McDOSAZD. j The Congressional apportionment bill! was passed over the Governor's veto in the Pennsylvania Senate on the 10th inst. by a vote of 100 to 34. The estate of C. T. Howard, who was for a number of years president of the Louisiana Lottery, is valued at nearly 810,000,000. The trial of Mr. Emanuel, in Lancaster, for the killing of a Mr. Cnrtis in one of the hotels some time ago resulted in an acqnittal. The verdict was approved by the majority of the people, as it was generally believed that the deceased did- some shooting and that he was killed in self-defense. Extensive preparation are being made in Philadelphia for the erection of a Catholic College in the interest of vonng men seeking a thorough classical and scientific education. Only a few months ago a site was selected for the erection of a similar college in Washington. The Eastern Insane Asylum at "Williamsburg. Va., was burned on the 8th iust. Out of two hundred female inmates only one life was lost, aud this unfortunate one wandered away from the building and was drowned in a creek near by. The loss to the building "and property amounts to nearly $150,000. The publishers of Miss Cleveland's book, which will appear in the course of ten days, are confident that the author has nothing to fear as far as the circulation ot the book is concerned. The London Times has already telegraphed for advance sheet?, and the prospects are bright for a good circulation, both in this couutry aud England. ? ? <?a- * 5>OME extracts lruut vxcii. uiaut a history of the war have been sent to the press for publication. Judging from them bis book will be an intertaining one, and will doubtless be read with interest, not only by Northerners but by men of the South, who would enjoy reading an account of the bloody war from the pen of the commander of the victorious forces. The trial of Ferguson who killed Benedict in Abbeville last winter will take place this week. This trial attracted considerable attention at the last term of Court when a mistrial was made. An effort mas made by his counsel to have the case continued antil next term but -Judge Cothr&n refused the motion and it will go on, with what result it is hard to say. of's^e^crimn^a]s^^ 'i'he act' provides that after its passage the entire control of the convicts shall be under the direction of the penitentiary commissioners, and the labor of convicts shall be confined to such work as may be required by the State. A good step in the right directiou. A Washington correspondent says the President has not receded from his position in the least in regard to ttoe removal of the chiefs of divisions in the departments. He expects to adhere strictly to the civil service rules, and wK*n men are competent -and deserving the fact thtt they belong to rs.y other party will not remove tbem. No departure from this principle will be made. . The following will be of interest to persons seeking office in the Government, as it was a reply sent from the White House in answer to a commnnication as to the best mode of securing an appointment: To secure atteniiou to an application for appointment a particrlar posi^ l-? -i u i? 1x7u , tiuii suouiu uf uaujcci. it ueu tuta is done the papers are filed the proper department, and when the matter of appointment is to be determined the names of candidates andbriets of their endorsements are laid before the President by the head of the department. Among the nnmber of appointments made by the President on the 8th inst. was E. M. Boykin, to be United States Marshall for the District of Sor.th Carolina. Major Boykin was the ca iens nominee of the South Carolina Congressmen. His appointmeut will give entire satisfaction to the people of the State, and at the same time it is a just recognition of the young Democracy of the Slate. Major Boykin, although a man of only thirty-three years of age, has been ck>sely identified -with the. Democratic party, and has done good service for his State and the best interests of his party. The failure of the liberal ministry on the spirits tax in the House of Commons on the Sth inst., aud its rejection by a vote of 263 to 252, caused considerable excitement when an 1 . 1L. li - f f-11 _ ,1 - i ?_ >s*. nouuceu. jls tue reauti ui uriausiuue s defeat it has been rumored tbat he will ~~vrs&the Queen and tender-Ms resignation. T&eJ9ci?y NetoSy speaking editorially of the consequences of the vote, says: It is impossible to forecast the consequences of the vote. The ministry -will probably resign and the opposition take possession of the Government. We do not suppose that even Conservative leaders will seek to undo what has been done on the Afghan question. The whole nolicv of the country is thrown into momentary?we hope it may not be lasting?confusion. Now that the excitement over the "Morgan incident" has about subsided, it may be safe to remark that we think the severe strictures upon Capt. F. W. j Dawson were entirely uncalled for. j The Morgan case is one of the many j cases of a difference of opinion. Many j people?ourselves in the number?' think that Mr. Morgan ought not to have received the appointment. Other people, among them Senators Hamp ton and isatler ana secretary isayara \ (all good Democrats, we understand), think otherwise. The latter opinion was accepted and enforced. At all events, there has been about enough said on the subject. Some of the news- j paper comments on Captain Dawson have smacked very strongly of personal animosity, and have in this way lost well-nigh all their forcc. The Illinois Republicans have nominated Judge Foraker for the Governorship. The following paragraph is taken from their platform: That the elevation of important and honorable offices of the Government of unrepentant Rebels where their political disabilities have not been removed is a iiagiaub vivmuuii vi iug wuouvutioa and an insult to (be loyal people of the whole eonntry, and we denounce the Administrtion of President Cleveland for its genera! discrimination in appointments so far made against Union soldiers and in favor of men who fought against the Union. It is hardly uecessary to comment upon such a plank, if it may be so styled. The President is making appointments which meet the approval of all right thinking men. It makes no difference whatever from what section they come. A representation of the Colored Teachers' Association of Alabama has made complaint to the Railroad Commisssion of Alabama that the railroads do not furnish as good accommodations to the colored people for the same money as they do white people. They do not claim or desire an intermixture of the races, but simply ask that when a first class ticket is bought by a colored person it should furnish him as good accommodations as a first class ticket held by a white citizcn. The Commission said they recognized the justice of the complaint, and would take steps to impress upon the railroads the iustice in giving equal accommoda tions to all for the same money. To accomplish this it would not be necessary to intermix them, but separate cars might be provided for the different races. Brother Hestphill, of the Abbeville Medium, although not a farmer, is giving the farmers of his county some pretty sound advice, which i: taken will certainly result beneficially. He says: The season is not too far advanced for our farmers to put in more corn. The only way out of our troubles is to raise our own supplies. When this becomes the general practice we will have prosperity, and not before. Every foot of bottom laud that can be properly cultivated should be put iu corn, peas aud pumpkins. This will keep the stock in good condition ana save the tronble of coming to town, losing day after day from necessary work. The land now in grain should be pat in corn and peas as soon as the crop is removed. So every foot of land will make some return and our people will begin to look ap. This course is more necessary because the lien law may possiblybe repealed next winter. If so, and our warning is not heeded, the people will be in a wretched condition. There is ample time to prepare for the change. It 13 a shame for a man who pretends to be a farmer to buy his '"tviaaip 001*13- GTS?' handles, molasses and clothing." Gladstone's Defeat. For some time past a bitter contest Hoc Kaon In nmorross in Ha Iween the Liberals and the Conservatives, which resulted iu the defeat of the Liberals, with Mr. Gladstone as their leader, on the 8th inst. As a means of raising a sufficient revenue for the expenses of the government the Liberal ministry proposed to increase the dnty on spirits, and therebv raise the fnnds necessitated by the war the Soudan and the recent troubles in Afghanistan. The proposed plan failed to commend itself favorably to the Conservative?, and when it came to a test Gladstone was defeated by a vote of 263 to 252. The defeat of the government was a great sarprise. No one doubted for a moment but that the opposition wonld make a fight against the iucrease tax, but that the government would fce defeated was not entertained for one moment. The downfall was probably the result of over-confid ence on the part of the Liberals and underrating the strength of their opponents. At a meeting of the Cabinet after the announcement of the vote it was decided that it was not expedient f/?r fKo T .1 IxomId </?Antinna ?\att7A*? *Vi vuv AJll/VI UiJ IV VVWliHU^ .u If ; and consequently their resignation was tendered to the Queen. This will necessitate the formation of a new Cabinet should Mr. Gladstone in reality retire. The Conservatives must assume control of the government at this critical period. The Standard in an editorial says, ''The Conservatives are bound fo accept the duty of government, although statesmen have seldom been faced with so uninviting a task." There is no man in England the equal of Gladstone as a statesman, and it is not probable that he will remain out of power long. The Neics says: The future of the present moment is a stepping-stone to long success. Gladstone will be again returned to power by an overwhelming wave of popular enthusiasm. The Government was defeated by negligence or the indifference of nominal adherents. No one can tell what will be the result of Gladstone's defeat in the House. The government seems unsettled, and it may be the beginning of changes which will result in a political revolution. PaaaIa va rawi? hi nniniAw Mr. Hay, First Assistant Postmaster General, is convinced that the people should select their officers and not their representatives. He says: I am entirely ignorant of any law or correct principle which directs that the department must at all conform to the dictation of a Senator or any number of Senators in appointments to office. If the fact should come to my knowledge that a majority of the patroas of a postoffice should unequivocally express their desire for the appointment of a postmaster who was "by political faith opposed to the Administration, but was thoroughly fitted for the place, I would appoint him, notwithstanding the recommendation of the State Legislature or of any possible number of Congressmen for the seleciion of a man not thus locally acceptable and sup ported. This is sensible talk, and his coarse will meet the hearty approval of our people, while at the same time it tfill be unwelcome news to the ring politi-! cians. For some time, and with the I great majority of Congressmen, (we ; do not speak particularly of our own i members) it has been claimed that by j virtue Of their office they snail nave the power of designating who shall be j the fortunate appointees in the different districts. They of course have their pets, and have little difficulty in securing a good number of endorsers. The theory that the number or class of endorsers indicate fitness has long since } been exploded, for in this day of busi- j ness and rush men sign petitions which ' in a number of instances they do not know or care what they contaiu. Of course our members of Congress arc in a better position to influence the appointing power in the selection of candidates and their recommendation should have great force, but where it conflicts with the direct wishes of the people most interested, it should be second in influence, as the people are j in a position to better jndge.the fitness or qualification of a candidate, and should have the right of selecting their own officers. As Mr. Hay says there is no law or correct principle which directs that the department should be governed at ali times by the wishes or! desires' of Congressmen, and there should not be, for we are assured that they are simply the representatives of the people and have no right or power to act contrary to the wishes of the! majority of the people at least in the j selection of their own office-holders, j Mr. Hay's declaration will strike a i responsive chord in the hearts of the people and he will be supported in his position by a rast majority of the citizens who desire competent officeholders to fii' the offices made vacant by the removal of Republicans. The Tariff Again. A Washington correspondent of the New York Worid says: Following upon the report of the Greystone conference about silver comes the report, emanating1 from a j trustworthy source, that another con- j ference will soon be held of leading i Democrats holding different views of the tariff question with the purpose of' anticipating the difcussion in Congress j of all tariff matters. The tariff question is bonnd to be discussed and the ; Democrats cannot avoid having a lead-1 ing policy about it. The conference will bo held 111 the hope ot inducing j the Randall men and the Carlisle men I to forsake some positions heretofore held by them. It is difficult to see how a compromise 011 the tariff' canresult in a satisfactory way to the tariff reformers. Any compromise gratifying to Mr. Randall will be comforting to the Republican protectionists. There is little doubt but that the tariff question will be again discussed at the next session of Congress, and that some reformation is needed we cannot for a moment question. How this can be done with almost a unanimous opposition from the Republican party, and a good number of protectinniefr TVmrvrrafs- Is a nnestion which cannofbe too froplv /IkonssRd before i the meeting of Congress. To frame a bill which will meet the approval of the opponents of the Morrison bill two years ago will be no easy matter. Randall, with his followers, will, we presnme, oppose any bill similar to the one introduced by Morrison, and the only way which presents itself to our mind will be a compromise bill?one which will meet the approval of the adrocates of a protection foi revenue oaly, and at the same time .ommend itself to the Protectionist Democrats and a few stragglers from the Republican fold. If snch a compromise could be made by a conference of leading Democrats, and a line of action decided upon for guidance at the next session, certainly it would result beneCwQllir fn flii* nriAnlo 1IV1U11J l/V vt IV But we fear this is expecting too much, as a leading exchange says Randall "is in favor of any revision of the tariff, except such revision as may be imminent, actually proposed or practicable. He is always in favor of some other sort of revision than that which is under discussion." If the rumor of a conference is true the result of it will be awaited with interest, as the people are anxious that the representatives of our government should take some decided action in removing a form of taxation which has never done what was promised by its advocates. The Charleston Collectorship. The fight over the Charleston Collectorship has recently come to be a personal controversy between Mayor Wm. A. Courtenay and Congressman Samuel Dibble, inaugurated by the former. On the 28th May Mr. Courtenay, as Mayor of Charleston, sent to Col. Lamont, President Cleveland's Private Secretary, a telegram, reqaesting him "to say to the President that Congressman Dibble has attempted to impose upon him by the grossest deception in the Mowry Collector?hip case". This message was filed in the Treasury Department, and was there seen by Mr. Dibble. In reply to the charge made by ci. i n:i,ui? l t..?4 I Jdft/ur v/uux iciiu\f iur. uiuuiv itu ju&i/ j published a long letter in which be j undertakes to show that Mayor Courtenay has in turn advocated for the Collectorship Messrs. A. H. Howry, L. J. Walker and B. R. Riordan. Mr. Courtenay admits a change from Mr. | Mowrv to Mr. Walker, giving as his j reason that after signing Mr. Mowry's | paper he discovered certain facts con-1 cerning Mr. Mowry's business record, I which led to a change of views. The paper from which Mr. Dibble concludes that Mayor Courtenay advocated Mr. Riordan is a telegram dated 20th May, addressed to the President, to the effect tnat as Mr. Riordaifs name was under consideration for "an honorable appointment", the Mayor took pleasure in attestiug his fitness for "any position to which he may be assigned, at j home or abroad". The Weics and Courier says that this telegram had reference to some foreign appointment, and not to the Collectorship. In answer to Mayor Conrtenay's charge of deception practised upon the President, Mr. Dibble publishes a written statement previously fiJed with the Secretary of the Treasury, which, Mr. Dibble says, is the onlv representation he has undertaken to tnake in" reference to the Collectorship. This statement sets out that Mr. Mowrv has strong financial as well as political support in Charleston? each being quite as strong as Mr. Walker's; that the "section" of the Charleston Democracy to which Mr. Walker belongs has received recognition in the appointment of Mr. B. F. Huger as postmaster, while the "section" to which Mr. Mowry belongs has not yet been so recognized; that Mr. Mowry has always been an earnest worker for the party, the firm of which he was a member having, in 1S77, shown great liberality in furnishing financial aid to the Hampton Government at a time of very great need; and that the charges brought against Mr. Mowry's personal character and business inte<rritv. are found, after ariose investigation, to ' ^ ^ ' be entirely nnsuslained by the evidence adduced. Mr. Dibble lurther says that he would have taken no part in the contest for the Colleclorship, except that -the business community were divided, and, when he found thart to be the case, be lent his influence for the persou whose appointment "Jie thought best under all the circumstances. Mr. Dibble's article is a long one, and shows cvideuce of great care in its preparation. It appears to us to acquit him fully of any charge of improper conduct in connection with the controversy over the Collectorship. Some of the papers?notabiy the Greenville News and the Abbeville Press and Banner?have very severely criticised him for his card of the oth June, in which he alluded to Mayor Courtenav as "this champion defamer"?in referring to Mr. Courteaay's letter to Col. Lamont. We have no part in the personal controversy between Messrs. Courtenav and Dibble. But it ought, in simple justice to the latter, to be remembered that he was charged by Mayor Courtenay with having "atfpmnfpfl to irnnnsn nnon the President by the grossest deception". To this charge Mr. Dibble was bound to reply. In that reply, whether in his card or in his ampler statement, we cannot see that he has used terras any harsher than those employed by Mayor Courlenay in his inauguration of the controversy. The Collectorship muddle grows worse day by day. It is now said that the President has intimated that as the faclions seem unable to agree upon anybody, he will let the incumbent Johnston serve out his term. This is all wrong. Johnston is an unworthy and obnoxious Radical politician, who should be made to quit at once. The President's alleged embarrassment would be ended and the Democrats in this State be srratified bv the aDDoint meat of Gen. John D. Kennedy, whose capacity for the position cannot, be qnestioned. His arduous and^ble services to the State ought nqg?gi| forgotten?unless, a$^T'bomet2im& appears, those who have done the hardest work are to be ignored, to make place for others who were at best mere sluggards in times of greatest need. Gen. Kennedy's non-residence in Charleston matters not at all. The majority of the Collectors of the port have been taken from other portions of the State. The selection of a non-resident in the present instance is rendered especially proper by the wrangle going on between the Walker and Mowrv factions in Charleston. N THE RAILROAD TO SKELTOX. Messi's. Editors: Would it not be well to agitate the construction of a railroad from this point to Shelton? We need just such an enterprise. I can see no reason why it would not pay. It certainly would intersect the best point and open up a field from which we could reasonably expect a gain. It certainly wonld course its way through the be>t section ot the county and turn the channel of commerce to this point, which is now almost entirely lost to us. We need just such an outlet, and I would like to see the subject discussed. It can do no harm to agitate it; good may grow out of it. Anything that will tend to develop the hidden resources of old Fairfield should be cultivated, and I believe this will tend in that direction. At any rate let us hear from others interested and see if we cannot pnt in motion a ball that will culminate in success. W. W. Ketcein. An Opportunity for a Fortune Los.

As a Ladies' Hair Dressing, the j Vigor is unequalled; it contains neither oil ; nor dye, renders the hair soft, glossy, and ' silken in appearance, and imparts a delicate, j agreeable, and lasting perfume. Mr. C. P. Bricher writes from Kirby, 0.. j July 3, 1882: " Last fall my hair commenced j falling oat, and in a short time I became nearly bald. I used part of a bottle of ! Ayer's Hair Vigor, which stopped the falling of the hair, 3nd started a new growth. I ! have now a foil head of bair growing vigor- !

Mrs. 0. A. prescott, writing from 18 Elm j St., Charfcstoicn, Mass., April 14, 1882, says: j " Two years ago about two-thirds of my hair j came off. It thinned very rapidly, and I was fast growing bald. On using Ayer's Hair i Vigor the falling stopped and a new growth commenced, and in about a month my head was completely covered with short hair. It has continued to grow, and is now as good as before it fell. I regularly used but one bottle of the Vigor, but now use it occasionally as a dressing."
