Resolutions intensely svrapathic were introduced by the Grand High Chancellor. These were debated at length and finally adopted without amendment-. After a great deal of skirmishing each man succeeded in establishing to his own satisfaction his fidelity to the Union under the constitution. The'services being entirely oyer, the remains of the Reporter were formally consigned to the infinite gloom of dealb, and with a noiseless tread that would almost defy emulation the members repaired each to his own private retreat. Tiie Leap Year Ball.?The costumes of the ladies of the recent leap year ball were simply beautiful and upon this point all tastes except the hopelessly vitiated were at agreement. They were briefly as follows: Mrs. Pearce, from Columbia, wore Black silk and crimson ribbons. lire. G. C. Bacot. a combination-of pink satin and nun's veiling. Mrs. YV. O.

While in the city of Charleston a year or two ago he had the honor it seem? to escort a very pretly young lady out to some entertainment. When he weut in all was well and he had no idea for the next two hours that he would ever be unhappy again, in fact from the way she talked he went so far as to conclude that may be he had worried through ' ' 11 J1 - J- T. V , Wiin aooiii an uie iroaoie mat was e^cr intended for him in this world. Not so however, "the expectation of the wicked faileth." The bright sky which he had left on ?oing in, he fjund on coming out bad disappeared entirely, and lo the heavens was covered with darkness and the the rain was pattering on the street. A street car was heard coming in the distance, fearing that he might forget, the young lady suggested that they take that car. If any one can imagine how the old Napoleon felt when he saw the old guard go down on the field of Waterloo, he will have a faint idea of our Tr?/Yc of mAmanf fnn i>o 11 JQUU o (H uivuiviiij ivi uv suddenly recollected that there was not a red in his pocket. Thrown headlong upon his genius in this style, he made a desperate effort to stave off the consideration of the subject. In this he failed, and was finally driven in the hurry of the moment to the allegation that bis chips had been left inadvertually in his from. Upon thisadmission, the yonng lady begged him not to be embarrassed, bat to fall aboard, as she was not strapped. This he did reluctantly enough of coarse and they rode home surrounded by all the solemnity of a coming funeral. "Well, next morning he thought he ought to do something, and he did do something so unlike himself that those who knew him are bound to suppose that he was suffering from "emotional insanity." He sent the young lady back the five cents that she had expended on him and left her out of pocket the five that went on her own account. EXEMPTING FACTORIES. Messrs. Editors: Will you have -.he patience to insert in vour columns a few extracts from Nordhoff which have some bearing on the "Exemption E11courgement" plan for promoting the establishment of factories. Speaking of the gradual development of a country, lie savs: "The greater operations -:>?* , '- + --**h ~ - V >*' :^.yCr - .* ;- " .' ' - , - - ' ..." ? - ' ! of industry) which require extreme concentration of bdth tabor and capital,! ! will be long deferred until at last the ! country's natural resource* are fully j j explored, and the accumulation ot | wealth and the increase of population j are both so great as to lend naturally ! and safely to such employment for 1 both. The stages of development in 1 | such a case will be slow, but sure, and j I there will be no great crisis or panic, j nor any marked lowering of the con- j dition of the people. Their ingenuity j and desire for prosperity would lead j hem ta devise new industries, an'? con-1 trol new enterprises as fast as cnpit.il | and labor afford to prosecute them; and it is an important consideration that these new enterprises would grow ? l ii_. ?x 4.1,^ I uauiram out ui uiu uuiiuluuio ui ujv; i country, as to climate and production, and the wants of the people. "Unfortunately this natural and sound growth is not permitted. Different motives, among which are national pride, a desire for more showy production, the subtle fallacy of a "home market," so called, but mainly the greed for wealth and supremacy in ; individuals, unite to bring about 1 lie adoption of unjust and partial laws, enacted to favor some special branch of industry." Then, going on to speak of the results of the establishment of factories tn thp Tirntfefctive nlau in New Enn land, he says: "The effect of the protective duty was: 1st. By offering an unnaturally high reward to capital, to draw that away from a number of smaller industries, and concentrate it in a few great buildings filed with costly machinery. 2nd. To draw away a large part of the laboring population from their petty industries and their country homes into large manufacturing towns. and employments which made them more dependent and less ingenious and self helpful than before, "The life of a mill or factory operation being of a kind offering few hopes of advancement, and a smaller chance of independence than intelligent and enterprising people like to submit to, the best class of the New England population presently withdrew from it or never entered it. * * * ' * * # * "The manufacturers, to fill the gap, began systematically to import foreigners. mostly of a low grade of in- i telligence, and have continued to do this to the present time; with results evident to the country in a gradual but serious deterioration in the character of the population, the corruption of politics, the increase of vice, crime and ignorance. * * * * *. * * "The average of comfort and prosperity in ITew England is much lower thau it was before 'Protection7; and pauperism has greatly increased. "You see here that 'Protection to a*v\a tt r? ? n am fA +IlD I nuiug XUUUOULV .ntw U> \/U4ov cv ?.I?V people who were protected at the same time that it was unjust to that great mass of the population which, not being engaged in cotton manufactures, was not protected." I will close by another quotation, this time from Dickens. "Th^ 'fflflt'WifL -;_f this observation lays in the application _Th*t ain't no part of my duty. Avast' then, keep a bright lookout forard, and good lack to you I" B*s Brother. hymeneal. Married, December 17, at the residence of the bride's father Sir. G. P. Hoffman, BlytLewood, S.
