A xmrsER of critics are assailing the
Democratic leaders in both branches of
Congress on account of their inactivity.
These impatient people claim that
there are no leaders among the Democracy
in Congress, and assert in proof
that that there is no policy being outlined
this -winter, and that the Democrats
arc agreed os nothing.
Ocrii friends and patrons will be glad
to learn that we have made arrangements
with Mr. S. B. Latfaan formerly
ofYorkville to give us the news from
the National Capital. Air. Lathan is
? a young man of promise and is at
present a clerk in the War Depart-1
mentj at "Washington, and also in
attendance upon the Georgetown "Law
School. His letters will be read with
interest by the readers of the Herald.
a Washixgton paper believes that
the 'Hon. R. T. Merrick is eminently
qualified to fill a Cabinet position
under Mi\ Cleveland. .Mr. Merrick
certainly fills the bill for a position
and we would like to see him in the
Cabinet. It was generally understood
that he would have been Attorney
General under Mr. Tilden if he bad
not been defrauded of the prize, and
we would be glad to see him made one
of the Presidential advisors under the
new administration

O'Doxnoyax Rossa, who when informed
of the explosion in London a
few days ago said that he was glad to
hear it was shot in Ne*v York on February
2. His assassion was a fair and
handsome English nurse in one of the
11* ViV* # LX\i 11 \J UUUUb
was judged by the language which he
used when informed of the explosion
in London, and this woman determined
to end his existence. The dynamiter
still lives. The wound not being
at all dangerous. It is thought that
"*U ?" w
the intended assasin was emotionally
mad ou the dynamite question.
After a prolonged discussion, indulged
in from time to time when the
Senate had nothing else especially to
interest it-, and after various amendments,
the interstate commerce bill
was on Wednesday brought to a vote
and passed. It differs from the bill
passed by the House of Ilepresenta+1T-A5
mninlv in t.hp f<ir>f tnnf if nrn.
vides for a board of commissioners before
whom all matters of dispnte are
to be brought, who are vested with
certain powers to act to accomplish the
purposes of the bill. By the friends of
the House bill if was regarded as a
sort of compromise measure, which
amounted to nothing as a remedy for
the evils complained of. "When this
bill goer to the House it will meet
with the opposition of Mr. Reagan and
those who supported his bill, who will
not be content with such a substitute
for the bill which they advocated and
carried through the House. And
there it will probably hang until the
end of the session, as it will hardly
?? find friends enough to push it to the
front at this late day, when so rnnch
other matter is pending and demanding
attention.
The Cabinet.
As the time draws near, for the
Inauguration of Mr. Cleveland more
interest seems to be taken in the appointment
of Cabinet officers. At this
time no one can say who will be the
fortunate ones. It is understood that
Mr. Cleveland will visit Mr. Tilden
before leaving jSew York and that he 1

Gorman and one other, supposed to
be a prominent Southerner. This 1
meeting is supposed to be held in ref- :
erence to the appointment of a secretary
of State should Mr. Baynrd decline
to accept. There seems to be plenty
of Cabinet timber anxious to serve ]
their country iu that capacity. <
Xo matter who the fortunate ones 1
may be, they will hane plenty of work \
to do iu the different departments. (
The Republicans have been in power 1
so long: that there is little doubt but
considerable crookedness exits in some <
if not in all the departments of the i
Government, and it. will take a !
thorough and business man to make i
Ilk. all :he corrections which are necessa- l

Dynamite in Xew YorkIt
seems that the operations of the
iynamitcrs are not confined entirely to
England. New York was on Satar?AA?\A
AP n?? AfTn'rt

iry goods stores were blown up, it is
presumed on account of a strike. The
jsc of this explosive has become very
sequent and in our judgment it is now
:imc some action was taken by the
National and Stato Governments to
suppress its use and manufacture. It
is certainly an evil and a growing one,
md unless nipped in the bud-may become
so "alarming that the government
;an do very little to suppress it. It
will certainly be a very -deplorable
state of affairs when those who are a
little dissatisfied with their wages can
resort to the use of this powerful explosive
substance.
Stri&es are very irequent in me
Cnited States and if dynamite is to be
used as the means of compelling em-,
plovers to accede to the demands of
the employee it will certainly be an
alsrming . evil. Many innocent persons
may suffer from its use, as mighthave
been the case in_ London when
the attempt was made to blow np the
House. It is the duty of the government
to use all diligent means to protect
the property of its citizens.
Certainly the duty is plain in this
case. Some decided laws thoulu be
passed for the Jsupprcssion of the evil
before it has gained a hold in this
co 11 n try.
A wise and iudicious iaw should be
passed making it a crime to manufacture
this substance or even to keep it
in possession. The crime is great and
it will take a very stringent law, rigidly
enforced to uproot it. Our lawmakers
see the evil and we hope they
may apply a rigid and suitable remedy.
Oar Affricnltnral Outlook.
The winter is nearly over, and the
time has arrived when farmers are
discussing the agricultural outlook,
and beginning to make preparations
for plantiug a new crop.
To ns, it would seem that they might
propound to themselves some very
forcible andjvital questions. The past
two vears have hardlv been equalled
for failures of crops, and the. question
might very properly be asked, Are
we planting just exactly what we
should? No doubt many are discussing
in their own minds this question,
while others are contented to continue
in the old rut notwithstanding the fact
that their past experience should be sufficient
to make reasonable men pause
and consider. Wc do not claim to be
an expert in farming, or competent to
to give any advice to those who followed
that vocation all their lives, but
we venture to give f * 7 hints which
may be of benefit to seme, and cause
others to pause and consider before j
making ail their preparations for the!
new crop. 3,
We start off by making the broad
and unlimited assertion that farming
rnftv he made the most indenendent
and profitable profession in the world.
All other professions depend npon it,
and when there is a failure in crops,
the whole people suffer, for every one
depends upon the tiller of the soil for
everything they need. Of course unless
they are supplied with suitbale
seasons, no fair crop can be expected
but the great question which presents
itself, is whether we plant the right
bind of a crop, and whether it is best
to give most of our attention to the
cnltivation of cotton, or those crops
which might be used as supplies. We
know that as a general rule our soil itmore
adapted to the culture of cotton,
but it is also admirably adapted to the
cultivation of corn and grain. In our
opinion there is not that attention paid
to raising our own supplies which
should be. Farmers who have to buy
all their meat and most of their corn
for which they pay a large per cent.,
expecting to pay for it in ootton in the
fall nof t.h#? mnsf. snn.vssfnl nnos
Ill fact the greater-part of our entire
crop is owed before it is planted, to
men who supply them. Those who
supply them, or at least most of them
owe for it in Northern markets, and
the money or cotton is paid over to
them. Can our farmers expect them
to be in a prosperous condition when
such a state of things exists?
To be successful and prosperous and
to make farming a more profitable
calling, our farmers should first see
that they have in cultivation enough
corn and grain to supply their families
and their stock, after this has been done
then work as mnch cotton as Ihey
please. By this system our farmers
would be able in the fall to keep their
money in their pockets, instead of
paying it out for corn and bacon furnished
them in the spring. To us, it
wonld seem that it should be the first
duty of the farmer to see that he raises
his own supplies. Whether this can
be done or not, is a question for them
to decide according to their best judgment.
If it conld be done, and wc
think it could in the majority of cases,
with proper attention, our farmers
would be in a much more prosperous
conumon, ana an otuer proiessions
would progress in the same proportion.
We merely throw out these hints 011
the eve of beginning- a new crop, to be
laken for what they are worth.
The War la the Soudan.
The fighting in the Soudan began so
[oug ago that, in the exciting march of
events, the causes of it are apt to be
forgotten. 2sor has the general reader
my clear idea ot the extent of the field
3f operations, and of the difficulties
which beset those who campain there.
The present war in the Soudan is the
:onseauence of the attempt of E?vpt to!
reconqner Equatorial Africa. The j
Sondan is a . vast tract of Africa, |
stretching irom Egvpl on the North to j
the Nyanza lakes on the South and !
from the Iiead Sea on the East to the
western boundary of Darfar on the
West. Khartoum is" about equally
distant, that is t6 say between 1,100
and 1,200 miles, as the crow flies, from
the northern boundary of Egypt, the
Mediterranean, "and from Lake Victoria
Xyanza, the southern boundary.
The sovereignty of the Soudan was
seized by Egypt in 1819, and in ISoo
Said Pasha, the Khedive, only desisted
from obandoniug the country in deference
to the representations of the
Siieikhs and notables, who declared
that anarchy would follow. There
was a rebellion in 1S65, which was
suppressed. In 1874 Chinese Gordan
was appointed Governor-General of
the Equatorial provinces. Becoming
absolute rouler of the Soudan, he established
a system of just and equitable
government which led, after his
departure, to the revolt against the
misgovernment of the Egyptian officials.
A whole horde of Turks, Circassians
and Bashi-Bazonks were let
loose to harry the unfortunate Soudanese.
There was intense discontent.
The revolt of the Mahdi, or false
prophet, took shape in 1831, the year
that Arabi Pasha made himself dictator
in Lower Egypt. ' The fortunes'of
El Mahdi varied, but he gathered recruits
as he went along, and, in 1882,
he surrounded and massacrcd 6,000
Egyptian soldiers. When Arabi Pasha
had been smashed up by the English,,
the Khedive undertook, to reassert
Egyptian authority in the Soudan.
Abd-el-Kader was in charge of the
Egyptian forces and occasionally repulsed
the Soudanese. Hicks Pasha,
an English officer in the Egyptian ser- .
vice; took command in March, 1883,
and, after some successes, fought El
Mahdi's forces at Kashgate, where,
after three days' fighting, Hicks was
killed and his army cnt to pieces.
There were few survivors'of the illfated
11,000. All thought of suppressing
the iiahdl was abandoned. -
Thenceforth, the only discussion was
how to save Khartoum aud the East- .
e.in Soudan, which in turn gave place
to consideration of the bost means of "
abandoning them.
It was determined to evacuate the
Soudan, in which there were ten forti.
fled places occupied by Egyptian
troops, who numbered altogether 44,000
men. The difficulties iu the wayof
the evacuation became daily more
evident. Up to this time, be it remembered,
England had had nothing
to do with the Soudan, and had declined
to be in any way responsible
fnr if5; oeennation orevacuation. There
I ?? c ^ .
[ were piteous appeals for help, and
the English Government, was urged to
push forward a column from Snakim,
j on the Red Sea, to Berber, so as to
keep open the line of communication
with Khartoum. Chinese Gordon,
meanwhile, had given his views very '
freely, and in January, 1884, he was
requested by the English Government i
to proceed at once to Egypt and report :
to them on the military situation in
the Soudan, and 011 the measures
which it might be advisable to lake
for the security of the Egyptain garrisons
still holding positions in that ,
count]*}', and for the safety of the
European population in Khartoum.
This was the extent of the duty which
General Gordon cheerfully assumed. :
In Fobruary he arrived at Khartoum, ;
accompanied by a small escort, and
long afterward assured the Government
that Khartoum was rn no danger.
A British expeditionary force
-under Graham defeated the Mahdi's
lieutenant, Osman Digna, at Tokar
and Tamanieb, but went no further.
