The i main idea of the convention, therefore, ( is that this country should be made as nearly self-supporting as possible, and not dependent on other lands. < The address calls attention to our j uneven and unbalanced industrial con- j difcion, and as an example it refers to \ the auomaly that America now pur- j chases $100,000 of sugar annually from . slave-holding Cuba, which can be < profitably produced at home from < cane, sorghum and beet. Among the j industries that will be represented at < this convention are sugar, flax, ramie, hemp, jute, etc. The wool growers of j the country who had arranged to hold ] a meeting in Chicago somewhat earlier ] will postpone it a few weeks, so as to < assemble at the same time as this in- j dust rial Congress; and will thus add j to its strength and influence. i "What," said a correspondent of the ! Atlanta Constitution to Sam. J. Tilden ] a few days ago, "do ycu think should ( be the leading issue of the Democratic part#-iu the coming campaign?" ana his answer promptly given is - "Reform Now, does it not seem super- " flaons to say that the American peo- < pie are tired of this evasion? They 1 have voted against it repeatedly, and ] nothing bnt the most amazing atnpidi- < ty can fail to se# that it is ue go. An j answer in general terms to a specific, i inquiry is no new dodge, it is as old as ] the hills, and will not even impose on ] the school-boy. Eefoim?there is an i infinite variety of opinion as to what is 1 comprehended under the term. It is < necessary to go into particulars. The i National Convention of the Democrat- i ic party meets at an early day; the 1 people at large have come to attach < much meaning to the "platform" 1 which it is customary to adopt on snch < occasions. Let it be plain. Let it in- ? dicaie upon what particular subjects legislation is to be expected, what par- 1 ticular abuses arc to be reformed, and j then the voter may be expected to , know upon what grouuds the demand 1 fear a change of rulers is based. - ; 1 The Hew York~~ (xrapJttb "says of 3 South Carolina in connection with the \ Cash sensation: "The State of Soath !

Members of Congress, as a | rale, fare no better than others, and oftentimes indulge in some pretty plain ; expressions when informed by the ' messenger at the door that he dares not j announce their presence to~ the Secretary. A day or two since a prominent politician from New York, whose ^ name has always been an open sesame to the closet of any official, was stopped at the door of the Secretary's office with the information that the Secretary was not receiving visitors at that hour.

THE STATE COXVEXTIOX. Pursuant to a call by the State Democratic Executive Committee the State Democratic Convention will meet in Columbia on Thursday, the twentysixth of June next. Under the present apportionment each county will have twice as many delegates as it has Senators and Representatives in the General Assembly. The Convention is'foiled for tBfe pnrpose bf nominating electors for; Resident amfYice-Presilop represent ^ the State Democracy In^the ^National Conven tion at Chicago, the nomination 01 Governor, Lieutenant-Governor and the otheristafe officers, and a new Executive Committee. ' I In view of the work "before the Contention,* the deliberations and action will be of great concern and importance not only to the party, but to the commonwealth at large. The Convention when it assembles mnst decide apon the expediency or good policy of making State nominations in June, or postponing until later :n the summer. We believe that it is Me judgment of the Democracy throughout the State that the entire work of nominating candidates for the various offices. Fed eral and State, should be gone through with in June, and by so doing avoid the expense and trouble of calling a second Convention. A little thought upon the subject will convince the majority of intelligent Democratic votersthat the party interests dictate the line of policy above indicated, and we have no doubt but that it will be so adjudged by the approaching Convention. Certainly- no arreat or serious harm can possibly result from niacins the standard-bearers * 3f the party early before the people, and permit them the privilege of canpassing as thoroughly as they may wish their qualifications for the offices for which they may respectively be placed in nomination. The connty Democracies cannotbe too careful in the selection of their'representatives to the State Convention. Let Fairfield connty see to it, that her best and strongest men, men who will properly representthe convictions of the voters upon the issues of tbe day, are elected to re present tie county"and her interest at. the Capital in June. ~ CABMSLE OIK THE TABIFF. At a recent meetiug of the New Fork Free Trade Club, in New York lity, Speaker Carlisle, in response to Jie toast "Onr Federal Union," placed himself squarely upon the record as an jarnest advocate for a substantial reform of the tariff. Mr. Carlisle was toe special guest of the club and the real, lion of the evening. The promi- . aence thus accorded him was doubtless ' i J.J r 1.L -r .meuueu lor. ukj purpose ui eumuug irom faim a public utterance upon the p*eat living issue of free trade. Much ivas expected, and the enthusiasm svith which his deliverances upon the tariff were received, is evidence sufficient of the profound impression made ipon his intelligent and cultured audi- . ?nce. Introductory to his eloquent . iud logical address, he said: Certainly I shall not attempt to do. more than" call your attention very briefly to one or two of the most conjrvinnAno ft /Itto nfo /*nf AAn^AituA/) tir?An' ipivuvu'j auvaiiut^ wiucuw u^vu ihe American people by the nnion established in 1789. The peaceable and ' jrolnntary formation of that union tinier the Constitution which made such radical ctianges'ln the relations "previously existing between the several States themselves and between them wid the General Government was nn3onbtediy one of the greatest political ichievements of modern times. It is Jifficfllt to say which is more entitled to our admiration; the statesmanship if men who framed the Constitntion :>r the patriotism and intelligence of the people of the several States who ratified it and made it for themselves md their posterity the supreme law of ;he land. It is, I think, safe to assert that inno other part of the world could >nch a fundamental change have been peaceably made at that time, and, per-' baps, gentlemen,-it is equally safe to , say that it could not have* been made r bere twenty or thirty years later. Speaking of the different Constitutional provisions of the old Confedera Lion and of the general Impotence of ihe existing government, he said: Each State had the right to lay imposts and daties subject only to ' the condition that they shonld not interfere svith treaties entered into by the United States in Congress assembled with foreign Kings, Princes or States, rhere was no limitation whatever upon the power of any State to impose iuues upon the products ot any other American State brought within its limits for sale or consumption, for the purpose of raising revenue or for the purpose of protecting and encouraging its own domestic manufactures. The State of New York had full power to impose any rate of duty its authorities might see^proper to establish upon the products of New Jersey, brought: here lu search of a market, and New Jersey possessed the same power in respect to the products of New York. If the doctrine of protection is. what its friends claim, if its application to infant industries in new States enables them to overcome natural disadvantages and secure a higher degree of prosperity than would be otherwise attainable, it must be admitted that the arrangement existing under the confederation TV V?? *? n AOV VMV UMU Vl w have been disturbed. Bot, gentlemen, the framers of the Constitution, the men who founded this Federal Union, did not think so. They believed that free trade, absolute free trade between the several States was imperatively demanded by the interests of the people. Accordingly they adopted thfe provision as part of the Constitution without a single dissenting vote: "No State shall without the consent of Congress lay imposts or: duties upon imports or exports, except what may be absolutely necessary for executing its inspection laws, and the net proceeds of all duties and imposts levied by any State on imports or exports shall be tor the use of the treasury of the United; States, and all such laws shall be sul> iect to revision and control by Con; stress." . Upon the new order of things under the present Constitution and. of the effects upon the industries of the conntrv, he said: Thus;free trade was established by. the Constitution, not only between the States then existing, but between all States that might thereafter exist as members of the Federal Union. And [ venture to believe, my friends, that ?o most ardent advocate-of the pro= :ective system will -admit that the svonderfdl growth and' 'prosperity 0f ihis conntry since 1790 are attributable largely to this provision?more largely : ;han to any other one thing. With : free commercial intercourse between i ;he States, our internal commerce has i >teadily and rapidly grown until it: < imonnts to thonsands of millions of ' lollars annually. More than one hun- < ired and twenty thousand miles of 1 ailroad have been constructed over ] vhich almost innumerable trains are 1 - a 3 * constantly passing, carrying manufactured and other articles of commerce frtyn State tq>State, .jrchile our great wat^Nroys'!are.^crowded" with steamers and barges, and "other craft laden with the procfacts of every part of the Union; The markets of New York areas free as the markets of Philadelphia^- the iron and steel and coal of Pennsylvania, "as free as the markets of Savannah, or Mobile, or Charleston forcotton and the fruits of the South. What a ditterent picture this country presents from ,what if would have presented if the policjt,ot restriction and protection had prevail ed among'the States as it lias prevailed for so many years between the United States and "foreign nations! Under the liberal policy established by the Constitution, our means of internal communication and transportation have increased and are still increasing, while under the restrictive and obstructive policy of Congress our merchant ma, rine, once a source of pride and profit? Vino alinncf /Hc?irvnAarA<1 frfim flio and unless something oan be done to arrest its further decline, it will disappear'entirelv. Free commercial intercourse between the States has encouraged trade, promoted the development of our natural resources, fostered agriculture and manufactures, and added untold millions to the wealth of the people, while the protective system maintained by Congressional legislation has, to a" large extent at least, shut us out from the markets of > the outside world, limited production srrt>-i U-1I-. J. _ Al. _ J. 1. 1. biamuuiv iu uiu uuuiuuus ui uuuie uuiisumption, and in many cases actually arrested the farther development of great iudastrial interests. Under this system when any highly protected manufacturing industry has reached n stage of development which enables it to sapply the home demand, its growth must virtually ccasc, because its produce can have access to 110 other markets. The Speaker referred to the provision in the Constitution which expressly delegates to Congress the power to levy and collect taxes, duties, imposts and excises to pay debts, and to pro-. vide for the common defence and general welfare, contending with power and effect that the Constitutional grant simply authorized such for public purposes. He said: It is the greatest of abases to employ the power of taxation thus granted for private instead of public purposes. A1 tax imposed by public authority to foster a private interest, therefore, is not a legitimate use of the power of taxation, but' simply spoliation. * * **. It ,is the duty of Congress to proceed carefully and conservatively ! * ?* < ? ' AM flllO CltWAAf for\ ii: li-o jcgiaitttii/u vn uuo ouujuv^ planse] having doc regard at every step to the large interests involved. In other words, t am infavor'of reformation, not revolution. . [Cheers.] But, Mr. President, this process of reformation must go on until the . power of taxation is used only for proper purposes. [Cheers.] There must be no step backwards. [Cheers.] Nor any deviation from correct principle and sound policy. As I have already briefly intimated this Federal Union is a commercial as well, as a political one ?politically we.are free, commercially we are not." * ? * * For myself, Mr. Chairman, 1 will cheerfully co; ^ ^ A 1 'rtll Al>AaAi\*nA Willi *11 ? ujcu ami an ui^aui^ations, bv whatever name they may be known, in all proper cffects "to bring about tbesc grand .results. The above extracts from the address of Mr. Carlisle are clcar, pointed and unequivocal, and will certainly suffice to place the Speaker and his party fair? ly before the country.7 Messrs. Editors: I have just read the communication from our friend in Texas, Mr. S. "W. Jackson, in The News and Herald, and as he has come to light again and given us an idea of the climate, etc., of his western home, I will endeavor to give your readers a brief description of this part of the moral vineyard, though I am sorry I cannot 'present a more attractive picture of our town and its surroundings than at present meets the eye of the beholder. The past winter has been one of the severest ever experienced in this part of the country. The old year closed with fearfully cold weather, and 011 the 7th of January there was a heavy fall nf snow and sleet, and from that time one heavy rain succeeded another, causing a general overflow of all the low lands and. making the roads in places almost totally impassable. The leading topic of conversation here, for more than two months, has been thfc cold weather, the bad roads, and the high water. The railroad between this place and Pine Bluff was over-, flowed so that for a whole week the trains could not pass over, and the mail' had to be transferred in skiffs. But at last, though the raiu has not entirely ceased, we lmve occasional days of sunshine, and everything is f/\ IaaI* mni'O . Thn W 1VVR 4UVIV VUVVilUi. farmers, though badly behind with their work, on acconnt of the bad weather, are in high spirits, anticipating favorable seasons and an abundant yield , of their farms the present year, and according to the signs of onr ancestors their expectations are likely to be fully realized. These people certainly have .many advantages ever their eastern friends; land is cheaper, timber is plentiful, and above all, the soil is fertile, yielding its abundance unaided by the use of compost or commercial fertilizer. Cattle, too, are plentiful here, and not. like they are in Fairfield, confined to small aud sometimes scanty pastures, they are allowed to graze at will, in herds large and small, over hundreds and thousands of acres of woodland, which in summer affords a most excellent pasture. Ilogs also do well, and they are annually made fat upon the acorna of the forest. Nearly all kinds of vegetables and fruits that belong to this climate grow 10 periecuon nere, una la&ing everything into consideration Southeastern Arkansas is a first-rate place to live. True there are- a great many poor people here, and hundreds of mortgages executed by the poor class Qf families in order to obtain supplies are annually filed in the clerk's office of our town; but this is the fault of individuals and not of the couniry, for there is no just reason why every one- should not make a competent and independent living here. Monti cello is a flourishing town with about twelve hundred inhabitants. It is pleasantly situated, just forty miles from the Mississippi, and right on the line of the L. M. R. & T. R. R., with the rich bottom lands of several bayous on the north and east," and the fertile ?alleyof the Saline River on the west, she is destined to become one of the leading cities of the State. There is a proposed -railroad now on foot fro-m New Orleans along the Mississippi V Valley, through this place and on to the northwest, which if completed, will "greatly increase the value of property, swell the number of inhabitants, "developc the resources" of the coobtry and extend the trade of our town. In point of moral, social and edacational advantages. Montxcello' can compete with any town of its size I have ever seen. " There are three churches in town?Methodist, Baptist and Presbyterian?the members of TO-hTrh <ind thnir nastors all coiucide and labor together in promoting the glorious' and common cause in which they are engaged. And there" is a high school here, where between three and four hundred pupils, male aud female, large and small, are daily instructed by a corps of proficient teachers. We have also a live county paper, published weekly, and numerous other enterprises that go to show that these people are up with the times and are moving on with the tide of progress. Mere i wonia siop wnuiig, uui. allow me to say that the arrival of The News and Herald at this office every Monday evening is indeed a pleasure to me. The distance intervening between here and my home of former days enables me fully and properly to appreciate a paper from there. It is always as gladly received and its pages scanned with as mnch eagerness and pleasure as was ever manifested on the part of a passionate lover on receiving a billetaoux from the idol of his heart.

The gentleman who outlines his case below is a man considerably advanced in , life, and is noted for his sterling integrity, llis postoffice is Yatesville, Upson county, Ga. The following is if R.JOHN PEARSON'S STATEMENT. In the spring of 18821 was attacked with a very bad cough, which continued' to grow worse, until fail, when I got so weak that I could not get about. I tried a great many kinds of medicine but continued to irrnw u-nrcp T wm notified that I had consumption and would probably die. Dr. -Holloway finally told me to try- Brewer's Lung Restorer. They sent to Ward's Store and got a.bottle and I commenced taking -ifc-rigbt away. After taking two or three doses, I began to improve, and by the time I had used up one bottle I was able to get on my feet again. I am now in excellent health. I am confident that the Lung Restorer saved my life and my neighbors are of the same opinion. It is the Dest Lung Remedy ever made in my opinion. Dr. H. promised me that he would write to the manufacturers and tell them of the won aenui cure n juaue m my u?k>c. Statement of Mr. BeDj. F. Heamdoiu Early in November, 1881, while sewing on the machine, my wife was taken with a severe pain in her side, which was soon followed by hemorrhages, from her longs and a severe cough. Fever commenced,, she could neither eat nor sleep, and in a few weeks she was reduced to a living skeleton. The attending physician told me that he thought one of ner lungs was entirely gone. She could not retain the most aeiicate nourishment on her stomach. I then agreed with Dr. Sullivan, my family physician, to call Dr. Holloway in consultation. They made a final examination of the patient and pronounced the case hopeless. Dr. Holloway then suggested the Brewer's Lung Restorer as a last resort I sent for a bottle and gave her a dose. I found that she could retain it on her stomach and after about the third dose, I began to notice some improvement in her condition. I continued the medicine regularly, ana oy the time she had- taken two bottles, she was able to walk about the house. She fe now in better health than she has enjoyed for several years. I believe that Lung Restorer saved her life. We have a family of. six children, some of them gro\m." Mr. Herndon's postoffice is YatesviHe, Upson county, Ga. He is a thoroughly reliable man in every particular. I U II a PILLS at TORPID BOWELS, DISORDERED LIVER, and MALARIA.
