Augusta Chronicle: If the next House is not controlled by the Democrats the cause will be found nearer Washington than the receptions to Jeffersou Davis in the South. The fish commission has ordered a fish car to bouth Carolina with 1,doo,? 000 shad for Broad and Saluda rivers. At this rate our streams will soon be etocked with excellent fish. It has been stated that Gen. John B. Gordon will enter the race for Governor of Georgia. Should he decide to do so the people of Georgia could find no better man for whom to cast their votes. The Sautherm Baptist Convention is now in session at Montgomery* Alabama. The total number of delegates is 600. Questions of importance nolofiniflhx f'nof nf fliA phnifiOM I Vib?ViU^|iV tliwt WUJ Vi VIIV/ VIM4<7VIWt> Church, will be discussed in the Convention. The Senate on Thursday confirmed the nominations of the three collectors for South Carolina, and the nomination of L. F. Youman to be Distiict Attorney for the District of South Carolina, nothwitstanding the opposition of Mr. Edmunds. It is now stated that Congress will adjourn early in July. For the past five months they have been in session, but show us very little work done for the general public as a result. Far too much time is'consumed, we think, in flights of oratory by tho members and not quite enough in real work. The Virginia Court of Appeals has affirmed the decision of the lower Court. in the case of the Commonwealth vs. T. J. Cluverius for the murder of Fannie Lillian Madison, and unless executive clemency interferes, it is very probable that the defendant will pay the penalty of his crime upon the gallows. The Chatham Artillery, of Savannah, opened their centenuial celebration on Tuesday. It was a gala day for the city. Six thousand troops were iu line, and the city was crowded with visitors. Ex-President Jefferson Davis addressed the crowd on Tuesday, and was received with the wildest euthusiam. Our citizens delight to honor the Ex-President, and will continue to do so for ages to come. r _ r> i * . <? _ /* .1 rns. rowDtBLYj caiei omcer or ine Knights of Labor, denies the report that there will be a general strike on the 1st June for eight hours. He says that the public will have to be educated before any successful effort can be made for reduction of a day's work to eight hours, but that it will come sooner or later, and that when it does it will be better for the employers as well as the laborers. Mr. J. A. M., of the Keics and Courier, has been throwing hot shot into the managers of the Savannah centennial celebration for their treatment of the reporters of the press. From his statement their treatmenc must have been very bad and unheard of in a public celebration of that kind. As a general rule their wants are supplied more promptly than that of any other class, and we are at a loss to assign a reason for their neglect by tbe people of Savannah. A serious riot occurred at tne McCormick Reaper works in Chicago on Monday. Six thousand men riddled the works with aii kinds of missiles. The police force promptly gathered and fired into the crowd, wounding a good many of the strikers. There seems to be a general dissatisfaction among the laboring men, and something should be (lone to prevent ihe wholesale destruction of lives and property. The Citadel "Dudes'' made a splendid show in Camp Wa?hin?ton ai Savannah. They were not permitted to enter the drill for any of the prizes but their drilling is said to have been very creditable ro themselves ami their corps of commanders. Mr. Davis expressed a desire to sec the South Carolina Cadets while in Savannah, at the same time saving that the institution always turned out the best of men. His wishes were gratified and the Cadets had the pleasure of shaking the hand of the Confederate Chief. We learn that Prof. R. M-.ans Davis, of the South Carolina College, will reply to the lengthy letter of the Hon. frenre<-e D. Tillman fr> tho frpp-trailf-re of South Carolina. It is evident from the letter of Mr. Tillman that he is far from being a free-trader. He retuses to discnss the matter before the people of South Carolina, and holds himself only responsible to his c mstituents? the people of the second district. He forgets that he is in a manner a representative of the entire people of the State. The papers are again agitating the matter of nominiuating candidates for Congress by primary elections. It is certain that the present mode of nominating by conventions is by no means acceptable to people, notwithstanding the fact that the results, as seen in our present members of Congress, are not altogether unsatisfactory. The principle underlying the primary system is certainly the correct one. The difficulty lies in its application to the choice of candidates for Congress. To go no further, if the plurality plan be followed, the chances are that the most populous county will choose the Con 1 rrroetmon n-bilp nnrlpr thf* mftinritv plan, a second primary would bo necessary, at much inconvenience to the voters. In that event, to-), the choice i wonld lie between the favorites of the ' two most populous counties. A good I middle ground will be found in the. I further enlargement of representation in the nominating conventions, and in ; the exercise of more care in selecting i c ! delegates. The New York Herald of a recent1 date shows to the Democratic party its duty in regard to tariff revision. In j commenting upon the Democratic platI form, it says: j That is a matter which Democrats j from Democratic States ought to think I of. If Pennsylvania and Ohio could be counted on to help elect the Democratic Presidental candidate in 1838, what the men of these two States now want, or think they want, might be entitled to consideration by Democrats. But these Pennsylvania and Ohio' Democrats assume to rule and overrule and defeat their party in Congress, i and then they go home and let their ; States in the Presidential election swellj the votes of the other side. Under i - * * -.t- - n ..i mesc circumstances uie remisvivaiua and Ohio Democrats ought to be a j little modest. A true seuse of their relations to their party would them, if ; they cannot support its measures in i Congress, at least to abstain from ' voting where there they do no agree, i The proposed action of the Demo- 1 crats in Congress has heretofore been defeated by men from States who give a solid electoral vote tor a Republican, and we think it is , high time some understanding was j reached whereby the will of the Detn- j ocrats from Democratio States should j be made the will of the paity. Mr. B. R. Tillman's allusion to the j Citadel Academy as a "dude factory" j 15 peiuups uwiuv <tim suiaii, uut n is altogether unsupported by facts, of i which &o wise a man as he ought not j to be ignorant. The ante-bellum grad- j uates of the State Military Academy i made good citizens and good soldiers. They were by no means "dudes," and Mr. B. R. Tillman, in his wisdom, ; ought to know it. No class has vet I graduated from the Citadel as re- j organized, and hence it is impossible i to say whether the outcome sha'.l con- i sist of "dudes'' or not. . Even Mr. I Tillman can't decide that matter as yet. ; But this much may be said?that the ; Citadel Academy is now a more ; thorough, practical and efficient school i man it nas ueea at any previous unit; in its history. We are among those who have: doubts of the necessity for the Citadel ! as a part of our public school system, j We rather incline to think that were the money spent upon it devoted to the South Carolina College, and the scholarships in the Citadel transferred to the College, more good might follow. But the Citadel is here. It is doing a good work. It is therefore best to give it a chance to carry on that work at least for a time longer. It is j certainly unjust, as well as childish, j to undertake to bring the institution into ridicule by calling it a "dude j IttUlUl > . I Toe New York Star thinks that the interest of the people of the United States in the enfranchisement of Ireland, though based exclusively 011 the spmpathy our people have always felt for her gallant and oppressed children, might well have a more practical foundation. Ireland, with her legislation iH her own hand?, and with the impetus to all enterprise which that condition would assure, would soon become a large customer ot ttie umtea states- tvnat sne is now a few facts will disclose. The exports to Scotland from the city of New York list year were in value over twentyone millions and a half dollars; to Ireland less than two millions. The little city of Leith, with a population of about G0,000 people, imported from New York double the value of all the i i importations which Ireland made. | Glasgow imported nine times as much as all Ireland. This was not simply a result of Ireland's poverty, for she paid in taxes to the imperial treasury last year nearly rorty millions or dollar?, j but because her commerce like her j I administration is enslaved and alien, j | With a home government adtninisterj ing her finances she would soon have, j as she had in 1790, a commerce of her ! own, and no country would profit by | that so much as the United States?and i | none would so deserve it. Wk ca'.l attention to the noticc pub- j i iished by Mr. T. S. IJrice, calling a j j mass meeting of farmers here on the! first Monday in Jam'. I his call is issued under the authority of the Faamers' Convention, and, as we understand it, is intended to perfect the 'organization ot' the fanners in this | county, as forming a part of the genj era! State organization. We trust I thai there will be a full meeting?much j larger than either of those held here previous to the Siate Convention. If this farmers' movement is to do any j good?if, indeed, it is to command the respect ot thinking peopie?it must be a general movement, and not the "uprising" of three or four dozen people in each county. Viewed simply j as an experiment, the scheme marked | out by Mr. Tillman, and approved by j the Farmers' Convention, cannot be ! well tried unless it be backed by the i great body of farmers. The sngges- j tions made by the Contention are most of them old, but they are none j the less worthy of a trial. To give ! them a fair trial the farmers in a body | j must approve them. If" these sugges-1 | tions are simplv Mr. Tillman's, or ; any other individual's, the Legislature i I may be pardoned if they give little i I heed to schemes which, while really j j promising many good result?, also j j nvolve a large increase in the expen- j ditures of the State. The responsibil-1 ity of making these changes ought to rest on tho*e who have urged them. And those who have suggested them? the State Convention?should be backed by the great body of farmers in South Carolina. For ourselves, we shall measure the peopWr belief in the justice of Mr. Tillman'- complaints, ! and their faith in the efficacy of his proposed remedies, by the extent and the character of the organizations to in |.aCrtAl?e?A fA fho rrtCA.

Tiie State Agricultural Department has furnished to the press a report of the condition of the crops of the State to the 1st May. The report of the department is condensed from over two hundred special reports from dif erent portions of the State, ana shows that notwithstanding the backward spring, the farmers are alive to their work. The lands as a general thing htjve been better prepared for the crops ami better fertilized, although the report shows a general decrease in the amount of commercial fertilil-' izers used. The small grain crop,! owing to the extreme cold winter is j not as promising as last year, and in : some portions of the State most of the I land was fitted upand planted in other J crops. The acreage in tobacco has ! increasad 43 per cent, over last year,: and considerable interest has been manifested in the crop. Experiments in its culture are being conducted by ; farmers selected by the department, aim uy many tuners 111 every county, and our people may expect a full report from them in the fall. Labor is reported better than usual. In concluding the report, they say that less supplies will be used during the year; le;-s commercial fertilizers have been used; stock is in good con-; ditioti and lands have been better prepared than usual. Upon the whole the report is very encouraging, and if good seasons are ' received, we may expert a good harvost. Gladstone and Home Rule. Mr. Justin McCarthv. in a cable gram lo the New York Herald, commencing upon Mr. Gladstone's home rule bill, says: Mr. Gladstone's measure will not pass this session?will not pass in any session in its present shape. But, all the same, Mr. Gladstone has already carried home rule. No Parliament will ever agaiu attempt to carry on the imperial business until it has settled the home rule question. Few indeed are the men who would now venture to get up in any public meeting and say they are opposed to all manner of home rule and don't believe it necessary to discuss the question. Only one year ago?less than one year ago? the parrot cry of nearly all the English newspapers was, English states men must never consent even to listen to argument on the question of home rule. For several years Gladstone was in favor of the "principle of home rule, but had always two great difficulties?lie was not quite satisfied that the majority, the real majority of the Irish people, were strongly in favor of home rule, and he had not seen what he considered a satisfactory plan to accomplish home rule. The'first difficulty was removed altogther by the late elections and the return of eightysix home rule members. The second difficulty Mr. Gladstone resolved by trying to devise a scheme himself. That"particular scheme may fail?in all probability will fail?but if it fails it will only be succeeded by a scheme I Detter, more comprenensive, mure (satisfactory, which will bs passed; maybe by Liberals, maybe by Tories, i but it w ill be passed. Gladstone will educate England as Parnell 1ms educated Gladstone. From the foregoing it would seem that Mr. Gladstone is far ahead of his colleagues in the matter of home rule for Ireland. He prefers to give it to the Irish people, while it can ^e done ! as a matter of right and justice, as seen by the English people, and not wait until Ireland gets in a position to successfully demand a home rule for herself, whether the English want 10 give it or not. As the bill now stands, home rule can be granted, and at the instance of the greatest English statesman. What will be the result of the bill no one can foretell, but though it be defeated this time, the effort will | again be made, and made until Ireland breathes the air of freedom. It must come sooner or later, and the only question to be solved is whether it shall be given freely, or shall England nroif nii*il TivkuH'i noeitmn ?a snp.h that she can demand it, and 3he be afraid lo refuse.

Annual Inspection of Troops?Farmers' . Convention?'The Church War?Other ! Matters of Interest. Columbia, S. C., May 2.?The past I week has been quite an eventful one j in the history of Columbia. The first I t event of interest was the inspection of' < the Columbia Battalion of the Palmetto j j Regiment by Gen. Manigault on the i < 27t!i April. The officers and men have j \ been busy for the last month in pre- ! 1 paring for this inspection. The Gov- * ernors Gutrds and the Richland Vol? y * - j. umeers snowcu uy ineir cinuiicm | drilling on the parade, the earnestness j of their efforts. The Guards turned | out forty-four officers and men?the ! Volunteers fifty-four. The Companies j were, for the occasion of the parade, j sub-divided, makingabatallion of four j companies. The Columbia artillery j, turned out twenty-four'men with two j( sections of artillery, and the Palmetto j Regiment Band, one of the fiuest mili- | tary bands in the State, in new and j handsome uniforms made a splendid J appearance. Col. J.Quitman Marshall j was in command. After the inspeo- j tion and parade, the Volunteers enter- I tained as their guests the Artillery and Guards at their armory. There was but one thins to be criticised in the appearance of the troops, and that j ; waa the want of uniformity in the dress | ] and equipments of the battalion. Uni- ' forinity ol time, movement,' dress and : equipments is the very essence of , beauty to the soldier's eye. Our State j has adopted 3 regulation uniform, and ' it should be worn. Another noticeable fact was the cadence of the step. In i Upton's tactics the cadence is one i hundred and ten in quick time, but a 1 recent order from army headquarters has changed this to a hundred and twenty in quick time. The Volunteers : have adopted this step, while the Guards retain the old step. The evil effect is very noticeable in Columbia. , As many of your readers aae not interested in military matters, a change of subject may not be inopportune. So taking the one step "from gav to *' >:?1- r.Y> I *?T;t| grave, lruiu liveiy sevtig . x nm give a few random impressions gathered from the Farmers' Convention. The history of this movement, f om its inception down to the present time, is familiar to all newspaper readers, and now that it has reached the culminating point the history of its end will soon be written, 'ihe whole State? the whole nation?I might say the whole world?is suffering from depression in all branches of business. The agricultural interest being the foundation stone it is natural that the weight of this accumulation of troubles should be most keenly felt by them. This movement was commenced for the purpose of removing this entire load of trouble. No man, it matters not what is his occupation, has < been able to divine the true cause, and explain satisfactorily to himself even the reasons for the troubles. The lawyers think the true reason is in the fact that the farmers are wrong in their agricultural system; the protectionists think it is due to the agitation of the tariff question; the free-traders think the whole trouble lies in the protectionists' doctrine; the merchants think that it is because the farmers won't work; and <he farmers think that it is because the lawyers, merchants, doctors and legislators have entered into an unholy alliance against them, and that the combination has been too strong for them, heuce they have risen in their might to throw off the burdens. They seem* to think tnat all that was necessary to be done was to assemble in convention and give vent "to windy suspirations of forced breath", pass long and tedious resolutions against everything "on the earth i ^ - ^ nn/lAn fiOl'i Jl" OMH I UlIU ill LUC WttlClOUUUCt uav/ vui bu , that then? "The troubles which infest the day, Would fold their tents like the Arabs and silently steal away." Beyond this rhey have done nothing which lias yet assumed, a tangible form. Whether or not they have set in motion occult and silent influences which may yet lead to something good or evil cannot now be foretold. The personnel of the Convention has been highly complimenied, and the conservatism of the body was j much more than was expected. They | very kindly decided nol to begin a war of extermination against the lawyers and will tolerate them as necessary evils. Nothing was said or tne various charges of corruption against the officials and the existence of a King in the Si ate. Doubtless because those who have hinted at such things were better aware of the falsity of the charge tlmu any others. A motion to invite the Governor to a seat on the floor and to address the meeting was voted dowu, as was also a motion to reconsider the vote while in temporary session. Having ( given expression to this little bit of ' malice and pitiable spite they became ashamed of themselves, as well they might, and endeavored to palliate the ' insult lo the Chief Executive by subsequently inviting him to address them. This simply shows how far men will go wnen tney aiiow metn j selves to be governed by their own j narrow minds and their illiberal pre- I judices instead of by the laws of reason and common courtesy. Tin-re was 110 reason why a Democratic 01 ov , ernor elected by Democratic votes should have been denied the empty ; ? honor of addressing an assembly of! intelligent Democrats. For some time past the member.- of j the Bethel A. M. E. Church have been I at war among themselves. There are i two factions in (he congregation, the | waters faction and the Wall faction.. | The matter has been before the court ! for some time. The Waters faction i ' got possession of the church and held [ it against all corners by the right of the j strong h:n I. Nightand day the church j was guarded by faithful sentinels. On Monday Judge Fraser granted an in- j junction in favor of Wall, and giving 1 him the right of possession until the matter could be fully adjudicated, and restraining the Waters crowd from . interfering with the church and the j worship of the other members. Saturday night Wall with his attorneys i and t he Sheriff, went to take possession j but the Waters men were entrenched in the Church behind oaken doors. The doors were broken open, aud as the panels gave way those coming in j were met by a volley from guns," pis- < tols aud other deadly weapons. Three K m^ll IYCIC 1 IIJ LI 1 C LI ?CIiUU3i#V.
