The Senate has promptly confirmed
nugn s. rnompsoii as assistant secretary
of the treasury, and he will enter
upon the duties of his office as soon as
practicable.
Ix commenting upon the appointment
of Governor Thompson to be
assistant secretary of the treasury, the
Philadelphia Times says it is the right
man in the right place.
Gen. Gordon, the favorite of most
>~South Carolinians in the snbernaiorial
f "
race in Georgia, lias already a majority
of the delegates to the State Convention,
which will insure his election by
an overwhelming vote. South Caro
j ^ina congratulates him upon his success.
In speaking of the make-up of the
new British Parliament, a cablegram :
to the New York Star savs: "The
*
probabilities seem to indicate that the
new Parliament will be pretty much
the same in its general composition as
the one that defeated Gladstone's home
rule bill, except that the Unionist element
may be a little stronger than in
the last Honse. England requires
another educational course on the i
home rule question before she quite !
comes up to Gladstone's standard." i
The Philadelphia Record says:

average earnings of window-glass ;
workers were S2.9G a day. Now, with j
a tariff duty averaging seventy per 1
cent., the wages aveage little if any i
mere than half this sum?$1.79 in !
1880. The two months shut down ;
each summer is invariably accompa- j
nied by threats of still further reduc-j
tions, and when workmen become too j
independent there is the menace of
imported labor to keep them in subjection.
Protection is a great thing in :
the window-glass business?for the
manufacturer.7'
A special telegram from Macon, ;
Ga., says:
The melancholy news reached this
city this morniug from Copse Hill,
Columbia county, that Paal H. Ilayne,
the South's beloved poet, lies at death's
door, with little or no chance of re-1
coverv. A lew weeks ago, while en- >
gaged" upon his laboi'S with his charac :
teristic energy and enthusiasm, he was i
suddenly prostrated by a fainting spell, j
Sallying somewhat, he, to quiet the
apprehension ot his family, made light
ot his illness. Bat it soon developed
that he was partially paralyzed, and
physicians were summoned, xnev decided
that his trouble arose from a clot'
of blood upon the brain and that no
hope of his recovery existed. Ke has
yet moments of consciousness, through j
which the grand faith and soul of the !
man still shine brightly.
Up until Tuesday night there was
no news of his death, but it was hardly j
thought he would live through the j
night.
1 ' ? -Oufi?i
JNezcs and Courier, in commenting;
upon the commission of crime in our ;
State ami the duties of jurymen selected
to try criminals, strikes the keynote
when it says:
There must be a more rigid and fearless
administration of the law against
crimes of violence, if this d>;rk stain j
of blood-guiltiness is ever to be re- i
moved from our people. It behooves
everv peace-loving, law-abiding ci; izen,
therefore, at all times, to counsel
peaceable methods of settling quarrels,
and to assert and enforce the law,
which is the organized sentiment of 1
society, whenever he is called upon to
rcpreseut it in the Courts.
The juror who lightly acquits a mar- ,
derer of his crime, becomes a partaker !
of that crime and shares the guiit of
the criminal whom he rescues from
deserved punishment. Every jury,;
therefore, in this plain and true view ;
or tueir rcspousiointy, is iriea wirn ;
the prisouer upon whom they sit in :
judgment,and there has been more than
one recent case in South Carolina,
. where the jnst and righteous sentiment
of a community has convicted the jury !
who have acquitted the criminal tried 1
before them. It is a solemn duty
which is devolved upon every member
of a jury, and he is solemnly sworn'
to discharge that duty strictly according
to his conscience. The failure to
keep his oath is itself a crime, the
character of which is none the less
serious, we may be assured, for hav- ;

Oar Coming Officials.
The News and Courier of a recent'
date, in speaking of the political outlook
in our State, says:
There are sinister rumors about
political combinations which have as i
their object the nomination of particii- i
lar persons as candidates for the prin- i
cipal State officers. The "you tickle
me, and I'll tickle yon" business is to
be played over again, and some people
are foolish enough to think that it can
be played successfully.
Now, we waut tne people to have as j
candidate for Governor this year a man j
in whom they can repose fall confi- j
dence, by reason of his character, his !
ability, his good record and his free- j
dom from entangling alliances. But a !
combination which contemplates the:
nomination of a group of four or five
candidates will be smashed as sure as |
fate, no matter what the individual j
merits of the candidates may be.
This is rather a critical time in South i
Carolina. The Democratic party is j
not on trial. It has been tried, and |
has not been found wanting. But j
there are Democrats and Democrats;
ind the people desire the kind of
Democrat that they like, and not the
sort of Democrat who merely likes
himself and is not beloved of the peo- !
pie.
It may not be possible, just now, to
say where the right candidates for the j
times are to be found; bat it is safe to
say that their names arc not inscribed
on any slate, and that they form no
part of any combination.
This is a critical period in the history
of our State, and it behooves our I
people to look well before they selcct
oar next standard-bearers. From the ;
depressed condition of our country
our people, as citizens, arc dissatisfied, j
and are looking around to find some
one in whom they can rely to safely j
guide the ship of state into a pert!
which in any event will secure them {
satisfaction as to the administration of i
our government. To do this prudence !
and wisdom must mark their dehbera- j

approaching convention will nominate
such men as will brinjr the entire State
into a happy uni/.on, and bring to our
people a degree of satisfaction a- to
the administration of our State government.
Attornej' General Miles.
It has been suggested, by more than
! one paper in the Stale, thai the renomination
of the Hon. Chas. liieh .
ardson Miles for the office of Att >rney
Genera! of the Slate would be but
a fair recognition of important services
faithfully rendered. During Mr.
i Miles'* incumbency, several important
matters have been in litigation. Among
these may be mentioned the ease involving
the validity of nearly two
millions of dollars of Ul?luc Ridge
Scrip"?an adverse decision in which
wa?i1/1 nA* tliA to '1
"WJV'U. Ii.nvwni.n.w*['?.?"??
great ileal of money, but have seriously
disturbed the finances of the State.
The success of Mr. Miles, in having
Jud<re Bond's decree reversed, was an
achievement which is one of the many
evidences of his strength as a lawyer.
The new railroad law has given rise
to some novel ami difficult questions?
all of which, under Mr. Miles's man!
agement, have been decided in favor of
tlie biate.
The Attorney General has likewise
rendered ctflcient service in various
cases brought to enforce the right of
the State to tlie phosphate royalty?a
matter of great importance to the tax:
payers.
There are now ponding in f he Supreme
Court of the United States cases
brought to test the validity of certain
bonds of this State, which our own
Supreme Court has declared invalid.
In these cases Mr. Miles appears for
the State, aud much depends upon a
onAAAc?cfnl -HnrKf rvr? ni? rvavf Tf ic nocr
ouvv/i,o?u? "6"L w" i"" v' *?**'* J
to understand what serious embarrassments
will result in the event of an
adverse decision.
These are some of the important
causes which Attorney General Miles
has been called on to manage for the
State, and his success has redounded
as well to the advantage of the people
as to the honor of the officer who has
served them so well.
As a counsellor, in which capacity
the Attorney General has perhaps the
most difficult part of his functions to
perform, Mr. Miles has shown exceptional
fitnesf for his place. He is an
able, learned, painstaking and laborif?nc
loXXTVAf
But it is not alone in the sphere of
official duty that Mr. Miles?s professional
services have been so honorably
discharged. On many occasions during
the rnle of the Republicans, questions
arose involving the rights of
those who had no hearing elsewhere
than in the Courts of the Slate. Here
Mr. Miles, mostly without any reward
but the consciousness of duty well
done, was in the forefront of the fight,
seeking to enforce the law in behalf
of those to whom the legislative and
executive departments of the State
were absolutely hostile.
To retain Mr. Miles in the office of
Attorney General wi^l bc.buLlu recognize
tlie lucrito iiiui lauurs ol* a man
who has always been as true as the
truest to the Stale, and whose recent
services give assurance of his fidelity
and efficiency in whatever line of duty
he mav be called upon to act.
GeneiaiJohn Kratton.
In several papers of the State General
John Brat ton has been suggested
as a suitable man lo receive the Democratic
nomination for Governor of
South Carolina. In this connection a
few words about the public career of
"' ov Tt.-Vinm if ic thnc nmnnSPfl to
?,?v, i r ?
honor may not be out of place.
After a career in the Confederate
army, which was conspicuous for
bravery, fidelity and efficiency, General
Bratton returned home, to take
his part in the endeavor to restore
the State, in some degree, to the prosperity
which had preceded the wreck
and ruin of the war. In 1SG5 he was
sent to the State Senate from Fairfield,
without opposition. Brief as was the
opportunity thus afforded?soon as did
ihA Fpdfn'al soldier with his bavonet
take possession of the government of
South Carolina?General Bratton impressed
his colleagues and his constituency
with his fitness for his trust.
In the trying period from the enforcement
of the Reconstruction measures
to the political revolution of 1S7G,
General Bratton was always at the
service of his people, in whatever
capacity he might do aaght that promised
relief from the burden of misrule,
robbery and outrage that made
South Carolina a? conspicuous for the
infamies done in her name as she had
once been for the greatness of her j
leaders and the purity of her government.
[n the movement resulting in
the assembling of the Taxpayers' Con
ventions, he lost no opportunity to
further the success of our oppressed
/?it??sancl>ir> n-5ir> Miv ill thp T-iv TTniAns
- -?-v j
the only means of slowly dragging!
themselves out of the condition in I
which the Radical party had placed !
them.
For scr'ices rendered in times such
as our people experienced from 18GS
to 1S7G there could oe neither reward
nor the hope of reward, save in tiie
consciousness of duty done under very
trying circurastanccs. Patriotism was
here subiected to its highest test,
without the incentives which make
ambitious men patriotic. The men
who were true to the State in those
times could expect neither public
honors nor popular plaudits. Silent
gratitude, even, seemed sometimes
wanting. The men who, like John j
Bratton, served South Carolina then, j
served her for Carolina's sake?not for ;
their own gain.
It is easy to understand that in the
disorganized state in which the white
people found themselves in 1S7G, after
every expedient had failed to bring
relief from the evils that beset them,
the reorganization of the Democratic
party was a difficult task. The work
of enlisting the good people of Fairfield
in a contest that promised little
else than difficulty, danger and defeat,
was no easy one. That duty was as
signed to John Bratton. The fruit of
his labors?ably assisted at ali times
by the County Executive Committee
and backed at last by all the good people
of Fairfield- -was seen in perhaps
the most effective political organization
that has e * existed in South
Carolina. That organization was built
up on a sentiment--that sentiment
j which makes "duty the sublimest word
in the English language", and which
could only be called forth by one in
: whose sense of duty, whose fidelity to
| theni, the people had the fuliest trust.

Bratto:i was likewise a member ot the
State Executive Committee?where
his character and his ability were
recognized bv those upon whom devolved
the duty of conducting a political
contest, the like of which was
never known in Ihis country,
i In 1880, Geueral Bratton was called
; to tli'i chairmanship of thr State Execn|
tive Committee, to take charge of a
j campaign which promised to be a
troublesome one. It was conceived
: that there were some grounds to an
| prebend a break in the front which our
! people had lately presented to the
; eueinv, and that John Bratton was the
man to avoid a breach if possible and
to heal it if made. The success of that
i campaign, and the support he had
: from all the Democracy of the State,
: showed that those who had called him
; to the past knew the man they had
choscn.
In December, 1880, General Bratton
| was, without any solicitation on his
nort 1?\* thr? T.po-isl.ifnrn to tli#?
I 1 , ? e
important post of Comptroller General
of the State. It is needless to say taat
be filled that office in a manner alto!
gether creditable.
In 1SS4, General Bratton was sng:
gested by good mcd in various parts
i of the State for the office of Governor.
! The State Convention passed no judg!
ment on his merits. A third man
| was, by a majority of the delegates,
; thought to be desirable, and the choice
j was so made.
In 1SS4, the vacancy in the repre
sentation 01 toe u ourtn .uistrict, occasioned
by the death of the lamented
Evins, was filled by the nomination
and election of General Bratton for
the unexpired term. We have it from
those who know, that he was long
enough in Washington to impress himself
there as one ef the soundest and
strongest men that have represented
South Carolina in the councils of the
nation.
General Bratton's record, in all the
| places to which the confidence of his
people has called him from the quiet
labors of his farm here in Fairfield, is
that Qf a man who has known 110 rule
of conduct but that which coines of
sound judgment, keen sense of duty,
and an absolutely unselfish devotion
to the people who have trusted him.
Never an office-seeker, he has held
; office only at the call of the people.
| Nothing of a politician, he has en;
gaged in politics by way of service to
his people.

the more easily be imagined when we
I say (on Mr. Streeter's authority) thai
even the Kohinoor has faults from the
connoisseur's point of view. This

Venetian named Hortensio Borgia "that

about 10G carats, and even now still
retains a vitreous luster. 'Asa rule, a
rough diamond loses 75 per cent, of
its' weight in cutting and polishing, if
it is to be turned out in the most effective
manner. It would be difficult to
describe with any minuteness the
technicalities of a diamond factory.
Sufficient it is to say that the operations,
though limited in scope, are of
the most delicate nature. It is often
necessary to split or cleave a stone,
whether'to divide it into smaller portions
or to cut off excresences which
Hp tr>thftannroved contour.
if a stone has to be divided it is carefully
marked and split b a highly
tempered steel blade. If a stone has
to be cat it is placed in a matrix of
lead attached to a ferrule, which, on
cooling, holds the stone tight AnothI
or ferrule, and one diamond is ground
against the other, the tools being held
by the workman over a sim.ll oblong
bov, in which is placed a seivs, through
which the invaluable diamond dust is

process of polishing. Hour after hour

heated surfaces, now heating- the
matrix and turning another angle to
the top, which in its turn bccomes a
perfect facet. When the required
number of facets are put on the stone
is passed on the polisher. Now steam
power comes into play. Every polisher
sits before a disc revolving on a
steel splindletipped with lignum vitre,
at a rate of seventy-five miles an hour,
and resting on its smooth surface are
three or four clips; each holds a ferrule,
at the end of which is the matrix,
in which the diamond has again oeen
embedded. By an adjusting screw the
facet, which is being polished, rests at
a certain angle on the lubricated disc,
and every few minutes each one is
lifted oil'and examined, in order to see
whether it "is nearly done," or "how
it is getting on." To each man is
delivered a diamond or a number of
diamonds in a small paper parcel, and
for these he is responsible.
