It i* intitnated that General Hagood
wants to be Governor ajrain?tn^t in
some of bis friends are trying to gel
his consent that they may use his name.
When the Farmers' Convention shall
have been organized, the body should
be relieved of every man who will not
pledge himself not to run for any office
in 1886. Would that be too violent and
exhaustive a purge?
Me. Manning, Secretary of tho
Treasury, is seriously ill in Washington.
His physicians fear a stroke of
appoplexy, and hare advised him to .
take a rest, as they believe his sickness j
is the result of overwork. j
Mr. W. R. Roberts, the former J
president of the defunct bank of Au* I
justa,has been released on bail. He was
surrendered by his bondsmen to the
courts of New York on Tuesday, but
found other bondsmen and was released.
Messrs. Moody and Sankey have
arrived in Charleston and opened the
revival service in that city. The hall
fitted ap for the occasion is capable of
accommodating over 2,500 people, bnt
at their first meeting many were refused
entrance for want of standing
room.
It is thought that the Senate will

minority on Thursday, and Mr. Edmunds
announced that he would press
the Senate to a rote as early as could
be done.
Congressman Hemphill is warmly
congratulated upon his recent speech
on the silver question. He is opposed
to continued coinage. Mr. Hemphiil
wants only opportunity, to show that
the people of the Fifth District did a
very good thing when they sent him
to Washington. He is a man of fiue
parts, and he will grow in usefulness
and in eminence. j
Evebibody seems perfectly willing
for the Farmers'Convention. If that
body shall keep itself free from the
influence of demagogues and placehunters,
and shall confine its action to
its legitimate sphere, it may result iu
great good to the State. It may at
least be able to make to the people a
calm statement of the condition of
affairs, and suggest some measures
calculated to promote the advancement
of the farmers and, therefore, of all
other classes or our population.
Quite a seusation was produced in
the House ou Monday morning when
the chaplain devoted his opening prayer
to an invocation to God to rid the
land of gamesters, whether in cards,
chips, stocks, wheat, bncketshops
ortratferand to lead the people to know
that mone>"snaking other than by the j
sweat of the f&ecf is contrary to His j
laws. On motion of Mrl Lutterworth, j
of ?hio, seconded by Mr. Weaver, of;
Iowa, the prayer was ordered to be
inserted in the Record.
Mb. B. R. Tillman disclaims all
desire for pnblic office. Bat he ought
to be made to take one. He onght to
be sent to the Legislature, and be made
to sit there, nolens volens. Mr. Tillman
is the self-appointed leader of a
movement which he alleges has its
origin in all manner of evils in the
administration of oar state uovernment.
He ought to be made to "face
the music" in the Legislature, and
there, upon his official responsibility,
try t? corect the evils which he seems
to think so numerous and so patent, j
Col. D. Wtatt Aixex, one of the
leading agriculturists of our State, has
the following to say of the farmers'
movement in our State, which strikes
us at the most sensible view of the
situation: j
"I think it well the farmers should
meet in convention to make known
their grievances, bat let them do so in
calmness and with truthful facts before
them." After advisirig them to consider
the lien law, the assessment of
property far taxation and the agricultural
department, he says: "These
and many other topics peculiarly agricultural
are legitimate subjects for
investigation by farmers. At the same
time no other interest will be in the
least antagonized. For the fanner to
array himself against other classes
would be such folly that I do not suppose
such step would be tolerated in
anv of the conventions now soon to be
held."
. . The Greenville News says:
* "" Tie Newberry Herald and News
finds B. K. Tillinai. to be the successor
and conuterpart of McLane and Russell,
the Greenbackers. We detv the
Herald and News to indicate a single
point of resemblance between tlie
farmers' movement and the Greenback
movement,except that the alleged object
is the same- The first great difference
between the two movements is that the
Greenbackers were trying the wrong
way to do the right thing, while the
farmers' movement is doiug the right
thintr in the riffiifc wsv.
Oar recollection is that the McLane
crowd wanted to destroy the no-fence
law and the registration law, and to
tarn thisxgs upside down generally.
Was this trying to do the right thing
iu the wrong way? And does the
Greenville News mean that the Tillman
movement is designed to accomplish
the same results which would of ueces
sity hare come about had McLane
succeeded in getting the help he sought
from the Kadicsls?
The Senate Committee on the District
of Columbia has decided by a tie
rote, not to advise and consent to the
nomination of J. C. Matthews, celored,
of Albany, to be Recorder of Deeds
for the District of Columbia, and
Senator Blackbnrn was. ther^fm-P__
authorized to report the nomination
adversely. It is understood that the
rotes in favor of the confirmation were
cast by Messrs. Ingalls, Pike, Palmer
?5!8gSl*3g??w
Brown, and those in the negative by |
Messrs. Blackburn, Vance, Hawis and !
Riddleberger. The death of Mr. Mil- j
ler, of California, who wa9 a member
of the District committee, leaves the
committee with eight members, hence
the tie vote. The motion to report the
name favorably not receiving a majori
ty of the voses cast was lost. Senator !
Riddlebersrer, it will be noted, voted I
with the Democrats in the negativesome
evidence that that gentleman is,
very properly, trying to slacken his
allegiance to the Radical party.
The Texas strikers are going to
great lengths. They recently entered
the round house at Denison, and disabled
several locomotives. The crowd
numbered about one hundred and
fifty, and they were masked. In another
instance a train was run out by
non-union men. This fact being
brought to the attention of the Knights
of Labor, some of their nnmber took
possession of a locomotive, overtook
! the train, ran it on a side track, and
broughrboth engines back to the starting
noint. These are new and start
? o r' ? ?
ling features of labor strikers. Heretofore
the strikers have made some
pretense of keeping inside of the law.
I Their worst was done when they
! threatened or abused those who were
employed to take their places. And
for these acts they have generally been
arrested and punished under the law.
Recently, however, the strikers have
gone to outrageous lengths, in ufter
disregard of the rights of persons and
of property. Sach acts ought not to be
tolerated. Those who thus break the
law should be made to feel the power
of the law. The property of the "offending"
corporations should be protected
if it should even be necessary
to meet force with force. The strikers
should be taught, at whatever cost,
that while ^ is their right to abstain
from work just so long as they please,
if ?c olaA viorhf- Af AmnlftVPI'S to I1SP
, ?v -v 1 J
: theirownpropertvastheyplease. These
; acts of lawlessness are great blunders,
and they tend to produce the belief
that the leaders of the workingmen are
both fools and knaves. That the laborers
have, in too many instances,
grievances which cry out for redress,
cannot well be denied. But the sympathy
of all law-abiding people is
. likely to be altogether chilled by
| doings such as have recently been seen
i in the West. The laborers there seem
Mem to be their own worst enemies.
Our Daily Contemporary.
It is a matter of surprise to us tbat
' our esteemed contemporary the Hews
and Courier should be slipped up ou
so completely as it was 011 Saturday
last and by its own nagligence. Upon
the first page and the head of the first
column we find flaming head line,
"The Senate's Usurpation". Upon
the fourth page and the second edito!
rial we find the following head line,
; "The Downfall of Edmunds" Then
is it suprising that we should be sur:
prised when we see such iiiconsisteu- w
cies in the same issue of tbe.*?Pie
dailv? Would it not 1** T/ell for our
contemporary *>e on the lookout and
| make its editorials compare with its
i oifccr statements? We excuse it on
i the ground that the printers were short
j of copy. This emergency is only
; known to the editor and is almost exi
cusable on any grounds.
The Board of Equalization.
At the recent meeting of the County
i Board of Eoualization the Question of
| a redaction in oar assessment came np
| for consideration. From what we
I could gather we are of the opinion
i that they thought the assessment about
; right, provided other counties would
j raise their assessment. The injustice
did not consist so much in the fact that
our county was assessed too high, but
that others were assessed too low.
Owing to the depressed condition of
, the country and the failure of crops
I for a number of successive years the
i value of real estate in the county has
depreciated at least twenty.five per
cent., and from this fact the Board
thought that some reduction should
be made. A slight reduction was
| made but compared with the mar;
ket value of the land now, and
uuder the last assessment it was not
: reduced equal to the depreciation in
the value of real estate, and is now far
: above tiie general average throncrhont
i" - ? ? ? 0 - ?0
the State. The only remedy which
! presents itself to otir minds for the
; present injustice is to appeal to the
State Board. If Fairfield's assessment
is fonnd above the average determine
' first whether it is assessed too high or
: other counties too low. This fact once
determined it will be an easy matter
I to remedy the inequality. Either the
i u ? J J
I K3Ca?UICIJ1/ ui JL' tUlilClU call UC iCUUCCU
! or that of other counties raised as the
j case knight reqnire. An equalitv between
the different counties cannot be
adjusted by the action of the County
Board alone. For the moment one
couuty makes a reduction in its assess
ment others will make a similar reduction,
and it is possible that this cutting
might run to an extent where there
would be simply a nominal value
placed upon real estate, and as a consequence
a shortness both in State and
i county taxes.
An Important Decision,
One of the most important decisions
' delivered lately by the Supreme Court
ot our btate was that in toe case ?1
C. C. Kabcnicht vs. Rawles and Others.
It was an action brought to hold
hold the wife liable as saret)r on the
note of her husband. The original
Act of the Legislature giving to married
women the power to contract and
' h.-> with thrmirh fhov
i were ferine soles was anended b)T a
later Act of the Legislature, which
inserted in the Act the words, "^ts to
her separate estate
Under this Act the case was taken
to the Supreme Court to decide the
question whether she would be held
liable since the insertion of the above
words italicised. The decision of the
Court has just been made public, and
is to the effect that she cannot be bound
unless it appears from the inherent
SgggBggBggBggaBBWK^HHBI
nature of the contract or otherwise J
that the contract related to her 9epa
rate estate. Although it is stated in !
the instrument that she intends to bind
her estate it will not bind her unless
it i? made to appear from the contraet
itself that it related to her separate
estate. In concluding the case, the
Court says:
Hence, before a married woman can
be made liable for the breach of a contract
alleged to have been made by
her, it must be made to appear, either
from the inherent nature of the contract,
or otherwise, that the contract
was made in relation to or concerned !
her separate property. Even if she j
declares in express terms her intention j
to bind her separate estate, that alone i
will not be sufficient to render the I
contract valid, for the question is as to j
her power, which is to be determined
by the nature of the contract itself, I
and not as to her intention to bind the |
separate property. If, therefore, a
wife should sign a note as security for
her husband, or, indeed, for any other
person, and should declare iu the note
in express terms her intention to bind
her separate estate, t&at would not
make the contract valid as to her, onless
it was made to appear that the
contract, though executed by her as
surety, was designed to benefit hfer
separate property, or in some other
way relared to or concerned such
property.
This is an imuortant decision, and |
one which will affect materially the i
contracts of all married women, tak-1
in? from them almost entire y their
power to contract.
The I<ate John W. Evans.
The passing away of one of the
most worthy and useful members of a
community, causing a void that will
be a void through the endless ages, is
an event that deserves some note of
record. Such au event occurred on
the 20th February, alt., when our
friend and neighbor John W. Evans
died. He was in his sixty-third year,
having been born on the loth June,
1823. His long life was spent near the
spot of his birth, excepting the period
of the late war, daring which tryiug
ordeal he attested the sincerity of his
convictions by deeds in the presence of
danger. At home among his neighbors
in the days of peace he was the
friend and well-wisher of all, ever
readv. with wise counsels and a gen
erosity beyoud his means, to aid every
worthy enterprise. Zealous and loyal
in his friendships, he was admired and
respected by all; bnt he was rewarded
with a pecnliar attachment by those
who knew him best. His father, Mr.
Jos. Evans, was a brother of the Hon.
David Evans who once represented the
State in Congress. As his name suggests
he was also related to the Winn
family formerly of this county.
Mr. Evans was married to Mi?s
Mary M. Martin on the 26th January,
1847. His widow and five intellectual
r.nd affectionate daughters, the survivors
of seven children, lament his
death. He joined the Presbyterian
Church in 1848 or 1849, and for many
years was member at Lebanon.
Dur?3$f the last fifteen or eighteen
years his membership was at Salem, of
which church he was an elder for sereral
years and until his death. His
coarse in life was consisted with his
professions. In death he manifested
the calm intrepidity of a hero with a
conscience void of reproach.

THE STATE CAPITALThe
Municipal Content in the Democratic
Primary?The Work on the
State House?Other Matters of Interest.
Columbia, S. C., March 29.?This
being an election year it is perfectly
natural that the first shadow of the
coming evenrs should be noticed within J
the limits of the Capital of the State.
The city for the last two or three
weeks has been very ranch excited over
the election of mayor. A< a preliminary
to ihi* election a movement ?vas
on foot t?? change from the convention
plan to the primary system of making
nominations. The movement was set
on foot by the adherents ofone.of the
candidates, with the how that it would
? - ? - 1 ? 4.
oecorue popular auu mww uie vuw iu
their side. This move on the political
board, however, whs promptly met by
the opposing forces warmly espousing
the primary plan. This was the only
issue made or attempted to be made
and the conte?t become one ot persoual
merit and popularity. Mayer Rhett
was nominated- for a third term and
Col. Marshall by the men in favor of
iK/s nAn* H/iltfAM
Ucgtiillliig IUU ucw uuai. Jia> ui lmtvi
bronght into the contest a spotless
record as mayor, as a staunch Democrat
and a gallant soldier. Col. Marshall
came before the people as the
young man's candidate and an active'
worker in behalf of Democracy. In
the ward meetings the primary plaa
was adopted by overwhelming majorities,
and then the fun began in earnest.
As indicated by the action of the sporting
men it appeared that Marshall
would win and he was backed heavily
aft ttti ?t >n t*o aa K?r f
?ao tuv/ vr iiiuvi m i.uv * uw uj t.u^1fraternity
and not without good reason,
as he was supported by the young
members of the miltiary, "with whom
he is deservedly popular, as well as
having some of the most astute and
sagacious of the younger politicians to
assist him in the management of the
canvass. Coi. Rkett was supported by
the older and more substantial citizens
who were unwilling to turn out a true
and tried officer for no other reason
than that he had discharged the duties
of his office so well during a first term
that they had seen fit to elect him for a
second term, aud it was believed that
a respectable minority and perhaps a
majority of the voters were willing
that he should have the office for a
third term. The twenty-fifth was the
day appointed for the primary election.
The polls were opened at three p. m.
and the voting continned nntil nine
p. m. By eleven o'clock It was known
that Mayor Rhett's efficient administration
of municipal affairs had been
acknowledged aud rewarded by his
re-nomination tor the mayoralty of
Columbia by a majority of 103 votes.
There was much rejoicing in the Rhett
camp and tbe Marshall men accepted
the fortunes of war with becoming
grace. While there was prior to the
primary election a good deal of excitement,
the two elements in the political
caldron are gradually congealing, and
by the time of the State election they
will have solidified into a firm mass of
good Democratic matter from which
votes mav be carved.
Work on the Stale House is pro- j
gressiug, and it is believed that if the
millennium be postponed it will be
eventually completed. When completed
it will be a beautiful addition to
the city of Colnmbia.
The Court for Richland county convened
here on Monday of last week
aud the week was occupied in the trial
of criminals charged with the smaller
crimes and misdemeanors. Judge
Fraser on Saturday sentenced a number
of those who had been convicted
to the penitentiary. The sentences j
ranged trom a few months to ten year?.
The criminals were all colored, with
the exception of one white man.
The grand jury of Richland, in presenting
two white women fur living
shameless lives with negroes, has set
an example which, if followed by the
grand juries oi otner counties, wouia j
obviate the necessity of using; extra- i
judicial means for regulating such J
I matters. The experiment, simply as
! an experiment, is worth the trial.
Moody and Sankey, the great reviv
aiists, will hold forth in the city to-day
Tuesday and Wednesday. The Opera
House has been engaged for the meeting,
as it affords greater facilities than
other buildings in the city. %
Military circles were somewhat excited
by the sending of a challenge
from the Fichktnd Volunteers to the
Governor's Guards for a competitive
drill on inspection day, but up to date
I it has not been accepted, and probable
will not be accepted before next tail.

Toasting the Town.
The following is the response made
by President Lauderdale to tbe toast
"Winnsboro" on the occasion of the
late meeting of the Bachelors' Protective
Union:
Winnsboro is a good old town,
As all of yon do know,
Also a place of some renown?
I shall proceed to show.
We don't need the Belgian block?.
With which to pave our way,
; We can furnish all the rocks?
For which thev'll have to Dav.
Our quarries are celebrated
For the granite which they yield;
And will prove a source of weath
To the people of Fairfield.
The population is increasing,
I do not think I'm wrong,
I When I state the present number
At sixteen hundred strong.
Sometimes there is a failure
| To make some kinds of crops;
There's one that never misses?
The sort the cradle rocks.
Sc the numbers will not diminish
| That we do chance to meetJudging
from the baby carriages
We see upou the street.
Sinners we have amongst us;
! If they are left in the lurch
The excuse will not hold good,
That they could not go to church.
For we hare a goodly number,
I think either six or seven,
With their SDires nointinsr unward
To the Christians' heaven.
Every Sunday here are heard
The ringing of their chimes
Warning us all to prepare,
To dwell in other climes.
Of seats of learniug we cau boast
Of the oldest in the State,
Whose records bear honored names
That there did graduate.
Maniganlt in his rounds
With pleasure doth relate
That we have the finest Company
In this grand old State.
Of clubs and societies
"We have our full shareSome
of them are very old
And some are very rare.
The Masons and Odd Fellows
Are here as everywhere,
Who gain a tew new members
With the advent of each year.
We have dramatic clubs
And clubs for charity?
Farmers' clubs for politics,
And clubs who like a spree.
But of clubs that I have named;
The best 1 mention last?
May its popularity be as great
In the future as the past.
The sentiment that prevailed
Crystalized at length,
And found that organization
Added to our strength.
Then give three cheers for the B. F. U.
as we surround tins lease?
Although ihe Ia."t to organi7.e
"We can't be culled the least.
Let us hurrah fur our society?
Hurrah in our rairiti Then
let. us give three hurrahs
For the town tliat gave us birth.
"Whether we remain within her border
Or whether we are called to go,
We'll always be true to our order
And dear old Winnsboro.
