Judge Mackey, father of Consul Beckford Mackey, received a telegram from a committee of citizens at Rio Grande Do Sul saying that the consul had been absolved unanimously by the jury, and that all honorable citizens celebrate the event. One hundred iron mms nave uccu i closed on account of the strike of the iron workers, and nearly one hundred thousand persons thrown out of em- J plovment in Pennsylvania. This almost entirely suspends the manufacture of iron near Pittsburg;. Such a state of affairs is very much to be regretted. Commissioner Black has recently discovered that there are two hundred frondnipn* nensioners on the rolls in the District of Colombia alone. If such a fraud has existed in the District what may be expected when the condition of all pensioners shall be scrutinized? Much cau be done for reform* in this direction, and it seems that the commissioner appreciates the fact fully. Pnr.nvf/l Bradley. the new ap pointed collector of internal revenue has made a clean sweep of the deputy collectors in this State. Ilis action will be approved by all good citizens of the State, for it is an undisputed fact this office has been the hot-bed of political corruption for a number of years past. ??^ The President has appointed Mr. "Wade Hampton Gibbes to be postraas ter at (JoiumDia. xms appointaieui i seems to be against the wishes of the great majority of the people of Columbia, but it is to be hoped that it will be satisfactory to all.

A Washington* correspondent to the New York Sun says that there will be more removals with the next thirty days than duriug the whote time since President Cleveland was inaugurated.

The ! confidential clerk at thesub-treasnry in I jSTew Orleans has absconded, and all! efforts to securc his arrest have been unsuccessful. The Government will loose nothing-, as ifc is amply secured , by the bond of the assistant treasurer, j Ax issue has been raised between the Civil Service Commission and Secreta- j ry Lamar on account of the latter J making a requisition upon them for a , name to make an appointment in the 1 Pension office. It seems thai a vacan- j1 cy occurred and in making appli -ttion j Secretary Lamar asked that the name i ' of an applicant from Dakota be sub- j j mittcd, as that Territory had no repre- ; I sentation. This the Commission re- ] fused to do. It is understood that the ! | decision in this case will be a precedent j j which will govern them in all other < cases. 1 Fkkdixaxd Ward, one of the Marine ) | Bank swindlers, has been indicted for 1 1 ( grand larceny. The JYezcs and Court- j! er makes the following timelv com, . ' 1 ment upon the suoject: It is one of the mysteries of the law . that it should be so easy to indict Ferdinand Ward for grand larceny, j ' and ?o hard to indict him for swind- j t ling. Many months have passed since i < the failures caused by Ward's rascality, , and it has been proved beyond controversy that he was a swindler of the i worst kind. Yet he has not been in- s dieted for fraud which, in his case, is a ( far worse offence than common stealing. The trial of Mr. CInvcrius, which ] has been going on in Richmond for < almost a month, resulted in a verdict t of guilty of murder in the first degree. A motion will be made by the defendon*'* wmnjdl n upw trial, and should this be refused the case will be 1 carried to the Supreme Court, and as ' so many exceptions have been taken to ( the admisability of testimony that it is 1 probable that a new trial will be secur- j 1 ed by the dfcudant's counsel. The 1 case has been a most interesting one, * and apparently the verdict met with * the approval of the public, <- ' ^ ?- . SECRETARY X>ATARI), 111 ail auuress ] before the St. Louis Exchange, in referring to the sectional feelins:, said: < o _ J , As one of the advisers of President J Cleveland I think I am justified in say- j ing that the Administration will make every endeavor to allay every remnant of sectional feeling in every particular. ; The Administration is for the whole ' country aud not for a part of it. Go J on without fear, embark in your en- j terprises, be at ease and everything, you may be sure, will be done to pro- j tect and' advance the interests of every citizeu of the United States. t It is to be hoped that the new Ad- ! ministration will be the great iustru- ] j ment in forever burying every reni! nant of sectional feeling-, and that the ! past will be forgotten. J I m m The following was a remark made : by a well known member of Congress i j to a reporter of the New York Herald ' | a few days ago: It may be all fair, but I doubt it very in raot??vr> tr> these examinations ( of cadets at West Point and the Naval i Academy. I have noticed for years ( that two-th;rds of the successful cadets, as a rule, are the sons of army or naval 1 officers. The bright boys of which so much mention is made in the r.ewspa- i pers when they succeed in winning a . nomination to either of these places in strict competitive examinations, never seem to get along as well after thcv are admitted as do the sons or nephews 1 of army or naval officers. I conld < name ten boys who have failed, who : are much smarter than some boys who have passed. Not one boy in ten who is appointed to either of these places by Congressmen ever get in the army 01 navy, while one boy out of every ! two or three who is appointed at large generally gets in. I have known a number of Congressmen to grumble about it, for their experience has been 1 the same as mine, but no oiks seems ! willing to make a fight ou either of these places aud show up exactly how they are run and who runs them. Is there no room for investigation in this direction? mt ? i Mr. A. T. Howard, collector of j customs at Portsmouth, N. H., has tendered his resignation to the Secretary of the Treasury. He has been in : office since 1873, uut consistency com: pels him to resign as the following ! statement from him will show: ! I have also during all that time been a zealous member of the Republican , j party, and have in every way possible' contributed lo its success. Consej quently my "offensive partisanship" i i can be established by many witnesses. ( For twenty years I have also been a firm believer in the old Jacksonian : doctrine?"To 1 he victors belong the ] spoils." Consistency, therefore, com- : pels me firmly to adhere to these pr:nI ciples and convictions in defeat as well . j as in victory, me uepuoacari pan. v | having: been defeated at the polls in j November, and the Democratic Ad- J ministration being now firmly estab- ( j lished, the offices and patronage of , right belong to those who have waited ! for months for the moving of the i political waters, which thus far do not seem to move. In my judgment the , j "hungry and thirsty" (to use a com- ' | mon phrase) should no longer be de| prived of-the fruits of their victory. I . t therefore quit and deliver up the office, , I which I have held for nearly twelve years." , The alleged regret of Secretary ! Bayard in leaving the Senate is still a j subject of comment by a number of journals, and we believe with but little foundation. The latest is from the , New York World, which will not be ; taken for much, as it never looses an < opportunity of disparaging the Secretary. It says: His intimate friends are very much < worried about him. He looks ten ( years older to-day than when he first i wpnf- into the State denartment. Ke i is as-eriously disappointed and unhappy man. He has become strangely absent- ( minded. He forgets often when he 1 has made a decision. In several in- < stances lately he ha? promised the same ] office to two different people. The trials of his new position have been too much for him. In the Senate bis 1 life was of the easiest. His constitn- 1 encv was a verv small one. His mail 1 was very light. The only labor he had . to perform was the preparation of an occasional speech. His record was a 1 singularly simple one and through the ' force of simply remaining in one position for a long time bs acquired a reputation. It now appears that he is not a man of executive ability and that he has 110 capacity for the management 1 of affairs. To suddenly step from an j atmosphere of general praise into the ( thunderstorm of universal criticism has been too much for him. ' Ex-Sexator McDonald has been ] spending some time in Washington, ] and is stated to have had as good op- 1 portunities of obtaining the President's 1 views on all questions of public im- 1 momKovp nf VilC PqKL / y\JLtto nits \s*. \yuui- y net. In an interview with a Washing- s ton correspondent he spoke very freely < of the tariff and what steps snouia oe i taken to relieve the public of this bur- i den some taxation. He says: < We would have "a tariff reform { which shall secure for our manutac- , urers raw material at a cheaper rate; i i reciprocity treaty with foreign j countries, or these two instrumentali :ies combined. A tariff ought to be a ! lax highest on luxuries and lowest on j necessaries. The policy which I be- j ieve the present Administration will ! mdeavor to formulate will be to make he necessaries of life and raw material :hcap, so as to lessen the cost of living svhile providing labor for our workof tli<> COmA titrifi ft ! revenue for the Government. This is ! he sum and substance of the tariff i gospel of the Democratic party." This should be the key-note of tariff i reform. The question will doubtless jo discussed at the next session of| Congress, and the advocates of a tariff reform should make an energetic effort ;o accomplish some reformation and .o relieve the people of the taxation )y making the tax highest onnticles of luxurv and lowest ipon necessaries. This should :ertainly not be objectionable to those ivho so bitterly opposed a horizontal eduction in the bill offered by Mr. Morrison, of Illinois. Some reduction ;an be made which will be a benefit to ;he entire country. w ? The Board of Trustees and Board of Visitors after thorough examination 3nd the condition of the South Carolina College everything that could he lesired. President McBryde, after a few introductory remarks when the students had assembled in the chapel :o hear the address of the Rev. Ellison papers, introduced Senator Hampton, ;he Chairman of the Board, who thus impressed himself relative to the condition of the College and its future prospects-: After our examination here the other Jay of the condition of-the College, and [ lieed not say it was a very thorough md exhaustive one, the Board of Visitors were so surprised and gratified at the exhibit made by the College ana its students, that they felt it due to you ind the public to let the facts which they ascertained become known. They isked, therefore, the Rev. Dr. Capers to remain over and state to you the result of their examination- *1 know that thcv will endorse thoroughly what be will say to you. For myself I will say that as long as I have been connected with ?t and earnest as have been miT hArioe fni> its enrrrpss. T helirve that 14V l,v/^v" ?- ?? - it has never been in better condition than it is now. [Applause.] And I must in justice say that very much of the credit of this is due to you, for the president and all the professors, and Mayor Rhett endorse the statement and say that never has a better set of young meu been within the "walls'of the institution. The Rev. Dr. Capers made an elonnflnf nf fhf> CnPP.OSS of thft ? College and told the students that their conduct-was everything that could be clesired. It is certainly gratifying to know that under so many difficulties the university is progressing successfully. The following is an interesting sketch of the character and personal appearance of Miss Ann Pamela Cunningham, of South Carolina, the founder and first regent of the Ladies' Mount Vernon Association: The State of South Carolina has J J A 1111 ruereu n puruuit tuc laiu xujoo rxiui Pamela Cunningham, the inspiration, the founder and the first regent of the Ladies' Mount Vernon Association, as a memorial of her, to be placed in the main entrance hall at Mount Vernon. It will be executed in Charleston by Mr. Stolle, formerly of Dresden, the popular artist there. There is a portrait of Miss Cunningham, painted from life by Lambdin, of Philadelphia, fifteen years ago, to be seen in the Georgia room at the home of Washington, where it hangs over the mantelpiece. It was done by order of the Association. The subject was po<*sessed of a brtlliant intellect, and was born at her ancestral home. Rosemonte, Laurens conntv, South Carolina, in 1816, and died there in 187-5. She was the only daughter of Captain Robert Cunningham of the Tory family of that name, but who equipped a company and took an active part in the war of 1812. Her mother was Louisa Bird, the third daughter of Colonel William Riivl r>f P?ip^5hnrnno-h_ Pennsylvania. one of whose sisters married a son of Judge George Ross, a signer of the Declaration, and another Judge Wilson, Chief Justice and a signer of the Declaration, also of that State. She had been an invalid for forty years previous to her death, spending fifteen winters of that time, prior to 1862, in Philadelphia under the medical care of the late Dr. Hodge, and the summers of that period at (Jape May, always accompanied by her mother, where he made her regular professional visits. She was a favorite patient of his, and he had a p-reat admiration for her ex alted character, as his numerous letters to her testify She was below medium height, petite and dainty, with a wellmoulded figure and beautiful hands and feet, was blonde and naturally active; had chestnut hair, mixed with much red, having ?ne auburn tints; large blue eyes, a firm but sensitive mouth, and altogether an exceedingly mobile face. Her head was large, with a broad and high forehead. She was full of purpose in her ways, and it?oo ?ncfin/?f in vf?nnlcmn tn onv thing gross, trivial or vulgar. She has a. rcputatiou such as no other American womau has ever acquired, and the United States have to thank her for making Mount Vernon, as it is,' the national Mecca. Massachusetts should vote a portrait to Edward Everett as a companion piece to hers. He acted under her inspiration and produced and gave his eloquent lecture on Washington to the cause, and turned Dver to the Association one-fourth of the amount raised to rescue the home and grave of the Father of his country from oblivion. The noble efforts of this lady will jver be a subject of just pride for all [he people of the Palmetto State. She beguu a work?noble in itself?one which has attracted the attention, and receives the support and efforts of 5 T VI J V1IW* PICS1C JlT watjsree. 3fessrs. Editors: We had the pleasare on Friday, the 29th nit., of being present at a delightful picnic given to he pupils of the Wateree School, presided over by the very worthy and jfficient teacher, Mrs. E. J. Powell. [n company with our young friend Mc., we left the Boro early in the norning, and after traveling over the illls leading to "Waterec church, (which 5y the way we found in excellent conlition, far better than we haye ever seen them,) we reached the beautiful jrove ot' oaks just beyond the church, inhere we found assembled the young, mddle aged and aged in groups, disjussing the crop prospects, political iopics and, of course, educational matters. "We had not been there long before we heard it whispered around that the crowd would be addressed by certain ones. Oh, how we wished tor our young friends of the Boro, who are accustomed to public speaking, and who are certainly fonder of displaying their oratorical powers than the writer; but, alas, they were absent, and the old maxim catne to mind. von want to make a coward fight, all you have to do is to pen him". While thinking of the difficult task before us, we were taken by the arm by our worthy trustee, Mr. B., and, nolens vulens, escorted to a stand erected for the occasion. With palpitating heart we ascended the rostrum and spoke to the audience on the importance and necessity of allowing no opportunity to pass to give the children oil nrlfonf'-wrr* (-?f nil Arlnofltmil ?n order that they might in after years be prepared to discharge the duties which would necessarily devolve upon them. A few words to the children, and we took great pleasure in introducing Mr. Mc., who for some time entertained the crowd. The speaking over with, Mr. W., anticipating our wants, made his appearance, armed and equipped with a hiiflcpt nt rlolio-hffnl Ifnnnn.idp. whi^h ?-a 1 ? tou may rest assured was quailed with a relish by friend Me. and the writer. This prepared us for the most important part of the programme. The table groaned under the weight of'the many nice things which the ladies in that section know so well how to prepare, and which were enjoyed hugely by all present, but especially by the writer. Dinner over, threatening clouds loomed up in the distance and collected so rapidly that we scarcely had time to reach the house of Mr. B. before the vo?r? rlr?\vi> 111 tnrrmits. Tf\ cmcoH after a while and we were found re? tracing our steps towards the Boro, thence homewards, which we reached in due time. c. DESOLATION IN CASHMERE. An Earthquake Devastates the Beautiful Vale?F?arful Destruction in the City of Serlnajjur. A dispatch from Serinagur, or Cashmere, India, says that city was visited by a frightful earthquake on Sunday last. The shocks, which occurred at intervals of ten minutes, were of great violence. The greater part of the citv was destroved and the cavalrv barracks are a mass of rains. Fifty persons are known to have been killed and hundreds of injured have already been taken from the general wreck. When the shocks were first felt and the people realized that they were being subjected to the awftil possibilities of an earthquake the wildest panic seized them. Everyone able to do so rushed from the tumbling houses and fled to boats on the river and on lakes or sought the open country. The terrified inhabitants camped in the fields that surround the town. Seriuagur is near tho centre of the Vale of Cashmere, and that whole territory experienced terrible earthquake shocks. The city has a, population ot 51,000, and the district of 182,000.. The damage caused throughout th e vale is very gieat. Tho loss in catt'ie is enormous. The atfVighted people seemed to be utterly helple&st - and succor was sent them as rapidly the ludian authorities could organize relief. Many of the houses yet standing show large rents in the walls ar.d most be razed to the ground. It is a Pleasure to Attack Cha.rity!

These resolu. tions have been sent to the President with the assurance that the orffauiz ation wiil use every effort to support him in his administration.
