vS*IX>*SBORa, S. G. ' J wednesday, december 23. : ? *88*. t'j . T * .'XO. S. IiETVOLVS, ) y ?B;tok8. W. L. XcDOSJJ.D. ) The State Senate, by a vote of 17 to 16, have decided not to disturb free tuition in the South Carolina College. As will be seen the vote was very close. Seventeen new lawyers were ushered into the State by the Supreme Court 011 Wednesday last?fifteen | Whites and two colored. They still come at the rate of almost forty a year, Judge McKat, of the United States Court, has decided the Atlanta whiskey fight. It is a prohibition victory. He had formerly granted a temporary in janction to the anti-prohibitionists, but refuses lo continue the injunction. Atlanta will, therefore, be a "dry town" for some time. The Hon. "VV. R. Perry will accept our thanks for a number of Congressional document*. Among them we find a recently bound volume of speeches on the life and services of the late Hon. J. H. Evins,a former Representative of this Congressional district. They were printed by order of Congress. The following is a description of the new seal furnishtd the President. It is for the exclusive use of the Chief Magistrate: A new official seal has been engraved for the President., Its emblematic significance makes it worthy of description, independent of the mere that it is for the use of the Chief Magistrate. The central figure, standng ont in bold relief, is the American spread (or, as it is sometimes called, ascending) eagle, which king of birds was chosen as onr national emblem because its attributes are so closely analogous to the characteristics of our nation. The thirteen original States, the foundation of the Union, are represented by thirteen feathers in etch wing of the eagle; thirteen leaves on a laurel branch and thirteen arrows held in its talons, thirteen bars in a shield on its breast, thirteen star* between its winge and thirteen letters in the motto, "E Pluribus UnumH' on a scroll carried upward in its beak. Twenty-fire rays of the sun and eleven small clonds, forming an arc above the tars, donate respectively the States admitted subsequent to the union of thirteen colonies, and the territorial possessions, inclnding the Indian Territory, Alaska and District of Columbia, which have not attained the dig nity of Statehood. This is the first time all the States and territories have been symbolized in the desigu of a seal. In the title, "The seal of the President of the United States," encircliug the emblem?, the words "President of' are at the top and over them, thereby signifying the relations he bears to the bodies constituting the Union. The border is of many fine beads closely connected, suggesting the motto, "In union there is strength.' Ken. Toombs Dead. For some time the death of this distinguished statesman has been looked for and now as the end has came it. affects the heart of every citizen of his native State and the entire South with the profoundest regret.'" He was at the time of his death about sixty-six vears old, and perhaps no j man of the South has been more prom ising before the people (ban this illustrious man. He was one of a few who refused to aceept a pardon from the Federal Government for his action in the Confederacy. He believed he was right and had the courage to maintain his convictions to the end. He was perhaps the greatest Georgia statesman, having measured lances with the greatest statesmen and without discredit to him. He was an orator of great force, and his eloquence was Leard in nearly every hamlet and village in hi* native State, winch he loved so well. lu his death Georgia has lost an able statesman and the South a devoted friend. Let his ashes rest in peace. His name will shii?e as one of the brightest, stars upon the pages of American history. The Priority Lien BUI. The bill repealing the present lien law in toto failed to pass the Senate, but the bill giving certain prior liens passed and will become a law, A* it now reads the law give* to tlw land* lord a prior lieu over all otinT panic*, and the second lieu is given to the tenant or laborer. TbU will, thorefnrp. leave the merchant to take a third lien for supplies advauced. Under the law it will not be necessary for the landlord or laborer to have his lien indexed, bat by virtue of the contract the landlord shall have the first and the laborer t he second lien. The passage of this law cannot materially affect the lien for supplies, as the merchant ckn compel the landlord to waive his first lien before he will supply anybody. While the law upon its face gives the land-owner the prior lien, wc think it a doubtful question whether it will materially aid the landlord, for unless he is able to command a credit outside of the lien he will be compelled to waive his right under the law in order to secure this, which will necessarily give to the merchaut tne nrst lien ior ms advances. ic would seem that the Senate felt that some action should be taken ou the present law, but that repealing it altogether would be almost too nuh a measure, so they simply passed the present law, we presume, as a stepping-stone to further legislation on the subject. Oar Trial Justices Salaried. As will be seen fro'u the communication of one q? our Eepresentatives, found in another column "of this issue, s. there will be some changes in the trial jastiee system of tbe county early next year. Our countv, as well as others of the State, has long felt that some change iu the present system of administering justice in smaller cases was necessary for the best interests of the county. At present there are thirteen trial justices in the county having concurrent jurisdiction, and in many instances parties come from the remotest corner of the couuty to have their differences settled before the trial justices in town. The bill recently passed by will of oQarso. becpme a law, provides | that the countv be divided into seven | : . . . . i judicial districts, anc| tnat one triai justice be appointed for each district with exclusive jurisdiction over all cases occurring in the district. The town will have only one trial justice, who will receive a salary of $250. Those in the county will receive a salary of $200, and each justice will nave a constable to be paid a ?alary oi $150. As will be seen the delegation will act as a unit and will introduce a system of civil service, the object of which will be have the best men who desire it in each district appointed to the office?. We believe that the new order of things will be beneficial to all parties and will carry out the great idea underlying the trial justice system?to bring justice to each man's door. No one can possibly object to the method of appointment which has been adopted by the delegation, as it will be absolutely fair aud impartial to all applicants. The President's HesMge. Contrary to the expressed opinions ! of a number o? sational politicians the first annual message of the President was a lengthy document, consuming a little more than two hours in beiug read in the halis of Congress. Perhaps no message has been looked for-1 ward to with more universal interest thau the one recently delivered to Congress by the President. Aa the head of a Democratic Administration it became his duty to discuss questions of national interest and importance and upon which his party was considerably divided in opinion. From the beginning to its close it shows a broad comprehensive knowledge of governmental machinery in all its depart- j ments, and a general familiarity with j tl?e routine of executive duty iu its varied brauche?. Ills comments upon our foreign relations show that the honor and dignity of our nation will be preserved at all times, realizing the great fact that mutual intercourse between onr nation and foreign countries will result in great good to es.ch. J Tbe question of taxation, in which the whole people are interested, is discussed at length, and the fact made to appear that our revenues are greatly in excess of the- actual needs of an economic administration, and that it should not be the case in a government of the people allied for muml benefit and protection. A reduction in the present tariff is advised as a suitable remedy for the fast increasing revenue, and while his position on this important question is not in accordance with the views of a number of politicians it is at least a safe one and a step in the right direction. Of course the reduction is recommended from the revenue derived from the tax upon imported necessaries of life, used in common by all classes and conditions of men. . The Act by which the Government ts compelled to win more than two millions of salver per month is an important question and should claim the attention of the national law-makers. The message urges some action, as out of the two hnudred and fifteen millions already corned only about fifty millions are in circulation, the remainder being left in the possession of the Government at a grent expense. Un der the present law two millions of gold in the pnblic treasury is paid out monthly for silver bullion, to be coined and added to the immense sum already ; accumulated. The message deplores the condition of our navy and the alter, tiou of Congress is called to its weakness as a j means of protection and defei.se. Such circumstances necessitates a compara lively weak foreign policy and places the. country at a disadvantage in all dealings with otiier powers. The hope is expressed that the day is not far distant when oar navy will be such as Ivfits onr sfandincr amonc the nations of the earth, and steps looking to such consumation is urged upon Congress. His original position on civil service reform remain* unchanged, and the great fact i? urged that the public service ?h'>u!d not be di-turbed ?>n account of political changes, and that public servants should not. live in dread of a change pai tie* in power, j Competency and qualification should be the onlv criterion for appointment to public service. The position laid down in his inaugural address is j strictly adhered to. that office j is a public trust," and that the true ! state-man ri*es ?bove petty partisan- j ship and governs his action by what i he believes to be right and just lor the whole people. The entire massage is pronounced by the leading dailies of both parties as one of the ablest documents ever presented to an American Congress, and that its author rises above party and j partv interests, and is truly the Chief j Magistrate of the people. LETTER FROM ARK AX S AS. Messrs. Editors: Since I wrote you last quite a change has come over this part of the moral vineyard. It was summer then and very dull, the chief work of the occupant9 of the "City of Pine" then was to brush away the dust which is simply fearful here in a dry season, and to defend one's self against the continuous attacks of gnats, flies j and mosquitoes, aiKi at the same time j try to keep cool. Now everything is in a rush from davlisrht in the morning until Jate at nigfct, and all night long the ringing of bells and the blowincr r?f #vnorinPK 011 the boats, and 5n- ! coming and out-going trains, as well! as the continuous clatter of machinery j is beard. This is the leading cotton j market in the State, and is fast taking ' theJead in every other respect. Farm- j ers living sixty and seventy miles i away haul their cotton and other pro-1 duce here to sell it, and it pays them i to rio so. for owiii?r to the preat advan- ' tages in shipping facilities they are enabled to get a better price for their produce, and etm boy goods much cheaper than they can in smaller to>vns nearer their homes. There was a very large crop of corn j "iaiVci'l tu this part of the Sutio this: year, but cotton iu ilie hilis was great- j ly injured by drought in ihe latter part of the summer. About two-thirds of a crop was made, and it has neatly! all been gathered and sold, but in the j low lands there is sttll an abundance! of cotton in the fields, and a* was the I case last vear much of it is likelv to' remain there until next spring before 1 it is gate red. i There are now two tides of emijrra- j tion pouring into Arkansas. Equine s bv the thousands are crossing over \ir < > ,wl U.r iiwlu ja auu iivgiuca u? LIJU ; carload from South Carolina. A large j party of the latter landed at Monti- j cello a few days a<ro, and I was in-: formed by a colored friend who caine j here from Columbia last winter that; quite a number of his race from that j section as well as from other parts of the State are expected to arrive here in ! the near future. Most of these negro emigrants arc settling alongthe Arkansas, the White and the Ouchita riv?*rs, and it is the very place for them. The soil along these rivers is very fertile. producing irom two to tnree tnousanci i pounds of cotton and from fifty to' seventy-five bushels of corn per acre; and while the negroes seem to enjoy I good health and flourish it is almost { impossible for a white man to live j there. In the spring of the vear these j lowlands are all overflowed, great quantities of fish are washed ashore and into sloughs, and not unfrequently a great many cattle arc drowned; and when the water goes down and the warm weather sets in there is such an offensive smell arising from the decaying animal and vegptable matter it is said that the man in the moon has to hold his nose when he passes over it. Then the white man that has ventured in there with the hope of making a fortune farming begins to shako, his skin turns yellow and he loses his energy, and unless he has a powerful constitution or m ;kes a hastv exit to the hills, his name is ''Dennis" and his days are numbered. Then let the negro comc?there is plenty of room for him. k. j. c. Fine Bluff, Ark., December 13, 1885. THE END OF GEX. TOOMBS. The Scene at the Deathbed of the Famous Georgian. {Special to the News and Courier.) Att avta TVwmhpr In ? At. rj r o'clock this evening Gen. Toombs closed his eventful career by death, which occurred at his home in Washington, Ga. Early in October while in Atlanta he lelt that death was upon hiui, and bidding farewell to his friends he told that he was going home to die. A couple of days later his mind was entirely dethroned, and he has ever since imagined that he was fighting over the battles which led to secession. His family gathered c.ose around him and waited upon his slightest wish. Last week a marked improvement was noticed in bim, so much so that hopes were entertained of his recovery. On Sunday night, how ever, lie suddenly reiupsea. jlm\ W. G. Mulligan, his physician, declared that the end was at hand. For two days he has been in a comatose condition, unable to lift a limb. His entire family of grandchildren were called around his bedside at live this evening and tearfully awaited the end, which Dr. Mulligan declared to be near. At six o'clock the doctor placed his ear to the General's heart. It was still. "He is dead," said the doctor. A special to the Constitution from j Washington, Ga., gives the following | account of the deathbed scene of Gen. j Toombs: The last time that any attempt was made to give him anything was this morniny. when Mr. H. O. Col ley attempted io moisten his throat with a wet towel, but the General was too weak 10 stand it. The last distinct words spoken were on Sunday night, when turning to Mr. II. O. Collev, his grandson-in-law, lie said, "Lend mc one hundred dollars." On Monday morning he attempted to sprak to his colored servant Kiiey, but his voice was so weak his words could not be caught. All to-day his room has been filled with his relatives and near friends watching by his side expecting every moment to see him breath his life away. Hour after hour passed by and he lay breathing weaker each moment unui just as me oiu ciock in fhc court-house tower struck out the hour of six, and at that very moment his soul took its flight. There were gathered around him Mr. Gabriel Toombs, his brother, Mr Henry Col! ley aud wife, Mr. Toombs DuBose, | Dudley DuBose, Miss Lulie DuBose, i Mrs. Hunter, Dr. Mulligan and Mi'. | S. R. Palmer. One or two of the [ relatives, a few moments before lie | died, went across the street to eat their ! supper, thinking the General would probably hold out till nine or ten o'clock, but before they had returned he was dead. His physicians say his death was perfectly painless His body now lies dressed for burial in the >VCH IUU1I1 U1 UlC Ulcllll UlUAUlIlg U1 Ili> dwelling. TIIK FUNERAL. Washington, Ga., December 17.? The funeral of General IJ??bcrt Toombs took place to-day in the M. E. Church, The whole town is in mourning.

General Toombs joined the M. E. j Church three years ago. His integrity I has never been questioned.
