these considerations the Herald thinks that the one State \rhicli the Democrats must make sure of carrying is New York, and that they should bend all their energies to that end. On the other hand, the Augusta /"fJiMunl'c fKuf llin /lio^AticiArc I \Sf*i \JIII1HQO WlC?fc IUV Vit^CVIIOlVI'U so common in the New York Democracy make it inexpedient for the party to risk all in the national contest, upon the chances of carrying that State. It wonld seem rather early just now to tell the exact quarter in which the Democracy should expeud their chief efforts. Later on, when the conditions j of the contest may be better consid! ered, it may be easier to settle the "pivotal" question. IHE NEW MARSHAL. Some Account^? hi^Jmteccdents?A Favor ablo Crlti^m* by a Democratic News [From the Sumter Watchman.] Mi*. T. J. Tuomev. who has "beet nominated by the President, as Marshal of South Carolina, was born in Ireland in 1841. His father, Bartholenew Tuomev, moved over to this country shortly after the birth of his son, briuging his iauiily with him, and located in Charleston. Young Tuomey was educated at St. Mary's School iii Columbia, where he remained foui years. After leaviug school he was apprenticed to a brick layer, and became quite expert at handling a trowel. Mr. Tuomey enlisted in the Richland Volunteer/, Col. Gregg's Regiment, and after it disbanded, joined the 15th Regiment, where he remained until just before the close of the war, when he was appointed Aid to General Kershaw. His military record was good, and he still numbers his old comradef-in-arms among his best friends. After the surrender he settled in Charleston, and worked and voted with the Democrats until 1868, "when becoming disgusted with the Democrats for their apathy and indifference in the mayoralty contest between Lesesne and Pillsbnry, he registered an oath never to vote another Democratic ticket." Moving to Sumter shortly after, and leavin^aLLbiS Democ-/aticprocli vitfea-^L. Cfiarleston, he joTi^-theTtepuhlicans and has worked with them and for them ever sine?. He was not aw active politician at that time, but engaged himself with energy in his business, and has always been known as a thrifty, go-ahead worker. In 1874, he was elected School Commissioner of Sumter county, and held that office for four years. No charges, so far as we know, have ever been brought against hitu for mismanagement" in that office. In 1878 the Democrats elected county officers, and Mr. Tuomey retired from politics, and X A.J L! uevoieu luiiJ&eii iu uia unuc, uumig which time he erected some of the best buildings in Sumter- His present appointment seems to have been a genuine surprise. Sam Lec was the main mover, and it was his influence that made the effort successful; although Smalls was also favorable to the nomination. His confirmation is reasonably certain, and as we are to have a Republican, we would sooner it would be T. J. Tuoruey than any of his competitors, and we think we speak the sentiment of the county .in so saying. His well known honesty in all the Hncinocc onfornvlape with wliirth hp llflQ ?*"" f ?? ? been connected in Sumter has given him a good financial standing with our business men, and we think ^he Senate will be wise to confirm the nomination so unexpectedly made, for, barring politics, we think we have a good Marshal. To Repair Damages. Dear lady, there is probably no use telling you that fashionable life in a great city is a rough one on your beauty. Late hours, loss of sleep and mental excitement will leave you by and by shorn of those beautiful tresses which drew lovers around you in other years. Artificial substitutes can never pass for those rich and glossy locks. Parker's Hair Balsam will stop your hair from falling out, restore its natural color and softness, and prove cleansing and beneficial to the scalp. * STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA, COTJXTY OF FAIKFIELD.
